Hoover, J. Edgar
He wrote a book called "Childhood's End." He also wrote "Report on
Planet Three." It is a report about Earth by the Martian scientific
academy. They extoll the planet's virtues and examine the dominant
species, humans. They conclude no intelligent life exists.

I've read all his books, Hoover, he is a fantastic writer. I thought he
lived in Sri Lanka. Maybe he moved to India because of the problems
in Sri Lanka or maybe I was mistaken. Childhood's End was a great
book.
The law in other countries is not the same law as in the US. Children
in India are sometimes "married" at 5 & 6. Doesn't seem to be any
"age of consent" there, no labor laws either.

Hello,
Thanks for the info. Arthur was certainly on target with his conclusion
regarding the lack of intelligent life on this Patrhetic Planet. I'm always

Hello Grandmother,
You were not mistaken regarding where Arthur lives. He DOES live in Sri Lanka
now, and has lived there for 40+ years. My geographical brilliance is not all
it's cracked up to be, and I had assumed, incorrectly, that Sri Lanka was a
CITY located inside of the country of India. I now realize that Sri Lanka is a
country, not a city. Sorry for my misleading and incorrect comments in my
initial post. My mistake. Nobody's perfeKt. :)

That is certainly true.

The same is very likely true for Sri Lanka.

Yeah? Better keep looking, Joe! "Ace reporters" usually don't embellish their
stories with the kind of personal crap you inflict on other readers. Why don't
you travel personally to every corner of the earth to find out the REAL facts?
(In fact, why don't you leave tonight?) You might think your personal spin on
every story is amusing, but sometimes there are details you DON'T know, and
your unthinking blase attitude drives a nail in where maybe, just maybe, a true
objective report wouldn't have.
I for one don't give a - * - for what you think happened to your
soul at 13. Doesn't give you the right to cause anyone else pain - - and some
of your stupid comments have done so.
Want to be an "ace" reporter? Try reporting accurately, then.

I have no interest in being "amusing" in my commentary. My interest is in
expressing the truth about your inferior society, and about my True Reality. I
am not an "objective" reporter. I am a seeker of truth. An analyzer of fact. A
destroyer of societal hypocrisy.

Of course you don't. I don't expect anyone to give a f*ck about me. Luckily,
I am in love with myself, and relish my superiority over you humans.

I have a right to do a LOT more than just cause people pain with my brilliant
insights. I know EXACTLY what my True Reality rights are, don't worry about
that.
>Want to be an "ace" reporter? Try reporting accurately, then.
As I stated above, if you find my posts to be incompatible with your mindset,

The residents decided that they'd rather call their country by their own

It's Sri Lanka.
I haven't read all of this thread, but I hope someone corrected the
confusion about where Mr. Clarke lives -- he does not live in India, he

Hello,
Here is an update on Arthur C. Clarke and his alleged admission to being a
pedophile and having sex with young boys in Sri Lanka. Arthur made this
admission to a British newspaper a few days ago. It looks like 80 year old
Arthur has consulted with an attorney and has now decided to deny that he made
any such admissions.
He also seems to be worried that Prince Charles will deny him his Knighthood,
and is urging the Prince to just ignore those "false" admissions and proceed
with the Knighting ceremony on Wednesday. A spokesperson for the British
government says that Arthur's knighthood indeed HAS been cancelled, or at the
very least, postponed. It will NOT take plave on Wednesday, and it seems
certain that this cancellation is due to the alleged admission of pedophilia
that Arthur made.
The country of Sri Lanka does apparently have SOME type of laws against
adults having sex with children, but the laws appear to be very loosly
enforced. I doubt that Arthur would face any type of criminal charges for
having made this admission, although IF he was caught in the act of having sex
with a young boy, that might very well result in some type of criminal charges
being filed.
Take care, JOE

Arthur C. Clarke denies pedophilia report
February 2, 1998
By Dilip Ganguly, Associated Press
COLOMBO, Sri Lanka (AP) — Science fiction author Arthur C. Clarke today denied
a British tabloid's claim that he is a pedophile and asked that his knighthood
ceremony be postponed so not to embarrass Prince Charles.
"I am outraged by the Sunday Mirror's allegations, and I am seeking legal
advice,'' Clarke said in a statement read to reporters by his secretary, Roshan
Amarasekhara.
"Mr. Clarke is very upset by the false reports,'' Amarasekhara added.
The Mirror quoted Clarke discussing sex with young men and called him a
pedophile in its Sunday editions.
British High Commission spokesman Nick Astbury said Clarke's knighthood
ceremony had been postponed at Clarke's request. Prince Charles was to have
conferred the knighthood Wednesday.
The British-born Clarke, whose "2001: A Space Odyssey'' is one of the world's
best known works of science fiction, has lived in Sri Lanka since 1956.
The island nation off the southern tip of India has only recently taken steps
to fight its reputation as a place where wealthy foreigners can buy sex with
young men and boys. Estimates of young boys in the sex trade vary from 5,000 to
30,000.
The government last year raised maximum prison terms for pedophiles to 20
years, and private groups are campaigning against child sex tourism.
Hayley Jane Wakenshaw
According to the BBC Mr Clark has asked that his investiture be
postponed until the outrageous allegations against him have been
properly investigated. Seems he's a bit miffed now that everyone
is calling him a peodophile. It was emphasised that the knighting
of Arthur has been merely postponed and not cancelled, and that
this is at his own request to save Prince Charles any embarassment.

Crazy Joe is just playing mind games with you. This story is from a

Based on my "in-depth" research (similar to Crazy Joe's) I've discovered
that Clark has also admitted to having had sex with Elvis' female-alien-

Clarke has denied he ever told the tabloid he had sex with young boys. He is
currently involved in a lawsuit with the tabloid. He has also requested that
his knighting ceremony be postponed until this mess is lceared up. I'll believe
the London tabloids right after the National Enquirer receives a pulitzer.
For the record, "Childhood's End has nothing to do with kids, it is about the
evolution of the human race. Clarke originally intended his book "2001" to be
titled "Childhood's Beginning."

Childhood's End has a great deal to do with children, and their alienation
from their parents. However, it has nothing to do with sex.

Hello,

I have no interest in smearing Arthur C. Clarke, although it is my opinion
that he indeed did and perhaps even does now, at age 80, have sex with young
boys. My statements reflect this belief, and I stand behind every sentiment
that I expressed.

He did make the admission, and the admission was published in the London
Daily Mirror newspaper. After the publication, Arthur decided that he did not
want to be labelled a pedophile, consulted with an attorney, and chose to deny
what he had stated, only 2-4 days earlier, to the London Daily Mirror
newspaper.

If you research the thread, I think you will find that my above statement was
NOT attached to the AP wire report that you quote below. It was attached to an
EARLIER wire report, in which it states clearly that Arthur wanted to go ahead
with the knighting ceremony and did urge the Prince to proceed. Days later,
when Arthur realized the Prince did not WANT to knight Arthur, due to the
allegations against him, Arthur tried to save face by changing his tune and
asking the Prince to NOT go ahead with the knighting, because he KNEW that if
he did not do so, the Prince would cancel the ceremony and that would make
things look even worse for Arthur, in terms of his image.

Hello,
Well, I have examined the post that I made, that contained the below AP wire
article, and after reading it over, I will acknowledge that I was incorrect
when I stated that "Arthur is urging the Prince to just ignore those false
admissons and proceed with the knighting ceremony", in my above comments. That
sentence was written in error by me. When I do make a mistake, I admit it.
But I still believe that the only reason WHY Arthur asked the Prince to
postpone his scheduled Knighting, was because he was AFRAID that if HE did not
cancel, the Prince would cancel, and that would make him look even more GUILTY
and be even more harmful to his image.

Yes and No. First, Clarke says he hasn't been sexually active in 20
years, and since he is now confined to a wheelchair with post-polio
syndrome, it is very unlikely that he is sexually active now.
Second, Clarke never used the word "pedophile." That is entirely a
fabrication of the "Daily Mirror." A pedophile is someone attracted to
pre-pubescent children. Clarke stated that he had engaged in sex with
teen boys in the past, and after repeated goading by the reporter, allowed
that it was possible that an occasional boy might have been younger, due
to the difficulty of exactly telling the age of foreign boys simply by
looking at them.
This is hardly some stunning admission of criminal activity, considering
that the Age-Of-Consent in Sri Lanka was 12 until pressure from the
various sex abuse whackos recently forced it up to 16.
All of this is Very Old News, and it is absurd to try and dig up dirt on
Clarke over decades old relationships, and even more absurd to try and fit
those relationships into the new morality being spewed forth by the
self-appointed child protectors today.
This story is simply a smear campaign against Clarke by the usual people
who have nothing better to do with their time but rail against imagined
pedophilia, timed to publicly embarrass him and prevent him from receiving
an honor he justly deserves.
