187 00:09:31,000 --> 00:09:37,000 But then it could be called to visit the TEMPT by other FAA facilities, of course, that they have... 188 00:09:37,000 --> 00:09:41,000 You're about the route left to call, you know, for this sort of thing. 189 00:09:41,000 --> 00:09:45,000 Now, it began to learn of APRO, began to learn of OOPON. 190 00:09:45,000 --> 00:09:49,000 And that is, yes, it's not a pathetic means of... 191 00:09:49,000 --> 00:09:54,000 It's no one 800 number we could give out that would service everybody. 192 00:09:54,000 --> 00:09:56,000 But all the groups could agree. 193 00:09:56,000 --> 00:09:58,000 You know. 194 00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:05,000 In all honesty, I had to tell them, oh, and I really don't know how the plan to resolve that. 195 00:10:05,000 --> 00:10:08,000 God, yeah, they give out... 196 00:10:08,000 --> 00:10:14,000 You know, if they start passing your number out to the general public, why you could end up with a deluge 197 00:10:14,000 --> 00:10:16,000 of just junk calls. 198 00:10:16,000 --> 00:10:18,000 I know. 199 00:10:19,000 --> 00:10:24,000 And then when the high priority stuff wants to come through, they just can't get through. 200 00:10:24,000 --> 00:10:33,000 That's the big problem with an 800 number on this subject, because it leaves the door wide open to all the cranks in the country. 201 00:10:33,000 --> 00:10:40,000 Well, certainly with our police, without the waiters, I've spoken to maybe four cranks and 800 calls. 202 00:10:41,000 --> 00:10:46,000 But I think we're pre-screening a little too strongly. 203 00:10:46,000 --> 00:10:51,000 Either there really aren't any humanoid cases, things taking place right now. 204 00:10:51,000 --> 00:10:53,000 We're just not getting them. 205 00:10:53,000 --> 00:10:56,000 Physical trace cases, anything like that. 206 00:10:56,000 --> 00:10:59,000 Did you hear about the one in... 207 00:11:01,000 --> 00:11:05,000 Well, let's see. Now, this would be done by Pittsburgh, California? 208 00:11:06,000 --> 00:11:10,000 Yeah, as a matter of fact, we were on-store. 209 00:11:10,000 --> 00:11:13,000 I spoke to the kids initially. 210 00:11:13,000 --> 00:11:25,000 In fact, the night that it happened, excuse me, within 24 hours that it happened, I can list every radar facility, most civilian and military, in that area. 211 00:11:25,000 --> 00:11:28,000 What no luck whatsoever. 212 00:11:28,000 --> 00:11:31,000 The night after the night it happened. 213 00:11:31,000 --> 00:11:38,000 And then I got Richard Haynes to go out there and talk to the boys as well. 214 00:11:38,000 --> 00:11:46,000 I also spoke to them to an extent on the phone, but it was clear that they needed somebody to go back out to the site to point things out. 215 00:11:46,000 --> 00:11:53,000 So I've got a certain amount of preliminary information on that from Dick Haynes, and I'll be writing it up the next time you are. 216 00:11:53,000 --> 00:11:55,000 Do you receive it now? 217 00:11:55,000 --> 00:11:56,000 No. 218 00:11:56,000 --> 00:11:57,000 You're not? 219 00:11:57,000 --> 00:11:58,000 No. 220 00:11:59,000 --> 00:12:04,000 No, I was too much in the poor house to get a subscription in. 221 00:12:07,000 --> 00:12:12,000 But did those kids ever take a lighting test or a test? 222 00:12:12,000 --> 00:12:25,000 No, I really don't. The nature of the descriptions they provide it is sort of tenuous and mirage-like in itself. 223 00:12:25,000 --> 00:12:30,000 But there's nothing to really commit them to. 224 00:12:30,000 --> 00:12:35,000 If they were making up a story, they didn't make up a very good one. 225 00:12:35,000 --> 00:12:41,000 Dark figures that can barely be seen walking down the road towards them. 226 00:12:41,000 --> 00:12:49,000 A UFO that could only be made out by the roll of windows along it, not like an airplane unfortunately, 227 00:12:49,000 --> 00:12:54,000 but it was just a few steady large windows that were there for an hour. 228 00:12:54,000 --> 00:13:01,000 They couldn't even be sure whether it actually landed on the ground or just rose above it. 229 00:13:01,000 --> 00:13:04,000 They all offered very tenuous stories. 230 00:13:04,000 --> 00:13:08,000 It's not the kind of thing that somebody would make up really. 231 00:13:08,000 --> 00:13:12,000 Really, unfortunately, it's of highly limited value. 232 00:13:13,000 --> 00:13:23,000 Yeah, and I guess that neither one of them had any real background knowledge. 233 00:13:23,000 --> 00:13:25,000 Of course they were too young to... 234 00:13:25,000 --> 00:13:26,000 Well... 235 00:13:26,000 --> 00:13:27,000 Yeah. 236 00:13:29,000 --> 00:13:34,000 But I think somebody that's thought of an extreme detail and resolution of experience, 237 00:13:34,000 --> 00:13:36,000 said, yeah, I could see going to polygraph. 238 00:13:36,000 --> 00:13:41,000 So my experience with polygraph on this attempt at all that promising. 239 00:13:41,000 --> 00:13:42,000 Yeah. 240 00:13:42,000 --> 00:13:53,000 So once took a woman named Hicks in the crew for a television show special based on an experience she had in Hillsborough, Illinois back in 1975, 241 00:13:53,000 --> 00:13:55,000 with Kim Adoite in her backyard. 242 00:13:55,000 --> 00:14:00,000 I took her in to John Leighton, an associate here in Chicago. 243 00:14:00,000 --> 00:14:07,000 And she would give it a polygraph test where she would simply ask the four valiant on the same question, 244 00:14:07,000 --> 00:14:11,000 are you telling the truth about the details of the writing? 245 00:14:11,000 --> 00:14:14,000 And depending on how they worded the questions, 246 00:14:14,000 --> 00:14:18,000 sometimes she would register a considerable amount of stress, 247 00:14:18,000 --> 00:14:23,000 and the next time she'd register no stress at all, even though it was the same question, 248 00:14:23,000 --> 00:14:25,000 just worded in a different way. 249 00:14:25,000 --> 00:14:32,000 And they had to rule off the test as being a valid arbiter or proof for or against. 250 00:14:33,000 --> 00:14:41,000 And their general comment, it was the first time they had experience with polygraph with a UFO witness. 251 00:14:41,000 --> 00:14:49,000 They said there's so much room for such activity, you know, and personal observation that it's just not a clear cut. 252 00:14:49,000 --> 00:14:54,000 As their usual experience of saying, did you rob money from a bank or didn't you rob money from a bank? 253 00:14:54,000 --> 00:14:55,000 Right. 254 00:14:55,000 --> 00:15:00,000 There's so much latitude for personal interpretation. 255 00:15:01,000 --> 00:15:15,000 So I've been a little off-polygraphed myself, in fact, I've been a little frustrated to find any type of procedure to back up a person's integrity. 256 00:15:16,000 --> 00:15:21,000 What about that psychological stress evaluator or voice? 257 00:15:22,000 --> 00:15:28,000 We've heard good things about it. It's an extensive thing, I can tell you that. 258 00:15:28,000 --> 00:15:38,000 We had a brochure on it, advertising one, which you could hook up directly to your telephone, 259 00:15:38,000 --> 00:15:43,000 so that when you spoke to people of the phone, they'd move it to you whether what they're telling you or what they're doing. 260 00:15:43,000 --> 00:15:47,000 Right. And the man who made that thing up, who was just east of Seattle. 261 00:15:47,000 --> 00:15:51,000 That's right. He learned about $1,600 for it. 262 00:15:51,000 --> 00:15:52,000 Yeah, that's all. 263 00:15:52,000 --> 00:15:53,000 That's right. 264 00:15:54,000 --> 00:15:58,000 I don't know whether the truth is worse that much or not. 265 00:15:58,000 --> 00:16:06,000 Of course, the measure is, you know, stress, I suppose, but to a great extent you have to ask, you know, what's inspiring the stress? 266 00:16:06,000 --> 00:16:09,000 In other words, the problem is polygraph, too. 267 00:16:10,000 --> 00:16:14,000 So much of an interpretation, you know. 268 00:16:14,000 --> 00:16:20,000 I see what analogy that I always pass out is that someone's not magician doing a trick. 269 00:16:20,000 --> 00:16:23,000 And you didn't know how the trick was done. 270 00:16:23,000 --> 00:16:27,000 You got asked, you know, did you really see a big woman disappear in her cloak? 271 00:16:27,000 --> 00:16:29,000 You'd say, yes, you really did. 272 00:16:29,000 --> 00:16:31,000 You showed no stress on PSE. 273 00:16:31,000 --> 00:16:38,000 You passed polygraph, truth serum, everything else, but then it really happened physically, blah, blah, blah. 274 00:16:38,000 --> 00:16:39,000 Right. 275 00:16:39,000 --> 00:16:44,000 You know, sending these boys, they'd be like, you're in the dark. 276 00:16:44,000 --> 00:16:52,000 One of them, you know, gave me a detailed thing about how after we were walking in, they had a limp, and they were marching in step. 277 00:16:52,000 --> 00:16:56,000 You know, the boys, they didn't see both kind of details. 278 00:16:56,000 --> 00:17:02,000 But with a hope, they shouldn't agree on the facts at all. 279 00:17:03,000 --> 00:17:14,000 Well, don't you think it would make a difference if the original reports, the original conversation went through a PSI machine? 280 00:17:14,000 --> 00:17:18,000 It doesn't even have to be original, as I understand it. 281 00:17:19,000 --> 00:17:35,000 For example, they subjected a tape recording off of a television interview with Hixson and Parker with Tastagulants, and they were describing it long after the fact. 282 00:17:35,000 --> 00:17:40,000 Well, the PSI revealed that they were telling the truth. 283 00:17:40,000 --> 00:17:51,000 If you want to interpret it as such, considerably after the thing had been put into the past, it's still fair to ask the question. 284 00:17:51,000 --> 00:18:07,000 What variable for involvement creates stress besides an awareness that you're not accurately portraying the facts, especially long after you told the story up to ten times, and you kind of, you know, comfortably settled into place with it. 285 00:18:07,000 --> 00:18:12,000 So I saw Dr. Heineken, this, um... 286 00:18:12,000 --> 00:18:15,000 Oh, I can't remember this guy's name. 287 00:18:15,000 --> 00:18:17,000 What's the variable for involvement? 288 00:18:17,000 --> 00:18:18,000 Yeah, right. 289 00:18:18,000 --> 00:18:20,000 Yeah, it was a pretty close call. 290 00:18:25,000 --> 00:18:31,000 They thought, like, you know, about an hour's worth, because it valid for about ten minutes. 291 00:18:31,000 --> 00:18:46,000 He made the statement there that the center is evaluating or investigating up to twelve reduction reports right now. Is this true? 292 00:18:46,000 --> 00:18:51,000 Uh, they are not new reduction cases. 293 00:18:51,000 --> 00:19:12,000 I should note along to the California, you know, the hypnotist lead over William McCall, um, and they tried a controlled experiment where they took people who had not had abduction experiences, put them under hypnosis, and attempting not to lead them. 294 00:19:12,000 --> 00:19:26,000 They simply asked them, you know, whether or not they'd ever been abductioned by UFO, and I guess they proceeded to go into great detailed narratives, describing the occupants and the interior of the craft, and everything. 295 00:19:26,000 --> 00:19:38,000 All six volunteers did this stuff, and at the end, when they asked what the studies and experiences gave up, or were they real, the people start insisting they're real. All six. 296 00:19:39,000 --> 00:19:51,000 Well, I don't know any of the details. I don't know how much they led these witnesses, or how much input, you know, they were fed. The report that stands right now is not preliminary. It doesn't really go into detail. 297 00:19:51,000 --> 00:20:10,000 But, uh, I've always been, I've always ordered, I've always been a little suspicious about whether or not people were just bringing up fantasy by their subconscious as their minds are being addressed by hypnosis, or whether or not, uh, really was an accurate portrayal of something that had happened, physically. 298 00:20:10,000 --> 00:20:31,000 Ever since then, the little finger talks about that Missouri fishermen case that happened last year, I think it was last summer, where the guy was being hypnotized. He told a story about the fishing near the car, saw some UFOs, run back to the car, and slumped over it. 299 00:20:31,000 --> 00:20:44,000 Came to about three hours later, when they hypnotized him, he told about being abducted, examined, dropped onto an alien landscape, and then returned again, back to his car. 300 00:20:44,000 --> 00:21:10,000 The hypnotist asked him to describe the occupants, and he gave a really horrendous looking appearance, even for usefulness. The hypnotist asked him, are you sure? This guy found a second, not a pretty hypnotic chance, he found a second and said, no, no, that's something I saw, that's what they come at, said. 301 00:21:11,000 --> 00:21:18,000 As I understand it, in about 20 hours of recording testimony, there's a lot of singers like that. 302 00:21:19,000 --> 00:21:46,000 And I was in that case, that maybe first start wondering about whether or not, you know, I've been following Leo's sprinkled statements, how difficult or impossible it is to lie under hypnosis, but, uh, that, and now this report on this controlled experiment, the six volunteers who've never seen a UFO before, all of them loosensily describing occupants in the interior and all the craft, and the instruments, and the light panels, and everything. 303 00:21:47,000 --> 00:21:55,000 But the accidents look like all of their hypnosis, but I guess a bit of them are leading by the investigators. Really makes you ask questions. 304 00:21:56,000 --> 00:21:57,000 Well, that's kind of scary. 305 00:21:58,000 --> 00:21:59,000 Yeah, it is. 306 00:22:00,000 --> 00:22:15,000 I mean, you know, I'm sure you know as well as I do, but with all the people calling in the ad planes, and calling us with their dope clips, with lights running around the edges, and everything else, you know, reading all this detail into these workshop blocks, and sure you've wondered as much as I have, how much of this stuff. 307 00:22:16,000 --> 00:22:18,000 And I think that's part of the problem is partly sociological. 308 00:22:19,000 --> 00:22:20,000 Right. 309 00:22:21,000 --> 00:22:24,000 How much of an emotional climate there is affecting people's judgments about UFOs. 310 00:22:25,000 --> 00:22:28,000 And this is sort of directly to the point. 311 00:22:31,000 --> 00:22:34,000 Leo, I think that's enough of your time, Bob. 312 00:22:35,000 --> 00:22:37,000 Well, I sure have been a pleasure talking to you again. 313 00:22:38,000 --> 00:22:40,000 Okay, you're not coming to the big conference by any chance, are you? 314 00:22:41,000 --> 00:22:45,000 No, no, I'm, uh, I'm retired now, so I got my little tip. 315 00:22:46,000 --> 00:22:48,000 I'm going to do a little bit of a presentation of what I can do. 316 00:22:49,000 --> 00:22:50,000 Okay. 317 00:22:51,000 --> 00:22:53,000 I sure like to, because it sounds like a dandy. 318 00:22:54,000 --> 00:22:55,000 Uh-huh, uh-huh. 319 00:22:56,000 --> 00:22:58,000 Well, let's just know what it's like when I talk to you later on. 320 00:22:59,000 --> 00:23:00,000 Very good. 321 00:23:01,000 --> 00:23:02,000 Okay, great.
