Thank you so much, J.C. on a bike for giving us your time and effort to produce an informative introduction to some of the ideas we’ve tossed around about sharing information among and between blogs in a network of trustworthy people whom we have learned to trust. I’m delighted you were able to present this for TBP today because I believe it helps explain that your research is different and independent of Dan’s research at Harvard to the Big House, although both his research and some of Allan Weisbecker’s research and interviews seemed to have come together in a cosmic incident which involved me being nosey about a guy on a bike talking about the virus.
I’m posting this as J.C. sent it because it not only answers a lot of our questions we had about the science surrounding the pandemic , it also provides this writer the background on our biker biologist (see, Uncola? third person viewpoint is awkward isn’t it?). And, J.C. gave us a dialog about his background and I think that should provide the TBP monkey inspectors enough information they can decide if your background credentials meet their high standards.
Then, I will share some details about the standards around here.
For one? I am looking forward to the next round of questions this generates and am hoping others realize that JC Onabike seems to have found his way home.
I think he’s one of us.
There’s something about listening to someone tell you a story when other things are going on around you- it can be either distracting or riveting depending upon the tone of the speaker and the visual stimulation of the unfolding scenery. I was both drawn in by the beauty of western Pennsylvania at the tail end of Winter, the incipient buds on the distant trees, with the rolling surface of the roadway as it passes from the rural countryside to the quaint edges of a third tier American industrial city left behind by globalism. But it was the tone of the rider who expounds on a variety of topical and seemingly disconnected social and cultural issues in the time of the plague that kept me watching.
I hope that these bike rides continue through a variety of locations and through a myriad variety of topics.
Welcome to the big show, J.C on a bike
mags said you are a scholar and a gentleman
why is that funny
It isn’t… I sent EC a picture of you and Otto.
Thanks, Marc. I really appeciate your giving the biker dude your “stamp” of approval. LOL
I am hoping to be able to give him the feedback your provided to me and improve his delivery, but am so glad you see what I see.
I’ve worked hard on this… it is my gift to Stucky because he loves TBP!
It’s only distracting the first time and then it’s quite normal.
Do you know what I just found out? Dago is a derogatory term for both Italians and people of Spanish and Portuguese descent. But, what exactly does the term mean?
I’m asking you because you seem to know a lot about derogatory names.
“Dago” is a Spaniard.
“Guinea” is an Italian.
is that true ec
i thought all wops were dagos too
i come from a spanish bloodline… am a blond indian… duh
i must be a injun dago
You are a lot of things. I’m glad you like the place. It proves my point about there being something on TBP for everyone, if they look.
Now, behave.
Marc, thank you so much for that welcome to J.C.
This thing (news about the virus) is moving so fast isn’t it? I completely understand what my son was trying to tell me now about how Millennials want their news on the move.
J.C. is reading and commenting here from time to time, so will stay up to date on what sort of topics he should prepare for his “ride.”
I will also email him with topics until he asks me to stop.
I think if it continues to be a mutually beneficial effort, J.C. will use TBP commenters as a way to frame his bike ride each week. I’m betting, as breaking news happens, we might get a breaking news bike ride once in a while. This whole idea, though, is a work in progress, which should bring Donkey running to give some advice.
I will admit that when I came upon this J.C. on a bike reference in a serious discussion online, I thought it was simply a gimmick. But, when I sent J.C. an email and explained my idea for a report here, he turned out to be a really interesting person interested in making a difference for ourselves and our posterity.
I think if we all work together, we might all be able to make a difference. At least we can draw our last breath knowing we tried.

@GreatGameIndia
#FrankPlummer – renowned Winnipeg based Canadian National Microbiology Laboratory scientist key to #Coronavirus investigation has died in mysterious conditions in Africa. He was the one who received Saudi SARS Coronavirus sample which was smuggled to Wuhan
I remember the Winnipeg tie-in from your first commentary I posted here, J.C. I think it is from Dan (I got his name and information but will link later) at HarvardtotheBigHouse’s research about the smuggled sample.
It is all good discussion, but the “good stuff” starts around 17 minutes, in my opinion.
Lots of background research fundamentals with casual presentation of best info currently available. What’s not to love? Thanks JC
Turns out JC is married so how about you?
Back off the commenters, girlie… I got you a date when you head this way
It is like one of the TBP monkeys wandered down the biology hallway at college and accidently graduated with a freaking PHD.
J.C. you are blowing my mind with the synchronicity suggested. I will review your second update and perhaps we will be ahead of the curve to get this right.
My friend, you are a welcome commenter. If these monkeys don’t realize what a gift you are? I will rename my hillbilly blog The Bootheel Platform and I’ve got 534 followers who will make TBP sorry they turned you down.
Welcome to the tribe, J.C. A lot of us think you fit right in.
We are all a bunch of misfits, Maggie.
I will have to listen later. It’s date night.
Good for you… we moved date night to Thursday. We hate traffic.
I know this is an article about biology but I don’t want to know what goes on in your date nights.
I laughed out loud and you now have to guess who i am…
EC? I just got an email from my Biologist on a Bike and he’s taking care of his three-year-old who wants to draw and so Daddy can’t answer questions right now.
Paula should realize she’s being a bit of a cougar, you know? Otto is almost two.
But, since this is a work in progress and I’m bouncing my ideas off you mostly, I’m imagining one of those baby carriers for his bike (for a ride in the park maybe one time) and you know what I would call that one don’t you? Biologist on a Bike with Baby.
Want to welcome to the Biking Biologist. I think you are onto something here Ms. MG. Travel and scenery and a discussion of the virus..… yon biker hath lungs and legs of iron or steel…then again, he’s young and there was a comedienne who said that young people, when they break their arm, just pull it off and grow another one….
We are putting family manse on the market and I’m working with my father to find him some suitable accomodations. I may be out of pocket for awhile but I do check in.
Thank you… I have already mentioned your research and that he can expect good solid grasp on the information behind what you ask… Now, I’ve also suggested that some of the monkeys following you around are smitten and may have ulterior motives. Not giving names or predatory natures.
Also, I’ve warned him about the Death Nurse (T4C) but until we get him hooked, please please please remember what caught my eye was his obvious passion for science and how science impacts our lives… outside of science. A scientist with a point of view. And, the bike ride is mesmerizing… listening to a lesson from a nice guy on a bike.
And the editing with documentation popups is top notch.
He’s got some great ideas for an even more interactive way to answer our questions.
Diablogging discussing ideas between blog viewpoint…
I’m still working on the nut graph, but do you see what I mean?
I hope you are online today, Mygirl…
I haven’t tried to post in a while. Our Service provider informed us they will not provide email any longer so we either have to rely on the googleplex for email or actually subscribe to another service which requires great force to overcome inertia. Since my login ability relies on that email address, I assume I will need to send this directly to Mr. Quinn who will then choose whether or not the information is TBP-worthy or if this post in an old thread suffices to inform those who might want to know.
I have continued to follow the travails of JConabike…* who began to grow an audience on YouTube and drew the attention of the University of Pittsburg, where he was a research professor. He was threatened and then, eventually, fired. He was not part of the actual faculty, but had been on long-term research staff and had been part of any number of important studies as the expert on neuro-biology. He was also a teaching “adjunct” professor, so did the bike ride lectures as part of his extra-curriculum activity. He was a cool teacher and I didn’t have a crush on him. I just thought he was really sincere and really informed. I still do.
The reason he was fired? Supposedly, he was accused of being racist and misogynist during his lectures. In actuality, he was told if he continued to trash the “science” on his bike ride videos, he would be fired. He continued and he was.
I had to look up misogynist. I’d heard it many times and decided if JC was a racist misogynist then I was under the wrong impression about what one of those is…
Misogyny: “feeling, showing, or characterized by hatred of or prejudice against women”
I’ve never seen any evidence of that in hours of JC’s interesting lectures I’ve watched.
As for racist? Really, how does one call an obviously indigenous Native American racist with a straight face?
Anyway, I may or may not summarize this lecture he has put together after working out any number of glitches. If I do, I will write a short summary for people like Mr. Thistle who read faster than they can hear and think because, believe it or not, onceuponatime in a land that time forgot, so could I.
https://www.twitch.tv/gigaohmbiological
So, this is a really professional presentation by an original member of DRASTIC though for some reason, JC got cancelled very early last year from You Tube and Facebook because he started attracting too large of an audience. I can’t help but think the large number of eyes upon him might have resulted from his exposure here on TBP.
We all know there are trolls here.
This is a fascinating lecture and I really do plan to summarize the lecture with a timeline and select a couple of clips to show that JC has really found his voice and I think his message is timely and needs to be shared, either in video or summary form.
J.C. I’ve gotten good feedback. I am so thrilled to see Stucky post today and those folks here who know how far Stuckenheimer and I go back should appreciate that I fell almost as if he has blessed this bike riding effort at bridging the gap in communications/language/meaning between all of the segregated parts of our society, which I think J.C. would tell you is a SYSTEM.
Well, if you can’t grasp the possibility, I can. J.C.? My son arrives tomorrow. He thinks the world need a lot more scientists on bicycles.
Thank You.
I think he’s a natural fit, I hope the Trumpeteers don’t discourage him.
Stucky? do you remember…
I think it was about three years ago and your father was dying. I was trying to come to terms with both my father-in-law’s death (Poppa Grooch LOVED me through and through like no one else) and the impending loss of my own father, whom I’d lost a couple years earlier due to Alzheimer’s and misunderstandings.
You wrote a post exposing the raw hurt and anguish that envelopes us when we lose someone we love.
Since then, we’ve all seen a lot of changes which have caused us to step back and reassess.
We can either make a difference right now or we can just hang it all up.
There’s the treehouse, a quarter mile from my home, unseen.
Just sayin…
Well, Stucky, not everyone wants to live in a shack on stilts, but you didn’t have to downvote it! Sheesh
MG….
I watched this one an hour ago, Ialways click ‘watch on youtube’ and open another window (it showed 114 views and noted in the description to jump ahead 17 min. to get to the ‘swarm’ discussion….I didn’t in order to hear a bit more from the man.
On another thread, JC slightly addressed the issues I attempt to bring forward. I think it was VV, that responded about ‘human mice’, and JC’s reference was that it was an “urban legend”. Well, that urban legend has been/is funded by millions and millions of taxpayer dollars. In 2006, the US Dept. of Health provide $773,000 to Case Law School in Cleveland Ohio, to ‘develop the guide lines that will be used for creating policy for human enhancement that will be used in the next step of human evolution’
I did a short search to look into the RNA vs DNA, to elevate my ability at posing a question concerning the same issues I brought up on the other bike thread…..clicked on a couple articles, then saw a utube title with the ‘hybrid, nephilim’ theme, so I clicked on it.. low and behold it was one I had tried to find many times before. Some lady had captured it and put it on utube (posted on my late dad’s birthday two years ago and showed 115 views- weird type coinky dink deal again, IMO). The content was from somewhere around 10 yrs back, I believe:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=2&v=8hP65AGidZ0&feature=emb_logo
I still am curious as to whether JC has an opinion on the ability of 5G frequency, coupled with nanotech insertion of a ‘vector’ of some sort, could trigger or augment a mutation?
Enjoyed the photo of ‘locking the gate’……….and your fond recollections/photos of papa gooch and your dad are welcome breaths of fresh air…when I was a kid and traveled to the missouri hills with dad to visit his kin, the scenes are reminiscent of my own.
annuit coeptis novus ordo seclorum <<——==
I don't think JC Onabike understands the people behind all this endeavor to replace JC OnaCross
Ordie? I think he does understand. In fact, the reason I found JC Onabike was because his initials J.C. jumped out at me and it wasn’t even a hyperlink. Something caused me to go find this JC on a bike and find out why he came up at all in a discussion of, um, 5G technology.
We could do a Who’s on the Bike parody!
And I’ve already told him a bunch of church ladies are going to have to stop his video and pray for him every time he says bad words in traffic.
Ordie, I think JC is a Godsend in many ways, but if he is just a concerned citizen who wants to devote his time and talent to helping a few people understand a few things better, then I’m willing to stand beside him while he tells me what he knows and then, I bet he will listen to our questions and answer them on a bike ride.
I sense an honest and intellectual person who wants to help make a difference.
And, yes… I think he very much will address the affects of all types of radiation on DNA and tissue. This is actually stuff he likes to explain. He’s a gifted teacher, but the big money is in research, right J.C.?
Lo and behold
I am emailing you a really great idea. Trust me. This one is GREAT. Much better than Biologist on a Bike with a Baby in a Basket. Much better.
Ordo..
Coming soon to a town near us. To ignore it is to do so at our own peril. Directly above the ZogTown CEO pulling the pupet strings is a hybrid monstrosity.
hahaha…the regional TV news this very morning are reporting a new case just 10 miles up the road in the county seat…..
The pressers this wkend sure seemed to emphasize ‘control and containment’ thru cooperation with ‘state and local partners’……regionalization and consolidation of local 911 centers has been ongoing for years. Personally, I think dot gov could shut down this nation with ease.
And I’ll put this link here in the remote chance that the biking biologist isn’t already aware of the fact that the CDC is a private organization that holds dozens of patents on vaccines:
“The vaccine business is currently a $30 billion per year industry in which organizations like the World Health Organization have urged increased investment, projecting that it will become a $100 billion per year industry by 2025. Thus, it is evident that the CDC and their business partners need the public to not only be okay with the 69 doses of recommended childhood vaccines, but to begin to adhere to the additional 100 plus doses of vaccines recommended by the new adult schedule, and to be ready to inject their families with the additional 271 vaccines in the development pipeline.”
So, from somewhere around 2018 at $30 billion they project “that it will become” a $100 billion yr. by 2025…..
annuit coeptis novus ordo seclorum <<——-==are Emperors Ping Pong and Orangeman working together ?
Ordie, I’ve been bumping up against the fact that almost all of these international health conglomerates have links to Johns Hopkins University and the National Institutes of Health.
Now, I’ve got a request in at Johns Hopkins to see if I can get a rocket scientist on the staff/faculty there to let me interview them via skype about a few things. I think that will actually happen.
I just am not sure I have the right questions to ask. I wish I could look at the network diagram… I love a good schematic to study with a cup of coffee in the morning.
I’m saying that you are right… the interconnectedness of ALL these big bureaucratic institutions is confusing. I believe the confusion is intentional.
Thanks, I liked how he explained things in a simple manner. I remember foundering on fruit flies in biology back in high school. I welcome his input here. Thanks Maggie.
Me too, Subwo. And gagging during the frog dissection. I love it when people can explain science in a way that keeps me from falling asleep.
Mary? I’m going to email J.C. and ask him to pop in and answer a couple of questions just to get a “diablog” (am still pushing the term but not as hard) started so people can help Admin and the other folks (that’s YOU too) come up with a regular feature and the best way to do it.
This is true interactive thinking, Mary. However, and as a grandmother I know this is going to cinch it for you.
He’s with his three-year-old so Daddy needs to draw right now. A man should do what a man needs to do.
But, JC? When the baby in a basket with the biologist from the bike (dr. seuss much?) takes a little nap, perhaps you can hop up pop on and see if you feel like responding. There are no “rules” here, but as you know, a little bit of feedback goes a long way toward generating interest until people grow to recognize whatever title YOU end up giving your column/feature/posts.
And, if you mention Harvard to the Big House, I’m sure you will make sure everyone knows neither of you have federal affiliation or funding for your research, which is all your own.
So, when you can pop in, it will help keep your readership from slumping due to my enthusiasm for promoting a good idea to death. People start paying me just to NOT bother them.
Mostly, it’s been me talking to myself and my friend Paula who is disappointed but not overly so about your being married. She thought you were older. I gave her grandson Otto an abacus when I was in Oklahoma visiting last summer.
An abacus. Y’all know Paula can post pictures.
It’s fine. Did someone expect him to get back to this immediately? You could make it a new post when he has time to get back to it.
Hey! Don’t go giving the noobe’s a pass on schedule just because they are wiling to research topics for us and report from a bike in traffic.
We have our vetting standards. Chop Chop… Where are you JC on a bike?
He is coming up with some great ideas to specialize his bike video and has agreed to stop cursing since I told him that would force all the holy rollers to pause his video to pray for his potty mouth and they might not be able to focus on his message.
So I tried last night to watch and failed. It was too late. I just finished and I found it quite interesting.
WRSA posted this link this morning. I wonder what JC thinks about it. It’s not long and has sourced links. One source is Great Game India. I had never heard of it before this “thing” erupted. It also has some science journal links, too.
Btw, Maggie, one case confirmed in Johnson County, KS. All they will say about it is the woman is 50 and has recently traveled to the Northeast. The won’t say where in the Northeast. She returned on March 1st and became symptomatic a few days later. They won’t say what part of Johnson County she lives in. They assert that the only people exposed are her family members. WTF! She came home on a plane loaded with people. Most of them disembarked because KC is not a hub. She went places in between disembarking and going to the Doctors office. Her family members probably went places.
You probably heard ST Louis has a positive, too. And Tulsa, Ok. where we were last weekend.
Like I said… the brat has not replied. On the one hand, it’s good because if he was sick you can bet he would call Mom. I don’t care if a fancy doctor/therapist there at Cerner has decided he has Asperger’s or not. It’s rude and all these syndromes are excuses for bad behavior, mostly.
The link is essentially Harvard2bighouse’s story point for point, but H2BH has been on this exact beat for weeks now, paper for paper he handed me the story. I added a few pieces here and there but we even nailed a reasonable explanation why it’s affecting Iran and China differently.
You really did… and above, a commenter named Angel asked a very relevant question about the Winnipeg sample that was smuggled out.
Is me but I sometimes go nameless. It protects your reputation. Right now your reputation is good, so I’ll steer clear of direct contact. Hopefully, you will submit your own videos without my assist and before I know it you will never write or call.
Like that rocket scientist of mine in Kansas City who better call me soon. Or else I might just go to where he works in my hillbilly getup and embarrass him. Again.
You know good and well I’m going to ask for a shoutout to her grandsons. (19, 15 and 10 names withheld but they will know who she is… call her “Granny on the Gravel Road in the Ozarks.”)
That’s close enough.
In hindsight, I wish I’d taken more time to outline your first video and the whole introduction faux pas with Harvard2bighouse’s story and link might have been avoided.
But, the very ironic think is that I’d earlier stumbled onto Allen Weisbecker’s fascinating approach to research.
This is probably a good link to post here because in the first few sentences Allan explains his reason for deleting comments he doesn’t feel add to his purpose. Then it is obvious he starts deleting people’s comments about why he deletes comments.
That’s a little over the top but Surfer Dude from Fucking New York has quite the attitude. He NEVER ever put Marc Moran’s comment up there and it was a very well thought out and kind explanation about how I’m mentally challenged and sometimes I intentionally misspeak because I’d rather be funny than wrong.
I do respect a serious researcher’s desire to stay on topic and I think this blog was a lot more like that until some people who are jabberwocky types showed up and haven’t stopped talking long enough to do anything but drag a poor biologist off his bike in Pittsburg.
Personally, I think what Quinn does here by opening up his platform for a unique sort of discussion which is open and sometimes brutally honest between members of a blog community which has long standing relationships bonded between several very smart people with their own separate fields of expertise. A lot of us have blogs or pages elsewhere and we mirror or reflect articles from here so that it provides a wider reach than our own resources allow.
While I did purchase Allan’s Movie and so contributed to his gasoline costs for the RV and I fully understand how appalled people are when they come and see the hideous ads, but as I like to say free speech may be free but publishing it far and wide costs money.
Now, I’m hoping TBP readers will see what a fabulous opportunity this is to welcome you on “staff” as our own Biking Biologist. (Do you think we might we get Breaking News Bike Rides?) I believe people will listen to what you have to say while they get a riveting look at Pittsburg. They can always turn down the volume and enjoy the bike ride. I find it mesmerizing.
By the way, my neighbor has three grandsons in Pittsburg. We walk when it doesn’t rain. I’m thinking “Grannies on Gravel” have potential but no real perspective.
Born and raised in Pittsburgh, now that I’m away, it’s so good to see the streets fly by as the bike rolls on. I haven’t seen a squiggly signpost showing winding roads in ages!
JC has my attention as he rides and discusses the current predicament we find ourselves in, his seeking of the truth as he searches and expounds the realities of the latest crisis we are facing in terms and examples I can follow easily.
I agree with the truth that fiat monies have been ruling the world and will end up being the source of whatever freedoms we lose as we watch this country deteriorate. To me, the greatest injustice that has been going on for decades now, is the ability to expose the truth and get major book deals and yet not one criminal is ever convicted; I wonder how much longer the general public will be satisfied reading about the atrocities done by the deep state yet no convictions, or the patriot book writers will begin to feel guilty about becoming millionaires by being a useful idiot in quenching public outrage and thus ensuring the perps get off without any jail time.
It is an awesome presentation idea isn’t it? And, it is just going to get better!
J.C. I wanted to push you toward an essay/post which is worth a bit of time, if you really want to know what you are getting into.
I feel you should be fully aware.
