Handicapping what I "know"

"Know" said facetiously, of course.

You sit there and stare at a page of acrostic and telestic letters in WD Gann's "The Tunnel Thru the Air" and you see "messages."  Obviously you see what you want to see.  But its a bit less biased than that.  The first "word" that jumps out at you sets your mind on a course.  Then you consider if the evolving message has a theme consistent with the narrative and other messages you've seen.  So its not all imagination or delusion.  There's a kernel of clear recognition from which a beginning is gotten.  The supposed writer of the veiled message would take advantage of that.

An example; the "three WMD" on page 284.  This is what I "saw" the first time I looked at the page after discovering the acrostic and telestic encoding:

"WMD," a term of our terrorist themed society, and "three." Pretty much stick out at you.  I couldn't make anything out of the page.  But I was biased.  Terror and a number of terror events.

Later on I wrote essays on Mr. Gann's curious use of the word "blast" in describing Robert's hopes "blasted in a moment" upon losing Marie.  And I discovered the encoding of "PGE" for Pacific Gas and Electric.  Ditto that for the all caps"AL" inverted for "LA."  Things start flowing together the more of The Tunnel's encodings are stored in your "attic."

My bias was being artfully "formed" towards the creation of a message that, while completely indefensible on its own merits, had context and corroboration found elsewhere.

You cannot know the parts without some knowledge of the whole.  As Gurdjieffe said and I paraphrase out of recal, 'you cannot know a thing without knowing what it is a part of, what is a part of it, what came before it, what came after it, what is above it and what is below it.'

So, the message above, given the conditioning in my study (as opposed to the 65 years of conditioning of the way I think) becomes:

"God may use three WMD's, tsunamis to blast LA California."

Look for the final warning of the Atlantis fire and then three natural events.

A message consistent with all the other messages, not inconsistent with any.  A message consistent with the first Allied Enemy campaign which is a decimation of the Pacific Coast.  It all hangs together.  Its not a "lock" but it is compelling to me in the context of all the other corroborative information I've discovered.

"LA" falls on the same line as "10/15" in red.  In the movie, "Knowing," the first disaster was October 15, about 15 1/2 hours after the newscast of a Gulf Oil disaster.

So, out of all that I've so derived and somewhat subjectively "handicapped" in my mind according to this very imperfect "triangulation" of messages within The Tunnel and from other sources referenced in The Tunnel (two contemporary movies), here's the odds as they stand in my mind:

About that subjectivity and not knowing the whole; I don't.  I have only clues dug out of now counting thousands of hours of research.  Mr. Gann knew, I don't.  All I can do is ferret out the clues and sum them up in the little hamster wheel in my head and add them up as best I can.

Obviously, the stock market will be destroyed, if not by the events of October 12-19, then finished by the events that will comprise the remainder of the first Allied Enemy campaign (Portland and Seattle) and the second and third campaigns (the New Madrid Seismic Zone and Yellowstone).  As WD Gann's office at 120 Liberty Street witnessed the destruction of the WTC to which it was near, if not, formally contiguous, then so will his offices at 82 Wall Street, next to Wall and Water Street, the proximate location of the first trades of the New York Stock Exchange, witness the destruction of the latter.  [Hint, read up on the history of the NYSE and its first trading at the Tontine Coffee House at Wall and Water.]  Judgement in the place of nativity.  And Mr. Gann's office at 82 Wall Street will again witness the destruction.

From time-to-time friends will pass along to me what the gurus are saying about the stock market.  Many gurus have caught onto the idea that things are going to get really bad.  In the vastly infrequent times I take a look at what they are saying, while they are coming to some vague view of the dire nature of impending events, they haven't a clue regarding the magnitude.  Hmm, most will say that about me.  The events of October 12-19 are of Biblical proportion.  No, better described, they are Biblical.  Worse, they will be only the first warning to all of us of worse events to occur thereafter.

I hope I am wrong about what Mr. Gann is saying because, if I were to fully 'know" his  message in its perfection, I don't believe he is wrong.
