Hz in 1-nanosecond pulses, the liquid mixture at the wellhead jumps twenty pounds up and
twenty pounds down 3X per second like a hammer. This is called “thumping.” The discharge of
the wind farms occurs in an arc at a certain length and a certain pulse that resonates with wells
tuned to 2.95 Hz. Put your hand on the casing and feel it twitch, like it’s alive.
Both wind farms and fracking well stems have a part to play in the Space Fence
infrastructure, along ionospheric heaters, NexRads, cell and GWEN towers, etc. It is because of

how they pulse together that nations like Scotland and states like Oklahoma won’t be allowed
to ban for long the unconventional practice of fracking.
FIBER-OPTIC CABLES
Today, there are 550,000 fiber-optic data channels cross the oceans. Fortune magazine graphics
director Nicolas Rapp has a spectacular world map of the major seamless fiber-optic trunks:
If the internet is a global phenomenon, it’s because there are fiber-optic cables underneath the ocean. Light goes in on
one shore and comes out the other, making these tubes the fundamental conduit of information throughout the global
village. To make the light travel enormous distances, thousands of volts of electricity are sent through the cable’s
copper sleeve to power repeaters, each the size and roughly the shape of a six-hundred-pound bluefin tuna.
Once a cable reaches a coast, it enters a building known as a “landing station” that receives and transmits the
flashes of light sent across the water. The fiber-optic lines then connect to key hubs, known as “Internet exchange
points,” which, for the most part, follow geography and population. The majority of transatlantic undersea cables land
in downtown Manhattan where the result has been the creation of a parallel Wall Street geography, based not on the
location of bustling trading floors but on proximity to the darkened buildings that house today’s automated trading
platforms. The surrounding space is at a premium, as companies strive to literally shorten the wire that connects them
to the hubs. 70
Fiber-optic signals are light passing in the form of a laser beam through thin strands of optical fiber or glass at
very high speeds. The trunk line (“six-hundred-pound bluefin tuna”) is made up of fiber optic cables bundled together
to increase bandwidth and carry multiple “channels” for multiple networks (and agendas). Telecom contractors like
AT&T Inc., MCI, Sprint, and CenturyLink own vast Internet backbone networks and sell their services to (and exert
power over) Internet service providers (ISPs). On land, these same providers link hundreds of cell towers together
with fiber-optic cable, thus pressuring local zoning boards to approve hundreds of cell towers in one fell swoop.
Fiber-optic cables, like wireless towers, spell power. (Whereas fiber-optic technology unlocks ultra-high speeds
71
for wired connections, terahertz transmitters unlock fiber-optic speeds for wireless. ) First of all, whether on land or
72
coming up out of the oceans, they are easy to tap with “intercept probes” and prisms:
The tapping process apparently involves using so-called “intercept probes”. . .[T]he intelligence agencies likely
gain access to the landing stations. . .and use these small devices to capture the light being sent across the cable. The
73
probe bounces the light through a prism, makes a copy of it, and turns it into binary data . . .
Between 2003 and 2006, Room 641A at 611 Folsom Street in San Francisco was fed Internet
backbone traffic (foreign and domestic) passing through the building along fiber-optic lines from
beam splitters installed in fiber optic trunks. Room 641A was known as AT&T’s SG3 [Study
Group 3] Secure Room. J. Scott Marcus, a former chief technology officer for GTE (General
Telephone & Electronics Corporation) and former adviser to the Federal Communications
Commission (FCC), had access to all of it. Whistleblower William Binney, once director of the
NSA’s World Geopolitical and Military Analysis Reporting Group, estimates that ten to twenty
such facilities have been installed throughout the United States. 74
Because fiber-optic lines are strands of optically pure glass as thin as a human hair that can
carry digital information, fiber optics are used in neuroengineering, along with molecular
biology, optogenetic engineering, surgery, and lasers. 75
Not entirely dissimilar to the “new science” of neuroengineering is the covert practice of
