- In opening the program part of the agenda, State
- Director Fawcett stated that we had approximately 174 in
- attendence at the meeting and some had to be turned away due
- to the crowded meeting room. It was also noted that a PA
- system was badly needed for future meetings also.
- The first speaker of the day was Wayne Laporte (Indian
- Trail) who spoke and showed slides covering the topic
- "Dimensionalism." Laporte pursued the theory that many (but
- not all) UFO sightings are triggered by seismic energy
- created by fault line activity and that such events cound not
- only cause electromagnetic effects on soil, animals, machines
- but in some cases can cause hallucinations concerning
- occupant encounters.
- The second speaker was George Fawcett III (Lincolnton)
- who gave an update on recent and upcoming books, T.V.
- documentaries, symposiums, movies, ect. Fawcett chose for his
- topic "An Update on England's Crop Circles" where he outlined
- some of the morepuzzeling ones of over 800 found in England
- in recent years. He also noted that similiar reports recently
- have come from Germany, Japan, Australia, Canada, Kansas,
- Florida and North Carolina. Some involved UFO's.
- Intermission came next with a selection of good food and
- light drinks and was highlighted by a presentation of a
- MUFON-NC, Inc. "First Anniversary" cake provided by Gail
- Feilke, who designed and baked it for the meeting.
- Following the intermission period, a large number of
- door prizes were given to the lucky persons, whose names were
- drawn. A large number of printed handouts, which included
- book lists, meeting notices, resource listings, questionars,
- membership forms, UFO quizes, officer listings were also
- distributed.
- Fawcett next thanked Robert Hair for his presentation of
- a MUFON-NC, Inc. gavel to the organization and passed around
- the engraved gavel to the audience to inspect.
- The thisd speaker of the day was Ginger Richardson
- (Charlotte) whose topic "The John Lear Story, The Greys, Us
- and Alien Bases" proved to be both interesting and
- controversial. Richardson covered the hypothesis that our
- government has agreements withe creatures from outer space.
- Our government allegedly gets advances technical knowledge
- in exchange for harmless medical experiments on humans. The
- USA-ALIEN pact apparently has been violated by these
- creatures, who have proceeded to abduct humans for food and
- impregnate women to create hybrid offspring, ect.
- The fourth speaker was Mark Blashar (MUFON-Va. State
- Director from Manakin-Sabot) who told of "Updated UFO Events
- From Virginia." Blashar noted an increase of reports in
- Virginia and told of auto chases, occupant encounters,
- missing time experiences, radar interferences. These cases
- involved domed discs, manta ray, and diamond-shaped objects.
- The fifth speaker was Dr. Steven Greer (Ashville) who
- feels there is a real chance for bilateral exchange
- (communications). Dr. Greers thesis and talk "The CE5
- Initative" was well received also. He feels that humans must
- extinguish destructive behavior like war, before alien
- contacts can begin. They are seeing such contacts themselves,
- but are cautious of their oun security as well. Case in
- point: Father Gill "waving hands" contact in New Guinea, also
- car "blinking lights" responses elsewhere.
- A reminder by Fawcett that after the meeting, members
- and guests would ajourn and meet at a nearby Shoney's for
- food and further questions came next.
- The five hour meeting came to an end after the showing
- of a 52 minute video film entilted "UFOs: A Scientific
- Enigma", produced by the MUFON-Mass. organization and
- provided by Danny Barger of Lincolnton.
