sighting early on to look back in 47 00:02:02,300 --> 00:01:59,700 the 50s in his youth and Greg I'm really 48 00:02:03,859 --> 00:02:02,310 looking forward to that and that's 49 00:02:07,459 --> 00:02:03,869 enough for me 50 00:02:10,580 --> 00:02:07,469 alejandro how are you I am good how are 51 00:02:12,130 --> 00:02:10,590 you I am great in the great state of 52 00:02:14,500 --> 00:02:12,140 Maine and we 53 00:02:17,530 --> 00:02:14,510 I'm talking about traffic jams in 54 00:02:20,650 --> 00:02:17,540 Arizona and there's hardly even roads 55 00:02:21,970 --> 00:02:20,660 here so really well that's I don't know 56 00:02:24,040 --> 00:02:21,980 if that's good or bad that's probably 57 00:02:25,630 --> 00:02:24,050 bad hon they get all clogged up I'm 58 00:02:30,040 --> 00:02:25,640 assuming well it's good for the Moose 59 00:02:31,510 --> 00:02:30,050 but yeah it's right a moose yeah you got 60 00:02:33,790 --> 00:02:31,520 to be creative think outside of the box 61 00:02:36,400 --> 00:02:33,800 well you know who's for Transportation 62 00:02:38,500 --> 00:02:36,410 tourism here is getting heavier in 63 00:02:41,050 --> 00:02:38,510 heavier every year so winning anything 64 00:02:42,070 --> 00:02:41,060 like you know July 4th weekend coming 65 00:02:44,800 --> 00:02:42,080 right up 66 00:02:47,199 --> 00:02:44,810 boy does i-95 goes right at the state of 67 00:02:49,120 --> 00:02:47,209 Maine and it is clogged all over really 68 00:02:51,580 --> 00:02:49,130 yeah from it goes way down into New 69 00:02:52,900 --> 00:02:51,590 Hampshire because there's tolls you know 70 00:02:54,640 --> 00:02:52,910 they have to go through tolls and stop 71 00:02:56,920 --> 00:02:54,650 with a toll and that clogs everybody up 72 00:02:59,440 --> 00:02:56,930 so it's always a pain so I like being up 73 00:03:01,780 --> 00:02:59,450 in the mountain away from everybody 74 00:03:03,850 --> 00:03:01,790 well I think that gives me an excuse to 75 00:03:06,750 --> 00:03:03,860 plug something and since this is alive 76 00:03:08,920 --> 00:03:06,760 you can't stop me where's the music 77 00:03:11,100 --> 00:03:08,930 Roswell I'm gonna be in Roswell this 78 00:03:13,660 --> 00:03:11,110 weekend so that's exciting ufo-related 79 00:03:15,790 --> 00:03:13,670 it's gonna be like my eighth year or 80 00:03:18,640 --> 00:03:15,800 something going out there I did miss one 81 00:03:20,680 --> 00:03:18,650 year but it's always a lot of fun and 82 00:03:22,930 --> 00:03:20,690 they have the most amazing fireworks 83 00:03:25,990 --> 00:03:22,940 display there's a fireworks company out 84 00:03:27,250 --> 00:03:26,000 there so it's like 45 minutes and you 85 00:03:31,840 --> 00:03:27,260 think the whole thing and it's the 86 00:03:33,220 --> 00:03:31,850 finale cuz they're just tons and tons I 87 00:03:35,560 --> 00:03:33,230 think they just blew up all their extra 88 00:03:37,990 --> 00:03:35,570 ones out there it's incredible you would 89 00:03:39,699 --> 00:03:38,000 not imagine it in this little town in 90 00:03:42,100 --> 00:03:39,709 the middle of nowhere in New Mexico but 91 00:03:45,250 --> 00:03:42,110 of course it'll be fun and I will be 92 00:03:46,270 --> 00:03:45,260 seeing Tom and Dawn there and hearing 93 00:03:49,569 --> 00:03:46,280 what they have to say 94 00:03:51,850 --> 00:03:49,579 of course they are in the limelight they 95 00:03:56,050 --> 00:03:51,860 are quite notorious at this moment 96 00:03:59,170 --> 00:03:56,060 because of the Roswell slides stuff you 97 00:04:01,750 --> 00:03:59,180 have the lingering and lingering mm-hmm 98 00:04:04,300 --> 00:04:01,760 yep we'll see how long it lingers but 99 00:04:05,530 --> 00:04:04,310 yeah I promised I wouldn't talk about 100 00:04:08,229 --> 00:04:05,540 that so what's going on with the news 101 00:04:10,840 --> 00:04:08,239 the news it's too late you already did 102 00:04:13,990 --> 00:04:10,850 talk about it but I should mention I not 103 00:04:15,730 --> 00:04:14,000 much about it but today is Canadian Day 104 00:04:19,210 --> 00:04:15,740 Canada Day 105 00:04:23,620 --> 00:04:19,220 so we do have a story up written by a 106 00:04:25,000 --> 00:04:23,630 Canadian Chris Bukowski and he runs a 107 00:04:27,310 --> 00:04:25,010 site up there where they do a lot of 108 00:04:29,650 --> 00:04:27,320 really good work on following sightings 109 00:04:32,650 --> 00:04:29,660 and he wrote this story about the top 10 110 00:04:35,620 --> 00:04:32,660 strangest Canadian UFO reports and he 111 00:04:37,840 --> 00:04:35,630 based it off of UFO researchers 112 00:04:39,970 --> 00:04:37,850 investigators that he pulled so that's 113 00:04:41,560 --> 00:04:39,980 kind of fun after Canadian day story 114 00:04:43,390 --> 00:04:41,570 that's up there and I kind of sprung 115 00:04:46,860 --> 00:04:43,400 that on you so you probably don't have 116 00:04:49,810 --> 00:04:46,870 to link up yet it's not there you hoser 117 00:04:52,360 --> 00:04:49,820 i'm hoser i you know I've been 118 00:04:53,650 --> 00:04:52,370 refraining from saying a and hoser even 119 00:04:55,210 --> 00:04:53,660 though it's a lot of fun and before the 120 00:04:57,700 --> 00:04:55,220 show started we were doing quite a bit 121 00:04:59,620 --> 00:04:57,710 of it and I just started thinking if 122 00:05:01,540 --> 00:04:59,630 it's Canada Day shouldn't we be 123 00:05:04,090 --> 00:05:01,550 celebrating them and not making fun of 124 00:05:06,940 --> 00:05:04,100 them not that's uh that is celebrating 125 00:05:08,830 --> 00:05:06,950 them yeah it's okay it'd be awesome to 126 00:05:09,970 --> 00:05:08,840 be able to talk like that you will you 127 00:05:13,890 --> 00:05:09,980 convinced me eh 128 00:05:16,000 --> 00:05:13,900 yeah all right so otherwise though 129 00:05:18,700 --> 00:05:16,010 speaking of other news in other 130 00:05:22,420 --> 00:05:18,710 countries we've posted a story and this 131 00:05:24,760 --> 00:05:22,430 was given to us by Andres Muller he has 132 00:05:27,520 --> 00:05:24,770 a fourteen kind of website frontier 133 00:05:30,910 --> 00:05:27,530 science he calls that website in Germany 134 00:05:32,860 --> 00:05:30,920 that's very popular and he'll send us 135 00:05:35,620 --> 00:05:32,870 stories once in a while and this is a 136 00:05:38,970 --> 00:05:35,630 really interesting one so the federal 137 00:05:44,770 --> 00:05:38,980 administrative Supreme Court of Germany 138 00:05:47,830 --> 00:05:44,780 has forced the essentially the German 139 00:05:49,900 --> 00:05:47,840 government to release this UFO file I 140 00:05:52,240 --> 00:05:49,910 guess they haven't done it yet but 141 00:05:55,060 --> 00:05:52,250 there's a scientific organization that 142 00:05:56,860 --> 00:05:55,070 did a report on UFOs and the German 143 00:05:59,020 --> 00:05:56,870 government has not wanted to release 144 00:06:01,480 --> 00:05:59,030 this even though people know it exists 145 00:06:04,570 --> 00:06:01,490 it was created by their scientifical 146 00:06:07,960 --> 00:06:04,580 service is what they call it and I guess 147 00:06:12,370 --> 00:06:07,970 it has to do with Germany and the UN 148 00:06:14,200 --> 00:06:12,380 resolution to release UFO information 149 00:06:17,350 --> 00:06:14,210 but it's been kind of a long fought 150 00:06:21,580 --> 00:06:17,360 battle for UFO researchers to see this 151 00:06:23,170 --> 00:06:21,590 paper and soon they will because the had 152 00:06:25,240 --> 00:06:23,180 to go all the way up to the Supreme 153 00:06:27,070 --> 00:06:25,250 Court of Germany to release this 154 00:06:29,650 --> 00:06:27,080 document so it's a really interesting 155 00:06:31,210 --> 00:06:29,660 file or a story 156 00:06:34,900 --> 00:06:31,220 and that should be coming out soon and 157 00:06:36,580 --> 00:06:34,910 as far as that UN resolution it actually 158 00:06:39,910 --> 00:06:36,590 got watered down 159 00:06:41,490 --> 00:06:39,920 it was a UN I can't remember the exact 160 00:06:44,530 --> 00:06:41,500 word but something like you and 161 00:06:47,200 --> 00:06:44,540 suggestion it came out to be but if 162 00:06:51,400 --> 00:06:47,210 people aren't aware in the 1970s Eric 163 00:06:53,200 --> 00:06:51,410 gairy of Grenada had got really into 164 00:06:56,650 --> 00:06:53,210 UFOs he said he had a sighting and he 165 00:06:59,790 --> 00:06:56,660 went to the UN as a Ewing you know 166 00:07:02,440 --> 00:06:59,800 country delegate and said we need to 167 00:07:04,420 --> 00:07:02,450 release information on UFOs and share 168 00:07:07,510 --> 00:07:04,430 information and create a department at 169 00:07:10,720 --> 00:07:07,520 the UN then investigates UFOs it got 170 00:07:17,350 --> 00:07:10,730 stalled for a year this was I think 76 171 00:07:19,660 --> 00:07:17,360 to 77 and 78 and finally it came out as 172 00:07:21,850 --> 00:07:19,670 kind of this UN I can't remember the 173 00:07:23,620 --> 00:07:21,860 word but it is like a suggestion or 174 00:07:26,680 --> 00:07:23,630 something like that which it just means 175 00:07:29,770 --> 00:07:26,690 that it got watered down to the point 176 00:07:31,420 --> 00:07:29,780 but it did get voted on and passed on 177 00:07:33,940 --> 00:07:31,430 the records where all of the UN 178 00:07:35,620 --> 00:07:33,950 countries were to share their UFO 179 00:07:37,420 --> 00:07:35,630 information with the UN and then they 180 00:07:39,820 --> 00:07:37,430 would all share it amongst each other in 181 00:07:41,920 --> 00:07:39,830 these countries and never came out to 182 00:07:43,750 --> 00:07:41,930 fruition we've had some interesting 183 00:07:45,520 --> 00:07:43,760 stories come out and Lee Spiegel has 184 00:07:48,250 --> 00:07:45,530 written about this because Lee Spiegel 185 00:07:49,990 --> 00:07:48,260 actually organized yeah he was involved 186 00:07:52,480 --> 00:07:50,000 he organized a presentation at the UN 187 00:07:54,640 --> 00:07:52,490 for this thing and we have found out 188 00:07:57,970 --> 00:07:54,650 later on that the UK government 189 00:08:00,160 --> 00:07:57,980 especially was really against the whole 190 00:08:02,830 --> 00:08:00,170 thing and in the background was lobbying 191 00:08:04,570 --> 00:08:02,840 against it so really interesting story 192 00:08:07,540 --> 00:08:04,580 and I guess this German paper is about 193 00:08:09,400 --> 00:08:07,550 their implementation of this UN 194 00:08:12,520 --> 00:08:09,410 resolution so it ought to be interesting 195 00:08:15,520 --> 00:08:12,530 to see but pretty cool pretty cool news 196 00:08:18,700 --> 00:08:15,530 there did you get an idea of exactly 197 00:08:21,970 --> 00:08:18,710 when that will be released no the story 198 00:08:26,160 --> 00:08:21,980 doesn't really go into when it may be 199 00:08:30,310 --> 00:08:26,170 released at just that just recently the 200 00:08:33,909 --> 00:08:30,320 ruling had come down I see okay however 201 00:08:35,980 --> 00:08:33,919 andreas Muller did get other UFO FILES 202 00:08:37,510 --> 00:08:35,990 recently released and that we have a 203 00:08:40,450 --> 00:08:37,520 link to that story and that's another 204 00:08:43,480 --> 00:08:40,460 story he had given us in the past as 205 00:08:46,329 --> 00:08:43,490 well so of course we don't speak 206 00:08:48,820 --> 00:08:46,339 so we got a relay or rely on some of the 207 00:08:50,410 --> 00:08:48,830 points that he made on those files but 208 00:08:52,150 --> 00:08:50,420 there's some stuff that somewhat 209

in 264 00:11:21,340 --> 00:11:16,540 the past so yeah it's really exciting 265 00:11:23,230 --> 00:11:21,350 very exciting speaking of exciting it's 266 00:11:24,670 --> 00:11:23,240 the next exciting finding that I want to 267 00:11:27,580 --> 00:11:24,680 share with everybody which has to do 268 00:11:30,370 --> 00:11:27,590 with Bob Lazar so many of you probably 269 00:11:31,990 --> 00:11:30,380 know of course Bob Lazar is the alleged 270 00:11:35,050 --> 00:11:32,000 whistleblower who came out and said I 271 00:11:38,710 --> 00:11:35,060 worked at area 51 or specifically at 272 00:11:40,660 --> 00:11:38,720 this s4 facility near area 51 but he 273 00:11:43,200 --> 00:11:40,670 kind of fluent area 51 and was bused 274 00:11:47,470 --> 00:11:43,210 there and he says he back engineered 275 00:11:49,540 --> 00:11:47,480 alien technology well he says that he 276 00:11:52,270 --> 00:11:49,550 also worked at Los Alamos which is 277 00:11:56,350 --> 00:11:52,280 another secret kind of a place where 278 00:11:58,590 --> 00:11:56,360 secret projects are worked on and and he 279 00:12:01,090 --> 00:11:58,600 says he has degrees from Caltech and MIT 280 00:12:03,420 --> 00:12:01,100 well none of this could be for confirmed 281 00:12:06,760 --> 00:12:03,430 there's no teachers that have come or no 282 00:12:08,230 --> 00:12:06,770 students you know colleagues of his had 283 00:12:10,090 --> 00:12:08,240 said oh yeah I went to school with them 284 00:12:12,340 --> 00:12:10,100 nor has there been anybody to come 285 00:12:15,460 --> 00:12:12,350 forward and say yeah I work with him at 286 00:12:17,170 --> 00:12:15,470 Los Alamos now George Knapp who is an 287 00:12:19,870 --> 00:12:17,180 investigative journalist he's won 288 00:12:22,720 --> 00:12:19,880 something like a numerous Emmy Awards 289 00:12:25,900 --> 00:12:22,730 and this guy is a real-deal George Knapp 290 00:12:27,880 --> 00:12:25,910 I'm a huge fan of his if he says it it's 291 00:12:30,190 --> 00:12:27,890 real integrity and journalistic 292 00:12:32,650 --> 00:12:30,200 integrity is a big deal to him I believe 293 00:12:34,300 --> 00:12:32,660 what he has to say and he says he has 294 00:12:36,790 --> 00:12:34,310 spoken with people that worked with 295 00:12:37,870 --> 00:12:36,800 lazar at Los Alamos but they don't want 296 00:12:40,480 --> 00:12:37,880 to come forward because they're afraid 297 00:12:42,340 --> 00:12:40,490 of getting in trouble well Jeremy Korbel 298 00:12:45,760 --> 00:12:42,350 who you've had on the show who's had 299 00:12:48,730 --> 00:12:45,770 who's done some documentaries including 300 00:12:51,010 --> 00:12:48,740 on Bob Lazar he debated and he's had 301 00:12:54,250 --> 00:12:51,020 this online debate going on with Stanton 302 00:12:56,770 --> 00:12:54,260 Friedman but he just recently released 303 00:12:59,710 --> 00:12:56,780 just last weekend that oh when he was on 304 00:13:04,990 --> 00:12:59,720 coast-to-coast am with George Knapp that 305 00:13:08,390 --> 00:13:05,000 he found a physicist who worked at Los 306 00:13:11,030 --> 00:13:08,400 Alamos with Bob Lazar and this guy has 307 00:13:12,620 --> 00:13:11,040 willing to come forward in fact I wrote 308 00:13:15,470 --> 00:13:12,630 a story about it and he shared with me 309 00:13:19,280 --> 00:13:15,480 this link that talks about this guy he's 310 00:13:21,800 --> 00:13:19,290 dr. Robert Crangle and he is a physicist 311 00:13:24,260 --> 00:13:21,810 you know he's an impressive person 312 00:13:27,830 --> 00:13:24,270 that's why this magazine had done a 313 00:13:32,420 --> 00:13:27,840 story on him and some of his work but 314 00:13:34,370 --> 00:13:32,430 this guy has come forward and said that 315 00:13:36,620 --> 00:13:34,380 yeah I worked with Bob Lazar he says I 316 00:13:39,110 --> 00:13:36,630 know Bob Lazar was a physicist with the 317 00:13:40,550 --> 00:13:39,120 security clearance at Los Alamos one of 318 00:13:42,800 --> 00:13:40,560 the reasons he knows this is he was in 319 00:13:44,540 --> 00:13:42,810 me security meetings with Bob Lazar and 320 00:13:46,280 --> 00:13:44,550 these I guess are kind of routine 321 00:13:47,750 --> 00:13:46,290 meetings where people are told now 322 00:13:49,930 --> 00:13:47,760 remember you're working on secret 323 00:13:52,610 --> 00:13:49,940 projects who don't tell anybody about it 324 00:13:55,280 --> 00:13:52,620 apparently Bob Lazar was asleep at the 325 00:13:57,590 --> 00:13:55,290 meetings he did go out and tell people 326 00:13:59,210 --> 00:13:57,600 about it but he also says you know he 327 00:14:02,930 --> 00:13:59,220 just knew from being around there that 328 00:14:04,730 --> 00:14:02,940 Bob Lazar was a physicist so it doesn't 329 00:14:06,470 --> 00:14:04,740 prove that Bob Lazar was working on 330 00:14:08,570 --> 00:14:06,480 alien technology 331 00:14:11,120 --> 00:14:08,580 but what it does demonstrate is that he 332 00:14:15,770 --> 00:14:11,130 was a technician and arguably a 333 00:14:19,100 --> 00:14:15,780 scientist at Los Alamos well at least it 334 00:14:22,460 --> 00:14:19,110 helps bolster that claim and so the 335 00:14:25,670 --> 00:14:22,470 question is why has Los Alamos been 336 00:14:28,760 --> 00:14:25,680 denying that Bob Lazar worked at Los 337 00:14:33,020 --> 00:14:28,770 Alamos if he actually did so it's just 338 00:14:35,120 --> 00:14:33,030 more mystery it could be proving that 339 00:14:38,180 --> 00:14:35,130 Bob Lazar isn't lying at least in that 340 00:14:41,030 --> 00:14:38,190 you know Los Alamos is is trying to 341 00:14:43,460 --> 00:14:41,040 erase his existence or working with them 342 00:14:45,170 --> 00:14:43,470 there which is awfully mysterious and 343 00:14:47,750 --> 00:14:45,180 George Knapp makes another point a 344 00:14:49,790 --> 00:14:47,760 couple points that if we could prove he 345 00:14:53,030 --> 00:14:49,800 worked at Los Alamos who cares about his 346 00:14:54,950 --> 00:14:53,040 college degree his degrees because Knapp 347 00:14:57,470 --> 00:14:54,960 has not been able to confirm that he has 348 00:14:59,390 --> 00:14:57,480 these degrees that he claims to have and 349 00:15:01,790 --> 00:14:59,400 that if he was a technician at Los 350 00:15:05,260 --> 00:15:01,800 Alamos which is an important place then 351 00:15:08,630 --> 00:15:05,270 it's possible he did work at area 51 352 00:15:10,070 --> 00:15:08,640 yeah I'm still I got to tell you I'm 353 00:15:12,260 --> 00:15:10,080 gonna get some people mad at me and 354 00:15:15,230 --> 00:15:12,270 maybe you go for you a little bit but 355 00:15:16,730 --> 00:15:15,240 I'm still totally on the fence about Bob 356 00:15:20,330 --> 00:15:16,740 Lazar and now Matt's gonna get really 357 00:15:21,440 --> 00:15:20,340 mad at me in the message board but and 358 00:15:22,280 --> 00:15:21,450 here's the thing you know my 359 00:15:24,470 --> 00:15:22,290 brother-in-law 360 00:15:28,189 --> 00:15:24,480 a chemist at Los Alamos for many years 361 00:15:29,569 --> 00:15:28,199 and and you know there was it's you know 362 00:15:32,240 --> 00:15:29,579 I had a conversation with him he says 363 00:15:34,090 --> 00:15:32,250 you know there's nine to 13 thousand 364 00:15:36,819 --> 00:15:34,100 people working there at any given time 365 00:15:39,620 --> 00:15:36,829 including about six to eight hundred 366 00:15:41,090 --> 00:15:39,630 subcontractors that are working there 367 00:15:44,300 --> 00:15:41,100 there's hundreds and hundreds of 368 00:15:47,449 --> 00:15:44,310 buildings and he said you know for him 369 00:15:50,180 --> 00:15:47,459 to remember someone that he met that was 370 00:15:52,910 --> 00:15:50,190 not close friends with back in the 1980s 371 00:15:55,360 --> 00:15:52,920 is basically you know I want to say 372 00:15:58,519 --> 00:15:55,370 almost impossible like what would make 373 00:16:01,100 --> 00:15:58,529 Bob Lazar stand out he said if he was 374 00:16:02,689 --> 00:16:01,110 famous he was well-known or you know 375 00:16:04,340 --> 00:16:02,699 famous in his field or something like 376 00:16:07,730 --> 00:16:04,350 that yes of course you'd remember him 377 00:16:11,139 --> 00:16:07,740 but if he was not a standout person it 378 00:16:13,939 --> 00:16:11,149 would be really difficult to you know to 379 00:16:16,100 --> 00:16:13,949 remember him and and well how did this 380 00:16:18,379 --> 00:16:16,110 come up how did he all of a sudden say 381 00:16:21,290 --> 00:16:18,389 oh yeah I knew Bob Lazar and I know that 382 00:16:24,050 --> 00:16:21,300 some of it had to do with supposedly a 383 00:16:25,540 --> 00:16:24,060 friend had given him a tape but one of 384 00:16:28,430 --> 00:16:25,550 the things my brother-in-law said was 385 00:16:30,110 --> 00:16:28,440 simply ask Bob Lazar what division and 386 00:16:31,670 --> 00:16:30,120 group he was in and just leave it at 387 00:16:36,079 --> 00:16:31,680 that don't give him any hints just ask 388 00:16:39,379 --> 00:16:36,089 him that question no but anyway how dare 389 00:16:41,240 --> 00:16:39,389 you not believe all of this first you 390 00:16:43,759 --> 00:16:41,250 don't believe in the Roswell slides now 391 00:16:46,490 --> 00:16:43,769 this no I agree with you I'm a fence 392 00:16:48,319 --> 00:16:46,500 sitter on this thing too although I did 393 00:16:50,180 --> 00:16:48,329 totally disagree with that argument I 394 00:16:52,490 --> 00:16:50,190 think that's kind of silly I know people 395 00:16:55,280 --> 00:16:52,500 I worked with or I went to school with

hear this a lot fact most of the 444 00:18:57,550 --> 00:18:55,050 people that the federal government hires 445 00:19:00,110 --> 00:18:57,560 these days are contractors the 446 00:19:02,990 -->

impressive background 452 00:19:15,800 --> 00:19:13,380 and there's no reason that this person 453 00:19:18,710 --> 00:19:15,810 should be putting his reputation on the 454 00:19:24,110 --> 00:19:18,720 line for making statements like this so 455 00:19:26,030 --> 00:19:24,120 it's entirely possible almost it's still 456 00:19:28,160 --> 00:19:26,040 a big leap from working on 457

00:22:48,299 if if the UFO phenomenon is a real 519 00:22:53,180 --> 00:22:49,289 phenomenon 520 00:22:55,880 --> 00:22:53,190 it adds an immense new dimension to our 521 00:22:59,360 --> 00:22:55,890

00:26:53,070 he happened to go up into the air 602 00:26:59,659 --> 00:26:56,600 traffic control tower to visit with his 603 00:27:05,360 --> 00:26:59,669 friends who were were air traffic 604 00:27:08,090 --> 00:27:05,370 control operators and they were just 605 00:27:10,609 --> 00:27:08,100 standing up there gabbing I presume when 606 00:27:11,930 --> 00:27:10,619 they saw that object on the south side 607 00:27:14,930 --> 00:27:11,940 of the airport 608 00:27:16,700 --> 00:27:14,940 well now one of the things I wanted to 609 00:27:20,720 --> 00:27:16,710 talk to you about tonight was you were 610 00:27:23,720 --> 00:27:20,730 involved in incident Exeter's getting on 611 00:27:26,419 --> 00:27:23,730 that might be jumping too far ahead 612 00:27:27,139 --> 00:27:26,429 because I was back in 65 right that's 613 00:27:32,629 --> 00:27:27,149 correct 614 00:27:34,549 --> 00:27:32,639 September 3rd it occurred and I was 615 00:27:38,119 --> 00:27:34,559 involved in it through an act of 616 00:27:40,340 --> 00:27:38,129 serendipity I worked for a newspaper in 617 00:27:43,190 --> 00:27:40,350 southern New Hampshire at the time I 618 00:27:45,080 --> 00:27:43,200 lived in East Derry New Hampshire oh 619 00:27:47,330 --> 00:27:45,090 yeah most people are familiar with the 620 00:27:48,879 --> 00:27:47,340 state know where Derry Derry New 621 00:27:53,419 --> 00:27:48,889 Hampshire is popular place for 622 00:27:55,789 --> 00:27:53,429 politicians to go and talk now and I 623 00:28:00,799 --> 00:27:55,799 worked for the Derry news for about 624 00:28:04,279 --> 00:28:00,809 probably nine or ten months and somehow 625 00:28:07,810 --> 00:28:04,289 someway the editor and I got on the 626 00:28:13,159 --> 00:28:07,820 subject of UFOs and he was an absolute 627 00:28:18,049 --> 00:28:13,169 dyed-in-the-wool skeptic and in about 628 00:28:19,789 --> 00:28:18,059 the first week of september 1965 the 629 00:28:24,529 --> 00:28:19,799 year i graduated from high school in 630 00:28:26,389 --> 00:28:24,539 Derry we had a very dramatic sighting in 631 00:28:30,980 --> 00:28:26,399 Exeter it was covered by the Manchester 632 00:28:32,690 --> 00:28:30,990 union leader and my editor read that 633 00:28:35,600 --> 00:28:32,700 article and he came to me and he said 634 00:28:39,669 --> 00:28:35,610 Peter you're now a cub reporter I want 635 00:28:42,769 --> 00:28:39,679 you to go up to Exeter New Hampshire and 636 00:28:45,860 --> 00:28:42,779 get a story for us about this sighting 637 00:28:50,180 --> 00:28:45,870 so I made several trips up there I 638 00:28:54,139 --> 00:28:50,190 talked to the two police officers Hunt 639 00:28:55,549 --> 00:28:54,149 and Bertrand who had seen the object 640 00:28:58,669 --> 00:28:55,559 while they were standing together I 641 00:29:02,659 --> 00:28:58,679 talked to a hitchhiker a young 18 year 642 00:29:05,990 --> 00:29:02,669 old boy who had been chased by a disc 643 00:29:08,659 --> 00:29:06,000 out on a rural Highway near Kensington 644 00:29:12,259 --> 00:29:08,669 New Hampshire AG technically speaking 645 00:29:15,529 --> 00:29:12,269 the sighting occurred in Kensington not 646 00:29:19,850 --> 00:29:15,539 an Exeter Exeter police force was 647 00:29:23,629 --> 00:29:19,860 involved so I wrote a two-part article 648 00:29:25,850 --> 00:29:23,639 that was published in mid-september 1965 649 00:29:30,049 --> 00:29:25,860 and in 650 00:29:32,419 --> 00:29:30,059 the year 2000 actually wrote the piece 651 00:29:36,799 --> 00:29:32,429 on the incident for an incident of 652 00:29:42,529 --> 00:29:36,809 Exeter for Ronald DS story who edited 653 00:29:45,769 --> 00:29:42,539 the UFO encyclopedia wrote the piece 654 00:29:48,529 --> 00:29:45,779 about the incident have Exeter was a 655 00:29:51,769 --> 00:29:48,539 really very interesting very dramatic 656 00:29:55,100 --> 00:29:51,779 and that was my second experience with 657 00:29:56,960 --> 00:29:55,110 UFOs Wow can we for the listener out 658 00:29:59,750 --> 00:29:56,970 there that's not familiar with that case 659 00:30:01,700 --> 00:29:59,760 I think it's it's one of the it's one of 660 00:30:05,570 --> 00:30:01,710 the big cases well I think it's probably 661 00:30:07,759 --> 00:30:05,580 in the top 20 or 30 I would imagine as 662 00:30:10,730 --> 00:30:07,769 time goes on I don't know how you feel 663 00:30:12,350 --> 00:30:10,740 about that but yeah it was pretty 664 00:30:16,159 --> 00:30:12,360 dramatic and a lot of people were 665 00:30:18,289 --> 00:30:16,169 involved there it really started not in 666 00:30:20,299 --> 00:30:18,299 the wee hours of the morning when the 667 00:30:23,720 --> 00:30:20,309 hitch-hiker his name was Norman 668 00:30:26,590 --> 00:30:23,730 muscarello as I recall was chased by the 669 00:30:30,820 --> 00:30:26,600 object that the incident had started 670 00:30:34,480 --> 00:30:30,830 apparently about four hours earlier 671 00:30:37,940 --> 00:30:34,490 officer Bertrand was on patrol and he 672 00:30:41,779 --> 00:30:37,950 came upon a what they call a roundabout 673 00:30:44,389 --> 00:30:41,789 a traffic circle up there and as I 674 00:30:47,930 --> 00:30:44,399 remember there was a car that was parked 675 00:30:51,049 --> 00:30:47,940 in the center of the traffic circle 676 00:30:55,430 --> 00:30:51,059 which was very unusual cars don't go 677 00:30:58,220 --> 00:30:55,440 there it's it's grass so he investigated 678 00:31:00,740 --> 00:30:58,230 and he found a woman who was hunkered 679 00:31:04,519 --> 00:31:00,750 down on the floor of the backseat and 680 00:31:08,060 --> 00:31:04,529 her dog as I remember was hunkered down 681 00:31:10,490 --> 00:31:08,070 on the floor in the front seat and she 682 00:31:13,580 --> 00:31:10,500 was telling when he approached the car 683 00:31:17,060 --> 00:31:13,590 she started explaining to the officer 684 00:31:22,820 --> 00:31:17,070 that she had been chased by a disc from 685 00:31:24,200 --> 00:31:22,830 a nearby town and in desperation trying 686 00:31:27,710 --> 00:31:24,210 to get away from her she pulled up on 687 00:31:29,840 --> 00:31:27,720 the traffic island well he didn't know 688 00:31:33,620 --> 00:31:29,850 what to make of that but she was taken 689 00:31:35,810 --> 00:31:33,630 to the hospital as I recall and later 690 00:31:39,500 --> 00:31:35,820 that night about 2:00 or 2:30 in the 691 00:31:43,300 --> 00:31:39,510 morning he heard a call 692 00:31:46,280 --> 00:31:43,310 to all units from their headquarters in 693 00:31:49,430 --> 00:31:46,290 Exeter to the effect that a young man 694 00:31:53,470 --> 00:31:49,440 had just burst into the Exeter police 695 00:31:57,410 --> 00:31:53,480 force office and he was quite excited 696 00:32:00,830 --> 00:31:57,420 quite muddy obviously he'd been in a 697 00:32:03,310 --> 00:32:00,840 swamp or thicket or something like that 698 00:32:05,270 --> 00:32:03,320 which was had indeed been the case 699 00:32:08,180 --> 00:32:05,280 talking about how he had been 700 00:32:11,690 --> 00:32:08,190 hitchhiking on a rural road near 701 00:32:14,150 --> 00:32:11,700 Kensington and he had been approached by 702 00:32:17,210 --> 00:32:14,160 a saucer that scared him so badly 703 00:32:21,080 --> 00:32:17,220 started running in final desperation he 704 00:32:24,200 --> 00:32:21,090 jumped into swamp which was on one side 705 00:32:27,200 --> 00:32:24,210 of the road and hunkered down over under 706 00:32:30,440 --> 00:32:27,210 some bushes the object that had chased 707 00:32:33,410 --> 00:32:30,450 him pulled right above him and it 708 00:32:35,960 --> 00:32:33,420 rotated 90 degrees so it's now pointed 709 00:32:38,870 --> 00:32:35,970 the edge of the disc is pointed down at 710 00:32:41,540 --> 00:32:38,880 him and he said it hit its high beams he 711 00:32:45,080 --> 00:32:41,550 said he's never seen light as bright as 712 00:32:47,720 --> 00:32:45,090 that so I interviewed all of these 713 00:32:52,190 --> 00:32:47,730 people who were involved and I was left 714 00:32:54,650 --> 00:32:52,200 convinced that they had experienced 715 00:32:57,260 --> 00:32:54,660 something quite real and to them at the 716 00:33:00,860 --> 00:32:57,270 time quite frightening right what did 717 00:33:05,510 --> 00:33:00,870 you ever think of the the supposed 718 00:33:08,030 --> 00:33:05,520 debunking of a air plane refueler and 719 00:33:13,310 --> 00:33:08,040 did you ever hear that one oh I've heard 720 00:33:16,460 --> 00:33:13,320 a lot of attempts to debunk it or claim 721 00:33:19,400 --> 00:33:16,470 it wasn't true but I talked to the 722 00:33:23,680 --> 00:33:19,410 witnesses literally days after they had 723 00:33:26,690 --> 00:33:23,690 had their experience and one of the 724 00:33:30,140 --> 00:33:26,700 police officers officer Bertrand had 725 00:33:35,230 --> 00:33:30,150 been in the US Air Force and the notion 726 00:33:40,300 --> 00:33:35,240 that he would mistake refueling aircraft 727 00:33:43,790 --> 00:33:40,310 for a UFO is just utter nonsense so 728 00:33:47,990 --> 00:33:43,800 these these claims always come forward 729 00:33:50,900 --> 00:33:48,000 are always presented after a major event 730 00:33:53,360 --> 00:33:50,910 like that has occurred I suspect there's 731 00:33:56,980 --> 00:33:53,370 a concerted effort on the part of 732 00:33:59,840 --> 00:33:56,990 I suspect the government to discredit 733 00:34:01,930 --> 00:33:59,850 the case and if they can't discredit the 734 00:34:05,570 --> 00:34:01,940 case they'll try to discredit the people 735 00:34:07,610 --> 00:34:05,580 right Peter we're having just a little 736 00:34:09,710 --> 00:34:07,620 bit of sound issue I'm wondering if you 737 00:34:13,160 --> 00:34:09,720 could make sure that you're you're right 738 00:34:15,920 --> 00:34:13,170 up to your your phone you bet a little 739 00:34:20,000 --> 00:34:15,930 better that is better yes okay yeah 740 00:34:23,960 --> 00:34:20,010 let's up now let's talk about new fork 741 00:34:26,480 --> 00:34:23,970 is that the first this is a you you 742 00:34:28,700 --> 00:34:26,490 actually man basically most of the work 743 00:34:31,430 --> 00:34:28,710 on that don't you yeah I'm the only 744 00:34:34,040 --> 00:34:31,440 person here and I wanted to say that I 745 00:34:36,800 --> 00:34:34,050 was I can't believe you can do it I 746 00:34:39,800 --> 00:34:36,810 don't that's it's a it's been a major 747 00:34:42,590 --> 00:34:39,810 effort for sure and some days I wonder 748 00:34:46,760 --> 00:34:42,600 how I've done it and most days I wonder 749 00:34:49,370 --> 00:34:46,770 why I've done it but I think the 750 00:34:51,020 --> 00:34:49,380 principal driving force is what I 751 00:34:53,720 --> 00:34:51,030 mentioned earlier it's the greatest 752 00:34:56,000 --> 00:34:53,730 scientific question before mankind are 753 00:34:59,480 --> 00:34:56,010 we alone in this universe or are we not 754 00:35:02,840 --> 00:34:59,490 and clearly the answer to that question 755 00:35:05,410 --> 00:35:02,850 from my seat here at the national UFO 756 00:35:08,930 --> 00:35:05,420 Reporting Center is we are not alone and 757 00:35:11,440 --> 00:35:08,940 there is some fundamental relationship 758 00:35:13,940 --> 00:35:11,450 between these creatures that we presume 759 00:35:16,730 --> 00:35:13,950 navigate in these ships that are being 760 00:35:21,260 --> 00:35:16,740 reported to us that we are not yet aware 761 00:35:24,650 --> 00:35:21,270 of and if we can prove that they are 762 00:35:26,630 --> 00:35:24,660 there and maybe we can talk about my 763 00:35:30,230 --> 00:35:26,640 proposal for doing that later in the 764 00:35:32,000 --> 00:35:30,240 program sure using passive radar if we 765 00:35:34,100 --> 00:35:32,010 can prove they're there it's the 766 00:35:34,720 --> 00:35:34,110 greatest scientific discovery of all 767 00:35:41,060 --> 00:35:34,730 time 768 00:35:45,140 --> 00:35:41,070 show that this is such a passing 769 00:35:47,600 --> 00:35:45,150 phenomena that cannot be repeated it's 770 00:35:49,640 --> 00:35:47,610 it's there like you mentioned early on 771 00:35:52,520 --> 00:35:49,650 that sighting where there was a 10 772 00:35:54,950 --> 00:35:52,530 second involvement and what you saw and 773 00:35:58,640 --> 00:35:54,960 a lot of times that's all you have the 774 00:36:01,460 --> 00:35:58,650 other day yesterday I was in Boston and 775 00:36:03,050 --> 00:36:01,470 something caught my eye and in this guy 776 00:36:07,160 --> 00:36:03,060 and I went to get my phone and by the 777 00:36:09,589 --> 00:36:07,170 time it by the time I got my phone ready 778 00:36:11,630 --> 00:36:09,599 take a picture it was already gone but 779 00:36:13,460 --> 00:36:11,640 by the way it's kind of funny and ended 780 00:36:16,760 --> 00:36:13,470 up being a blimp and it was like going 781 00:36:18,109 --> 00:36:16,770 through the trees so um but I really you 782 00:36:21,170 --> 00:36:18,119 know something caught my eye and it 783 00:36:23,930 --> 00:36:21,180 looked different and not a lot of times 784 00:36:25,280 --> 00:36:23,940 you just don't have time to react yeah 785 00:36:28,460 --> 00:36:25,290 you know they're startling and you're 786 00:36:30,440 --> 00:36:28,470 like trying to find you know now we have 787 00:36:32,809 --> 00:36:30,450 we all walk around with cameras now 788 00:36:35,930 --> 00:36:32,819 basically on our phones or most a lot of 789 00:36:39,460 --> 00:36:35,940 people do but it's still - you know the 790 00:36:42,770 --> 00:36:39,470 when I had mice I had a sighting back in 791 00:36:44,450 --> 00:36:42,780 2006 that and by the way I'm gonna talk 792 00:36:46,849 --> 00:36:44,460 a little bit about this I had no idea 793 00:36:49,099 --> 00:36:46,859 that it could be reported I didn't even 794 00:36:52,670 --> 00:36:49,109 know that was an option when I had my 795 00:36:54,079 --> 00:36:52,680 sighting though really the last thing I 796 00:36:57,079 --> 00:36:54,089 would have thought of is grabbing a 797 00:37:00,980 --> 00:36:57,089 camera no I was just so mesmerised in 798 00:37:03,950 --> 00:37:00,990 like what the heck happens often happens 799 00:37:05,569 --> 00:37:03,960 people are so focused on this strange 800 00:37:08,059 --> 00:37:05,579 object that they're looking at before 801 00:37:10,940 --> 00:37:08,069 them that they don't even stop to think 802 00:37:15,589 --> 00:37:10,950 to get a photographic record of it right 803 00:37:16,940 --> 00:37:15,599 right and so about reporting UFOs like I 804 00:37:17,990 --> 00:37:16,950 just mentioned the only thing I could 805 00:37:19,940 --> 00:37:18,000 think of was called the police 806 00:37:21,859 --> 00:37:19,950 department which I did I got the 807 00:37:26,000 --> 00:37:21,869 runaround it was it was not a fun 808 00:37:28,970 --> 00:37:26,010 experience but I had no idea who to call 809 00:37:31,910 --> 00:37:28,980 but even with that going on 810 00:37:33,620 --> 00:37:31,920 I'm saying maybe I'm an I don't know if 811 00:37:36,079 --> 00:37:33,630 I'm would you consider an average person 812 00:37:39,859 --> 00:37:36,089 out there but um I was a person that had 813 00:37:42,640 --> 00:37:39,869 not seen anything before that happened 814 00:37:45,859 --> 00:37:42,650 I didn't know what to do and I think 815 00:37:47,870 --> 00:37:45,869 that has got to be a major percentage of 816 00:37:50,240 --> 00:37:47,880 people that have sightings they must 817 00:37:52,760 --> 00:37:50,250 come up with the same thing I don't know 818 00:37:54,289 --> 00:37:52,770 where to go with this and well some of 819 00:37:58,370 --> 00:37:54,299 them think to go online and take a look 820 00:38:00,799 --> 00:37:58,380 but I didn't yeah most 911 facilities 821 00:38:05,150 --> 00:38:00,809 across the country know about our car 822 00:38:07,039 --> 00:38:05,160 center so if a person dials 911 823 00:38:10,309 --> 00:38:07,049 telephone and goes to the local 824 00:38:13,910 --> 00:38:10,319 emergency response center they most of 825 00:38:17,089 --> 00:38:13,920 them perhaps all of them by now have our 826 00:38:19,940 --> 00:38:17,099 contact information both silently 827 00:38:20,600 --> 00:38:19,950 website as well as a hotline telephone 828 00:38:22,580 --> 00:38:20,610 number 829 00:38:25,250 --> 00:38:22,590 they should have given that to you I 830 00:38:28,540 --> 00:38:25,260 guess there may still be a few Luddites 831 00:38:33,320 --> 00:38:28,550 out there that don't have it some 832 00:38:36,260 --> 00:38:33,330 hangers on but most people if they call 833 00:38:38,780 --> 00:38:36,270 the local 9 1 1 facility will be given 834 00:38:43,070 --> 00:38:38,790 our number isn't that amazing that's 835 00:38:44,090 --> 00:38:43,080 great I think that's great and you know 836 00:38:46,550 --> 00:38:44,100 one of the things I was thinking about 837 00:38:48,890 --> 00:38:46,560 all these reports come in would you have 838 00:38:54,440 --> 00:38:48,900 a guess of how many per year that you 839 00:38:58,100 --> 00:38:54,450 handle yes I am posting probably about 840 00:39:01,310 --> 00:38:58,110 between 6,000 and 10,000 reports per 841 00:39:04,940 --> 00:39:01,320 year although we get vastly more than 842 00:39:07,280 --> 00:39:04,950 that most people do not want to submit a 843 00:39:10,190 --> 00:39:07,290 written report it's one of the hardest 844 00:39:13,670 --> 00:39:10,200 things and in this job is trying to get 845 00:39:16,010 --> 00:39:13,680 people to write down what they've seen 846 00:39:18,380 --> 00:39:16,020 most people just want to talk about it 847 00:39:20,810 --> 00:39:18,390 they want to call they'll chitchat for 848 00:39:23,660 --> 00:39:20,820 maybe 5 or 10 minutes most people want 849 00:39:25,520 --> 00:39:23,670 30 or 40 or 50 minutes to tell me the 850 00:39:28,640 --> 00:39:25,530 whole story and I try to stop them from 851 00:39:29,990 --> 00:39:28,650 doing that what I want people to do if 852 00:39:32,510 --> 00:39:30,000 they believe they've been witnessed 853 00:39:35,180 --> 00:39:32,520 through UFO is write out a detailed 854 00:39:38,350 --> 00:39:35,190 description of what it was they saw and 855 00:39:43,040 --> 00:39:38,360 submit it using our online report form 856 00:39:46,640 --> 00:39:43,050 so we get many more calls than we get 857 00:39:51,380 --> 00:39:46,650 reports and what people see on our 858 00:39:54,260 --> 00:39:51,390 website probably represents a third of 859 00:39:56,990 --> 00:39:54,270 what we receive so for example in the 860 00:40:00,190 --> 00:39:57,000 month of June we posted between five and 861 00:40:05,960 --> 00:40:00,200 six hundred reports to our website and 862 00:40:10,460 --> 00:40:05,970 that might represent all the thousand or 863 00:40:12,140 --> 00:40:10,470 1500 contacts we had and most of those 864 00:40:14,900 --> 00:40:12,150 people don't follow up with a report 865 00:40:17,540 --> 00:40:14,910 it's great tragedy and here's an 866 00:40:20,510 --> 00:40:17,550 interesting factoid a margin that you 867 00:40:23,810 --> 00:40:20,520 might find very interesting it is my 868 00:40:25,070 --> 00:40:23,820 estimate now after having done this job 869 00:40:29,810 --> 00:40:25,080 for 21 years 870 00:40:34,070 --> 00:40:29,820 it is my estimate that out of 20,000 or 871 00:40:37,610 --> 00:40:34,080 so Americans who witness what they think 872 00:40:40,940 --> 00:40:37,620 may have been a UFO only one out of 873 00:40:48,380 --> 00:40:40,950 20,000 will ever reported one out of 874 00:40:54,010 --> 00:40:48,390 20,000 my god I had no idea I I have 875 00:40:57,080 --> 00:40:54,020 been in rooms like unconferences where 876 00:40:59,630 --> 00:40:57,090 the speaker for instance Richard Dolan 877 00:41:01,550 --> 00:40:59,640 once said how many people think they 878 00:41:05,480 --> 00:41:01,560 have seen UFO and watch the hands and 879 00:41:08,630 --> 00:41:05,490 then how many people reported it and you 880 00:41:11,030 --> 00:41:08,640 know it's just just a few hands go up 881 00:41:13,340 --> 00:41:11,040 now and here's the thing about that if 882 00:41:16,370 --> 00:41:13,350 these people are at a convention about 883 00:41:17,960 --> 00:41:16,380 UFOs they're more likely to be the type 884 00:41:21,010 --> 00:41:17,970 of person that would have reported it 885 00:41:26,390 --> 00:41:21,020 than not so then you factor all that and 886 00:41:30,140 --> 00:41:26,400 and so if you do the math you come up 887 00:41:33,890 --> 00:41:30,150 with an enormous amount possible 888 00:41:39,230 --> 00:41:33,900 sightings per year I mean I'm having a 889 00:41:43,880 --> 00:41:39,240 ball um yes I agree and it's very 890 00:41:46,220 --> 00:41:43,890 frustrating to us who know that most of 891 00:41:50,030 --> 00:41:46,230 the reports are falling through the 892 00:41:53,150 --> 00:41:50,040 cracks it's very frustrating that we're 893 00:41:55,940 --> 00:41:53,160 not receiving those reports and I have 894 00:41:58,970 --> 00:41:55,950 never heard so many excuses in all my 895 00:42:02,410 --> 00:41:58,980 life as I've heard running a UFO hotline 896 00:42:05,090 --> 00:42:02,420 as to why people cannot write it down 897 00:42:07,160 --> 00:42:05,100 cannot write down the details of their 898 00:42:11,300 --> 00:42:07,170 sighting it's sort of disheartening 899 00:42:13,940 --> 00:42:11,310 actually but fortunately there's some 900 00:42:18,560 --> 00:42:13,950 diligent many diligent people out there 901 00:42:21,620 --> 00:42:18,570 enough so we're getting a fairly steady 902 00:42:24,140 --> 00:42:21,630 stream of high-quality reports from 903 00:42:25,970 --> 00:42:24,150 those relatively few people who are 904 00:42:28,550 --> 00:42:25,980 willing to write it down and report it 905 00:42:31,310 --> 00:42:28,560 if you had to guess why a person 906 00:42:34,190 --> 00:42:31,320 wouldn't go through with the report once 907 00:42:36,410 --> 00:42:34,200 they contacted you what why would you 908 00:42:38,360 --> 00:42:36,420 think that might be the possibility you 909 00:42:41,060 --> 00:42:38,370 know I don't think we have enough time 910 00:42:44,650 --> 00:42:41,070 time remaining in this program for me to 911 00:42:47,210 --> 00:42:44,660 cite all of the excuses that people have 912 00:42:50,240 --> 00:42:47,220 leveled at me 913 00:42:52,880 --> 00:42:50,250 it's it's just amazing a lot of people 914 00:42:55,850 --> 00:42:52,890 say well they're in a sensitive business 915 00:42:58,520 --> 00:42:55,860 I am governing about that they would 916 00:43:00,590 --> 00:42:58,530 pull their top-secret security clearance 917 00:43:04,850 --> 00:43:00,600 and they lose their job at the solid 918 00:43:06,800 --> 00:43:04,860 landfill something like that and on and 919 00:43:09,590 --> 00:43:06,810 on they don't want their family to know 920 00:43:12,980 --> 00:43:09,600 they don't want this person to know they 921 00:43:16,160 --> 00:43:12,990 it's just amazing the excuses that 922 00:43:17,990 --> 00:43:16,170 people will come up with that will get 923 00:43:19,910 --> 00:43:18,000 them off the hook of white writing just 924 00:43:22,310 --> 00:43:19,920 one or two or three paragraphs to 925 00:43:24,650 --> 00:43:22,320 describe what they saw well in a way I 926 00:43:26,870 --> 00:43:24,660 understand you know the ridicule factor 927 00:43:29,360 --> 00:43:26,880 is all part of that because you know 928 00:43:31,250 --> 00:43:29,370 just uh for instance going on further 929 00:43:33,590 --> 00:43:31,260 about the sighting I had I told one 930 00:43:35,330 --> 00:43:33,600 person that I worked with the the 931 00:43:39,140 --> 00:43:35,340 following in Monday or whatever it was 932 00:43:42,530 --> 00:43:39,150 and I said now don't tell anybody and 933 00:43:45,140 --> 00:43:42,540 you know it wasn't too long you know 934 00:43:46,930 --> 00:43:45,150 maybe a couple days later there was you 935 00:43:51,080 --> 00:43:46,940 know there was a lot of teasing going on 936 00:43:53,240 --> 00:43:51,090 mm-hmm well that's the advantage of 937 00:43:56,240 --> 00:43:53,250 having a national UFO Reporting Center 938 00:43:59,780 --> 00:43:56,250 and we do essentially the same thing 939 00:44:02,570 --> 00:43:59,790 that MUFON does they do a good job at 940 00:44:05,630 --> 00:44:02,580 collecting reports as well but that's 941 00:44:08,330 --> 00:44:05,640 where the guaranteed anonymity comes 942 00:44:11,240 --> 00:44:08,340 into play because if a person reports to 943 00:44:13,520 --> 00:44:11,250 our Center and we post the report nobody 944 00:44:15,710 --> 00:44:13,530 will ever know who had submitted the 945 00:44:18,550 --> 00:44:15,720 report so they don't have to worry about 946 00:44:21,590 --> 00:44:18,560 ridicule nobody will know who they are 947 00:44:23,900 --> 00:44:21,600 who have submitted the report to our 948 00:44:25,460 --> 00:44:23,910 Center you know we have a message up on 949 00:44:28,490 --> 00:44:25,470 the message board that kind of dovetails 950 00:44:30,770 --> 00:44:28,500 this and that is a Matt wants to know I 951 00:44:32,750 --> 00:44:30,780 wanted to know why that witness 952 00:44:35,720 --> 00:44:32,760 information wasn't up there and I 953 00:44:39,320 --> 00:44:35,730 realized that is you know with anonymity 954 00:44:42,620 --> 00:44:39,330 you can get truthful information and a 955 00:44:44,930 --> 00:44:42,630 lot of information out there however is 956 00:44:47,590 --> 00:44:44,940 there ever a point where someone wants 957 00:44:50,600 --> 00:44:47,600 to be contacted by someone who 958 00:44:52,730 --> 00:44:50,610 investigates a particular case or 959 00:44:56,030 --> 00:44:52,740 something like that you bet but most 960 00:44:58,370 --> 00:44:56,040 cases in my opinion usually do not 961 00:45:01,730 --> 00:44:58,380 warrant the amount of resource you have 962 00:45:04,190 --> 00:45:01,740 to dedicate to an investigation 963 00:45:08,240 --> 00:45:04,200 an object a distant object in the 964 00:45:12,650 --> 00:45:08,250 daytime or nighttime sky probably does 965 00:45:17,300 --> 00:45:12,660 very little good for an investigator to 966 00:45:19,070 --> 00:45:17,310 go out and interview the the witness if 967 00:45:21,740 --> 00:45:19,080 it's just a distant object we'll 968 00:45:25,099 --> 00:45:21,750 probably never know what it is or what 969 00:45:27,710 --> 00:45:25,109 it was what I encouraged people to do 970 00:45:31,040 --> 00:45:27,720 and they can be their own investigators 971 00:45:33,260 --> 00:45:31,050 and people we live in a society in which 972 00:45:35,329 --> 00:45:33,270 everybody expects somebody else to do 973 00:45:38,960 --> 00:45:35,339 the work that's why committees are so 974 00:45:42,829 --> 00:45:38,970 popular but in fact the witness can do a 975 00:45:45,920 --> 00:45:42,839 great deal by contacting the press radio 976 00:45:49,820 --> 00:45:45,930 television and newspapers to apprise 977 00:45:51,650 --> 00:45:49,830 them of that person sighting and to ask 978 00:45:54,560 --> 00:45:51,660 them if the person can get some 979 00:45:57,140 --> 00:45:54,570 publicity or if the news media would 980 00:45:58,490 --> 00:45:57,150 publicize it and encourage anybody else 981 00:46:01,570 --> 00:45:58,500 you might have seen the same thing to 982 00:46:04,900 --> 00:46:01,580 come forward but for some strange reason 983 00:46:08,450 --> 00:46:04,910 people hesitate to do that even though 984 00:46:11,570 --> 00:46:08,460 the press is often willing to impart 985 00:46:14,030 --> 00:46:11,580 anonymity to a witness I don't 986 00:46:17,599 --> 00:46:14,040 understand it in fact the young people 987 00:46:20,210 --> 00:46:17,609 are sort of interesting it's it's a bit 988 00:46:24,170 --> 00:46:20,220 distressing when I encourage them to 989 00:46:26,359 --> 00:46:24,180 contact the press more often than not in 990 00:46:31,099 --> 00:46:26,369 dealing with a person who's maybe 25 or 991 00:46:34,790 --> 00:46:31,109 younger they'll say who is that they 992 00:46:37,670 --> 00:46:34,800 don't know who the press is or are and I 993 00:46:39,740 --> 00:46:37,680 say well radio television and newspapers 994 00:46:42,730 --> 00:46:39,750 and they say well do you have any 995 00:46:45,829 --> 00:46:42,740 telephone numbers for them and I say no 996 00:46:48,290 --> 00:46:45,839 they're in your area look them up in the 997 00:46:49,849 --> 00:46:48,300 telephone book and apprise them of your 998 00:46:53,960 --> 00:46:49,859 sighting and see if you can get some 999 00:46:57,310 --> 00:46:53,970 publicity and almost invariably they do 1000 00:47:01,640 --> 00:46:57,320 not do that it's very strange 1001 00:47:05,329 --> 00:47:01,650 you know one thing I I work with almost 1002 00:47:07,880 --> 00:47:05,339 30 young people in a start-up I do a lot 1003 00:47:10,579 --> 00:47:07,890 of them are 25 or under most of them in 1004 00:47:14,870 --> 00:47:10,589 every single person there knows that I 1005 00:47:18,230 --> 00:47:14,880 do this show and no not one person 1006 00:47:20,000 --> 00:47:18,240 gives me our time about it and and that 1007 00:47:23,150 --> 00:47:20,010 some of them listen to it some may be 1008 00:47:25,250 --> 00:47:23,160 listening right now so good I think it's 1009 00:47:27,650 --> 00:47:25,260 a good thing that young people are you 1010 00:47:30,260 --> 00:47:27,660 know interested in this subject because 1011 00:47:33,680 --> 00:47:30,270 and this is going to segue into my next 1012 00:47:35,930 --> 00:47:33,690 question you know we need this to carry 1013 00:47:38,480 --> 00:47:35,940 on it's very important I believe the 1014 00:47:42,890 --> 00:47:38,490 same way you do but speaking of carrying 1015 00:47:45,100 --> 00:47:42,900 on with with all the work you do and 1016 00:47:48,740 --> 00:47:45,110 you're really totally totally dedicated 1017 00:47:52,160 --> 00:47:48,750 do you have a predecessor someone that 1018 00:47:54,410 --> 00:47:52,170 will pick up when you're ready to see 1019 00:47:57,980 --> 00:47:54,420 how down a little bit yeah 1020 00:48:00,020 --> 00:47:57,990 that's pretty well provided for that 1021 00:48:02,060 --> 00:48:00,030 eliminates the possibility of somebody 1022 00:48:06,950 --> 00:48:02,070 being able to eliminate the hotline by 1023 00:48:10,940 --> 00:48:06,960 eliminating me so that's we've made a 1024 00:48:13,460 --> 00:48:10,950 provision for that and the person is 1025 00:48:15,800 --> 00:48:13,470 aware of it and is willing to take it 1026 00:48:19,490 --> 00:48:15,810 over in the event that I'm not able to 1027 00:48:22,700 --> 00:48:19,500 do it and that's a good point I have an 1028 00:48:25,160 --> 00:48:22,710 immense amount of material most of all a 1029 00:48:29,560 --> 00:48:25,170 database that now has about a hundred 1030 00:48:33,080 --> 00:48:29,570 and eight thousand the entries in it and 1031 00:48:35,330 --> 00:48:33,090 that that work should be continued it's 1032 00:48:38,540 --> 00:48:35,340 far more important something far more 1033 00:48:42,380 --> 00:48:38,550 important than the welfare of one single 1034 00:48:45,680 --> 00:48:42,390 individual and so do you think this 1035 00:48:47,780 --> 00:48:45,690 person or people would have the same 1036 00:48:50,360 --> 00:48:47,790 dedication that you have 1037 00:48:52,010 --> 00:48:50,370 well once I started taking calls and 1038 00:48:56,360 --> 00:48:52,020 receiving reports I think they would 1039 00:49:00,320 --> 00:48:56,370 it's it's an addictive pastime if you're 1040 00:49:05,540 --> 00:49:00,330 interested in UFOs in the first place to 1041 00:49:07,700 --> 00:49:05,550 have free rein of the hotline is an 1042 00:49:10,550 --> 00:49:07,710 immense luxury because you see what's 1043 00:49:13,190 --> 00:49:10,560 going on not just across the United 1044 00:49:15,950 --> 00:49:13,200 States but around the world with respect 1045 00:49:17,990 --> 00:49:15,960 to the UFO phenomenon now one of the 1046 00:49:21,410 --> 00:49:18,000 things you know MUFON is another place 1047 00:49:24,260 --> 00:49:21,420 where people call in and you know give 1048 00:49:27,760 --> 00:49:24,270 reports those investigations and and all 1049 00:49:30,070 --> 00:49:27,770 that has there ever been any talk about 1050 00:49:32,800 --> 00:49:30,080 type of unity between different 1051 00:49:35,560 --> 00:49:32,810 organizations even internationally that 1052 00:49:38,560 --> 00:49:35,570 you're aware yes everybody wants all 1053 00:49:41,620 --> 00:49:38,570 these UFO organizations to unify and one 1054 00:49:44,440 --> 00:49:41,630 person wants control of it and to date 1055 00:49:49,020 --> 00:49:44,450 I've avoided that MUFON has actually 1056 00:49:53,260 --> 00:49:49,030 proposed that to me so that our 1057 00:49:54,940 --> 00:49:53,270 databases are merged but I've decided 1058 00:49:57,310 --> 00:49:54,950 that I really don't want to do that I 1059 00:50:00,160 --> 00:49:57,320 don't want to have worked for 21 years 1060 00:50:04,240 --> 00:50:00,170 only to give all my information away for 1061 00:50:08,740 --> 00:50:04,250 free so I think a little competition is 1062 00:50:13,390 --> 00:50:08,750 probably a good thing because if there 1063 00:50:17,080 --> 00:50:13,400 were one body that would controlled all 1064 00:50:20,620 --> 00:50:17,090 of the flow of information and that 1065 00:50:23,500 --> 00:50:20,630 entity decided to make a decision that 1066 00:50:26,170 --> 00:50:23,510 the contributors were not pleased with 1067 00:50:30,010 --> 00:50:26,180 it would end up it would be sort of the 1068 00:50:33,430 --> 00:50:30,020 Greek the Greek syndrome alluding to the 1069 00:50:36,430 --> 00:50:33,440 situation in Greece this week many of 1070 00:50:38,590 --> 00:50:36,440 them would want to withdraw mm-hmm so I 1071 00:50:42,580 --> 00:50:38,600 think a little competition is a good 1072 00:50:46,390 --> 00:50:42,590 idea and there enough UFO sightings and 1073 00:50:49,090 --> 00:50:46,400 sighting reports to keep all UFO 1074 00:50:52,960 --> 00:50:49,100 organizations plenty busy if we're 1075 00:50:55,930 --> 00:50:52,970 catching oh if my estimate is right that 1076 00:51:01,000 --> 00:50:55,940 only one out of 20,000 UFO reports has 1077 00:51:04,390 --> 00:51:01,010 ever ever reported by the witness then 1078 00:51:10,180 --> 00:51:04,400 there's plenty of work to be done still 1079 00:51:12,310 --> 00:51:10,190 and we done enough for many UFO 1080 00:51:13,750 --> 00:51:12,320 organizations is what I'm trying to say 1081 00:51:15,160 --> 00:51:13,760 mm-hmm 1082 00:51:17,580 --> 00:51:15,170 up on the message board we had a 1083 00:51:21,310 --> 00:51:17,590 question someone wanted to know 1084 00:51:25,120 --> 00:51:21,320 basically what your thoughts were of the 1085 00:51:26,830 --> 00:51:25,130 government if well it remains to be seen 1086 00:51:29,200 --> 00:51:26,840 whether the government's covering up I 1087 00:51:31,990 --> 00:51:29,210 think there's in my opinion it's a 1088 00:51:33,580 --> 00:51:32,000 possibility that there's some fragment 1089 00:51:36,220 --> 00:51:33,590 of the government at least that has 1090 00:51:38,410 --> 00:51:36,230 covered up in the past possibly still or 1091 00:51:40,630 --> 00:51:38,420 most likely still I would say because 1092 00:51:41,680 --> 00:51:40,640 you know there's still reports coming in 1093 00:51:44,440 --> 00:51:41,690 to the Air Force and that 1094 00:51:46,330 --> 00:51:44,450 just hush-hush but what do you think it 1095 00:51:48,070 --> 00:51:46,340 would take this is the question on the 1096 00:51:49,810 --> 00:51:48,080 message board what do you think it would 1097 00:51:52,990 --> 00:51:49,820 take for the government to finally admit 1098 00:51:54,640 --> 00:51:53,000 that these things are happening well I 1099 00:51:56,680 --> 00:51:54,650 think it's going to take an overt 1100 00:52:01,540 --> 00:51:56,690 display something like the Phoenix 1101 00:52:05,010 --> 00:52:01,550 lights back in 1997 March of 97 so that 1102 00:52:07,630 --> 00:52:05,020 the government's position has just made 1103 00:52:10,390 --> 00:52:07,640 extraneous they've been lying to the 1104 00:52:13,600 --> 00:52:10,400 American people about UFOs I believe 1105 00:52:15,760 --> 00:52:13,610 since the 1940s after you've been lined 1106 00:52:20,560 --> 00:52:15,770 for that length of time and a subject of 1107 00:52:22,630 --> 00:52:20,570 that gravity of that importance then 1108 00:52:27,330 --> 00:52:22,640 it's very difficult to do an about-face 1109 00:52:30,730 --> 00:52:27,340 and say well we've been lying to you for 1110 00:52:32,500 --> 00:52:30,740 67 years but now we're going to come 1111 00:52:35,380 --> 00:52:32,510 clean and tell you what's really going 1112 00:52:38,590 --> 00:52:35,390 on so they've painted themselves into a 1113 00:52:40,750 --> 00:52:38,600 corner and they're probably trying to 1114 00:52:44,770 --> 00:52:40,760 figure out what's what they're going to 1115 00:52:49,330 --> 00:52:44,780 do if there's a really dramatic overt 1116 00:52:52,420 --> 00:52:49,340 display of UFO presence in the 1117 00:52:55,330 --> 00:52:52,430 near-earth environment and in fact we're 1118 00:52:58,390 --> 00:52:55,340 getting a lot of reports that in my 1119 00:53:02,350 --> 00:52:58,400 opinion fall under that category a lot 1120 00:53:05,470 --> 00:53:02,360 of reports and the most interesting 1121 00:53:09,400 --> 00:53:05,480 phenomenon currently in my opinion is 1122 00:53:13,150 --> 00:53:09,410 the reports of displays of clusters of 1123 00:53:16,570 --> 00:53:13,160 red orange yellow amber and gold orbs or 1124 00:53:18,130 --> 00:53:16,580 fireballs call them what you will we 1125 00:53:19,570 --> 00:53:18,140 really don't have an adequate term 1126 00:53:23,320 --> 00:53:19,580 because we don't know what these things 1127 00:53:26,380 --> 00:53:23,330 are and we probably will not know until 1128 00:53:29,200 --> 00:53:26,390 we have a long-handled butterfly net 1129 00:53:30,790 --> 00:53:29,210 that allows us to reach up and snag one 1130 00:53:35,920 --> 00:53:30,800 of these things and bring it down to the 1131 00:53:38,710 --> 00:53:35,930 laboratory bench that the US government 1132 00:53:41,050 --> 00:53:38,720 is a strange bird in fact my greatest 1133 00:53:45,210 --> 00:53:41,060 concern is not the UFOs my greatest 1134 00:53:48,880 --> 00:53:45,220 concern is the possibility that our 1135 00:53:54,580 --> 00:53:48,890 governments are now coordinating their 1136 00:53:55,780 --> 00:53:54,590 activities with you with alien creatures 1137 00:53:58,600 --> 00:53:55,790 and when I look at what the US 1138 00:54:01,420 --> 00:53:58,610 government is now doing to the American 1139 00:54:03,070 --> 00:54:01,430 people instead of for the American 1140 00:54:05,650 --> 00:54:03,080 people which is what they should be 1141 00:54:09,670 --> 00:54:05,660 doing in my opinion I get very concerned 1142 00:54:12,660 --> 00:54:09,680 and some of the examples are the US 1143 00:54:14,830 --> 00:54:12,670 government seems dedicated to taking 1144 00:54:17,830 --> 00:54:14,840 firearms away from the American people 1145 00:54:19,690 --> 00:54:17,840 that's not their job of course under 1146 00:54:22,450 --> 00:54:19,700 article 6 paragraph 2 of the 1147 00:54:25,210 --> 00:54:22,460 Constitution any public servant who 1148 00:54:27,580 --> 00:54:25,220 takes an oath of office swears and 1149 00:54:31,270 --> 00:54:27,590 testifies to the effect that he's he or 1150 00:54:33,730 --> 00:54:31,280 she is going to defend and protect the 1151 00:54:36,520 --> 00:54:33,740 Constitution against all enemies foreign 1152 00:54:38,350 --> 00:54:36,530 and domestic and suddenly as soon as 1153 00:54:42,330 --> 00:54:38,360 they take office they're trying to 1154 00:54:47,050 --> 00:54:42,340 re-engineer the country and re-engineer 1155 00:54:50,530 --> 00:54:47,060 individual citizens lives so when I see 1156 00:54:51,550 --> 00:54:50,540 this take place and I ask myself why are 1157 00:54:54,400 --> 00:54:51,560 they doing that 1158 00:54:56,890 --> 00:54:54,410 and I bounce it off the UFO phenomenon 1159 00:55:00,610 --> 00:54:56,900 it makes me wonder what's going on in 1160 00:55:04,720 --> 00:55:00,620 Washington DC clearly those people know 1161 00:55:07,330 --> 00:55:04,730 about UFOs if I can with nothing more 1162 00:55:11,080 --> 00:55:07,340 than a telephone a computer a tape 1163 00:55:13,930 --> 00:55:11,090 recorder and a dedicated webmaster can 1164 00:55:17,200 --> 00:55:13,940 collect a hundred and eight UFO 108 1165 00:55:20,770 --> 00:55:17,210 thousand UFO reports and post them i 1166 00:55:23,350 --> 00:55:20,780 canna met just imagine how many the US 1167 00:55:25,150 --> 00:55:23,360 government must have in its files must 1168 00:55:27,520 --> 00:55:25,160 be in the millions you know that's right 1169 00:55:29,830 --> 00:55:27,530 that's that is while you're mentioning 1170 00:55:32,160 --> 00:55:29,840 this I mentioned earlier that I didn't 1171 00:55:34,780 --> 00:55:32,170 know who to call when I had my sighting 1172 00:55:36,430 --> 00:55:34,790 the Air Force is one of the things on my 1173 00:55:39,430 --> 00:55:36,440 mind like should I call the Air Force 1174 00:55:41,380 --> 00:55:39,440 and I imagine that a lot of people do a 1175 00:55:42,700 --> 00:55:41,390 question up on the message board and by 1176 00:55:44,830 --> 00:55:42,710 the way if you're listening live you can 1177 00:55:48,280 --> 00:55:44,840 jump in to the message board it's right 1178 00:55:52,300 --> 00:55:48,290 on podcast UFO we're taking calls in the 1179 00:55:56,050 --> 00:55:52,310 second second hour of the show and you 1180 00:55:58,930 --> 00:55:56,060 know this darn chatroom just goes away I 1181 00:56:02,010 --> 00:55:58,940 mean here we go what is your point of 1182 00:56:04,300 --> 00:56:02,020 view on the most effective way for 1183 00:56:06,730 --> 00:56:04,310 disclosure to take place other than 1184 00:56:08,000 --> 00:56:06,740 you're saying a massive sighting yeah 1185 00:56:10,490 --> 00:56:08,010 well 1186 00:56:12,410 --> 00:56:10,500 I've been over that ground before it's a 1187 00:56:15,770 --> 00:56:12,420 very good question that's very pertinent 1188 00:56:17,300 --> 00:56:15,780 and my response is very simple please 1189 00:56:20,030 --> 00:56:17,310 read the paper 1190 00:56:23,780 --> 00:56:20,040 that is posted to the homepage of the 1191 00:56:28,220 --> 00:56:23,790 national UFO Reporting Center the paper 1192 00:56:31,130 --> 00:56:28,230 in which I described the use of passive 1193 00:56:35,330 --> 00:56:31,140 radar for detecting the presence of UFOs 1194 00:56:38,000 --> 00:56:35,340 in the near-earth environment the the 1195 00:56:40,490 --> 00:56:38,010 paper was written in preparation for a 1196 00:56:45,770 --> 00:56:40,500 presentation at the MUFON symposium in 1197 00:56:49,010 --> 00:56:45,780 Denver in July of 2004 and the day MUFON 1198 00:56:52,190 --> 00:56:49,020 published the abstract the one paragraph 1199 00:56:54,320 --> 00:56:52,200 abstract of my paper I got a telephone 1200 00:56:56,180 --> 00:56:54,330 call from a senior officer at the 1201 00:56:59,930 --> 00:56:56,190 Central Intelligence Agency in 1202 00:57:03,650 --> 00:56:59,940 Washington DC he called from his office 1203 00:57:07,310 --> 00:57:03,660 it was during daylight hour during work 1204 00:57:10,730 --> 00:57:07,320 work hours and he said Mr Davenport I am 1205 00:57:12,830 --> 00:57:10,740 so-and-so he said I am a senior officer 1206 00:57:16,250 --> 00:57:12,840 at the Central Intelligence Agency I've 1207 00:57:19,310 --> 00:57:16,260 been with them for over two decades he 1208 00:57:22,040 --> 00:57:19,320 said to let you know how senior I am I 1209 00:57:26,210 --> 00:57:22,050 am the person who gives President Bush 1210 00:57:29,359 --> 00:57:26,220 his daily briefing every morning at 6:30 1211 00:57:32,330 --> 00:57:29,369 a.m. he said a retired colleague of mine 1212 00:57:32,990 --> 00:57:32,340 just sent me a copy of the abstract of 1213 00:57:36,349 --> 00:57:33,000 your paper 1214 00:57:39,260 --> 00:57:36,359 he said if you build the radar system 1215 00:57:42,050 --> 00:57:39,270 that you describe in your paper he said 1216 00:57:44,420 --> 00:57:42,060 you will be successful in answering the 1217 00:57:47,900 --> 00:57:44,430 question of whether UFOs are real or not 1218 00:57:50,270 --> 00:57:47,910 he didn't say he he chose his words very 1219 00:57:53,930 --> 00:57:50,280 carefully of course he didn't say you 1220 00:57:56,570 --> 00:57:53,940 will detect UFOs because that probably 1221 00:57:58,940 --> 00:57:56,580 would have had him violating a secrecy 1222 00:58:01,700 --> 00:57:58,950 oh he just said you will be successful 1223 00:58:03,380 --> 00:58:01,710 in answering the question of whether 1224 00:58:06,140 --> 00:58:03,390 UFOs are real or not 1225 00:58:08,810 --> 00:58:06,150 well we've had several conversations and 1226 00:58:11,030 --> 00:58:08,820 exchanged emails since that first 1227 00:58:15,260 --> 00:58:11,040 conversation that first conversation 1228 00:58:18,260 --> 00:58:15,270 occurred on the 6th of July 2004 this 1229 00:58:21,829 --> 00:58:18,270 guy is very interested in UFOs and he 1230 00:58:25,219 --> 00:58:21,839 described to me he's a PhD 1231 00:58:28,160 --> 00:58:25,229 a PhD in physics he described to me the 1232 00:58:31,459 --> 00:58:28,170 fact that during the first decade or two 1233 00:58:35,089 --> 00:58:31,469 of his work at the CIA his principal 1234 00:58:37,309 --> 00:58:35,099 responsibility was building passive 1235 00:58:40,609 --> 00:58:37,319 radar systems for the clandestine 1236 00:58:45,039 --> 00:58:40,619 detection of targets so that tells me 1237 00:58:48,229 --> 00:58:45,049 several things one that my proposal for 1238 00:58:52,309 --> 00:58:48,239 breaking down the barriers to UFO 1239 00:58:54,920 --> 00:58:52,319 secrecy has merit to it it also tells me 1240 00:58:57,319 --> 00:58:54,930 that the US government knows fully well 1241 00:58:59,749 --> 00:58:57,329 what's going on and they probably are 1242 00:59:04,729 --> 00:58:59,759 operating passive radar systems all the 1243 00:59:07,630 --> 00:59:04,739 time and see UFOs I suspect on a daily 1244 00:59:10,700 --> 00:59:07,640 basis hmm Wow 1245 00:59:14,749 --> 00:59:10,710 amazing so that is on your that's on the 1246 00:59:18,709 --> 00:59:14,759 new Fork website yes it's been there for 1247 00:59:21,829 --> 00:59:18,719 11 years and I rarely rarely get a 1248 00:59:26,839 --> 00:59:21,839 comment but I solved the problem we can 1249 00:59:28,579 --> 00:59:26,849 build a passive radar system and many 1250 00:59:31,039 --> 00:59:28,589 people probably are not familiar with 1251 00:59:34,519 --> 00:59:31,049 passive radar but if they go to our 1252 00:59:38,150 --> 00:59:34,529 homepage last Wednesday we updated the 1253 00:59:41,630 --> 00:59:38,160 homepage and I put some links and some 1254 00:59:44,599 --> 00:59:41,640 articles about passive radar on our 1255 00:59:48,979 --> 00:59:44,609 homepage and people can read about it 1256 00:59:52,219 --> 00:59:48,989 and they will see that human beings we 1257 00:59:55,729 --> 00:59:52,229 mere citizens and civilians are now 1258 00:59:59,779 --> 00:59:55,739 because of the developments in computers 1259 01:00:03,309 --> 00:59:59,789 and the global positioning system we are 1260 01:00:06,499 --> 01:00:03,319 now able to detect UFOs and track them 1261 01:00:09,160 --> 01:00:06,509 by ourselves we don't need to rely on 1262 01:00:11,989 --> 01:00:09,170 the government anymore to do that for us 1263 01:00:16,239 --> 01:00:11,999 well I think that's pretty exciting and 1264 01:00:18,859 --> 01:00:16,249 what I've been touting this system for 1265 01:00:19,670 --> 01:00:18,869 over 20 years I've been to four 1266 01:00:22,880 --> 01:00:19,680 billionaires 1267 01:00:25,910 --> 01:00:22,890 I've explained it to one and I've sent 1268 01:00:29,660 --> 01:00:25,920 letters to the others and we could build 1269 01:00:32,950 --> 01:00:29,670 this system out of pocket change in 1270 01:00:35,640 --> 01:00:32,960 their coffee fund and yet I have yet to 1271 01:00:38,640 --> 01:00:35,650 receive any funding 1272 01:00:41,550 --> 01:00:38,650 for my proposal yes it's very strange 1273 01:00:43,200 --> 01:00:41,560 yeah yep there's a few other people out 1274 01:00:45,360 --> 01:00:43,210 there with some ideas we can talk about 1275 01:01:24,060 --> 01:00:45,370 that a little bit in the second hour 1276 01:01:31,720 --> 01:01:27,640 okay we're an hour - and we're live with 1277 01:01:35,080 --> 01:01:31,730 Peter Davenport and in this hour again 1278 01:01:37,810 --> 01:01:35,090 we could take phone calls as well as you 1279 01:01:40,600 --> 01:01:37,820 can jump in the message board on the 1280 01:01:42,760 --> 01:01:40,610 message board at podcast UFO comm and 1281 01:01:45,970 --> 01:01:42,770 once again that phone number is six oh 1282 01:01:49,120 -->

used to be in 1299 01:02:29,830 --> 01:02:27,380 Seattle until nine years ago and then I 1300 01:02:32,830 --> 01:02:29,840 moved to a more rural part of the state 1301 01:02:35,650 --> 01:02:32,840 so I'm about 50 miles west of Spokane 1302 01:02:37,680 --> 01:02:35,660 now you know I took a trip up through 1303 01:02:41,320 --> 01:02:37,690 there a few years ago and it it's 1304 01:02:43,570

01:02:55,700 up all the way up through into Canada 1310 01:02:59,410 --> 01:02:57,560 and it was absolutely gorgeous really 1311 01:03:01,930 --> 01:02:59,420 had a wonderful time one of my favorite 1312 01:03:03,550 --> 01:03:01,940 areas of the country yeah oh it's a 1313 01:03:05,860 --> 01:03:03,560 beautiful place to live if I didn't live 1314 01:03:08,440 --> 01:03:05,870 here I would live in Vermont New 1315 01:03:11,110 --> 01:03:08,450 Hampshire or Maine I love those places 1316 01:03:14,110 --> 01:03:11,120 they're wonderful except for the winter 1317 01:03:17,170 --> 01:03:14,120 but that's another podcast I'm going to 1318 01:03:19,930 --> 01:03:17,180 be back there in September for my 50th 1319 01:03:22,570 --> 01:03:19,940 high school reunion and Derry oh really 1320 01:03:24,819 --> 01:03:22,580 Wow about looking forward to it yeah 1321 01:03:26,019 --> 01:03:24,829 how about that okay 1322 01:03:28,449 --> 01:03:26,029 you were talking you you're just 1323 01:03:30,969 --> 01:03:28,459 blocking your phone calls I think you 1324 01:03:32,979 --> 01:03:30,979 just said in between our our show break 1325 01:03:35,019 --> 01:03:32,989 and how many calls would you guess that 1326 01:03:37,779 --> 01:03:35,029 you get per day Oh 1327 01:03:40,779 --> 01:03:37,789 a typical day is we get somewhere 1328 01:03:43,749 --> 01:03:40,789 between 10 and 50 calls per day it's 1329 01:03:46,599 --> 01:03:43,759 highly variable and probably two-thirds 1330 01:03:51,039 --> 01:03:46,609 of those are ufo-related the others are 1331 01:03:53,469 --> 01:03:51,049 from radio talk show hosts or news 1332 01:03:58,150 --> 01:03:53,479 people who are seeking information or 1333 01:04:04,359 --> 01:03:58,160 personal calls so I would say on average 1334 01:04:07,150 --> 01:04:04,369 I get about 20 to 25 reports every day 1335 01:04:11,199 --> 01:04:07,160 over the telephone but as I mentioned 1336 01:04:13,599 --> 01:04:11,209 earlier I suspect it's not over a 1337 01:04:16,779 --> 01:04:13,609 quarter or a third of those people who 1338 01:04:20,440 --> 01:04:16,789 call and want to tell me all about their 1339 01:04:23,620 --> 01:04:20,450 sighting not over a quarter or a third 1340 01:04:25,449 --> 01:04:23,630 of those people who call follow up with 1341 01:04:26,349 --> 01:04:25,459 the written reports and we lose all that 1342 01:04:28,630 --> 01:04:26,359 information 1343 01:04:30,789 --> 01:04:28,640 I guess writing a paragraph or two has 1344 01:04:34,029 --> 01:04:30,799 become too difficult for most Americans 1345 01:04:34,989 --> 01:04:34,039 now do you sometimes almost feel like 1346 01:04:36,939 --> 01:04:34,999 writing it yourself 1347 01:04:39,849 --> 01:04:36,949 after you have the discussion with them 1348 01:04:41,709 --> 01:04:39,859 you just won't do it themselves I don't 1349 01:04:44,559 --> 01:04:41,719 want to do it if that's too much for 1350 01:04:48,249 --> 01:04:44,569 them I probably don't want their report 1351 01:04:48,999 --> 01:04:48,259 anyway yeah yeah I see you have to be 1352 01:04:53,049 --> 01:04:49,009 dedicated 1353 01:04:57,819 --> 01:04:53,059 outspoken aggressive determined resolute 1354 01:04:59,499 --> 01:04:57,829 and if they are not that I allow for the 1355 01:05:02,650 --> 01:04:59,509 possibility that their call may have 1356 01:05:05,589 --> 01:05:02,660 been a prank call and I'm sure that 1357 01:05:09,339 --> 01:05:05,599 happens Oh 60% 1358 01:05:11,949 --> 01:05:09,349 some days I asked mate 60% of the calls 1359 01:05:14,920 --> 01:05:11,959 or prank calls from young rude 1360 01:05:17,559 --> 01:05:14,930 oftentimes foul-mouthed Americans 1361 01:05:20,680 --> 01:05:17,569 generally males but not always all that 1362 01:05:23,049 --> 01:05:20,690 sad I'm glad that you you keep 1363 01:05:25,749 --> 01:05:23,059 persisting at doing this even through 1364 01:05:28,689 --> 01:05:25,759 all that that's still yeah well that's 1365 01:05:30,430 --> 01:05:28,699 it's not very pleasant I'd I don't know 1366 01:05:31,900 --> 01:05:30,440 what's wrong with young Americans 1367 01:05:37,299 --> 01:05:31,910 they're different from the way they were 1368 01:05:38,620 --> 01:05:37,309 when I was that age and they it's very 1369 01:05:41,410 --> 01:05:38,630 strange and tragic 1370 01:05:43,839 --> 01:05:41,420 they apparently don't have enough work 1371 01:05:46,569 --> 01:05:43,849 or enough responsibility in their lives 1372 01:05:49,109 --> 01:05:46,579 to keep them busy so their form of 1373 01:05:52,120 --> 01:05:49,119 recreation is to call somebody and 1374 01:05:58,480 --> 01:05:52,130 scream quadruple x-rated profanity 1375 01:06:02,980 --> 01:05:58,490 anthem boy very strange yeah now for 1376 01:06:06,759 --> 01:06:02,990 people do people actually send email to 1377 01:06:09,190 --> 01:06:06,769 you as well report that way they do but 1378 01:06:11,950 --> 01:06:09,200 it's a wasted effort what we ask people 1379 01:06:13,870 --> 01:06:11,960 to do if they've seen a UFO they're 1380 01:06:16,599 --> 01:06:13,880 welcome to call the hotline if it's been 1381 01:06:19,480 --> 01:06:16,609 within the last week or so but the the 1382 01:06:23,589 --> 01:06:19,490 telephone call is almost an extraneous 1383 01:06:27,609 --> 01:06:23,599 part of the process because it doesn't 1384 01:06:29,740 --> 01:06:27,619 serve to capture the information I often 1385 01:06:32,289 --> 01:06:29,750 equate it to sitting at a red light in 1386 01:06:35,079 --> 01:06:32,299 your powerful pickup truck and racing 1387 01:06:37,150 --> 01:06:35,089 the engine it makes you feel good it 1388 01:06:38,829 --> 01:06:37,160 sounds good it draws attention but it 1389 01:06:41,499 --> 01:06:38,839 doesn't do anything 1390 01:06:44,789 --> 01:06:41,509 the only kind of rapport that we can use 1391 01:06:48,789 --> 01:06:44,799 is a detailed carefully prepared 1392 01:06:51,730 --> 01:06:48,799 objective factual grammatically correct 1393 01:06:54,160 --> 01:06:51,740 statement that describes the the 1394 01:06:57,249 --> 01:06:54,170 sighting or the incident that the person 1395 01:06:59,499 --> 01:06:57,259 is reporting sufficient sufficient 1396 01:07:02,200 --> 01:06:59,509 detail so that another person reading 1397 01:07:05,049 --> 01:07:02,210 the report can understand clearly what 1398 01:07:07,029 --> 01:07:05,059 it all looked like to the original 1399 01:07:09,880 --> 01:07:07,039 witness that's what we asked people to 1400 01:07:14,380 --> 01:07:09,890 do and some days you think we're asking 1401 01:07:16,240 --> 01:07:14,390 for their firstborn but there are a lot 1402 01:07:18,640 --> 01:07:16,250 of people who nevertheless do follow 1403 01:07:20,680 --> 01:07:18,650 through and submit those reports and 1404 01:07:26,710 --> 01:07:20,690 those are the ones that you see on our 1405 01:07:28,170 --> 01:07:26,720 website at UFO Center calm now do you 1406 01:07:31,720 --> 01:07:28,180 ever send information out to 1407 01:07:33,940 --> 01:07:31,730 investigators oh yes okay so can you 1408 01:07:36,549 --> 01:07:33,950 talk about how that works yeah usually 1409 01:07:39,299 --> 01:07:36,559 we send it out to MUFON witness or a 1410 01:07:42,700 --> 01:07:39,309 MUFON investigators field investigators 1411 01:07:45,490 --> 01:07:42,710 we prefer I prefer to deal with them 1412 01:07:47,710 --> 01:07:45,500 because they're a known quantity they're 1413 01:07:49,930 --> 01:07:47,720 under supervision of the state director 1414 01:07:51,550 --> 01:07:49,940 who usually is a pretty professional 1415 01:07:54,670 --> 01:07:51,560 person 1416 01:07:58,410 --> 01:07:54,680 and also most of all we know that if we 1417 01:08:02,740 --> 01:07:58,420 hand a case off to a MUFON investigator 1418 01:08:07,390 --> 01:08:02,750 the the witness's anonymity is going to 1419 01:08:09,640 --> 01:08:07,400 be preserved that's one of their one of 1420 01:08:12,760 --> 01:08:09,650 their characteristics one of their 1421 01:08:15,910 --> 01:08:12,770 guarantees is just as the national UFO 1422 01:08:19,120 --> 01:08:15,920 Reporting Center guarantees and on a 1423 01:08:22,900 --> 01:08:19,130 MIDI so does MUFON so we know that the 1424 01:08:25,270 --> 01:08:22,910 witness is going to be protected so we 1425 01:08:30,160 --> 01:08:25,280 just had a case like this it's posted to 1426 01:08:31,750 --> 01:08:30,170 our website a case in West claims I 1427 01:08:34,720 --> 01:08:31,760 think it's West Plains or High Plains 1428 01:08:40,210 --> 01:08:34,730 Oregon there's a photo on our homepage 1429 01:08:42,610 --> 01:08:40,220 and Tom Bowden who's the state director 1430 01:08:45,640 --> 01:08:42,620 for MUFON contacted me shortly after we 1431 01:08:48,130 --> 01:08:45,650 posted that report and requested contact 1432 01:08:49,840 --> 01:08:48,140 information which I gave him and they're 1433 01:08:53,410 --> 01:08:49,850 in the process of investigating that 1434 01:08:56,170 --> 01:08:53,420 case now although again a point I made 1435 01:08:59,890 --> 01:08:56,180 earlier in this program is once an 1436 01:09:02,110 --> 01:08:59,900 object has been seen and is gone unless 1437 01:09:05,950 --> 01:09:02,120 it was on the ground and left marks 1438 01:09:07,690 --> 01:09:05,960 broken branches compression marks in the 1439 01:09:10,450 --> 01:09:07,700 ground and so on and so forth 1440 01:09:13,990 --> 01:09:10,460 it's my opinion that there's not much 1441 01:09:16,210 --> 01:09:14,000 that can be done particularly if you 1442 01:09:22,360 --> 01:09:16,220 wait more than four or five days after 1443 01:09:24,880 --> 01:09:22,370 the event if you place publicity in the 1444 01:09:28,780 --> 01:09:24,890 news media immediately after the event 1445 01:09:30,460 --> 01:09:28,790 you might be successful in causing other 1446 01:09:33,070 --> 01:09:30,470 people who've seen the same thing to 1447 01:09:37,000 --> 01:09:33,080 come forward but after four or five days 1448 01:09:38,829 --> 01:09:37,010 my opinion is that most people even if 1449 01:09:41,800 --> 01:09:38,839 they had a dramatic sighting will have 1450 01:09:43,329 --> 01:09:41,810 forgotten about it or will be unwilling 1451 01:09:46,360 --> 01:09:43,339 if they haven't already come forward 1452 01:09:48,640 --> 01:09:46,370 they'd probably be unwilling to come 1453 01:09:51,730 --> 01:09:48,650 forward in response to a request from 1454 01:09:54,340 --> 01:09:51,740 investigators but yeah we we deal with 1455 01:09:58,750 --> 01:09:54,350 MUFON investigators on a fairly routine 1456 01:10:01,480 --> 01:09:58,760 basis that's good now when did the 1457 01:10:04,390 --> 01:10:01,490 hotline itself start at the same time 1458 01:10:05,470 --> 01:10:04,400 that you began with the website you said 1459 01:10:08,380 --> 01:10:05,480 it was 21 years ago 1460 01:10:11,140 --> 01:10:08,390 well that's when I took it over from the 1461 01:10:15,150 --> 01:10:11,150 founder and my predecessor mr. Robert 1462 01:10:19,860 --> 01:10:15,160 Gribble he was a retired Seattle fireman 1463 01:10:23,350 --> 01:10:19,870 who set up the hotline in October of 1464 01:10:24,910 --> 01:10:23,360 1974 so we're coming up on our 41st 1465 01:10:31,510 --> 01:10:24,920 birthday here very soon 1466 01:10:33,970 --> 01:10:31,520 and he turned it over to me in I think 1467 01:10:36,580 --> 01:10:33,980 it was August of 1994 he'd done it for 1468 01:10:40,030 --> 01:10:36,590 20 years and I think he was pretty well 1469 01:10:43,060 --> 01:10:40,040 worn out and I after I've done it for 21 1470 01:10:45,790 --> 01:10:43,070 I understand why he would have been worn 1471 01:10:48,370 --> 01:10:45,800 out because it takes a great deal of 1472 01:10:53,050 --> 01:10:48,380 energy and a great deal of devotion and 1473 01:10:56,200 --> 01:10:53,060 dedication to keep the thing running and 1474 01:11:00,040 --> 01:10:56,210 a great deal of expense mm-hmm 1475 01:11:04,510 --> 01:11:00,050 it's run out of my pocket largely really 1476 01:11:08,860 --> 01:11:04,520 so but that's when it started was in 1477 01:11:10,630 --> 01:11:08,870 October of 1974 and ironically that's 1478 01:11:13,900 --> 01:11:10,640 just about the time I moved to Seattle 1479 01:11:16,150 --> 01:11:13,910 that has often made me wonder whether 1480 01:11:19,180 --> 01:11:16,160 there was something behind my moving to 1481 01:11:23,530 --> 01:11:19,190 Seattle that I'm not aware of that I 1482 01:11:26,280 --> 01:11:23,540 took it over in August of 1970 in 1994 1483 01:11:28,690 --> 01:11:26,290 and I've been doing it ever since a 1484 01:11:32,200 --> 01:11:28,700 question up on the message board how 1485 01:11:36,280 --> 01:11:32,210 confident were you that the person was 1486 01:11:39,250 --> 01:11:36,290 actually talking with Bush's CIA 1487 01:11:41,920 --> 01:11:39,260 briefing guy I'm sorry that sounds a 1488 01:11:44,950 --> 01:11:41,930 little convoluted I mean I think is yeah 1489 01:11:47,380 --> 01:11:44,960 he's the person probably alluding 1490 01:11:48,850 --> 01:11:47,390 alluding to the guy who called hang on 1491 01:11:52,450 --> 01:11:48,860 just a second Peter we have a call come 1492 01:11:55,240 --> 01:11:52,460 in mm-hmm caller thanks for calling 1493 01:12:00,700 --> 01:11:55,250 please identify yourself and give a 1494 01:12:03,820 --> 01:12:00,710 question I'm calling you 1495 01:12:06,610 --> 01:12:03,830 hi I'm calling to ask Peter question 1496 01:12:11,170 --> 01:12:06,620 regarding he said earlier on that he had 1497 01:12:13,090 --> 01:12:11,180 been in contact with CIA gentlemen and I 1498 01:12:16,480 --> 01:12:13,100 just want to know how he vetted the 1499 01:12:19,060 --> 01:12:16,490 gentlemen I guess he said he was Bush's 1500 01:12:21,240 --> 01:12:19,070 the guy who gave Bush the 1501 01:12:23,530 --> 01:12:21,250 daily briefings at 6:30 in the morning 1502 01:12:27,940 --> 01:12:23,540 yeah so I just wanna know how you've 1503 01:12:30,640 --> 01:12:27,950 added that gentleman how I what how you 1504 01:12:33,190 --> 01:12:30,650 vetted vetted him make sure that I was 1505 01:12:35,590 --> 01:12:33,200 this it turns out that this individual 1506 01:12:39,030 --> 01:12:35,600 who worked for the CIA is very very well 1507 01:12:41,530 --> 01:12:39,040 known in the CIA community and he has 1508 01:12:45,660 --> 01:12:41,540 lines of communication with a lot of 1509 01:12:47,830 --> 01:12:45,670 people in the CIA in the UFO community 1510 01:12:53,830 --> 01:12:47,840 I've talked with him a number of times 1511 01:12:57,610 --> 01:12:53,840 I've exchanged email with him he's he's 1512 01:13:00,460 --> 01:12:57,620 quite well known and I've told the story 1513 01:13:03,280 --> 01:13:00,470 to enough people who know him well I 1514 01:13:06,160 --> 01:13:03,290 know people who have worked for him and 1515 01:13:09,010 --> 01:13:06,170 they assure me that he has a very real 1516 01:13:14,280 --> 01:13:09,020 and very keen the interest in the CIA or 1517 01:13:17,680 --> 01:13:14,290 in the UFO phenomenon so there's there's 1518 01:13:20,800 --> 01:13:17,690 virtually no doubt in my mind but he was 1519 01:13:22,420 --> 01:13:20,810 who he said he was right right okay well 1520 01:13:25,450 --> 01:13:22,430 that's X I this I just wanted to make 1521 01:13:27,160 --> 01:13:25,460 sure that that point was that really 1522 01:13:29,470 --> 01:13:27,170 understood by the folks in the tack room 1523 01:13:32,410 --> 01:13:29,480 you know it's a very very good question 1524 01:13:35,170 --> 01:13:32,420 and please bear in mind I used to work 1525 01:13:37,000 --> 01:13:35,180 in military intelligence too I used to 1526 01:13:40,540 --> 01:13:37,010 be a Russian translator for the Army 1527 01:13:42,010 --> 01:13:40,550 Security Agency so I am sensitive to the 1528 01:13:45,310 --> 01:13:42,020 type of issue that the caller just 1529 01:13:50,650 --> 01:13:45,320 raised and would not allow myself if I 1530 01:13:54,940 --> 01:13:50,660 could help it to be deceived that easily 1531 01:13:56,860 --> 01:13:54,950 I require evidence in fact most of our 1532 01:13:59,740 --> 01:13:56,870 listeners would be quite surprised to 1533 01:14:02,230 --> 01:13:59,750 learn just how skeptical I am when 1534 01:14:05,140 --> 01:14:02,240 somebody calls me over the hotline or 1535 01:14:08,560 --> 01:14:05,150 sends me an email or emails a formal 1536 01:14:11,440 --> 01:14:08,570 report just how skeptical I am about 1537 01:14:14,350 --> 01:14:11,450 most reports people have to convince me 1538 01:14:16,270 --> 01:14:14,360 with their evidence most of all with 1539 01:14:19,150 --> 01:14:16,280 their behavior too you can tell a great 1540 01:14:20,980 --> 01:14:19,160 deal about a person just from that 1541 01:14:23,770 --> 01:14:20,990 person's voice over the telephone is 1542 01:14:29,590 --> 01:14:23,780 this a serious person or is this is not 1543 01:14:32,190 --> 01:14:29,600 a serious person and so I'm they have to 1544 01:14:33,570 --> 01:14:32,200 convince me that there's here 1545 01:14:36,300 --> 01:14:33,580 his person they're calling about a 1546 01:14:38,390 --> 01:14:36,310 serious sighting and so on and so forth 1547 01:14:41,520 --> 01:14:38,400 so the the caller raises a good point 1548 01:14:43,950 --> 01:14:41,530 well thank you okay well thanks Martin 1549 01:14:47,180 --> 01:14:43,960 just one last comment I just I've always 1550 01:14:50,340 --> 01:14:47,190 believed that within the UFO community 1551 01:14:53,970 --> 01:14:50,350 we ourselves must be better stewards 1552 01:14:57,000 --> 01:14:53,980 with our information and of course 1553 01:14:58,620 --> 01:14:57,010 that's proved out with various hosts 1554 01:15:01,710 --> 01:14:58,630 that have been perpetrated on your whole 1555 01:15:03,330 --> 01:15:01,720 community by not only also nevertheless 1556 01:15:06,150 --> 01:15:03,340 thanks gentlemen I appreciate the 1557 01:15:10,380 --> 01:15:06,160 answers thank you for the call and the 1558 01:15:14,280 --> 01:15:10,390 caller raises another good question and 1559 01:15:17,300 --> 01:15:14,290 that is how many people there may be who 1560 01:15:21,810 --> 01:15:17,310 call themselves ufologists whose 1561 01:15:24,600 --> 01:15:21,820 ultimate objective is really to deceive 1562 01:15:29,070 --> 01:15:24,610 people and to get people off the scent 1563 01:15:31,260 --> 01:15:29,080 of very good cases this I saw this in 1564 01:15:34,500 --> 01:15:31,270 the Phoenix lights case and I've seen it 1565 01:15:37,860 --> 01:15:34,510 several times with regard to the 1566 01:15:40,880 --> 01:15:37,870 sightings of these fireballs that I 1567 01:15:44,970 --> 01:15:40,890 alluded to earlier in the program people 1568 01:15:47,880 --> 01:15:44,980 sending me a message saying well you can 1569 01:15:50,190 --> 01:15:47,890 you can cancel that report because I 1570 01:15:53,640 --> 01:15:50,200 found the people who launched the 1571 01:15:57,080 --> 01:15:53,650 Chinese lanterns I was going to bring 1572 01:16:00,630 --> 01:15:57,090 that up yeah it's very tempting to 1573 01:16:02,280 --> 01:16:00,640 delete a case or to qualify a case so 1574 01:16:05,070 --> 01:16:02,290 people will know that it was Chinese 1575 01:16:08,400 --> 01:16:05,080 lanterns but I'm in the habit of going 1576 01:16:11,490 --> 01:16:08,410 back to that witness or the person who 1577 01:16:14,100 --> 01:16:11,500 supplied that information and asking for 1578 01:16:17,730 --> 01:16:14,110 the actual street address where the 1579 01:16:20,610 --> 01:16:17,740 launch was initiated or who did it or 1580 01:16:23,250 --> 01:16:20,620 how many were launched and usually those 1581 01:16:25,560 --> 01:16:23,260 people just go away they don't they 1582 01:16:28,920 --> 01:16:25,570 don't want to provide those details and 1583 01:16:30,570 --> 01:16:28,930 in many cases I assume they don't want 1584 01:16:33,600 --> 01:16:30,580 to provide the details because they 1585 01:16:36,690 --> 01:16:33,610 don't have the details their initial 1586 01:16:39,690 --> 01:16:36,700 report was a prank to try to get me off 1587 01:16:43,520 --> 01:16:39,700 the scent so you have to be very careful 1588 01:16:46,439 --> 01:16:43,530 in this field absolutely and speaking of 1589 01:16:49,650 --> 01:16:46,449 Chinese lanterns how much of a pain 1590 01:16:54,270 --> 01:16:49,660 in the butt has that been really not 1591 01:16:56,370 --> 01:16:54,280 very much when we get a report there are 1592 01:16:58,970 --> 01:16:56,380 several things that can be done while 1593 01:17:02,070 --> 01:16:58,980 we're on the telephone with the witness 1594 01:17:05,850 --> 01:17:02,080 most of all is to find out how large the 1595 01:17:08,160 --> 01:17:05,860 objects appear to be from the witness's 1596 01:17:10,080 --> 01:17:08,170 vantage point the other thing that we 1597 01:17:12,840 --> 01:17:10,090 encourage people to do before they 1598 01:17:15,330 --> 01:17:12,850 submit their written report using our 1599 01:17:17,220 --> 01:17:15,340 online report form is called the 1600 01:17:20,750 --> 01:17:17,230 national weather service or the FAA 1601 01:17:24,870 --> 01:17:20,760 flight service station for that area and 1602 01:17:27,720 --> 01:17:24,880 request data for the velocity and 1603 01:17:31,260 --> 01:17:27,730 direction of winds aloft at three six 1604 01:17:34,500 --> 01:17:31,270 and nine thousand feet and encourage the 1605 01:17:37,620 --> 01:17:34,510 the caller that the witness to include 1606 01:17:40,530 --> 01:17:37,630 that data with his report because what 1607 01:17:42,900 --> 01:17:40,540 that data can do it can resolve the 1608 01:17:45,630 --> 01:17:42,910 question of whether the objects were 1609 01:17:48,479 --> 01:17:45,640 drifting with the wind or whether they 1610 01:17:51,120 --> 01:17:48,489 were going some direction opposite the 1611 01:17:53,430 --> 01:17:51,130 wind if the latter is the case then they 1612 01:17:58,350 --> 01:17:53,440 must have been self-propelled because 1613 01:18:00,150 --> 01:17:58,360 obviously Chinese lanterns or any kind 1614 01:18:01,709 --> 01:18:00,160 of hot air balloon is going to drift 1615 01:18:05,370 --> 01:18:01,719 with the prevailing wind they're not 1616 01:18:08,340 --> 01:18:05,380 self-propelled right oh that's one thing 1617 01:18:13,260 --> 01:18:08,350 that I encourage anybody who sees one of 1618 01:18:14,970 --> 01:18:13,270 these displays to do in fact if people 1619 01:18:18,000 --> 01:18:14,980 would like to know if they'd like to 1620 01:18:19,860 --> 01:18:18,010 read some of the more dramatic cases on 1621 01:18:23,400 --> 01:18:19,870 our website we've posted a lot of them 1622 01:18:24,959 --> 01:18:23,410 on our home page so people can simply 1623 01:18:26,970 --> 01:18:24,969 click on the links that we've provided 1624 01:18:31,500 --> 01:18:26,980 on our home page and it will take them 1625 01:18:35,160 --> 01:18:31,510 to those reports but if they want to see 1626 01:18:39,720 --> 01:18:35,170 some interesting ones the first and 1627 01:18:42,300 --> 01:18:39,730 second of June 2012 there was a very 1628 01:18:45,030 --> 01:18:42,310 good one in st. Louis about two dozen 1629 01:18:48,870 --> 01:18:45,040 orange lights seen by a st. Louis police 1630 01:18:52,590 --> 01:18:48,880 officer the next day about at least a 1631 01:18:55,500 --> 01:18:52,600 dozen orange lights seen just just east 1632 01:18:58,800 --> 01:18:55,510 of Vancouver Washington by a group of 1633 01:19:00,280 --> 01:18:58,810 campers they probably had 50 or 100 1634 01:19:03,010 --> 01:19:00,290 campers who were watching 1635 01:19:05,020 --> 01:19:03,020 display of orange lights and they 1636 01:19:07,590 --> 01:19:05,030 suddenly the light suddenly changed 1637 01:19:10,720 --> 01:19:07,600 direction and streaked off to the north 1638 01:19:15,160 --> 01:19:10,730 another interesting case is was 1639 01:19:19,210 --> 01:19:15,170 submitted by a former US astronaut the 1640 01:19:22,510 --> 01:19:19,220 5th of July 2013 so just about two years 1641 01:19:26,140 --> 01:19:22,520 ago he had a dramatic sighting in Athens 1642 01:19:28,540 --> 01:19:26,150 Texas ten weeks after that a retired 1643 01:19:32,710 --> 01:19:28,550 Arizona Highway Patrol officer in 1644 01:19:35,070 --> 01:19:32,720 Glendale Arizona saw an estimated 150 to 1645 01:19:39,120 --> 01:19:35,080 200 of these objects 1646 01:19:41,650 --> 01:19:39,130 streaked across the sky in clusters so 1647 01:19:44,290 --> 01:19:41,660 there's an abundance of reports that 1648 01:19:47,410 --> 01:19:44,300 people can read for this phenomenon 1649 01:19:49,480 --> 01:19:47,420 should they be interested yes I I wanted 1650 01:19:52,630 --> 01:19:49,490 to talk to you about what you thought 1651 01:19:54,940 --> 01:19:52,640 was the growing craft sighting but 1652 01:19:56,230 --> 01:19:54,950 before that we've had this question come 1653 01:19:58,960 --> 01:19:56,240 up a number of times on the message 1654 01:20:01,390 --> 01:19:58,970 board and that is in your own opinion 1655 01:20:04,330 --> 01:20:01,400 what would you consider is the most 1656 01:20:08,050 --> 01:20:04,340 compelling sighting that has been 1657 01:20:10,210 --> 01:20:08,060 reported to Newport well two of them 1658 01:20:12,820 --> 01:20:10,220 come to mind immediately and one I've 1659 01:20:15,550 --> 01:20:12,830 alluded to already and that is the 1660 01:20:19,300 --> 01:20:15,560 Phoenix lights case it was Thursday 1661 01:20:22,570 --> 01:20:19,310 night the 13th of March 1997 1662 01:20:25,390 --> 01:20:22,580 so almost eighteen years ago I remember 1663 01:20:29,620 --> 01:20:25,400 the night that had occurred very vividly 1664 01:20:32,290 --> 01:20:29,630 clearly and what a lot of people may not 1665 01:20:36,640 --> 01:20:32,300 recognize a lot of our readers may not 1666 01:20:39,550 --> 01:20:36,650 recognize is it is my suspicion the 1667 01:20:41,890 --> 01:20:39,560 president William Jefferson Clinton who 1668 01:20:44,310 --> 01:20:41,900 was down in Florida on a golf trip down 1669 01:20:48,190 --> 01:20:44,320 there on the night of the Phoenix lights 1670 01:20:52,210 --> 01:20:48,200 may have injured his knee as a result of 1671 01:20:56,470 --> 01:20:52,220 that UFO sighting very very dramatic it 1672 01:21:00,090 --> 01:20:56,480 lasted about two hours and objects were 1673 01:21:05,310 --> 01:21:00,100 intercepted over the intersection of 1674 01:21:11,800 --> 01:21:08,860 the two pilots that intercepted one of 1675 01:21:13,610 --> 01:21:11,810 the objects may have chaperones the 1676 01:21:17,990 --> 01:21:13,620 president down 1677 01:21:20,630 --> 01:21:18,000 florida from washington DC that day they 1678 01:21:23,360 --> 01:21:20,640 were passed we have reason to believe 1679 01:21:25,940 --> 01:21:23,370 that they were part of the Air Force one 1680 01:21:30,200 --> 01:21:25,950 an Air Force two protection group which 1681 01:21:33,290 --> 01:21:30,210 is a very excuse me very exclusive group 1682 01:21:36,230 --> 01:21:33,300 of pilots who defend the president or 1683 01:21:39,710 --> 01:21:36,240 vice president or any dignitary when 1684 01:21:41,780 --> 01:21:39,720 they're flying being flown in Air Force 1685 01:21:45,110 --> 01:21:41,790 One or any other aircraft for that 1686 01:21:47,300 --> 01:21:45,120 matter so it's very interesting 1687 01:21:49,880 --> 01:21:47,310 most people who have not heard me 1688 01:21:54,250 --> 01:21:49,890 lecture on this point may not be aware 1689 01:21:56,660 --> 01:21:54,260 that on the 15th of March 1997 Saturday 1690 01:21:58,460 --> 01:21:56,670 President Clinton was on the front page 1691 01:22:03,260 --> 01:21:58,470 of the New York Times lying in a 1692 01:22:07,910 --> 01:22:03,270 hospital bed and his alleged injury was 1693 01:22:10,550 --> 01:22:07,920 either a ruse to allow his handlers to 1694 01:22:12,920 --> 01:22:10,560 get into a military safe area in 1695 01:22:16,400 --> 01:22:12,930 response to the events over Phoenix that 1696 01:22:18,950 --> 01:22:16,410 night or perhaps he was being rushed to 1697 01:22:21,110 --> 01:22:18,960 a waiting vehicle in a house where had 1698 01:22:23,720 --> 01:22:21,120 never been before and he may have been 1699 01:22:27,260 --> 01:22:23,730 injured as he was being taken down a 1700 01:22:29,420 --> 01:22:27,270 staircase or something like that but my 1701 01:22:33,140 --> 01:22:29,430 suspicion is President Clinton was 1702 01:22:35,300 --> 01:22:33,150 injured when he was being moved in 1703 01:22:40,520 --> 01:22:35,310 response to the declaration of a DEFCON 1704 01:22:43,130 --> 01:22:40,530 3 status defense condition 3 has anyone 1705 01:22:47,810 --> 01:22:43,140 ever been able to confirm that there was 1706 01:22:51,560 --> 01:22:47,820 this the DEFCON 3 but Bill Hamilton 1707 01:22:54,410 --> 01:22:51,570 claims he has done that and he wrote a 1708 01:22:57,380 --> 01:22:54,420 book about the Phoenix lights case I 1709 01:23:02,110 --> 01:22:57,390 have a copy of it I don't know that he's 1710 01:23:05,090 --> 01:23:02,120 confirmed it I actually once called the 1711 01:23:08,540 --> 01:23:05,100 office the US Air Force in the Pentagon 1712 01:23:11,060 --> 01:23:08,550 US Air Force office and requested that 1713 01:23:13,760 --> 01:23:11,070 information and I could hear the 1714 01:23:16,820 --> 01:23:13,770 laughter in the background really yeah 1715 01:23:18,880 --> 01:23:16,830 they said well we don't reveal that but 1716 01:23:22,220 --> 01:23:18,890 I've since received a communication from 1717 01:23:25,850 --> 01:23:22,230 a gentleman who's above a one-star 1718 01:23:27,800 --> 01:23:25,860 general that's all I can say who says he 1719 01:23:30,820 --> 01:23:27,810 knows fully well 1720 01:23:35,240 --> 01:23:30,830 about the defense condition 3 1721 01:23:38,930 --> 01:23:35,250 declaration because he when his office 1722 01:23:41,960 --> 01:23:38,940 was affected by that DEFCON 3 on the 1723 01:23:45,680 --> 01:23:41,970 13th of March 1997 he's a very 1724 01:23:49,150 --> 01:23:45,690 responsible guy and I'm inclined to 1725 01:23:53,660 --> 01:23:49,160 believe every word he says so I think I 1726 01:23:55,850 --> 01:23:53,670 think we're pretty I am pretty convinced 1727 01:23:59,330 --> 01:23:55,860 that a DEFCON 3 was declared that night 1728 01:24:01,100 --> 01:23:59,340 Wow well up on the message board we had 1729 01:24:03,020 --> 01:24:01,110 a number of people asked this same 1730 01:24:06,080 --> 01:24:03,030 question they wanted to know your 1731 01:24:10,120 --> 01:24:06,090 opinion of advanced night vision for 1732 01:24:14,000 --> 01:24:10,130 sighting UFOs I was just talking to a 1733 01:24:18,470 --> 01:24:14,010 young woman who does night vision tours 1734 01:24:20,290 --> 01:24:18,480 down in Sedona Arizona and I don't know 1735 01:24:22,880 --> 01:24:20,300 what people are seeing with night vision 1736 01:24:26,270 --> 01:24:22,890 binoculars or night vision devices I 1737 01:24:29,990 --> 01:24:26,280 should call them I've seen some rather 1738 01:24:32,930 --> 01:24:30,000 interesting footage that's captured with 1739 01:24:35,330 -->

01:28:07,250 --> 01:28:05,400 along those lines 1808 01:28:10,959 --> 01:28:07,260 there's really been a quite a dramatic 1809 01:28:13,340 --> 01:28:10,969 change in how people consume their news 1810 01:28:18,410 --> 01:28:13,350 yes and I'm not sure it's for the good 1811 01:28:20,620 --> 01:28:18,420 frankly mm-hmm a question also up on the 1812 01:28:24,110 --> 01:28:20,630 message board how many international 1813 01:28:26,560 --> 01:28:24,120 calls you get international calls oh we 1814 01:28:29,540 --> 01:28:26,570 got international calls almost every day 1815 01:28:32,000 --> 01:28:29,550 from around the world I've gotten them 1816 01:28:34,820 --> 01:28:32,010 from Thailand from South Africa from 1817 01:28:38,919 --> 01:28:34,830 South America all over Europe from the 1818 01:28:43,370 --> 01:28:38,929 UK pretty frequently and people can see 1819 01:28:46,610 --> 01:28:43,380 the it reports from other nations on our 1820 01:28:50,930 --> 01:28:46,620 website they can sort all of the reports 1821 01:28:54,709 --> 01:28:50,940 by state and by province and by country 1822 01:28:56,660 --> 01:28:54,719 and they can just look at the reports if 1823 01:28:59,150 --> 01:28:56,670 they have a particular interest in one 1824 01:29:02,030 --> 01:28:59,160 country they can see all of the reports 1825 01:29:04,970 --> 01:29:02,040 from that country right now I want to 1826 01:29:06,740 --> 01:29:04,980 talk something that comes to mind to me 1827 01:29:09,169 --> 01:29:06,750 you were mentioned the clusters of 1828 01:29:12,200 --> 01:29:09,179 lights and things up you know the orbs 1829 01:29:14,930 --> 01:29:12,210 or whatever it is that people are seeing 1830 01:29:17,300 --> 01:29:14,940 and we had a guest on I think about two 1831 01:29:19,669 --> 01:29:17,310 months ago that said he was he wrote a 1832 01:29:22,160 --> 01:29:19,679 book on orange orbs I think that's what 1833 01:29:23,720 --> 01:29:22,170 it was about but it's part of MUFON is 1834 01:29:26,000 --> 01:29:23,730 actually doing some separate 1835 01:29:28,490 --> 01:29:26,010 investigation that I guess he's involved 1836 01:29:31,370 --> 01:29:28,500 and on that but I also want to talk 1837 01:29:34,430 --> 01:29:31,380 about what other different types of 1838 01:29:37,520 --> 01:29:34,440 crafts that get reported you hear I hear 1839 01:29:38,410 --> 01:29:37,530 a lot about the triangles and that that 1840 01:29:42,080 --> 01:29:38,420 intrigues me 1841 01:29:44,510 --> 01:29:42,090 you know the triangle ones the the disks 1842 01:29:48,260 --> 01:29:44,520 are not seen that's what I saw actually 1843 01:29:50,450 --> 01:29:48,270 but are not seen quite as often or am I 1844 01:29:55,430 --> 01:29:50,460 wrong about that no I think you're right 1845 01:29:58,070 --> 01:29:55,440 in fact if you haven't already had David 1846 01:29:59,479 --> 01:29:58,080 Marr Laurent as a guest well I am oh you 1847 01:30:02,570 --> 01:29:59,489 have he's wonderful 1848 01:30:05,870 --> 01:30:02,580 yeah here's a great researcher a great 1849 01:30:08,720 --> 01:30:05,880 writer as I speak I'm holding I just 1850 01:30:10,729 --> 01:30:08,730 dropped his book trying 1851 01:30:15,290 --> 01:30:10,739 are UFO's an estimate of the situation 1852 01:30:19,010 --> 01:30:15,300 and is to be commended for having made 1853 01:30:21,200 --> 01:30:19,020 the observation that really the use of 1854 01:30:24,320 --> 01:30:21,210 the term flying saucer is almost a 1855 01:30:28,220 --> 01:30:24,330 misnomer because when he invited me to 1856 01:30:31,040 --> 01:30:28,230 look at my data to see how many of the 1857 01:30:33,500 --> 01:30:31,050 reports in our database were triangles 1858 01:30:37,190 --> 01:30:33,510 versus disks or lights or other things 1859 01:30:39,950 --> 01:30:37,200 like that two-thirds of the cases were 1860 01:30:45,020 --> 01:30:39,960 triangular shaped they were wedge shapes 1861 01:30:49,970 --> 01:30:45,030 or or triangles or things smacking of 1862 01:30:52,130 --> 01:30:49,980 some kind of triangular formation and it 1863 01:30:55,910 --> 01:30:52,140 appears that what we should have done 1864 01:30:58,550 --> 01:30:55,920 back on the 24th of June 1947 when Ken 1865 01:31:01,070 --> 01:30:58,560 Arnold made his fateful flight over the 1866 01:31:05,090 --> 01:31:01,080 Cascade Mountains we should have coined 1867 01:31:07,430 --> 01:31:05,100 the term unidentified flying triangles 1868 01:31:09,280 --> 01:31:07,440 instead of unidentified flying objects 1869 01:31:12,680 --> 01:31:09,290 because most of them are triangles 1870 01:31:16,910 --> 01:31:12,690 ironically what Ken Arnold saw back in 1871 01:31:19,520 --> 01:31:16,920 June of 1947 really were not discs at 1872 01:31:24,680 --> 01:31:19,530 all they were sort of a scimitar shaped 1873 01:31:27,650 --> 01:31:24,690 object almost a triangle so we come up 1874 01:31:31,010 --> 01:31:27,660 with UFO by accident I'm afraid for 1875 01:31:33,560 --> 01:31:31,020 flying saucer by accident certainly I 1876 01:31:36,620 --> 01:31:33,570 was kind of surprised to hear that 1877 01:31:39,560 --> 01:31:36,630 how early some of the triangles have 1878 01:31:42,200 --> 01:31:39,570 been seen going there are some sightings 1879 01:31:45,080 --> 01:31:42,210 all the way back to the late 1800s up or 1880 01:31:46,300 --> 01:31:45,090 something was reported back young I'm 1881 01:31:49,520 --> 01:31:46,310 not surprised 1882 01:31:53,150 --> 01:31:49,530 they appear to be the most frequently 1883 01:31:56,350 --> 01:31:53,160 observed type of craft or type of object 1884 01:32:00,380 --> 01:31:56,360 that is seen and reported as a UFO n-- 1885 01:32:04,090 --> 01:32:00,390 you're commenting on that takes me back 1886 01:32:07,370 --> 01:32:04,100 to the Phoenix lights event for a moment 1887 01:32:10,070 --> 01:32:07,380 the night of the event as I mentioned 1888 01:32:12,130 --> 01:32:10,080 earlier one of the objects at least one 1889 01:32:13,750 --> 01:32:12,140 of the objects was intercepted by two 1890 01:32:17,540 --> 01:32:13,760 f-15cs 1891 01:32:20,600 --> 01:32:17,550 see model jet fighters they were armed 1892 01:32:22,089 --> 01:32:20,610 to the teeth they also had according to 1893 01:32:25,740 --> 01:32:22,099 the one witness and Aaron 1894 01:32:28,720 --> 01:32:25,750 who participated in the in the intercept 1895 01:32:31,600 --> 01:32:28,730 they have mounted under their starboard 1896 01:32:35,229 --> 01:32:31,610 wing what's known as a lantern - pod 1897 01:32:37,149 --> 01:32:35,239 it's a pod for night imaging and 1898 01:32:41,410 --> 01:32:37,159 navigation very sensitive very 1899 01:32:43,899 --> 01:32:41,420 sophisticated they have a magnifying 1900 01:32:46,919 --> 01:32:43,909 device in the nose of the pod that 1901 01:32:49,540 --> 01:32:46,929 allows the pilot to reach out and 1902 01:32:52,709 --> 01:32:49,550 magnify a target so you can see it 1903 01:32:56,680 --> 01:32:52,719 visually and get positive identification 1904 01:32:59,410 --> 01:32:56,690 this is what makes us convinced that 1905 01:33:01,660 --> 01:32:59,420 those two aircraft had been flying with 1906 01:33:04,569 --> 01:33:01,670 Air Force One and therefore her Air 1907 01:33:07,270 --> 01:33:04,579 Force one earlier that day but the 1908 01:33:09,640 --> 01:33:07,280 object that the lead pilot intercepted 1909 01:33:12,310 --> 01:33:09,650 over Camelback Mountain which is about 1910 01:33:16,479 --> 01:33:12,320 three or four miles north of Sky Harbor 1911 01:33:19,750 --> 01:33:16,489 Airport was we've done the trigonometry 1912 01:33:22,540 --> 01:33:19,760 it was not less than 8,000 feet above 1913 01:33:24,879 --> 01:33:22,550 ground level and it's subtended an arc 1914 01:33:27,280 --> 01:33:24,889 when viewed from the ground of 135 1915 01:33:30,459 --> 01:33:27,290 degrees anybody who's familiar with 1916 01:33:32,859 --> 01:33:30,469 trigonometry will recognize what I'm 1917 01:33:36,550 --> 01:33:32,869 talking about and can easily do the 1918 01:33:39,419 --> 01:33:36,560 calculation that craft that was 1919 01:33:44,950 --> 01:33:39,429 intercepted by that pilot was not less 1920 01:33:48,069 --> 01:33:44,960 than 7.4 statute miles and with seven 1921 01:33:51,100 --> 01:33:48,079 point form statute miles from wingtip to 1922 01:33:53,620 --> 01:33:51,110 wingtip oh my goodness and that's why 1923 01:33:56,589 --> 01:33:53,630 the government probably panicked they 1924 01:34:00,700 --> 01:33:56,599 thought then the landing had probably 1925 01:34:03,580 --> 01:34:00,710 started and that's what induced the you 1926 01:34:07,180 --> 01:34:03,590 I presume it was the US Air Force to 1927 01:34:09,430 --> 01:34:07,190 declare a defense condition 3 Wow I 1928 01:34:13,149 --> 01:34:09,440 never heard that part of it now from 1929 01:34:14,770 --> 01:34:13,159 what I understand this has just bits and 1930 01:34:18,510 --> 01:34:14,780 pieces that I heard but that particular 1931 01:34:22,359 --> 01:34:18,520 pilot was absolutely scared to death 1932 01:34:24,339 --> 01:34:22,369 yeah in fact he was pretty upset he 1933 01:34:27,250 --> 01:34:24,349 didn't know what he had intercepted he 1934 01:34:30,700 --> 01:34:27,260 reported to his ground crew that as he 1935 01:34:32,470 --> 01:34:30,710 sat in the cockpit of his f15 and he was 1936 01:34:35,980 --> 01:34:32,480 streaking to the south towards this 1937 01:34:38,830 --> 01:34:35,990 object the left-hand wing tip of the 1938 01:34:41,410 --> 01:34:38,840 was visible at his 9 o'clock position 1939 01:34:44,320 --> 01:34:41,420 that is out the left-hand side of his 1940 01:34:47,290 --> 01:34:44,330 canopy the right-hand wingtip of the 1941 01:34:50,050 --> 01:34:47,300 craft that he was intercepting was at 1942 01:34:52,150 --> 01:34:50,060 his 3 o'clock position so the object 1943 01:34:54,880 --> 01:34:52,160 that he is flying towards no doubt its 1944 01:34:58,030 --> 01:34:54,890 closing velocity at many hundreds of 1945 01:35:01,600 --> 01:34:58,040 knots filled a hundred and eighty 1946 01:35:04,330 --> 01:35:01,610 degrees of his windscreen and canopy and 1947 01:35:07,120 --> 01:35:04,340 I presume that was pretty upsetting to a 1948 01:35:10,210 --> 01:35:07,130 seasoned fighter pilot to realize how 1949 01:35:13,180 --> 01:35:10,220 big the object was and it takes me to 1950 01:35:18,330 --> 01:35:13,190 the incident just over a year ago March 1951 01:35:22,830 --> 01:35:18,340 of last year when the Malaysian triple7 1952 01:35:26,740 --> 01:35:22,840 disappeared over in the vicinity of 1953 01:35:28,840 --> 01:35:26,750 Indonesia and the Pacific Ocean many 1954 01:35:33,610 --> 01:35:28,850 people have asked me well how could you 1955 01:35:37,510 --> 01:35:33,620 how could you hide triple7 in a UFO well 1956 01:35:40,810 --> 01:35:37,520 if the UFOs are as big as the ones that 1957 01:35:44,440 --> 01:35:40,820 were over Phoenix on the 13th of March 1958 01:35:46,800 --> 01:35:44,450 1997 you could hide a triple seven in a 1959 01:35:50,410 --> 01:35:46,810 corner of the ashtray of one of those 1960 01:35:53,680 --> 01:35:50,420 craft and you'd have a hard time finding 1961 01:35:56,260 --> 01:35:53,690 it again you know so we're dealing with 1962 01:35:59,920 --> 01:35:56,270 very sophisticated and in some cases 1963 01:36:01,930 --> 01:35:59,930 very large craft you know that's to me I 1964 01:36:06,250 --> 01:36:01,940 think you know we talked earlier earlier 1965 01:36:08,050 --> 01:36:06,260 and I mentioned I thought incident at 1966 01:36:11,860 --> 01:36:08,060 Exeter was one of the you know in the 1967 01:36:14,620 --> 01:36:11,870 top 20 or 30 I think I consider Phoenix 1968 01:36:17,620 --> 01:36:14,630 like this is just again my own opinion I 1969 01:36:21,940 --> 01:36:17,630 would say within the top 5 of UFO 1970 01:36:24,610 --> 01:36:21,950 sightings of all time what I yeah and in 1971 01:36:26,080 --> 01:36:24,620 fact I never did finish my discussion of 1972 01:36:30,040 --> 01:36:26,090 the Phoenix like you asked me for I 1973 01:36:32,140 --> 01:36:30,050 think the two leading cases and I cited 1974 01:36:34,930 --> 01:36:32,150 the Phoenix lights the other one that I 1975 01:36:39,430 --> 01:36:34,940 am very interested in is the Travis 1976 01:36:41,770 --> 01:36:39,440 Walton case of November 5th 1975 I feel 1977 01:36:44,980 --> 01:36:41,780 like no Travis quite well I trust him 1978 01:36:49,570 --> 01:36:44,990 implicitly and it's important to keep in 1979 01:36:55,480 --> 01:36:49,580 mind that he was he was gunned down by 1980 01:36:58,210 --> 01:36:55,490 a saucer before six witnesses and he was 1981 01:37:01,630 --> 01:36:58,220 gone and for five from the subsequent 1982 01:37:04,600 --> 01:37:01,640 five days that's pretty dramatic mm-hmm 1983 01:37:07,720 --> 01:37:04,610 and another one I would cite along 1984 01:37:13,210 --> 01:37:07,730 similar lines is the very strange and 1985 01:37:16,150 --> 01:37:13,220 tragic death of mr. Todd C's back in 1986 01:37:20,170 --> 01:37:16,160 August of 2002 it was Sunday August 4th 1987 01:37:22,240 --> 01:37:20,180 2002 he was seen being taken up into a 1988 01:37:25,690 --> 01:37:22,250 saucer in Northumberland County 1989 01:37:29,290 --> 01:37:25,700 Pennsylvania and it took the search 1990 01:37:32,980 --> 01:37:29,300 party about another thirty nine hours to 1991 01:37:34,540 --> 01:37:32,990 find his grossly mutilated remains I've 1992 01:37:37,870 --> 01:37:34,550 talked about it until I'm blue in the 1993 01:37:40,720 --> 01:37:37,880 face and the press is not going to pick 1994 01:37:45,910 --> 01:37:40,730 up on it I'm afraid that's the case in 1995 01:37:48,910 --> 01:37:45,920 Pennsylvania mm-hmm right yes it 1996 01:37:49,450 --> 01:37:48,920 occurred on a Sunday morning this Todd 1997 01:37:52,990 --> 01:37:49,460 C's 1998 01:37:55,840 --> 01:37:53,000 aged 37 I believe very physically fit 1999 01:37:58,570 --> 01:37:55,850 he'd been a earlier in his life he had 2000 01:38:03,850 --> 01:37:58,580 been a professional wrestler or an 2001 01:38:06,010 --> 01:38:03,860 wrestler in academia and at 5:00 a.m. he 2002 01:38:08,770 --> 01:38:06,020 left his home to go up on his family 2003 01:38:10,510 --> 01:38:08,780 property on Mount Montour which is a 2004 01:38:15,520 --> 01:38:10,520 high point in southern central 2005 01:38:18,820 --> 01:38:15,530 Pennsylvania and 30 minutes later for 2006 01:38:21,940 --> 01:38:18,830 adult witnesses saw a man's body clad 2007 01:38:25,660 --> 01:38:21,950 only in undergarments being levitated 2008 01:38:28,270 --> 01:38:25,670 off the top of mount Mont or up a shaft 2009 01:38:32,140 --> 01:38:28,280 of what appeared to be to them to the 2010 01:38:35,350 --> 01:38:32,150 witnesses a shaft of light like a shaft 2011 01:38:41,620 --> 01:38:35,360 of light out of a flashlight in a fog 2012 01:38:45,070 --> 01:38:41,630 bank and they had a search party was 2013 01:38:49,120 --> 01:38:45,080 assembled that day they didn't find him 2014 01:38:52,090 --> 01:38:49,130 that Sunday but about 7:15 that night 2015 01:38:53,470 --> 01:38:52,100 the next night on Monday the 5th of 2016 01:38:58,420 --> 01:38:53,480 August 2017 01:39:01,210 --> 01:38:58,430 mr. C's son found human remains hanging 2018 01:39:03,280 --> 01:39:01,220 above ground level in thick underbrush 2019 01:39:06,690 --> 01:39:03,290 and 2020 01:39:09,760 --> 01:39:06,700 it is it's been reported to me that the 2021 01:39:11,500 --> 01:39:09,770 remains were so grossly mutilated that 2022 01:39:14,860 --> 01:39:11,510 not even the Sun could positively 2023 01:39:18,790 --> 01:39:14,870 identify them as being the remains of 2024 01:39:22,000 --> 01:39:18,800 his late father very tragic case Wow now 2025 01:39:23,260 --> 01:39:22,010 for the skeptic out there you know we 2026 01:39:27,360 --> 01:39:23,270 always have to think of every single 2027 01:39:30,430 --> 01:39:27,370 case and we always hear the echoes of a 2028 01:39:33,880 --> 01:39:30,440 skeptic and what they would say happened 2029 01:39:36,010 --> 01:39:33,890 what were they saying I'm not sure I've 2030 01:39:38,890 --> 01:39:36,020 talked to any skeptics except a few 2031 01:39:41,800 --> 01:39:38,900 family members I talked to a nurse who 2032 01:39:43,690 --> 01:39:41,810 saw the remains and she reported to me 2033 01:39:46,480 --> 01:39:43,700 she saw the remains in the local 2034 01:39:47,530 --> 01:39:46,490 hospital before they were taken to the 2035 01:39:51,630 --> 01:39:47,540 county morgue 2036 01:39:54,930 --> 01:39:51,640 where an autopsy was performed but the 2037 01:39:58,690 --> 01:39:54,940 County Coroner of Northumberland County 2038 01:40:02,290 --> 01:39:58,700 when I talked to him briefly said under 2039 01:40:05,860 --> 01:40:02,300 no certain terms would I ever have 2040 01:40:08,020 --> 01:40:05,870 access to the autopsy report I asked him 2041 01:40:10,870 --> 01:40:08,030 if photographs of the decedent's remains 2042 01:40:14,020 --> 01:40:10,880 had been taken he said yes but you will 2043 01:40:16,390 --> 01:40:14,030 never see them Mr Davenport hmm that's a 2044 01:40:21,130 --> 01:40:16,400 pretty tall statement those are public 2045 01:40:25,000 --> 01:40:21,140 records it's not within the authority of 2046 01:40:29,170 --> 01:40:25,010 a coroner to say you cannot see public 2047 01:40:33,690 --> 01:40:29,180 records so an interesting case and 2048 01:40:37,510 --> 01:40:33,700 Richard Dolan has been to half the site 2049 01:40:39,850 --> 01:40:37,520 to talk to people about what happened 2050 01:40:44,470 --> 01:40:39,860 during that incident very tragic case 2051 01:40:47,500 --> 01:40:44,480 and the one interesting thing is that 2052 01:40:49,900 --> 01:40:47,510 this nurse described and you can read 2053 01:40:53,140 --> 01:40:49,910 her report on our website again for the 2054 01:40:57,970 --> 01:40:53,150 I believe it's the fourth of August 2002 2055 01:41:01,450 --> 01:40:57,980 if that's a Sunday she reported that the 2056 01:41:04,480 --> 01:41:01,460 remains had a very peculiar metallic 2057 01:41:07,540 --> 01:41:04,490 looking object that was clamped to the 2058 01:41:10,810 --> 01:41:07,550 body and I don't know any more details 2059 01:41:14,020 --> 01:41:10,820 than that my impression is it was 2060 01:41:16,469 --> 01:41:14,030 clamped to the upper arm that I'm hard 2061 01:41:22,049 --> 01:41:16,479 put to prove that statement is 2062 01:41:26,250 --> 01:41:22,059 correct so that's a if a man was killed 2063 01:41:28,949 --> 01:41:26,260 by a UFO while aboard a saucer that's a 2064 01:41:31,699 --> 01:41:28,959 pretty dramatic case by my measure yeah 2065 01:41:34,109 --> 01:41:31,709 I would say you know I I think I've 2066 01:41:36,989 --> 01:41:34,119 heard how we had someone on the show at 2067 01:41:39,390 --> 01:41:36,999 one point that was talking about some 2068 01:41:41,129 --> 01:41:39,400 possible you know human mutilations 2069 01:41:43,229 --> 01:41:41,139 along with the you know the cattle 2070 01:41:46,609 --> 01:41:43,239 mutilations you know similarities and 2071 01:41:49,410 --> 01:41:46,619 how they're mutilated but this sounds 2072 01:41:51,810 --> 01:41:49,420 this sounds really dramatic and I don't 2073 01:41:53,930 --> 01:41:51,820 really quite know if I want to get into 2074 01:41:56,279 --> 01:41:53,940 the details of that for the listener but 2075 01:41:59,729 --> 01:41:56,289 of what you know but it does not sound 2076 01:42:01,949 --> 01:41:59,739 pretty bouncing around just a little bit 2077 01:42:02,430 --> 01:42:01,959 because of the questions on the message 2078 01:42:06,930 --> 01:42:02,440 board 2079 01:42:09,839 --> 01:42:06,940 someone has asked repeatedly if you 2080 01:42:12,149 --> 01:42:09,849 think that the harp can be the high 2081 01:42:16,830 --> 01:42:12,159 frequency whatever it is radar could be 2082 01:42:19,410 --> 01:42:16,840 used as passive radar no I don't I don't 2083 01:42:21,120 --> 01:42:19,420 know exactly what HAARP is but my 2084 01:42:24,600 --> 01:42:21,130 impression is it's just a radio 2085 01:42:26,520 --> 01:42:24,610 transmitter although I will qualify my 2086 01:42:28,890 --> 01:42:26,530 statement just a little bit I commend 2087 01:42:32,040 --> 01:42:28,900 the the person who submitted the 2088 01:42:35,879 --> 01:42:32,050 question for thinking along the lines of 2089 01:42:40,250 --> 01:42:35,889 passive radar it could easily be that 2090 01:42:43,529 --> 01:42:40,260 the HAARP facility is a transmitter to 2091 01:42:46,770 --> 01:42:43,539 generate a transmitted signal that is 2092 01:42:49,109 --> 01:42:46,780 used as part of a passive radar system 2093 01:42:51,810 --> 01:42:49,119 obviously the person who's posed the 2094 01:42:54,419 --> 01:42:51,820 question knows what passive radar means 2095 01:42:57,620 --> 01:42:54,429 and I commend the person for a nice 2096 01:43:01,319 --> 01:42:57,630 question but I personally have no 2097 01:43:03,689 --> 01:43:01,329 knowledge of the HAARP facility and what 2098 01:43:06,209 --> 01:43:03,699 signal it broadcasts what the timing is 2099 01:43:09,000 --> 01:43:06,219 what the frequency is what the power of 2100 01:43:11,160 --> 01:43:09,010 it is what the antenna field may look 2101 01:43:13,410 --> 01:43:11,170 like and therefore the gain may be I 2102 01:43:17,489 --> 01:43:13,420 just don't have the technical facts on 2103 01:43:21,299 --> 01:43:17,499 it so I'm really unable to comment in a 2104 01:43:23,040 --> 01:43:21,309 very intelligent fashion I'm afraid we 2105 01:43:26,129 --> 01:43:23,050 had a show a while back you were talking 2106 01:43:28,679 --> 01:43:26,139 since we're on this subject of getting 2107 01:43:30,210 --> 01:43:28,689 some type of evidence that you know this 2108 01:43:33,660 --> 01:43:30,220 is happening 2109 01:43:36,780 --> 01:43:33,670 we had Doug Trumbull on along with mark 2110 01:43:39,090 --> 01:43:36,790 D intent D Antonio I consider mark a 2111 01:43:40,950 --> 01:43:39,100 friend by the way in for those of you 2112 01:43:44,240 --> 01:43:40,960 listeners out there that are not aware 2113 01:43:47,850 --> 01:43:44,250 of mark has had some real serious health 2114 01:43:49,770 --> 01:43:47,860 issues and with his heart and we're 2115 01:43:55,170 --> 01:43:49,780 hoping he pulls through he's he's not an 2116 01:43:59,850 --> 01:43:55,180 old guy he's you know a real nice man he 2117 01:44:02,760 --> 01:43:59,860 they are working on a some type of 2118 01:44:04,950 --> 01:44:02,770 project where they would have little 2119 01:44:07,620 --> 01:44:04,960 base units here and there that would 2120 01:44:10,230 --> 01:44:07,630 communicate with all different types of 2121 01:44:12,480 --> 01:44:10,240 instruments um have you ever heard about 2122 01:44:17,160 --> 01:44:12,490 anything about the the you photog 2123 01:44:20,070 --> 01:44:17,170 project yes I have I've read about a lot 2124 01:44:23,280 --> 01:44:20,080 of means of detecting UFOs people use 2125 01:44:26,880 --> 01:44:23,290 magnets just all sorts of things people 2126 01:44:28,980 --> 01:44:26,890 propose that we link cell phones and so 2127 01:44:32,340 --> 01:44:28,990 on and so forth the problem with all of 2128 01:44:34,230 --> 01:44:32,350 that is for example magnetic field falls 2129 01:44:37,250 --> 01:44:34,240 off at the square of the distance 2130 01:44:40,590 --> 01:44:37,260 so detecting things with there by 2131 01:44:43,020 --> 01:44:40,600 measuring their magnetic field strength 2132 01:44:44,460 --> 01:44:43,030 is probably not going to be very 2133 01:44:47,430 --> 01:44:44,470 effective people have tried to do that 2134 01:44:54,450 --> 01:44:47,440 for decades hasn't worked very very well 2135 01:44:56,970 --> 01:44:54,460 I really think and what we need rather 2136 01:44:59,550 --> 01:44:56,980 than a bunch of teenagers with 2137 01:45:01,950 --> 01:44:59,560 cellphones what we need is the 2138 01:45:04,370 --> 01:45:01,960 equivalent of ground saucer watch I'm 2139 01:45:08,100 --> 01:45:04,380 surprised that MUFON hasn't done this 2140 01:45:10,560 --> 01:45:08,110 I've calculated how many people you 2141 01:45:13,650 --> 01:45:10,570 would need to have at high points across 2142 01:45:16,770 --> 01:45:13,660 the United States to be able to monitor 2143 01:45:19,500 --> 01:45:16,780 the entire geographical area of the 2144 01:45:22,380 --> 01:45:19,510 lower 48 and it's only between one and 2145 01:45:25,320 --> 01:45:22,390 two thousand people really they're at it 2146 01:45:30,210 --> 01:45:25,330 if there are high points with binoculars 2147 01:45:33,930 --> 01:45:30,220 and so on it's it's just no different 2148 01:45:37,170 --> 01:45:33,940 from a forest fire spotter system mm-hmm 2149 01:45:40,230 --> 01:45:37,180 and that's what we should be doing the 2150 01:45:44,129 --> 01:45:40,240 advantage of that is you suddenly have 2151 01:45:47,970 --> 01:45:44,139 trained observers people who know 2152 01:45:51,149 --> 01:45:47,980 who can distinguish an aircraft from a 2153 01:45:53,760 --> 01:45:51,159 meteor from a an overflight of the 2154 01:45:57,270 --> 01:45:53,770 International Space Station from a 2155 01:46:00,209 --> 01:45:57,280 Iridium flare and so on and so forth and 2156 01:46:02,729 --> 01:46:00,219 that is what we need and MUFON has the 2157 01:46:06,300 --> 01:46:02,739 ability to do it I've toyed with the 2158 01:46:08,399 --> 01:46:06,310 idea that I don't have funding and it's 2159 01:46:10,979 --> 01:46:08,409 going to require a bit of funding so 2160 01:46:14,370 --> 01:46:10,989 everybody has binoculars cameras video 2161 01:46:17,490 --> 01:46:14,380 camcorders and so on and we're talking 2162 01:46:21,720 --> 01:46:17,500 about probably a million dollars to 2163 01:46:23,580 --> 01:46:21,730 outfit a couple thousand people and we 2164 01:46:26,370 --> 01:46:23,590 could have a hundred percent coverage of 2165 01:46:28,560 --> 01:46:26,380 the United States with just the 2166 01:46:31,169 --> 01:46:28,570 personnel that MUFON has I think they 2167 01:46:34,050 --> 01:46:31,179 have about 10,000 members now we could 2168 01:46:36,720 --> 01:46:34,060 have 24-hour daylight and nighttime 2169 01:46:39,810 --> 01:46:36,730 coverage just with the personnel they 2170 01:46:42,840 --> 01:46:39,820 have as members Wow 2171 01:46:45,750 --> 01:46:42,850 a question that just popped up a little 2172 01:46:48,810 --> 01:46:45,760 while ago on the message board is what 2173 01:46:50,820 --> 01:46:48,820 do you think these UFOs are hmm that 2174 01:46:52,649 --> 01:46:50,830 there's a question we all are trying to 2175 01:46:55,410 --> 01:46:52,659 get things out to well based on the 2176 01:46:57,510 --> 01:46:55,420 information available to me and based on 2177 01:47:02,010 --> 01:46:57,520 my personal experience I was born in 2178 01:47:03,870 --> 01:47:02,020 Missouri 67 years ago so the show-me 2179 01:47:06,540 --> 01:47:03,880 principle is very important to me I 2180 01:47:09,720 --> 01:47:06,550 don't believe anything unless I have 2181 01:47:13,439 --> 01:47:09,730 some pretty good evidence to support my 2182 01:47:18,090 --> 01:47:13,449 belief but looks to me as a we're 2183 01:47:21,149 --> 01:47:18,100 dealing with spacecraft that are do not 2184 01:47:23,189 --> 01:47:21,159 originate from this planet they appear 2185 01:47:25,560 --> 01:47:23,199 to be under intelligent control and 2186 01:47:28,260 --> 01:47:25,570 therefore I conclude they're being 2187 01:47:31,820 --> 01:47:28,270 controlled by alien life-forms 2188 01:47:34,649 --> 01:47:31,830 probably very intelligent very capable 2189 01:47:37,859 --> 01:47:34,659 alien life-forms and why they're not 2190 01:47:40,740 --> 01:47:37,869 showing themselves overtly although that 2191 01:47:43,290 --> 01:47:40,750 appears to be changing to a degree but 2192 01:47:45,959 --> 01:47:43,300 why they're not landing on every golf 2193 01:47:50,399 --> 01:47:45,969 course in America and saying teach us 2194 01:47:53,580 --> 01:47:50,409 the game of golf is unclear to me and it 2195 01:47:57,419 --> 01:47:53,590 worries me a little bit that both the 2196 01:47:57,930 --> 01:47:57,429 aliens and our government do not want 2197 01:48:00,350 --> 01:47:57,940 the America 2198 01:48:03,150 --> 01:48:00,360 people thinking about this phenomenon 2199 01:48:06,420 --> 01:48:03,160 that is what I mentioned earlier the 2200 01:48:10,770 --> 01:48:06,430 possibility of collusion between an 2201 01:48:14,790 --> 01:48:10,780 alien life force and alien civilization 2202 01:48:17,250 --> 01:48:14,800 and a government in this case I'm 2203 01:48:19,320 --> 01:48:17,260 alluding to the US government when I 2204 01:48:20,970 --> 01:48:19,330 look at what the government is doing to 2205 01:48:24,320 --> 01:48:20,980 us instead of for us 2206 01:48:30,600 --> 01:48:24,330 I get very concerned it's almost as if 2207 01:48:32,730 --> 01:48:30,610 they their actions are geared to some 2208 01:48:36,270 --> 01:48:32,740 future event that they know is going to 2209 01:48:38,460 --> 01:48:36,280 take place and the debt that we've 2210 01:48:42,330 --> 01:48:38,470 accumulated is a case in point 2211 01:48:44,430 --> 01:48:42,340 you know if typical game theory tells 2212 01:48:47,130 --> 01:48:44,440 you that if a meteor is going to strike 2213 01:48:50,730 --> 01:48:47,140 the planet Earth and destroy it tomorrow 2214 01:48:54,120 --> 01:48:50,740 afternoon the most logical thing for a 2215 01:48:55,800 --> 01:48:54,130 person to do is borrow as much money as 2216 01:48:58,980 --> 01:48:55,810 you possibly can and have the time of 2217 01:49:03,030 --> 01:48:58,990 your life conversely from the standpoint 2218 01:49:06,420 --> 01:49:03,040 of the lender the lenders most rational 2219 01:49:08,220 --> 01:49:06,430 path is to lend as much as he can 2220 01:49:10,710 --> 01:49:08,230 because if there's going to be no 2221 01:49:15,060 --> 01:49:10,720 tomorrow there's no point in having 2222 01:49:17,850 --> 01:49:15,070 money in your bank account so it's 2223 01:49:21,450 --> 01:49:17,860 almost as if these people in our 2224 01:49:23,790 --> 01:49:21,460 government are acting predicated on some 2225 01:49:26,760 --> 01:49:23,800 kind of future of em that they know 2226 01:49:27,180 --> 01:49:26,770 about but you and I do not that worries 2227 01:49:29,310 --> 01:49:27,190 me 2228 01:49:33,480 --> 01:49:29,320 what do you think about the allagash 2229 01:49:36,030 --> 01:49:33,490 case very interesting case means I agree 2230 01:49:38,400 --> 01:49:36,040 and I just want to want to mention 2231 01:49:44,730 --> 01:49:38,410 something about this it ties in 2232 01:49:49,710 --> 01:49:44,740 basically I I got to meet Jim Weiner and 2233 01:49:51,690 --> 01:49:49,720 and Charles faults but I never met 2234 01:49:53,730 --> 01:49:51,700 there's two other people involved of 2235 01:49:59,070 --> 01:49:53,740 course but I listened to an interview 2236 01:50:04,140 --> 01:49:59,080 that Alejandro Rojas did with with with 2237 01:50:05,940 --> 01:50:04,150 Jack Weiner and it was really really a 2238 01:50:09,450 --> 01:50:05,950 good interview I suggest anyone look it 2239 01:50:12,060 --> 01:50:09,460 up on open mind so as a pad plus past 2240 01:50:16,470 --> 01:50:12,070 podcast but in it you know 2241 01:50:18,240 --> 01:50:16,480 toward the end he basically says that he 2242 01:50:21,419 --> 01:50:18,250 says well I've never you know said this 2243 01:50:23,819 --> 01:50:21,429 before but you know I basically was 2244 01:50:26,540 --> 01:50:23,829 given the message that it will be 2245 01:50:31,800 --> 01:50:26,550 revealed and I will be part of it you 2246 01:50:33,839 --> 01:50:31,810 know and to me as far out as that sounds 2247 01:50:37,200 --> 01:50:33,849 I still think that is one of the the 2248 01:50:38,910 --> 01:50:37,210 solid cases and I'm right I'm right I 2249 01:50:41,790 --> 01:50:38,920 believe those guys you know I mean that 2250 01:50:43,530 --> 01:50:41,800 was just dope i sat across and talked to 2251 01:50:47,879 --> 01:50:43,540 them personally and it's just it's like 2252 01:50:50,430 --> 01:50:47,889 Travis Walton I I get that and I think 2253 01:50:52,890 --> 01:50:50,440 you know if that's true that that's 2254 01:50:58,169 --> 01:50:52,900 really interesting because you know he's 2255 01:50:59,669 --> 01:50:58,179 a he's a man in his early 60s so you 2256 01:51:02,100 --> 01:50:59,679 never know we may see something in our 2257 01:51:04,229 --> 01:51:02,110 lifetime it's possible you know my 2258 01:51:06,209 --> 01:51:04,239 understanding is one of the Allagash it 2259 01:51:10,379 --> 01:51:06,219 isn't the yet isn't it referred to as 2260 01:51:14,160 --> 01:51:10,389 the allagash five I believe recollection 2261 01:51:16,319 --> 01:51:14,170 I believe it's four but might be I could 2262 01:51:17,939 --> 01:51:16,329 be wrong could be how one of them I 2263 01:51:22,140 --> 01:51:17,949 think is going to be a Newport Rhode 2264 01:51:24,750 --> 01:51:22,150 Island on the 12th and 13th of July for 2265 01:51:27,720 --> 01:51:24,760 a UFO gathering I was invited to it and 2266 01:51:30,390 --> 01:51:27,730 unfortunately was not able to attend but 2267 01:51:33,990 --> 01:51:30,400 I believe I recall that one of the 2268 01:51:36,120 --> 01:51:34,000 Allagash I'm gonna call him abductees 2269 01:51:40,439 --> 01:51:36,130 one of the Allagash abductees is going 2270 01:51:42,859 --> 01:51:40,449 to be at that gathering at Newport Rhode 2271 01:51:45,180 --> 01:51:42,869 Island here in a couple weeks or so I 2272 01:51:49,169 --> 01:51:45,190 see huh 2273 01:51:50,490 --> 01:51:49,179 okay there was a there's a lot of people 2274 01:51:52,859 --> 01:51:50,500 on the message board just to let you 2275 01:51:55,890 --> 01:51:52,869 know that really like like what you're 2276 01:51:57,569 --> 01:51:55,900 doing and someone just posted on there 2277 01:52:01,350 --> 01:51:57,579 when you retire it's going to be a huge 2278 01:52:04,859 --> 01:52:01,360 loss I thought well thank you my 2279 01:52:07,080 --> 01:52:04,869 gratitude to all to you and for having 2280 01:52:10,080 --> 01:52:07,090 had me on and to all your loyal 2281 01:52:12,660 --> 01:52:10,090 listeners and people who follow this 2282 01:52:14,939 --> 01:52:12,670 phenomenon from my vantage point it 2283 01:52:18,089 --> 01:52:14,949 appears to be a very real phenomenon and 2284 01:52:20,520 --> 01:52:18,099 if it's real it's important to all of us 2285 01:52:23,250 --> 01:52:20,530 and to all living things on this planet 2286 01:52:25,740 --> 01:52:23,260 I feel you know I appreciate the kind 2287 01:52:27,990 --> 01:52:25,750 words and if people are not able to get 2288 01:52:30,450 --> 01:52:28,000 their messages into the message board 2289 01:52:35,330 --> 01:52:30,460 today they can just send me an email and 2290 01:52:38,940 --> 01:52:35,340 be happy to respond to their queries and 2291 01:52:42,180 --> 01:52:38,950 to the time permitting right now I'm in 2292 01:52:44,820 --> 01:52:42,190 severe overload people may wonder how I 2293 01:52:47,880 --> 01:52:44,830 managed to do it well typically I work 2294 01:52:50,070 --> 01:52:47,890 or am on call two shifts a day seven 2295 01:52:54,660 --> 01:52:50,080 days a week that's the only way I can 2296 01:52:59,460 --> 01:52:54,670 handle the volume of email and reports 2297 01:53:02,580 --> 01:52:59,470 and media requests and interviews it's a 2298 01:53:04,710 --> 01:53:02,590 lot of work but it's in my opinion very 2299 01:53:08,130 --> 01:53:04,720 important work I wouldn't want the 2300 01:53:10,160 --> 01:53:08,140 government to be the exclusive source of 2301 01:53:13,170 --> 01:53:10,170 information about the UFO phenomenon 2302 01:53:16,010 --> 01:53:13,180 they're lying through their teeth and I 2303 01:53:19,610 --> 01:53:16,020 don't trust them anymore have you 2304 01:53:22,710 --> 01:53:19,620 someone someone had asked me one time 2305 01:53:25,260 --> 01:53:22,720 this is someone outside of the UFO field 2306 01:53:28,050 --> 01:53:25,270 when I brought up kind of what you just 2307 01:53:30,870 --> 01:53:28,060 said or something similar they said just 2308 01:53:32,490 --> 01:53:30,880 give me one fact that will prove that 2309 01:53:36,060 --> 01:53:32,500 the government's been lying to us about 2310 01:53:38,490 --> 01:53:36,070 UFOs you were posed that question what 2311 01:53:41,700 --> 01:53:38,500 would you say to that person just I 2312 01:53:44,760 --> 01:53:41,710 would encourage that person to get his 2313 01:53:47,790 --> 01:53:44,770 or her own information by talking to 2314 01:53:49,590 --> 01:53:47,800 senior officers people who've been in 2315 01:53:54,330 --> 01:53:49,600 positions of considerable responsibility 2316 01:53:57,210 --> 01:53:54,340 in the military talk to talk to 2317 01:53:59,490 --> 01:53:57,220 astronauts Edgar Mitchell is a case in 2318 01:54:04,260 --> 01:53:59,500 point Gordon Cooper another case in 2319 01:54:06,300 --> 01:54:04,270 point I once wrote Alan Shepard he and I 2320 01:54:08,730 --> 01:54:06,310 grew up in the same town beast' Easter 2321 01:54:11,610 --> 01:54:08,740 in New Hampshire I didn't know that no 2322 01:54:14,000 --> 01:54:11,620 doc he was
