Dr. Neruda: “I was an only child. My mother died shortly after I was born. I was only
four years old when we came to the States. I really don’t have strong memories of my
home in Sorata.”
Sarah: “Where’s Sorata”
Dr. Neruda: “North of La Paz, on the east end of Lake Titicaca.”
Sarah: “Maybe I’ve watched too many episodes of the X-Files, but it seems a little hard
to believe that your father could negotiate a job and U.S. citizenship with the SPL. Can
you explain how he did that”
Dr. Neruda: “He asked. It wasn’t such a hard thing. Here’s a man that speaks perfect
English, knows electronics, and has some political clout. More importantly, he led the
SPL to a very important discovery, worth billions of dollars in research and
development. And, my father was smart enough to photograph the craft and secure
electronic components that pertained to navigation. He had these carefully secured
with instructions for their distribution should anything befall him or me.”
Sarah: “Don’t take this the wrong way, but didn’t you say that only young geniuses
were hired into the ACIO I assume your father didn’t qualify.”
Dr. Neruda: “No, he wasn’t a genius. But he was smart enough to add value to some
of the reverse engineering experiments that were ongoing within the ACIO—especially
those that pertained to semiconductors.”
Sarah: “And all of this was happening in the mid-fifties”
Dr. Neruda: “Yes.”
Sarah: “Was Fifteen there at the time”
Dr. Neruda: “No. He joined the ACIO in the spring of 1958.”
Sarah: “So he knew your father”
Dr. Neruda: “My father, believe it or not, became a high-level director of the ACIO
toward the latter part of his tenure, thanks largely to Fifteen, who took an immediate
liking to my father. Remember Fifteen is Spanish. My father knew Fifteen as well as
anyone, and had the utmost respect for him.”
Sarah: “Was your father part of the Labyrinth Group”
Dr. Neruda: “Yes.”
