But if the guys name is Euripite Sneed. That doesn't tell you a thing.
Jacque Fresco the J-A-C-Q-U-E doesn't stand for anything.
So if these letters stood for areas of interest, do you know what I mean?
Botany, chemistry, symbols;
new symbols, you'll have a new name: Symbol 34D, whatever it is. That will tell you what the person is
like instead of you saying, where do you come from? where were you born? what are your area's of
interest? Their name will tell you that. I'm an aeronautical engineer. You know what that means. I'm an
aerodynamysist, I'm a chemist. You know what that means. So if a guy comes up, says, I'm a chemist,
and I'm D4. That tells you a lot. If a guy says, well, I'm just a painter, and I paint whatever
I feel like painting, that doesn't tell you very much about the person. So I would say the names
of people will tell you all about them in the future. Otherwise, it becomes cumbersome. If you want to
manage the earth intelligently, you can't go on inventing Latin names for a flower that's three feet
long. No, guy feels good, because he composes it of Latin symbols. In medicine, they have that too.
You know. And also, remember, we speak in sentences because we have to take a breath. But if we had a turbo
lung, you know what that means? Where air came in all the time, you wouldn't have to speak in sentences.
Or write in sentences. because we run out of air so we can, and then we say something else, see?
You understand what I'm getting at?
So, I would say if there's any real advanced civilizations that can travel millions
of light years through space, they would have come to something like that. Instead of words being abrupt
they'd be [imitates consecutive speaking], like that, rather than, 'the man and the ship' that is because you have a tongue and
you cut, clip things. But the future of communication will be more like a song. I did want to say at
this time that birds don't sing. They make noises that we call songbirds. That's all projection, human
projection. They say you can collect bird songs, by the way, but birds don't sing, they're
not out there, singing away, they just make those sounds. Like my mother sees an ant and says he is going
home to feed its young,I say, how do you know that?How do you know it just didn't feed its young?
My mother used to project a lot into things. A lot of people do. Next question.
- Okay. Going back..
- Did I answer your question?
- Yeah, yeah.
- The riots will grow, prisons will grow, and prisoners will be executed more than typical, because they
can't feed them all. You understand? Or, they'll be slaves. They'll be leased out to corporate places
to work for nothing.
- Alright, my concern with the whole collapse thing is I think some people get uneasy and it will be
really, really bad, let's say, the riots are so bad, the fundamental systems go down, the electrical
grid, so on and so forth...
- Well the electrical grid supplies electrical energy for many different purposes.
There will be groups of people that will knock out one leg of
a main tower and it falls over, and power's out from L.A. to San Francisco.
Revolutionary types of the future will be intelligent people too.
So I'm saying revolutionaries pick up clothes, and anything.
But a guy with a machine gun today can hold back 25 revolutionaries.
As machine guns have a laser beam on you, and you press the button, you don't waste any bullets.
Because when you're aiming, that doesn't mean you're gonna hit the guy
but the laser beam is on the same line as your barrel.
So guns will become more effective.
Do you understand?
I'm not upholding this, I'm just telling you that a smaller army and navy can do a better job.
Now, if China, France, and North Korea become technically advanced
which is highly improbable, really technical, Japan is, if they become that, then they'll work on
computerized systems to jam military computers. Not build a lot of airplanes, and battle ships.
That's the old way. But if you jam military computers, they can't operate anything.
You don't need Armies, Navies, you understand what I'm talking about?
This is what the Pentagon ought to be now. All electronic jamming systems. Only, major.
And how to detect where its coming from.
And if a missile fires at another country, a portion of that
trajectory is measured, and the launching equipment follows that trajectory.
But if you can generate false trajectories, all that stuff,
you can do a hell of a lot of damage.
I don't know how far the Japanese will go.
I don't know if they are into robotics or into jamming systems.
The Japanese have a fear of what China might do, or what
North Korea might do. But I don't know whether the Japanese in control of the military know
what is essential to back. We don't know what is essential. Systems engineering would be essential.
But politicians wouldn't know that unless they have
a scientific advisory board, and a scientific advisory board
is as developed as a culture. You understand?
Conservative scientists seem to dominate in this kind of culture.
Radical scientists, according to, Goddard, you know who Goddard was?
The American rocket scientist. He said, he wrote, many times
that you don't talk about rockets in scientific circles.
You're looked upon as a radical. You know? Impractical, dreamer.
Do you understand?
He wrote that, and he always said that when I go to scientific circles, I can't talk about it.
Cause they ridicule me. So, is there such a thing as a scientist?
I don't believe so.
I believe there are people who are scientifically oriented by their culture up to
the limit of what their culture gives them.
If they were scientific, they would immediately ask about the culture,
how it operates. They don't even look at the highways, it is inefficient.
Their commercial products, highways, automobiles, what the
question is is, distribution of resources to people in the most efficient manner.
That is the problem. So obviously there is no such thing
as a scientist from my point of view.
You understand?
A scientist would not be engaged in particle behavior,
while the Earth is falling apart.
He would immediately turn his attention to protection of the environment
and when he said we don't have enough money to build
antibodies for all the known diseases, but do we
have enough resources, the guy says yeah, than what the
hell are you dealing with raising funds for?
Do you know what I mean?
That's why I say I can't conceive of a scientist today.
I don't say there are none, I haven't met any.
Have you?
Scientists that are social? That say the only problems
is the insufficiency of our social design. That's where
the problems are.
Now, I don't know if you understand what I'm saying.
Do you?
- Yeah
- Okay
- I'm leading up on something here; what I'm concerned about
is if there is a major collapse, and we have loss of
fundamental systems, wouldn't that be harder to create abundance?
and also.....
- You won't be able to create it.
- Right. So
- I don't know what the future will be
- Okay
- But I can say this, probably we'll kill each other.
But I can't live with that. So I speak out.
I don't say the future will be this
and people say, "How long from now do you see this
scientific world?" I don't know that.
That's not up to me.
If you put me in charge, I can tell you that.
But if they are in charge, how can I tell you that?
I can't tell you what the future will be. I can tell you
what the trends are, that is about all.
I can tell you what the future of computers will be,
if we don't kill each other.
But if we kill each other, there is no future.
If we poison the air, and the oceans, and if we use
artificial pumping into animals to make them grow faster,
you might lose your population due to diseases, cancers,
rapid multiplication of cells, so if you could multiply
the cells in a chicken faster, you can sell it sooner.
But does that have an effect on the human body?
They don't worry about that.
They worry about the sale of chickens.
But if they don't go far enough they'll kill themselves
due to ignorance. When I use the term ignorance
I don't mean they're stupid, I mean they just haven't been
taught what is essential. I've never met anyone that knew
what the hell was essential.
They use words like city planning. I don't know what the hell
that means, if it means there is a school in every district
or you have to drive to school, are there are more schools
in the residential district, upper middle class?
In other words, when they say all men are created equal,
that bothers me. I told you some are thin, some are heavy
some have better eye sight than others. I don't know what that means.
But, I think they're trying to talk about equal opportunity,
and I know that doesn't exist.
If you don't have the money to go to college, the words
'Equal Opportunities' mean nothing.
