He believes that those who are conscious of this energy can manipulate it to affect reality in different ways, such as altering the weather. He also believes that the pyramids and Mayan temples were created by a lost civilization, and that people with knowledge of the workings of the system will "ascend" at the conclusion of the Mayan calendar on Dec. 21, 2012, at 11:11 a.m. (Greenwich Mean Time), vanishing into a new plane of existence.[5] He recently claimed in a televised interview with ESPN that he has "skipped through time" and undergone "astral travel" and will "blast into space."

Daulton has authored a book on metaphysics and numerology, titled "If They Only Knew," published in 2007. In the book he discusses numerous aspects of metaphysics, referencing experts in the field, and his personal experiences.

It should also be pointed out that long-time hobby figure Ted Taylor is acting as Daulton's consigliere for this divestiture. Now that is sad.

On a very tangential note, we're a little surprised more folks here didn't jump into the fray on this thread from last week:

-- mainly by adding some commentary at the source:

Granted, it's only a podunk suburban Pennysaver sort of a paper, but every little bit helps... e-mailing the piece (link at end of article) to a couple of people would boost it onto the "most e-mailed" list and possibly at last grab the attention of the editor and of readers who missed it the first time around...

I missed that thread...that article was unbelievable. Since the comments don't seem to be working at getting some kind of retraction to the article I think you may have better luck by emailing the reporter directly

found this on the Phillyburbs website

cshoemaker@phillyBurbs.com

anyone doing a quick google search for the reporter's name "Carissa Shoemaker Debree" will also see that you can get her business phone number from the same website, but I won't post that here.

Sounds to me like they deserve each other.
