People then ask 'why then fly over a city so low and slow'. Well, you see, we utilise your dreams.
You are our computational device par excellence.
Let me explain. The human being can do some thing no artificial intelligence (we can develop at this present time) can do; Dream.

Do you remember The Abraham Accord coin that was issued and the symbols on it? Take a look here and you can really zoom in:
www.temple-coins.com...
On September 15th 2020, President Donald J. Trump will host the signing of the “Abraham Accord,” a groundbreaking Middle East peace treaty effectively normalizing relations between Israel and the United Arab Emirates. In signing the accord, the United Arab Emirates (UAE) joined Egypt and Jordan as the only Arab nations to make peace with Israel. It may open a new era. Fellow Gulf nations Bahrain and Oman signalled their support, while Saudi Arabia did not oppose it.
The little symbol at the top of the coin on the back above the peace dove sure looks like an alien craft to me.

I didn't want to "stare" at it too long with my eyes closed because I was worried if I did I might fall back asleep and fall off the pot.
Boy you ain't right!lol....I'm teasing it made me laugh. I had 3 dreams in a row this week that were extremely vivid which is not my norm. I undertood what they were about which is also odd and two of them were violent. Let us know if you dream tonight plz.....I have been feeling some strangeness as well. I didn't when you started posting about something feeling off and I'm reasonably sure it wasn't a power of suggestion type thingy.

I never really explained why I thought the dream was weird, even though I was asked. Imagine the world is the three story theater. You can’t knock it down without everyone in the theater freaking out. But you could replace it a board at a time without anyone knowing. Of course any change would need to happen without anyone seeing and some might risk collapsing the whole structure. Now apply that to the movie we are all watching.

Caled's weirdness for today; I had an interesting dream last night. I was in a three story theater that was so old it was falling apart. The only way to repair it was to replace the wood a piece at a time, but any time you replaced a piece of wood you risked the entire structure coming down.
One particular phenomenon that has not only been talked about in science fiction, but also has been reported in real life, is the Stand Alone Complex. The science fiction series Ghost in the Shell talks about the idea of the Stand Alone Complex with the investigation of the Laughing Man case, a highly talented hacker that could actually hack into people's Cyberbrains and manipulate them. One interesting group has sprouted up on the internet, however, that bears many resemblances the Stand Alone Complex presented by the Laughing Man. If the Anonymous group follows the model of the Stand Alone Complex put forth by the characteristics of the Laughing Man case, then it could be said that the case of Anonymous could be called a Stand Alone Complex as well.
In order to compare these cases, we need to understand what a Stand Alone Complex is. The Stand Alone Complex can best be described as an occurrence caused when a trigger starts a series of events by individuals that all move towards a single goal. In each event, the individuals are otherwise unrelated, and not directly in any kind of communication, yet all of the actions are concerted, as if coordinated by a single entity. In the two cases described, however, there is no such proof that such an entity truly exists, yet all of the individuals attempt to copy its behavior, resulting in a seemingly planned series of events.
