(8:00 am) 
WS -- What if it becomes possible to ask about that which I was asking before? 
HF -- Check Mike's question. 
WS -- Here it is [by e-mail this morning]: 

>Hi William, 
>Are you and Fujiko going to Chung Pyung ? 
>When ? Reiko & I are going April 17 but only for 10 days. 
>I will be meeting her in Korea on her way back from Japan. 
>If you are going at that time is there anything I can bring you from the US ? 
>So, I have a question...."What is the significance of Hale-Bopp ?" 
>God Bless, 
>Mike 
 
WS -- There is the message and questions from Mike 
HF -- He's your friend. What do you think? 
WS -- I want to write back to him, and I think it's wonderful that we're all going there, 
and I hope we can meet. 
HF -- Call Fujiko-san. (8:12 am) 
WS -- Okay, I called her. 

[To Mike:] She said, actually, it's okay, she doesn't need anything. But she's very glad you'll be
 going. Our plan is very much the same as yours and Reiko-san's -- she's going to Japan first,
 drop off Masha, and then meet me in Korea. So you're doing the same thing. Maybe we can do it
 all together. Also Gerry and Yoko are going for ten days. 

	Yeah, Mike, I'll see you there! 
	So, back to the topic. 
 
HF -- That _is_ the topic. 
 
WS -- Okay, what about the Haley-Bopp comet? 
 
HF -- Come on now. You know what I think of first? I think of those ridiculous people who left
 their bodies to go join the comet. Okay now. What is a comet? Just ice. It comes and goes, 
on a long train ride. Think of a comet: When it last came by, was long before the days of Mark
 Twain. All those lazy days under the sun. You want to spend all that time in darkness, 
and come back every 275 years, for another brief glimpse at humanity, and begone? In a way,
 that's like a lot of the idea about space travel: endless excursions into endless voids. The
 earth is the place where I made life, and love, and human society. 
 
WS -- I have many questions. What do you think of space travel then? 
 
HF -- Now is the central time, this is the central place. There will be days and a time when
 people will go off to distant destinations. But not now. You can see your limitation already
 -- the moon, and Mars is too difficult. 
 
WS -- But I envision that people will be regularly traveling to and from Mars and the moons of
 Jupiter, on regular business and with new technology. 
 
HF -- Yeah. We have to work toward that. It will happen. But not now. And it will take a long
 time (expanding beyond the solar system). 
 
WS -- Okay, when I look up into the heavens, like with the pictures from Hubble Space 
Telescope, it looks like the stuff is right there... 
 
HF -- A mountain also looks like it is right there. You know how long I took to make those
 things. You can see it at a glance, but to travel it... 
 
WS -- You can traverse the mountain in a jet plane... 
 
HF -- Yeah, but living there... 
 
WS -- That's all we want -- to be able to go there to visit it. Just to say we were there. 
 
HF -- Yeah, I can understand that. 
 
WS -- Okay, how does it feel like for You, since You are already there, as well as here? 
 
HF -- The earth is the place. Believe me. You want to go there and find out? That's what they
 said when they went to the moon. "The earth is the place." You know how it is in Antarctica, 
or in the stratosphere. Well, outer space is much worse. The earth is the place, the Garden of
 Eden. For Me, too. So those guys who went up in the comet -- it's true -- they did go, as they 
desired. But how disappointed they'll be. How much frozen, and locked in a perpetual eternity, 
coming and going a couple times in a millennium. Then, as soon as they got there, they 
suddenly clearly see California, and the witnessing brothers and sisters, and the Blessing. What a shock! 
 
WS -- Why does everybody look to them with some kind of admiration? 
 
HF -- Because they all (you all) have the same fallen nature. It's really an archangel realm. 
Talk about putting yourself out in the cold. Archangel likes to watch through a telescope. 
Archangel is the king of what? Of inhumanity. 
	Okay, back to your question, "What does it feel like for Me, since I am already there, in the 
heavens?" Yeah, to answer that. 
	Okay, there is stuff going on out there. I am busy. It's a very active place. Like a busy kitchen.
Also angels are busy there. It's a center of busy activity. But you have to realize the earth is 
the central place. I also made it at one time in the past. That is called, "Day 1", "Day 2", "Day 
3", ... See? So, you can see, you can experience, Day 1, Day 2, etc., by gazing out into the 
heavens. The Hubble Space Telescope enabled that more clearly for the first time. So now, and 
increasingly, you can more and more be present at the very creation, in the very process of 
creation. Even I have made that available for you to see. Nothing is too expensive for Me for 
you. 
 
WS -- What is the expense of the cosmos for You? 
 
HF -- I laid all My money down on the table. [God's tears] I bought it. For Me, there is nothing 
else. For you? The expense of the cosmos is like the expense of your life, as Jesus said, "For 
what will a man give for his life, if he gains all the world, but forfeits his life?"
