 INTERIM SUMMARY
 SESSION DATED:  21 SEP 88
 My first ideogram was that of a structure -- which was
 the predominate aspect of the target  (even though it was in
 the mountains).  Usually my first ideogram produces the
 predominant gestault at the site and I have learned to
 trust this.
 The second ideogram indicated that there was altitude
 at the site in that it was semisoft and land but it was
 rising up and rolling etc.  The feeling I received was one
 of height,  not just across.  I should have begun to
 understand that something unusual  was coming --- but  I did
 not.
 The third ideogram indicated very clearly that there
 was a peak or mountains present.  My focus turned back to
 the structure because I knew that it war.. the predominant
 gestault  (at least that is what I was drawn to).  I received
 AOL of` mountains or foothills with  limited vegetation and  I
 declared an AOL break.
 The fourth ideogram was a very prominent mountain
 ideogram which I attempted to squelch because I was certain
 that the structure was the key issue.  It was at this time
 that I began to run into trouble with vertigo and AOL.  I
 called a confusion break indicating that the ideogram
 didn't feel right  (it felt right I just wanted to squelch
 it for the structure).
 The fifth ideogram returned as the structure  (the
 system giving me what I insisted upon -- and hoping that it
 could feed me the information some other way).
 As I entered into Stage 2 perceptions I began
 obtaining pure site information natural rock colors and
 textures --  I  received a high pitched whining sound and
 then asked to take the coordinates again.
 On this iodeogram the structure returned and the
 subsequent Stage 2 perceptions supported the feedback data
 hunt some limited AOL began to kick in.  I knew that I had
 some sort of structure and that here was a great deal  of
 height.  AOL began to  indicate metal  and metal  sounds, like
 clanging or dropping metal   -- which  I declared.
 The next  ideogram was structure again and the
 subsequent Stage 2  information supported the target even
 further.  I began to have AI of something vibrating --- it
 made me feel  as though  I was vibrating and  I AOLed it as an
 electric motor.

 Pace in the Stage 2 categories now began to slow --
 its as if I know that something is wrong with my
 perceptions or contact so I slow down to try and get closer
 to the site  (thinking that I can combat the AOL -- or in
 some way use the AOL to draw me closer to the site,  using
 my "crutch conduit" again as indicated in Stage 3 Summary
 #1).
 My next ideogram was one not experienced by me before
 --- it was as if the system was trying to steer me away from
 the structure again to try and give me the gestault of
 mountains some other way.   I perceived the second part of
 this iodeogra.m as being hard and rolling with man made
 aspects and could not decode it as mountains  (  I had no B!
 )  The subsequent. Stage 2  information really supported the
 missed mountain gestault with perceptions of tall,  high,
 long,  airy.  Rolling etc.  -- but  I still missed the systems
 attempt at the gestault.    My AI continued to be the
 vibration and I broke into the sketching of Stage 3.
 My Stage 3 sketches had many aspects of the mountains
 and the structures within them.     I drew the pure sketches
 and then let AOL add to them to turn them into a power
 plant of some sort -- I guess I told myself that these
 mountains that I was sketching must be smoke stacks because
 my main ideogram was structure and not mountain.
 Bottomline -- I am still  learning to overcome my AOL
 which will come in time.  It fools me less each time --- I
 learn  its tricks.  My pace slowing down  is purely a
 personal problem,  as I explained I do it when I am confused
 and I mistakenly think that it draws me closer to the site.
 I will.  make every effort to overcome this.
