How Much Cooperation Do I Get On The Archives?

 



The author at RAF Manston c 1977

I was asked by someone how much cooperation I was getting on the archives. Well, that is quite a simple question to answer.

None

I have been investigating and studying CE3Ks and Alien Entity reports since 1974 and at that time these cases were frowned up, ridiculed or simply ignored with reports being destroyed. From 1974 until the year I simply could no longer give a damn in (1984) I was also subject to insults such as "he's a UFOnut", "believing that stuff you must be stupid" and sometimes worse. 

Even when I gave talks on the subject the dopy grins were still there - though percipients in encounters approached me later so that was a plus! I met and talked with alleged contactees such as Ernie Sears as well as people who believed that they were subjects of long term alien abductions. I examined first hand reddened skin on just one side of the percipients body as well as getting to know them which is really essential if you want to evaluate their claims. 

I was even pushed forward by a group of police officers in one incident when 'aliens' were observed in an allotment at 0300hrs. "We'll deal with the burglars but this is your job, Quatermass!" was the response when I asked whether anyone  was coming with me. "Quatermass" was a nick name that some bright spark in the police gave me and it stuck (if you know who Professor Bernard Quatermass is you'll see the joke). 

But in UFO circles in the UK it was all considered "nutty stuff" though there were some who were interested such as the late Norman Oliver and even Lionel Beer was willing to offer encouragement to pursue the matter. You either accepted fake contactees such as George Adamski and got accepted or looked at cases such as the Hills, Walton etc and that made you a tad stupid because Adamski had told everyone just who the space brothers were and where they were from.

There was also the rather distasteful side of Ufology where they had to have their titillation and spicy stories for their club magazine. Threatening to "out" abductees to the local papers was not unusual. In one case, that was probably a major incident in the 1970s, 30 members of a local UFO group turned up on the doorstep of a teenage female percipient demanding to talk to her.

However, Ufologists then began to send me reports and ask for advice on cases they had. The New Ufology, of course, understood that this was all psychological or (their favourite) some form of paranormal phenomenon. I have seen, and have copies of their "full investigative reports" and they are damning by their being just what the witness told them on a form to "I heard something fall in the kitchen which put me on edge. There seemed a definite paranormal angle to this". Can I just write that at my age I have come to learn that things always fall over in kitchens and there is no paranormal reason for it.

But I was still able to get these reports and the same with contacts in Europe and elsewhere around the world. Even if some did not believe the reports they forwarded them Then European groups decided that a version of "New Ufology" was the way to go. No matter how much trace or corroborating evidence/testimony there was it got put down to "all in the mind".  Again, these "scientific" investigators produced brief investigation reports and the most text came in the part where, at times, they were digging into pretty obscure things and theories to "explain it all away"

Then came Budd Hopkins whose every word went unchallenged. I had tapes of his talks sent to me by a friend in Texas (Travis Whitehurst) and it seemed to be standard alleged UFO abduction cases but then veered away into unfounded claims. Thanks to TV shows the "Greys alien abduction phenomena" became a craze and as with most other crazes it took a while for it to spread around the world as the TV shows told us all about The Greys. From the 1980s on, despite being shown to not quite be telling the truth and fabricating/stacking the evidence cards Hopkins was a super star and a big draw for UFO conferences and TV -others wanted a piece of the action and we got Jacobs, Carpenter and others all feeding the fantasy.

In the meantime the old style UFO landings and CE3Ks were ignored. Witnesses were told that they were abducted. But they remembered every second of the brief encounter -did not matter "You were abducted -possibly from childhood!"  MUFON made good money out of all of this and it's research, if you can call it that, is based on "You were abducted since childhood"

The 1960s Kathy Reeves case could be a high strangeness case but details are often misquoted and added to but it was NEVER investigated. Why? The local UFO investigator couldn't be bothered. No one has ever bothered. Reeves would be in her 70s(?) now and unless she can be traced and spoken to it is a case (one of many) lost because Ufologists could not be bothered. I tried MUFON (again) and no interest. I sent a copy of the file to Barry Greenwood hoping he might know investigators who would be interested. Despite three emails since that time he has not responded. I even suggested the case might interest Erica Lukes... nothing. 

In 1973 the Pascagoula abduction report broke. Two white men allegedly abducted in Mississippi. No one could rush to investigate the case any quicker because this was a big story. In Eupora, Mississippi, same time frame, a group of people in a care saw one UFO land on an interstate road and an entity emerge briefly while a second UFO hovered nearby. A driver in a car coming from the opposite direction braked and did a U turn and drove off. That counts as a major UFO incident. The case was never investigated despite top Ufologists such as Ted Bloecher repeatedly asking local investigators to get involved.Why was it not investigated? The main known witnesses were "black".

Same time frame a man has his car stopped by a UFO and opens fire with a gun when entity(ies) are seen. Never investigated -the percipient was "black". Every and any light in the sky at the time was investigated because witnesses were "white". Damning American Ufology. The witnesses from Eupora etc should be in their 70s by now. It looks like another lost major case. Again, MUFON refused outright to investigate as a "cold case" and even got personally insulting! Greenwood, Lukes and all of the usual suspects were asked if they knew Mississippi based investigators who might be interested or might mention the reports.

Nothing.

In the UK we have the situation where one amateur (he is by no means a real investigator) takes a friend hypnotherapist with him to visit witnesses and put them under hypnosis -that in itself is totally unethical and unprofessional. He claimed in an email to myself that he had "hundreds" of abduction reports each month,

A problem is that Ufology is a mess. You Tube and trashy books full of lies are THE source for many and I can assure you that they are not training videos -the "fan club" attire of all black combat gear adopted by 'Ufologists' and 'ghost hunters' always has me laughing and shows that it is just another fad.

The interest in CE3K/AE reports is simply to pass the time or to steal original material and put it on another blog as "my own work".

So I have all the data and there are cases that need investigating and anything new discovered has been by me because no one is interested. IU am sure that there are still UFO landing reports/CE3Ks but why bother when the Fathers of Deception such as Vallee and Co. are telling us more lies are in fact "the truth" about non-existent flying saucer crashes? Go onto You Tube and you will find very limited, very inaccurate videos on CE3Ks/AEs and a lot from the United States appear to originate from one source and after a year of checking I would not believe it if that source told me "we live on the planet Earth".

No cooperation. Lost cases. That is the 'science' of Ufology in 2023.
