If much of History and the Nightly News is “Cooked”

Where does that leave You???

Transportation Energy Independence? Would that be News?

Simmering frogs is dedicated to helping people out of the pot before they get cooked. That we are in a pot that is gradually warming up is becoming increasingly difficult to ignore.

For millennium, man learned about Life and Self via Oral Tradition from people in small groups he knew and would be inclined to trust. Family. Clan. Tribe. Lodge.

Reputation has meaning when everyone has a visible history of one another. We have a natural inclination to trust, It is in our bones at birth. As our world evolved, institutions changed in ways that are not visible at first glimpse, or second. In our western culture, Trust takes a back seat to pressures, demands, and Enforced institutions.

This was not always so.

Any individual with an ax to grind, or acting untrustworthy in a small group would reveal to all: The_Nature_of_the_Relationship.

In a small group it is easier to gage who is truthful, and who is lying. Today's large group culture, people shrug their shoulders when they should be confronting the crooks. Lying to themselves about their own power and submit, resigned to their fate. As we age, We tell each other even bigger lies such as: How do you even know how to know what Truth is? This is Self deception. Every child knows what truth is. We have been trained to ignore common sense and truth within and around us. The result has been an onslaught on Harmony, Decency and Self Determination. So, does this mean, all that we have to do is get small and things will get better? YES and NO. The small groups of old had skill sets that large groups today do not know how to make use of. Perhaps it is more accurate to say that the large scale of Modern Institutions has rendered useless the social tools that worked in a small village. Essentially, we have lost touch with what is going on around us. The task seems Enormous. It is. However, that should not deter us from improving our selves, and in turn, improving the world as a result. There are links to books and other media on this site that can help you figure out what in 'ell is really going on.

The Good News is: If we put the tools to use that were set aside, our world can be a far better place.

Today's system of news reporting is flawed. Corporate News has many a hidden "sponsor" or owner that has conflicting interests that regrettably, can not be easily seen. When History or information is distorted, our ability to make informed decisions is damaged. Some history never gets to the public at all. Where trust has been assumed, damage can and all too often does happen. Powerful interests with intent to remain in control of the political and economic futures of our culture are at work, literally selling you on what is good for you.

I believe History can not be fathomed without learning about one's self and mankind in general, relative to how things used to work, especially small group dynamics. Once you understand how small groups work, you will never again see the nightly news or the workings of government or corporate life in the same way. This would be very good for you and our culture, but not for parasites currently draining your wallet and your life.

At some point in your search, a few fearful types may accuse you of engaging in Conspiracy talk, getting in your face to scare your inquiring soul, to keep you in your place. Many people do this to themselves out of fear of what others might think of them. Avoid the Herd mentality. Follow your gut, seasoned with your heart. We have been conditioned to think it is dangerous to form our own opinions. This has always been so to varying degrees. Yet, nothing ever improves without applying new approaches to old challenges. To do the same thing and expect a different outcome is insanity. What would a 3 time N.Y. Teacher of the Year Know that You or I don't?

Due in large part to "Cooked" history, Young people today are unable to protect themselves from being drawn into yet another unnecessary war. In the Nuclear age, protecting our Country is important yet, after studying history I cannot find one instance in this last century where War left America, or the world, in a better, more stable condition. The Swiss employ a strategy that has worked for them so well that over seven hundred years has passed without them suffering (permitting) war. War does not suddenly happen, war is caused by the acts of men who erect scaffoldings that allow wars to blossom. Why don't we employ what the Swiss do? Consider the possibility that the political pressure from the war scaffolding erectors has snuffed out debate for the last 100 years.

Anyone can learn how to see into the future if one is willing to study history and self:

Follow your feelings. Much of what you will hear is presented first person. Instead of hearing what some invisible scribe has constructed for a faceless interest on what passes for the nightly news, You will be drinking from a wellspring of information, closer to each source. Many audio interviews on this site are in a first person account or a person once removed who I feel you will find accurate and trustworthy. Turn off your TV, spend an hour learning history every day. Human nature is the only constant. By learning the past history of man, you can map what will likely happen. Those of us willing to learn from history will have the gift of a personal time machine that looks forward into history with a high degree of probability.

History and Human Nature go together.

I invite you to read an example that contradicts a widely publicized conclusion of a Federally Appointed Committee that generated false conventional wisdom. The Truth is quite opposite what Major Media still reports, despite repeated notice given to the major media, Years have passed yet the Historical Record has not been updated. I will provide you with more Examples why I took the time to build this site. This represents what is going on in the our world, history-wise when power collides with truth.

I created this site to offer accurate History pointing to vital information that for whatever reason is lost. Sites marked with a (*) have audio content should you prefer to listen.

Yet another example: Allen W. Dulles said of the American People in the 1964 Fulbright committee reporting to the U.S. Senate: "Don't Worry, No one Reads Anymore" (IOW, Our dirty secrets are safe) "no one will learn of this, save a few historians." What was the occasion? Francis Gary Powers U-2 was NOT shot down, It ran out of fuel. On purpose. Not an Official purpose. Something else. One could conclude the Official version has been a Lie for over 40 years. See: Sabotaging Peace

The true story sits hidden in plain site in the Congressional Record for the last 4 decades and not a single branch of the Main Stream Media corrects this misleading History that fueled the Cold War to even greater heights and destroyed Ike's Crusade for Peace? Hello???

Fine. In that case, We will listen, learn, and pass on what we know to the next generation. Perhaps in time, mankind will catch on to the lethal, destructive games being played at our expense in the name of Civilization.

Me? No. It is my Great Great Grandfather Newel Butterfield Wilson.War Hardened. Age 23.
