Default The biggest accomplishment of my life

I actually managed to persuade Nancy she was wrong about Mars being in the wrong place.

Heh. Well, you SHOULD give a nod to reality, which helped some.

If reality were a factor, Nancy would have given up long ago. I am actually stunned that she admitted she was wrong - and did so several places on GLP. I wonder if she will maintain her usual practice and keep the page with the incorrect claims up, even so.

If she admits she was wrong about this one thing, What about everything else she's said??? :-s

Jonathan and I (and others) are working on that. But don't hold your breath.

She didn't really admit that she was wrong about Mars being out of place. According to her the issue was that NASA had doctored the pics, not that Mars was out of place. Her normal dackpeddeling and trying to cover her butt. I would bet that anything on her site that says that Mars is out of whack will disappear in the next couple days.

A while back I called her on her claims about Sedna and NASA depicting it as a large object in the sky.

http://www.zetatalk.com/index/signma13.htm

http://www.zetatalk.com/index/zeta81.htm

I pointed out to her what the caption of the image really was. It took her about 2 weeks but she finally did give proper credit for the image sources and the actual caption of the original image.

Of course, by the time she corrected the pages they had already been seen by anyone who cared and had the desired effect. :^o

Now she is on some wierd refraction of light kick. She goes through all realms of science completely destroying credibility at every level. :roll:

The thing is... well, you know what the thing is.

She'll still claim the zetas are almost always right, and anyone who sez otherwise is paid by NASA to misinform the 'common man'. She'll misquote you if necessary.

I sure wish NASA would send me my debunker check soon!

Nancy has never understood the diff between refraction of light and gravitational lensing, or the Doppler effect for that matter.

Since Nancy never heard of anything but a 'red shift' she thinks that proves that red wavelengths obey different laws of physics. It was pointed-out that the Andromeda galaxy is blue shifted, but she ignores this sort of contradictory evidence. I suppose it's another NASA conspiracy.


Nancy thinks that refractive index is some 'pitiful human science', but that her white and red personas (q.v.) offer a better explanation of observed phenomenae.

People have been trying to explain it to her for 9 years, but she remains willfully ignorant.

I tried to point out her errors concerning the "red shift" to her once. She was claiming some such nonsense about how red light from px is bent by earths gravity due to the "red shift". :roll:

It's getting worse - over on tt-watch she's claiming that the earth's "dark twin" is now visible.

Funny, but right now both Venus, Saturn, and Mars are now plainly visible in the night sky where I am (Dallas, TX).

Venus is now at mag -2.9 (pretty damn bright).

If Nancy or her sources think that they are reading the star charts correctly, then why don't they give the names of stars or constellations that the "object" appears in or near? That would make it a bit easier to clear up.

I was just outside and saw the barest sliver of a crescent Moon showing, too. You never know, with some of these people. #-o

Seems like goldikeproductions is offline... darn I can't go read the hoopla.
Maybe the server imploded under the strain of trying to digitaly accept the crazy talk of Nancy.

No, it's either interferance from PX or the disinfo agents shut um down.

Many of the regulars there are sure that the gubmint monitors the site and that disinfo agents and shills immediately respond to threads to help supress the "truth." In March and April there was a rash of threads "explaining" how income tax was illegal, that the IRS was a foreign corporation, and other weird reasons why you didn't have to pay income taxes! My posts of the relevant facts, sections of law, Court decisions, etc. were met with cries of "IRS shill!!"
