John L. Petersen is considered by many to be one of the most informed futurists in the world. He is best-known for writing and thinking about high impact surprises (wild cards) and the process of surprise anticipation. His current professional involvements include the development of sophisticated tools for anticipatory analysis and surprise anticipation, long-range strategic planning and helping leadership design new approaches for dealing with the future.<\/p>
In 1989, he founded The Arlington Institute (TAI), a non-profit, future-oriented research institute. TAI operates on the premise that effective thinking about the future is impossible without casting a very wide net. The \u201cthink tank\u201d serves as a global agent for change by developing new concepts, processes and tools for anticipating the future and translating that knowledge into better present-day decisions.<\/p>

Her experiences began at the age of ten months, but she did not fully understand what was happening to her.<\/p> Dolly\u2019s immersion into the ET civilization, their habits, their lifestyle, their philosophy, morality and ethics made her who she is. Her father was her principal guide and teacher at home, and Tlera (the entity who embodies the craft) is her guide and counselor while with the ET\u2019s.<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div> Until the age of 14, Dolly\u2019s memories were not fluid. She knew strange things were happening, but could not connect reality to them. It took a huge push to fight for her conscious recall to remain intact. After gaining awareness, her life took on purpose. Nursing began her journey. Then she began serving as a civilian worker in the US Department of the Treasury, and also in the Army as a Department of Defense employee.<\/em><\/p> Life changed those trajectories suddenly, and she was happy to become a zookeeper and an Animal Baby Momma for a private zoo and sanctuary in Florida. All while being taught by and working with ETs. Dolly\u2019s decision to break her silence is now an imperative for her.<\/em><\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>Dolly Safran<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
