    for #7

    7)”Well if anti-racist is a codeword for anti-White, then YOU are saying that racist = White? That is patently FALSE because ALL races are capable of committing Racism. I am an anti-Racist!”

    I usually repeat some form of, “But nobody is flooding Japan with non-Japanese, giving them special rights, healthcare and free education paid for by the Japanese … (add at least one more ethnicity), No, this solution to the “Race Problem” you anti-Whites think you’re solving is done in ONLY White countries, and ALL White countries. It’s Genocide.”

    And then they’re led into the next “trap” … they invariably try to interrogate me about “There’s no such thing as a White Country”. Ya’ll know the script for handling THAT one!

    Addendum: At the Express Scribe site linked above, there IS a Windows/PC version of the software. Since I only use Mac, I didn’t bother checking it out, but assume it has the same functionality. Maybe a PC user here could download and check it out, then report back.

    As for using it on the Mac, so far so good. And I’m covering more ground, faster, than trying to edit computer-transcribed files.

    I use the internal “notepad” of the Express Scribe software, and then cut/paste sections to a textedit rtf document. I don’t trust leaving my work all in one place, in case something goes wrong. Another advantage to doing it this way is you don’t need to switch between Express Scribe and a Word processing software. Using the sound controls while typing into the notepad is all native, and keeps the work flowing smoothly. Every paragraph or two, I just cut/paste into another WP doc, and then go back to Express Scribe to continue, and then repeat that process as I transcribe more paragraphs.

    Note to all interested in the Transcription Project — I’m tending to think that editing/repairing the machine-based audio-text transcriptions might be more work than just straight transcriptions. The latter would have spacing/spelling/etc. errors processed by our BRAINS rather than a machine, and if you’re reading this, you probably have a brain capable of doing this!

    OK, I did some searches yesterday for transcription software which would mimic the old mechanical tape kind, with foot-pedals, etc. I used to have one of those, by Olympus. I was shocked to see prices of $200 to $300, and most had features not needed for our project, and were designed for PCs, and not Macs.

    I use Macs, so I did another search and found FREE software!!! It’s here:

    http://www.nch.com.au/scribe/index.html

    There may also be PC versions of this, but since I don’t use PC, I didn’t even look. I’ve now got the software installed and am fiddling with it, in particular with “hotkeys” and “backstop” setting. Hotkeys can be configured to take the place of the foot pedal, and backstops are a setting which make the recording go back up to 6 seconds BEFORE where you paused, while typing.

    Again, going through a machine transcribed file and FIXING it is looking like more work than straight listen-type transcriptions … at least for me. Since using the machine-translated texts blackbyte has provided STILL requires close listening, while at the same time reading the rtf texts, I think that’s MORE work than just listen-type. Of course, I can type fairly well, and have done transcription work before for a book project. This is my opinion, results may vary.

    The main point here is that there is free software available that will expedite this job, and now Mac users have a link to it. If someone finds a PC version of this, I’m sure PC folk will be glad to know about it.

    I’m still working on FTWR 2. Been distracted by my prior project of extracting Horus’ “Gems” about “White Rabbit Psychology & Ecology”. There is another well known personality in the “WN Cult” who is preparing to write a book on this topic, and I wanted to get a lot of FTWR “Ideas” about that topic in front of him before it’s too late.

    I just cannot see any book or article about “White Rabbit Psychology & Ecology” being useful to us unless these quasi-‘mysterious’ aspects of what we are are taken into account. I don’t mean the “Nazi Int’l” stuff, I mean the stuff about White Rabbits being the CRAZY rabbits that behave like no other rabbit on earth. I’ll probably get this off my desk in a week. FYI

    Blackbyte:

    Just read your “Dan Brown” idea. Yeah, that’s one idea. Or, one could just spin it further down the Rabbit Hole with Alice! All sorts of interesting characters in there, in addition to Green Goddesses and Red Hippotami! I don’t think “Lewis Carrol” would give a damn…

    @BlackByte, I just emailed you a proofed edition of FTWR #2, FIRST TWO PARAGRAPHS. Let me know what you think of the proofing marks/techniques. I want to make this as easy as possible, by ensuring we’re all using a “standard” method.

    BTW: It required extremely close listening to make the edits I made. Much doesn’t come through correctly with machine transcription, but it’s better than manual for a base to work from! There are so many subtleties in those podcasts, that a TRUE transcription will necessarily require throwing away some of the stuff that comes across as “conversational”, or the final transcript will be semi-unreadable. Imho.

    @BlackByte

    Thanks for responding. I’ve downloaded the two rtfs and found a few typos in #1, but like you said, this is just starting. I’ll look at the rtf of #2 and compare it with the audio.

    Is that what you are recommending for the “proofing”? Reading the rtf, while listening, and then marking up? I want to “be on the same page” with what you suggest as a proofing technique, so pardon me if it sounds like a dumb question.

    Yes, Horus truly doesn’t realize how MUCH is packed into these things, or can’t remember. But who CAN remember? That’s the beauty of this project. I asked him for summaries, indexes, show outlines, etc. over a year ago. Stupid Frank Rabbit! This stuff just ROLLS out of him, and any of that stuff is going to have to be “distilled” from the audio. I don’t want to get in Horus’ way asking for that stuff. I want to “keep the channels clear” so MORE will come out.

    Blackbyte, it’s your aim to get the first 10 FTWR “in the can” as far as basic text transcriptions of the audio, and THEN talk about what to do with them, formatting wise & etc. Right? Then we can go over some of the thoughts I expressed earlier. Right?

    I would like to hear some feedback about the idea I proposed of a “Third Level” edition, which would be a far cry from a transcription, and would probably edit out more than half of the audio transcripts. Since my first read of the first few pages of #1 had a rather unusual effect, the effect of making SOME parts of it even more powerful than the audios, I’d be interested in whether others had that same impression. Now, on to read/listen compare on #2.

    I don’t know about the rest of you, you who have read blackbyte’s transcript of FTWR#1, but reading this in TEXT is having a totally different effect on me than the “mere audio”.

    Some of it seems out of place in text, but most of it is EVEN MORE POWERFUL in text.

    The implications of this (imo) are huge.

    Thanks HD. That worked fine.

    I’m asking myself a question we’ve all gotten in the habit of asking: “Why is this information being produced?”

    I’m seeing blackbyte introduce a “topic”, and display his (excellent) work, and the idea of a collective project.

    I’m seeing Genseric comment favorably, and noting that one “purpose” of transcribing FTWR would be to make it available to the Hearing Impaired pro-Whites. (good idea!)

    I’m seeing Coniglio weigh in with a thumbs-up to the project, and offer to do some work.

    I’m seeing myself talking about being both amazed, happy, and excited that this is “happening”, and then seeing myself ask “Why is this information being produced?”

    At this point I see it being useful to …

    1. the hearing impaired,
    2. to pro-Whites who get more out of text than audio,
    3. to ANYONE who doesn’t have the patience to “decode” Horus’ mind-bullets and put them in a context that conveys the true depth of what he’s saying (it’s taken me since he first floated #1 out until now to “get it”, and I’m still not finished.)

    … but I think if a transcription is LIMITED to the above, the work involved will not have had the volume turned up enough to reach a lot of ears.

    Do we want Horus’ work to be “limited” to BUGS “insiders”, and assorted Stormfront riff-raff?

    Why not think in terms of several “levels” of this project. The first may be a “blocky paragraph transcription”, a second level might be a “cleaned up” version with graphics, and a THIRD version might be a highly-edited “book” that is far beyond a mere transcription of audio.

    Now I’m going to propose HERESY!

    For that THIRD level … edit OUT much of the transcripts and winnow it down to the basic ideas Horus is communicating. Keep those bits “intact”, but LOSE a lot of the nazi international, Babylon mythology and similar stuff (which might work in audio, but will distract in type).

    For the THIRD level …. only use a small subset of FTWR’s (while still having a total transcript available to those who want it). Use only those that deal with the basic message of how to do practical politics from the standpoint of white rabbits.

    For the THIRD level …. think in terms of a true book, not just transcriptions of audio. A highly edited and formatted book that does, in print, what the CORE of Horus’ work does in audio. But in the print version, make it impossible to “miss” some of the subtle stuff that takes more than a few “listens” of audio to “get”.

    Of course it would all start with basic transcripts, however formatted. But could this become something way bigger than a set of transcripts? I think so.

    What say ye?

    Sorry to be a pest. I don’t assume that I “know the only truth” about how this should be formatted. I wish I did, but then once I thought I did, I’m sure “someone” here would call me out on that assumption!

    I also don’t want myself, or anyone interested in working on this, to waste time with working out and using formatting that may distort the MESSAGE by using an unsuitable MEDIUM of formatting.

    So, IF anyone here agrees that BIG BLOCKS OF TEXT don’t quite support the spirit of Horus’ work, I’m open to suggestions of WHAT WILL WORK, but hope to get them BEFORE sinking time into it.

    Once some “conventions” are hammered out, I’m willing to make this a “several hour a day” project. Like I said above, I’ve wanted something like this for myself, and was going to do some of it for myself. How wonderful that it can be for EVERYBODY.

    Hell, we can even have annotated versions, just like the Talmud! And we can sit around arguing about which interpretation is “correct”, ie “PilPul”

    @BlackByte: I can see one problem with your FORMATTING already. Not saying it’s “bad”, but saying that long paragraphs don’t quite transmit the “feel” of the thing being presented. All the words are there, but it may not be RECEIVED in that format because, as “someone” has said,

    “No matter how good a book is, you have to break the mentality that makes people put it down after looking at the title.”

    I’m not talking about the title here. I’m pointing out that big blocks of text, however accurate and interesting, scare the crap out of most people who aren’t in love with 18th century prose stylings.

    Blackbyte, can I take a stab at reformatting the “paragraph-ness” of the current version into something that might better convey the message? After all, in this case and most others, the MEDIUM of the text formatting truly AFFECTS the Message. Old Marshal was onto something with that. And we don’t want to make Horus look like some Mommy Professor by formatting his stuff like Mommy Professor would in her tomes.

    @BlackByte: God this is synchronicity/serendipity. I was taking a long walk this morning, with iPhone playing FTWR (early episodes), and I was thinking I WANT TO TRANSCRIBE ALL THIS. And I actually started making a few notes about a structure for “getting it out there”.

    We BUGSers seem to think somewhat alike!

    My reason’s for doing this are simple: Horus talks FAST, especially in the early FTWR’s, and it’s not easy to “Get It” on one pass. I’ve listened to several of them 5 and more times, and am STILL taking notes on things I missed. So a TRANSCRIPTION avoids that problem, at least the difficulty of HEARING all the ideas/memes that are embedded in Horus’ Jackhammer-like delivery. That White Rabbit has one FAST MOUTH! Dunno how BIG it is, but it’s way too FAST for “White Normals” to deal with.

    The OTHER reason is that many people we want to influence GET things by reading rather than listening. Don’t want to bore you with why (see Marshal McCluhan for that), but it’s just the way things are.

    OK, now that I’ve finished my (NOT) amazing schpiel about being amazed to find this effort underway … how can I do my part. I guess a start would be to read ALL the above posts, and see how blackbyte has done/formatted/etc. the job on FTWR#1

    Also, I don’t know how to do PM’s in this forum, if they are even possible. Horus knows my email, so if you want to ASSIGN a particular FTWR to me, and cannot contact me otherwise via this site, perhaps go through him. Not that he needs more WORK, or anything ….

    @beefcake:

    Yeah, that recent disciplinary action (read: spanking) of BUGSers was spot on. And you just repeated it. Let the MESSAGE do it’s job before mucking up a space with too many spears and short swords, unless the anti-Whites need some discipline they didn’t GET from the Video.

    I’m trying to follow Simmons’ lead in posting to “pro-White” sites, and not “Hammer ’em with the Mantra”, but rather do what Bo Sears at http://www.resistingdefamation.org calls “Going Beyond”. “Going Beyond” is a way of CAPTURING an existing energy flow, of whatever kind, even anti-White, and RIDING that to the next step, or the conclusions innate in what they are saying. I’m no longer wasting time trying to “convert” what Bob calls AMPR’s to The Mantra (which, in their eyes still has a ‘Bob Problem’), but am playing of the energy of their incessant whining DESCRIPTIONS of “the problem”, and challenging them to “go beyond” and come up with some useful tools to deal with it, and show us if their idea/tool WORKS.

    I guess this is a type of “recruitment” effort, but not necessarily for BUGS. It’s more like challenging them to move beyond DISCUSSING. I have zero optimism that many will “bite”, but ya never know! That thread is here, http://www.theoccidentalobserver.net/2012/04/gunter-grass-and-israel-passing-it-over-at-the-passover/?show=comments#comment-68568 , and Gregor is doing the talking at about 4:42 on April 8.

    Feedback from BUGSers? Am I wasting my time? Am I wasting YOUR time even talking about this?
