My money is on Archie Bedford. Enough said.

Two quick points to address some statements made above: 1. I have met "Archie Bedford" in person, so I am one of the twenty fellow Paracast Forum members who know his true identity. He is a well balanced individual (sorry to have to put it that way, Archie!) who is extremely clear and...

Archie, sorry to digress, but have you or any abductee you know & trust tried to set up a quality video camera in your bedroom over a period of time to assess what actually happens? One always hears stories how the camera gets 'switched off', or how the abduction then occurs elsewhere, but all...

Archie, thanks for your post above. This is exactly what is needed on these internet Fora: more thoughtful commentators with firsthand experience, who are well researched, but not necessarily blind followers.

Frankly, a show with researchers who have not been in the media, such as June Steiner or Jed Turnbull, may be the most insightful, if they are willing to openly discuss on the radio what they have found through their work. This would address the viewpoint, one way or another, that this...

This all is exactly why, as a matter of Due Process, we require accusers to confront the accused in public proceedings when serious charges such as these are being made. No one on this Forum knows who "Emma Woods" is (or, in fact, "James", if they are the same person), can test "her" (or "his")...

A few quick thoughts in an effort to balance the dialogue: 1. Research into the abduction phenomena extends beyond Hopkins and Jacobs. John Mack, William Simon, John Carpenter and other qualified mental health professionals, subject to ethical standards and various review panels, appear to...

Angle of Ioren, three points: (i) please show me exactly where I state in this thread, or elsewhere, that I am convinced that mankind did not go to the moon. Please be precise. For such a long, definitive charge like the one you level above, you really should be specific in your statements...

I beg your pardon? Anytime you want to compare IQ, academic achievements, professional achievements, net worth created (not inherited), etc., I am more than happy to do so. I don't need, and won't stand for, your bullshit comments. Understand? If you happen to actually look at the evidence...

The following video discusses the Van Allen belts and their associated radiation, quoting a March 1959 article from Scientific American written by James van Allen himself. Copied below is the first of seven videos on YouTube:

Chris, does Ted do his research for public consumption, or he is one of these researchers who does it primarily for his own information & enjoyment? My sense is the latter given the dearth of books and public speaking engagements.

Three points: (i) who is saying that anyone should get a free pass or less scrutiny because they are "respected"? I honestly don't see anyone making that claim on this Forum. Ultimately everyone needs to provide support in some form, even if it is supporting testimony from another credible...

To be clear, nothing in what I wrote above should be read to mean anyone is beyond constructive criticism, or that our collective bullshit meters should be switched off when a particular view or set of facts happen comes from a 'field investigator.' Everyone should expect to provide proof, as...

We will need to respectfully disagree then. I have never seen anyone argue against the virtues of "experience" before, so you probably rank as the first! I believe the touchstone in this debate is whether someone is overly rigid or closed minded in their views of the subject, and based upon...

Ron, I agree. There is no substitute for 'on-the-job' experience, and Phillips has plenty of it. Short of Phillips being a fraud or an idiot (an there is no evidence of either), then you have to take careful note of his work, which is done in conjunction / consultation with qualified...
