The Philadelphia Experiment Murder

The ever-growing Montauk Project mythos continues on full force into the new millennium with the latest installment to the Sky Book series courtesy of Alexandra "Chica" Bruce, who blows her own unique riff on the theme in The Philadelphia Experiment Murder: Parallel Universes and the Physics of Insanity.Much of The Philadelphia Experiment Murder concerns the late Phil Schneider, who before his untimely demise traveled the UFO and patriot lecture circuit in the early 90's exposing various conspiracies, among these allegations of a secret pact between the alien grays and the U.S. Government, which consisted of the trading of human genetic material for the latest and greatest in alien high tech. Schneider became privy to these clandestine activities while working on top secret projects for the government under civilian contract. Purportedly, Schneider helped construct tunnels into the earth, which connected a series of secret underground bases where aliens and humans participated in assorted hyjinks, including the back engineering of alien craft, time travel projects and alien/human hybrid genetic experimentation. Phil was probably one of the first (if not the first) to speak out on the Dulce War, a fabled alien/human underground battle, featuring laser guns and big-nosed grays. Allegedly, Phil was at the forefront of this legendary skirmish, kicking ass and taking alien names.While many may scoff at such far-flung assertions, Chica exhorts us not to throw out the alien baby with the bathwater, but instead to entertain a whole spectrum of possibilities, including not only the wild and wooly stories circulated by Phil Schneider, but as well an assortment of other mind-bending speculations concerning alternate dimensions and parallel worlds influencing and interacting with our own. In The Philadelphia Experiment Murder, Chica suggests that Schneider's death went far beyond a garden variety suicide, and more likely than not was aided and abetted by those shadowy members of that arcane fraternity more commonly known in the annals of conspiracy lore as the "New World Order"-or in another dimension, the dreaded "Illuminaughty". In this regard, Schneider joins a long list of other supposed victims of this international cartel of creeps who pull the world's strings from behind the scenes, manipulating human beings to further the New World Odor's nefarious agenda. In the final analysis, Chica's journey into the arcane territories of the Montauk Project, The Dulce War, and the very nature of reality is--in essence--a journey of self discovery, as in the epilogue she waxes poetic upon the potential pitfalls of falling prey to the prevalent consensus reality tunnels that mire our everyday existence. Furthermore, Chica makes some quite salient points about "conspiracy theories" that mirror many of my own feelings about the conspiracy research scene, such as it is. You see, conspiracies are a means of expanding consciousness, in my opinion, just like certain hall

I HAVE PURCHASED THIS BOOK, BUT HAVE NOT YET READ IT....I AM LOOKING FORWARD TO IT AFTER THE OTHER BOOKS I HAVE READ ON THIS TOPIC. IF IT'S AS GOOD AS THE OTHERS I WILL BE VERY HAPPY. HOPE ANYONE WHO HAS READ IT LIKES IT

Don't get me wrong: I love a great conspiracy read, and THE PHILADELPHIA EXPERIMENT MURDER succeeds grandly on that level.Alexandra Bruce goes to great lengths to summarize the Philadelphia Experiment while juxtaposing that factline with the unexplainable death of not one but two key figures in the mythology associated to the famous experiment taking place aboard USS Eldridge (or did it?). Of course, facts are hard to come by, in this day and age, but the author does an exceptional job places the puzzle pieces together in a coherent fashion ... with perhaps only a few pieces missing.The mysterious death of Paul Schneider (murder or suicide?) provides the true backbone to this read, the death closely following his jaunt on the convention circuit talking about the Philadelphia Experiment, the Dulce Wars, and the U.S. governments secret network of underground bases. A tried and true journalist might tear the book to shred over the lack of proof associated to the read, but therein lies the appeal to TPEM: did the Philadelphia Experiment happen or did it not AND, if it did, what was the relationship to what appears to be an obvious cover-up of what should have been a relatively routine murder investigation?While the 'Physics of Insanity' portion of the book veers off course of bit from the main thrust of the text, Ms. Bruce manages to pull it all into focus in her closing chapters, catapulting the reader to a broader level of understanding how or why the government might have a tactical need to keep whatever did or did not happen a secret.Sound confusing? Some of it may be, but Ms. Bruce creates an easily accessible account that kept me glued to the pages.A few parts of the book are a bit meaty, and, in all honesty, I would've rather seen a more expansive attempt to get to the bottom of the mysterious deaths ... but, as is common in conspiracy literature, those trails rarely lead to rewarding conclusions or destinations. Still, TPEM is well worth a glance, if for no greater purpose than to set straight some of the misconceptions surrounding the USS Eldridge, Albert Einstein, Nikolai Tesla, and the infamous Area 51.

This is an excellent story and I got a lot of new information out of it. I think this was the best of the Montauk type books.Just my opinion!

As Alexandra Bruce states, studying "fringe conspiracy legends" can help us gain "insights about how reality works." In this sense, she has written a book that forces the reader to confront their own belief-system and consensus-reality, noting that, "The chief benefit from the study of these nuclear-age pop-cult legends is this: Everything you can imagine is true; so choose your thoughts thoughtfully. Choose your beliefs carefully and choose your REALITY wisely." Thus, she brings into sharp relief a major issue that should concern us all, namely, a need to understand the power of belief and how mass-belief and collective belief literally shapes the reality we all live in. In this, she is going beyond the mere observation of how, say, advertising and marketing create and shape our belief-systems, but into the issue of how consciousness-energy may literally affect and shape physical reality, via that borderland world that has been called, the Imaginal realm, the psychoid, the omnijective and quantum potentia. Were she merely a lone voice in the wilderness, we might be able to dismiss this notion with facile casualness, but when one contemplates the works of the many theorists exploring and writing about such ideas - like Dr. John Lilly, Robert Anton Wilson, Michael Grosso, Fred Alan Wolf, Terrence McKenna and Dr. Kenneth Ring, to name a few - one is forced to conclude that we may well be on the threshold of a revolutionary understanding of how universal creation actually works. The only drawback to the book is that - though she does a pretty good job of walking the tight-rope between skepticism of and belief in the reports given to her by people who claim participation in these conspiracies - The Philadelphia Experiment, The Montauk Project and the Dulce Wars - the fact that she is published by Sky Books - which has a definite vested interest in pushing the idea that Montauk and The Philadelphia Experiment are total fact - restricts her objectivity somewhat, IMHO. In other words, she is forced to tilt a little to the "belief side" of the equation, although this may stem from her belief that something *real* did in fact happen to these people, even though she doesnt necessarily endorse their accounts and interpretations as some sort of absolute truth. And, it must be admitted, all published authors are affected by the realities of the publishing world in one way or another. All in all, an admirable debut - I look forward to her next book.
