Hello All,
This is my story. I am not a believer. I've never seen an UFO nor do I know of anyone personally who has. I grew up in the era of Project Blue Book
and lived just outside Dayton, Ohio, home of Wright Patterson AFB until my mid teens. Last Fall I kind of got wind of Black Triangles and jioned an
UFO Forum to find out more about them. Well, guess what? Yep, you guessed it. Stupid me finds out that no one knows anything concrete about them. Oh,
lots of speculation, lots of conjecture, lots of sightings, some photos, lots of accounts and reports on MUFON, NUFORC and other places but
essentially ZIP for facts. I've spent 4 years on an astronomy Forum so facts are not only necessary but required for any reasonably civil and
intelligent discussion or, like here too, debate and argument.
Now there's a person on my home UFO Forum that has a theory and I asked some questions and dialogued with other members but my focus remained with the
BTs. I was (and still am) fairly convinced that they are military. Now here's one of the problems I ran into in the process of gathering information
in order to put a set of facts together that would evolve into a picture I could have of them that would allow me to arrive at a logical answer as to
their origin. Not their purpose- JUST their origin. I knew it was impossible and a thorough waste of time to try and determine their purpose or search
in any other capacity until I could FIRST DETERMINE THEIR EXISTENCE! So I set out to do just that very thing.
I went about collecting everything I could find and came up with an idea: If more people got involved as a group then for a given report one person
could look at the geology of the area, another could look at the resources, another the minerals, another the weather conditions, another could
research whether or not other sightings of other objects, not just Triangles occured in the surrounding area. There was more criteria to look at as
well such as direction of travel which I felt was important to see if an object was coming from or going to a place that the catagories listed might
prove to be more revealing as to what they they were about.
And again, guess what? No one wanted to give the method even a cursory looksee. Zero response. It was like I was the only member on the Forum and
everyone else left. I kept posting reports from Mufon's map "UFO Stalker" and commenting on the sightings but I couldn't generate enough interest
that members wanted to take action. Lots of views but absolutely little or no dialogue for a month or so. Talk about feeling like an outsider.
Now the person that had been doing his own UFO research for over 35 years and I had been kind of discussing his stuff when one day he posted that he
had had enough with the closed doors, dead ends, and general lack of response from the UFO community and from the more enlightened groups like MUFON
and other organizations who had nothing but a deaf ear to lend. He decided to formulate a plan to circumvent ALL the UFO organisations no matter how
well connected, knowledgeable, or large they were. The plan also bypassed government agencies of every kind and power. It bypassed all the Forums,
moderators, admins, as well as the various conferences including MUFON's 42-year-old "symposium and a lot of others that had been around for 20 years
or so.
Now before I continue I have to say as a non-believer that I can understand that conferences are as much a social thing as they are informative. BUT
one would think that after 42 years of selling UFO and especially UFO paraphenalia that the BIZ of UFOs would be so obvious that folks would get angry
at the marketing of ET for profit. The books (thousands), the mugs (more thousands), the decals (even more thousands) and the money taken in
(billions) have not produced one shred of proof that will stand up under scrutiny. Many "know" aliens exist but they do not truly know aliens exist in
the reality sense. The "expert" speakers and and the conference programs in general have exposed and concretely revealed nothing except how to get
rich off of someone else's belief and desire for Truth (which should cost no one anything anyway!). But perpetuated ignorance is good for business is
it not?
OK, enough of that. The person on my Forum drafted a message outlining the idea and I had a hand in editing some points. After some discussion it was
agreed that I would then take the "Notice" and post it on as many UFO Forums as I could. I became a member of 25 Forums and did just that. My own plan
was, and is, to take the ball and run with it because I believed the concept to be simple and, at the same time, could possibly be very effective in
PROVING ET's existence!!! That is not to say or even assume that anyone can make ET do something ( if ET exists at all). But doing nothing will
guarantee the current state that believers find themselves in will remain the same with no progression whatsoever toward Truth. I think most by now
are fed up anyway with the status quo and ready to do something- ANYTHING- to change things.
The "Notice" is on this Forum as well. It was posted a month ago. I came here last week to issue a monthly reminder on the 20th of each month until
July 20th of this year. Before I post the link though I wish to clarify something I think is important first and foremost. I came into the UFO world
as a complete and utter novice. I knew nothing and still know very little but I have to say this: A novice of only a week knows as much about the
reality of ET as someone who has been at it for a decade. And it's true. Longevity in a debate concerniing the existence of anything like UFOs,
Bigfoot, and all the other paranormal subjects means nothing if a solution cannot be arrived at.
I have seen the ET subject go around and around, not just this Forum or my own home Forum, but on all the other 20+ Forums I've joined. It doesn't
matter if the Forum has thousands of members or not. A small Forum of only a couple of hundred knows as much (and as little) as the large ones. I
found out that WRT my "precious" Black Triangles folks all pretty much knew the same things, and DIDN'T know the same things. So I was myself
frustrated enough to post the so-called "Notice". The gist of the message is this: a lot of reports state that ET communicates by telepathy. Well
enough. The idea is that the entire world of believers TOGETHER AND AT THE SAME MOMENT make a telepathic request to ET to show itself in the skies all
over the world.
That's the whole idea in a nutshell. The concept is so simple................but no one gets it. I did not author the "Notice" but I have been
attacked for being a spammer, a fake, accused of trying to steal members over to my Forum, promoting a cause, and ridiculed for things you wouldn't
believe and for reasons that you also wouldn't believe. I've had mods tell me they can't be bothered because they already know ET exists. Their Forums
are large and, believe me, no one knows or has proof of anything. I find it quite atonishing that the members of Forums do not insist on proof in
exchange for their support of the Forums and their advertisers! It is a sad state of affairs if you ask me that so much is believed and trusted with
so little if any evidence. It makes the whole thing look like such a con game even though I know that the Forums are full of well meaning individuals
who are very sincere in their purpose for being there.
Anyway this idea is really an event of sorts that anyone can participate in. It's not a "cause" nor is it a "movement". There's no one in charge so
there is no one to look to or look up to. The only "boss" is you, the individual. Whether anyone else on the entire planet joins in this event or not
will not be known be anyone else. It's a private matter for pretty much everyone, for one's own reasons alone and has nothing to do with anyone else
or their reasons. The environment one chooses may be one of peace and quiet or could be in a noisy crowded thoroughfare, at work, at home, in a bar or
pub, in a car, on a bus, on a train, in a taxi, in a field, in a parking lot, with friends, with other believers, in a group on your favorite forum,
at a rock concert, ANYWHERE AT ALL. The place or situation is not at all the issue. It's all about one's timing coinciding with everyone else's and
nothing else.
As a non-believer tired of seeing believers hash it out over ET, their individual theories, what they think is really going on all the way to
government cover up, and things like Roswell, my chosen roll ifor this whole thing is to issue reminders of this event once a month, answer questions
and, basically, little else. At the end of July, when the whole thing is over, I'll quit UFOs all together and get on with my life. Unless ET actually
shows up!! In which case then, AND ONLY THEN, the next question can be tackled: Why are they here? But not until then because answering THAT question
at this time is impossible and any attempts to do so just lead to a quagmire of
"known" ideas.
And that's my story.
Regards, hiflier.
