Ellis Paul in Town

By Christina Stock Vision Editor­­

E

llis Paul is a gifted singer/songwriter. Though some may refer to him as a folksinger, he is more.

For lack of a better word, he is a singular storyteller, a musician whose words reach out from inside and yet also express the feelings, thoughts and sensibilities that most people can relate to in one way or another regardless of age or upbringing.

His music has been shared with a wider audience as well, through commercials, documentaries, TV shows and in the soundtracks of several blockbuster films, among them three by the Farrelly Brothers “Hall Pass” (starring Owen Wilson and Alyssa Milano), “Me, Myself, & Irene” (starring Jim Carrey) and “Shallow Hal” (starring Jack Black and Gwyneth Paltrow). Peter Farrelly summed up the sentiments of all those who have come to know and appreciate Paul’s music by referring to him as “a national treasure.”

One of Paul’s greatest inspirations is Woody Guthrie. There’s likely no greater evidence of how Guthrie’s insights and humanity have rubbed off on Paul than in this particularly telling tribute from Nora Guthrie. “A singer songwriter is only as good as the times he reflects,” she said in praise of Paul. “In times like these, when so many nuts are running the show, it’s comforting

Reverend Horton

By Christina Stock Vision Editor­­

A

merican rockabilly band Reverend Horton Heat will play a show at The Liberty, 312 N Virginia Ave., on Sunday, May 17. The Reverend Horton Heat hails from Dallas, Texas, and the band’s sound is described as “country-fed punkabilly.” The band began its journey in 1985 and has never looked back. Well known for its high-energy and often humorous lyrics,

Courtesy Photo to know that Ellis Paul is actually holding our sanity on his own stage! Wise, tender, brilliant and biting, Ellis is one of our best human compasses, marking in melodies and poems where we’ve been and where we might go if we so choose to. Personally Ellis, I’m goin’ where you’re goin’!”

Where Paul is “goin’” is to practically every place a microphone beckons and a crowd of the folk faithful awaits. In this case, to Roswell, New Mexico.

Ellis Paul is going to perform at Pecos Flavors Winery on May 15, 7-9 p.m. For more information call 627-6265.

the band has gained recognition in the mainstream with songs in films, television, commercials and video games. More than 25 years later, the band is headlining about 150 shows a year with band leader Jim Heath tearing up the stage for a loyal fan base.

“We’ve been able to travel all over the world and play shows with music icons in historic venues.

We’ve headlined so many sold out shows in some of the world’s most famous venues,” says Jim Heath, founder of the band. “We’ve appeared on major network TV shows and had our music used in countless films and TV shows. We’ve played some of the biggest festivals in the world and got to hang around with some of the biggest stars in history. Not too long after some major label A&R lady told us that we were not right for a major label – we got a major label deal. People used to laugh at rockabilly. They don’t laugh anymore.”

Reverend Horton Heat signed with Victory Records in 2012 and an album titled “Rev” was released in January 2014. The band’s music has made appearances in video games such as “Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 3”, “Guitar Hero II” and in a number of TV shows and movies. They are currently on a touring schedule across the US and recently performed in the major music festival, Coachella. Jim Heath holds the status as one of the best rock guitarists at work today and confirms — he is one heck of a showman, who is not about to let an audience go home disappointed.

Reservations start at $25. For more information on The Liberty, to become a member, or how to attend an event, visit thelibertyinc.com or call 575-627-2121.

This is not your grandpa’s metal - TurtleFEST 6.5

By Christina Stock Vision Editor­­

T

he times of heavy metal being part of a wild and unhealthy lifestyle are over. Well, the unhealthy part at least. TurtleFEST 6.5 attracts a new kind of heavy metal fan and a new generation. Unity Center’s Bobby Garcia is excited to host Roswell’s biggest music festival on May 15 at the Unity Center again. Garcia says, “We wanted to have it earlier, but we could not get bands who were up to par, so we rescheduled and have now two touring packages that are playing that night. I am happy how much it has grown this year, I had over 20 bands hit me up to open for this show and that’s really amazing, since the majority of them were from El Paso, Albuquerque, Lubbock and a lot of small towns in between.”

Garcia says, “TurtleFEST started as The Unity Center’s biggest show, the name came from my brother Matt Garcia and me. We were trying to make something gimmicky that will catch peoples attention and Matt said “TurtleFEST” ‘cause everyone loves the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, and they are just like us outcast teens, who are seen by others as weird or don’t belong.”

The kids Garcia mentions are those who are Christian and give back to society and love the new Christian Punk/Heavy Metal style that developed in the past years.

Bands performing are War of Ages from Erie, Pennsylvania, Phinehas, The Death of an Era, Mouth of the South, The Animal in Me, Like Monroe, Darkness Divided, So it Begins, Rivalry and Amy’s not Breathing.

Mike Butler from the band Mouth of the South says, “Our band just started for fun in 2007, but now we see it as a full time ministry with music. We are foremost missionaries before being musicians or a business.” The band has been blazing trails with their fiery metalcore riffs and tenacious southern attitude. Though the band has evolved almost entirely from the original lineup and sound in 2007, the fervor is still there as is evidenced by their three self-released albums and well-established touring schedule. The bands release “Transparency” in 2013, which debuted at No. 10 on the iTunes metal chart, put Mouth of the South on the map as a groove-filled metalcore up-and-comer. The band has also become known for their relatable song writing and empathetic lyricism. Mouth of the South “bleeds” their music.

Gerard Mora of the Band Darkness Divided says, “Our band has been together since high school. In 2013, after graduating, we concentrated full time on our music. This is what we wanted to do, after getting more recognition in 2012, with the releases of our singles “Redeemer” and “Voyager.” Darkness Divided is an American Christian metalcore band from San Antonio, Texas. The band name is based on the Bible verse of Genesis 1:4, which reads “God saw that the light was good, and he separated the light from the darkness.” Combining elements from traditional metal bands and modern-day metalcore acts, the band offers an original and exciting sound in a rapidly flourishing metal scene. With more than 150 shows under their belts, Darkness Divided has developed an intense, high-energy live performance that has intrigued fans from clubs to festival stages across the United States, and has shared the stage with bands such as Haste the Day, Underoath, and For Today.” The band has released 3 EPs, and their first full-length album came out on Aug. 19 on Victory Records.

Tickets are available online at holdmyticket.com, presale tickets are being sold from the local bands Rivalry, Amy’s not Breathing and also at the door on the event day, May 15 at 5 p.m. Garcia says, that every TurtleFEST is part of a drive, volunteers who help out or participate can get discounts on the event or get in for free. This year it is going to be a food drive. If guests bring five cans of food for local food pantries, they get $5 off of the regular ticket price of $16.

Steampunk - Part I

By Mary Morgan Roswell Daily Record Intern

Have you ever wondered what it would be like to live in a different world, a world where the past and future mix?

If you did, you are either an artist or a fan of Victorian steam-powered futurism, called Steampunk. Many will hear the world Steampunk and think of the movie “Wild Wild West” with Will Smith or the Disney movie “Treasure Planet.”

As Tony Gage, a member of the Roswell Steampunk community said, Steampunk is “the intersection of science and romance.”

Steampunk has made a huge impact in the international art world combining pictures with stories.

The local radio show called Threnody airs on Sundays and covers Steampunk. The show, created by Tony Gage, Peter Powell, Christina Powell, and Michael Christopher, takes listeners on an adventure into the world of Steampunk.

Steampunk has appeared in many shows such as “Firefly,” the Japanese manga show “Fullmetal Alchemist” and more.

If steam power isn’t your choice for an alternate energy power then maybe Dieselpunk is for you. Dieselpunk tends to take place in the Apocalyptic realm.

The 2015 Roswell Filmfest & Cosmicon will have Steampunk celebrations all day long July 3. There will be classes on how to dance and look like a Steampunk fan, how to create a Steampunk character, the history of Steampunk, music and lifestyle.

For first impressions check out filmroswell.com and its Facebook page Roswell Filmiest & Cosmicon.

Side Streets of Roswell

KEEPERS OF THE PAST

By Larry Knadle

P

revious articles have recalled downtown Roswell on Main Street. The next two in the series will recall the numerous businesses that were on the “side streets.”

These include primarily First, Second, Third and Fourth streets, plus Richardson and Virginia. There were very few businesses on the eastwest streets, south of First and north of Fifth, although there were a few.

Let’s start with First Street — here we find Ace Barber Shop, Louie’s Pool Hall, the Cut Rate Grocery and Roswell Rug and Upholstery Cleaners. Across Virginia was the (then) Southwestern Public Service Electrical Generating Plant. Many mornings in the winter, coming through town, there were columns of steam rising above that old plant. Sadly, it has

been completely removed. It was uniquely Roswell’s.

Now, crossing Main to the west, we find many more. The City Sewing Machine Exchange, Jay Grear Accoustics, the New Mexico State Employment Service, Ellett Motor Co’s used car lot, (Hudson Cars and Diamond T Trucks). The Roswell Fire Department, a couple of residences and at the end, on the south side, Magnolia Petroleum Co Land and Geological Department. I am reasonably sure that building still exists and is still the office of oil people.

Second Street going east from Main Street, we find the Roswell Barber Shop, the Arvil Johnson Boot and Shoe Hospital, Ed Hubbard’s Tailorfine Clothes (I graduated from the Roswell High School with the daughter of Ed Hubbard, Glynelle).

Quick Care of Roswell

Hours: Monday-Friday, 7:30 a.m.-5 p.m.

Get treated. Get better.

That’s our priority.

12 | Vision Magazine | Thursday, May 7, 2015

Then there is the Central Barber Shop, Burton’s Shoe Repair, the Tepee Café, the Furniture Mart, Bragg Furniture Co, Joe Shamas Food Market, Furniture Mart warehouse, Smith Auto Repair, Independent Key Shop, Pat Baldinell Loans, the Blancet Hotel (building still there), Ritz Barber Shop the Paul Carrigan’s Sheet Metal Shop.

Carrigan’s building is still there with part of the sign visible. The northwest corner was a service station with C.C. Holley listed as owner. — That building is now being restored.

Crossing Virginia was the Del Rio Hotel with it’s Top Hat Cocktail Lounge and Coffee Shop, Levers Brothers Wholesale Liquors, Charles Ilfeld beer distributors, Herring Produce and the Roswell Trading Company.

Now to West Second, which like the east side, being the highway, was heavily stocked with businesses. Firestone

Stores was on the south side, behind the Roswell Drug Store on the corner, with the hotel upstairs. I remember seeing a Diesel Electric train on display in Firestone’s window before Christmas one year.

How badly I wanted that cool setup. Across the alley was the American Café (owned by the Metaralis’) Gamble’s Hardware Store, Western Union, Claude Forster Furniture, Elk Barber Shop, Roswell Auto Company, Roswell’s Ford dealer. Also graduated from RHS with the owner of Roswell Auto-Sue Farnsworth. Across on the north side was Falconi Electrical Service, Supreme Radio. Yes, the Roger’s family made a good living repairing those old tube radio sets AND car radios.

Car radios, also being tube sets, were not very reliable in those days.

They quit rather regularly, and who remembers the big, tall console radios we all sat

and listened to “Amos n Andy”, “Your Hit Parade”, the “Jack Benny show,” the “Bob Hope show?” We listened, but we were all staring at the radio while doing that! Ironic that now we do stare at the “tube.”

West of Supreme was Hinkle Motor Supply, where the Roswell Chamber building is now). The Elks Lodge was across Richardson to the alley and the La Vone Beauty Shoppe, Rodden’s “Kidograph” Photography, U S Army and Air Force Recruiting Station, Ward’s Upholstery Shop, and Roswell Ice Co. (Not the main plant – we’ll get to that.)

On the south side, First 200 block was Bill Deane’s Conoco No 2.

Bill Deane also was the second building south of First on South Main, before he took over the entire corner. Lowrey Auto Co., (Chrysler-Plymouth), Bill’s Café, Berkey Bowling Alley (where George’s Carpet is now), Mead’s Fine Bread and Tad Platt’s Auto Service and

George Miller Auto Repair.

As pointed out earlier, in addition to having quite a few dry cleaners, Roswell had many barber and beauty shops, scattered all over town, but primarily on the primary streets downtown. Most of the barber shops had shoe shine stands, also. Lots of memories watching those “shoe shine” boys rub the polish onto the shoes, then snapping the shine cloths when finishing them off. Another one of those things one never forgets. A unique sound, to be sure.

This series is about downtown Roswell, the main business district, so I will stop here. Businesses went much further east and west from Main back in those days. Perhaps that can be for another article, after we covered Third, Fourth, Fifth streets, Richardson and Virginia.

Bringing the desert inside - Rachel Hayes - Artist without limits

By Christina Stock Vision Editor­­

T

he Roswell Museum and Art Center is the host for the Roswell Artist-In-Residence lecture of Rachel Hayes at 5:30 p.m. on Friday, May 15. The lecture is free of charge and a reception follows afterward.

Hayes received a BFA from the Kansas City Art Institute in fiber and an MFA from Virginia Commonwealth University in painting. She has attended the Marie Walsh Sharpe Space Program in Brooklyn, New York, the Roswell Artist-In-Residence Program in Roswell, the Sculpture Space Residency, in Utica, New York, and the Art Omi, International Artists’ Residency in Omi, New York.

Hayes is the recipient of the Augustus SaintGaudens Memorial Fellowship in Sculpture, a Virginia Museum of Fine Arts Professional Fellowship in Sculpture and a Charlotte Street Fund Award.

She has shown her work at the Sculpture Center, New York; Nerman Museum of Contemporary Art, Kansas; Roswell Museum of Art; Indianapolis Museum of Art, Indiana; SaintGaudens National Historic Site, New Hampshire and in Lower Manhattan New York City, New York with BravinLee Programs.

Hayes completed a large outdoor commissions for the Rosslyn Business Improvement District in Rosslyn, Virginia, near Washington D.C., and for Artsbeat in Columbus, Georgia.

Hayes is in Roswell with her husband Eric and two children Wyatt and Shea for the 2014/15 Roswell-Artist-In-Residence program.

Walking into her studio is like walking into a rainbow of colors. There is a deep feminine aerial spirit in Hayes’ art. The seemingly chaotic blend of material and colors, looms in the corner of a

studio and a dominant sewing machine show the creative artists work in the moment. Hayes says she had a calling since she was 5 years old, “Art was the only thing I was good at. I could be competitive, strive to achieve more.”

Hayes says that her

mother was friends with a local art teacher who had graduated from the Kansas Art Institute. The family knew it was a good school with a great liberal arts program and they supported her to attend.

Hayes had planned first to leave her class in the fiber department for a sculpture class, but her teacher encouraged her instead to use her sewing machine from her work with fiber to create sculptures of abstract art in cloth. Hayes says, “I was hooked and didn’t look back.”

One of her art pieces has lace curtains from her grandmother incorporated, others intriguing Indian cloth with mirrors and embroidery.

She says, “When I was younger, my style was more minimalistic/geometric. Maturity changed me and having children.

I am opening up to new structures, material and design.”

Hayes’ exhibit at the Roswell Museum and Art Center will incorporate also print-outs of her art in the landscape of Southeast New Mexico. The photos show the connection between her art and earth and sky. Hayes Art is a joining of individual segments creating something new out of some-

It bounces and flows, flutters and sways, even bundled up waiting for the transport to the museum to be unfolded — her projects show life and energy. Hays says her upcoming exhibit will mirror this: “I will set it up, so the entire exhibit will talk to the viewer, just as much as the individual work.” Some of Hayes art pieces are meant to be environmental art – their canvas is the vastness of the open desert of White Sands and the arid high desert of the Pecos Valley captured on photos. Others are small and clear, at home in the bounds of frames on the walls of the studio and gallery.

Hayes steps with her art on a bridge that leads from the known to the airspace of materialized art that interacts with wind, sun, clouds, light and shadow.

Hayes sees a big change in her since she became a mother. “I do try new things now, that I would have not done before. I do not dwell on the small, but focus on the big picture. Maturity is freedom.”

One day she was walking and found a large branch she wanted to use for her outdoor projects.

Instead, she decided to bring the branch indoors.

She says, “A couple years

ago, I would have not done that. But now, I try new ideas.”

Hayes is looking forward to explore the area around Roswell in her spare time. She says, her own hometown, in similar size to Roswell, hasn’t such a unique history.

She has many projects on the horizon, but needs to find space to create. She says that the town feels to be open for the arts.

Hayes finds inspiration not only in nature, but also in the displays of the Roswell Museum and Art Center. Living and working for the last year in Roswell, Hayes says, that her and her husband enjoyed visiting family friendly fiestas and parties. “In Brooklyn everything started at 10 p.m., we would go out after work which was great.

But with the kids, it is so nice to have those earlier times in Roswell.”

Hayes has already a new project planned after her exhibit at the Taubman Studio in Roanoke, Virginia. It will encompass over 30 feet. Hays says, “Visitors of this exhibit will walk through a kaleidoscope of colors, almost as if they were in a rainbow.”

New Mexico Independent Music taking back Sundance

New New Mexico Sounds

By Klas Åhman

I

t’s been a busy spring. Since my last report I’ve been on adventures far and beyond, abandoning the “real world” to go on another tour with my band Secret Circus.

We started our adventure meeting up with our good old friends Gleewood from Ruidoso to co-host and co-produce a weeklong event on Main Street, Park City, Utah, at the heart of Sundance Film Festival. We called our event “Atticus Indie Fresh Brew” in honor of the coffee shop/ bookshop that donated the use of their space to our cause, and pushed the hashtag #TakingBackSundance — using the # is the multi-media technology for linking up and categorizing things on social media like Twitter, Facebook, YouTube, Instagram, etc.

It started with a weekend full of music. Secret Circus, which for this tour

consisted of only myself and my twin brother Joel, played five shows, and we ran the sound for more then 20 shows for a long list of bands and artists, and dealt with the endless amount of work producing and hosting an event this ambitious.

For some reason I also felt inspired to stay up all night Saturday writing music with a bottle of local “High West” Whiskey and my guitar in the RV. I wrote a new song called “Too Late To Die Young.”

To those who say we musicians are lazy people who should get haircuts and jobs, let me describe Monday! We’d planned for an afternoon break in the tight live music schedule to all (Secret Circus + Gleewood) meet and shoot some video. So the day started with me running sound for four artists, with much needed help of the best coffee

his editions artist to watch is Alia Guzman, a 15-year-old student at Hagerman Municipal Schools.

The soft-spoken young artist says she used to sketch until her father gave her paints.

She is inspired by Leonardo da Vinci, with whom she connects on a deeper level. She says, just like him, she has had a rough start in life. Her art is a way of communicating.

Guzman says, “When I get a connection, I draw it and make it my own.”

Even if others made fun of her painting it didn’t matter, she said, because painting and expressing herself meant more.

in Utah. One of the artists performing that day was a fantastic local talent named Robyn Cage.

I decided to include her in our plans. So Robyn and I walked up to the bus station and met up with Joel, who’d taken the morning off to glue the headstock of his Gibson for the second time of the tour and Jhett and Callie.

We set up cameras and mics around a brightly painted, old grand piano that sits quietly in a corner of the bus station. We then captured a fantastic, sultry performance of her original song “Theatre Noir” (YouTube.com/SecretCircusVideo). The video ends with an epic opera style note that gives me goose bumps every time I see it. After setting up, shooting, wrapping, and packing up that indie guerrilla shoot in 30 minutes flat, we hopped on the bus that head down Main Street,

Guzman has two distinct styles she is leaning toward. One uses the splatter and drip technic, shown in her tree painting. This style was made famous by Jackson Pollock, the leading figure in the abstract expressionistic movement of the early 20th century. What is impressive is that she takes the art of Anime of the 21st century and makes it her own in a similar abstract version. Her other style has an airy feather-like nature that in its softness is misleading.

Precision and love for details is shown in both of Guzman’s styles.

and shot a video of Gleewood performing their song “Whiskey Sue” live on the bus. In the video, you’ll see Gleewood finishing their performance just in time to get off the bus outside Atticus Coffee to go in and set up their instruments for their headline show, which Joel and I also ran sound for and filmed! The later video was released on April 20 on Secret Circus video. This was all one Monday, and I had three broken ribs — different story, related to previously mentioned bottle of High West Whiskey celebration of the birth of mentioned new song.

Anyway, my point is, #indielife doesn’t only mean Instagram pictures of beer in the sun and selfies at late night parties (@der_klabautermann), but also passion and dedication to our art, and we do work very hard! That, and subscribe to my YouTube channel YouTube.

com/SecretCircusVideo! ;-) Recently, and soon to be released videos include performances by Dustin Hamman, Silver City, Robin Scott, Roswell, Magpie, Denver, Jim Dixon, Hobbs, Jones & Miles, Ruidoso, Joel of Secret Circus, etc. Our video season will end with a Secret Circus duo performance of our new song “The Excuses We Make.” We shot it on a loft above Stellar Coffee in downtown Roswell.

We couldn’t have done it without the help of Keith Jones, 4K Media, local artist Robin Scott, Stellar Coffee baristas Joel and Rachel Cederberg. The video will be released on our YouTube channel May 25.

Sharing is caring.

I’m happy to report that the community Facebook Page “Roswell Music Scene” has turned into a great thing! The

page quickly become the posting wall for band members and musicians looking for new collaborations, a channel for indie promotion, local discussions like “should local bands get payed to play” — the answer is yes. Yes, they should.

Otherwise many of us won’t be able to afford to practice our art. It’s also become a great calendar and guide for local music events. People from all over our community have responded and added to the page and even the city government noticed some discussions and have invited select ambassadors to continue the discussions in city hall, in an attempt to nurture and promote the Roswell music scene and incorporate it into our blossoming art scene.

Barbara Latham’s ‘Cactus Dancer’

History

From the Vault

Roswell Museum and Art Center

By Sara Woodbury RMAC Curator of

Collections and Exhibitions

E

very museum has its curatorial mysteries, whether it’s not knowing the original title of a particular work, the artist who made it, or even exactly when it was acquired. Today, we’ll begin looking at one of these mystery works, Cactus Dancer by Barbara Latham (1896-1989). Unlike most of these articles, this story is a twopart adventure, so be sure to stay tuned for the second half next month.

Originally from Walpole, Massachusetts, Latham moved with her family to Norwich, Connecticut as a child. She studied art at the Pratt Institute in Brooklyn and at the Arts Student League Summer School in Woodstock, New York, where her teachers included modernist Andrew Dasburg. In 1925, she visited Taos for the first time while on a trip to Colorado and New Mexico.

She moved to Taos in 1926, where she worked as a designer for Vancil Foster Greeting Cards.

During her stay out there, she met and married fellow artist

Howard Cook (19011980). Over the next several years, they traveled around Europe, Mexico, Africa, and other places, eventually settling in Talpa, near Taos.

Throughout her career, Latham worked as both an independent artist and as an illustrator for greeting cards and children’s books.

As a painter, she worked in mediums as varied as watercolor, egg tempera, and oil. She was also a skilled printmaker, creating block prints and lithographs. Stylistically, Latham alternated between a highly detailed, naturalistic-looking style and more a simplified, abstract mode, depending on the nature of the medium and the work itself.

Regardless of whether she was making a print or a children’s illustration, Latham’s work is often recognized for its sense of fluidity, color, and humor.

Cactus Dancer is actually one of four works in the Museum collection. Three of these works are prints, while the fourth is a watercolor study. They each depict a fragment of a cactus skeleton with a

lipstick-stained cloth behind it. The cactus skeleton has a vaguely human-like shape, and appears to be leaping or dancing across the page. The background consists of abstracted, cast shadows in different colors, with several hues overlapping one another. In both subject and style, the works closely resemble a group of paintings that Latham did in the 1940s that feature anthropomorphic pieces of wood and other objects such as

lipstick-stained lace, flowers, and crosses.

Dreamlike in quality, these paintings have always intrigued me, so naturally I became very interested in the Cactus Dancer prints.

I first saw these prints while I was perusing the Museum’s computer database several months ago. I immediately became interested in the works, but found that we had little information on them.

At that time, they were all called Untitled, and classified as

lithographs. The actual dates for the pieces were also unknown, but that wasn’t altogether surprising, as Latham rarely dated her works. According to the object files, they were all found in the collection during a general inventory made in 2009, but there was no documentation describing how or when they first arrived at the Museum. Both Howard Cook and Barbara Latham made several large donations of their works to the Vision Magazine |

RMAC in the 1960s, 1970s, and 1980s, so it seems likely that the four pieces were part of these substantial gifts. Aside from these few facts and assumptions, little was known about the prints, so it was time to do some research.

Next month, I’ll tell you about what I’ve learned, and reveal how some microfilm from Washington D.C. helped to illuminate a couple of mysteries.

UFOlogy

How varied might alien life forms be ?

Looking Up

B

By Donald Burleson

y definition, the phenomenon of life is self-replicating chemistry. A rock isn’t alive and can’t make copies of itself. A bacterium is alive and can. In any given planetary setting, all it takes for life to appear is the eventual formation (even if this may take hundreds of millions of years to occur) of a single self-copying molecule, which, in a predation-free environment, readily leads to billions of other such molecules.

On our planet, this has happened by way of complex hydrocarbon compounds, in which the chief ingredient is carbon and the bond-

ing element is hydrogen. These compounds are the essential building blocks of DNA, the basis for all known life on Planet Earth.

But it’s a very large and very old universe, and given countless billions of places where chemistry complex enough to form self-replicating molecules may exist, one has to suppose that a vast number of possibilities exist also, as to what evolving life could look like, conceivably taking forms greatly different from anything we’ve ever seen.

For example, on some strange planet somewhere, the chemistry of

life might be based on silicon rather than carbon. Silicon has many of the same properties as carbon, including a capacity for forming many different kinds of strong chemical bonds.

Exit the “carbon” in “hydrocarbon.” And maybe exit the “hydro” too, because chemical bonds can form by way of fluorine as the connecting ion instead of hydrogen. For all we know, self-copying molecules might just as well be fluoro-silicons as hydrocarbons. Who knows what such life forms might be like?

Many scientists, however, have a long-standing and thoughtfully

derived “carbon bias.”

They have reason to think the complexities of DNA or something similar to DNA would more likely form spontaneously from carbon atoms than from silicon.

They may well be right, especially considering that, as we all know in the field of UFO studies, the alien life forms appearing in UFO reports are generally somewhat similar in form to humans. By all accounts, for example, the Roswell UFO crash bodies were symmetrically arranged biological entities having two arms, two legs, and one head with two eyes.

This suggests not only

that these creatures are probably made of cells containing hydrocarbon DNA, but that in fact they most likely share a great number of genes and overall genetic organization with us.

It’s anybody’s guess what this might imply.

(Do aliens and we have some common genetic past?)

My strong suspicion is that by now our government, acting in great secrecy, has extracted DNA from alien bodies and sequenced it to find how genetically different these creatures are, or aren’t, from us.

Indeed it would be negligent not to have done this. Someone some-

where is sitting on the greatest scientific discovery of all time, one that might help clarify our own place in the cosmic scheme of things.

We all have a right to know about this. But over the years government has bred a culture of excessive and counter-productive keeping of secrets.
