  • Alien Interview
    ALIEN INTERVIEW (INTERVIEW MIT EINEM AUSSERIRDISCHEN) Herausgegeben von Lawrence R. Spencer (Autor von "The Oz Factors") Basierend auf den persönlichen Notizen und Interview Mitschriften bereitgestellt von: Mathilda O'Donnell MacElroy übersetzt von Antonia Gohel und lektoriert von Jonathan Dilas Ansprache der Übersetzerin: Die 84jährige Mathilda O'Donnell MacElroy veröffentlichte kurz vor Ihrem Tod die Notizen ihres Interviews. Sie war die Einzige, mit der das Wesen über Telepathie zu kommunizieren bereit war. Was ihr dabei über die Menschheit, Geschichte, Technologie und die Architekten der Matrix mitgeteilt wurde, ist atemberaubend. Aus meiner Sicht aber nur eine Sicht der Dinge. Die folgenden Ausführungen sind sehr bereichernd. Wie der Inhalt auch immer aufgefasst wird, ist beim Lesen auffällig, dass viele Bereiche des Planeten und des Kosmos erklärt werden, die vorher in einem Dunkel lagen. Sicherlich ist nicht alles nachvollziehbar, oder akzeptabel. Jeder wird sich seine wichtige Erkenntnis herausziehen können. Danksagung: Ich bin keine Übersetzerin von Beruf. Deshalb gilt allen die mich bei dieser Aufgabe unterstützt haben mein größter Dank. Zu aller erst möchte ich Thomas danken. Ohne ihn hätte ich diese Aufgabe nicht durchführen können. Seine ruhige stabilisierende Unterstützung war unentbehrlich während der gesamten Zeit. Als zweites möchte ich Margit für ihre fachliche Unterstützung danken. Und zum Schluss danke ich Lawrence, der mir immer Mut zugesprochen hat, und mich durchgehend während des gesamten Prozesses unterstützt hat. Seine Aufheiterungen und Zustimmungen waren ebenfalls unverzichtbar. Antonia Gohel Ansprache des Lektors: Die deutsche Übersetzung der Originalausgabe besaß ziemlich viele Rechtschreib- und Grammatikfehler. Für mich ein absolutes Rätsel, wie es dazu kommen konnte, dass man eine solche Übersetzung absegnen und veröffentlichen lassen konnte.
