Linda Howe once looked into cat mutilations & came to Vancouver BC to study reports of half-cats found. She suspected something stranger was responsible than predators or animal abusing humans. A year & a half ago, I myself found in Vancouver the hindquarters of a cat that had been covered over...

Jerome's suggestion Ray Palmer wrote fictional stories under pseudonyms for Fate mag, presenting them as true, reminds me of a Fate article I read as a 10 or 11 year old boy in the mid 1960s whose veracity I later doubted. I read it at my fave smoke shop's news stand I used to go to for comic...

[This must be my first post here in a few years although I'm not sure why I left it so long, or why today's the day, as I have continued listening to the show fairly often. I see The Forum has been revamped. I don't think "like" votes existed last time I was here. That's a good addition.] Re...

Sad perils of being in the public eye...you potentially become a target for the misplaced opprobrium, or some unwholesome obsession, from one of many thousands or millions out there, of variable mental stability & health, who become aware of one. Forget fame, I like my anonymity! No wonder...

I too found & watched that Nedaa video earlier today via a google search. Excellent idea to post it! It's well worth watching. Entertaining & informative. It far surpasses the written account (penned by the UFOlogist shown above in the video still) findable online. 31 known witnesses saw the...

Good, I'm glad others too recall reading alternate accounts, corroborating my memory, of the '38 The War of the Worlds broadcast, that suggested the real hoax was the "mass panic" hoax. It's interesting Budd Hopkins apparently recalls hearing the original broadcast and remembers fear gripping...

The April 18/10 show talked about Welles' famous 1938 Broadcast of a dramatization of H.G. Welles' novel. Everyone on the Paracast round table who commented seemed to accept the commonly held belief that the broadcast caused widespread panic in the streets of America, with people in fear that...

A recent (Feb. 2010) show referenced this gem from a few years back, a show I'd unfortunately missed the first time around, so thought I'd belatedly check it out. A fascinating, entertaining, very eerie tale, made all the more so because I see no reason to doubt David's & Bill's account as...

I've remained a regular listener, but haven't posted on the Forums for ages, but here goes... The guest Dr. Rorke reminded me of Jacques Vallee's Messengers of Deception book when he talked about gov't infiltration of UFO and New Age groups and cults, and the spreading of disinformation by...

Karras mentions that Vallee writes of a mysterious American group that bought up all the original negatives of photos possessed by Brazil newspapers of the incredible, uncountable UFO cases from Brazil's Amazonia region of a few decades back. Karras wonders if this group might be the shadowy...

I'm still wondering what ever happened to the new Vallee interview The Paracast had set up a few months back. Did Jacques cancel at the last minute or something? On the retail market for Vallee's books: I was pleased to receive an email notification from Powell's Books last night saying a copy...

If Jacques Vallee was interviewed several weeks ago for a Paracast podcast, when, I wonder, will it become available? I keep checking back to the site thinking, "it's got to be this week", but never does Jacques' name appear![/u]

Questions for Dr. Vallee: [I also posted these on the "Questions for Guests" thread] 1) Physicist Dr. Jack Sarfatti, who knew Vallee, wrote about Jacques' '96 UFO novel "Fastwalker" thus: "[Fastwalker] is an essentially factual report thinly disguised as sci-fi"...[and]..."Vallee's book...

Questions for Dr. Vallee: 1) Physicist Dr. Jack Sarfatti, who knew Vallee, wrote about Jacques' '96 UFO novel "Fastwalker" thus: "[Fastwalker] is an essentially factual report thinly disguised as sci-fi"...[and]..."Vallee's book is not really sci-fi. It is what Tim Leary called 'science...

Of the 3 "Trilogy" books, Vallee's said he thinks the 2nd, "Confrontations" is the most important. Personally I found it and the 1st one, "Dimensions" the most riveting to read. "Revelations" wasn't my fave. I notice in "Revelations" he covers some of the themes of his earlier, '79 book...
