Cassiopaea Copyright Notice

[Laura]

From: http://www.cassiopaea.org/cass/copyright.htm

Arkadiusz and Laura Knight Jadczyk are the sole and exclusive owners of the Cassiopaean Material, Transcripts, Messages from Cassiopaea, consisting of experimental sessions in superluminal communication conducted by Laura Knight Jadczyk, formerly known as Laura Knight Martin, in her home, recorded by Laura Knight Jadczyk, transcribed by Laura Knight Jadczyk and Jan Rodemerk and others, and published by Arkadiusz and Laura Knight Jadczyk in printed form since 1994, and on the Internet since 1996, with properly affixed copyright notice.

As of the date of the first printed transcript, July of 1994, legal ownership was publicly established and valid copyright statement was made.

All rights are reserved.

This notice is a warning to all parties participating in copyright piracy of the Cassiopaean Transcripts obtained from the stolen CD of the transcripts obtained by Vincent Bridges via Fraud and Misrepresentation.

Mr. Bridges traveled to the State of Florida, falsely representing himself as a publisher with a legally registered publishing company. Under these (and other) false pretenses, he attempted to induce Ark and Laura to sign a publishing contract with his non-existing company. Based on this fraud, and discussions of future publishing of the transcripts, Ark and Laura were induced to provide him with a copy of the unedited transcripts on CD. This CD was clearly marked in indelible ink with our names. Mr. Bridges was instructed at that time to not share any of this material with anyone without our permission because privacy details of many individuals attending sessions and asking questions had not been removed. He was later instructed to return or destroy this CD. He did not. Vincent Bridges possession and use of our CD of the transcripts by illegal means, and his failure to return it upon our request, or destroy it and provide us with certification of destruction, constitutes theft. Anyone who participated in this activity with him may be considered to be accessories. Anyone who has a copy of these stolen transcripts has received stolen property.

Posting of the Cassiopaean Transcripts without permission from the owners constitutes not only infringement, but if they are obtained from the CD obtained fraudulently by Vincent Bridges, it is actionable in Federal Court as well as the courts of the State of Florida under the above terms.

Linking to websites which post pirated copies of the Cassiopaean Transcripts, downloading the pirated Cassiopaean Transcripts, constitutes infringement and theft.

Note: ("Frank Scott" is a pseudonym used by request of "Frank Scott" himself. For details of the dynamics of the early Cassiopaean Group, the reader may wish to read Thomas French's article, The Exorcist in Love, published in the St. Petersburg Times, February, 2000.)

Statement By Terry and Jan Rodemerk, long-time participants in the Cassiopaean Experiment:

Having been directly involved in the Cassiopaean Experiment for several years with Frank Scott and Laura we feel that we can make the following statements in very good faith.

1 - Frank Scott has no right to claim majority involvement in the C's material. He has no right to give anyone permission to use the material.

2 - Frank Scott did no work in transcribing transcripts, putting info into readable form, researching background on info or developing questions for the sessions based on either new topics or info from previous sessions. Frank Scott seldom asked any questions or on occasion asked only a very few questions.

3 - Frank Scott showed up when he felt like it. Usually after 10:30pm for any given session, sometimes not showing up at all. Being late and not showing up reflected his feeling of being the sole channel and that nothing could be done without him. We waited for him not because we needed him, but because we considered him a friend and part of the group. His lateness resulted in sessions lasting till the early hours of the morning, like 4am.

4 - Frank Scott is not the channel for the C's. Just because he thinks he is does not make it so. Many tests were made that confirm this statement.

5 - Frank Scott and Laura did not make contact with the C's; the C's made the contact because of Laura's life long quest for the truth about the human condition. Laura came up with the questions that the C's responded to.

6 - The C's made the contact. They are the sender. The group at each session are the receiver. The knowledge passed from 6th to 3rd Density is the true channel. For Frank Scott to say that he is the channel is the same as saying that Frank Scott is the author of all radio and TV programming because he has a radio and TV on which to receive them.

7 - The C's stated that they transmit through the Cass 'A' supernova RF signals that radiate through space towards the Earth. Does Frank Scott have the ability to do this?

8 - Laura has worked very hard on the material ever since the C's made contact. Laura organized and implemented the recording of the material. She owns the tapes. She pushed the stop and start button. Laura asked most of the questions. I (Terry) asked many questions. All answers are are recorded in Laura's voice. Frank Scott has done nothing. He showed very little interest in any part of it other than an interest in manipulating the entire group in various ways.

9 - Frank Scott accuses Laura of attempting to make money off the material. We are witnesses to the fact that Frank Scott was asked by Laura many times if Frank Scott had any ideas on how to get the material out to the public.

10 - Frank Scott only showed interest in the material if there was a way to make money off it. We are witnesses to the fact that Frank Scott, on numerous occasions, indicated his only interest in the material was monetary: he said that Laura should charge big money for people to read the material and that then she could pay him to show up and "channel."

11 - Frank Scott claims that Laura is building a cult around the material. That's a very strong statement. Can he back that up? We think not. It is libelous and defamatory.

12 - When Ark entered the picture, Frank Scott became more moody and sullen. Frank Scott tried very hard to prevent Laura from becoming involved with Ark. After Ark arrived in the US, Frank Scott basically disappeared from the picture. He showed up less and less often and didn't stay as long as he did before Ark arrived.

13 - As we see it, Frank Scott's issue with Laura is not about the material at all. It's about how badly Frank Scott can hurt Laura for having met and married Ark.

14 - Jan and Terry Rodemerk stand with Laura and Ark. Laura and Ark are two very good people trying hard to get the C's material out to the world. The material was sent by the C's to Laura. Since the C's created the material, then they should hold the copyrights. Since that is not really practical and the C's aren't all that interested in 3rd Density legal issues, we affirm that Laura is the sole holder of the copyrights to this work as she has done all the work on this project. Frank Scott contributed nothing more than sitting at the table just like everyone else at the sessions. Beyond that he contributed nothing at all.

15 - We are happy to call Laura and Ark our friends and are glad to have been a part of something special with them. Up until all this noise started, we considered Frank Scott our friend also. Now all we can say is how badly Frank Scott has disappointed us.

Terry and Jan Rodemerk

A personal statement concerning Frank Scott for public consideration from a long-time member of the Cassiopaean group who has always APPRECIATED the fact that Laura and Ark are careful to protect the privacy and trust of those attending the sessions.

I prefer to remain anonymous in my remarks to Frank Scott, (though he will know who I am), which I also wish to make public so that others will know the depth and extent of the shock and hurt that I, and other group members have felt, as a result of the actions of Frank Scott. His betrayal of the trust of Ark and Laura, his false claims regarding the Cassiopaean Material, and his alignment with those seeking to destroy two such fine people, is a nightmare for them and for those of us who have been long associated with them and who love them and have been uplifted by them in so many ways.

So it has come to this, huh "Frank?" While I may never get an answer from you to this question, I would so like to know: How do you justify yourself? Your actions do not demonstrate one glimmer of enlightened human behavior, much less human concord. Do you act with such disregard for others - their personal rights and privacy - do you unashamedly seek to destroy another person's life WORK, because your own being is so fraught with manipulation and discord? And, by life’s work I don’t just mean the mechanism that is the C’s material that has the potential to produce results, whether those results be material or ethereal, but also a the life work of another that has engendered personal growth.

Whether or not you can wrap yourself around this, understand, comprehend this, it is true: some of us are motivated to leave this existence evolutionarily advanced beyond the condition in which we arrived, to be better than this unmediated chaos you seem hell bent on perpetuating, just as has been perpetuated by countless self serving others of our so called “civilization.”

You have publicly and privately trashed those who trusted you, people who, at any moment right up to the recent past, would have and DID come to your defense, to care for and to support you, and to comfort you; something you so desperately seemed to need. And we see it was all a manipulation.

Frank Scott, you are the epitome of why trust in another human being is an almost impossible ideal and not a daily experience of personal joy.

I conjecture that your behavior is not because you don’t know the difference between right and wrong, between sound choices and poor choices. On the contrary, on many occasions I have heard you discuss the so-called tragedy and abuse of your childhood and adult life wherein you were more than capable of identifying an attack of one person on another as wrong and immoral, and most appropriately as despicably injurious. I personally understand about attack and oppression from my own experiences and because of this I have sought within myself to “lovingly” and “forgivingly” make some allowances for your acts of deceit, past and present. But in the end and in all truthfulness I can find only find shallow excuses for your heartless, mean-spirited behavior.

So you, Frank Scott, in my assessment, as one who has participated in more than a few sessions and other group activities, cannot be excused, personally or even legally, if that is the only recourse to your persistent false claims of ownership or authorship of the C’s material. You cannot be excused for the way you have manipulated the group members, the way you have violated their privacy, and the way you have misrepresented their participation to suit your own agenda. And ultimately -and more importantly - you cannot be excused for the false claim that the C’s material is a product of YOU, that YOU are responsible for the information and therefore in rightful ownership of the material. Your claims are blatantly and transparently egocentric, as if all the others who have participated in the effort and energy to bring this information to light are naught.

Knowing from long experience how motivated you are to acquire money and affluence, it is obvious that if you were the “definitive” channel of the C’s material as you claim to be, you’d be whipping out channeled pages from your rarefied corner of the Universe faster than one could say “Cha-Ching!” and claiming “you may call me Mister Scott.” The only problem is - a problem I don’t doubt you’ve faced much to your discomposure - those Cassiopaeans don’t talk to just any old dope, and they don’t confer with scam artists.

Frank Scott, you are an insult to each and every one of us, including all the many people who have never had the privilege to sit in on a session, who manage to glean enlightenment from the C’s material in the quest to achieve knowledge and promote personal growth.

I write this next statement with a fire and conviction that I doubt will transfer to paper, but please know that it is there: No one - not one single other person - ever involved in the work with the C’s material has “pushed the envelope” further, worked harder, put up with more “shit and shinola” (especially from you) as have Laura and Ark. They have worked their fingers to the bone practically night and day to facilitate a forum for those who know there is more to life than "life as we know it."

I find, as have many others, that the C’s material has meaningful implications for every single living and breathing, even-remotely-conscious entity in the universe, and that meaning is far greater than who you are as an individual, or whatever faction with which you are aligned.

The C’s material is greater than all of us as individuals. It is even greater than that. It is a compassionate message that we are not alone, that the truth, no matter how nontraditional or frightening, is indeed that which builds the knowledge that is the key to the fruition of our passionate search for unencumbered freedom... and, bless our souls, that we can and should be proud of being on the margins of the mainstream ideology that leaves so many cold, hungry, and bereft of substance, seeking meaning beyond what we have been told we must mean. I, for one, am indescribably grateful for having been introduced to Laura nearly ten years ago. I count myself lucky to have been a part of the sessions in the capacity that I was. I personally want no more than to be thankful for the C’s material.

At this point I am reminded of the proverbial lemmings who blindly tromp toward the edge of a deep cliff unaware they are on the verge of a great fall and destruction - so unconscious of the danger of their actions - belonging to the mainstream movement to what end they know not. A person of knowledge looks at the allegory of the lemming as representative of humanity being duped and led astray, and can discern that there is a lack of rationality in this blind faith march. A person of knowledge would have compassion for those lost in the deception.

But you are not like the allegorical lemmings you have scoffed at in the past, demonstrating your lack of empathy and altruism. You are not led astray. You are not ignorant, nor an innocent. You are awake, aware and acting of your own volition. No one but yourself has manifested this scenario that reveals your own lack of compassion and desire for all-encompassing importance and adulation. Not Laura, not Ark, not the C’s. No one but you is your own worst enemy.

I implore you to cease creating this chaos that is hurting so many, many people - creating, in effect, the very conditions and feelings about you and toward you that you so many times bemoaned as being "unfair" and "unkind." You are indeed, creating your own reality, and it is the very one you dreaded - rejection and contempt from others.

Frank Scott, did you ever think that people reacted to you negatively because of who and what you are? Did you ever think that we - the group - made a super-human effort to assist you in overcoming these negative traits and aspects? Did you ever really understand how much giving was offered to you, how many allowances were being made for your all-too-human failings, those failings that you claimed you did not have?

Did you ever, at any point in time, even remotely consider the fact that all of us were trying to HELP you by including you, by allowing you space, by tolerating your overblown ego, and by encouraging you to try to overcome the limitations of your narrow, egocentric world view? The fact is, as early as 1995, it became apparent to members of the group that you were not the "definitive" channel. In your absence, group members channeled without you. At that point, Laura realized you were not a necessary component of the channeling endeavor. But because of her caring, she didn't want to exclude you. She had greater feelings for you - It's called friendship.

Why, why, why Frank Scott? Why, when the door was left open right up to the last moment, did you choose to create such a reality for yourself? Did all our efforts to help you really and truly only feed that monstrous ego? Can you even conceive of the pain and suffering you are causing two of the finest people I have ever known? Can you conceive of the pain and suffering you are causing to those of us who gave you our time, our energy, our friendship, only to discover that we were just "food" for an ego?

And what's this about your reason for leaving the group? Because Laura described you as "androgynous?" What kind of reason is that, Frank Scott? After all, you spent years trying to convince all of us that this is exactly what you are? It sounds like an excuse - any excuse - and that is about the most pathetic excuse I have ever heard! Wasn't your agenda to play another manipulative control game, Frank Scott? It didn't work out quite the way you thought it would, did it?

Remember, Frank Scott, you walked away and QUIT. You declared that you wanted nothing further to do with any of it. You declared it by your words and actions.

For years, it appeared as though you didn't care about anything but "holding court" when the group met. And as if that wasn't enough, you showed up later and later to sessions with no regard for the fact that the rest of us had a life - children to get breakfast for in the morning for example - and other social activities besides hunkering down in a hovel to watch television and videos.

In hindsight, you never cared about the group members, the sessions, the C's or the material. You only wanted ATTENTION to bolster your hungry ego. Well, you have it now, Frank Scott. You have the attention of the thousands of readers who come to the C's site everyday. Undoubtedly, this is not the role you thought you were going to play, is it? And your ego was petted and soothed and fed, and because that is your weakness, you became a tool of those forces seeking to destroy the life and work of two of the kindest and most giving human beings I have ever had the privilege to know.

Do you even care about the stress and suffering of Laura and Ark and their family? For God's sake, Frank Scott, there are young children in their home, and your negative creation is adversely affecting them. Do you even care about the fact that your actions - and the actions of those with whom you have aligned yourself - those who are using you and your false claims as a "hammer," has caused significant hurt and harm to them? Do you even think about the suffering you are causing the one person - Laura - who defended you and protected you for YEARS, even when your actions and behavior were - in the opinions of others - indefensible? And I'm here to tell you I saw you for what you were - a manipulator - and told her so, pleading, even yelling at her to do something - anything - about it. Are you aware of how she fought for your place in the group - how she stood up for you? How, even after you so summarily dismissed the C's work, the group, and broke all connections, that she still kept the door open? She still clung to the hope that you would "find your way" and come back as a friend and fellow seeker? Right up to the moment when, out of the blue, with not a single word to her, not an indication that you were "unhappy" with anything - not even the courtesy of a single email saying "well, I'm unhappy with something and we need to talk about it," you just slammed her with betrayal and blackmail?

What's with that, Frank Scott? Is that really YOU? If it is, then you are everything I thought you to be - in a nutshell: despicable.

Did it ever occur to you, Frank Scott, that, considering the fact that Laura has only, in the past couple of years, begun to recover her health from many years of overwork and stress, that your actions might have literal, physical consequences? Did you ever think about your personal liability in THAT respect, Frank Scott?

I know you know what karma is. I gather you have little respect for that, as well.

Did you ever think about the fact that the work of the C's material is so much more than just getting some answers at the board? Did you ever think of the fact that what you are doing is attempting to destroy the one person who truly is the driving force behind the work, the C's, and the sharing with humanity? Did you ever think that maybe a whole lot of people would not take kindly to the fact that you are not only violating the privacy of the members of the group, that you are betraying the trust of a lot of people, but that you are literally attempting to deprive thousands, or even MILLIONS of people of the messages of hope and truth that the C's have entrusted in Laura. Her actions, her behavior, are exemplary and fully of a truly compassionate heart.

Where is YOUR compassion for other people, Frank Scott?

Laura has put herself out there in the line of fire that is public scrutiny, taking the lumps and bumps, and even virtual bullets, from her detractors even when it broke her heart time and time again. She did so because she believed the material was ultimately more important than her own comfort, just so others could find a place of solace in the sharing of like ideals.

Have you done one single thing other than align yourself with people whose intent and effort is to viciously malign her and the C's work? Have you produced a single compassionate word for ANYONE? Have you shared a single thought, a single experience that would help a single other human being? Have you ever done anything other than endlessly complaining about how no one appreciates you and your "superior spirituality?"

At the end of the day, at the end of life’s road we are all ultimately responsible for our own actions and will surely have to answer to ourselves for what we became in life. Give some concerted thought to what questions you will face in yourself at the end of your own days, your own life. Try some personal growth Frank Scott, it goes a long way in development of compassion and helps in maintaining meaningful relationships. We all trusted you to be capable of growth and sharing and making progress - just as we were striving for. It is now obvious to everyone that you are truly handicapped in that respect.

You know me, but because I value my privacy, I'll sign myself,

The Giant Pansy - figure it out, Frank Scott.

From another Cass group member to "Frank Scott"

April 22, 2002

Mr. Scott:

I have willingly and consciously entrusted Laura Knight-Jadczyk with information of a personal and private nature. I have extended no such trust to you, nor have I, in any manner implied such trust.

You have illegally and fraudulently extended permission to publish the Cassiopaean transcripts, which were solely and exclusively generated by Laura Knight-Jadczyk. Mrs. Knight-Jadczyk is the unquestionable sole and exclusive owner of these transcripts. You are aware of the fact that my name appears on the aforementioned Cassiopaean transcripts. You did not generate these transcripts and you do not have the legal right to possess, dispose of, nor extend any form of consents or permissions related to the use or publication of these transcripts where my name is mentioned.

By illegally extending permission for the publication of the Cassiopaean transcripts which contain my name, you have placed me and my family at risk of harm. Your illegal act, has violated my right to privacy and confidentiality, placing me and my family, in a position of vulnerability to stalking, harassment and inappropriate attention.

I am fully prepared to take any and all legal steps necessary to protect and ensure my right and that of my family to privacy, confidentiality and safety. I am providing you, by means of this letter, one opportunity, to publish a clear and concise retraction on any and all sites and locations where you have illegally granted permission for use and publication of the Cassiopaean transcripts which contain my name. Your retraction must clearly state that you have no legal right of ownership or authorship. This opportunity requires that you contact any and all individuals that you may have extended illegal permission to, in verbal or written form, for the utilization of the Cassiopaean transcripts which contain my name. I require that you clearly and concisely communicate to any and all individuals, that you had no legal right to extend such permission as you are not the author nor the owner of the transcripts. Otherwise, you will be held liable.

The provision of the opportunity I offer, begins with the date of this letter, the 22nd of April of 2002 at midnight and will be available for a period not to exceed seven days.

I strongly suggest that you give serious consideration to the content of this letter and to your course of action. Your illegal violation of my privacy makes you liable for damages.

Vincent Bridges'post to the Cassiopaea Guestbook regarding Theft of the Cass Transcripts

Background: In the late summer/early fall of 2000, Ark and Laura cancelled their proposed appearance at a "conference" organized by Vincent Bridges. (See: Retreat From Zaca) The reasons for cancellation were many, but were really not important since the cancellation was made over six weeks prior to the scheduled date of the conference. Cancelling attendance at a conference is not an unknown event in the world, happens all the time, and certainly poses no real problems. Most conference organizers simply get another speaker to fill the slot - sometimes with as little as a day's notice - and life goes on. No biggie. However, that is not how things work out with Vincent Bridges.

At the same time that the conference appearance was cancelled, a verbal publishing agreement between Ark and Laura andVincent Bridges was terminated. This was based on business considerations, primarily the fact that Bridges had failed to carry out his part of the agreement. It was only later that Ark and Laura discovered that Bridges did not even own a legally registered publishing company, as he had claimed which effectively amounted to fraud.

However, Vincent Bridges' response to Ark and Laura cancelling their appearance at his conference and terminating their publishing agreement with him was so extraordinarily abnormal that Ark and Laura were certain that they were witnessing the behavior of a psychotic. He not only began a campaign of public libel, but he undertook to violate their copyright and publish "bootleg" copies of unpublished material that was not supposed to be published until the real names of participants had been changed for privacy, as well as some identifying details. This material had been entrusted to Bridges by Ark and Laura when he was fraudulently posing as a "publisher."

Ark and Laura had sent Bridges a formal notice via registered mail, cancelling any publishing agreements and demanding return of the CD which contained the unpublished and confidential information.

The following post - one of many made almost daily for months - made to the guestbook on the Cassiopaea site is quite revealing in light of the later investigation into psychopathy. The reader should be aware that the notice to Bridges was sent from Ark and Laura's home address, an address that Bridges certainly had since a package sent from him had arrived - correctly addressed - some two days prior to the cancellation of the conference. Also, it should be mentioned that the Perseus Foundation address was posted on nearly every page of the website.

So, for the reader who has read the Bridges Report and the research on psychopaths, this post fromVincent Bridges (of which dozens of similar ones were received in a seemingly unending flow) will serve as an example of exactly the type of insults and threats Ark and Laura suffered daily for literally months on end before they finally decided to respond and produce and publish the Bridges Report.

Vincent Bridges wrote:

Dear Laura and Ark,

So, enough is not enough? The CD comes back marked addressee unknown (Could be my problem or the PO’s. Please give me the correct address for the Perseus Foundation, or shall I send it to your house? Don’t be put off by the fact that is registered and certified, I just want proof you received it. I don’t trust you not to lie about it later.) and your attackbots keep digging themselves, and you, in deeper. Enough is obviously not enough…

So let’s make it crystal clear…

If you believe I have cheated you, stolen from you, pirated your copyright, or whatever accusations the ouiji aliens have come up with now, get a lawyer and sue me. Sign for your mail and you will have a statement from me that should be of great value to your case, assuming of course you had one.

Now, since I am the kind of person you are not, and seem to have trouble imagining could exist, I would like to give you one last warning.

Take down every word about me on your website, by 8am Monday, December 10, 2001, or I will prosecute you to the fullest extent of the law for stalking via the internet as well as have my attorneys file an injunction to take my name off your website and sue you for the long and growing list of defamations, misrepresentations, breaches of contract, lies, harassment, invasion of privacy and anything else my lawyers in Tampa can come up with.

Don’t mistake my mild mannered attitude for weakness. It just takes a long time to get me angry. OK?

I am fully committed to having this stop now. You can keep your website, I don’t care what you write as long as it is not about me. But I will do whatever it takes, spend however much it costs, to have justice on this. I am not bluffing, I mean what I say.

I have already consulted the NPR Police Department, the Pasco County Sheriff’s office, the computer crimes division of the FDLE and the State Attorney for Pasco County. The consensus is that I have a legitimate complaint on several levels. I have also hired a local law firm in Tampa who will be filing an injunction and the subsequent legal actions.

So, to recap, just so you understand completely:

1) Get a lawyer and sue me if you think you have a case.
2) Get a lawyer anyway, ‘cause you’ll need one if you don’t:
3) Take every word about me down from your website by 8am Monday, December 10, 2001.

Please post your real Perseus Address on this list or matrioshka, or on Monday I’ll just send it to your house. Please sign for it, as Barry needs his check…

I will also no longer respond to anyone’s comments, although I will remain on this list to monitor the defamation level.

Thank you,

Vincent Bridges

He then later posted the following:

Just so everyone sees the point and we are not distracted by any attempt to make us focus on anything but the real issue, let me say it again:

I do not care about the Cassiopaeans. Laura and Ark can write and publish whatever they want. NO ONE IS THREATENING TO TAKE THE WEBSITE DOWN! OK?

I merely want the lies, defamations of my character by anonymous "sources" such as the ouiji aliens, slanderous innuendoes and openly admitted systematic harassment and invasion of privacy to stop. I want all mention of my name down from the website by tomorrow morning. Nothing more, and absolutely nothing less.

If that doesn't happen, I will go into court and get an injunction to have all mention of my name, articles, webpages and links about me taken down off the Cassiopaean site. It will be up to the judge what happens at that point.

And if they do not take it down and continue or allow people claiming to represent them to continue with their harassment, I will prosecute them under the Florida stalking law:

http://gsulaw.gsu.edu/lawand/papers/su98/cyberstalking/

"The Florida statute is much broader than the California credible threat model because of its two-tier approach[13]. The Florida statute is a two tiered model that does not require a credible threat for a stalking conviction, but does required a credible threat[14] or violation of a court order for aggravated stalking. The statute[15]defines stalking as willful, malicious, and repeated following or harassment[16]. Under the Florida statute, there is no reasonable person standard for the victim's fear. Thus, merely following or harassing may constitute criminal stalking even if the victim is unharmed. Under the Florida statute, stalking is a misdemeanor in the first degree and aggravated stalking is a felony of the third degree."

"While criminal protsecution may be the best alternative for protection from cyberstalking, it may be possible to bring a successful claim under civil tort claims."

As I said, I have already discussed this with the local law enforcement authorities. They seem to think I've got a complaint.

So, Laura, Ark, do us all a favor and just take it all down. Go on with whatever it is you need to do to save the world. I couldn't care less, as long as it doesn't involve me.

Thank you,

Vincent Bridges

Laura responded:

Mr. Bridges,

Just so YOU can get clear about what this is all REALLY about, let us state it one more time:

You have presented yourself, in public (on Laura Lee site, and elsewhere), as well as on an internet discussion group owned by us, in which there are over 200 members, as an "Expert" in government mind-programming and Satanic Ritual Abuse. You present yourself as an "expert" on many matters. With your "stories" and "credentials," you then began a process of inducing, persuading, or manipulating said individuals to believe that they were all potential candidates for having been Experimented on by the Government, or Ritually Abused by an expansive network of Satanists.

You then induced a number of individuals to pour out their personal life stories to you as the "expert," including intimate details of their sex lives. You attempted to persuade many of these individuals that they had been sexually abused by their parents or other close members of their families who, you claimed, were members of this world-wide network of Satanists.

As it happens, all of these claims are false.

After many of the above mentioned individuals began experiencing psychological stress and disturbances leading to debilitating physical effects, which often resulted in impairment of their ability to function both interpersonally, and in their jobs, they began writing to us to ask for verification of your background. Initial questions were not answered satisfactorily, and discrepancies were noted. Subsequently, we determined that it was necessary to inquire into your background for the purposes of determining the validity of your claims in order to satisfy the questions of the many people whose lives you were affecting negatively. Using Fraudulent Credentials to produce serious Harm, physical or psychological, is a crime.

Please remember our extensive file of your many emails describing in vivid detail how this or that person had "obviously" been subjected to this or that program, or had such severe sexual abuse that they were "beyond help." Please remember the extensive emails written to the group of 200 witnesses on these subjects, and your presentation of yourself as such an expert, and the way in which you induced fear and paranoia among this rather large group of people. All of these emails will be included in our response to any complaint you might make. For example, do you remember writing this to a member of the group:

Well, after going over your stuff, I hardly know what to say. There are so many red flags that it's hard to know which way to begin. Childhood- Well, there are reasons why you were huffing lighter fluid at 12. Can you remember anything else from these years?

You've mention sexual abuse, etc. do you have any memories?

As for your adult years, well, you were close to some very strange and evil people, and it looks like your ex, I hope, knew them well. Look up Matamoros and the cocaine connection and see what happened a few years later. It will give you new insight on your reptile rape.

As for treatment, well, I don't know. You need intensive therapy for the childhood trauma first, then it might be possible to explore further. Long distance, it's hard to know what to do. I would start with any remaining self-destructive or addictive behavior and then try to come to terms with what happened in childhood. If you were my client, we'd be looking at at least three years of intensive work, with luck and no fall out.

Sorry, V.

Please note, Mr. Bridges, you were telling a vulnerable person that "you need extensive therapy." You were also saying "If you were my client, we'd be looking at at least three years of intensive work..."

Do you think that this had no effect on this individual??? Do you think it was a "joke" to convince her that you were an expert so that she poured out to you the most private and personal details of her life, to which you responded "you need extensive therapy?"

And there were more. Shall we publicize ALL of them?

Please, Mr. Bridges, tell us it was not a joke. And if you say it was not a joke to pretend to be an expert on Mind Programming and Ritual Satanic abuse, and using such claims to attempt to produce what is called "False Memory Syndrome" in so many individuals, then what was it?

If it was a joke, it is a crime. If it was not a joke, it is a crime. And a very serious one, indeed.

You may be now saying that all of this was "novelization," or a "joke." I don't think that the law will think it is so funny. So please, file suit. We are anxious to file for discovery. We want to hear you say under oath that it was all a "joke." We want the court to hear how this "joke" affected other peoples minds, health, and lives in general. We want to produce the evidence of how you have harmed the lives of a significant number of individuals by your false claims of "expert status," and your manipulations of people's minds based on these false claims.

In short, YOU, Vincent Bridges used your claims as a "mind control expert" in order to manipulate a large group of people with obvious intent to do harm. You continue to try to further defraud others in this way.

Not only are you not an expert on anything, as the available evidence shows, you are an exposed fraud and liar. Yet you and your "gang" continue to stalk us and our discussion group, causing several members of said group to experience severe psychological stress resulting in physical symptoms and loss of ability to conduct their business and personal lives due to dealing with this cyber-stalking behavior. It is our belief, and the belief of many of our discussion group that you and your friends need to be thoroughly investigated by law enforcement agencies. Most of all, you need to be stopped from preying on the innocent.

You have also claimed ownership of a business, Aethyrea books, LLC, which does not exist as a registered corporation in the State of North Carolina. What is more, the county tax collector of Montgomery County, North Carolina has confirmed that there is NO currently active business of any kind registered to your name. You aren't paying your taxes, it seems.

However, based on this fraudulent claim to be a "publisher," to own an LLC, you fraudulently induced the owners of this website to agree to participate in a "conference" for the purpose of introducing books, published by your non-registered, illegal publishing outfit, at said conference. When it became evident that this was not going to transpire, and the owners of this website withdrew from the agreement, you began to publicly libel them and conduct actions of defamation of character. Part of these acts of libel and defamation include claims that you were going to sue for breach of contract. Mr. Bridges, there was no breach of contract if there was no contract, and there was no contract if you do not own a legally registered company as you presented. Another of your lies is exposed.

You further initially tried to avoid refunding the monies paid by members of the above said discusssion group, paid in advance for the conference, claiming that it was the responsibility of the presenters who had cancelled, i.e. Ark and Laura, to refund the monies. The exact figure is unknown to us, but is estimated to have been in excess of $5,000.00. You later claimed to have refunded ALL monies, but this has been proven to be untrue.

When the owners of this website responded to your acts of libel and defamation of character, you persisted in your actions, up to the present moment, which now includes filing malicious complaints against them with local law enforcement agencies, claiming that investigating your background via PUBLIC records is "stalking." Mr. Bridges, did you ever ask yourself WHY they are called "Public Records?" Because they are available to the PUBLIC to check up on people and find out if they are telling the truth.

You and your gang have threatened, libeled, stalked, defrauded, and damaged the owners of this website and their associates financially, psychologically, and in many other ways. Every defense (and let us emphasize "defense," as YOU started the issue by spamming over 150 people with your initial lies and fraudulent claims) made against your public attacks is met by you with escalation of your abuse and threats, many of which are delivered through your "followers."

We will also be forwarding to the authorities, along with emails like the one above where you are giving an "expert diagnosis" to a victim of your fraud, other emails such as the following:

I'll be returning the Cs transcripts along with the bill. I've finished mining it for insight. My next book, well under way, is The Pathology of Channeling and guess who the main character will be? Don't worry, I didn't use any of the transcripts themselves, "Who needs it?" as P&P said, just selections from the website. I did however use my personal experience of you and your "work" to draw some clinical conclusions. Who knows, maybe this is the book that will finally put channeling in the DSM where it belongs, right between Narcissism and Schizo-affective disorder...

And clear and obvious physical threats such as the following from your partner:

Subject: Channeled Lies

Why do you lie when you say that others have backed out of the conference. This is not true. Not one has backed out except you (thank God for that!!!) You are a liar which somehow doesn't surprise me. You are also lying about the entities no doubt. Thank you for all the great material you are giving me for my article that I am writing about you. Each one of your indescretions will be noted. I know what you are and I will tell the world who you are working for. All of your bullshit 6th and 7th density beings and you call yourself a Physicist. You couldn't get a job as a janitor. I am telling Vincent to do the right thing and sue your asses into the ground. He needs to let the boys who are running your show know that we will not be trifled with. You should be sued for slander and I am telling Jirka Rysavy to do it as your claims are without merit. You have shown yourselves to be the perfect dupes. And your information is so full of crap it hurts. That's why you don't lis! t your sessions chronologicaly. You are back dating material as you find out what is right and what isn't. You are a classic intelligence operation and I intend to wipe you out. I am not afraid of you at all. I know that the devil runs as fast as he can whenever he is confronted. It is time to lay to rest all of this alien BS, this channeled crap and all the other lies that the NWO wants us to believe. If you expect anyone to believe that using a Ouja board is not Satanism then you should be attempting to get that fool into your organization. I told Vincent who you were, I said that time would tell.

In this respect, the Perseus Foundation has done what Investigative Journalism does in similar cases. Investigating Fraud and Criminal activity is not only NOT against the law, it is, in fact, protection of Innocent Victims from Predators like you.

Laura

This spot was formerly occupied by an "open letter from Jay Weidner" written on December 15, 2001, approximately two weeks after Mr. Weidner became aware of Vincent Bridges "shady background" as a result of our investigative report. Mr. Weidner seemed to be sincerely anxious to "make amends" for having been manipulated by Bridges to think that we had "shafted" him in regards to the Zaca Lake conference. He was also apologizing for several vicious emails he had sent us which he stated had been as a result of being misinformed about the conference by Vincent Bridges. He also seemed to be sincerely interested in getting to the truth and assisting in revealing Vincent Bridges history of conning others so as to make the information available to others who might be similarly targeted by Bridges in the future.

Jay wrote to us telling us that he was under the impression that the event at Zaca Lake was "sponsored" by Ark and Laura in conjuction with Vincent Bridges - obviously, what Bridges wanted him to believe.

As we have stated elsewhere, Bridges presented this conference as a big affair for which he already had a large audience. It was only when we cancelled that he informed us that WE were the "main attraction" and that most of the attendees were being drawn from our readers. We then realized that we were being used to attract the attendees, that he really did not have a large audience already. In short, the whole affair took on the appearance of a con job for the purpose of making money using us.

Mr. Weidner then stated that he was so irate because he thought we had "screwed Zaca Lake Charity out of $8,000.00." We are uncertain as to how this was possible since we don't think that there were enough attendees signed up for the conference that, after deducting expenses, there would be eight grand left. Also, Vincent Bridges had clearly stated that any monies left over after expenses would accrue to himself, and he would see to it that we received an "honorarium." We didn't really expect any money from the conference since we were mostly doing it as a favor to Vincent to help him get his "publishing company" off the ground, which would have been advantageous to us as well, since he was going to publish our books.

Nevertheless, Mr. Weidner informed us that there was a charity involved, and that funds from the conference had been slated to go to this charity, and the figure was $8,000.00. Mr. Weidner continued his letter by informing us that Vincent Bridges claims about the book they wrote together were "out and out lies." He then informed us that Vincent Bridges owed him thousands of dollars since he financed their research trips. (The figure was later give as $3000.00) Mr. Weidner concluded his letter with a heartfelt plea to Vincent Bridges to "set his career, and life, back in order." He had the idea that this could be accomplished if Bridges would just apologize to everyone publicly for his misrepresentations.

Now, coming forward to the present: We have just received a letter from Mr. Weidner telling us that our posting of his letters has essentially served his purpose. He informs us that he has now entered into a legal agreement with Vincent Bridges that he finds "satisfactory to me [Jay Weidner]." He then states that Bridges has paid him back the $3,000.00 he owed, and that he has "apologized for his mistakes." Next, he tells us that the copyright problem has been straightened out as well as the ownership of Aethyrea Books.

This last issue relates to the fact that we discovered through the tax collector's office as well as the Secretary of State's office in North Carolina, that Vincent Bridges did not own a legally registered company and therefore, any of his representations as being a publisher were fraudulent and misleading. Jay Weidner later filed the corporation papers on Aethyrea Books LLC, and this was the first time that it had existed as a legal corporation.

At some later point, Vincent Bridges posted on the internet in numerous places that Ark and Laura had "blackmailed" Jay Weidner into writing the letters that we posted on our site at Jay's request. Jay then provided a letter declaring that Vincent was an "out and out liar." The fact is, Jay Weidner contacted us, not the other way around.

Several other letters were published by us, on behalf of Jay Weidner, in our ongoing effort to expose a serious internet predator who has a history of theft, lies and fraud. Mr. Weidner has now informed us that he wishes to just let the whole thing drop because he is satisfied; he got his money back, he got an apology, and "the many things said in those letters is no longer true."

As a certain member of the research team pointed out regarding such a position: "Since when does truth become 'no longer true?' Who decides, and who's truth was it in the first place? Does something become not true, which once was true?"

What concerns us here, of course, is that there is nothing in Mr. Weidner's attitude that suggests concern for other people Vincent Bridges has, or will con in the future. So, the bottom line is: even though Mr. Weidner has a price - and rather low, at that - I don't think that Mr. Bridges will be able to "persuade" any of the other contributors to the documentation of his fraudulent life to retract what they have said.

And so, at his request, we are removing Jay Weidner's letters.

Not long after the above exchange occurred on the Cassiopaea website forum, Mr. Bridges contacted "Frank Scott," a former member of the Cassiopaean Experiment and induced him to participate in his fraud and libel.

As chronicled in the introduction to the Experiment, Frank had left the group in 2000, though Laura continued to hold the door open for his return. His betrayal nearly killed her. Perhaps that was his intent, though we will never know. Laura thinks, in retrospect, that Frank was as taken in by Vincent Bridges as she had been and only realized too late exactly what he had been induced to do.

At present, based on posts he has written on internet discussion groups, Frank is of the opinion that Laura's references to him in the Adventures Series were an act of "revenge" against him, but he is entirely wrong in this respect.

Laura's careful analysis, supported by the observations of the other members of the experiment, was fair, exact and compassionate. To this day, Frank does not realize how much was offered to him that he threw away so casually for the manipulations of Vincent Bridges.

What is so astonishing to us here at the Quantum Future School is the fact that in both cases - Vincent Bridges and Frank Scott - their actions were, ultimately, self-destructive and life-denying. We are reminded of the passage in Cleckley's masterpiece on psychopathy, The Mask of Sanity:

The concept of an active death instinct postulated by Freud has been utilized by some to account for socially self-destructive reactions. I have never been able to discover in the writings of Freud or any of his followers real evidence to confirm this assumption.

In contrast, the familiar tendency to disintegrate, against which life evolves, may be regarded as fundamental and comparable to gravity. The climbing man or animal must use force and purpose to ascend or to maintain himself at a given height. To fall or slide downhill he need only cease his efforts and let go. Without assuming an intrinsic death instinct, it is possible to account for active withdrawal from positions at which adaptation is unsuccessful and stress too extreme.

Whether regression occurs primarily through something like gravity or through impulses more self-contained, the backward movement (or ebbing) is likely to prompt many sorts of secondary reactions, including behavior not adapted for ordinary human purposes but instead, for functioning in the other direction. The modes of such reactivity may vary, may fall into complex patterns, and may seek elaborate expression. [See Organic Portals for a theory that explains what Cleckley is trying to express here.]

In a movement (or gravitational drift) from levels where life is vigorous and full to those where it is less so, the tactics of withdrawal predominate.

People with all the outer mechanisms of adaptation intact might, one would think, regress more complexly than can those who react more simply. [...]

Withdrawal, or limitation of one's quest in living, appears in many forms.

The decision for taking such a step may be consciously voluntary, but it seems likely that many influences less clear and simple may also play a part. In the earliest years of human life a great deal of complicated shaping may occur, with adaptive changes to promote survival by an automatic refusal (inability) to risk one's feelings (response) in the greatest subjective adventures. In adult life such decisions sometimes emerge in clear deliberation.

The activity of the psychopath may seem in some respects to accomplish a kind of protracted and elaborate social and spiritual suicide. Perhaps the complex, sustained, and spectacular undoing of the self may be cherished by him. He seldom allows physical suicide to interrupt it.

Be it noted that such a person retains high intelligence and nearly all the outer mechanisms for carrying on the complicated activities of positive life. It is to be expected then that his function in the opposite (regressive) emotional direction might be more subtle than those of a less highly developed biologic entity. [...]

When complexly organized functions are devoted to aimless or inconsistent rebellion against the positive goals of life, perhaps they may enable the patient to woo failure and disintegration with similar elaborateness and subtlety. His conscious or outer functioning may at the same time maintain an imitation of life that is uniquely deceptive.

Perhaps the emptiness or superficiality of life without major goals or deep loyalties, or real love, would leave a person with high intelligence and other superior capacities so bored that he would eventually turn to hazardous, self-damaging, outlandish, antisocial, and even self-destructive exploits in order to find something fresh and stimulating in which to apply his relatively useless and unchallenged energies and talents. [...]

As Laura has commented: what great co-experimenters Bridges and Scott would have made... had they used their talents and brains for life and creativity.

I am a bit confused.

1) Is there something going on that I am missing, I mean, after all of this time,
why is this legalese being (re)posted? Seems that I have read this before on
the Cass websites (here and there), so is/did something come up that requires
repeating legal rights in order to further reinforce/protect Cassiopaea/SOTT/etc.?

2) Does this mean that the Cassiopaea.exe program found on the yahoo group
site is exempt because it is not the same thing as the `stolen Cassiopaea
Transcripts' mentioned in this thread?

Thanks!
Dan

No, nothing is going on, I'm just doing some housecleaning on the cass site and thought it would be a good idea to put this information on the forum for future reference.

Yes, the transcripts that we publish are edited for personal/private information.

 

[gdpetti]

Good, no emotional attachment left on that issue.
Now, if possible, I always wondered if that VB warned about in the earlier sessions is this same Vincent Bridges that has tried to lead astray early spiritual seekers of Truth? Is this another example of that name hint/sign the C's mentioned about the A named people?

I also wondered on this leading people astray. Yes, knowing a lie is worse than knowing nothing ( or something like that the C's said), but also the other C mention of these people needing these lies to learn from? For those with more potential to graduate would most likely either be following their hearts and stay away from these negative types... ie love and light as you mention in the past so much (vs Love and Light)... or they would be following their intellectual mind and would avoid these liars as the obvious distortions/distractions they are designed to be. Both would be seeking the Truth and recognize by feeling or thought the trap/test presented by VB types. They would know to seek the original source whenever possible and a simple search on the internet would present them with access to the real material in the real light. I wonder if those led astray need it or perhaps find their true innate path to STS? Didn't the C's say they would bring 'fame' of sorts though not quite as desired?

I do think it a good idea to put this on this publicly accessed portal for the information, so that a simple search here gives them the whole story so they can determine for themselves who is telling the truth. Perhaps a link here to the sessions would help too, especially if the more recent ones were added as well, as long as the search engine feature remained as I found that very useful.

Well, I am actually planning to put all the sessions in the forum here with my annotations. For some time now, I've been going back over them, in some cases where there were questions, listening to the tapes again, and correcting some of the minor errors that WILL creep in whenever you are dealing with a large body of text. In some cases, a question needs to be explained with the context in the background, and I want to get all that in so that there will be NO misunderstandings. Each session will have its own thread so that people can ask questions and make comments and I will do my best to answer. I think that only in this way, in a public forum, can the material be properly presented and analyzed.

But I've got a couple other fish to fry first, though I'll try to get started on this as soon as possible.

Yes, the transcripts that we publish are edited for personal/private information.

Dear Laura,

whether it means, that bloger can translate transcripts, use citations on own websites, of course, with © ?

Thank's.

Thank's.

We prefer that any translations be done either by our own translators, or that they be checked by our translators and approved before publishing. We have found that a lack of understanding of the material leads to an inability to accurately translate. And understanding of the material is best gained by networking within QFS.

 

[Juba]

I agree with Laura,

I noticed that in Croatian, Serbian and Bosnian hard copies versions (10-5 years ago) lot of things was done amateurish with numbers of mistakes (people were trying to get to any kind of C's translations even with use of pretty basic translating programs, and this twists material itself) I'm afraid they still circulates in rural parts of Ex-Yugoslavia.

It will be great to know it any of sites like:

_http://www.svjesnost.com/cass_skripte/

_http://www.galaksija.com/caneling.htm

_http://www.val.hr/index.php?option=com_sectionex&view=category&id=14&Itemid=109

have translations with your approvemet.


except:

http://quantumfuture.net/sr/kasiopejski_experiment.htm

as a logical choice

Thanks in advance.

This is very unfortunate and can lead to a lot of misunderstanding and misconceptions. We have found that the same issues and problems come up no matter what language the text is being translated into. This is why we have a translators' discussion group. They work in teams, translating and proof reading, so that no one person is putting a personal spin on anything. I am always available to them to answer questions and clarify, also. So, if you have an interest in preparing a good translation, perhaps you will want to join with this group?

I will be more than happy to help if I can:)

Hi,

First part of the transcripts I was read on yugoslav translations that I found on val.hr site, and although that translation is amateurish it had profound impact on me. At that time there was no translation of the rest of transcripts, and for that reason, second half of the transcripts I was read in english, and I think that is the best to read them in original, even after reading translation. For those people who do not know enough english (like myself) it is also good to read them in original, but with help of dictionary and some grammar. For me, that was good opportunity to learn English better, and I recommend that to all who have at least minimum knowledge of English language. Or so I think.
