- If you get a map of Nevada look for Nellis Air Force Base you will notice

- (MAJ are the last three letters of the badge code, unless you are a

-
- This was true up until recently. A few weeks ago, I attended the UFO Expo
- West in L.A. I spoke with Bud Hopkins, Linda Moulten-Howe, Bill Cooper
- and a many others that are active in UFO research (I guess that I should
- mention John Lear). Since there has been such an incredible increase in
- alien activity regarding abductions, the obvious U. S. government involvement
- and the increase in cattle mutilations (we're talking epidemic
- proportions here), that somewhere along the line, one of these illustrious
- people decided that we (meaning serious investigators) had better start taking
- responsibility for ourselves (meaning earth humans),
- (since our Majestic government is unwilling or unable to do anything about
- what is going on), and create a new category. I've only heard about it's
- existence for less than a year, but, it seems like a good idea.

-
- True. But only if you actually get contacted! Whatever works. Telepathy
- is second only to dumb luck (or is it divine planning or a cosmic
- coincidence?) Some suggest that there is something in the DNA of
- special earth humans that attracts certain groups of aliens.
- Anyway, my suggestion is that you be careful. All those creatures out
- there are NOT friendly. If you don't believe me, try talking to any one of
- the thousands of abductees (I've only chatted with a few score).
-
- Billy Meier always got a cold feeling on his forehead (third eye region)
- before his telepathic communications with the Pleiadeans. Others get a ringing
- in their ears or a pressure at the base of the skull. Usually, its' just
- (just?) a voice in the head. (I wonder, is this the same as clairaudience?
- No, I guess not.)
-
- Happy attunements!

- I suggest that you go to your local library and check out a few books
- and do some actual reading on the subject. I think you would be MOST
- enlightened by even a cursory look through.
-
- In case you missed it...about 2 weeks ago CBS aired a show on a Friday

- the already few *thousands* known to investigators.
-
- Also, in case you missed it, last night on Monday night's "Hard Copy"
- was a piece done on Dr Marina Popovich, a former officer in the Russian
- Air Force and Cosmonaut in the Russian Space Program who told of a
- mysterious dis-appeaance of one of two probes sent to sent back data
- on Mars. I believe this happenned in 1988-89. The probe sent back it's
- LAST picture of a shadow being cast against Phobos, that was calculated
- at 25 kilometeres long and 3 kilometeres wide in the shape of a cigar,
- before the probe went.....poof! and I mean as in GONE!
-
- This was discussed according to her contacts in the Russian military
- with Gorby and Bush at the 1990 Malta summit.
-
- It is preeminently EASY to flame or dismiss UFO's...it is much harder
- to accept the FACT that they are HERE and we are finding out that not
- only ARE they here, but their inhabitants are not some fluffy bunch
- of benovolent space beings who are here to save the world. Quite
- the opposite is the case. Locate a book written by Jacques Vallee
- entitled, "Confrontations".
-
- The deeper that investigations are allowed to proceed, the more
- outright *disturbing* facts about the GREYS/REPTOIDS are being
- revealed. Keep your mind open and do some basic reading.

- These are said to be the "bad" aliens that allegedly made deals with

- atropied digestive systems and take nourishment in through the skin
- and pass excrement through the skin as well. They have NO sexual organs,
- and come in sizes ranging from 1 1/2 feet tall all the way up to 8 feet
- tall. They do not possess emotions like what we would call as such. They
- regard humans with disdain and view us as "lab rats". They are primarily
- the ones responsible for abductions of people, "programming" them
- with bb-sized implants behind the eyes, or in the back of the nose of

-
- Their "masters" are the Reptoid type DRACO race, said to be enroute

-
- Contrast these heinous alien types with the blondes of the Pleiadian

- the forerunner of the human race, genetically, and the references to

-
- PARANORMAL ACTIVITY AND IT'S
- RELATIONSHIP TO THE UFO ABDUCTION PHENOMENON
- BY
- William S. English
- UFINET News and Information Service
-
- INTRODUCTION:
-
- For many years, UFOs, or Unidentified Flying Objects and
- their research have been classed among the fringe elements of our
- society. Looked upon as being somewhat of a cult and most
- certainly inhabited by screwballs and nut-cases.
- Those who have had Abduction experiences suffer trauma not
- only from the experience, which in many cases is not remembered
- on a conscious level, but also from the trauma of being ridiculed
- by their peers.
- To often, the circumstances surrounding a legitimate
- Abduction case are clouded with extraneous issues that seem to
- complicate the initial issue of abduction by a possible Alien
- life form. Additionally the very nature of those issues often
- cloud the judgement of even the most experienced investigator of
- the UFO Phenomenon. This is due largely in part because of the
- Investigator's desire to find empirical evidence to support the
- existence of UFOs.
- As a result of this, over the past twenty years the majority
- of UFO Investigators have totally ignored another, and perhaps
- most important aspect of UFOlogy. The possible connection of
- Paranormal experiences to UFO abductions.
- Over the years we have equated Paranormal Activities, such
- as channeling, psycho-kinetics, manifestations of odd noises,
- telepathy, and a host of other things associated with it, as
- being totally separate from UFO Investigations. However a recent
- review of files and information for the past twenty years has
- shown a possible connection between the two.
- Most notably this connection seems to be associated with the
- Abduction Phenomenon as shown by Doctor Leo Sprinkle in his work
- as early as 1963.
-
- In an article written by Dr. Sprinkle which appeared in
- "Psychotherapy in Private Practice" Vol.6(3) 1988, he had this to
- say;
- ".......in our contemporary society, those persons who
- describe paranormal/psychic/spiritual crises, or emotional trauma
- from memories of possible past lives, often are faced with
- scoffing or skeptical reactions -- not only from their friends
- and relatives, but sometimes from professional persons, including
- psychotherapists.
- And, if a person describes a UFO experience (including
- abduction by alien beings, out of body experience, near death
- experience, bodily marks from a medical examination, genital
- examination, past life memories, planetary visions, automatic
- writing or telepathic communication, and a message or mission for
- Humankind, etc.), then the psychological resistance of the
- psychotherapist, as well as the emotional trauma of the person,
- can be an important factor -- not only in the process of
- psychotherapy, but in the questions of whether services are
- provided to that person!
- The complex and controversial claims of UFO
- abductees/contactees are a background for the general question:
- Based on the processes of psychotherapy, what do we know about
- UFO experiences?"
-
- In a recent conversation with Dr.Sprinkle I asked him if
- paranormal activity was common among those people who may have
- had possible contact with UFOs, and if so why hadn't we heard
- more about this..?
-
- Dr. Sprinkle's reply was surprising as he went on to say,
- "Yes, it is extremely common. In fact I have been researching the
- Paranormal question since 1963 and was asked by the Lorenzens
- (Jim and Coral Lorenzen of APRO) to write a chapter for a book
- they were writing in the mid 70's that dealt with this very
- issue."
-
- Interestingly enough, Dr. Sprinkle, for many years seemed to
- be the only professional Psychologist who even adhered to the
- idea that UFOs were possibly real. Having established a
- reputation in his field for his regressive hypnosis sessions with
- several of the more modern day abduction reports Dr. Sprinkle has
- become the foremost authority on the subject of Abductions.
-
- In the same article he went on to express several tentative
- viewpoints:
-
- 1.) I believe that `flying saucers' (UFOs) exist.
-
- 2.) I believe that I cannot prove to anyone that UFOs exist.
-
- 3.) I believe that UFO research is always frustrating, often
- fearful, sometimes fun.
-
- 4.) I believe that psychotherapeutic services and social
- support for UFO Experiencers are helpful to them in
- accepting the reality of these experiences and in
- understanding of the silliness and the significance of these
- experiences.
-
- 5.) I believe that there are many skills that can be useful
- to the psychotherapist who works with UFO Experiencers, but
- the main attributes are courage, curiosity, and compassion.
-
- 6.) I appreciate the willingness of UFO Experiencers to
- share their information, and the willingness of professional
- colleagues to assist UFO Experiencers.
-
- Perhaps, someday, UFO research can lead to results which
- could test the hypothesis that UFO activity is an
- educational program.
- This last remark seemed somewhat new age'ish on the Good
- Doctor's part, but in light of the recent revelation of a few
- years ago that he himself had apparently been abducted as a
- child, it is understandable.
-
- PART TWO
-
-
- In some cases we as investigators have to ask the question
- concerning the types of encounters that many abductees
- experience. In so doing the questions will elicit some type of
- answer or reaction. Bearing in mind it is often difficult for the
- investigator, or for that matter, the psychotherapist to either
- understand or accept the answers they are given.
- This comes not from a desire to deny the subject's
- experiences, but more form the point of view, that it is
- difficult for the Investigator/Psychotherapist to accept the
- answer. In many cases the subject will present an answer
- unacceptable to the Investigator/Psychotherapist. This seems to
- be the case with regard to paranormal activity which may
- accompany such an encounter.
- Throughout the several years Dr. Sprinkle has devoted his
- efforts to finding the answers to this phenomenon, he has put
- forth the following hypothesis:
-
- Thesis 1.
- There is sufficient evidence to accept the hypothesis that
- many UFO witnesses have experienced encounters with space craft
- that are piloted or controlled by intelligent alien beings (e.g.,
- Hynek, 1972;Jacobs, 1975; Randles, 1983; Rutledge, 1981; Smith,
- 1987).
-
- Thesis 2.
- There is sufficient evidence to accept the hypothesis that
- many UFO witnesses have experienced abductions and examination by
- UFO occupants, including bodily, psychological, and/or sexual
- examinations (e.g., Fowler, 1979, 1982; Fuller, 1966; Hopkins,
- 1981, 1987; Lorenzen & Lorenzen, 1967, 1976, 1977; Sprinkle,
- 1979, 1981; Strieber, 1987).
-
- Thesis 3.
- There is sufficient evidence to accept the hypothesis that
- most UFO witnesses are normal in their psychological functioning
- (e.g., Bloecher, Clamar, & Hopkins, 1985; Keul & Phillips, 1986;
- Parnell, 1987; Schwarz, 1983; Sprinkle, 1976b, 1979a).
-
- Thesis 4.
- There is sufficient evidence to accept the hypothesis the
- psychic phenomena, including "channeled" communications, are
- associated with UFO encounters; further, there is emerging
- evidence that UFO contactees view themselves as changing from
- "planetary persons" to "cosmic citizens" (e.g., Davis, 1985;
- Kannenberg, 1982, 1986; Kinder, 1987; Montgomery, 1985; Puharich,
- 1974; Sprinkle, 1981; Steiger & Steiger, 1981).
- Remembering the previously mentioned hypothesis, let us
- review certain facts;
-
- "In a majority of cases the contactees/victims are initially
- unaware of their contact experience on a conscious level. They
- have subliminated their experiences to a subconscious level."
-
- We know this is possible due to findings from victims of
- childhood sexual assaults and in many cases rape victims, and in
- some cases, victims of violent crime or accidents. As an act of
- mental self-defense, the incident or incidents are forcefully
- forgotten, either through external influences (i.e., programming
- on the part of the abductors) or through the psychological
- processes that come into play to create a mental feeling of
- security.
-
- "Awareness of the contact experience can, and often times
- remains dormant until such time as an incident/phase/word or
- experience triggers the memory, and starts the process of
- bringing the memory to the conscious level."
-
- At this point we now begin to see the manifestation of
- paranormal activity. In many cases the contactee/victim begins to
- feel a feeling of un-rightness, i.e., unexplainable fear,
- paranoia, panic attacks etc. . .. In other cases the paranormal
- activity will manifest itself in other ways, such as;
-
- Psycho-kinetic Activity (Poltergeist)
-
- Manifestation of visual phenomena (Green fireballs, visions of
- ghost, physical assaults upon the victim or members of the
- victims household.)
-
- The hearing of ghostly high pitched voices, screaming warnings
- that only the victim can hear.
-
- Telepathy and premonitions.
-
- At the same time we must enquire as to the validity of these
- manifestations. A case in point...
-
- A college educated male, approximately 30 years of age
- recalled a series of paranormal incidents that began at the age
- of twenty years and resulted ultimately in the discovery that he
- was in fact an abductee at the age of four years.
-
- ".....I was twenty. I was living in Jamestown, California at
- the time with three other young people in an old house outside of
- town. One night I returned to my bedroom after getting up to use
- the bathroom. I turned off the light, got in my bed and laid on
- my left side. As soon as I laid down I "knew" there was something
- in the room with me. I could "feel" it thinking. I immediately
- became aware of something moving to me from across the room and
- it stood on the foam pad right in front of my face and made a
- depression there that my hands, which were up by my face started
- to roll into. Then suddenly there was a weight on top of my body
- that pushed me down through the support of my pad into the floor
- and held me there paralysed. There also was a load sound in my
- upturned right ear which sounded as though something were yelling
- or shouting or exhaling right against my ear. It was one long
- sound though there was no variation in timbre, frequency, or
- pitch and it continued for the entire time that I could not
- move."
- He went on to say that he slept for a year or two
- afterwards with a light on in his room or shining into his room
- from another room.
-
- He continued. "....a few days before I moved out of that
- place in fear of whatever it was that happened, I was watching
- T.V. in the living room in broad daylight when I felt as if
- something were touching the insides of my thighs, like there was
- something invisible trying to push them apart. I now do not
- believe that there was actually something there at the moment,
- but that it was a strong subliminal memory of having been touched
- there. Also when I was moving back down to college I had a
- similar sensation across my upper abdomen while I was driving a
- car. That wasn't the end of my experiences. It followed me to
- where I moved and ten months later I had a UFO sighting over
- Modesto, California at very close range. Which by the way I
- didn't associate with my prior experiences. There was also a
- vivid "dream" I had where something had gone into my
- consciousness, made me feel euphoric, and made my life pass
- before my eyes while they re-experienced it with me as if they
- were looking for something (This was also associated with a
- sighting in the dream) They also did something to the back of my
- head. The memory of these things persisted in bothering me for
- years. At the time I moved away from the rural areas thinking
- that these things would stop. I didn't know what was happening to
- me. I began having panic attacks after the one experience in
- Jamestown and I had never had them before. All of this was quite
- unsettling and I couldn't figure out why when I was having one of
- the best times of my life that something so strange would start
- plaguing me."
-
- The incidents that happened to this subject are most
- certainly of a paranormal nature, and fall classically into that
- category. However, let us examine several possibilities we as UFO
- investigators seem to overlook.
-
- As of yet, science has not been able to adequately explain
- the cause of Paranormal activity. Science has defined paranormal
- activity as something laying outside of the realm of the normal
- acceptable standards that have been established for human
- behavior. Yet at the same time they are just now, within the last
- one hundred years, beginning to define that human behavior and
- the accompanying dysfunctions inherent in it.
- For the most part, the activity that seems to accompany a
- Contactee/victim is of a paranormal nature as clearly defined by
- Dr. Sprinkle in his fourth hypothesis, However in recent years it
- has also become apparent the term paranormal activity, can
- encompass several other things as well as the afore mentioned
- items.
-
- Let us as investigators, for the moment ignore the
- paranormal aspects of such encounters and look at other possible
- explanations using the above example.
-
- Several years after the paranormal experiences related
- above, the subject was hypnotically regressed by Kathy
- McCampbell, daughter of Mr. James McCampbell, and it was
- discovered that as a child of four years of age he in fact was
- abducted. The following is his recollection of the abduction
- experience.
-
- "I was with the group of girls (his mother was a Girl Scout
- Leader) and then I remember being away from them, then I became
- very dizzy, I remember being carried then seeing something come
- down from above the tree line. I was handed up into something (it
- was on the ground) it looked round and silver kind of like a
- diving bell and was not that large. I opened my eyes, there were
- three of them on either side of me looking down at me. The next I
- know is that I'm sitting up but I am leaning against one of them
- who is at my side. He is holding something on top and at the back
- of my head."
-
- As it can be seen, there seems to be a similarity between
- the abduction encounter and the paranormal incidents previously
- related.
- Examining it more closely, the initial paranormal incident
- where the subject felt the presence of something in the room and
- then felt the pressure on top of him and the loud noise in his
- ear has at least one explanation, that being that the subject for
- some reason had a subconscious memory triggered and then relived
- a portion of the initial abduction experience. The reliving of
- the experience seemed so real at the time it is difficult if not
- impossible for the subject to separate the reality from the
- illusion. Therefore the subject believes that the paranormal
- incident did in fact take place. Further evidence of this is
- during the second paranormal encounter the subject felt something
- touching the inside of his thighs, and then during the third
- incident, something touching his upper torso. During the
- following two incidents however, he admitted to having more of a
- feeling that it was a memory rather than a real experience. Like
- so many other victims of sexual assault and violent crime, he
- began to remember the incidents in a way that would allow his
- mental well being to stay intact, while at the same time
- gradually learning to cope with the incident.
- This is a rather simplistic explanation, however it does not
- answer all of the questions that arise when dealing with
- paranormal activity, and it most certainly does not answer the
- questions concerning the validity of such activity.
-
- It is at this point that we as investigators and members of
- the psychological and mental health professions begin to enter
- into extremely dangerous territory. `Is paranormal activity
- real?'
- There is evidence to indicate that some paranormal activity
- is real. Such things as ghost, poltergeist etc. . .. As for the
- other things that seem to be more commonly associated with UFO
- encounters, it is difficult to say on a more logical level.
- In most cases the evidence seems to be self perpetuating in that
- over the years unrelated cases have been investigated that show
- striking similarities. These similarities are easily explained by
- some, yet there is always the hidden fact that is kept hidden by
- most good investigators in order that they may have a control
- factor in which to gauge the validity of other cases.
- In short, this is an area and a decision which lays entirely
- in the hands of the psychotherapist and the UFOlogist. It is
- their own personal beliefs which must decide whether or not they
- believe in the paranormal aspects involved with this phenomenon.

- PART THREE
-
- Assuming for the moment paranormal activity is in fact real
- in some form or another, let us examine further it's relationship
- with the UFO/Abductee/Contactee Phenomena.
-
- In most cases paranormal activity and abilities are existent
- to some degree in all of us. Whether it be the ability to look
- briefly into the future (DejaVu), to detect the loss of a loved
- one before being told, telepathy (such as in twins), psycho-
- kinesis, etc. . .. However, these abilities lay dormant until
- something, either an event or a memory, triggers the ability. In
- many cases this particular event is the result of a trauma, or
- for that matter, the incident that is triggered was a trauma in
- itself.
- One particular point that we must remember is the human mind
- and brain is the most complex and even today unknown aspect of
- the Human-being. We can chart the Brain, and even have a fair
- idea as to what each particular area within the brain will
- control. But! We are unable to delve deeper into it to look at
- the area most commonly referred to as the soul. That part which
- makes up our personalities, our abilities to think and discern
- information. Control emotions, or for that matter, what creates
- those emotions which separate us from the lower orders of the
- animal kingdom. In short, we don't fully know what exactly the
- abilities are within the human animal.
- An interesting point which should be considered is, most
- biologist will tell you the brain capacity of the lower orders of
- the animal kingdom reflect the full mental ability of those
- animals, barring mental retardation or defects. Yet a human
- brain, followed by the dolphin, is one of the largest, if not the
- largest brain within the mammalian chain. And we do not use it to
- it's fullest capacity. This is odd since development on an
- evolutionary scale theoretically says all life forms physically
- develop to their fullest capabilities. If this holds true, then
- why hasn't humankind? Or is there the possibility that we did,
- and then through some cataclysmic occurrences we lost those
- abilities..?
- Having set the stage somewhat, and seeing that the human
- brain or the human animal is capable of far more than many of us
- give credit to it, lets us now examine closely the relationship
- between Paranormal Activity and UFO contacts.
-
- Accepting the possibilities previously stated, we as human-
- beings have created in our minds and in our a world a certain
- amount of stability based upon what we consider to be
- incontrovertible facts. But I now ask the question; "What if
- those facts we have established are found to be falsehoods?" This
- creates an interesting dilemma....How would we cope with such a
- revelation? I present the following theory for your
- consideration...
-
-
-
- Theorem....
-
- Throughout the span of recorded history, the human animal
- has given basic and simple explanations to those things we are
- incapable of understanding. We have placed these strange
- occurrences into categories we are comfortable with. Such things
- as Religion to explain celestial beings (angels), and beings
- horrible and evil (demons). Those things defying our ability to
- explain technologically or logically became things of magic and
- Witchcraft. As humankind progressed through the sciences and
- technology, what was once within the realm of religion and magic
- went into the realm of science and logic, and this is where our
- development stands.
- Suddenly there comes into our existence something which
- cannot be placed within the normal classifications we have
- established for ourselves. Since we no longer for the most part
- believe in magic, we attempt to place it within the realm of
- science. Yet when we are unable to give logical explanations
- through science, it then falls within the realm of magic, or the
- paranormal, which falls outside of both magic and the sciences.
- It is at this point the primal instincts of the human animal come
- into play, and at the same time something even more astounding.
- The human brain's ability to protect itself from something that
- does not compute or work within it's ability to assimilate.
- Unlike a computer however, it reprograms itself to continue
- functioning on a relatively normal level until such time as more
- information becomes available to help it assimilate the
- previously blanked out data. At this point some unusual
- occurrences take place causing the brain to trigger the
- previously blanked memories and bringing them forward from the
- sub-conscious into the conscious area of the mind, or Id. With
- this occurrence comes increased metal activity that creates an
- increase in Neuro-electrical activity within the brain itself,
- thereby increasing the brain's natural abilities to manipulate
- it's physical surrounding without physical intervention..
-
- This theorem may not be as far fetched as it may sound. We
- know that bio-electrical activity is one of the motivating
- factors which makes the human body animate, function, and live.
- We also know for example that in the event of injury to either
- the brain or the Neuro-systems (nervous system) certain parts of
- the human body cease to function.
- Taking it a step further, we currently are able to
- manipulate invisible electrical forces in the form of Radio and
- television waves, which transmit pictures, turn motors, and make
- possible such innovations as the modern home computer. Therefore
- the idea of the human brain creating such amounts of electrical
- activity as to be able to control and effect it's surrounding
- environment is not far fetched at all.
-
- Now you ask the question; "What has this to do with UFO
- Abductees/Contactees?
-
-
-
- Simply put, we must first consider two possibilities. The
- first being we have accepted that UFOs and Aliens do exist, and
- therefore based upon the available evidence human-beings are
- being contacted and/or being forcefully abducted for whatever
- purposes.
- Because of the trauma caused these Abductees/Contactees
- their brains have shut down in order to be able to assimilate the
- data necessary to cope with this incident in their lives. In many
- cases these incidents are on-going occurrences which would
- require some sort of mental manipulation on the part of the
- abductors to keep control of their subject. Because of the
- ingrained human survival instinct the human brain begins to
- increase it's bio-electrical activity thereby causing paranormal
- activity in it's surrounding vicinity. whether it manifest itself
- as uncommonly clear memories that cause the abductee/contactee to
- relive the physical sensations that they were subjected to during
- the course of their abduction, or other physical manipulations in
- their surroundings i.e..poltergeist, telepathy, psycho-kinesis..
- The second possibility we must consider is the physical
- modification or manipulation of the human brain on the part of
- the abductors i.e..implants, bio-genetic engineering or
- modifications etc..We know that it is possible to control the
- human mind or at least certain areas of the brain that will cause
- pleasure and pain, anger and apathy. Therefore why is it not
- possible for a possibly more advance culture to have carried this
- further and be able to control all aspects of the brain? Making
- possible such things as channeling (communications) and all of
- the previously mentioned paranormal phenomena.
-
- A recent review of case studies that date back as far as the
- late to middle fifties has shown that in almost all instances
- where a person reports abduction or contact in some form or
- another there is almost always paranormal activity reported.
- Currently there are certain individuals within the
- UFO/paranormal fields who have shown and uncanny ability to
- predict where and when a UFO sighting or flap is about to occur.
- Increased E.S.P abilities, etc...In almost all cases it has been
- shown that they are abductees or contactees..
-
- CONCLUSIONS
-
- Contrary to popular belief, it is apparent that Paranormal
- Activity and UFO related Activity are NOT separate issues, but
- rather, are one in the same. Both being an integral part of the
- other, and both playing a significant role in the lives of the
- Abductees/Contactees.
-
- It is apparent that we as Investigators and Psychotherapist
- can no longer ignore the fact that Paranormal activity does occur
- in some form or another in relationship to the
- UFO/Abduction/Contact Phenomena.
-
-
- We as Investigators and Psychotherapeutic professionals must
- come together to establish criteria in which to investigate and
- treat Abduction/Contact trauma victims, bearing in mind that
- these people require a different type of treatment and inter-
- action between the investigator, psychotherapist, and mental
- health professional.
-
- The psychotherapeutic profession must help establish the
- acceptance within the mental health professions that there is
- indeed a whole phenomena in existence that does in fact deal with
- UFO contact and abduction, and that new methods are required to
- treat and deal with these unfortunates. Most importantly they
- must also be taught to accept the fact that whenever a victim of
- such occurrences comes to them for professional help, they are
- NOT crazy, but in fact show be in the same classification as that
- of sexual abuse, and violent crime victims.
-
- We as Investigators must educate ourselves for a better
- understanding of the trauma that victims of Abduction undergo,
- and become aware of the various aspects of Paranormal activity
- that in fact do exist..

- A VOICE IN THE WILDERNESS
-
- Recently, Jacques Vallee has been making more public
- appearances following a hiatus which took him out of the American
- ufological scene for nearly ten years. His reasons for the
- absence were directly tied to the disgust he felt toward the
- methodology employed by UFO researchers and investigators. A
- very controversial figure, Vallee is highly regarded within the
- French and European community, where it appears progress is being
- made due to a diverse attitude among our European counterparts.
- One has to agree that things are a sad state of affairs right
- here at home. Virtually no progress is being made as we are
- actually further from an answer than we were ten years ago. This
- can be credited to the lack of a focused, scientific approach,
- coupled with a move away from critical thinking so necessary to
- begin to understand the complexities that this enigma presents.
-
- Vallee has published two books of late - Confrontations and
- Dimensions, which detail the fruits of his research, conducted
- quietly and away from the public scene. Vallee's message is
- clear - The UFO phenomenon represents a clear and present danger.
- His research indicates that we may be dealing with an extremely
- complex set of models that demand scientific discipline and a
- whole new approach to the problem. Vallee is highly concerned
- with the public's seeming "blind faith" acceptance of the "space
- brothers" scenario, considering that there are serious
- actions on the part of the phenomenon to do harm to individuals
- ithout any consideration for our comfort or feelings. The
- problem is agitated further by unqualified personnel performing
- hypnotic regression which seems to cement the contact to fit the
- hypnotists idea of what happened, instead of what really
- happened. This, as Vallee says, attempts to force the event into
- the victim's reality, when it really doesn't belong. Although
- Vallee has drawn a lot of fire from noted abduction researchers
- such as Budd Hopkins, his ideas are not far from accepted
- scientific methodology. Hypnosis is not for the unqualified to
- be performing. It belongs with credible, degreed medical
- personnel who know the intricacies involved with the procedure.
- More harm is being done to the alleged victim than good when
- unqualified people perform the regression. The victim is often
- left with the trauma of the contact, and cannot effectively deal
- with it. It must be treated as a medical problem. As Vallee
- states about unqualified hypnotists dealing with victims: "It is
- unprofessional and unethical." With this he sharply criticizes
- Dr. Edith Fiore, who took a course on hypnosis during a weekend
- and began to regress abductees the following Monday morning.
- The question comes down to: Are we interested in getting to
- the bottom of this problem, or are we more concerned with the
- sensational aspect of it? If the answer is the former, than we
- must begin to police our own backyard and change the direction of
- things. The data pool is so polluted and corrupt with
- information that has been arrived at with faulty investigative
- methods, that we are drawing false conclusions about what UFOs
- really represent. We must have an open mind. But, we also must
- employ a methodology that is akin to forensic investigative
- methods. In this respect, we will make substantial progress, and
- with the data that is collected in this fashion, be able to
- construct theoretical models which hold some hope for the answer.
- ParaNet has reprinted the entire interview with Jacques
- Vallee. We invite your discussion and comments.

- AN INTERVIEW WITH JACQUES VALLEE
-
- BY George W. Earley
- In 1980, Jacques Vallee "disappeared" from organized
- ufology. The author of several ground-breaking (and often
- controversial) UFO books, a one-time associate of (and co-author
- with) the late Dr. J. Allen Hynek, vanished almost as quickly and
- quietly as a UFO itself.
- Almost a decade would pass before Vallee reappeared; when he
- did, he aroused even more controversy than he had in the 1970s.
-
- Vallee's reappearance was signaled by publication of two
- books: Dimensions (Ballantine; 1989) sought to show that the
- phenomenon we call UFOs has been with humanity throughout-and
- likely even before recorded history. His second book,
- Confrontations (Ballantine; 1990), chastised ufologists as
- scientifically inept investigators, detailed the in-depth and
- hands on investigations (many of them done outside the U.S.) he
- undertook during the 1980s, and expressed his strong belief that
- UFOs and their allegedly attendant beings were likely not
- extraterrestrial, but interdimensional forms.
- I caught up with him in Portand, Oregon, several months ago,
- and between his early morning appearance on a local TV show and a
- press conference, the following tape recorded conversation
- ensued.
- Earley: I saw the program on TV this morning and you
- mentioned the Costa Rica photograph. I looked at the one in
- Confrontations and the analysis of it and it still seems
- inconclusive. What do you feel we need to have for a photo to be
- thoroughly acceptable not only to the scientific community but to
- the media and the public?
- Vallee: Well, in this case we are taking the analysis step
- by step. We are purposely very careful, not making any claims
- that we can't prove as we go along.
- The first thing that was done was to work from a 2nd
- generation negative that I brought back from Costa Rica. Dick
- Haines1 and I published an initial article in the Journal of
- Scientific Exploration.2 When that article was refereed and
- reviewed, a couple of referees raised questions about what the
- image could be and what artifacts could have caused it. Now we
- have the original negative which I have succeeded in getting out
- of Costa Rica. As you know, it is a photograph taken by a mapping
- aircraft of the government of Costa Rica and it belongs to the
- government. What I have now is the original uncut negative, the
- frame that shows the object, the frame before and the frame
- after, taken at 20 second intervals. We have looked at it,
- magnified it, printed it with different densities, and so on.
- That eliminates all the claims of possible artifacts. We know
- this is not a double exposure, we know this is not a fine
- particle trapped in the film...this is a real image. It is a
- large image. The next step is to digitize it-we do not have
- access to such a place here [in America] but I know people in
- France who can do it, with superb facilities for computer photo
- analysis. We are waiting for them to digitize the frames and to
- do enhancement and comparisons of one frame to the next.
- Earley: I'll be interested in hearing the results of their
- work. Now, during your TV appearance today, just before and
- after each commercial break, the station used some of those
- controversial saucer photos taken in Switzerland by Edward Meier.
- Has anyone analyzed them? I know there have been a couple of
- books about him but I don't believe his claims have ever been
- seriously examined.
- Vallee: In the case of Meier, the negatives have never been
- available, to my knowledge. Without the negatives, one can do
- nothing. So it goes back to a question of belief. I am very,
- very skeptical of the Meier case. I've been to his place in
- Switzerland. Nobody can tell me this is an average Swiss
- farmer...[chuckles]...the man has led an extremely interesting
- life. The photographs themselves are not convincing. No one
- will be able to tell for sure until we can work from the
- negatives and the negatives have never been available. And
- there's no good reason for withholding them. In a situation
- where someone has had a genuine experience, there should be full
- disclosure. There is no reason to hide anything.
- Earley: I agree. I would also note that the space beings
- he says he's meeting with are more like those described by George
- Adamski in the 1950s than the beings that are reported today. I
- don't know how you feel about this but it raises a warning flag
- for me.
- Vallee: Yes. And the place...I was there last summer
- [1989]. The place is run like a cult. Visitors are screened by
- members of his group. He is not at all living in poverty,
- getting up at sunup to work in the fields. He has a large house,
- with the flag of his organization in front of it, a guest book
- which has been signed by every TV station in Japan which has come
- through there. There is a satellite antenna to pick up foreign
- television broadcasts...this is an organized cult. It is not
- just the average farmer who has happened to see UFOs.
-
- GULF BREEZE
-
- Earley: Very interesting. Have you talked with Dr. Bruce
- Maccabee about the Gulf Breeze case?
- Vallee: Yes I have. And I respect Dr. Maccabee, he's a
- good scientist. I've looked at the photographs, spent two to
- three hours with him in Washington. I should qualify this -- I
- don't like to talk about cases I have not investigated myself. I
- have not gone to Gulf Breeze purposely, I am not trying to
- investigate it. As you know from my book, I put the highest
- priority on cases that have not been reported and cases that are
- not big media cases with fanfare...those are the cases where I
- can achieve something within my limitations, where I can get
- somewhere. I like the cases that have been very quiet or where
- interest has disappeared over the years. Then I can go to the
- site and meet the people and be seriously involved and this is
- certainly not the case in Gulf Breeze.
- Now on the technical questions I have about Gulf Breeze,
- I've never gotten an answer.
- One question is: Why don't we have a spectrum of the
- illumination? The object appeared again and again and again; it
- appeared often enough that the witness could be supplied with a
- camera that had four different lenses on it. Well, it would be a
- simple thing to sacrifice one of the lenses and put a
- [diffraction] grating in front of the objective [lens] and get a
- spectrum and then we would know once and for all if it's a good
- old 200-watt Sylvania light bulb in there or if it is something
- unknown to physics. At least we would know that. From the
- photographs you can't tell.
- Another thing that is very, very disturbing is that, as you
- know, the witness, Ed Walters, has a (criminal) record. Well,
- that is neither here nor there -- people with records see UFOs
- just like people with no records. But that does have an
- influence on the way one would analyze a sighting. And the fact
- that he has a record is not disclosed in the book. And I think
- that's wrong! I feel there should be full disclosure.
- Earley: There was a vague mention of an "indiscretion" or
- something like that. I would note that in a recent issue of Jim
- Moseley's Saucer Smear newsletter 3, Walters writes that because
- of "my reputation as a responsible business man and community
- leader" he has been granted "a Full Pardon" by Florida Governor
- Bob Martinez. Of course that doesn't take away the guilt of what
- he did...I know Phil Klass loves to get into things like that.
- He pointed out that Travis Walton had also been charged with
- forgery...
-
- Vallee: I think that's relevant and it should always be
- disclosed. There should be no question in disclosing it. The
- fact that in this case there is no full disclosure, that the book
- represented him as a pillar of the community, I find that wrong.
- Earley: I think the pardon came after the book was
- published. Perhaps it will be put in the 2nd edition...
- I'd like to talk about witness harassment and ridicule. You
- mentioned this topic in your book; I believe in one instance you
- wrote of "vandalism." Was this to a victim's home or car?
- Vallee: If you remember, there were several cases like
- this. There was a policeman in the Midwest, Herbert Schirmer,
- who suffered from harassment. Even in the case of Lonnie Zamora,
- he was harassed and had to leave the police department. The
- kids, when he tried to arrest them in Socorro [New Mexico], would
- say "Why are you after me? Look at that flying saucer over
- there. It's going faster than I am. Why don't you arrest it and
- leave me alone?" And in the famous case in Michigan, the "swamp
- gas" case, the witness's house was pelted with beer bottles and
- Coke bottles and cans...jsut the reaction of the friendly local
- community.
- Earley: And the police chief in Alabama I think it was, who
- took the picture of an alleged entity...Greehaw, was it? I think
- he resigned because of the hassles he had. Have any of your
- fellow scientists done any sociological studies as to why there
- should be this reaction to UFO reports?
- Vallee: Not any formal studies. It is a normal human
- reaction in a way; there is a reaction of laughter to relieve
- tension and the fear of the unknown. It's nice to be able to
- laugh at it and it makes you look smart. It is a normal reaction
- by people who don't want to be bothered by such things. I don't
- know what it will take for people to grow up and recognize this
- phenomenon as something very important. I hope that my book will
- be a contribution in that direction. Among my colleagues it has
- started to have that effect. After reading the book they
- understand that this is obviously not just a bunch of uneducated
- people in the countryside sitting by the river and watching
- flying saucers come by...
- Earley: So you're getting a positive reaction from your
- colleagues in the United States as well as in France?
- Vallee: Absolutely.
-
- COSMIC IMPLICATIONS
-
- Earley: That's encouraging. Because what it gets down to
- is how do we develop a proof that will allow people to take this
- seriously...why are people ignoring the, shall we say, "cosmic"
- implications of the UFO phenomenon?
- Vallee: Well, you know, the people who are interested in
- the UFO phenomenon...we've been guilty of pushing the
- extraterrestrial theory to the exclusion of everything else. The
- word from many people in the public and also in the scientific
- community is -- either UFOs don't exist and it is all illusions
- and mistakes and hoaxes and so forth, or we are being visited by
- beings from outer space. It seems to be either one or the other.
- Well, it doesn't have to be one or the other. What I find
- is that people start paying attention when you tell them "Hey, of
- course it could be aliens or a form of intelligence from outer
- space, but it could be other things too!" Then they start to
- want to know more, they start thinking...before they had to
- decide between not believing the witnesses or agreeing that we
- were being visited by aliens. People have reacted negatively to
- that narrow choice. Scientists have certainly reacted negatively
- to it. They say "Oh yeah? If they are space aliens, how and why
- do they come here?" I had that reaction yesterday at a radio
- station in Seattle. "Why do they do these absurd things people
- say they do? Why do they look like us?"
- We have to deal with the fact that while this phenomenon is
- very complex, it does not have to be extraterrestrial
- necessarily. That opens up many other hypotheses including
- interdimensionality, which is now mainstream physics. There are
- theories about the universe having more than four dimensions, and
- to me the UFO phenomenon is interesting to the extent that it is
- forcing us to ask those questions and to test some of those new
- and exciting theories. When you say that, scientists become
- interested once again because it means that the UFO problem is
- not a closed system anymore.
- What has surprised me is that when you start proposing such
- ideas, the people who react the most negatively, not to say
- venomously, are not the skeptics but the people in the UFO
- community themselves. I have been astonished by this violent
- reaction and you may have seen the comments of Budd Hopkins and
- of Jerry Clark4 calling me a flake for opening up these
- possibilities.
- I've argued before, as you know, with Donald Menzel and I've
- argued with Philip Klass, yet I've never experienced such
- polemics. Mind you, I don't mind the polemics. I'm not
- particularly looking for it, but if it happens, it happens. Yet
- I've never encountered the kind of vitriolic reaction I have with
- Jerry Clark, which was totally uncalled for. It just came out of
- nowhere as far as I'm concerned. That taught me an important
- lesson, though, that I'd not realized before: parochialism
- within the UFO community itself may be what is preventing us from
- being heard by the scientific world.
- Earley: I think that could be a possibility. The "house
- divided" effect...
- Vallee: Jerome Clark is reacting almost as if I had
- questioned something very sacred for him, something that must not
- be questioned by someone who calls himself a UFO researcher. I'm
- questioning the dogma that these beings are ETs...yet when I
- listen to the witnesses, which is what I try to do carefully,
- they tell me they see objects appearing out of nowhere, and
- disappearing on the spot. They don't necessarily see things that
- take off and go up in the sky and go through the atmosphere. In
- some cases they do, but in many cases they describe objects that
- seem to have the ability to operate on space-time, to manipulate
- space-time. Well, if there is a form of consciousness that does
- that, if there is a technology that does that, then it opens up
- all kinds of questions that we have never really considered
- seriously. And from a scientific point of view, number one, it
- makes a lot more sense. Number two, it is much richer in terms
- of what we can do with it in our own research.
-
- Earley: It is, of course, a regrettable fact that the
- scientific community, by and large, has rejected the UFO
- phenomenon out of hand without making any real study of it. I've
- talked to Isaac Asimov. He speaks of "UFO maniacs" in a recent
- book5 on the NASA/SETI program, yet he knows nothing of UFOs.
- When you try to pin him down about his skepticism, he says:
- "Well, I've devoted enough of my time to this and I have many
- other things to do." Carl Sagan does the same thing. A very
- personable man but very glib and shallow in some respects,
- particularly with regard to the UFO phenomenon.
- Vallee: They've never taken time to study the cases
- themselves. All they know about it is what they read in the
- National Enquirer...
- Earley: Are you saying that to a large degree you wrote
- Confrontations for the scientific community and that while you
- are hoping it will have an impact on the public at large,
- basically you were trying to speak to your colleagues?
- Vallee: I'm trying to show that, number one, the data is
- robust enough that it can be studied scientifically. There is no
- lack of parameters that are quantifiable, there is no lack of
- data from technically trained observers. Number two, I am
- showing that the phenomenon also has important medical
- implications, physiological implications that should be studied.
- A lot of attention has recently been placed -- and rightly so --
- on the abduction phenomenon. That is fine, but beyond the
- abduction phenomena there are other types of impacts that should
- be documented and studied: that includes the medical and
- physiological impact and I'm trying to call attention to that.
-
- ABDUCTIONS AND HYPNOSIS
-
- Earley: You mentioned Hopkins' disagreement with your
- theory as to the possible origin of the aliens -- do you still
- feel the abduction phenomenon is a real one?
- Vallee: I've never said otherwise. People have tried to
- imply that I was rejecting the abduction phenomena and I never
- have. As you know, both in this book (Confrontations) and in
- Dimensions, I even talk about abduction cases I've studied. In
- Confrontations you will find the case of the woman I call "Mrs.
- Victor" and several other cases.
- In Happy Camp (California), for example, there was an
- abduction case, among many other things. In some cases I have
- studied those incidents whit the help of hypnotists. But I
- surely would not do the hypnosis myself as some abductionists so.
- As I have said before, and I will say it at every occasion, this
- is unethical and unscientific. What they (the abduction
- hypnotists) are getting is not the truth. They are wrongly
- assuming that they are looking at the first level interpretations
- of what the witnesses have encountered. In many of those
- hypnosis sessions you will find that leading questions are being
- used. Besides, there is obvious screening or self-selection on
- the part of the people who come forward to be hypnotized. There
- is a framework that is put on the experience itself.
- The tragedy is that once that kind of framework has been put
- on the experience, you cannot go back. I've had a number of
- people who have been studied and hypnotized, people who have been
- mentioned in some of the more prominent books on abduction, who
- have come to me saying "my experience was much wider than what is
- described in the book. The author took things out of context to
- fit them in his book, but I need help to deal with other aspects
- of my experience that nobody wanted to look at."
- I'm not in a position to help these people because they've
- already been hypnotized a number of times, they are stuck in a
- certain framework -- I don't know of any way one can go back and
- rehypnotize these people to get back to the original experience.
- Which is why in many cases a...psychiatrist using hypnosis in his
- work will tell you that you have to be very careful and that in
- many cases hypnosis is not even the proper form of investigation.
- Earley: That's why I was frankly appalled at Dr. Edith
- Fiore's book6 because she "learned" hypnosis over one weekend and
- then began using it the following Monday. And now she thinks she
- is an abductee after having been hypnotized by Dr. James Harder.
- I understand Dr. Rima Laibow is saying she's an abductee. It
- seems to me there is a lot of self-contamination and pollution in
- this business.
- But let's take a scenario here. Suppose I came to you and
- said I've been having disturbing dreams and I've read things in
- newspapers and magazines about abductions; maybe I've been
- abducted; you're the first person I've come to about this. What
- would your step-by-step procedure be with a person who approached
- you in that manner?
- Vallee: I think witnesses should only go to trained people.
- Hypnosis is a complex and dangerous thing; people should only go
- to clinical psychologists or M.D.s for that kind of work. There
- is an objection to that, which I have heard from Jerome Clark and
- other people in the UFO field, saying that many witnesses don't
- have access to such experts, so Budd Hopkins and Dave Jacobs and
- others are performing a valuable service when they do it
- themselves because the medical professionals are not always
- available to do it.
- Well, it's obviously a flawed argument. It's like your
- coming to me and saying "I need a triple [heart] bypass. Would
- you please take your kitchen knife and do it because my doctor
- doesn't want to do it?" Well, I'm not qualified to do a triple
- bypass and I'm not qualified to hypnotize anybody and I'm not
- going to learn the technique so I can start hypnotizing people
- left and right. Again, I think this is unethical and
- unscientific and it doesn't get us to the kind of UFO data we
- need.
- In the cases when this situation has happened, what I've
- done is to go to professionals I know. I would not discuss the
- case with a witness. I would say, "Look, we are going to get to
- know each other. You are going to tell me about yourself, but
- let's not talk about UFOs. Please don't read any more on the
- subject for a few weeks until we can get you to see someone who
- is trained in hypnosis." In one case I went to a friend of mine
- who is a clinical psychologist and he said, "You won't need
- hypnosis with this person, there are other ways -- there are much
- more sophisticated techniques that can be used to help people
- remember what happened to them, under their own control."
-
- In certain cases, a "day dreaming" type of technique can
- help the person remember things at his or her own pace. This
- could also come through dreams, it could come through
- drawings...it could take a long time, like months. But this is
- much more intrusive than saying "You-Are-Now-Under-My-Power-and-
- You-Will-Remember-the-Time-When-the-Aliens-Took-You..." which is
- very often what you hear on those ridiculous abduction tapes.
- Earley: This goes along with a recent book review7 that
- examined hypnosis and questioned if hypnosis per se actually
- existed or whether we can, by simply relaxing people, enable them
- to be in a fully waking state but simply have more access to
- their memories.
- Vallee: Again, I'm not a specialist of that field and I'm
- just relaying what different professionals have told me. They
- disagree among themselves so I should obviously qualify that.
- There are obviously some instances where hypnosis is the
- technique of choice. There is another case in my files in which
- I went to a...psychiatrist who is trained in hypnosis. He told
- me he did not want to do it. And his reasons showed the reaction
- of a true professional. He said "I should not be the one doing
- it for two reasons. First of all, I do not have enough recent
- clinical experience with hypnosis. And second, I know you. I've
- read your books and you're a friend of mine and I know too much
- about the subject. We should find somebody who is qualified, who
- knows hypnosis, who has an open mind on UFOs but does not have a
- personal framework..." It is difficult, but such people exist.
- Let me mention another case I've worked on recently, the
- case of a man with a Silicon Valley computer company, who came to
- me because he remembered seeing some objects over Hawaii. He
- wanted to be hypnotized because he felt there had been some
- action of that type (abduction). I took him to a team of two
- doctors. One is not a psychiatrist but an M.D. who uses hypnosis
- in his medical practice and the other one is a psychologist who
- teaches hypnosis to psychologists -- in other words, he is doing
- research on hypnosis and he teaches it. I asked them what kind
- of methodology could be used in abduction cases, how would they
- go about it. they said the only way we should do it is to use
- the standards of admissibility of hypnosis in court. The state
- of California has published some very strict guidelines for when
- hypnosis is admissible in the courts of that state. These
- guidelines are perfect. They are tailor-made for us in UFO
- research. Hypnosis is not admissible unless everything is on
- video tape including the induction phase, so you can see if there
- are leading questions, you can check if there is full disclosure
- in the beginning by the hypnotist on what the person is to expect
- and so on. You should also have physiological measurements; for
- example, skin response measurements and pulse measurements. You
- never see this in UFO abduction research.
- In this case, the two doctors set up a number of instruments
- that were visible to the cameras. There were two cameras
- shooting at the same time so you could always see the instruments
- as you heard the answers; you could have chronological
- correlation. Another expert could alter say, "that person,
- doctor, was not hypnotized when he said this. He was not in a
- state of hypnosis." And different experts could challenge the
- data and argue. Otherwise what you have is pure garbage, you
- just have someone saying something on tape.
- In the case of this man, we found that indeed he remembered
- a lot about the incident in Hawaii but that the real incident did
- not happen in Hawaii. It was many years before and there may
- have been an abduction in the south of the United States when he
- was in a car with his parents. At that point he became so
- agitated that the two doctors got him out of hypnosis, which is
- precisely the point where a ufologist would have jumped up and
- down and said "Oh goody, let's find out what happened! Did they
- have big eyes, were they grey, which planet did they take you
- to..." and so on.
- But the doctors stopped everything and said "We are not
- going to do anything further until we have a therapy contract
- with this man. Obviously this is an extremely traumatic
- experience for him and if we pick it up again we will pick it up
- as part of a course of therapy." That is the reaction of true
- professionals in the business, where you have to worry about
- possibly causing harm to the patient, and keeping your license
- and malpractice and everything else -- all the things ufologists
- treat very lightly.
- Earley: Have they gone deeper into it?
- Vallee: We did not pursue it yet. It will be up to him
- [the subject] to decide if he wants to do more.
-
- ANIMAL MUTILATIONS
-
- Earley: You wrote some introductory remarks to Linda
- Moulton Howe's book, An Alien Harvest...
- Vallee: There are certain parts of the book I would not
- condone or agree with but it is her right to publish it, and I
- wanted to support her work on mutilations. I think she is
- raising a number of important questions the UFO community has
- been ignoring.
- Earley: Do you feel that the mutilations are not being done
- by a normal human agency?
- Vallee: Ahhh...let me put it this way. I made it clear in
- Confrontations that I was not going to discuss mutilations even
- though they were a possibly relevant subject. I've done a number
- of field studies of mutilation cases on the same level as this in
- which there was certainly no classic explanation for what had
- happened to the animals. The witnesses had seen objects in the
- sky at about the same time the mutilations had happened. That
- doesn't mean that I can prove a correlation and that's where I
- stop. I do have an open mind on that. Linda is doing some very
- good work in that field. More people should be looking at it. I
- cannot tell you that there is a link between UFOs and
- mutilations.
- Earley: Would you be planning to publish your research at
- some point?
- Vallee: I don't know. I might.
- Earley: Thank you very much for your time, Dr. Vallee. I
- am sure FATE readers will be interested in your remarks.

-
- BEIJING (MAY 22) UPI - Thousands of people attending an
- official celebration in the southwest province of Sichuan
- spotted a UFO ''slowly spinning'' through the night sky, a
- Chinese report said Wednesday.
-
- The sighting occurred around midnight May 17 over the
- Tibetan district of western Xiangcheng county following a
- heavy rain, according to the semi-official China News
- Service.
-
- The UFO was sighted by a large crowd attending a night rally
- held to mark the 55th anniversary of the communist Red
- Army's passage through the region during the 1934-5 Long
- March, the report said.
-
- ''Thousands of people witnessed the UFO shining and moving
- forward in spirals for 11 minutes,'' the report said.
-
- The unidentified object was described as ''slowly spinning,
- flying from northwest to northeast.''
-
- Xiangcheng county borders Tibet and southwest Yunnan
- province.
-
- The crew of a state-run commercial aircraft also reported
- spotting a UFO over south Sichuan on the same evening, 335
- miles west of the mass sighting, according to the report.
-
- ''The time when Xiangcheng county in west Sichuan discovered
- the UFO on the evening of the 17th was very close to the
- time when the Southwest Aviation Company discovered a UFO in
- the air over Xuyong in south Sichuan,'' China News Service
- said.
-
- There was no explanation for the dual sightings. The
- dispatch cited an unidentified report as saying that a third
- UFO had been spotted over nearby Yunnan at midnight May 17,
- but gave no details.

- With all of the speculation about alien bases on the moon
- and strange phenomena being seen occurring around the moon,
- ParaNet did some research on this and found some very interesting
- artilces pertaining to this phenomena known as Lunar Transient
- Phenomena. Although it is far from being proof that aliens have
- set up bases on the moon, it does provide for some interesting
- reading. During our search, we found a NASA publication titled
- "Chronological Catalog of Reported Lunar Events." This is
- contained in NASA Technical Report R-277, published in July,
- 1968. This document details Lunar Transient Phenomena dating
- back to 1540. We will provide this document in another file, but
- for now, we did find an article that details the scientific
- communities concern now over this strange phenomena.

- LUNAR TRANSIENT PHENOMENA
-
- by Winifred Sawtell Cameron, La Ranchita de la Luna, 200 Rojo
- Drive, Sedona, Arizona
-
- On January 24, 1956 amateur lunar observer R. Houghton was
- drawing the crater Liebig on the edge of Mare Humorum when
- something bright flashed in the field of his 7-inch telescope.
- The flare came from the nearby crater Cavendish, which was just
- emerging from the lunar night. Closer inspection revealed that a
- peak on the crater's eastern wall was repeatedly flashing.
- Houghton called astronomer Brian Warner and told him what to
- look for. Warner too saw the flashes and called them "so
- conspicuous that they were seen immediately." The other peaks in
- the vicinity remained normal.
- On the night of November 2-3, 1958, Soviet astronomer
- Nikolai A. Kozyrev witnessed a strange phenomenon while making
- spectrograms of the crater Alphonsus with the Crimean
- Astrophysical Observatory's 50-inch reflector. As he watched
- through the telescope's guiding eyepiece, he saw the crater's
- central peak blur and turn an unusual reddish color. The
- spectrograms confirmed his visual impressions of a volcanic
- event; they showed an emission spectrum of carbon vapor (S&T:
- February, 1959, page 184).
- On July 19, 1969, the Apollo 11 command module had just
- achieved orbit around the Moon when the Mission Control Center in
- Houston, Texas, received word that amateur astronomers reported
- transient phenomena in the vicinity of the crater Aristarchus.
- Asked to check out the situation, astronaut Neil Armstrong looked
- out his window toward the earthlit region and observed an "area
- that is considerably more illuminated than the surrounding area.
- It just has -- seems to have a slight amount of fluorescence to
- it." Although he wasn't sure, Armstrong believed the region was
- Aristarchus.
- Accounts of lunar transient phenomena (LTP'S) are not new.
- Over the past 30 years, I have collected close to 2,000
- observations dating from as far back as 557 A.D. Most are visual
- reports of bright spots, flashes, hazes, and curious temporary
- colorations of the lunar soil. Reputable observers such as
- William Herschel, Wilhelm Struve, and E. E. Barnard have seen
- them. Some LTP's have even been photographed, as well as recorded
- polarimetrically, photometrically, and spectroscopically. Yet,
- despite a profusion of observations and six Apollo missions to
- the Moon, the nature of LTP's remains elusive and their origin an
- enigma.
- About 200 of some 30,000 lunar features visible in
- telescopes have been recorded as LTP sources. Half have shown
- activity only once. Of the remainder, a mere dozen features
- contribute three-fourths of all reports. One area, Aristarchus-
- Herodotus-Schroters Valley, is responsible for fully one-third of
- the total number sighted.
- Most LTP activity occurs along the edges of the maria, near
- volcanic features, like domes, sinuous rilles, and craters with
- dark halos or floors. But these regions, like the rest of the
- Moon, have long been considered geologically dead. Circular maria
- are large, primordial impact basins that were filled with lava
- about 3 billion years ago. There is evidence, however, that
- volcanism has occurred in some craters that are perhaps only a
- million years old. Could the bright flashes, hazes, and colors
- reported at these sites be proof that the Moon is still active?
-
- THOUGHTS ON THE ORIGIN OF LTP'S
-
- Possible explanations for LTP's are not lacking. One of the
- earliest proposals was made by Jack Green of Douglas Advanced
- Research Laboratories in Huntington Beach, California. While
- studying the standing levels of water and oil in deep wells, he
- found that the levels varied in concert with the Moon's
- anomalistic month (27.55 days, from perigee to perigee), as if
- the strength of the Moon's tidal force affected the tiny cracks
- in the bedrock through which oil and water move. Based on this
- idea, he suggested that LTP's are degassing phenomena brought
- about by the Earth's tidal effects on the Moon. Maximum
- degassing, he believed, would occur at the Moon's most eccentric
- apogees and a minimum at the least eccentric perigees. After
- analyzing 1,200 observations, however, I could not find such a
- relationship.
-
-
- Some LTP phenomena may be caused by sunlight interacting
- with the lunar soil. On October 30, 1963, James Greenacre and
- Edward Barr observed red spots sparkling on the southwest wall of
- the crater Aristarchus, the east wall of Schroter's Valley, and a
- hill between them (S&T: December, 1963, page 316). The phenomena
- was observed visually by others and recorded spectroscopically as
- well. At the same lunar phase a month later, Greenacre and Barr
- saw a similar event. Since sunrise on these features occurs when
- the Moon is about 11 days old, Greenacre thought that the low
- lunar Sun was somehow responsible. Indeed, thermoluminesence mat
- be the cause. Gases in the lunar soil, frozen during the night,
- could heat up and escape near sunrise.
- Could high-energy solar particles impacting the Moon also
- trigger LTP activity? Shortly after a large flare erupted on the
- Sun in 1963, Zdenek Kopal and Thomas Rackham at Pic du Midi
- Observatory in southern France photographed a local brightening
- around the craters Copernicus, Kepler, and Aristarchus. Kopal
- proposed that energetic particles from the flare caused lunar
- rocks to fluorescence. Such activity might be expected especially
- at full phase when the Moon passes through the Earth's
- magnetosphere, where solar wind particles become trapped.
-
- ANALYSIS
-
- LTP sightings fall into five categories: brightenings,
- darkenings, reddish colorations, bluish colorations, and
- obscurations. When plotted against the lunar anomalistic month,
- the data show that LTP activity peaks somewhat when the Moon is
- moving from apogee to perigee, especially about halfway between
- these points when the Moon is approaching Earth the most rapidly.
- When the Moon is opposite that point in its orbit, LTP activity
- is at a deep minimum. Since tidal stressed build from lunar
- apogee to perigee, one might expect such a pattern.
- When LTP phenomena are plotted against the Moon's phases, it
- appears that the most phenomena occur around the time of full
- Moon (though LTP's have been observed throughout the lunar
- cycle). Also, more are seen near the sunrise line than the
- sunset line, though that might be simply because far more people
- observe the waxing Moon in the evening than the waning Moon after
- midnight. Gaseous phenomena and anomalistic brightenings seem to
- peak when the Moon is a waxing crescent.
-
- ARE THEY REAL?
-
- Some astronomers dismiss all LTP's as either aberrational
- effects in Earth's atmosphere, changes in lunar lighting
- conditions, or outright illusions. Such skepticism, however,
- flies in the face of those who have devoted decades to
- familiarizing themselves with the Moon, and who very well know
- these common observational effects. * LTP's are localized
- phenomena. They are regions or features that experience change
- while the rest of the Moon remains normal.
- No doubt some apparent LTP's are caused by atmospheric
- effects. One is the "ashen glow." Here, sunlight scattered by
- Earth's clouds is cast onto the Moon's night surface, resulting
- in LTP's that simply reflect changes in the level of
- illumination. Another pseudo-LTP concerns bright features
- fringed with blue (north) and red (south) seen against dark
- backgrounds. These probably are aberrational effects, namely
- atmospheric dispersion near the observer, perhaps enhanced by a
- lingering temperature inversion.
- Sightings of a starlike point on the Moon may also be
- disregarded as an LTP. This is the only transient phenomenon I
- have ever observed myself. But I suspect it is merely a
- reflection effect from flat facets on areas of large rocky
- outcrops when the Sun and observer are at just the correct
- angles. (High magnifications spread the light into an area
- instead of a point.)
- Even if we eliminate the three types of non-LTP's discussed
- here, that still leaves more than 40 percent of the reports
- unexplained.
- There is evidence that the remaining LTP's are of lunar
- origin. a substantial number of sightings were independently
- confirmed. Professional astronomers have recorded them on film
- and spectrograms, as well as with photoelectric photometers and
- polarization equipment. Experiments on the Apollo missions
- detected trace outgassings of the radioactive elements radon an
- polonium, suggesting that more substantial amounts of commoner
- substances were released at the same time. One experiment
- possibly detected water vapor during the largest moonquake on
- record (Richter 4). the epicenter of that quake was near or in
- the large, fractured crater Gauss north of Mare Crisium. To me,
- this is the one lunar feature that looks as if it had been
- covered with a thin crust of glass subsequently shattered by an
- impact.
- While in lunar orbit, Harrison Schmitt of Apollo 17
- witnessed a flash near the crater Grimaldi west of Oceanus
- Procellarum. Since he was dark adapted, it's possible he saw a
- cosmic-ray flash within his own eyeball. But it's also possible
- he saw a lunar event. In the past, Grimaldi had been responsible
- for more than a dozen reports of flashes. The crater Plato near
- Mare Imbrium is another source of flashes. Although many craters
- responsible for LTP sightings have central peaks with summit
- craters, Plato has none.
- So the Moon may not be such a cold, lifeless neighbor after
- all. It still breathes through the action of LTP's, which in my
- opinion are probably gentle outgassings of less-than-volcanic
- proportions. Whatever they are, thanks to the LTP's, the Moon
- remains a curious place.

- Association of Lunar and Planetary Observers.
-
- SOME POSSIBLE CAUSES OF LTP's
-
- --The following is a condensation of remarks by J. Hedley
- Robinson in the December, 1986, Journal of the British
- Astronomical Association.
-
- At least 11 possible causes of lunar transient phenomena
- (LTP's) have been discussed. As a stimulus to further
- discussion, it may be helpful to summarize and comment on these.
-
- 1. Tidal. There is a greater stress by the Earth when the
- Moon is at perigee than at other parts of its orbit. The tidal
- pull may release strains in the crust and permit the release of
- trapped gases. The tidal effect of Earth on the Moon is 32.5
- times greater than the effect of the Moon on the Earth.
-
- 2. Albedo changes due to dust movement. There is
- essentially no atmosphere on the Moon to raise dust, so this does
- not seem likely as an explanation.
-
- 3. Thermal shock. The lunar surface temperature varies
- from 125 degrees to -80 degrees Celsius during a two-hour period
- at both sunrise and sunset, and most LTP's occur within three
- days of local sunrise or sunset. LTP's could be related to the
- fact that dissimilar materials expand and contract at differing
- rates. Although the maria heat and cool more rapidly than other
- parts of the Moon's surface, at a depth of just 10 cm the rock
- temperature is constant. Thermal conditions may be regarded as
- incidental to LTP's rather than the main cause.
-
- 4. Magnetic. Solar plasma bombards the lunar surface, even
- when the Moon is in the Earth's magnetic tail, and the movement
- of the Moon in and out of the magnetic tail changes the field
- strength. But charged particles penetrate the lunar surface to
- only one-third the depth reached by the Sun's thermal rays. If
- thermal shock is considered to be insufficient to cause LTP
- phenomena, then the much weaker electromagnetic effect below the
- surface must also be discounted.
-
- 5. Ultraviolet radiation from the Sun might cause
- fluorescence at visible wavelengths, because there is virtually
- no atmosphere to shield the lunar surface. I doubt that the
- effect is strong enough to produce visible reactions as bright,
- or as large, as the usual LTP's.
-
- 6. Solar-wind plasma impacting the surface could produce an
- electric discharge, but I doubt that the energy involved is great
- enough to cause an effect visible from Earth.
- LTP's could, however, be caused by the explosion of
- chemically reactive molecules and free radicals in small hollows;
- and solar wind plasma may produce such reactive molecules in
- rocks. But solar-wind plasma hardly looks like a prime cause.
-
- 7. Spectral diffraction from surface grains or
- irregularities too small for telescopic resolution may cause
- color. The lunar surface presents many angels to the observer,
- and these vary with libration in both latitude and longitude as
- well as with diurnal libration. With the varying lunar surface
- slopes, many simultaneous diffraction angles should be presented.
- But if this were the cause of LTP's, the effects should show all
- over the disk from time to time, whereas they in fact show local
- preferences.
-
- 8. Meteor strikes. These have been claimed frequently.
- One of the best observed was reported by the Smithsonian
- Institution near the Apollo 14 site on May 13, 1972, when a
- meteor impact released an energy equal to that of 1,000 tons of
- TNT. But meteor strikes cover only a small area on the lunar
- surface when compared to the size of LTP's.
-
- 9. Moonquakes are often deep seated but very weak, with a
- preference for times of perigee or apogee. There seems to be no
- obvious connection between the frequency of moonquakes and
- sightings of LTP phenomena.
-
- 10. False color is a regular feature in larger telescopes
- due to terrestrial atmospheric conditions. This can be guarded
- against by comparing a suspected LTP event with the appearance of
- other formations on the lunar surface at the same time, and is
- well recognized by practiced observers.
-
- 11. The piezoelectric effect is well known on Earth, for
- example when rock strain generates a strong electric field that
- ionizes the air above the rock, causing a glow. The field moves
- with the strain source. There are Soviet reports that the
- magnetic field drops suddenly when underground tension is
- released.
-
- Conclusion. The foregoing indicates courses that our
- thinking and research might follow. I am of the opinion that
- tidal strain or thermal shock causing outgassing and producing a
- piezoelectric effect might be the most plausible explanation.

-
- The Book on MJ-12
-
- Nothing in the past few years has caused more controversy in the UFO
- field than the release of the Operation Majestic-12 Briefing Document in
- 1987. The document, dated September 18, 1952, states that on September
- 24, 1947, President Harry S Truman established a secret panel of twelve
- distinguished scientists, military [officials], and intelligence
- officials to oversee and study crashed UFOs and their occupants.
- Majestic's first case [had] occurred two months earlier, when the team
- allegedly recovered a crashed disc on July 7 near Roswell, New Mexico.
- Although the Roswell crash is well-documented in UFO literature, is what
- is described in the MJ-12 document itself an accurate portrayal of the
- recovery?
-
- For four years UFO researchers have been debating whether the MJ-12
- document is authentic and whether or not the content of the document
- represents reality.
-
- Shortly after the MJ-12 document was released, Manitoba UFO
- researcher Grant Cameron and I began looking for former scientists who
- may have had knowledge of the MJ-12 committee. We worked under the
- assumption that the document was accurate in its description of a
- special group to handle UFO recoveries for the government. If MJ-12 was
- real, someone working in the upper levels of the government would surely
- remember a committee by that name that was active in the late 1940s and
- early 1950s.
-
- Confirming MJ-12 has been difficult. All the original, designated
- MJ-12 members are dead. Although various alleged government documents
- have been uncovered alluding to the MJ-12 committee, the U.S. Government
- has not publicly acknowledged that these documents or, for that matter,
- the MJ-12 documents, are genuine.
-
- An interesting development occurred in November 1983, when UFO
- researcher William Steinman received a letter back from American
- physicist Dr. Robert I. Sarbacher regarding UFO recoveries. In the early
- 1950s, Sarbacher was working as a consultant for the military's Research
- and Development Board, the same Board that allegedly controlled
- Operation Majestic-12, according to the MJ-12 documents. In his letter
- to Steinman, Sarbacher reported that secret meetings about UFO
- recoveries were held but [that] he did not personally attend them.
- Gordon Creighton wrote in the October 1985 issue of the *Flying Saucer
- Review*, published in England, that Dr. Sarbacher stated [that] these
- meetings were held at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base in Dayton, Ohio.
- Apparently those involved in the recoveries were to report their
- findings to scientists connected with the Research & Development Board.
-
- Sarbacher wrote [to] Steinman that he did talk to some of the people at
- the office about what was learned. According to Sarbacher, U.S.
- laboratories analyzed UFO hardware from the crashes and ... the pilots
- looked like certain insects observed on earth.
-
- During a telephone interview with UFO researcher Stanton Friedman,
- Sarbacher was asked if he could recall anyone who did attend the
- meetings. Sarbacher gave enough clues to Friedman about a scientist he
- remembered being there that when Steinman cross-checked the information,
- the description fit the profile for Dr. Eric A. Walker, the former
- President of Penn State University. Steinman said [that] he called
- Sarbacher to confirm his suspicions and [that] Sarbacher allegedly
- confirmed that Dr. Eric Walker, who was then Executive Secretary of the
- Research & Development Board, attended all the UFO meetings.
-
- When Cameron and I discovered [that] Dr. Walker might be involved, we set
- out to document what he may have learned from those meetings and what the
- Canadian and American governments were doing with this new-found
- knowledge.
-
- Although our investigation started in 1987, William Steinman had been
- familiar with Walker's potential involvement since 1984. After several
- ... [unproductive] attempts to correspond with Walker by mail, Steinman
- phoned him on August 30, 1987. During the conversation, Steinman said
- that Walker indicated [that] he had known about MJ-12 since 1947 and
- that Steinman '... was delving into an area that you can do absolutely
- nothing about,' and to '... drop it."
-
- Cameron and I pursued the Walker connection for a book we were working
- on entitled *UFOs, MJ-12, and the Government* [subtitle: *A Report on
- Government Involvement in UFO Crash Retrievals*] up until 1991. Walker
- was contacted by various UFO researchers from 1987-1990, and we were
- privy to the notes of these conversations in which Walker made some very
- candid remarks about MJ-12 and UFO crashes. In a conversation in 1990,
- Walker described MJ-12 as a '... handful of elite' and [that] he would
- know if you were invited into the group.
-
- Besides the in-depth reporting on Walker, we investigated several other
- scientists who may have been involved, including Dr. Luis W. Alvarez, a
- Nobel Prize winner, who allegedly assisted in the recovery of a saucer in
- Mexico. We corresponded frequently with news commentator George Knapp of
- KLAS-TV in Las Vegas, Nevada, to get the story behind physicist Robert
- Lazar, who claims the government has at least nine flying saucers
- they're test flying and taking apart out at Nellis Air Force Base, in
- Nevada. We looked at the experiences noted UFO researchers have had in
- dealing with the government, including those of Bill Moore, Linda Howe,
- Wilbert Smith, Lee Graham and Donald Keyhoe. We also looked at putative
- government agents who appear to be involved, including Richard Doty and
- several who go by the names 'Falcon' and "Condor."
-
- We examined several UFO crashes that the government appears to have been
- involved in, including those in Roswell, New Mexico; Kecksburg,
- Pennsylvania; and the Kalahari Desert in South Africa. MUFON's State
- Director Stan Gordon opened up his files to us on the 1965 Kecksburg UFO
- crash. New evidence released in December 1990 indicated that the
- acorn-shaped object [recovered] was eventually moved to Wright-Patterson
- Air Force Base. We corresponded with Michael Hesemann in Germany and
- Henry Azadehdel in England to uncover the facts behind the alleged 1989
- incident over South Africa, where a UFO was supposedly shot down by a
- South African Air Force pilot.
-
- Finally, we explored the possibility that perhaps what might have been
- learned from UFO crashes in the late 1940s/early 1950s may have been
- instrumental in helping the U.S. Government develop certain technologies
- that are now being used on the advanced aircraft being secretly test
- flown in the 'Dreamland' area of Nellis Air Force Base. The evidence we
- have gathered seems to indicate [that] the government developed teams to
- retrieve unknown aerial objects, that they analyzed the recovered UFO
- hardware, and [that] they are now attempting to duplicate that technology
- on today's aircraft.
-
- Our book presents an interesting mix of various government documents,
- letters, telephone notes, and photographs detailing how the government is
- misleading the public about the true nature of UFOs.

- ParaNet received a clipping from Lorne Goldfader, director
- of the Vancouver-based UFO Research Institute of Canada (UFORIC).
- It details an investigation by Goldfader into an alleged
- recovered fetus that was miscarried by a British Columbian woman
- who claimed that she was impregnated during an abduction event.
- Goldfader has disclosed to ParaNet that at this time the specimen
- is in a pathology lab being tested and that results of these
- tests will be forthcoming soon. At this time, there is very
- little information to substantiate that anything unusual has
- happened. According to the victim, the pregnancy is unusual as
- she claims she is celibate. Although this is not a good case for
- an unexplained pregnancy at the hands of aliens, we have

- SEX, SURGERY AND SPACE ALIENS
-
- Extra-terrestrials seem to prefer British Columbia
-
- Reprinted from an article appearing in The Weekly Newsmagazine,
- British Columbian Report, May 27, 1991, Volume 2 Number 39.
-
- Last week researcher Chris Rutkowski, of Winnipeg revealed
- that British Columbians reported 114, or 49% of the 232 UFO
- sightings in Canada in 1990. For some the survey was
- confirmation of a long-held belief that B.C. is home to more than
- its share of those on the lunatic fringe. But for those who
- claim to have encountered beings from outer space, the survey was
- a confidence-builder. They could take comfort in the knowledge
- that more and more of their neighbours[sic] are willing to risk
- being classified as crazies[sic], by speaking of encounters with
- extra-terrestrials.
- Alvena Scott, a 41-year old Vancouver receptionist, is one
- of those finding security in numbers. Miss Scott claims she has
- been about as close as anyone can get to a space alien. Indeed
- she is one of about 20 people in the Vancouver area who say they
- have been abducted by extra-terrestrial. Apparently some of the
- aliens were nice enough to operate on her to repair a faulty
- kidney. Others, however, were only interested in her
- reproductive capacity. She says the latter group impregnated her
- during a March 1990 abduction. Three months later, despite the
- fact she had been celibate for years, she experienced a
- miscarriage.
- Miss Scott says that in the summer of 1985 she was
- experiencing excruciating pain in the area of her left kidney.
- Doctors told her the kidney would have to be removed but she
- feared surgery and would not consent to an operation. She
- explains that during this period she began nightly meditations
- and it was after one of these sessions that the first alien
- showed up in her bedroom. The next thing she knew she was in a
- circular room surrounded by seven-foot-tall, blue-eyed, human-
- like creatures. She awoke in her bed the next morning to find
- blood on her sheets and on her torso. But her kidney problem was
- gone.
- Miss Scott says that five years after her encounter with the
- beneficent, tall, blue-eyed beings she had a bad experience with
- some small, insect-featured extra-terrestrials. She claims that
- in March of 1990 she was "forcibly taken" in the middle of the
- night to a spaceship. Apart from going through a series of
- tunnels she remembers nothing of the journey to the spaceship but
- she has vivid recollections of her experiences aboard the aliens'
- craft. She was one of about 20 "earth people," of both sexes, on
- the ship. After communicating with the aliens by telepathy she
- learned the earth women would have sperm "injected into them."
- She received sperm but was not told who or what provided it.
- Three months later she had a miscarriage.
- A tissue sample from the miscarriage has allegedly been
- given Lorne Goldfader, director of the Vancouver-based UFO
- Research Institute of Canada (UFORIC). Mr. Goldfader says other
- UFO researchers have had evidence of UFOs mysteriously
- disappearing. To reduce the risk of theft he's not disclosing
- where the tissue is being stored. The 41-year-old Vancouver
- postal worker says the sample, which "appears to be the first
- stage of a foetus[sic]," will be examined by a pathologist in due
- course. However, as of last week, despite a year-long search,
- Mr. Goldfader had been unable to find a lab willing to perform
- the analysis.
- Another UFO researcher, Graham Conway from Delta, says that
- based on his knowledge of the case and the phenomenon, the sample
- tissue "does indeed look to be what he (Mr. Goldfader) claims it
- is." Mr. Conway, 64, described the material as a tiny but
- "perfectly human (-looking) foetus[sic] with a tiny umbilical
- chord[sic] attached to it." The former high school teacher says
- he has no doubts about Miss Scott's "sincerity" in the matter.
- And after 44 years in the (UFO research) field, he thinks this
- might well be the long-awaited breakthrough in abduction research.
- His experience in the field leads him to believe that
- accounts like those of Miss Scott are becoming too numerous to
- ignore. "If it's a figment of the imagination, it is happening
- to a lot of imaginations. I believe that there's inference with
- birth."
- In another case he investigated, a B.C. woman reported being
- taken aboard a spacecraft and introduced to a boy she was told
- was her son. He says most of the women who report such genetic
- tampering are in the 35-40 age group. He adds that a significant
- number of "abducted" women have been sexually abused in their
- earth lives.
- For her part Miss Scott says the alien encounters not only
- cured her kidney problems but also gave her a whole new outlook
- on life and made her "a much more spiritual person." Still, she
- confesses that there has been a negative side-effect. "My
- relatives think I'm nuts." -- Barbara Tandory

- BUSH'S SON LINKED TO NUGAN HAND BANK
-
- George Bush's eldest son, George W., is involved in a business
- deal in the Persian Gulf with one William H. Quasha, a Manila
- attorney who represented the Philippines branch of the Nugan Hand
- Bank. Nugan Hand is the notorious CIA proprietary that collapsed
- in 1980 amid charges that it was deeply involved in laundering
- drug money. In 1977, it was revealed that Nugan Hand was part of a
- network that had exported billions of dollars' worth of heroin
- from Bangkok prior to June 1976. (George Bush, senior, took over
- as head of the CIA in January 1976).
-
- According to published accounts, Quasha tried to obstruct
- investigations into Nugan Hand's illegal operations, advising Gen.
- LeRoy Manor, Nugan Hand's representative in the Philippines, to
- flee the country to avoid official investigators. Quasha and his
- son, New York attorney Alan G. Quasha, are among the principal
- owners of Harken Energy Corp., a Texas-based oil company that took
- over George W. Bush's failing oil company, Spectrum 7, in 1986.
- The younger Bush has served on Harken's board of directors since
- then. In January 1990, Harken received exclusive exploration and
- drilling rights to all of Bahrain's off-shore territories, a deal
- which Charles Strain, a Houston-based energy analyst, told Forbes
- magazine was "an incredible deal, unbelievable for this small
- company."
