More of the "Rest of the Story" about Bob Hisamoto; from Raul Gutierrez

(1 March 2021 to Barbara Connolly, WWII Historical Researcher)

I met BOB thru Orvall Larry, a common friend. We met at one of the Positive Thinking seminars, they used to hold regularly in Fairbanks.

I went to Fairbanks to install a power plant for FMUS at their Chena Power Plant, in 1976.

Bob told me that he was born in Hawaii (he looked Japanese), and that before he was part of a team working with Albert Einstein, and that on occasion he did correct Einstein’s equations. Was told that the seminar was conceptualized by Einstein, when he ceased to investigate and concentrated in finding, from his mind, answers to life and death and other human topics.

Bob was working for NASA in Alaska tuning the net of antenna dishes tracking outer space sounds, and he did show me computer graphs depicting sounds. One time mentioned the complicated effort of pointing the antennas in the right direction. He had a younger wife, many children, perhaps over 10 and I had dinner at his house in several occasions.

Years later he came to Mexico City looking for me, as I was not in Mexico, found out from a sister of mine that I was in Guatemala, where he showed up at my hotel room, with Fred and my sister. Spent a few days there, explained to me in a simple manner how was it that Einstein conceptualized what he proved with the e=mc2 formula, very interesting.

Eventually my sister married Fred and moved to Fairbanks.

This is all I can remember.

March 2021 … (To Barbara; Hello, I am writing from Mexico City. I met Bob many years ago and I know more things about him, some of which he shared. After I left Fairbanks, he came looking for me with a common friend Fred Davies. Thanks and regards Raul Gutierrez

AND; **Hello Raul, how may I help you? The message is plain, but it failed to give me the name of the Hero you are asking about… which I will assume is "Bob". : ) Please send the link and/or name and some additional information. Thank you for contacting me, I am always pleased to add to one of our members pages. I live in Arizona. Blessings, Barbara Connolly **Princessbarbi_B25@msn.com

MARCH 2021; Barbara to Raul,

WOW… Holy cow, that's quite a story and it surely sounds like meetings of brilliant minds. It is usually a good thing they went off to pursue other (interesting to them) things. I placed Bob's story because my dad/Edward C Ennis, Airborne RADAR/Radio /Aerial Ginner, B-25 Mitchells in the MTO WWII …. he lived through it and came home to land at the Bradley Field AAB (Connecticut) running the Field and Tower (qualified but he was a T/Sgt.) SO they found a "paper pusher" Lt. out of Washington DC (became my Godfather) but he knew nothing about airplanes, etc. So, my dad still ran the field and was the one who deciphered the Cryptograph.

;- D Your story is fascinating! *** May I place your story? *** I love seeing credit go to those who deserved it and BOB certainly does. If we truly knew what all happened and where…. there'd be lots of "The Rest of the Story!"

Thank you, Blessings, Barbara
