I know that ideally we could learn to communicate acoustically
with cetaceans (whales, dolphins and porpoises) but that is
not yet possible.

But I think that some of us may have mind to mind communication
abilities that would enable us to communicate telepathically
with cetaceans.

I don't have any such abilities beyond a low level though
perhaps I could improve what little I have by meditation
techniques and/or psychotropic drugs, but I am reluctant
to try such drugs since I have bipolar disorder.

If you think you might have such abilities could you
please try and contact the nearest (to you) whale,
dolphin or porpoise and pass on a greeting from me
(David Dalton in Newfoundland).

With all due respect, we can't even communicate with our own species. I
think it's a bit premature to be talking of communicating with other
species.

And really, if you were a whale, would you want to communicate with
humans? They're the ones who are always trying to harpoon them for their
oil and stuff. Kind of gives us humans a bad name, don't you think?

That is true, though we have improved on the whaling
front in recent decades though Japan seems bent on
conducting whaling in the guise of scientific research.

But I think the main problem between humans and
cetaceans now is the huge amount of noise from
ships, military sonar and seismic airgun arrays.
I commented on that earlier on sci.physics.acoustics
and other groups and asked for strategies to help
solve the problem, plus I intend to try and use my
own scientific knowledge to come up with strategies.

Thousands of dolphins stampede of California warning humans
that a massive deadly event is near this area just of Dana Point.
Under ocean fracture could cause gigantic tsunami.

We shall soon see. Magic rare baby white dolphin sighted there also.
