insert 161201: problem: the free e-mail place, disinfo.net, I was to use, is defunct, stopped, as of December 14, 2001. MY NEW E-MAIL ADDRESS IS: freud@themartianembassy.com

031001 2143 This section (page)(file) REFERS TO MY PAGE “THE MARTIAN EMBASSY.com” --- functions as if an administrative faculty to explain how the various other files are construed, presented, intended --- sort of like a catalog for the fantasy institute/university; in the sense of medieval guild colleges presented by a person like myself.

The following refers to a special item in the section "CULTURE BEARER" (18), and is recommended especially to those interested in "Auntenna" and "Nobelity Obligee", and very especially to those interested in "Charles Munch". --- Elf Sunday, June 22, 2003 7:20 pm Saturday, June 14, 2003 7:30 pm In my section "CULTURE BEARER" (18) I dissect a foul article about Charles Munch, and rumor-mongering based on that article. ( It is in that section that you will get my opinions about the article by Jeffrey Mehlman which appeared some months ago in the magazine "Salmagundi" put out by Skidmore College, and available via Skidmore (not web) --- also, I comment on the stupid essay by David Weininger (based on that article and comments in the Boston Globe newspaper) which appeared on WBUR and NPR and associated websites. )

BEST WISHES FOR EXPANDING YOUR MINDS WITH THE EDGAR POE INSTITUTE, UNDER THE AEGIS OF THE MARTIAN EMBASSY!!!!!!!!!!! (per (as of)(ajour) 23 09 01 16:59)

131001 1623 I am on the verge or cusp of about to go on line soon. I am feeling my way with a lot of help from my friends. I had naively expected to be anonymous, but have discovered that my name and address is available to all and sundry!!!!!!!!!!! Accordingly, so as to protect the whoever, i have trimmed my sails a bit, altho still hoping to survive my outrageous opinions etc. So some names have been left out, etc. I hope the wisdom is not lost, and yáll will keep your eyes on the ball, which is , of course, wisdom you can use yourself (rather than anything personal to me). I like the perspective of Mars, as it frees me from some inhibiting silly confrontations, such as “why do you care about the distant future?” or “no one pays attention anyway”. If one is bound to such cowardly inhibitions, one renders oneself useless in any political sense, and constitutes a menace to any friends who allow themselves to be infected by the depression. søndag 21. oktober 2001 20:08 With a perspective of future people looking back at us now, we can try to maintain some balance about e g Sept 11 --- we must not be thrown off course by crap terrorists: the whole point of leadership and citizenship is to prevent getting blown onto the rocks --- what is loosely called “destabilization”. The deaths of the victims are one consideration, but the failure of our (USA) legal system in the 2000 presidential election is a threat to our survival as USA.

torsdag 25. oktober 2001 19:38 YOU WILL NOTICE THAT I PLACE THOUGHTS IN VARIOUS SECTIONS TO OBTAIN A SENSE OF ROUNDED PERSPECTIVE, AND contrapuntal baroque formal exploration; the music of viewpoints from various peaks in the painted desert of mind. lørdag 27. oktober 2001 17:13 Due to foolishly unforeseen technical limitations, some of my page titles needed to be truncated in the prime list --- so on the list of pages, we now have The Edgar Poe Esthetics Institute. But once we have entered a page, the technical limitations no longer apply. other titles so affected: Prehistoric Monsters from Outer Space, Immediate Letters to Establishment, Unidentified Subconscious People. Another difficulty, altho only until May 2002 (or so)(hopefully) is that to send me your opinions etc, it is necessary to use e-mail (simply sending to me via my section called ³Incoming² is not connected yet). YOU WILL NOTICE ( I HOPE YOU WILL BE AMUSED RATHER THAN ANNOYED) THAT MY AUTOMATIC TYPE DATE AND CLOCK-TIME TELLER IS IN NORWEGIAN.

søndag 18. november 2001 20:04 days of week in Norwegian: Mandag, Tirsdag, Onsdag, Torsdag, Fredag, Lørdag, Søndag. The months are quite obvious. by the way, Norwegian has 3 ³extra² letters: Å, Ø, Æ (åøæ). aha--- In Norwegian the days of the week are NOT capitalized!!! OBS: (meaning, something is wrong, or watch out)(in Norwegian) the keyboard I used has Norwegian letters, but the computer did not recognize them, so thats why you got that gobldeguk. so good luck in finding them elsewhere in some...

Certain pages will be updated regularly, some spasmodically with frequency dependant on inspiration and availability of computers. A) Here is a chart of when each section has most recently been updated: B) And here is a chart listing which titles were updated most recently: And here is a map to lead you around the underground dungeons and dragons to where I have been incarcerated for my own good and the good of others: The above-mentioned lists were taken from me when they took away the map I mentioned. This message is transmitted by spoons I pretend to use solely to amuse myself. (updates start after 171101)(dates are in Scandinavian system: day,month,year) WARNING: I am NOT a perectionist.

161201 insert:problem: the following list of when updating info, is messy due to my ignorance of computer code, but will soon be corrected by my technical helpers, so as to be readable. I apologize.

04feb02 INSERT: Now, now, let us be realistic --- I have in fact updated some sections recently --- today is 04FEB02; It seems that almost no-one has so far looked at my site, so I am not going to be so silly as to try to list updating yet. I hope you treat this site as like dungeons and dragons so far and look around the nooks and crannies. I suppose that when my technical adviser returns from Asia, he will coerce me into more systematic conduct. Anyway, for starters, try: Auntenna, Hugh Moore, Munchausen, Window of Opportunity, Charles Munch. And that is merely for starters. Who knows what my Genius will suddenly throw onto this site?! Is there life on Earth?????

to jason catlett at junkbusters.com 310102 20:14 Hi --- I have a website themartianembassy.com, and my son-in-law showed me your excellent testimony to House of Representatives July 12, 2001. I am perfectly innocent as regards spam, and would appreciate a note from you, for me to put in my site, clarifying that you intend no reference to my site (indeed, not yet up then) by your repeated use as example of spam, of the domain name Martian embassy. And welcome to my site, which I hope you will find congenial. Thanx and Best Wishes, Elf. Oslo, Norway. e-mail: marconi@themartianembassy.com. 20:20.

answer : Date: Thu, 31 Jan 2002 17:04:24 -0500 (EST) From: catlett@junkbusters.com (Jason Catlett) Hello Elf,

I think that anyone looking at our published text would find that we nowhere refered to themartianembassy.com, nor martianembassy.com nor indeed any domain name involving Mars. We referred to the phrase "the Martian Embassy." Any extrapolation from that phrase to the domain name was not ours.

best regards

Jason Catlett Junkbusters Corp.

170602 23:42 or mandag 17. juni 2002 11:42 pm Hello again: At last I am coordinating with my technical adviser who has returned from Asia, and what with delays due to my old server and my changing servers, and my buying a new used Apple with more power and an 18 inch screen, not yet installed in my home, but I want to get back to writing to yáll anyway, and get myself basck into the swing of doing so.

THANK YOU FOR YOUR PATIENCE!!!!!

---------------------------------------

I have several many numerous notes on sound tape, brief mnemonics hopefully successful in my upcoming attempts to use them; plus manyseveralnumerous written sotospeak onto an Apple, which i hope will feed my memory properly so I do not lose my great thoughts. But anyway, as Beedthoven´s music is acgualy his failure to rememberHaydn...

I am torn between ewanting to help some learn the American Lasnguage better, and stylistic bravado wanting me to leave as is my wrong spellings so we can share the leasure of mess...

-----------------------

Shall I tell you about the crazy doctor first (both of them?), or something plitical?

Of course I do not want to dig rtight in to my notes today. And you see how this typebpoard is set up wiyth erotrs adjacent.

also this obne needs pressure to make capital letter so i end up with small i for I.

I do not suppose i will dare to continue to write trhis sloppy way, never frear,.

------------------- ------------------------

180602 00:17 I have in the meantime set up some sections that are not given their own place (yet?) on my website, but are or will be separate topices, e g, (I assume you all know that e g means for example) “Grand-daughter”. I may not get to instituting them separately on the website for some time, so I am påutting some of them at least for now inside actual website sections, e g, Grand-daughter” into “Other People”. I will of course keep you posted about this stuff here in The Edgar Poe Institute.

-------------

§ I am getting a new domain, “VIGILAUNTIES”. It is to emphasize the necessarily more aggressive stances in support of the liberation of female people world-wide, and this within the perspective of avoiding conflicts associated with the ages-old war between the sexes.

As a great philosopher, and with some bitter experiences myself, I offer suggestions as to basic points of view which I consider necessary to clarify attitudes as to territorial behavior between the sexes.

The number three is primary in all of this. Each child has two genetic parents. The potentiality of being genetic parents must (for a properly reasonable society) guide inter-gender conduct. This is necessarily the starting point for all excursions of power among females and males.

When I look at history, I note examples of foolish conflict resulting in subjection of one gender or another in ways often invisible to ordinary scrutiny. We see even the bizarre perversity of women tormenting women in order to maintain the status quo between the genders, and intra-gender to maintain the power structure felt to be safe. I am of course refering to subconscious structures of motivation ( e g, women doing what is euphemistically called “female circumcision” do not go about saying these things).

And then there is the horror of trans-generational plagues of sick behavior, in which a pattern of conduct is carried on for generations pointlessly. This is not only due to priesthoods getting dominance, but also simply to patterns of neurosis learned in childhood, or acquired in the other usual sick ways. This stuff is indeed what Freud is getting at in much of his work.

“Those who do not learn from history...” --- psychanalysis is a way to dissect the past in any and all dimensions (i e, the human past). Geologists look at layers to see the past of rocks and fossils etc. When I encounter absurdity in human behavior, I look to geology in that sense. We are no more aware of why we do what we do than are rocks --- unless I and the very few other geniuses delithify the archaeology of the present.

One of the problems of the recent era of what was euphemistically refered to as “Feminism”, was its intrinsic inherent hatred of men, combined with an urge to take over the brutish status of males. Inherent because due to transgenerational neurosis --- hating one´s grandfather on behalf of one´s grandmother and mother.

Women claimed insight while simultaneously bewailing their having for ages been deprived of education --- the education would have been flawed anyway, as feminists rightly emphasized, but still I see in feminist thought wide-spread lack of discernment and an inability (and reluctance) to distinguish among sundry claims made in the name of intellect.

Perhaps the main tragedy of all that has been the nonconception of children by supposed thinking people. It is as if there is a rule in evolution that those who are half-smart go to the wall.

Another prime crime of that era, but which cannot be pinned solely on the feminists, was the discarding of genetic fathers when they were outside the protection of marriage. This largely under the false flag called “The Best For The Child”. But what society could a child grow up into, which tossed aside fathers?!

But of course a cause of the throwing away of fathers was the insidious evil of male legal types who wanted simultaneously to be macho for the little lady, and keep her under their collective thumbs.

She (the little lady) was generaslly aware of that game and played it perforce willy nilly and with gusto.

We see in all that a pattern similar to that of “female circumcision”: what I call transactional (after Eric Berne etc) society as to sexual politics.

In a large perspective I note that we are here discussing a parallel to atomic physics --- the power of the subatomic particles called child, father, mother, etc is always exploited throughout history by the establishment in whatever guise.
