Infrasonic apparitions

The properties of both infrasound and ultrasound to harm humans have been well researched and established. NASA, the American space agency was interested in learning about the effects of infra sound on human body because it was of vital concern to astronauts who were to be sent to outer space. The rocket engines emit low frequency infrasonic waves once ignited. It was thought that these could be harmful to the astronauts stationed within the vehicle as they are very close to the source of the noise. NASA’s study, conducted in the early 60’s, proved it beyond doubt that the infrasound waves do produce several bodily effects. Among them headaches, coughing, visual problems, change in heart rhythm, a sense of suffocation, tremors inside chest figures prominently. The harmful frequencies were found to be between 0 Hz and 100Hz at 150 or so decibels. It was later established that an infrasound wave with the frequency of around 19 Hz can cause vibration to the eye balls and thus result in visual disorientation.

It has also been suggested that infrasound waves at certain frequencies could trigger aggressiveness irritability and even cause temporary insanity.

Sounds propagate in wave form. Infrasound is at one end of the spectrum and ultrasound is at the other end of the spectrum of sound waves. We can only hear sound frequencies between 20Hzs and 20000Hzs. Both infrasound and ultrasound are out side the hearing range of humans. Infrasound has a long wavelength and is measured in tens of meters and the ultra sound having very small wave lengths can be measured in millimeters. Ultra sound is, as stated in the previous article is well recognized for its usage in the medical profession in the guise of scanning apparatuses.

I came across an article by Jack Sargent written in 2001 for Fortean Times on acoustic weapons. Some of the information in this article is taken from that. He was humorous and witty in that article and had several digs at “Conspiracy Watchers”. Here is one snippet from his 2001 article “A search of the available literature and the Internet reveals that many conspiracy theorists, paranoiacs, and some political activists, sincerely believe that the military has developed infrasound weapons… but precisely what these weapons are, how they function, and how they would be deployed remains vague. Unlike bacteriological, chemical, atomic, laser, and even microwave warfare, little information exists on the use of infrasound as a weapon.”
Some of the anecdotes related in the article were hilarious and I enjoyed them. Of particular interest was one about an engineer named Vic Tandy. His lab was said to be haunted and he set out to find the reason for it. Let us hear what happened in the authors own words “This ‘spook’ was characterized by a feeling of unease and vague glimpses of a grey apparition. A spot of detective work implicated a newly installed extractor fan that, Tandy found, was generating infrasound of 18.9Hz.” The engineer has advised ghost hunters to check whether their ghosts are in fact infrasonic. Many such interesting tales abound in the article which is well written and presented. I had one complaint only. He had filled his article with several “unsubstantiated reports” of sonic weapons which were supposed to have existed in the past and concluded his essay on the note that “So sonic weapons, despite the oft-repeated claims, would most likely be large, cumbersome, close-range devices resulting in ruptured eardrums.” This we know was far from the fact. If it was in 2001 he probably would have included this writer in the exclusive club who ‘sincerely believed” in their existence.
A few years passed. In 2005 he again wrote an article on acoustic weapons on the same site. This time round he could not deny their existence and in fact had to report a real functional acoustic weapon in action which was light enough to carry around by a single individual and repel pirates at sea. The article has an image of the weapon in it. You can access the article with the following link.

The 2001 article also should be available on their site for reference. Now to the point of this article-

What is stated here is that unknown to the general public and even to most of the intelligentsia which prides about its access to information; weapons are being developed by those in power with behavior control in mind. The weapon described in the above article (LARD) is produced commercially. This would not happen unless those in authority is at least one step ahead in the development and deployment of much more efficient weaponry. The debate on mind control, for I believe that there is one, goes on with the firm belief that there are such weapons in existence. These are potentially harmful to the people in general because what they are up against is a very frightened group of people worried about their survival. These groups have certain concepts about what the world has to be and what direction it should take. This is a cavalier attitude. There have been such people at all stages of social evolution. Generally this emerges out of a fascist out look. Considering that fascism is a product of the middle class mental framework and considering that the middle class is in ascendancy all over the world the threat of such a take over is very real. I too belong to the class but that has not prevented me from seeing the dangerous side of middle class outlook. I realize that most of the social movements from the renaissance onwards (both good and bad) originated from or through this class. It gave birth to Hitler as well as Gandhi, it produced Einstein as well as General Mc Carthy(“life is cheap in Asia, so let us nuke them” fame). What troubles me and should trouble others are the Hitler’s and the Mc Carthy’s. That is where the danger prowls. The elite class( the royal bloods) might stop once it has produced its Dracula (Count Dracula) and the submerged might stall at the fall of a Martin Luther King, but Hitler’s and Mc Carthy’s do not stop, for they don’t know how to stop, they wouldn’t understand what stopping is.

This is the one problem that has beset the world at present. A powerful beaurocracy is in control. It does not have to report to anybody. It is financed by secret funds. It has ways to find and use such funds. It can do whatever it wants because it has been in power for far too long and knows every trick in the book to befuddle the politicians as well as the general public. It does not change, whether in the west or in the east, it is deeply entrenched, and it is not easy to dislodge. It has all the instruments of manipulation at its hands and it is adept at using them. It may not have the best brains within its folds but it knows how to get hold of them and make use of them. It might say “yes sir’s” and “Shall do sir’s” but it does what it wants every time it sets about it. Now it has in its hands the weapons of mass mind control. If any body is so naïve as to believe that it has any conscience and it would work for the benefit of the humanity then the god, who is probably demised, help them.

The rest of the world has a fight in its hands. This fight is against an unseen opponent, against subtle weapons, against lack of conscience. This is a must win battle, for such a lot is at stake, the whole blessed civilization is at stake.
