I thought it might be instructive to post some stuff that the Angels in The Group have communicated to us:

All of humanity is raising the collective vibration and as that happens the magnetic structure of Earth changes. This began several years ago with the introduction of crystal energy into your planet from the sun. There are devices that were built on the lower levels that will have a difficult time adjusting to the higher levels of vibration. Some of these are your own computers. You are experiencing this now as computer difficulties across the entire planet. You are evolving the crystalline structure of Earth and as a result all crystals must adjust to the higher vibration. The re-wiring of human biology has now reached a critical mass at which all the crystalline structure around you must also rewire. To accomplish that it is almost as if someone hit the reboot button of planet Earth. There will be five such reboots that will come to make this shift complete. Each time the reboot will be less difficult; this is the first and most difficult one. We tell you that there are more hard drive crashes on this planet than ever before, especially in the area of computers used for spiritual purposes.

Please understand that computers are crystalline based and that is why you are seeing so many difficulties with them at this time. The crystals in computers are what make up the very heart of the computer. Silicone (crystal) diodes are the foundation of all computers. You call these semiconductors. We tell you that they are no different than the crystals you love to keep around your house and carry with you to spiritual events. Crystal is the highest vibration of the mineral kingdom and it is just as alive as each of you. Crystals are living breathing entities that hold vibration and since they make up the very heart of your computers it could easily be said that your computers are alive. They too are going through an evolutionary process as a result of your advancement.

What we suggest is that you treat your computers with the same love and affection that you would a child going through a difficult phase of growth. Take time to connect to the crystals in your computers and be at one with them. Give them your strength and love. Lay your hands on the keyboard and let the crystals in your computers draw the love energy from your hands. That will keep them from harm during these times. Computers that are regularly used to spread love and high vibrational messages are especially vulnerable during these times. Simple ceremonies with your computer to allow it to carry the highest energy will be enough to make the transformation effortless. (See Steve’s note above)

Steve is the guy who channels communications from The Group. Coincidentally, Steve's computer just had a strange HD crash a few days before this message.

Oh, and maybe this post should go in Tech?

Silicone (crystal) diodes

You think that higher beings would understand the difference between silicon (a crystal) and silicone (a polymer).

That's just the kind of petty nitpicking a lower being would do...

Yeah, Tom. Evolve your vibrational status already....

All the same, I should probably find out from IT when our crystalline vibration upgrade is happening.

Huh. These people are... weird. Although I have to admit it'd be fun to live in their reality.

I just find it terribly sad, as it looks like a lot of people following it are following it because they have children with ASDs. It feels like some screwy denial/coping thing and makes my skin crawl more than a little.

We went to a park that has a lovely, large but shallow casting pond with a wooden bridge. We started walking around it--Owen walking beside while I pushed Liv in the stroller. Owen went to the edge of the pond, stuck one foot in the water. *sigh* After a brief discussion about how it's not even 60 degrees out and how cold the water was, we decided to continue our walk. We stopped to talk to his old babysitter (and the kids she's watching). Owen then took a stick to the edge of the pond and was sticking it in the water a few feet away from me.

Then he jumped in with both feet. Soaked his pants (that he'd put on all by himself--backwards) up to his thighs. *sigh*

Note to self: pack an emergency pair of pants in the van.

This is me. I don't think I remembered the link with autism, but that's the deal with Jenny McCarthy's little boy apparently.

I try! pets keyboard Hang in there little hard drive.

Happy birthday beth!

Ask Erika. She's a "special soul" so she probably knows.
