Hmmm... The burns unit of reality... Wonder what else we'll see in there other than 'badly burned' skeptics...
Ah, the Belgian patient. The irrefutable proof of ETI. Yet, as of last year, SOBEPS (Belgiums leading UFO research org involved in the investigations of those individual cases) officially went into dissolution (forming COBEPS in the process). Amongst the reasons given for this was a lack of conclusive evidence to prove the 'what and why' of UFO; as well as " [fighting] with various "believers soucoupistes" for whom the slightest point in the sky announced landed extraterrestrials". In other words those who intentionally piece the puzzle together to exclude anything but ET and his spaceship make it difficult to objectively research UAS...

Who else is in here? Why it's that unfortunate balloon pilot. Of course he's an isolated incident where one individual claims that it was he who showed those who bought the balloon story for Roswell the error of their ways (let's just ignore the fact that this 'missing' balloon flight was argued against in 'The Roswell Incident' which was published in 1980... 16 years before someone calling himself A****M******* was posting comments on the Skeptics Dictionary). Of course it was rather interesting to see Stan Friedman level exactly the same criticisms of Nick Redfern's Fugu balloons that he himself had leveled at him for the Majestic documents...

And then we have the Northerner. His burns have left him with a strange form of blindness where he is almost incapable of percieving anything 'below' the equator (though he can occasionally make out South America). Unfortunately his blindness tends to lead him to the conclusion that all the world's governments and militaries (Air Forces in particular) tow the US line and are holding back information from the public. Tends to act very surprised and skeptical when told that in the Southern hemisphere the RAAF made all its UAS reports publicly available in the late 70s/early 80s and from 83 onwards decided that private UFO research groups were more than capable of investigating UAS.

Finally we have the hidiously disfigured Disclosee. On the basis of a few 'revelations' about a handful of 'good' cases, we're expected to hold the movement as beyond reproach for its overall credibility, dispite the fact that they've allowed themselves to become infected with, and consequently become, a mechanism of disinformation...

Yes the burns unit of reality is a horrible place indeed...

It has gotten to the point that the burn unit had to install a revolviing door and then, began issuing frequent visit tickets them as well.

Ah yes, even a 'non-expert could figure that the Belgian UFO wasn't a conventional aircraft, which means that it doesn't take a rocket scientist to determine that the Belgian UFO wasn't ours. Once again, invoking the 'process of elimination' and common sense logic. I might add that I also disagreed with the European UFOlogist when they suggested that a F-117 was the Belgian UFO. Common sense logic should have told them that the F-117 cannot fly at supersonic speeds nor hover siliently much less, as large as a B-747 nor capable of right-angled maneuvers beyond 40 Gs.

Perhaps, the U. S. Air Force was adding a bonus for them in their undisclosed bank accounts.

Yes indeed, nothing better than to sightseeing in a balloooooon during a thunderstorm at night near Roswell, New Mexico!

Let's just forget that any balloon of any type was responsible for the Roswell incident.

That determination was proven last summer during a recreation with a 1/2 model of a Mogul balloon and the facts were conclusive that it would have been impossible for a balloon to have been responsible for the debris field. And, there are no records for any Mogul balloon flight #4, which means that no such flight occurred and, Congressman Steven Schiff also noted that no balloon was involved in the Roswell incident. Simply facts that some folks are unable to deceipher in order to form an image of the overall picture.

And, that is who I am!! In fact, I used my name at the old CNN message board as well. In regards to the Skeptic's Dictionary, it is very clear that website ain't got its act together since it is still claiming that a Project Mogul balloon flight #4 was responsible. Ask the folks there what is their source of that information. If they say the Air Force, then it's case-closed on my assertion that the website is out of touch with reality as Tim Printy was in regards to the Roswell incident and Kirtland AFB, and 'Access-Denied' was on the Roswell incident and the Air Force's C-54.

LOL!!!! :

Many of those UFO case files that were revealed at the Disclosure Project have already been verified and documented and look what you posted!!! In fact, the San Francisco Chronicle covered the UFO incident that interfered with the control system of a DC-10, and the captain of that flight was also a participant of the Disclosure Project, and the SAC missile interruptions were investigated by my base, and the JAL incident made worldwide news and the list goes on and on, and look what you posted!! laugh.gif laugh.gif laugh.gif

Just take a number and the folks at the burn unit will attend to you shortly, and as you wait, examine the records of NYU in detail on Project Mogul and see for yourself that there were no such thing as Project Mogul balloon flight #4.

If you are going to do your homework at all, make sure you do it properly and not substitute your physics book for that of "Fun with Dick and Jane" in your science course.

It is important to note here that in 1947 there were two distinct types of Rawin devices in use- the Rawin target (ML-306) and the Rawin sonde (AN/AMT-4). As Newton, and certainly any other competent weather officer of the time, would have known, only one of these, the Rawin target incorporated metallic foil into its design...

LINK 2 April 1996
After reviewing the UFO section, I have to say, those who don't believe in UFO's, don't know reality. I work for the Air Force as a civilian and have seen tapes of a foreign F-16, locking and tracking an object and observing the object's speed, heading and altitude changes that was defying the known laws of physics, and verified by eyewitness and ground-based radar at the time.

reply: I don't doubt that pilots have tried to track down meteors, disintegrating satellites, lights from various sources, reflections on their windows, and other phantoms, and that they have claimed that what they saw "defied the known laws of physics." These testimonials hardly count as scientific evidence that anything really "defied the known laws of physics." They count only as pilots seeing things they could not identify and which baffled the hell out them.

The Air Force has lost men and equipment chasing after these unknown objects because they were over-stressing their aircraft trying to keep up with what they were tracking.

reply: I don't doubt that. But my conclusion would be more along the lines of wasting taxpayer dollars on phantom chases than on evidence we've been contacted by aliens.

I know that most sightings are honest misidentifications. In fact, one of our KC-10 tanker aircraft was doing touch and go landings at a local airport in Northern California--Redding-- last January and was mistaken for a UFO. At night, with all of its specialized lights on, it looks like a "Flying Christmas Tree." It was very easy to view it as a UFO, however, you can't dismissed the lockups and tracking on APG-63 and APG-70 radars of military aircraft on objects that are being observed by others in a different location. I am sure that many of the sightings in Southern California, was the result of military aircraft and to what many believe is, "Aurora." I can't comment on Aurora, but I want to let you know that there are objects out there and they don't belong to us.

reply: That's true. Some of it belongs to Nature. Some of the junk that's been sent to space and which occasionally falls back to earth, ricocheting off the atmosphere and being illuminated as it burns up, has been put there by the Russians, the French, the Indians, etc. Just because the junk doesn't belong to us doesn't mean it belongs to aliens from another galaxy.

The Government already knows that but feels that its citizens are not ready. It is probably due to the fact of what happened when "War of the Worlds" was broadcasted over the airwaves. Remember the widespread panic? Anyway, I thought you would like to know that about UFO's.

reply: How can you trust your government to be so caring? Your government would as soon send you to hell as protect you from aliens. You would know this if you were not a civilian working for the Air Force, but were a member of the military.

I can't comment on what is flying over the skies of the world for security reasons, but I can say this, there are objects flying that would boogle your mind. Some of these operate on a propulsion systems unknown to you but I will give you a hint about one of them that is not classified by nickname only. Nicknamed: 'Pulser.' That's all I can say about it.
--Aubrey Matthews

reply: That there are objects flying that would "boogle" my mind does not surprise me; nor does the fact there are propulsion systems unknown to me. But if anyone ever asks me about Pulser, I'll refer them to you.

True... It does go both ways. Unfortunately it's also quite counterproductive to a healthy debate...
Hence why, I like the statement from SOBEPS and the report on the light at Wewak, since they both show what an open minded approach toward the investigation of UAS.
The report written up on Wewak presents both conclusions that could be arrived at, treats the doctor's conclusion as having equal validity to the 'official' conclusion. In fact, it looks very much like the typical UAS report you might see prior to it being adulterated by either camp, as they try to make it fit their worldview.
From SOBEPS we see that after 36 years of investigation, they still had nothing that could conclusively prove anything about the nature of UFOs. We also see that they, as an organisation, were finding that hardnosed believers were counterproductive to achieving legitimate, objective and credible research into the phenomena (let's call a spade a spade here. The only difference between fanatical skeptic/debunkers and fanatical believers is which side of the diametrically opposed belief system they suscribe to; ergo, they are all hardnosed believers).
It doesn't mean that they gave up, nor that UFOs aren't real.

It just shows that they are a good example for other researchers to follow, in that they can accept that, at this point in time, they can't offer any insight into the exact nature of what UFOs/Flying Saucers/UAS are... But they will keep researching it (COBEPS).

Personally I think I'm not alone in saying that the more moderate of us (on either side) would not be overly upset if the fanatics, on both ends of the scale, would go and have their pissing contests somewhere else.

(generic use of 'your', you... etc, not singling out anyone)
After all when it comes down to quoting people out of context, deliberately overlooking evidence that doesn't support your argument (eg. possibly organic looking 'jellyfish' UFOs or multiple witnesses) and outrightly ridiculing/belittling anyone who doesn't conform to your narrow worldview, essentially you shape the debate to become a pissing contest to see who can get the last word in before the thread is locked.

So Kaufman falsified a service document to substantiate his claims... You'd think someone with his 'experience' would have known better than to commit that type of criminal offence.
But then again, Haut apparently had a habit of demanding payment for his story (in addition to keeping company with a rather dubious source also). I see a pattern forming here that involves 'Military Typesl', though I wouldn't go so far as to say they are/were acting in any official conspiracy...

Hazzard,

Sometimes you really amuse me!!

You tend to use the wrong references as a means for support. Popular Mechanics is implying that a weather balloon rawin device was responsible for the Roswell incident when that facts have already shown that there were no weather balloon rawin device responsible for the Roswell incident.

In fact, affidavits from those involved were saying that the rawin device they posed with was place there as a means of a cover-up and was not recovered from the Foster ranch, and, an official document has shown that it was suggested to use a weather balloon rawin device to cover-up what was actually found.

Since Mac Brazel recovered weather balloons before, but stated for the record that what he found on the ranch was not a weather balloon, which is an indication that Popular Mechanics didn't do their homework, otherwise, they would have found that no weather balloon was responsible, which is what the Air Force had said back in 1994.

So here is where even Popular Mechanics missed the boat because they didn't do their homework properly either, otherwise, they would have found that no balloon of any type was responsible for the Roswell incident.

For the believers Roswell is the Big Bang. They never trust the Government or the military, unless they agree with their beliefs.... the first explanation from the military, is the "best" explanation.

"RAAF CAPTURES FLYING SAUCER ON RANCH IN ROSWELL REIGON"


To me, Roswell is a classic example of retrospective falsification. An extraordinary story is told, Jesse Marcel, the Army Major who, in 1947 may have been responsible for a press release that claimed the military had possession of parts of a flying disk, then retold over the years with embellishments and remodeled with favorable points emphasized while unfavorable ones are dropped.

UFO buffs trust Berlitz and others with fantastic stories based on 30 years old memories.

Roswell is like beating a dead horse. For me, Roswell offers no answer. Sure the government lies and covers up stuff. However, this alone does not serve to support, or refute, any argument for the existence of alien visitation.

If you're able to get a copy of 'The Roswell Incident', compare it with 'Crash at Corona'. If you haven't already done so, you may be surprised at how much info 'Crash' leaves out, despite Stan's 'involvement' with both books (perhaps he 'misplaced' his original notes)...
And that was in the short space of 14years. It lends plausibility to the argument for revisionist history.
For me the 'holes' in the Roswell myth are-
1) Both Jesse Marcels (Sr & Jr) state that, in their opinion, what was found by Mac Brazel was not a threat to national security (Crash at Corona). Sr was an Intelligence officer, so if he says no threat, why do believers insist on screaming "Cover Up"?
2) The base logs don't reflect the heightened activity that the 'cover up' story would have us believe was occuring in that week.
3)Kaufman and Haut have been shown to be out and out liars. And for decades these two (Haut in particular) were considered to be two of the best witnesses to Roswell. Though little mention is ever made (in CT circles) of Haut's affiliation with the Roswell UFO museum, how much of a financial stake his family has in the Roswell myth, or the fact that he personally vouched for Dennis and Kaufman.
Yeah, I know, sounds like attacking the credibility of the witness, but unfortunatly it makes me wonder if there was a triangle of deciet there...
4) The myth that Col. McCoy, due to compartmentalization, could not have known about what crashed at Roswell. A few problems here. Firstly McCoy was yet another intelligence officer and secondly, he had previously been involved in UFO recovery Link
To make that fit with the CT, you need to suspend all belief and assume that intelligence is gathered in a way that doesn't involve asking questions and investigating rumours.
5) Whilst not a hole in the myth, the fact that more serious researchers have moved well away from the Roswell story, IMO is one of the better indicators that (no matter what it was that crashed there) Roswell offers no insight to the overall nature of UAS.

But this isn't a thread about Roswell (which, if you consider point 5, isn't the best evidence for ETI on Earth).

However this one is Link
(from page 21 onwards there's some documentation that shows the terms Flying Disk/Saucer were used as subject headers for reports concerning Operation Paperclip and the 'hunt for the Horton brothers')

Interesting take on the ETH/Nature of UAS
QUOTE
While humanoid aliens engaged in a scientific study of our planet might very well inadvertently reveal themselves from time to time, UFO researchers must grapple with the peculiarly theatric flavor that accompanies so many credible sightings. It seems that whatever we're witnessing is intentionally tricking us, adopting prudent disguises that fit the reigning zeitgeist.

Vallee--and other researchers of an esoteric bent--suspect we're the recipients of a social engineering campaign that has little or nothing to do with flesh-and-blood visitors.

If he's right, we might be on the cusp of a new way of addressing ET contact that enlivens the UFO debate and casts new light on our own future.

QUOTE
The point is that just because UFOs might behave in ways that we cannot understand is no reason for concluding that they are too weird to be extraterestrials on the grounds that an extraterrestrial would never behave in such a weird manner. The truth is that we have no idea how an extraterrestrial would behave, or what their motives would be for coming here. This works both ways - they might not be able to understand us, in the same way as we don't fully understand what's going in with various animals when they do certain things. In fact, I would argue that any alien life is likely to be so different from us that we should expect that it will behave in a manner that is completely... well, alien to us.

Does this mean that UFOs might not be extradimensional beings, or cryptoterrestrials? Of course not. But when one tries to determine which of these explanations seems more likely, one should always be careful of basing their conclusions, whether in whole or in part, on the anthropomorphic assumption that because UFOs sometimes behave in ways that seem "weird" to us, it is less likely that they are extraterrestrial beings that cryptos or extradimensional beings.

Homework? Read up on Jaques Vallee.

Vallee: I think Americans, if they are interested in the subject, are very literal. They want to kick the tires, which is a good American thing to do. They want to do reverse engineering on the propulsion system. And when I tell them, "Look, maybe those things don't have a propulsion system," you get a strange reaction. Just like, if you remember, in Close Encounters, the Truffaut character keeps going around saying this is a sociological phenomenon, not just physical. And he has a lot of trouble getting that idea acrossLink

The Air Force stated in 1994, that a Project Mogul balloon flight #4 was responsible for the Roswell incident, and that remains the official line today.

Ironically, it was the Air Force that supplied me with the information that no such flight occurred, hence my assertion that the Air Force has an explanation book for the public and another book that reflects reality that is kept hidden from the public.

"RAAF CAPTURES FLYING SAUCER ON RANCH IN ROSWELL REIGON"

To me, Roswell is a classic example of retrospective falsification. An extraordinary story is told, Jesse Marcel, the Army Major who, in 1947 may have been responsible for a press release that claimed the military had possession of parts of a flying disk, then retold over the years with embellishments and remodeled with favorable points emphasized while unfavorable ones are dropped.


Once again, you are confusing the facrts. Jesse Marcel was not responsible for the press release, and only Colonel William Blanchard had the authority to order the release of the sensational story and as commander, he would not allowed the released of such a story unless he was absolutely sure of what he examined in his office. A very important clue that the Roswell incident had nothing to do with any project of the military nor was it a balloon of any kind.

Actually, they do if you understood the nature of the data evidence as I do, which helps me to determine from the reponses of the skeptics, that they don't.

Let's take a short step back into history. The skeptics laughed at my evidence that no weather balloon was reponsible for the Roswell incident, but that was before the Air Force announced that no weather balloon was involved after all. Guess who got the last laugh?!

* The skeptics then laughed at my evidence that no Project Mogul balloon flight #4 existed. Then, official documentation from NYU, has shown that NO such flight ever occurred.

* The skeptics then laughed at my evidence that the Air Force's C-54 has operated out of Kirtland AFB, NM, because they thought the runway was too short, and that in regards to the claim of an Air Force Roswell witness in order to debunk his claim, and the skeptics laughed until I supplied the skeptics with historical facts that components of the first atomic bombs were flown out of Kirtland AFB on Air Force C-54s. laugh.gif

* Then, the skeptics laughed at my evidence that no lighthouse was responsible for the Rendlesham UFO incidents even though the lighthouse can't be seen from the gate of interest due to the forest and a backshield between the lighting unit and the base. original.gif

Then the skeptics claimed that a security policeman had hoaxed the incidents. Never mind about the UFOs in the sky that were seen by military personnel and off-base civilians, but than didn't bother the skeptics until the security policeman admitted that he wasn't responsible after all. w00t.gif

* The skeptics laughed at my evidence that temperature inversion was not responsible for the 1952 Washington D.C. UFO incidents, that is, until I posted facts from meteorologist, and accounts from those who were directly involved, and even an Air Force 1969 study that stated that it was impossible for temperature inversion to have been responsible for such incidents. w00t.gif

And, the list goes on and on because some skeptics don't bother to do their homework because they want to be armchair debunkers. yes.gif

QUOTE

Looking at what is in my head, is how I determine that the skeptics are on the wrong side of the fence. It is called: KNOWLEDGE!! Consistently, they have been proven wrong time as I have brought it to their attention after the facts were revealed officially.

That is why I tend to get the last laugh with the skeptics when the facts are eventally revealed officially, as has been the case in the past, because reality is not found in their books.

So looking at the track records of those co-called "armchair skeptics," is it any wonder why they are still behind the 'starting line of reality??'

Talk about a cover-up! The CIA and the National Security Agency have documents in their possession that they will not release under any circumstances.
When they were taken to court, the judge initially was going to order the doucuments released but when the CIA took him to his chambers, he changed his stance and refused to order the release of the documents.

Skyeagle isnt a "dumb guy". He saw a UFO/Alien starship long ago and was absolutely convinced. Maybe we would be too if we were there, I dont know.

But simply wanting something strong enough doesnt make it true. It doesnt matter if the whole world believe in God, if hes not real.

I think hes been forced to realize that as well...but I dont think it will stop him. He has to much time invested in this.

He dont even realize, and probably never will, that one cannot create an extraordinary conclusion before providing and analyzing extraordinary evidence. As those unemotionally involved and somewhat rationally educated realize, we actually have not one bit of REAL evidence of alien life or presence on this planet. Or anywere else for that matter.

Skyeagle is not alone in his strong wish for this to be true. Far from it.

The scary part to me is...Do some of these fanatic believers shove this "fact" down their kids throats!!?



But then again, religious parents have been doing that for years.

Hazzard,

Skyeagles only problem IMO is the conclusion that it is 'Aliens' that explain the UFO Phenomena. Otherwise Skyeagle is almost always right on point when it comes to the UFO Phenomena. He's done his homework.

If only Sky would tone down the 'conclusion' that 'Aliens' explain the UFO Phenomena and simply present the evidence for the UFO Phenomena then you wouldn't be able to agrue against Skyeagle at all IMO! If that happened it would force you to present an explaination of your own Hazzard! wink2.gif

Im not sure lost_shaman, but this might be the first time that you and I agree. I have said this over and over ... could alien visitation be real..?

Yes, it could be, so could certain psychic abilities, as in ghosts, EVP and probably various other ideas that skyeagle believes in as well. But, until we have some type of irrefutable evidence that these speculations are reality...they remain speculations.

Should we look seriously at some of these ideas, especially UFOs?

Well, I sure as heck think that we should, but we must also keep in mind that people can, and do, speak from a position of belief, yes, even in 2008.

I didnt dismiss the UFO= ETH without a second thought.

I simply find it inconsequential based upon actually listening to what the believers and their sensationalistic claims promisses... that the Skys, Ikes, Hoaglands, Greers, and the others out there, (MOST OF THEM SELLING SOMETHING (?)), have put on the table, and realized that the proof of extraterrestrial life never materialized...

In 1992, the same thing happened once more, except it went straight to the ground and didnt fly at all - people just started seeing stuff like that once more.

I have a book named Hoaxes that talks about alien visitation and other strange UFO sightings. The quote as follows is a statement about UFO phenomenon.

[quote]Most hoaxes are such as the Patterson film, which was never proved a fake, but most people say it is extremely fake. In the summer of 1992, Edward Graham of Virgina woke up to his farm land, to notice the entire thing was embedded in a strange and odd marking symbol. However, his house is right in the middle of his corn field. "Half the time, it is 15-30 minutes until I leave the house, because I have to find my way out of corn field. We were going to make a path, but it turns out, we're not going to waste our time doing such, because most of the time, you can get out quickly, because my daughter has done it herself." We interviewed Edward and asked him, "You daughter can pull these corn stalks, does it make a loud noise when she does so?" "Extremely loud, I can hear it in the morning, it wakes me right up. Just like the smell of her perfume." "Perhaps, maybe my wife does the same thing. (Both laughs) How come you couldn't hear the incident occur meanwhile while it was taking place?" "I had went to a bar earlier that night. My undrunk friends drove me home, it was about 4 AM, and the crop incident had probally already taken place, or I would have heard it. The entire thing took place behind my house."

The next morning, Edward set up cameras, as well as tape recorders, with 12 hour long tapes inside them. What he discovered was shocking. The next morning, when Edward went to check the tapes, he saw something that would change the way he looked at extra-terrestrial life. He saw something bright in the sky, very bright. For atleast 3 minutes, the entire thing was brightened up. Then, it went away, and that was it. Showing it to Discovery Home (digital cable) which was nearby his house, they watched the tape. What happened was the bright lights. When Edward went outside, there was a totally new symbol, and it would have looked like a blob if the previous symbol had been there, but it was gone. For 3 minutes, no human can redo crops that fast, and even do something like fast.
