Nice collection, Len, as usual. Looking fwd to catching up with landwork and maybe sitting down this weekend to more attentively absorb your framing/thinking.
Do you know whether Ev or anyone is still selling the Pensee/Aeon CD-ROM? I've gone back to the site for a couple years now to see if I get something other than the "PayPal isn't working" link, but no luck yet. :^>
Riffing off your list, I am partial to Andy Hall's articles and videos on "electric geology." His thinking makes so much sense, answering so many questions I've had back to childhood.
I hope to find time to reply with more attention later. I have some thoughts on how humans remember, and how humans forget, that I've long reflected on around Matters Catastrophic. But for right now, just--thanks.
Hi Korpi. I just emailed Ev Cochrane to ask if Aeon and the Catastrophism CD ROM are still available. His address is shown at https://www.aeonjournal.com/index.html. AI said you can send a check to the address listed there in Ames, IA to receive those, but Ev will probably confirm by email soon.
I wrote 2 posts, I think, on Andy Hall's ideas. I think electrical forces played a part in ancient cataclysms, somewhat like he suspects, but I don't think they dominated. The Great Flood and impacts, esp. the asteroid impact that broke up the supercontinent, Pangaea, surely did most of the resurfacing of the Earth, depositing sedimentary rock strata, shifting continents and building mountain chains etc. Electrical forces were involved in the impacts and may have produced radioactive elements in the crust and other surface features, but it's very likely that they did not build mountains or carve out large canyons or ocean basins. Charles Chandler's book, which I edited on my Substack, at https://zzzzzzz.substack.com/p/electric-astrophysics, seems the most realistic about how electrical forces work in and on Earth and in the universe.
Have you read Worlds in Collision? In it, Velikovsky had a chapter on Collective Amnesia. Since he was a psychoanalyst, his theory seems plausible that humanity forgot the past because it was too traumatic to remember.

Ev has a website. I think you can order back issues of Aeon at https://www.maverickscience.com/store/.
You can also contact him on this form: https://www.maverickscience.com/contact-me/.
AI tells me: To inquire about purchasing the Catastrophism CD-ROM from Ian Tresman, you can use the following contact details:
Name: Ian Tresman, Knowledge Computing
Address: 17 Arrowsmith Drive, Alsager, ST7 2JQ, United Kingdom
Phone: +44 (0)7588 421119 (best to Text or WhatsApp)
