I can "remember" wearing a brown leather jacket just like that back in 1991, in the context of my artificial memory. I "remember" purchasing it at the Burlington Coat Factory in Greenville South Carolina. I "remember" also purchasing from there a black wool long overcoat that I wore on the coldest days. I "remember" one day walking into a bank branch of First Federal, which I can still locate on a map, and the bank branch manager told me he thought they were getting robbed when he saw me walking in. I was called there on a service call for some computer system at that location and I was wearing that long black overcoat and I had on my Ray Ban Wayfarers and I was carrying a black tool case the company had issued to me.
Michael Biehn's character must represent the military prisoner, a con artist I have been thinking for a recent while, that United States Navy Fire Controlman Petty Officer Second Class Kerry Burgess was escorting on the Flight 232 when it crashed landed and burned.
Only after I wrote those last paragraphs did I start to think about how Duke Power is a major power concern in South Carolina much the way Puget Sound Energy is here in the Seattle Washington area. I had thought of Duke Power in association with Greenville SC but it was more of something I sensed than really thought about, mainly because that was an automatic thought, which is something I describe as to how I regularly mailed a check to them.
After I wrote that last paragraph I looked it up on the map and I see it is fairly close to the former First Federal building in Greenville SC. I wondered if maybe there was a Duke building in Asheville but I don't really see anything. I did notice that the Asheville police and fire departments are very close to that building at College and Broadway. Also the map indicates that the Blue Ridge Savings Bank is right across the street from that building.
The irony is how those operatives, as I heard the character portrayed by Michael Biehn whining, as another example, complain about being used, and that is true. We're all being used. Humans are cattle to them. Only some of us possess the power to break out.

United Airlines Flight 232
United Airlines Flight 232 was a scheduled flight from Stapleton International Airport in Denver, Colorado, to O'Hare International Airport in Chicago, with continuing service to Philadelphia International Airport. On July 19, 1989, the DC-10 (Registration N1819U) operating the route crash-landed in Sioux City, Iowa, after suffering catastrophic failure of its tail-mounted engine, which led to the loss of all flight controls. 111 people died in the accident
The crew guided the crippled jet to Sioux Gateway Airport and lined it up for landing on one of the runways. However, without flight controls, they were unable to slow down for landing, and were forced to attempt landing at much too high a speed and rate of descent. On touchdown, the aircraft broke apart, caught fire, and rolled over. The largest section came to rest in a cornfield next to the runway.
On final descent, the aircraft was going 240 knots and sinking at 1,850 feet per minute, while a safe landing would require 140 knots and 300 feet per minute. Fitch needed a seat for landing; Dvorak offered up his own, as it could be moved to a position behind the throttles. Dvorak sat in the cockpit's jumpseat for landing. Unfortunately, right before touchdown, the aircraft began a downward phugoid and veered right. The flight crew had no time to react. The tip of the right wing hit the runway first, spilling fuel, which ignited immediately. The tail section broke off from the force of the impact, and the rest of the aircraft bounced several times, shedding the landing gear and engine nacelles and breaking the fuselage into several main pieces. On the final impact the right wing was sheared off and the main part of the aircraft skidded sideways, rolled over on to its back, and slid to a stop upside-down in a corn field to the right of Runway 22. Witnesses reported that the aircraft cartwheeled, but the investigation did not confirm this. News reports that the aircraft cartwheeled were due to misinterpretation of the video of the crash that showed the flaming right wing tumbling end-over-end and the intact left wing, still attached to the fuselage, rolling up and over as the fuselage flipped over.
Of the 296 people on board, 111 died in the crash. Most were killed by injuries sustained in the multiple impacts, but 35 people in the middle fuselage section directly above the fuel tanks died from smoke inhalation in the post-crash fire. Of those, 24 had no traumatic blunt-force injuries. The majority of the 185 survivors were seated behind first class and ahead of the wings. Many passengers were able to walk out through the ruptures to the structure, and in many cases got lost in the high field of corn adjacent to the runway until rescue workers arrived on the scene and escorted them to safety.

It must have been something similar to when I saved those people from being run over by that speeding car a few years back. That must have been 2002. I was a volunteer at the Danskin triathlon. I puzzled over that for a long time. I just couldn't put my finger on something about that. My mind had been blank but yet I acted with such split-second decisiveness to keep them from getting splattered by that car.

I think I have written more than once about the sense in my mind after I started being treated at the VA in the summer of 2005. I guess it could have started before but I tend to associate a specific sense in my mind with that period in the VA. I was pondering over it in great detail a few days or weeks ago before I watched "Mission To Mars" on television recently and I write of it now in that context of time because of certain details that I have noted for that film "Mission To Mars." As I was pondering again in great detail a few weeks ago I guess it was I was thinking about how after I started treatment at the VA I was seeing something when I closed my eyes that I thought of as the circuit patterns on printed electronic circuit boards. I mentioned it to my doctor at the VA but I cannot remember if I mentioned specifically what I was seeing. I remember him saying something but it was not anything specific that I can recall. I think it was just some off-hand remark similar to when I told the nurse that I wanted to take the medication in the different tablet form because the one type was a bitter pill and she said something about how she was sure it was.

The police wouldn’t help me all those times because they know that whoever is doing this to me is guilty of a major crime and they feared for their jobs because of who was responsible.
They were trying to make me look bad because they were anticipating that I was going to make them look bad.
They had absolutely nothing they could use to make me look bad, so they had to try to manufacture something. One example is when those people assaulted me outside Redmond on the Sammamish River Trail, trying to get me to take a swing at that guy, of which a hidden video would only show that part. And there was the time they left those two laptop bags in Wal-Mart. I’m thinking Wal-Mart may have actually sponsored that incident. And then there was the “car bomb” incident at my apartment in Kent. All of that was being staged so they could present it later to a jury to reduce my credibility as I point out criminal activities by Microsoft and George W. Bush. If I am the person I have been writing about, I have a tremendous amount of credibility.
