DULCE BASE CONFERENCE RAISES MORE QUESTIONS THAN ANSWERS!!

March 30, 2009

DULCE, NEW MEXICO  --  Close to 120 people showed up for the first
"underground base" conference ever to be held in Dulce, New Mexico on
Sunday, March 29.
The event made a rather tumultuous start at the Best Western Jicarilla
Inn at 10 a.m.
By that time the entire bar lounge area began to be filled beyond
capacity.

And by the time the first speaker (former Dulce ranch owner, Edmund
Gomez) began his  presentation, many people had to stand and wait in
the adjacent restaurant area.
It was then that the Fire Department issued a warning saying that the
conference must immediately be moved elsewhere.

Halfway through the speaker's fascinating presentation, the Fire
Department issued a stern second warning saying that the number of
people inside the conference room far exceeded its capacity.
Panic then began to be felt by the event's organizer, Norio Hayakawa
of Rio Rancho.
Hotel employees frantically made phone calls to find out if there were
any other locations available for the conference to go on.

It was then that Hoyt Velarde, former Dulce police officer and head of
Public Safety Department, suggested to Hayakawa that the conference be
moved to a civic hall inside a small shopping center across the street
from the hotel.
With Velarde's swift assistance in making the arrangement, and after a
short intermission, the entire Dulce Base:  Fact or Fiction?
conference and public forum finally resumed and continued the rest of
the day at the new location.

As an interesting side note, on Sunday morning when it was still dark
outside, many guests at the Best Western Jicarilla Inn were awakened
shortly before 6 a.m. by a thunderous roar of blades of helicopters
above.   Local residents nearby reported that there was a rare low
flight of two military helicopters above Dulce.
In the afternoon session of the conference, two local residents also
testified that they witnessed the military helicopters circling above
Dulce and that they passed slowly above the hotel.  They told Hayakawa
that there are occasional appearances of military helicopters over the
town but the flights were never as low as what they saw early Sunday
morning.

As organizer and moderator of this conference, Hayakwa several times
alluded to an allegation that the government, beginning in the early
1970s and lasting till the early 1980s, may have conducted clandestine
operations in the area involving experiments with bovine diseases,
anthrax and other substances as part of biological warfare research.

He also alluded to another allegation that there may also have been
some illegal dumping or storage of toxic chemicals and other bio-
hazardous materials in the nearby areas.

Hayakawa stated that he tends to support a theory that the government
may have purposefully created some 'convenient' cover stories
(underground alien base concept) to conceal those clandestine
activities and may even have staged a series of fake 'UFO-type'
incidents in the area, utilizing high tech equipment such as
holographic projection devices.

However he also stated that he cannot deny any possibility that there
may indeed be some unknown interdimensional phenomenon in the area
which happens to be filled with fascinating cultural and spiritual
beliefs of the Jicarilla Apache nation.

The speakers at the conference were:

1) Edmund Gomez,  spokesman for the entire Gomez family who owned a
large ranch in Dulce.  Their ranch has lost more than 17 cows during
the height of cattle mutilations incidents and experienced substantial
financial loss over the years.

2) Hoyt Velarde, former Dulce police officer and head of Public Safety
Department.

3) Gabe Valdez, former New Mexico state patrol officer in charge of
the Dulce area.  He investigated numerous cattle mutilation cases in
the Dulce area from the mid 1970s to the early 1980s.

4) Christopher O' Brien, researcher of paranormal activities in the
San Luis Valley of Southern Colorado.

5) Dr.. Michael E. Salla, initiator of "exopolitics" and author of a
book entitled:  EXPOSING U.S. GOVERNMENT POLICIES ON EXTRATERRESTRIAL
LIFE.

6) Greg Bishop, author of PROJECT BETA, a book in which he describes
in detail his investigations of the claims of an Albuquerque scientist
by the name of Paul Bennewitz who was one of the initial sources
behind the rumors of an underground base in Dulce.

7) Gabe Julian, former Dulce police officer who worked under the late
Raleigh Tafoya, former Dulce Police Chief.

8) Dennis Balthaser, a well-known UFO researcher from Roswell, New
Mexico.

and

9) Keith Ealy, a researcher with a fascinating view of Dulce as being
a space time portal for interdimensionals, a topic similarly shared by
world famous researchers, Dr. Jacques Vallee and John Keel.
