I feel strongly that if the group can carry off (and carry thru) this experiment as if it is genuinely their 'reality', that within four to six weeks, the "Control System" will be attracted and 'phenomena' will begin manifesting....
Unfortunately, anyone who decides to run such an experiment will have to take it from here...I haven't a clue what should come next...
ATS members:
Many thanks for your patience!! We now return you to your regularly scheduled thread..

There is so much info in this book...including Vallee's interest in the occult (strictly as an observer as he attempted to find clues to the 'supernatural' aspect of ufo phenomena).
Dr. Bob: Dr. Vallee, how did you become interested in the order of the Rose Cross, and what value did it have in your growth and development?
Dr. Jacques Vallee: As a young student, I must have been 18 or 19 when I first became interested. I was really looking for information about traditions and I became aware of the fact that science didn't just come out of the imagination of a few people, that there was a tradition of research that went very far back, and that at some period in history had been actually underground. I was looking for information about that. That's what led me to the Rosicrucian tradition.
Hynek & Vallee
Dr. Bob: I was surprised also to learn later on that Dr. Hynek was also a member for a number of years.
Dr. Jacques Vallee: Yes, I think I relate in my diary the time when we came to discussing this and I was delighted to learn that he had, for many years, gotten information from the tradition as well. We both came to the same conclusion, by the way, that we really didn't need an organization to continue this research, as there were many sources around and that kind of research was best done independently. But those organizations were very sincere and gave us a start.

lostgirl…Vallee never worked for any government agency. He was never with the CIA, NSA, or any other 'alphabet' guys. He worked for SRI on projects which were then later taken over by or utilized by various governmental departments.....
That may seem hard to believe, given everything written on the subject, but I promise you if you read this book, it becomes irrefutable...
During the 1970s he (Vallee) was involved with many of the same intelligence organizations that were participating in the ATP.

And the thing that connects him to the big boys is J Hynek the guy who brought our old friend pAUL Bennewitz the super computer.
I WONDER WHO WAS THE COMPUTER EXPERT TO COOK THAT UP?!
...It could also be tied to human consciousness. The Collective Unconscious could be doing this to us, projecting images that are important during the current crisis we are going through. It could also come from a form of creature that has always lived on Earth with us and is not an alien consciousness, in the sense that we usually think of aliens. This goes back to the traditions about the faeries and gnomes and Little People: what I have called the Magonia tradition, that in fact there is another Universe right here. Perhaps most of us just don’t see it, but it’s here.
When I started Passport to Magonia, I gathered all the old books about the faeries and the Good People, the Good Neighbors. This is a wonderful body of literature. These beings did approximately what the UFO beings do today. They would fly at night in strange cone-shaped luminous craft, they would abduct human beings, they even had little pins that would paralyze you. This is centuries ago, okay? And it matches reports from people who see UFOs today.
So I think that parallel is very interesting. It’s still one of my favorite theories but there could be others! You could argue that there are natural phenomena that play a role in all this. For instance, Paul Devereux has written several books about "Earth lights" which he has shown to be tied to several megalithic sites.
Whether the megaliths have anything to do with UFOs, or whether those sites tended to have strange lights so that over the years people used them for their temple and put a rock there, is open to question. Perhaps it was a natural phenomenon all along. That’s a possibility, but it really does not explain all UFOs.
The other possibility is that there may be forces within the Earth tied to some old traditions. There may be unrecognized telluric currents, forces within the Earth that could manifest in the form of electromagnetic phenomena that could become luminous and float through the air. Usually those things we don’t think of as being intelligent but who knows? Maybe it could be a form of consciousness.
There are other way-out theories that I find entertaining. We could imagine superconductive clouds moving through the galaxy taking any shape they want. Say, if you were a superconductive hydrogen cloud ten times the size of the solar system and you wanted to look like a Volkswagen, who could stop you from looking like a Volkswagen? You could do anything you wanted to!
There is a book called The Black Cloud by Fred Hoyle, who is one of our greatest living astronomers. It is a science fiction story about a conscious hydrogen cloud. Now, of course if there was such a cloud we’d presumably see it as it came closer to the Earth. But there may be forms of plasma that we don’t know how to detect yet, or maybe we’re simply not looking for them.
Now, I don’t specifically believe all that, but these are fun theories that should be looked at. Paul Devereux’s hypothesis of the Earth Lights is a very important one.
Geologists today are beginning to reassess the descriptions by people who said they saw lights before an earthquake: "I saw this globe of light and it flew down the canyon and ten minutes later there was an earthquake!" Geologists used to say those were ignorant farmers who didn’t know their physics. Now they are beginning to realize that before an earthquake the friction forces within the Earth could well create plasma or electromagnetic discharges that could become visible. In fact, scientists like Dr. John Derr at the US Geological Survey have found a correlation of these lights with fault lines and earthquakes...

The thing is, when it comes down to choosing whose word over whose, I think Vallee wins hands down over Alexander...
A single basic question remains. Given that all the stories about aliens, MJ-12, and crashed disks are delusionary, are we dealing with a spontaneous epidemic of strange beliefs among overly imaginative amateurs frustrated by the lack of progress in their research? Or is there a more sinister force at work, using them to purposely disseminate spurious data to serve its own purposes?

In 'Revelations; Alien Contact and Human Deception', in discussing the Bennewitz affair, Vallee offers a few quite pertinent statements. His on belief in nuts and bolts craft seemingly shattered, he offers this

I would take this and go one step further, which goes back to some things I've alluded to earlier in this and other threads; Is it possible that whatever this sinister force may be, human or otherwise, could it be the same source that seduced Pilkington and the writing of Mirage Men? The players (Doty, Kit Green among others), are the same - is there a nonlinear (or otherwise) agenda at play here?
To paraphrase Klass, are we any nearer, and will we ever get any closer to understanding this phenomena, and what it is all about?

Well this just broke today...
The most dangerous form of black magic is the scientific perversion of occult power for the gratification of personal desire. Its less complex and more universal form is human selfishness, for selfishness is the fundamental cause of all worldly evil.
A man will barter his eternal soul for temporal power, and down through the ages a mysterious process has been evolved which actually enables him to make this exchange. In its various branches the black art includes nearly all forms of ceremonial magic, necromancy, witchcraft, sorcery, and vampirism. Under the same general heading are also included mesmerism and hypnotism, except when used solely for medical purposes, and even then there is an element of risk for all concerned.
Though the demonism of the Middle Ages seems to have disappeared, there is abundant evidence that in many forms of modern thought--especially the so-called “prosperity” psychology, “willpower-building” metaphysics, and systems of “high-pressure” salesmanship--black magic has merely passed through a metamorphosis, and although its name be changed its nature remains the same.

While in New York, Olson also met with John Mullholland, a CIA-employed magician. When Mullholland attempted to hypnotize Olson, the latter grew upset. He pleaded with them all to “just let me disappear.” Unfortunately, that wasn’t any kind of magic trick that John Mullholland could perform. The CIA had an entirely different trick up its sleeve and shortly thereafter, Frank Olson plunged to his death from his hotel window.

Vallee wrote the forward for the book and they remain friends. I'm fairly certain the description is accurate. What that suggests, of course, is up for interpretation.edit on 24-2-2014 by The GUT because: (no reason given)

Vallee has spent a lot of time--and formed friendships--with those whose philosophy is of an occultic nature. He also refers, somewhere, to occult "initiation" in the first person if my memory serves---I'll try and hunt it down.
I included the following interview excerpt in Dr. J. Allen Hynek, Rosicrucianism, and UFOs. While it could, I guess, be construed as dispassionate scientific interest, I believe it suggests more.

p.s. If you find evidence that Vallee ever sought out initiation into any occult group, I will be happy to eat my words..
