When I was at university studying psychology, I was told by one of my lecturers that he had been sectioned for 6 months suffering from schizophrenia. This would have been back just before his "Turquoise Period" as its called on Wikipedia when he was going around telling anyone who would listen he was the messiah. If I remember rightly, the schizophrenia was diagnosed as being in remission after which he made a beeline for the crop circles where he could be found running around with his aquamarine clad followers.

I have read one of his books "Tales from the Time Loop" and it’s clear he is quite a good writer. I also watched a documentary about him on the BBC when he was being investigated for anti Semitism. He obviously has a gift for public speaking, perhaps not in the same league as Terence Mckenna, but still pretty good.

Having the ability to write and captivate an audience has allowed him to make a career out of his ideas and garner a loyal following. He's successfully tapped into the whole crop circle/UFO/earth mysteries sub-culture and found a receptive audience. There are others in the psychedelic community doing the same thing.

The Bilderberg group, Trilateral commission, and Council on foreign relations control much of western world affairs. The CIA, KGB, and recently Chinese are also big players in geopolitics, along with anybody who has nukes....
