Did you see the number on the bottom of the "To Serve Man" patch? There is a reason they used an alien.

Yes, that's the Sci-Fi one. Not great, but leaps and bounds in front of the History Channel one, which I've stopped watching, and every time I try anyway, a minute or two make me turn it off.

And each one looks like it has a blue editing halo around it.

I know jack all about image analysis. But the shadows on the building are on the right, and quite strong (or rather the sun on the left is), while the shadows on the things in the sky, nicely angled so that they would indeed pick up some sun, are on the left.

When I blogged about internet paranormal radio, I wasn't familiar yet with the Paracast, though I later went back and added it briefly. http://spookyparadigm.blogspot.com/2006/12/radio-grapevine-of-spooky-paradigm.html But if you want to attribute a quote, "The Paracast regularly...

I've only read Passport to Magonia and an article he did for Journal of Scientific Exploration, though I've browsed one of the trilogy books. I'll pick them up eventually now that they're back in print.

I thought about the word disappointed when I wrote that. But I decided against it, because I did want to hear the stuff that we heard, too. Was it as rapid-fire like the Dolan interview? No, but that seems to not be compatible with with Vallee's style (and lets not forget he's being careful and...

I thought this was really good. It was nice to hear someone to say unequivaocally in a media appearance "I studied this for years, and ETH doesn't work. Period. Stop." As D. Biedny notes, Vallee is diplomatic, but I think with some authors in the various spooky fields, there is that desire...

Yeah, I typically listen to most Binnall interviews, but there was no way I was going to do that.

The best ones are those where someone has done a lot of in-depth research comes on, and the question-style gets new insights or ideas out of them. This doesn't work with the carnival barkers, and yes there have been some on the show, who know how to basically give an answer to any question with...

Looks like the Sci-Fi channel show is probably kaput. I would have at least tried watching it a few more times, vs. the awfulness of the History Channel one http://www.heraldtribune.com/article/20080226/BLOG32/450508074

I wasn't going to download this one, but it looks like I should.

Sightings was better, as both entertainment and as a paranormal show. As entertainment, the idea that there really was a news show dedicated to the paranormal was very entertaining. And in terms of a paranormal show, it highlighted cases (Skinwalker Ranch, San Luis Valley from O'Brien's...

He doesn't do research as much as he chronicles. As he talks about in his book, as a young college dropout (he came into an inheritance) in the early 1950s, he travelled around with the intention of writing a research book on flying saucers. But within a year, he decided that the subject of real...

I like Jim Moseley's work. He has been a de facto anthropologist for decades, and from that perspective Saucer Smear and his memoirs are invaluable. But his activities in South America leave a lot to be desired. I've been tempted to write a commentary on his book for an archaeology...

Does anybody know the deal with UFODNA? It seems to have come out of nowhere, and is kind of awesome.

New York isn't so surprising since the team was from NYU, and the early tests were in Pennsylvania, suggesting at least some of the material was produced in New York itself. http://csicop.org/si/9507/roswell.html Again, the context is an eyewitness testimony, recorded decades later, so...

I don't know if there are images of the tape, but Moore talks about it in his chapter in UFO Crash at Roswell: Genesis of a Modern Myth. (Benson, Saler, Moore 1997). Maybe he is misremembering or lying, but that is the source Moseley is coming from. Moore says the tape was surplus...

I'm listening to the Paracast interview with William Birnes, and he just was agreeing enthusiastically that "UFO" needs to be uncoupled from "ET" Then why is he constantly talking about "aliens" on the UFO Hunters?

Even Jacques Vallee couldn't entice me to listen. Though I suppose it might have been interesting for Vallee to test his control hypothesis against the rot that that show epitomizes.
