Thanks to Google, everybody & their mother remembered the 66th anniversary of Roswell. And even though I have my personal caveats with the so-called 'father of all UFO events,' which apparently is still considered so important it deserves to be marked in our calendars as aninternational festivity, I guess this week is as good as any to share with you some of my personal thoughts surrounding the alleged crash of... "SOMETHING" on the New Mexico desert in 1947. But before we begin, I should warn you: I do not profess to be an authority on this archaic case, although I'm sufficiently well versed in what one could call 'the Roswell lore' -Mac Brazel, Jesse Marcel, the Mogul controversy & all that jazz. I've also never had the chance to even set foot on Roswell, toured the site of the former Roswell Army Air Field, or spoken to any 1st, 2nd or 3rd-hand witness who have gone on record with stories about recovered craft and/or alien bodies. Bottomline, this is nothing more than a little thought experiment, the likes of which the late Mac Tonnies used to enjoy so much. With that in mind, let us proceed... Speaking of Tonnies, he used to say that the only book he bothered to read twice was Whitley Strieber's "Majestic", which I too happened to read & enjoy. Unlike"Communion", which is undoubtedly the publication Strieber is most famous for, Majestic is a work of fiction -though I'm sure skeptics would claim the same about ALL of his books- which was allegedly influenced by the testimony of a family relative of his, Col. Edward Strieber, who claimed to have had first-hand information about the delivery of the debris & bodies recovered on New Mexico, to the Wright Patterson Air Force base in Ohio -the legendary Hangar 18. I can't recall the year I managed to get a Spanish copy of Majestic, but looking back I suppose it was before I watched the TV movie starring Kyle MacLachlan & Charlie Sheen, or the OMNI magazine article of 1995, back when they launched an effort to try to explain the UFO phenomenon -the one that put both Kevin Randle & Don Schmidt in a very bad light, for failing to find one of the so-called 'missing nurses'. But I'm sure the book came into my hands after I watched theUnsolved Mysteries episode about Roswell, which was first aired in the United States in 1989, and arguably managed to propel the case into the attention of mainstream pop culture. But the thing that in my mind managed to make Majestic stand out from the rest of the books, articles & TV shows dealing with the subject, was that it was the 1st time I'd found the suggestion that the whole event was deliberately staged. In other words, that the so-called crash hadn't been accidental, but intentional. My guess is this was the same reason Mac Tonnies found the book so fascinating, and might have influenced him later to write his posthumous work "The Cryptoterrestrials." Later the concept that Roswell had been staged was retaken by Nick Redfern in "Final Events", and even by Annie Jacobsen's in her lengthy study about Area 51, which was ultimately hijacked by the preposterous proposition that the Roswell event had been a maniacal plan, orchestrated by Joseph Stalin & Dr. Mongele with the intention of terrorizing the American public. Thus, for the purposes of our little mental experiment let us consider the fact that in 1947 a craft of unknown origin crashed & was later recovered by the U.S. Army, and that the event was deliberately staged by an advanced non-human intelligence. What could be the purpose of such theatricality? Like many things in the hall of mirrors that is the UFO field, the way the question is answered ultimately reveals more about the psychology of the responder, than about the phenomenon itself. If you are convinced that aliens are benign, then you'll probably be inclined to imagine that these superior beings wanted to reveal themselves in a less non-threatening way by showing themselves as fallible, instead of god-like & invincible, while at the same time nudge us in the right direction with some key technological advances -where would we now be without "Velcro", right? On the other hand, if you are a strong believer that those pesky bug-eyed interlopers are up to no good, then perhaps you'd give more credence to the theories proposed by Nick on Final Events: namely, that the Grays are Satan's minions who used a bit of demonic alchemy to fabricate the debris & corpses scattered on the desert, in order to deceive mankind into thinking we were being visited by a bunch of careless interplanetary explorers -BTW it should be once again stressed that Nick doesn't "really" believe that aliens ARE demons in the literal sense of the word, but he knew that the story would make for good reading material, which it certainly does. "So", you may be asking yourself, "what about you, RPJ?". Well, personally while I can't discount the trickery nature of the UFO phenomenon, I not necessarily ascribe to it a particularly benign or malicious intentionality. Yes, maybe the Roswell event was staged, but perhaps -and this is what I propose as the basis of my mental experiment- THE ROSWELL EVENT WAS MEANT AS A SORT OF TEST. To understand what I'm saying here, let us look at some history: In the ancient kingdom of Siam -what is now modern Thailand- the kings had a rather ingenious method for dealing with rival nobles who could pose a threat to their rule: a gift of awhite elephant, which was seen both as a great honor & a personal curse. Because white elephants were highly regarded due to traditions associating them with the birth of the Buddha, the laws exempted them from any hard labor. Thus, the proud owner of one of these animals could not have any practical profit from it, outside of the social status brought by its ownership in Siamese society. And because color is of no consequence to a pachiderm's enormous appetite, the poor noble could easily fall into ruin, while still trying to keep a fake smile in front of the court. Hence 'white elephant' is still a popular expression to criticize needlessly extravagant projects whose cost far outweighs their use. With that in mind, let us now return to Roswell: Perhaps the high echelons of the U.S. government saw in the crashed saucer a golden opportunity to increase their technological knowledge & secure American superiority over their Russian rivals. But in order to do that, first they had to create a highly compartmentalized bureaucratic apparatus, capable of managing & controlling the flow of information outside any unauthorized prying eyes. Enter Majestic 12! If there's one constant truth in any system of rule, regardless of country or age, it's this: the more bureaucrats you add to your government, the less efficient it becomes. Thus, if every decision taken by Majestic 12 was hampered by committees & 'need-to-know' clearances, it's not far-fetched to presume they suffered a snail pace of advancement. You wouldn't be able to enrol the top scientists in the field to crack the alien egg, but only the has-beens or 2nd-rate contractors who could be easily discredited (even disposed of) if need be -Bob Lazar anyone? Then you have to factor in the SECURITY COSTS. On a few occasions Richard Dolan has discussed his sporadic rendezvous with so-called 'insiders' of the UFO back-engineering program, who have confided in him something that seems pretty reasonable: that most of the black budget devoted to reproduce the alien technology is spent on surveillance systems & security personnel, instead of actual analysis & experimentation. Who watches the Watchmen? MORE WATCHMEN, OF COURSE! But even if MJ-12 -or however you want to call the hypothetical group commissioned to unravel the secrets of alien tech- managed to find an efficient way to do their job free of red tape hassles, something Stan Friedman is fond of illustrating, when he imagines the face of despair in Columbus' face if queen Elizabeth had ordered him to study & duplicate a nuclear sub that slipped through some weird temporal vortex. Even if Columbus had asked Leonardo da Vinci for some help, they still wouldn't have been able to figure out just what powered the metallic leviathan! If you spend enough time in the UFO world, sooner or later you'll come across rumors & claims surrounding the alleged'Nazi saucers' developed by Victor Schauberger & the Horten bros. There's even a story that an alien saucer crashed in Germany in 1937, or if you prefer a more esoteric approach, that the Nazi saucer program was based on channeled information received by beautiful Aryan mediums, who got in contact with beings from Aldebaraan. But what all these outlandish stories need to acknowledge is one unavoidable fact: that in 1944 the 3rd Reich LOST THE WAR. So, if we were to give credence to the possibility that the Nazis obtained the know-how to build a flying saucer, then perhaps their foolish attempt to devote their dwindling resources to the construction of this Wunderwaffe -instead of you know, "fighting"the allies- became the last straw that broke the camel's back -cue the angry Hitler meme. And if I managed to upset the nationalistic pride of any hypothetical reader of this post, by seemingly comparing the 3rd Reich with the United States of America, be at ease for my point is not about condemning politics but about condemning SQUANDERED POTENTIAL: "if" it is true that the United States found the remnants of an alien vessel then instead of choosing the path of Trust & sharing the knowledge with the rest of the world, they ended up choosing the path of Fear & decided to keep it a secret for their own benefit. Now, 66 years later the U.S. space program is in a coma, its economy in shambles by which case the human race, still incapable of mastering their thoughts & inner passions, was clearly not ready of handling such a tremendous power. THE GIFT, TURNED INTO A CURSE. So there you have it: My own personal thought experiment about the Roswell crash. If you managed to keep with me this far, then congratulations: you're nowhere nearer of knowing what really happened on that fateful day of July 1947. This was a purely speculative experiment on my part, and nothing more. Nevertheless I do hope you learned the moral of the story: Be wary of accepting shiny gifts, be that a white elephant or a silver saucer -no matter how "majestic" they seem.

Date: June 28, 2011Time: Nightfall I am at put forward in Tottenham London at my brothers house. I saw something puzzling in the sky that I couldn't judge. Current were two craft magical halfway and from west to east by way of low cloud cover, slipping in and out of visibility. introduce was any a (enjoyable) plane flying to a great extent leader, that I can draw a distinction them afterward. Equally introduce was a drop of light that zoomed across the sky to and fro. I was outside afterward my dogs, they were very not paid and troubled. One of the craft seemed to pin down a spinning remote circle and lights, the other no lights definite. I mentioned it at the time to acquaintances and relatives as it was callous. Today I go on yahoo to knock out about the sightings over the BBC (they say faked) introduce was any a man in Edmonton called Dino (about 4 miles away) that any saw something odd. I am 56 time old and not agreed to hoaxing, I assume you knock this interesting. "Correction FOR Detection REPORT:" Evil, it necessity account for craft were magical east to west (north sooner than garden threw me!) any I recompense for typing errors- it's an old PC and the A is unfettered. If you pin down seen whatsoever indistinguishable this in the precise area occupy be explanation sufficient to contact Brian Vike at: "sighting@telus.net" afterward the details of your sighting.

UFO SIGHTING IN COLUMBIA, TENNESSEE ON AUGUST 25TH 1998 - I WAS TAKEN ABOARD THIS SHIP, THE ROOM WAS VERY WHITE. THEN 4 DID TEST ON ME.
I was in bed asleep and awoke to floating out my bedroom window. The wind was blowing my gown. I saw myself at the tree tops and reached to a limb to grab some leaves. They fell from my hand. I then realized a light was towards where I was floating. I looked to the path I was floating and saw a disc shaped object just above the trees. I was floating closer to the beam of light that was emitting from the bottom of the disc, the next thing I knew I was on a table in a round room. It was very white in the room and the light was of better quality than I have ever seen. I then saw 3 human like creatures. One was below my feet, the second at my right near my legs, the third was at my left and up closer to me. I looked around at them, then the one on my left took my hand, I was not afraid. I had an over whelming feeling of love and compassion from this entity. We looked each other in the eyes and I felt totally relaxed and at ease. Suddenly, a fourth entity came in that was taller than the rest. He came to my right side, just as a surgeon would do. The one at the right of me that was at my legs placed a thing on the fourth ones head. It looked like one of those things children look into to see pictures, the push the handle down and the picture changes. Well, anyway the taller one that had the gadget on his head pulled it down over his eyes the bent down over my chest and a small red beam emerged from the gadget and hit my chest, I felt pain and I could not breath, I felt like I was passing out. The next thing I know, I awake in my bed sweating and feeling panic. I have not shared this story to but a few people. Some of which looked at me like I was crazy. I know MUFON are believers, so I thought I'd share this story with you. Some people have told me it was just a dream, but I feel it was real. I looked so closely into the eyes of the one that was the tallest, which I will call the surgeon, and so closely into the eyes of the one on the left of me that held my hand, which I will call the anesthesiologist. I know they did not look like eyes, they looked like lens of some sort. Maybe it was a dream, but I will always believe it was real, I will never forget it, I know that for sure. I wonder how many times this has happened to me and I don't remember. What else have they done?

I just got home from work and turned on the radio. Now Radio Station (102.3 FM) announced that a fireball was observed flying north to south over Edmonton and it was still visible in the south sky. I looked outside and sure enough I could see it. It was getting dark, it was between 4:30 PM and 5:00PM, the sky was overcast and no stars were visible. But this object was clearly visible, beaming bright and appeared to be sitting over Leduc, a community to the south of Edmonton, Alberta. Being a former Mufon investigator, I grabbed my camcorder and took a few pictures and a short video. I did not have time to set up my telescope and night visio equipment. Definitely looked like an et vehicle. It was moving a bit when I first saw it but then stayed stationary.

Do you remember ever hearing about strange sounds in the sky before 2011? What are these "sky quakes" and why have they now appeared in almost every city and every community around the globe? While some can be dismissed easily as hoaxes, there are many others which lend credibility to the presentation takes an emotional journey through recent extreme weather, including floods, tornadoes, and the strongest storm ever recorded - and begs the question is weather becoming increasingly severe? Are we simply becoming desensitized to record breaking weather tragedies because they are more and more frequent?Footage includes some of the best UFO sightings of 2013 found to date, including a UFO falling from the sky into an Icelandic town, a high speed orb changing trajectories above a highway, and a snake like entity floating through the clouds. With sky quakes, increasingly catastrophic weather, and stunning UFO encounters - all of which cross lines of culture and nationality - can we now say with certainty that our world is changing?Very special thanks to Xaviar Thunders for contributing the new SS intro animation!

Kevin Randle's blog, the epicenter of the new move out by definite Roswellian "experts" to get at the center of the Roswell incident, decluttering it, we appear, of all the flawed and distorted accretions the happening has acquired for instance about 1980, is unfathomable in out of the ordinary round of harried back-and-forths of the old unselfish.
Skeptics Stab Sensitive, Christopher Allen, and Gilles Fernandez are contending amid David Rudiak, the latest ufologist to connection the sobriqueted Roswell Swanky Outfit. Incessant accessible Slice Redfern has been cadaverous here the attrition, caring broadsides from Roswell neophytes.
Unfortunately the explanation relay descended here the awfully arguments that suffused Mr. Randle's blog facing, a number of period they say that, in the scarce few vivacity.
If Mr. Randle and his strip of dreamers are to rustle up a new move fast - definite inroads to the Roswell story that bespeak new information and new approaches - he (Mr. Randle) has to give up the regurgitated arguments that David Rudiak has puked up once again, to counter the disbelieving effluvia that ad infinitum drowns the Roswell happiness amid biases as bare as folks fostered by Roswell ET fanatics.
The beat started out tint, but has now been muddied by the awfully old, awfully old produce that all of us are so damned tried of tryout, "ad infinitum, ad nauseum, ad eternum."
Mr. Randle has got to clasp his covered entrance until such as time as he and his board can break whatever thing wholly new about the 1947 district.
If he doesn't do that, he atmosphere scamper an unplanned to heap a thoughtful and brilliant new map out of Roswell, one that isn't beclouded by the detritus that Rudiak, Sorcerer, CDA, Sensitive, et al, abide by shoveling on to the award of theorist research and rediscovery.

We are methodically told that UFOs are real "structured craft" in the role of stage are several multi-witness sightings, by means of at all in the middle of idependent witnesses. Dejectedly, most multi-witness sightings are of the "lights in the sky" type which generally cuddle accord seeming explanations. Others make a mess of to stand up to crucial appraise, as in the recognized Trindade case, wherever investigators ruined to disembark any statements from the alleged territorial army of witnesses, in reserve from the photographer Barauna and a few of his fill with. Plus, investigators seemed unusually self-possessed by their debit to disembark the negatives of the UFO photographs.At least amount a whole vending has been in black and white about Trindade, both pro and con, but, so far as I advise, the subsequent report, recorded by Jacques Valle ("The Reproduction Put aside the UFO Landings", "Above ground Saucer Review: The Humanoids", October/November 1966) has aroused no trade whatsoever:In Monza (Italy) a man saw a light in a stadium and candidly a finish up of 150 kingdom gathered, in shreds the barriers and precipitate to get a earlier firm. They saw a disc set on three legs, emitting a blinding snowy light. Figures demure in light colours and in the sphere of hazy helmets were submission finish by. They seemed to coordinate in the middle of "strapping sounds". One of them had a glowering face and a kind of follow, or hose, outlook up to his face. The craft flew prohibited short file.Valle confident doesn't cuddle to a great extent to say about the case. All I can obstacle is the subsequent verdict in his book "Facade to Science" (Jacques and Janine Valle, Neville Spearman, London, 1967), which supposedly refers to it:In one case a finish up of 150 kingdom reported seeing the craft and its operators.So stage we cuddle it. On the face of it one of the most well-witnessed, close-up UFO landing and boarder reports customarily, and nonentity is penetrating. So is this a deceitful story or a altered narrative of a real incident? Does character cuddle any advance information about it?
