Gizmos and Gadgets – by Dave Desjardins CPFI
A weekly review of the latest tech in paranormal research.
“Freaking Laser Beams” ~ Dr Evil
In my first Gizmos and Gadgets article I stated that I personally wasn’t a
huge fan of equipment over kill, preferring to keep it to the basics despite the
fact that I have more stuff laying around than you can shake a proverbial stick
at. With that said, I do like to experiment now and then with unconventional
“toys”.
A trip to my local hardware store will often see me walking out with at
least one or two items not on the shopping list, but to be experimented with
at some point during an investigation. One such item that some already use
but are often not considered, are laser levels. These can be picked up fairly
cheap, depending on included features and adjustability.
At this point some are wondering, what the heck do I need laser levels for?
Please, bear with me. A number of organizations swear by the use of motion
detectors to pick up, well, motion (go figure). If you use them great, however
after one investigation I was a part of, I was hearing the front door of 7-11
ringing in my head for a week. Thus, I won’t allow them during our investiga-
tions and the mere mention of them makes me cringe. They also add addi-
tional noise contamination, if all you hear during your evp sessions is bing
bong, bing bong, as some rodent, pet or large insect fly’s in front of them.
Which brings me back to laser levels. With a couple of these wonderful
little contraptions, many of which can be mounted on a tripod, you can effec-
tively create a grid in a confined area that will illuminate anything that breaks
the beam of the laser. By placing a static camera to monitor this area, you
have a silent, nearly invisible sentry that will show mists or solid forms, and
there is no guessing as to what broke the beams making spotting subtle
movement that much easier during evidence review. In my experience these
are great for corridors or residential hallways, doorways or any area that con-
fines movement.
While I haven’t experimented extensively with these yet, we have used
them on occasion and I have seen some very impressive results from another
organization whereby they had placed several in a purportedly haunted loca-
tion. During the course of their investigation video footage was caught of an
unidentified mass (not human or animal) moving through the grid, breaking
the beams one by one. Compelling stuff.
Unconventional? Sure, but then again, what exactly is conventional with our
line of research? Besides, even if they never get used for another investiga-
tion, there isn’t a crooked picture frame in my house.

The Philadelphia Experiment
As extracted from the ParaNexus Parapedia.
Ed’s Note: The following article is extracted from the ParaNexus Parapedia in order to highlight the quality of work that can be found there

The Philadelphia Experiment
Alleged Story
The U.S. Navy was looking for new methods to escape
radar detection by German U-boats during the 1940’s.
They looked to the brilliant minds of Albert Einstein
and Nikola Tesla, who were developing a new technol-
ogy at Princeton University. The group of scientists
claimed to be successful in making small objects invisi-
ble by alternating the electrical and magnetic energy
fields around the subjects. [1]
The Navy allegedly decided on testing this technology
on a ship, the U.S.S. Eldridge. The first test was with
caged domestic animals placed randomly on different
decks. The experiment resulted with radiation burns on
a few of the animals, while others had disappeared
from inside their cages. [2]

U.S.S. Eldridge, April 25, 1944
The United States Navy in the Philadelphia
Naval shipyard conducted the alleged experi-
ment on August 12, 1943. The purpose was to
make the U.S.S. Eldridge invisible to radar by
manipulating the electric and magnetic fields
around the ships’ hull. It is claimed that it liter-
ally made the entire ship and its crew invisible,
and teleported the ship to another location for
four hours, returning once again in Philadel-
phia with disastrous effects upon the crew.
On August 12, 1943, the navy decided on trying the
second phase of the experiment with the entire ship
and full crew aboard. This has been called not only the
Philadelphia Experiment, but also the Rainbow Project
and the Montauk Experiment. The Eldridge not only
became invisible from radar, but it’s claimed that the
ship was engulfed with a green haze, just before it
completely disappeared from the Philadelphia harbor
for four hours, until it reappeared. It is said that the
ship transported through space and time, as witnessed
by seaman Carlos Miguel Allende aboard the S.S. Freo-
seth, appearing in Norfolk, Virginia, 275 miles away,
and then disappearing. [3]
When the ship returned and was inspected, they
claimed to have found sailors fused with the bulkhead,
their bodies sticking out of walls and decks. Some sai-
lors reportedly walked into thin air and vanished. [4]
According to reports of

Leaving the Garden

By Michael Jones
Michael Lynn Jones has experienced odd unexplained events since early childhood. Having grown
up with interests in the paranormal fields he now dedicates his free time in helping others dealing
with the abduction phenomena.

He is the Founder of the Alien Abductee website: http://www.alienabductee.org and currently is a ParaNexus Staff
Member performing the duties of Technical Development Coordinator.
He is also the Founder of P.A.R.A. (Pinnacle Anomalous Research Association) website: http://www.paraplanet.org
based out of Maumelle, Arkansas. His technical background covers Theoretical Physics, Computer Sciences, Avia-
tion Industry, Parapsychology, and the Arts.

Summary: Brief insight as to how one decides to face the abduction phenomena; what to expect, what's to gain.

Gardens have been a source of beauty and respite
for thousands of years. From the Hanging Gardens of
ancient Babylon to the modern-day botanical gardens
found around the world, these spaces of exquisitely
cultivated land have served as quiet and beautiful
places for many to find solace, introspection, and
meaning.
We could even liken our own inner
reality to a “garden,” of sorts. In our
Garden, we enjoy a comfortable place
defined by our own individual version of
reality that provides a sense of security
and control. We keep our Garden
“beautiful” by only accepting ideas and
concepts that don’t conflict with our
sense of reality. If something in life is
too painful, we can just block it out
with denial. And then on we go, never
giving it a second thought—until it be-
comes too large to ignore. Such is the
experience of alien abductees.
The Alien Abduction Scenario pro-
duces an unfortunate situation of things
with which to comprehend, on top of
the average human existence. One can only surmise or
postulate as to why this phenomenon happens. If you
are the person involved, to know when to ask questions
and whether to even start asking questions is a conun-
drum. Reality for many is what they choose it to be so
they can deal with tragedies, life, and everyday com-
mon events.
Those dealing with what they may suspect as Alien
Abduction Scenarios are dealing with the proverbial
Pandora’s Box. They have odd memories, missing time,
strange events happening around them. Memories,
among other things, has haunted them all their lives
and the memories still persists in their mind, always
reminding them that something out of the ordinary has
happened and may be still happening. Should one de-
cide to delve into the depths of the phenomena, a long
hard road of discovery is ahead. For
abductees who choose to turn their
backs on the phenomena, the ghosts
of memory will tend to haunt them
and, in all likelihood, they will find
themselves continually wondering,
“is it real?”
So how does one choose to open this
box of memories? How do you know
if it is in your best interest to know?
To ascertain the validity of the
memories or events that you’ve
questioned, ask yourself, “Am I fan-
tasy prone? Is there some medical
reason for what I’m experiencing?
Are all the fears and the anxiety
based in truth? How can I really
know?”
Validation comes in many colors,
it can be internal by just knowing from past memories
and surrounding proof or it can be as basic as having
physical anomalies such as bruising and needle marks
appear overnight. Long lists of attributes are common
among abductees including:
• Missing Time
• Dreams or Experiences of interacting with entities
o Seeing ghosts, spirits, dead loved ones
o Seeing larger than life dolls, mannequins with
large eyes

6
 ParaNexus Newsletter
o Seeing larger than life animals that walk up-
right like humans with large eyes
o Seeing Greys, Nordics, Mantis, or other type
of perceived aliens
• Physical Anomalies
o Bruising
o Abrasions
o Soreness
o Phantom allergic reaction during the night
o Nose bleeds or discharge of odd coloured flu-
ids or biological matters
• Mental Anomalies
o Lethargic thinking processes upon awakening
o Memory flashes that have no points of refer-
ence
o Hyperawareness of one’s surroundings
o The feeling that something has happened
with no apparent reference or with no direct memory
o Urges to move from a current residence for
no reason or solid basis
o Anti-social; not wanting to be around people
• Paranormal Events
o Unexplained Noises
o Items that move by themselves
o Unexplained electronic anomalies such as
radios and/or appliances turning on or off by them-
selves
o Unexplained lights
o UFO sightings
o Entity sightings
This list is not a conclusive indicator of the abduc-
tion experience nor do all of the items have to be true
to indicate that abduction has occurred; these are just
a few of the things reported by abductees. Finding that
these items in the list pertain to you does not necessar-
ily mean you’re an abductee. A few of the items such
as the physical and mental aspects can be the basis for
finding the appropriate medical physician to assist you.
Check with a doctor or therapist to ensure that there
are no underlying physiological reasons for your suspi-
cions, such as stress.
Confirming that medical assistance is not required
leads us to the next question, “What is going on?” and
specifically, “Do I really want to know?” The experi-
ence of knowing something odd is happening can be
confusing and intimidating. Once you have decided that
something strange is going on, how do you proceed?
The first thing to take into consideration is your well-
being. Ask yourself. “Is this situation affecting my life
7
negatively? Does it affect my family, friends and my
job? Can I live without knowing?”
These questions are important in discerning whether
you should investigate this situation further. This situa-
tion should not be taken lightly nor should you put it on
the back burner. The fact that you are reading this ar-
ticle could indicate that you desire to make a decision.
This fact in itself is not only profound, but also pro-
duces a major paradigm shift in one’s nature and belief
system.
Making the Decision to Stay in the Garden
There is some wisdom in staying in the garden and
not exploring the world at hand when dealing with the
abduction phenomena. For myself I was not able to
choose this route due to the overwhelming aspects of
my own situation. I cannot count how many times I
found myself wishing I knew nothing of my experience.
Many abductees who suspect that something may
have happened will say things like, “I’m not an abduc-
tee! I’m an experiencer!” or “I’m a contactee!” An-
other common aspect of denial is when the abductee
says that he or she was just seeing things and then let
their minds categorize it as such. Others will maintain
nothing happened and soon forget the experience alto-
gether due to their minds not being able to cope with
such things.
I don’t recommend denial as means to an end to
others, but in dealing with this subject if you choose to
deny that abductions may be happening, and it is not
affecting you directly, and all you have are memories,
occasional physical symptoms that you can deal with
and nothing more, by all means go this route. Making
the decision to not dig any deeper will allow it to be-
come an insubstantial memory. You will need to under-
stand that denying your abduction experience could
lead to allowing denial to become a habitual process in
your everyday life.
East of Eden’s Gate - Leaving the Garden
Human beings on the whole are one of the most
adaptable and resilient creatures on this planet. We
evolve from necessity and diversity, almost to the point
of thriving from such negative aspects of life. We at all
times in our life are constantly reassessing who we are,
where we are, and our situation. This is part of our sur-
vival instinct and should be embraced and used to its
fullest extent. The willingness or the want of knowing
about the abduction scenario and how you fit in how-
ever is well outside the norm of human existential
 ParaNexus Newsletter
perception. You need to both understand the boundary
you are crossing and how much this will interfere with
your perceptions of reality, religion, human-kind, and
the very core of who you are. A classical way of stating
this change in perception is having a “Paradigm Shift”.
I assure you through researching and finding out what
has happened will lead to a point in your life that has
meaningful and frightening moments.
So how do you proceed in getting real information
about your abductions? There are many ways of accom-
plishing this. For myself, I started by keeping a journal
of events. In this journal I record the date, time, and
description of what happened, photos of my wounds,
photos of evidence, maps, anything pertaining to the
event. I also document all regressions, outside local
events and other oddities happening to friends and
family. In the area below the journal entry I always
write down my feelings, what was my mental and
physical state that day, what I think happened, what I
remember, notes on events surrounding the abduction.
This produces a log book, which in time will start show-
ing commonalities between the events. The important
factor here is documenting occurrences; this will both
add validity for you but will also lend proof to others
when the time arises.
What about regressions? Regressions are just as im-
portant as keeping your journal. With my experience
and having so many memory flashbacks, questionable
periods of my life that included missing time, waking
up to finding doors unlocked, windows open, and so
forth, I found it important to explore this. With abduc-
tions there are two basic things going on:
1) The abductors do not want you to remember
your experiences and mask memory much in the same
way you can record over an audio cassette tape.
2) The reality of what you have observed may be so
farfetched and/or terrifying in your mind to the point
of your mind either forgetting or replacing the images
with more comfortable scenes.
Both of these obviously point to the reasons for the
missing time phenomena, among the long list of odd
memories, dreams, and experiences we have and re-
tain.
The one thing I would like to mention here is in
finding a reputable Hypnotherapist; do your research as
this is invaluable and will save you disappointment and
frustration. Do not take this lightly; you are allowing
someone to explore who you are and your very essence
of being. Find someone you can trust, that takes the
therapist/client relationship seriously, and who is not
judgmental and will allow you to explore what has
8
happened to you. The next thing to know in dealing
with your Hypnotherapist is during the regressions that
their techniques do not lead you to answers. For in-
stance when the Hypnotherapist asks “Do you see little
four foot tall grey people?” is leading the question. An
appropriate question would be “What do you see? Can
you describe them? How many are there?” In this way
your answers will be more valid, this will be more proof
that you can access and will not be judged as harshly
by outside reviewers. Always try to get your Hypno-
therapist to record your sessions so you have an audio
log for to review. This will both allow you to validate in
your own mind as to what has happened and provide a
sense of continuity in the missing time scenarios. I can
only attest to my own experiences with regression, it
literally opened my memories like a book. I do know
from personal time being under hypnosis that you will
not remember or go to places in the mind’s eye when
you’re not ready. Hypnosis is nothing like what you see
in movies and should be viewed as valid as any other
technique of memory retrieval. Retrieving memories
through hypnosis is not concrete proof of anything. The
Hypnotherapist must use good judgment and discretion
so as to not implant or distort memories in the subject.
Physical evidence can be collected. The main prob-
lem most abductees run into with collecting physical
evidence is for some odd reason they destroy evidence.
Either through not knowing, accidental handling, or
implanted suggestions by the abductors, good evidence
gets lost or contaminated. I myself can attest to the
implanted suggestions as I have actually watched my-
self flush implants down the toilet and then woke up
wondering why in the world would I do that. That in
itself is another problem I will talk about in a minute.
Most of the evidence that you will find are going to be
on your own body such as fingerprint bruising on differ-
ent parts of your body, odd needle marks, and symmet-
rical shaped bumps under the skin (suggesting im-
plants). Make sure and always take photos if possible of
any physical anomalies on your body. There have been
some attempts at collecting other data such as laying
sheets of tinfoil down on the floor, then laying a towel
or soft rug over the foil next to bed or where you know
the abductors enter. In essence this will allow you to
capture footprints if any. Others have tried to video
tape their abductors; this is a hard thing to do, reports
say the abductors have a tendency to get the abductee
to get up and turn off the video or turn the camera so
no one can see. There are many other techniques I ha-
ven’t covered here but those are the basic ones. The
main thing to remember is to document it regardless of
how insubstantial as it may seem. Always take pictures,
collect any samples of evidence by putting it in a bag
and dating it then place it in the freezer. The main
thing you are doing for yourself and others are produc-
ing credible evidence and that is very important in
 ParaNexus Newsletter
validating your experience.
In dealing with your situation and what to expect on
the whole when you decide to look into what is hap-
pening can be a little intimidating and has aspects of
being an outcast. There are many things you have to
understand are a part of this life changing awareness. I
have never heard of anyone dying from this and for the
most part it seems to have more mental aspects to deal
with than physical. Implanted suggestions, memory
suppression, physical abnormalities, social standing,
dealing with weird happenings, among other things.
Implanted suggestions are exactly what the phrase
says “implanted”. I can only offer some insight to this
odd and very out-of-control experience. This is proba-
bly one of the most distressing parts of the abductee
situation in the fact that in some form or fashion our
abductors leave instructions on how we are to carry
ourselves. It is nothing like “Go Assassinate Someone!”
or “Go Kill Yourself” but is very subtle and plays into
what the abductors necessity of not being found out or
discovered by humans. There are moments in my life
where I actually was an observer watching my body
carry out tasks or actions that I know for a fact were
not of my own thought processes. After it was done all I
could say was “What the @#$$ was that?” and it was
very upsetting. Like I said and I want to restate, abduc-
tors suggestions do not include harming others or your-
self, but are to control any release of evidence. As I
had stated previously, there have been times where I
would go to the bathroom and had to blow my nose,
even though I had clear sinuses and could breathe
freely. Upon trying to blow my nose, a bloody discharge
would come out with something in it. I would look at it
with curiosity and then promptly flush it. Knowing all
along what I was observing and understanding to keep
it, I would still flush it for no obvious reason. This kind
of situation happens on a continual basis and is some-
thing you may run into or notice over time.
Another oddity is the continual memory suppres-
sion. This is one of the hardest things to deal with; I
have stated many times before that the not knowing
will kill you faster than the actual knowledge of some-
thing horrible happening. This is where regression ther-
apy will help you retrieve lost time and memories that
are blocked. The one thing that should be observed
with regressions and memory masking is the abductors
for whatever reasons do at times seem to leave levels
or layers of memory masks. During a recent regression I
was taken back to the moment of the abduction. I had
observed greys and what they were doing in my room,
but the obvious wasn’t as obvious and we dug deeper
only to find out that more actually had occurred. Now
whether it was due to my level of fear or it was due to
the abductors masking my memory in such a manner,
9
not all the information was available at first. One can
never really know as to when this situation is happen-
ing or to what end. I do know that it is disconcerting
knowing that there may be layer upon layer of masking
going on so as to make it possible for me to never know
the whole truth. So for yourself be aware that:
1) Memory suppression is part of the abductee
situation
2) What you remember and what is the truth are
going to be different in some of your regressions
3) Understand that you are still you, no amount of
memory suppression or implanted suggestions can ever
change your identity, morals, or your nature of being.
There will be some things that you will have to
adapt to. How you deal with other humans will be one
of the main things that you will have to change. There
are varying opinions as to how to go about this. How
you deal with this is entirely up to you, for myself I ap-
proached the subject for many years in seclusion, not
telling anyone of my circumstances and making light of
the odd things that would happen in front of others.
Understanding that the subject of alien abduction is
related to “whack jobs” in social circles will provide
you with enough restrictions on how you behave or talk
about this with others. I do find about one in 1000 per-
sons out there are willing to listen with an open mind
and not judge you for your situation. On the whole I
guess the best advice I could ever give is using your
own judgment in dealing with others. Your understand-
ing of humanity, social aspects, and human behaviour
will deepen over time; this is a side-effect of being
outside of normal social environments.
As far as having a relationship with a significant other
you must take into consideration numerous factors. The
one thing that is obvious and should be approached
with care is “Do I tell my significant other about the
abductions?” It is my firm belief that it is extremely
important to take responsibility for including someone
in the abduction phenomena. If you do not tell the
other person in your life about what is going on and
they discover it, the trust is broken if not their very
ego from having their sense of reality attacked. I have
lost good people in my life due to not advising them of
the chance of what might happen by being around me.
If you respect others it is a requirement in my book
that you share what is going on. You do take a chance
on running off potential friends and loved-ones, but
understand that they are not ready for this level of re-
ality and must be respected for their choice in staying
away from you. Be prepared to hear hurtful comments;
understand that these comments people make are from
their fears and not understanding. You may find your-
self in a very lonely place for the rest of your life. The
 ParaNexus Newsletter
point is that you have taken responsibility by protecting
other humans from your situation. I by no means am
telling you to become a hermit, actually what I am tell-
ing you is find people that are willing to share in your
experiences and life, this is what defines someone who
really loves you.
“What about friends? Should they know?” This
question is all dependent upon your situation. If your
friends are close to experiencing your abductions and
they’ve had “near misses” as far as the experience, I
believe it being of the utmost importance to fill them
in on what is going on. In all likelihood they already
have some sort of idea that something odd is happening
but don’t have all the facts. I used to live in a large
house with two other gentlemen; we were sharing the
bills and making our way through life. One of my
friends, David, had been noticing odd things like actual
glowing discs outside the home in the adjoining forest
and was seeing what he thought were ghosts. The other
person named Jeff was from a religious background and
had a firm belief that the house had a demon in it. I sat
both of them down and tried my best to explain what
they were experiencing and amazingly enough David
was accepting of this and continued being my friend,
Jeff on the other hand still firmly believed that the
demon in the house was real and that I was now the
reason for this entity messing with him. This is a prime
example of how someone’s belief system will affect
their perception. Needless to say Jeff has never tried
to contact me again and when I do see him in public
acts like I don’t exist. David moved away to another
state and still keeps in contact with me. Be assured
that you will run into this type of situation and you will
soon find out who the real friends are.
If you have acquaintances and they don’t seem to
be aware of your abductions, they need not know. This
is a subject that should never be broached until some-
one asks you in seriousness about it. Another considera-
tion is how much will your friends believe, like I stated
earlier not all people are geared the same, some can
handle any information tossed at them, others can’t
handle simple everyday situations. Just use your best
judgment in dealing with your friends.
“It’s the little things that make life interesting.”
I’m not sure where that quote is from but it is so apro-
pos concerning paranormal events happening around
you. You may or may not have odd things happening
around you; for me they are very common. Small in-
stances of odd unexplained events such as things being
moved where they shouldn’t be, things actually moving
in front of you, seeing odd lights in the house or else-
where, hearing something run across your roof that
sounds like children running, experiencing time run
backward while your observing it, watching as time
10
stops completely, experiencing time skips, and having
precognitive memories. These are just a few of the re-
ported events that happen to abductees outside of the
abduction experience. It is not uncommon among ab-
ductees to report paranormal events outside of their
abductions. I have experienced many odd and fascinat-
ing things that actually were entertaining to observe,
other things were more irritating.
We finally arrive at the subject of the abduction. “How
do I deal with this now that I know this is real?” There
is no tried and true method to dealing with being ab-
ducted; every person will deal with this subject differ-
ently. There are some general characteristics that are
in common. The first one that is very common among
abductees is living two lives, you have the times you
are dealing with common everyday elements and then
you have the other times where you are dealing with
the abduction scenario. I have noticed that the two
very rarely overlap but they do on occasions and lend
to those moments where the other witnesses either
accept or deny what they’ve seen.
The fact that the alien entities exist and now you
know humans aren’t the only people in universe is a big
pill to swallow. It’s one thing to make the statement of
belief “I know that there are other civilizations in the
Universe” due to a logical deduction. Finding yourself
smack in front of an alien and interacting with them
offers a level of reality that most only postulate or
dream of. In dealing with the abduction phenomena
you can only surmise as to the reasons for the abduc-
tions, much less understand why the interaction is so
one-sided and we are treated as live-stock. I would
contend that most of the control going on in abduction
scenarios are the result of making sure humans are as
compliant as possible and perhaps even to protect both
sides from physical harm. I have my suspicions that it is
mainly to protect the aliens and to keep us sedated as
possible due to the experimentation going on.
I can only describe my emotions and how I deal with
this situation, every person will be different. For my-
self I went through years of hiding from people and
staying to myself because of the weirdness of the sub-
ject outside of the general persecution of people who
were not accepting. I find that dealing with the social
aspects and acceptance from others are probably the
most upsetting situation when it comes to being an ab-
ductee. You are not allowed the luxury of just being
the normal person on the block once people find out. In
all likelihood you will be labelled the “whack job” by
people you thought you knew and neighbours.
As far as you dealing with the abductions and the
aliens involved, it may be frightening and it may be
something you have a hard time assimilating into what
you know, but it is what it is. There is no amount of
 ParaNexus Newsletter
advice anyone including myself can give other abduc-
tees, nor will I try, on how you deal with this. We all
can agree on the fact that it does change who we are
inside and how we view reality, we all can agree what
is happening is not right, we can all agree on how terri-
fying it really is, but when it is all said and done how
each of us deal with this is a personal struggle of
growth and awareness of ourselves and how we deal
with it. There is no magic pill that exists that will make
this go away or not exist. Each of us is left alone in
dealing with it when the day is done. To know others
deal with being abducted might console you but you
still have to come to terms with yourself, in who you
are, and know that no matter how you deal with these
events, it persists and continues without concern, emo-
tion or thoughts of how you feel. It is important to
know, you have to understand that when you choose to
look, you cannot go back, you cannot renege on reality.
There is no way to turn off your awareness of this once
you enter into it.
Know that the moment you decide to go this route
you have chosen to take control of your situation and
by doing this allow solutions to eventually present
themselves. Maintaining awareness and learning from
your experiences will in time offer answers. I cannot
say that in my lifetime a solution will ever be found,
but I do know that it is an eventuality that the more
abductees that decide to take a stand and learn from
the experience, the closer we will be to finding a solu-
tion to making the abductions stop. We should not only
walk through this door of perception and observe, we
should also carry with us the information to share with
others as to produce the end result of a solution. The
abduction experience in itself at this moment in time
seems to be unstoppable; I contend that this is due to
the continual lack of information and the disinforma-
tion that is rampant in our society. When you decide to
learn more, you’re allowing yourself to adapt and
come. This is the whole point of taking responsibility of
what you are enduring. You must understand that in
opening your eyes to this phenomenon are only the first
steps into the reality of what needs to happen. The
entire society of abductees have long been divided by
fear and ridicule and by taking steps of getting control
back into your life and sharing with others will anything
good come of it.
I realize that what I have been talking about is
frightening to some and may seem extremely hard-core
11
with some of my statements. You have to realize this is
reality and there aren’t any places that resemble a
Disney cartoon, there aren’t and places that rain
gummi-bears and chocolate when you need them to.
The world is fraught with horrible things and we must
do our best to endure and change them if possible. The
abduction experience is no more terrible than what we
see every day in the news with murders, terrorism,
war, crimes, and accidents that kill. What makes the
abduction experience so different is the fact abductees
are not taken seriously and has been placed in the
“crazy” arena. The media, government and other or-
ganizations have gone out of their way to make sure
the general public has the view-point of the abduction
experience as being people who need attention or peo-
ple that have medical issues. I find this distressing,
demeaning and demoralizing. The people that experi-
ence the abduction phenomena are from all walks of
life and have no need for attention. In most cases it is
just the opposite, they don’t want any attention and
find it a scary prospect to be placed in a position of
interest by the public. Abductees on the whole just
want to have normal lives like everyone else and find it
hard to fit into society knowing what they know.
Understanding where you stand in this decision is
extremely important. You have to decide on choosing
between continuing your life with residual memories
and unexplained events happening all the time or tak-
ing responsibility for your situation and learning, grow-
ing and overcoming its downfalls, I recommend the lat-
ter with the understanding that you are joining the
ranks of people that are trying to change this situation.
I, myself am a proponent of being active and learning
all you can about your situation. If it were a different
circumstance there would be no question as to whether
you would make the decision on finding out all you
could to make it stop. For instance, in dealing with
cancer, once you’re told that you’re dealing with can-
cer you would naturally go out of your way to find
every option in dealing with it and eradicating this dis-
ease. Much in the same fashion one should approach
the abduction scenario with every bit of the same pas-
sion and intensity to gain control over this situation.
There is no way for me to tell you what the correct
answer is for you, I can only explain to you what may
lay in “Pandora’s Box”. At this point it is for you to de-
cide and continue your life as you see fit.
