			==Light Years by Gary Kinder - Four A==
			A description of Timothy Good related to an experience with Billy Meier found in a book called Light Years written by Gary Kinder which is about Billy Meier; in section Four A.
			----
			"In the early fall of 1964, Timothy Good toured India as a violinist with the London Symphony
			Orchestra. The son of a violinist, Good had begun playing the violin at age five and later
			trained at the Royal Academy of Music in London for four years. Now, at age twenty-two, he
			had been with the London Symphony Orchestra for a year, playing in the first violins. The
			tour of India, his first, was to last several weeks, taking Good to all of the country's major cities.

			In New Delhi, the orchestra stayed at the Ashoka Hotel, and one afternoon between rehearsal
			and the concert, Good took some time to browse through an artist's boutique that earlier had
			caught his eye in the lobby of the hotel. He had been struck by several paintings, especially a collection of oil portraits of Indian leaders including Gandhi and Nehru, surrounded in pale auras. As he looked through the glass at the paintings now, a woman in the shop approached him and invited him in.

			Good introduced himself and learned that the woman was Elizabeth Brunner, the artist who
			had painted the unusual portraits. The two of them talked at length about the paintings and
			Brunner's inspiration; then the conversation led to things metaphysical, and finally to Good's hobby, the study of UFOs.

			In the mid-1950s, while still in his teens, Good had become fascinated with the existence of
			flying objects no one seemed able to explain. Pilots observed them, radar confirmed the pilots' observations, yet the objects always outmaneuvered and outpaced the fastest jets. Good wondered, as did many people, if the governments of various countries knew more about
			these mysterious objects than they were telling the public. Now traveling all over the world
			with the orchestra, he had the opportunity on his own to investigate reports of strange
			sightings and claims of contact. As he explained more of his hobby to Brunner, he sensed in
			her someone who also believed in the existence of extraterrestrial societies and their probable visitation to the earth. After they had talked on the subject a short while, Brunner made a suggestion to Good that he found intriguing.

			As Good remembered, "She said, 'You ought to meet a chap who's fallen in love with a
			spacewoman. He's just left India.'"Unfortunately for Good, the man had been expelled from the country only a few days earlier, allegedly for having no money. Brunner surmised that the man was asked to leave the country for another reason, which she told to Good.

			"She felt it was perhaps because he talked too much," he recalled. "It's a dumb thing to talk
			about UFOs in India. She advised me not to do so, publicly at any rate, while I was there."
			Brunner then showed Good an article from the New Delhi Statesman dated a few days earlier,
			September 30, 1964: "The Flying Saucer Man Leaves Delhi- Swiss Claims He Has Visited
			Three Planets."

			Good began reading. In the article, the writer gave the flying saucer man the pseudonym
			Edward Albert. He wrote that he found Albert "sitting bare-bodied in one of the cave-like
			monuments at Mehrauli near the Buddha Vihara." The man had been living in the cave for
			five months, ever since his arrival in India.

			"Mr. Albert sounds rather weird," wrote the reporter. "But then he clearly is not eager to talk about his experiences which, to say the least, are remarkable. Indeed, the little that he has to say has to be pried out of him. He doesn't want publicity; he doesn't care if anyone believes him or not."

			The man had revealed to the reporter, "I have not only seen the objects from outer space, but
			have taken photographs and even traveled in them." He showed the reporter about eighty
			photographs, "all taken with an old folding camera and neatly kept in an album." But when
			the reporter asked for two or three of the photos to illustrate his article, the man "politely" declined his request. He told the reporter, "I can't spare them." He said he had taken over four hundred such photos, but most of them had been stolen in Jordan and India.

			Since the reporter could show none of the photos to his readers, he took notes on what he saw
			as he viewed the album and used his descriptions to give the readers a feel for what Albert
			had photographed. "The objects in the photographs vary in size and shape," he wrote. "One is
			a globular object with a round disc in the centre; another is funnel-shaped; a third is like a neon lamp; a fourth is a big, bright cross and others, bright zigzag lines. Some of these have been taken on the ground and some flying in the sky." The man now sitting in the cave
			claimed he had taken the photographs in Greece, Jordan, and India.

			Good read on. Besides having photographed the ships, Albert claimed to have been visited
			frequently by entities from elsewhere in the galaxy and to have travelled to at least one other inhabited planet. On this unusual planet, "all of the objects were white," he told the reporter. And the space people themselves looked very much like earth humans except they were taller, had a certain glow about them, and were spiritually more advanced. They expressed
			themselves through the transmission of thought patterns.

			The reporter noted that the man's belongings consisted of only a few articles of clothing, his photo album, a folding camera, and two small bags. Travelling with him was a pet monkey
			named Emperor. At the conclusion of the interview, Albert and Emperor were to pack up their
			few belongings and, with a new friend from Germany who had lent Albert a small amount of
			money, to begin hitchhiking back across the Middle East and eventually return to Switzerland.
			Before they parted ways, he told the reporter, "I have a mission to fulfil," but he refused to say what it was. "I will disclose it when the time comes, positively before a year."

			"The story of Mr. Albert is as incredible as it is startling," the reporter ended his article. "He proposes to relate to German scientists his experiences, show his photographs and the objects that he says he has collected from the planets he visited. Has Mr. Albert created history, or is he a mystic who has let his imagination run wild? Time alone will tell."

			Many years after the article appeared in the New Delhi Statesman, the reporter, S. Venkatesh,
			responded to a letter inquiring about the mysterious Mr. Albert. He wrote: "I distinctly
			remember meeting the man and he seemed, on recollection, very serious about what he was
			saying. I for one would be eager to know what he did later on, whether he encountered any
			more space men and ships and whether he disclosed anything to anyone later, as he promised
			he would."

			Timothy Good read the article twice and returned it to Elizabeth Brunner. She herself had met
			and spoken to Albert, but other than suggesting another friend who might be able to help
			Good locate the man, she could add little to what was in the article.
			"She said he was obviously full of this girl," remembered Good, "in love with this girl from
			outer space." She added only that she felt he was "sincere, and very enthusiastic." Not certain of the man's name and having only the few clues with which Brunner and her friend could provide him, Good decided nevertheless that the story was sufficiently interesting for him to pursue.

			"I don't like to make judgments on people until I've met them myself," said Good later, "so in 1965 I eventually tracked him down. It was very difficult."

			The man lived in eastern Switzerland, in the foothills southeast of Zurich. His real name was
			Eduard Albert Meier. During a winter concert tour in 1965, the London Symphony Orchestra
			played in Zurich, and while there, Good went looking for Meier and found that he was living
			with a sister in a small village not far from Hinwil.

			"I actually went out there in the snow and got out to his house and he wasn't there," recalled Good, "so I just had brief words with his sister, who didn't speak any English. She gave me a number where I could contact him, and I spoke to him on the telephone afterwards. He told me that he had recently had an accident, the result of which he had lost an arm. I can't remember much more than that. He gave me the impression of sincerity at that time.
			Subsequent to that, I informed Lou Zinsstag about Meier; however, she didn't do anything
			about it for a long while. She had difficulty getting in touch with him, he was pretty elusive. But she tracked him down eventually and had lots of meetings with him."
