<strong>The</strong> Fourth Interview of Dr. Jamisson <strong>Neruda</strong><br />
WingmakersTM<br />
By Sarah<br />
W<br />
hat follows is a session I recorded of Dr. <strong>Neruda</strong> on December 31, 1997. He<br />
gave permission for me to record his answers to my questions. This is the<br />
transcript of that session. This was one of five times I was able to tape record<br />
our conversations. I have preserved these transcripts precisely as they occurred. No editing<br />
was performed, and I’ve tried my best to include the exact words, phrasing, and grammar<br />
used by Dr. <strong>Neruda</strong>.<br />
(It’s recommended that you read the previous three interviews before reading this interview.)<br />
Sarah: “As promised, one of the things I want to focus on in this interview is the Ancient<br />
Arrow site. From what you said the other day, the Ancient Arrow site was essentially<br />
stripped of its artifacts. Where are they now and what do you think the ACIO intends to do<br />
with them”<br />
Dr. <strong>Neruda</strong>: “As of the time of my defection, the site’s antechamber and twenty-three subchambers<br />
were carefully measured, analyzed, and each of the artifacts were cataloged. All of<br />
the artifacts that could be taken from the twenty-three chambers were moved to the ACIO<br />
lab for rigorous testing. <strong>The</strong> initial hope was that they contained accessible technologies that<br />
could somehow accelerate the deployment schedule for BST. However, I think that<br />
expectation changed following the discovery of the twenty-fourth chamber.”<br />
Sarah: “You never really talked in any detail about the chambers before. What was so special<br />
about the twenty-fourth Chamber”<br />
Dr. <strong>Neruda</strong>: “What was interesting about the chambers—apart from the artifacts they<br />
contained—was that the site was as sterile as an operating room, except the twenty-third<br />
chamber. Remember that these chambers protruded outward from a central corridor that<br />
spiraled up through solid rock. From the top of the twenty-third chamber to the<br />
antechamber below was approximately fifty meters. We knew there were twenty-four<br />
chapters or segments on the optical disc, but we assumed that the antechamber—even<br />
though it didn’t have any artifacts—was included. Thus, we falsely assumed that the twentyfour<br />
chambers were accounted for.”<br />
Sarah: “<strong>The</strong>y weren’t”<br />
Dr. <strong>Neruda</strong>: “No. <strong>The</strong>re was another chamber that had been hidden.”<br />
Sarah: “How”<br />
