Art Bell returns from a three-week personal absence to sit down with Major Ed Dames, founder of the private remote viewing firm PSI TECH, now celebrating its tenth anniversary. Dames discusses contrails, revealing that his remote viewing sessions identified three distinct categories: normal condensation trails, atmospheric chemistry research missions flown by agencies like NASA and NOAA studying ozone depletion, and a classified defense initiative involving material falling from the sky that he cannot fully disclose but suggests may protect the public in a national emergency.

The conversation shifts to the devastating F5 tornadoes that ravaged Oklahoma and Kansas, which Dames had predicted months earlier on the show. He links the increasing severity of storms to accelerating ozone loss, warning that the problem is far worse than publicly acknowledged and will fundamentally alter how humanity grows food and inhabits the planet. Dames also announces PSI TECH's Operation Guiding Light, donating remote viewing training tapes to American high schools in the wake of the Columbine tragedy.

Art and Dames explore deep philosophical territory, including the nature of consciousness, the mechanics of teleportation, and the distinction between mind and soul. Dames describes PSI TECH's new Transluminonics division working on wireless quantum teleportation switching devices and warns that 1999 will bring events of biblical proportions that will eclipse Y2K concerns.

Key Moments

  1. Two tons of plutonium are out of the country: Dames claims that the U.S. government's unaccounted-for plutonium inventory is in fact missing because it left the country, and that he raised the issue at Los Alamos. He says he knows where it is but cannot disclose the route.

  2. Chemtrails as classified atmospheric defense initiative: Dames distinguishes three categories of contrails - ordinary condensation, government atmospheric-chemistry experiments studying ozone and aerosols, and a third classified defense initiative he cannot detail except to say it may protect citizens during a strategic attack while making some people temporarily ill.

  3. Tornadoes and ozone loss: Dames recalls his prior prediction of a 'mother of all tornadoes' in the American Midwest, references the F-5s that had just killed dozens in Oklahoma and Kansas, and links the increasing severity of storms to ozone depletion that is more serious than the public has been told.

  4. Remote viewing the Creator and a July biological-warfare warning: Asked to remote view God after his earlier session on Satan, Dames says the Creator appears as a diffuse 'hall of mirrors' - everywhere at once - unlike the discrete entity Satan. He then says Nostradamus's July 1999 prophecy, when remote viewed, looks like a biological warfare attack on U.S. soil.

  5. Transluminonics and quantum teleportation switches: Dames announces a new SciTech division, Transluminonics, working on wireless quantum teleportation switches operating at femtosecond speeds with zero travel time across any distance. Bell uses the folded-paper analogy and Dames clarifies they're going 'behind' the speed of light, not exceeding it.
