UFO Abduction Story

Abduction: The Screams of Thousand Oaks

I meet most of my clients in a public place. That public place is usually Starbucks. I am sitting outside of Starbucks sipping on my caramel frappachino, wondering what I will learn this day. The air is gray, with the Northern California fires plummeting smoke into our atmosphere, but yet, I still want to sit outside and prepare for my interview. I am also waiting for another HPI Investigator/Ufologist named Holly DeLaughter, who will assist me in this interview. Today is June 26, 2008, Thursday.

Our client Steve Campbell approaches me and shakes my hand. Holly gets comfortable and will interject questions during the interview if there is something that peaks her curiosity during the interview process. I ask Steve to create a time line of events and he begins with how everything first started.

Year: 1960 Location: New Mexico
Steve and his brother are living in New Mexico with their parents. He remembers becoming paralyzed and seeing something by his brother. He was unable to describe what he saw next to his brother.

Year: 1964 Location: Arlington, Texas
Steve experiences what Ufologists consider the Oz Factor. He is in a forest and everything around him is surreal. When this occurred he was either in the 3rd or 4th grade. He describes being sick as a dog a few days afterword.

Why do UFO's spin?

Looking at the various reports and films of flying saucers, the question arises in my mind, why do the majority spin? There must be some advantage to it. I even remember film of a cylinder in Soviet airspace, that corkscrewed away, pursued by fighters (See gun rifling for the same effect with bullets i.e. spiralled chamber0. We know from their antics that they have some anti-gravity mechanism that allows them to float in mid-air and various shots that seem to suggest short leap teleportation but nobody as far as I know has asked this obvious question or answered (correct me if I'm wrong). There was a question in The New Scientist's Last Word column about why a bicycle is hard to balance and keep upright when stationary but requires little effort when moving. An engineer from some university came up with a really ludicrously complex and totally erroneous answer in my opinion, missing out the simple fact that forward momentum cancels out gravity as long as you are centrally balanced. The same thing is true with spinning tops, balanced on a point - the pull of gravity is equalized all the way around as long as there is momentum driving the top forward, keeping it in place. This point is easily demonstrated by rolling a coin along the ground - as momentum fades gravity starts to pull it to one side in a spiral as we see with liquids (3-D version of this): See books by various authors on Viktor Schaubergers work for follow ups to this. Gyroscopes come into this as well, not only as glorified spinning tops but because of work by people like Eric Laithwaite and other engineers that pinpointed how this spinning motion could be utilized by flying saucers, even if only accidently by inspiring people like me in the UFO field.

U.F.O. Theory

For me it's a foregone conclusion with all the evidence that we are being visited by beings from someplace else. Whether it is from our future, other planets, or other dimensions, we don't know. What should be explored in greater deatail, is why Govt; agencies cover this stuff up. In my opinion, we are such indoctrinated social beings, being told what todo from birth, 1st by our parents, when we are 5 school authorities take over until the age of 17, then workplace, military service, other schooling, etc, until we retire, and have some freedom. When that happens most people feel lost, not knowing what to do with themselves, because of the social conditioning. Admitting the existence of Aliens, could cause serious social dysfunction. Theories could circulate that we we're created by alien civilizations, and are a giant cattle farm, waiting to be harvested, like the Twilight Zone thriller where the woman tells the man getting ready to board an alien spacecraft. 'Don't go, its a cookbook. Other theories about them needing our D.N.A. could circulate, and others of similar nature, which the Government feels could cause mass hysteria, and social disorder. People in the World should be educated on this subject to make it less likely. Being told that alien beings, a million years advanced, must have overcome there agressive tendencies to survive would help. Interviews with Govt officials about this subject would help also.

P.S. What happened to the movie documentary about the early 1950's flap over Washington D.C. Haven't seen it on cable. It was very convincing for me.

Los Angeles Times article, June 20, 2008

In an article called "Encounters of the dome kind," Los Angeles Times, June 20, 2008, Scott Gold described the visitors who come to the dome-like Integratron that is located in the Mojave Desert, California, near Joshua Tree National park. The 38-foot-tall wooden dome is now owned by two sisters named Joanne and Jackie Karl. Constructed by aerospace engineer George Van Tassel sometime after 1947, the dome is said to be modeled on the Tabernacle cited in the Old Testament and related to the Hebrew prophet Moses. The Integratron reportedly has healing powers and unusual acoustics related to vibrating crystal glasses hit by hammers that create waves of sound to visitors who climb up a lader to get inside the wooden dome. Van Tassel reportedly looked at the dome as related to the concept of time travel. Each year over 1,000 people visit the dome, and musical groups record albums inside because of the unusual acoutics. Van Tassel said he had been visited by extraterrestrials in 1952 and built the dome for this reason. The striking dome is near Giant Rock or a seven-story high boulder out in the desert. I visited Giant Rock in 1965 and gave a talk before a crowd of visitors on the significance of the coming of the UFOs or saucers. I have always felt that the UFOs are related to the forming and measured designs of our evolving world and to its gradual and measured designs. Indeed, the Bible states that "In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth" (Genesis 1:1). Isaiah 40:12,22 and Job 38:4-7 refer to the creation and measured designs of our world by a Creator-Designer. In May of 1940 near Townsend, Montana, a 37-year-old miner named Udo Wartena said he saw an object in the sky that came down and hovered and a spiral staircase came out. Udo went aboard and met two humanoids who said they were 600 to over 900 years old, had luminous skin, looked strong and healthy, with pure white hair, had made previous surveys of our world and used the pure mountain water at the site for their power needs. Udo had an honest reputation and was a former Mormon missionary and had a family. According to UFO researcher Warren P. Aston, Udo reportedly kept written records, told his friends and neighbors about the 1940 sighting, and revisited
the UFO site near Townsend, Montana, with close friends and took photographs. But he reportedly never saw the object again. He passed way in Oregon at the age of 86 in 1989.

Alfred spikes another one over the net!

Hooray, Alfred Lehmberg! Your article in UFO magazine's April issue was pure joy to read in it's astute, "laser beam" assessment of the "why's" regarding the collective's ongoing denial of UFO's, and the more than likely (welcome) outcomes of that collective's eventual crossing of its own self generated ocean of egocentricity.

That being said, my own sense is that this "collective" represents far fewer people than we may realize. I personally believe that there are more people out there who are wide open to, and would even welcome, the prospect of "outside influence," but yet lack the courage to poke their heads above the status quo crowd and let their presence be known.

Assuming I am right, I would then have to offer that the mechanism that keeps them "low profile" on this subject is the as yet, deeply persuading fear of "not fitting in." I think there is some primal wiring inside the human being, who is a social creature at heart, that predisposes us toward protecting (at almost all costs), our ability to be accepted (and loved) by our peers. The potential fate of ending up with the status of "social outcast," to the average human being, may ring just as terrifying a chord in the human heart as death itself. It's why "ridicule" and "shame" have worked so very well as tools for keeping those "in the know," quiet for so long.

Do the arrogant perspectives you speak of regarding our views of ourselves in relationship to the rest of the universe exist? Absolutely! Are we blinkered in our views of macrocosm, due to microcosmic fascinations with those things inane and fear based? Most definitely. But I do have some sense (based on what, I could not say), that lurking within the human heart is an awareness (perhaps yet unconscious), that we are gravely off track as a species, that our "freedoms" in a "free world" are anything but, and that the deep and haunting sense of meaninglessness and emptiness will not be assuaged by another materialistic "fix."
