Elaine Douglass audio interviews linked

Below is a listing of audio interviews with the late UFO abduction researcher Elaine Douglass. I considered her a close friend. These interviews were collected doing google searches, and ganged here for your listening. A few of these links have poor audio, but most are well worth listening and very interesting.

The first is a fascinating interview with Elaine Douglass where she talks about her research into UFO abduction and mind control. I spoke to her shortly after this interview, and she was very concerned she shared TOO much, as if she had talked about parts of her research that might be best kept secret.

This was aired in March of 2013 on LA Radio Night Vision Radio with Rene Barnett. There was a guest host for this interview, and whoever it was (God bless him) just let Elaine talk.

Rest In Peace, Elaine Douglass

Elaine Douglass

Elaine Douglass died yesterday. It is with a heavy heart that I share this sad news.

I first heard of Elaine in 2008 on an audio interview with Karyn Dolan. After hearing her talk, I simply looked up her number and called her. Later, while driving through Moab Utah, where she was living, I made it a point to visit her home. 

On our very first meeting she asked for my help in planting a tree in her yard. I also met, and played with, her new kitten, Pip. When we went into her house, she revealed that she had made me a cake (a lemon cake). This, at a time when I was terribly distressed at what might have been my own involvement with the phenomenon.

I met with her a few more times at her home in Utah, and we spoke on the phone often. Elaine was a very strong personality, and that’s a understatement. I can see how she could rub some folks the wrong way, especially the higher ups at MUFON. I liked her enormously. I am drawn to very intense people.

I posted an audio interview with Elaine (where she calls me Honey) back in October of 2013, just a little over three months ago. There was a side of me that was a it hesitant to do that interview, because her outlook on these subjects was so dark. There is a curious pressure within this UFO sandbox to share only the love & light vibe. Elaine was in top form during that talk, and I feel very strongly that her ideas need to be a part of the overall UFO debate.

Elaine and I spent a lot of hours on the phone, late at night, wrestling with the questions and challenges that emerged from her ongoing research. She was also extremely supportive when I shared my experiences. I loved that she spoke to me straight and bluntly. I will forever cherish her passionate forthright ways. I gained something enormously vital from her friendship.

HERE is a thoughtful set of memories from fellow blogger Lucretia Heart at her AT SPIRALS' END site.

Rest In Peace, Elaine

From Ron Regher:

Elaine Douglass, formerly MUFON Director for both the District of Columbia and the State of Utah passed today, January 27, from a recurring cancer. Services will be held in California at a time and place to be determined.

Investigating abductions by Elaine Douglass

Very interesting essay written by Elaine Douglass. It is posted below in both a PDF reader and as an the body copy of this blog post. Her conclusion, after decades of investigation, is that perhaps as many as 50% of the people who see UFOs are also abductees. This same speculative insight is echoed from most abduction researchers. Well worth reading.

Investigating abduction cases - by Elaine Douglass

Investigating abduction cases in your state:

Just use common sense

By Elaine Douglass

Mufon State Director, Utah

This article was originally posted in the MUFON Journal, exact date unknown
______________________________________________________________

Recently a Mufon state director told me: “We haven’t had an abduction case in our state since the year one. I am not interested in abduction cases. My investigators are not interested in abduction cases. I think you have to be a trained psychologist to look into these cases.” Next, the state director was kind enough to tell me of his own experiences with grey aliens in his childhood. After that he said, “I’m mainly interested in disclosure through which I hope all the mysteries will be explained.”

He justified his position, but it is not mine. I want to find out what the aliens are doing, here and now, and the best way to get information on that is the abductions. And you don’t need to be a trained psychologist to look into abduction cases. All you need is common sense.

Sighting witnesses may be abductees

Here in Utah, where I am state director, I find the majority of sighting witnesses are abductees or probables. This is extremely significant and if true nationwide it is an insight that should inform us throughout the ranks of Mufon. In Utah, I’d say at least 50% of sighting witnesses are abductees. How do I find this out? By asking the simple question: “So, what else, in your whole life, has ever happened to you that you cannot explain?” Frequently when I ask this question of sighting witnesses, a big story comes out.

job interview at the CIA conducted by an alien

During the audio conversation with Elaine Douglass, we spoke at length about one very interesting case. It told the story of a young man going to the CIA for a job interview, he claims he was given a lie detector test by an alien. The article was initially published in two parts in Journal of Abduction Research (JAR) magazine, in 2007 and 2008. The PDF below has both parts combined for easy reading.

A lot of listeners were eager to read this two-part article, they said as much in the comments below the interview posting. This essay was also featured in a segment of Mysterious Universe around Halloween 2013.

You can find another (shorter) essay from Elaine HERE. This was posted in the MUFON Journal. She writes, after decades of investigation, is that perhaps as many as 50% of the people who see UFOs are also abductees. Highly recommended.

PLEASE NOTE: I used an optical text reading application to glean the text from the PDF file. That said, there are some pretty goofy errors in the document. I obviously didn't catch them all (I tried) so heads up that some sentences will play out as absurd. 

Don’t apply for a job at the CIA—

You might be interviewed by an alien

This article was originally posted in two separate parts. It is now one article.

I am saddened to report that Elaine died. Here is a short remembrance is linked HERE. She left us on January 27th 2014 after a long battle with cancer.

audio conversation with Elaine Douglass

There is a dark side to the UFO abduction phenomenon that seems to get lost in the online podcasting scene. Elaine has been digging deep into this research, and her conclusions are at odds with many in the community. What she sees is a cautionary tale, one that challenges my own outlook on these complex issues.

Elaine Douglass has been a UFO investigator for over 25 years. She holds a masters degree from MIT in military policy. She was with MUFON for 25 years as state director of Washington DC and then Utah. In the 1990s she was an organizer for ORTK, Operation Right to Know which held street demonstrations in several cities protesting UFO secrecy.

Elaine has investigated a huge number of sighting reports, but early on she turned her attention to the abduction cases. In 2008 she founded JAR, The Journal of Abduction-Encounter Research, an email magazine which published 9 issues. In 2012 she was a guest on the Jesse Ventura show where he interviewed on her contention that Robert Bigelow is an intelligence asset operating in the UFO community.

For more information Elaine's experiences with MUFON, and also what others have been through, I’m going to suggest a series of informative interviews from Jerry Pippin under the title MUFON UNDER SIEGE. You’ll hear her tell about some demoralizing experiences within that organization. Elaine also started an organization, The Committee to Reform MUFON in the hopes of lobbying for more openness within that organization.

Here's another very good interview with Elaine, from March of this year. Elaine can be reached at her email address: edouglass [the 'at' symbol] frontier.com.

Here is a link to the article by Elaine where she tells the story of a young man who was at a job interview with the CIA, and he was given a lie detector test by an alien. Linked HERE.

Excellent essay on researching UFO abduction posted HERE.

my blog stat counter from May 2014

I pay attention to the number 1234, and it shows up here (albeit with a zero) on the stat counter for this blog. No answers from this tiny clue. I am at the point that when I find these, I take note, try to document it on this site, and then see where it points. Alas, there isn't much to say, but those numbers remain.
