SoulPhone Newsletter February 2021

Dear SoulPhone family,

What an exciting time we are in!  Life on earth makes much more sense as we learn the great news that:

   1. definitive scientific demonstrations now show life continues after bodily

   death.

   2. communication with postmaterial persons (the so-called ‘deceased’) is

   possible.

Thank you for sharing this great news with others and supporting the SoulPhone Project as much as you can.  This is truly a historical moment and you can play a role in it.

Lots to share this month  . . .

Progress continues on developing a practical, highly reliable, and accurate SoulSwitch.  This is required to create the SoulKeyboard that should allow texting and typing with postmaterial (so-called ‘deceased’) persons.

However, until large funding (only $2.5M) arrives, we can only proceed at a snail’s pace.  Full funding will allow hiring a full time electrical engineer and software developer so we can move along much more rapidly.

2. Dr. Schwartz’s latest paper is completed and submitted to a prestigious scientific journal.  This may seem boring and your reaction might be: ‘Just get us the SoulPhone!’  We understand the urgency but this paper is vital for:

     a. justifying multicenter trials

     b. creating credibility before public demonstrations to address the
predictable response by some of ‘fake news’.

    c. reassuring large donors that their money will be spent on a scientifically
sound project

3. ‘Extraordinary Claims Require Extraordinary Evidence’ book has been completed by Dr. Schwartz.  I will edit and proof it before sending to a publisher.  The book should be available by the summer of 2021.

Again, you might say: “Another book?  When will there be an actual device for ‘spirit’ communication?”

This book is part of the required infrastructure before we demonstrate the technology and share the news with national / international large media.  You may be personally assured about life after death and the possibility of communicating with postmaterial persons.  But many people are not.  We want to proactively address their fears, concerns, and skepticism.

To be clear, the paper and book are not slowing the R & D.

4. Other tasks are underway: ethical considerations, how to share the news with thought leaders and when, security and safety issues, etc.

5. Crowd funding and grant writing: We are pursuing every lead possible to obtain full funding for this project.  Let me know at mark at soulproof dot com if you have experience in either or are willing to assist other team members.6. Many thanks to our supporters!  I always feel so grateful when I look at our PayPal account and see your donations of $5, $10, or more per month.  This adds up and pays for:

     a. foundation operating expenses such as website server, maintenance,
Zoom account, and other necessary requirementsb. regular donations to the SoulPhone Project: thanks to your
donations, we are able to help to pay for some of the part-time work by
electrical engineers (who discount to $100 per hour) and specialized
software developers ($125 per hour).

Again, only our part-time engineers and software programmers are paid.  Neither Dr. Schwartz, Rhonda, nor I have received one penny for our extensive work over the years.  In addition, the foundation team of 20 talented people are all volunteers.
