Page 271:  I greatly fear the inferences and warnings given by the Aliens relating to climate change, and the subsequent increase in magnitude and frequency of flooding, tidal waves and hurricanes are now upon us; also the incidence of terrorism, wars, pestilence and famine et cetera will become much more threatening as we enter the 21^st Century...

Page 275: The Aliens appeared to be hinting that Mother Nature, for want of a better definition, could be holding a number of ace cards up her sleeve to deploy at the worst possible moment? Consider the scenarios such as a global increase in volcanism, undersea and land earthquakes; gigantic earth slides on coastal regions, resulting in enormous tidal waves (tsunamis) that would be capable of wiping out whole cities on exposed coastlines...

   How many hours had passed I do not know but now my muscles were aching, my eyes felt heavily encrusted with sand and salt, my lips were cracked and stinging agonisingly from the salt. I began to wonder if I had been abandoned to the elements. A further indeterminable period found me kneeling exhausted in the sand, throat parched, my body wracked in pain and with an unbelievable urge to quench my thirst. A tear trickled down my cheek as I felt so alone, aching and exhausted. Why have they done this I anguished as self-pity began taking its turn? I tried to get to my feet but the strength was not there! I keeled over in the sand and lay there. My mind seemed to wander and then strangely a warm glow appeared to envelope me and I drifted into a welcome sleep.

   It was then that the voice came, a soft and reassuring voice, a voice that said. “Let me tell you about Heaven’s Breath...

   Heaven’s breath kissed a child’s soft cheek, lifting golden tendrils of hair as it breezed across the lush parkland. Up and on it went, buffeting light fluffy clouds, whispering through treetops and causing clothing to dance upon the washing lines, as the invisible force went on its exploratory journey.

   Both night and day it travelled, never stopping for a moment. Never pausing to take in the panorama; mindlessly changing direction again and again. Eventually it came to a desert where it was able to race across smooth dusty sands and skip freely over the huge dunes it found there. Through the small villages and encampments it went, lifting and overturning anything that was not secured, causing men to rush about trying to catch their scattered possessions.

   With an ominous threat the sky darkened as the wind gathered strength and speed. It now either buried what it was not able to lift, or stripped it bare of sand leaving the foundations of walls and buildings unprotected against the whim of nature. Surging with power, the wind destroyed the simple tents and shacks that served as homes, pushing and tearing at them until they collapsed or were blown away.

   As evening turned to night the storm came to its worst, displaying blind fury as it raged its way eastwards, leaving behind the overturned shacks and newly formed sand dunes as a memorial to its violent passage. Later as the air settled, people ventured out from their homes. For now they would build makeshift shelters for those who had been made homeless and forget the storm until the morning when they would curse it as they collected up their belongings and checked their livestock…”

   The voice appeared to change to the sound of the wind and again I drifted into a deep sleep. How much time passed I had no way of knowing but I suddenly awoke to a strange presence. Although the wind was still howling about me and I could sense the sand being whipped up, it seemed to have no ill affect upon me. Then I was very aware of another life form...............

   Now progressing the point I was making earlier to you regarding space and time machines, and the point I explained to you about finding yourself floating in space if you travelled just purely back in time. We need to address the question and ignoring space for the moment, what does it mean in relation to ‘time units’ when travelling back into the past? Is there a limit to the actual unit - is it a nanosecond or femtosecond? What is the ‘least time’ I can travel back into the past - where exactly will the present stop and the past begin, so to speak?

   Indeed, when breaking time down into its smallest units, it is at the quantum level that the flow of time becomes ragged. At the sub-particle level movement between any two particles is by a ‘quantum leap’ as I have explained to you earlier in our encounters. Thus time, or more correctly motion is not of an analogue nature, but can be said to be of a digital nature in the form of quantum jumps at its lowest level.

   Another question you should be asking yourself is how fast can a time machine travel? Will they have a finite speed or will it be instantaneous? If the speed is finite then you have to ask how long will it take me to travel twenty years into the past, or possibly more meaningful, how long will it take me to travel a thousand years into the past? You will, I trust, certainly still want to be alive when you have reached your journeys end? Time travelling cannot be instantaneous, as that would imply exceeding the velocity of light. You must recognise that apart from yourself the time machine is made of matter, that is, mass. Now you know the time machine, including yourself, would attain infinite mass as they approached the speed of light, so instantaneous time travelling is out........
