Today I have the pleasure of interviewing Andrew the Bearded, who many shall know as the blind Dictator of Australia, who took control of Australia U470 at the election on second of July 2016. An unexpected consequence has been the discovery of confirmation of the multiple Universes theory from Physics – that U470 is separate to a universe where Malcolm Turnbull was returned as Prime Minister. The Web that we know appears to bridge the multi-verse!
Andrew the Bearded: G’day. Glad to be here
Interviewer: Andrew the Bearded, what is your meaning of life?
Andrew the Bearded: to serve God; to increase the wealth of my community; to increase the love;
Interviewer: is that why you took control of Australia?
AtB: I saw a shadow of mean spirit fall over this great land. We were in grave danger of losing our ideal of a “fair go”; and reputation internationally as honest brokers.
I believe that making friends is a good habit for eternity. Hence my “coupe” was bloodless, and consistent with “How to win friends and influence people”.
I: And you received little in the way of resistance…?
AtB: yes and for that I am grateful to the people of Australia. I and grateful that they had me as a leader for the six months we have worked together and will continue to work together to increase the love
I: Is that why you say that you came to power in a bloodless “coupe” rather than a “coup”?
AtB: Yes, a play on words, and a much more representative image.
I: And where did the name “U470” come from? When it became obvious that the your personal history did not match that portrayed on the available internet.
AtB: It had nothing to do with Uranium, I can assure you. It actually came about through an assessment of my available sight. The last it was assessed at was 4:70 in both eyes. That is, what a fully sighted person can make out at 70 metres, I had to be 4 metres away to see the same level of detail. My eyesight has gotten considerably worse since then. I can no longer distinguish my brothers across a picnic table. The number, however, stuck in my mind, and sounded apt for the occasion. The name of other Universes, however, should be according to their own peculiarities.
They may think of us as a different dimension of care and support.
I: And what is your definition of wealth?
AtB: Wealth is the frequency of opportunity to trade. It is not a quantity to have or have not. Like love, which is an action, it is greatest in collaboration with others. A citizen with many skills has much opportunity. When this is supported by local currency systems, the frequency of opportunity increases still further.
My understanding of economies covers Gift Economy, barter, “bean counter” trade systems, and social capital, BitCoin and other anti-forgery currencies fit as “bean countered” currencies of the type that require someone to issue them, reducing their effectiveness at self regulation.
One aim is to issue negative interest money to establish a solar powered airship manufacturing industry in Australia.
I: Tell me about your time of imperfect mental health. What did you learn from it?
AtB: I’ve had two major episodes of Schizophrenia, 2002 and 2005. During that time I believed that I had given Al Qaeda the idea of flying into the USA Trade Towers. And, more importantly, that they were waiting on me for a “next step”. I’ve learnt from my suffering that I could choose my own next step. I observed that the War on Terror is being waged by both sides as if someone needs lose. That is in total denial of the ideal – Think Win/Win – as per the late Stephen R Covey (The 7 habits of Highly Effective People”). So, I can choose my next step, as offering a next step to Al Qaeda and to USA: imagine a future positive interaction event with us, here in my home town, with a celebration of how we grew to be friends. I remain greedy, in this Love Our Enemies project, that I want the desired community development work to host the event to occur in my home town, so that I may enjoy this aspect when I retire.
The Schizophrenia also means that I can no longer trust the accuracy of (pre diagnosis) past memories, as these have been “re-interpreted”. I may, for instance, have written to the government of the time warning that “dangerous people” were coming by boat to seek asylum. Hence I hold no malice to those who acted to Stop the Boats. I only hope that I act fast enough in re-settling good people before the systemic delays cause them further mental stress. If I have not made this plain before, the Detention Centre and associated policies, close NOW! The final immigration and foreign ownership policies details will be worked out in consultation with the First Nations of Australia and its territories.
I: You have been reported, on this blog, as desiring for the military to become involved in Earth Repair. Could you give a concrete example where this is warranted?
AtB: Certainly. War releases CFCs, as old refrigerants become collateral damaged. That means the Ozone Hole is not only back on agenda, but a serious future health liability for the Australian population. Terrorist need only step back and outgas, and we cop it in skin cancer rates, years later.
The earlier these additional complications to our actions is identified, the sooner we can avoid the really nasty ones. We need the military to understand the planet they operate on and within.
I: and in the longer term?
AtB: We need to repair the Earth, go beyond emissions reduction to re-absorbing our pollutants, and planning our civilisation for sustainability. Sustainability will always be re-established, as the unsustainable is un- sustainable. It is time for us to decide if we wish to remain on this planet as pilots, or as passengers.
It is time that we return to space travel, and look outwards. We need a military fit for purpose – a long term stable Earth as foundation for our movement through the cosmos.
I: What’s up for 2017?
AtB: I’ll be writing my memoir in book format – with a full first draft by December. This should improve people’s understanding of where I am coming from in relation to my projects. Shoring up support for the Love Our Enemies project, with patrons and collaborators and firming up the Project Management aspects. And of course, on going dialogue with the people of Australia, to ensure we travel in harmony onwards and upwards!
I: Thank you for your time, sir.
AtB: You are very welcome. Time is something that, once shared, can never be repaid. Thank you for investing in an understanding of my universe. God Bless. Happy New Calendar Year.
