He actually suggested "reversing the direction of some of its major rivers" ? Whoa...Just tried to Google it and couldn’t find it. It might have been Cliff Rees that mentioned he had heard that in some presentation. I’ll ask him.
Hadn't seen or heard that one.
I think he’s referring to a bizarre presentation Kelly and I were subjected to over in Vlodrop back in 1998 where Neil, Bevan and Reid were told to show me a new videotape on Sthapatya Veda which included straightening out the Seine and the Thames and knocking down every building to the north. My seat-of-the-pants guesstimate for that type of reconstruction was a trillion per city, give or take a few hundred billion.
I don’t recall any discussion of reversing the direction of the rivers however. I mean, after all, we have to be practical about these things! :-)
BTW – our three illustrious presenters all fell asleep within the first few minutes of the show and snored through the rest of the 45 minutes or so. Definitely one of the more peculiar moments in my Movement experience – sitting in M’s house surrounded by luxurious furniture and silk wall coverings, listening to a very amateurishly produced videotape seriously discussing the razing of every major city on the planet along with “smoothing” out of mountain ranges (so they wouldn’t get in the way of the eastern horizon), with the ones presumably responsible for this largest of all engineering projects ever attempted by a few orders of magnitude all snoring away next to me.
In retrospect, I’m glad it occurred as it did because that was the event that completely untied the knots I was holding on to in terms of taking the Movement at all seriously. I finally really “got” that the emperor had no clothes. And was OK with it – struck me as hilariously funny as we were walking out of the gate. __._,_.___
