About me
The presentation was basically just a rehash of information in the books. The rest was a logical extension of the information in the books. I read the books and had no difficulty doing so the information was not new to me. I figured out most of the information a long time ago already long before I read the books. In fact I expected to discover that. I know American society too well.
In the invitation letter it was noted that I am regarded as a nearly ideal candidate for the society. After reading your letters to me and the books, I can see why. I knew nearly everything in the books already and what I didn’t know was an obvious logical extension. In fact I found the books quite hard to read at times because they are so repetitive, the second and third ones. I know that is a useful pedagogical tool but if one knows it already it is very annoying and even tiring. I really had to work at it to get through all the repetition.
I figured out my Friday-Night Essences a long time ago. I have more than one. How I did so is a subject for another time. I have not had an ordinary life, certainly not an ordinary American one, and that is part of why I am useful to you. I am an immigrant. But I grew up in America in an immigrant community. The neighbors were American.
I did work in corporate America as an engineer for 15 years. At first I was ambivalent about the work environment, hated it by the time I left. Learned all about the stagnation you talk about. Vowed never to work for corporate America again. I ended up being able to afford to leave about the time I got laid off in a big layoff. I chose to get laid off instead of giving notice in order not to confuse the system. I was not wealthy but good enough to not have to work anymore. Got that way just before I was formally informed that I would be laid off. (I saw the layoff coming.)
For other reasons than that I have not worked for more than 10 years closer to 15. According to your letter you have been tracking me for at least much of that time (probably because I have always been so unusual) but did not contact me until now because my cycles weren’t right. I can vouch for that I was going through something very difficult which has finally mellowed but not entirely disappeared even now. That is also the reason why I don’t have a business.
But my primary near-term emphasis is really only useful to rich people anyway (of which I have not had any contact with until now – I come from a very Democratic background). And you have alluded to it in your writings to me. It turns out from your most recent letters to me that you are at least now, in current times, on the same page as me. You may want to know how I figured it out years ago already, I mean more than 10 years ago, parts of it even 20-30 years ago already.
I have been a neothinker for a long time, also about other things you neothink about. Would be nice to be together with others oriented in the same direction.
I will add I have never been interested in typical American entertainment.
