Mr. UFO Tim Beckley, on UFO Digest

Timothy Beckley, "Mr. UFO" has been, and continues to be, one of UFO Land's most prolific and over all awesome (yep, I said "awesome") contributors. And writers. And researchers.  Here's an article by Sean Casteel (a writer and researcher in his own right, also "awesome") for UFO Digest on Mr. Beckley.

Going Back A Bit In Time – Revisiting The Early Days Of UFOlogy And The Contactee Movement | UFO Digest provides video proof of ufos, alien abduction and the paranormal.

At UFO Digest, Sean Casteel reviews Tim Beckley's reprint of two stories of two female contactees, Dana Howard and Gloria Lee. (I wrote the intro for the Gloria Lee book.) As Sean points out, there are UFO researchers who reject the contactee era as embarrassing nonsense, or, as he puts it, attack Tim Beckley for exploitation:

Though Tim Beckley believes his motivations should be seen as altruistic, to others they are controversial even appalling. There are still some purists in the field who believe that “contactee” is a dirty word. Yet all things considered, Beckley is doing the UFO community a huge service by reprinting hard to find books from the 1950s, books written by early UFO experiencers who were the first to claim contact with the aliens after the initial sighting by Kenneth Arnold in 1947 that started it all.

UFO Digest: Stopping the Hybrid Critters - Some possible reasons behind the mystery of Roswell

Peter Farley, on UFO Digest, writes about Roswell in his article Stopping the Hybrid Critters - Some possible reasons behind the mystery of Roswell. Farley channels something, or one, called Guidance, (link provided in article) who has news to share about hybrid beings in the Roswell area. Among other things, there's a "bubble" or portal in Roswell.

Many sensitive people I know have actually stated to me something along the lines of 'there's an energetic bubble' covering Roswell since way back when. Over the course of 25 years or more of my involvement with the two I too ahve always noticed this seeming energetic doorway or barrier one passes through about 40 miles out from Roswell in almost every direction.

This may sound far fetched, but there are numerous areas not only in the U.S. ( many of which seem to be in the West and Southwest) but the world over, that seem to be gateways between other worlds, dimensions, etc. How else to explain, for example, the extreme high strangeness of places such as the ranch in Utah, site of the Hunt for the Skinwalker, or the Redgate, Montana sightings of UFOs and aliens, or the very strange events in Colorado, going back hundreds of years, that invovle cattle mutilations and other UADS (unexplained animal deaths), UFO sightings, and so much more?

MIB History in America

Researcher Art Champoux has a good piece on UFO Digest on the history of MIBS in this country:Extraterrestrials in America's History.

For more interesting background on the MIBs, read William Bramley's The Gods of Eden.

Also, for a more academic look, see The "Men in Black" Experience and Tradition: Analogues with the Traditional Devil Hypothesis
by folklorist Peter M. Rojcewicz for The Journal of American Folklore, Vol. 100, No. 396 (Apr. - Jun., 1987), pp. 148-160 (article consists of 13 pages) You have to be an academic or pay to get this on-line, fortunately I still have this from my college days.

Just for fun, this image of James Cagney from the classic Public Enemy, while having nothing to do with MIBs, just gives the MIBS creeps!

Steve Hammons has UFO,ET SITUATION DESCRIBED IN SPECIAL OPS MANUAL

There's a review of Richard Dolan's UFO's and The National Security State: Chronology of a Cover-up 1941-1973, by UFO Digest contributor Timothy Borgman.

Oldest UFO Photo?

Writer Richelle Hawks has a very interesting article on UFO Digest right now: On The Right Track: Toward Solving the Mystery of the First Known UFO Photograph. Just what is that thing anyway?

Contactee Dana Howard: From Venus or Mary?

My recent item on female Contactee Dana Howard for UFO Digest: The Mystical Contactee Encounters of Dana Howard:Parallels to Marian Apparitions? Howard had her first contact in 1939, having them again in the 1950s.

Beware the Counterfeit

The geniune and the fake . . .

Ed Komarek has a good article on the contactees and abductees on UFO Digest: Exopolitics: Counterfeit Contactees. Komarek not only gives a lot of historical background but gives us a fresh and insightful perspective, one that was a pleasant surprise. A lot to think about.
