loads of readable PDFs

I am pretty judgmental about Dr. Steven Greer (seen at left), but here is something noteworthy. His organization, The Disclosure Project, is posting a lot of interesting stuff as readable PDFs. 

Examples, the entire archive of downloaded stuff is sort of overwheling to dig into, but there are some gems in here.

There is hard to find stuff, like the book UFOs and the Psychic Factor by Jacques Vallee.

... And a big load of old MUFON Journals, like this one here where Kenneth Arnold talks about the work of Charles Fort:

Greer's site also has a bunch of videos, some are very compelling - while some are VERY questionable.

Read about my own run in with the good doctor HERE.

The Alien Abduction Diaries


documentary from 2002

On November of 2002, the Sci-Fi Channel is aired THE ALIEN ABDUCTION DIARIES, an a documentary on alien encounters and the unexpected impact on human lives. This 43-minute show was produced as part of the launch of Steven Spielberg’s miniseries, TAKEN, which aired the following month, also on the Sci-Fi Channel.

Below is another documentary with the exact same title from a decade later. This one is much more raw, featuring some extensive interviews with people who have had the direct contact experience. Researcher Preston Dennett is a main player in this show. We spoke together a few years back and I like the guy enormously.

Both of these documentaries are recommended.

Robert Louis Stevenson and the Little People

illustrated by N.C. Wyeth

Robert Louis Stevenson gave us such classics as The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde and Treasure Island but he had a guilty secret. Stevenson felt that he did not actually write these books by himself, but rather, the stories were given to him by fairies. These would be the little people he called “Brownies.” Stevenson claimed the Brownies came to him in his sleep to give him story ideas, plots and narratives, and all he had to do when he woke up is write them down. Stevenson said:
The whole of my published fiction should be the single-minded product of some Brownie, some Familiar, some unseen collaborator, whom I keep locked up in the back of a garret ... the more I think of it, the more I am moved to press upon the world my question: Who are the Little People?
Stevenson was born in Edinburgh, Scotland.
