Thank You!

Many people have been involved with the EARS Project through the years. Some of them have helped overtly, some of them provided inspiration and advice and might not even know that they did it. But I wanted to take this opportunity to thank everyone I can think of.

This is not a complete list and probably will never be a complete list, but I will definitely be adding to it. If I forgot you, don't worry, you'll be here soon. It's not you, it's just a matter of brain bandwidth. It takes a while to physically remember even though my spirit never forgets you.

The names are presented in no particular order.

Jesus Christ, of course, leads the list.

Bob Mueller for helping me get into paranormal topics in the first place. Thanks also for the song "El Chupa."

The Lightside UFO Study group in general for all their help and insight, not only physically but spiritually. You've really shown me the meaning of persistence and standing up for what you believe in even when the world can't see it.

Kathy from the Lightside for being a gentle spiritual inspiration and for reflecting God's love in a real way.

Sue from the Lightside for teaching me a lot of things about healing. You're a lot of fun to observe because you know so much that is new to me.

Sandy from the Lightside for many personal conversations with the "ashtray command" and for being a drive to action.

Diana from the Lightside for a great personality and for the technical help with everything. You are always fun to be around and your story constantly inspires me to walk by faith.

Bonnie from the Lightside for re-introducing me to Lea and for being a big light all the time. Actions speak louder than words and your actions shout from the mountaintops.

Russ from the Lightside for being a male friend from TLS! Thanks for letting me stay at your house and focus on my mission whenever I needed to. It's nice having you around to balance out all those women and just talk "guy stuff."

Diann Fieldhack for taking the time to edit the book Crux Decussata and making my personal bio manageable. You take my words and put that final polish on them, helping me see things from a new perspective and keep my feet on the ground.

Gail for her very kind words about Crux Decussata and for "getting it" and for spreading the word. Not just the word about the book existing, but using the words inside themselves to inspire others.

Amanda Aquino for the EARS logo and just for letting me watch you paint angels. Man, you are an amazing artist! Thanks also for the many nights of making music with the green ovation guitar. Your songs still play in my heart even though they were all in Spanish and I still don't know the words.

The band Dream Theater for musical inspiration. Do you guys have a hidden camera or something following my life?

Kevin Ricard.

Kevin Sturgis for many spiritual talks on the shores of Long Lake.

Pastor Joseph Brath of the Kewaskum House of Prayer. Even though you might not agree with EARS books, you are always there for a good Biblical discussion even if it takes three or four hours.

Bill Benson for having Benson's Hideaway there in the first place. Not only is it a great meeting place to talk UFOs without the usual ridicule we get from the rest of the world, but you yourself have given me a lot of insight throughout the years from the first time I walked in there as a UFO skeptic to ALL your help with advertising EARS at your place today.

Heidi Hollis for being an inspiration throughout the years.

Linda Moulton Howe for chatting late that one night at the Lone Star room of the year 2001 Eureka Springs UFO conference. Just listening that night has inspired me for years. Also for your bold presentation at the 2006 conference.

Jenny Hoppe for taking the time to critique the original EARS book.

John Hoppe for all the great experiences with UFOWisconsin.

Noah Voss for continuing the dreams of the w-files and UFOWisconsin sites.

Suzanne for being there when I started the w-files and for bringing me through some dark times, always reminding me to focus my eyes on Jesus Christ. I still think you're still the only lawyer I'll ever trust.

Pastor John LaGalbo and the Mount Zion Christian Church in Lake Geneva, Wisconsin for a place to return to Jesus Christ after years of agnosticism. Thanks also to you for talking me into being baptized as an adult in Lake Geneva and opening my eyes to a lot of Biblical truth.

Elim Tabernacle in Milwaukee, Wisconsin for baptizing me again, this time, as you guys put it, in "Jesus' name." I still don't understand fully what happened, but it somehow connected me directly to God and to Jesus in ways I never thought possible. The gift of the Holy Spirit came through you and whenever I think of that day it gives me goosebumps.

John Mussara for bringing me to Elim Tabernacle in the first place and for helping me see that Jesus Christ is very real and active in my life.

Susan Robbins for helping me get the EARS books into the library catalog and the whole West Bend library staff for their help with advertising EARS events and creating Crux Decussata.

Steev and the whole Kewaskum library staff for their constant help, advertising EARS events and especially for allowing me to print color flyers for events. That color printer sure helped with the Crux Decussata graphics too.

Diane for hooking up again this lifetime. It's so good to see you again and you give my life that special light again. You constantly remind me that perfect love has no fear.
