A few days ago I emailed Marie Chio, an associate of Grant Gartrell. I received this email today just moments ago. In it, Mr. Gartrell denies any connection to AB.

I know this email is real because it is in response to my email to Ms. Choi who forwarded it to Dr. Gartrell.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Marie Choi kindly forwarded your email to me. I have prepared the following response to a situation I was not even aware of until a few hours ago, when I returned home from a week away caving to find my email inbox bursting at the seams.



“Several people have recently contacted me, and thus have drawn my attention to claims being made in my name concerning the prediction of imminent cataclysmic cometary impacts.



Please be advised that I have no knowledge of the identity of the person “Aussie Bloke” who claims to be me.



I am very displeased to be caught up in a hoax in this way, and while I do not regard myself as a vindictive person, I do not think that I would be too upset at this moment if a small “personal sized” heavenly body fell out of the sky and flattened “Aussie Bloke”, or at least knocked some integrity into him.



I am one of the authors of an article on meteors which appeared in the Australian Journal of Physics in 1975, but, although still interested in it, have not worked actively in that field much since that time. I am currently a berry grower with a serious interest in cave exploration, cave science and cave tourism development and management, as well as the landcare movement and the promotion of sustainable agriculture and horticulture.



There are a number of claims made by “Aussie Bloke” in his hi-jacking of my persona that are plainly incorrect and make it quite clear that he does not know me as well as he would like others to believe.

I would like to state categorically that while I have no doubt that over geologically significant periods of time there have been significant impacts on earth by space debris, and that there is no reason to suppose that similar events will not occur from time to time in the future, I have no knowledge whatsoever of any such immediate or imminent threat, or any related conspiracy. I have never even met Chicken Little, and I have already started planning travel arrangements for conferences I expect to attend in several years time.”


Kind regards,


Grant Gartrell

Oh! Zing!

How's that for a kick-in-the-nuts dinger of a WRONG!

Sorry, its just, you don't often see conspiracy/doomsday theories get literally kicked in the face like this, do you?

ahh well

looks like i have to pay my credit card debt back after all

Right, take the blue pill and go back to sleep

If nothing else the fact that this Grant Gartrell knows how to spell his own name should add some credence to this e-mail.

Another thread about this? When will mod start moving or closing these threads? They seem to do a good job with that.

What was he doing caving? Looking for a place to hide?

Just because somone posts an email doesn't prove the email is real.

Oh god here we go again

People believe what you want but I have been sure this was a hoax from day one.. that can be proven by seeing my posts in the thread that started it all.

There is something very strange going on and it has nothing to do with an asteroid or comet impact.

I posted a news report in ATSNN about unusual weather. as I believe the cause of strange activity within our government is related to an impending climate change. the cause is still a mystery as I am unable to back it up because all the data related to current weather anomalies has vanished or been changed. There is something going on within the time of this hoax. but it is not related at all.

Energy-wave,

I know you don't know me from Adam. However, you are essentially accusing me of lying. Let me just say that I don't have time to post made up emails on Internet bulletin boards. This email is real. That is pretty much all I can say. If the admins want to email me, they have my address when I registered. I would be willing to provide them with Gartrell's actual email address so they can verify this email.

SkepticOverlord your super hero always scares me.


So much for the sky falling.

Aussie Block is a hoax, so be it.



BUT!!!


One day a coment will strike earth!! This is like a homeland security update......"I dont know when...I dont know how....BUT something B A D is going to happen!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

Hey good job dude.

I already dismissed the fake Bloke a week ago though.

Now if we could only uncover why several nations have sent 50% of their naval fleets out to see for some so called drill.......

Well that is as they say: that.

There IS something going on, we all know that. Something is definitly shifting around in this world and its BIG, but it aint no asteroid it seems (however lets not discont that but put that line of thought on a back burner for now.)

Now for ATS to do what it does best.

Find out the truth as to why.

a) almost 800 ships from 90% of the worlds navy's have been suddenly deployed.

b) Why the US has shifted 2 trillion $ of its liquid assets and dumping it into its economy. That is not a five dollar piggy bank transfer.

c) and all the other 'coincidences' that did point to the asteroid idea.

PS: this is a theory only. Maybe just maybe the asteroid theory is true but the person leaking the info didnt want to be known because of reprisal. (cutting it thin, but there u go)

It's about time someone put the final flush to this turd!!



You just got my vote for Way Above!
