It's slow at work, so I'm watching the Skinwalker clip. Ventura is very likable, but I wasn't expecting any substance. Which is why I was taken aback @ minute 23 when the radio interference changed into... a cold metallic voice. A force that takes radio waves and shapes them into syllables.
Or a guy with a vocoder.
The cold metallic voice is one of those tiny motifs you run into again and again in the course of research. Sarfatti, Puharich, Geller, Keel, Swann-- they all heard it, and they all described it the same way. I always wondered what it sounded like, and now I know.
If the phone rings at any point in the next half hour I am going to have a very rough time convincing myself to answer it.

Were some of the N.I.D.S team used as lab rats unbeknownst to themselves possibly by useing Freak Tech to make the phenomena happen on cue, or did they get mind bending DATA that allowed TPTB to harness it, crunch the numbers then develop means to replicate it at will?
Certainly the perfect place to do such things.
Maybe the argument about disclosure is a valid one when it's suggested we can't handle the truth!
What if the truth is so terrifying and even our governments are unable to stop the Real cases of weirdness?

I wasn't suggesting abductions aren't a real phenomenon, just that they have become so frequent and wide spread, maybe some of them could be from earthly entities for their own experiments.
If aliens can take over complete control of our minds and bodies, wouldn't war mongering humans minds want to try and figure out how to do it too?
We already know science is light years ahead of what the public is aware of. Ms.Nugget

If there is an intelligence directing the phenomena, then it would appear that it was running some kind psychological warfare scheme to modify our behavior/culture/etc for unknown ends. I'm wondering if the psywar guys were taking notes and learning from the phenomena in some sense.

A few days later, on May 17, Jane answered the phone (she had her own phone in her room) and a strange metallic voice addressed her.
“Listen carefully,” it said. “I cannot hear you.”
It instructed her to go to a small public library nearby and look up a certain book on Indian history.
She did as she was instructed. On May 19 she went to the library at 10:30 A.M. The place was deserted except for the librarian, who struck Jane as being unusual. The woman was,
“dressed in an old-fashioned suit like something out of the 1940s, with a long skirt, broad shoulders, and flat old-looking shoes.“ (Remember, this was in 1967, long before the 1940s styles became popular again.)
She had a dark complexion, with a fine bone structure, and very black eyes and hair. When Jane entered, the woman seemed to be expecting her and produced the book instantly from under her desk.

The nature of the whirlwind, which whizzes around in circles, effects a power that can do the same to the mind, rendering the enemy confused and disoriented; or in the sphere of love, it can cause the mind of a woman to spiral out of control so that she cannot resist seduction. It is no wonder, then, that the Sioux god Whirlwind (Yum, Yomn, Yomni) is a deity of chance, games, and most particularly love. The moth is a natural exemplar of the vortex, since it circles a flame in a tightening spiral, and some species of moths also spiral downward to escape bats. Another predator of moths, the spider, is in an obscure way involved with the whirlwind. In Lakota apotropaic designs, the spider silk web indicates the whirlwind as much as does the silk cocoon. This may be because both the web and the whirlwind are circular, and form a trap.
In the Ghost Dance, Whirlwind is to bear the dancers "upward to the new spirit world." This apparently works in reverse. Human beings originated out of Paruksti's whirlwind bag according to the Pawnee. In a Blackfoot tale, the soul of a child appeared to his future mother in the form of a whirlwind, but when she grasped him, she found nothing in her hand except a caterpiller. When this boy grew up, he wished to leave for the spirit world, but because his mother insisted on going with him, he became a whirlwind into which both disappeared. The mere identity of Mothra as moth would also be sufficient to associate it with the whirlwind as the transporter of ghosts; and the fact that Morning Star is a god of winds, would seem to implicate him as well.
Itzpapalotl, the Obsidian Butterfly, has an alloform as an ītzpāpā́lōtl moth as well as numerous fictional lepidoptera, some of which are mothras in their own right, equipped with gaping jaws and sharp teeth. Since, in these Mexican terms, Morning Star fell into the power of Itzpapalotl, he was therefore captured by a supernatural and dangerous moth
The cocoon plays an important role in the Dakotan branch of Central Siouan. There is a cocoon called a wamni(y)omni, which is said to embed itself in the small of the back of some buffaloes Riggs defines wamniomni as, "a small worm, perhaps a chrysalis; a whirl of wind, a hurricane We know that this "chrysalis" is actually a cocoon, because it is the moth, rather than the butterfly, that has an intimate connection to the whirlwind
The Dakota believe that there is a close relation between the whirlwind and the fluttering wings of a moth. The cocoon is regarded as the bundle or mysterious object from which a power similar to that of the whirlwind emanates. I was told that the observed facts as to the emergence of the moth from this bundle were in themselves evidences of the sacred character of the moth because it had power to escape from an enclosure. Like the wind it could not be confined
Morning Star himself shares in the metamorphic powers of the moth who swallowed him. This would be in keeping with the Mexican tendency to see a merging of attributes of those deities whose physical realms come to coincide. In old Mexico Mixcoatl is the leader of the dead, the warriors who reside in the sky, who escort the sun to its midpoint; those women who have died giving birth, reside in the other half of the sky, and under the leadership of Itzpapalotl, escort the sun to its setting point. At Etowah the Hočąk-style Morning Star has become the warrior god of the elite dead, those who, as in Hočąk theology (as opposed to Mexican) may rediscover life in the flesh just as did their leader Morning Star.
Integral to understanding the "Big Bang" of Cahokia is the rise of the cult of the figure known to archaeologists as "Birdman."

In the form of a hawk, he follows the whirlwind through the hole in the sky. From this point on, the story goes like that of the Hero Twins of the Crow, as they eventually overcome the lord of the Above World, and escape back through the hole in the sky.
Among the Lakota, the charter myth for transiting the hole in the sky identifies the mechanical means of entering through it as being the whirlwind. It would suggest that the whirlwind, whose identity is bound up with the moth,

Good post, man. And dangit, now I'm gonna have to look at the Mothman Prophesies.
But here is a question...what about people like myself who seem to have invited the strangeness in somehow? Either through meditation or flat out occult practices. How does that work? How do people (Gov or entities) go about monitoring a single individual's thoughts amongst the billions fof people, billions of cats, dogs, horses, dolphins, etc that are presumably floating around in the ether?
JayinAR
Again I may be wrong, but I think that the high strangeness areas are probably located in areas of geologic "turmoil" of one sort or another.
Utah comes to mind. Colorado. Etc.

The Mothra is a very important and pervaisve figure as it creates the whirlwind that allows the souls to pass through the hole in the sky, it creates a vortex through realms.

In the old days we did not know cyclones; but when we came to know them, we called them Ra-ri-tu-ru. We remembered what we had been told of the return of the south wind from the star of the dead, and we offered tobacco.
It could perhaps be said that the appearance of Mothmen is a sign that the portal between the spirit realm and the Earthly is being opened.
Observations by NASA's THEMIS spacecraft and Europe's Cluster probes suggest that these magnetic portals open and close dozens of times each day. They're typically located a few tens of thousands of kilometers from Earth where the geomagnetic field meets the onrushing solar wind. Most portals are small and short-lived; others are yawning, vast, and sustained. Tons of energetic particles can flow through the openings, heating Earth's upper atmosphere, sparking geomagnetic storms, and igniting bright polar auroras.
Portals form via the process of magnetic reconnection. Mingling lines of magnetic force from the sun and Earth criss-cross and join to create the openings. "X-points" are where the criss-cross takes place. The sudden joining of magnetic fields can propel jets of charged particles from the X-point, creating an "electron diffusion region."
The Steel Valley is the area of post-industrial and industrial concentration along the upper Ohio River valley as well as the Monongahela River all the way to the West Virginia border.
The World Digital Magnetic Anomaly Map (WDMAM) shows the variation in strength of the magnetic field after the Earth's dipole field has been removed. Earth's dipole field is generated by circulating electric currents in the planet's metal core. It varies from 35,000 nanoTesla (nT) at the Equator to 70,000 nT at the poles.
After removal of the dipole field anomalies, the variations in the field (few hundreds of nT) are due to changes in the magnetic properties of the crustal rocks themselves.
Hot colours (reds) indicate high values; cold colours (blues) indicate low or negative values of the magnetic field strength.
