Once I got going. Only took me ten years. But now I'm going through all the hundreds -- literally -- of books on UFOs, paranormal, metaphysical and related topics. Organizing by genre/theme, mostly, but some by author. Example: all the Keel books in one group, all the Vallee. For a library book nerd like myself (I was so happy when the school I worked for gave me the library job!) this is a fun project.</p><p>Books going back to the 1940s. Same old, one might say, dismissively. What's the use in going over old stuff? Well, we can learn from the past. There's a difference between rehashing old stuff just because you're lazy or it's easy and going over it because it's interesting and one might learn something in comparing/contrasting with the current.</p><p>There's also something interesting about comparing different editions of the same book.

<span style="font-size: x-large;">The "Flatwoods Monster" </span></div>
<span style="font-size: x-large;">Returns for the 63rd Anniversary!</span><br />
by Alfred Lehmberg<br />
<div>
<br />
<br /></div>
2015 marks the 63rd anniversary of the "Flatwoods Monster" incident! Thanks to Frank Feschino, Jr., our intrepid investigator who reopened and investigated this case in 1991, this close encounter event continues to appear in the news even after all of these years. You see folks, Feschino's truly exhaustive and painstakingly extensive research into this case—the longest such research in the affair's history—brought forth many unknown aspects of the incident to documented light!<br />
<br />
Fortuitously, this ultimately revealed a sadly shocking truth behind a <i>patent historical obfuscation</i> and a <i>well-orchestrated government cover-up</i>. Such seems <u>abundantly</u> so.<br />
<br />
Remember, reader, that 1952 is the year of the biggest UFO flap <b><i>ever,</i></b> and documented orders to the military to shoot those UFOs down sure seems to culminate with shot up and crash-landed UFO occupants escaping and evading like American pilots would if shot down, <i>themselves</i>, in hostile territory. Such <i>continues </i>to seem abundantly so, eh?<br />
<br />
Subsequently, Feschino writes books and composes varying treatments regarding the eerie Flatwoods case and, for years, travels many thousands of miles throughout the country giving well received lectures, having tireless book-signings and giving jaw-dropping interviews. As a result of his effort Feschino and his remarkable study has been featured in newspapers, magazines, radio programs, television news broadcasts, one History Channel TV program, forgetting <i>countless </i>Internet articles. Such <b><u>is</u></b> so! Why this ever-smoldering, if outre and unsatisfied, interest world wide?<br />
<br />
...<b>Air War with ET,</b> reader... It is as wholly unimaginable as it is unimaginably unacceptable. ...But for the data it would be laughable and forgotten out of hand. This is just to <i>start</i>.<br />

So many researchers, investigators, organizations, pundits, witnesses, UFO television programs, books, theories, speculations, …<br /><br />So many categories of experience. Genres of aliens and contact.<br /><br />And an equal amount of disagreement about all of the above. "Disagreement" ranging from mild difference of opinion to out and out attacks of the most vile nature, verging on the illegal.<br /><br />Then there is the Drawing Of Lines In The Sand. UFO groups (Gatekeepers, UFO Police, Scientific Organizations) get together and make damn sure they keep out any person or theory they don't like. They insist their take is the right take. They insist that "we'll never get anywhere" unless… unless their theory is accepted, unless the rest of us agree that such and such -- take your pick; contactees, abductions, ET, disclosure, -- is ridiculous. But more to the point, not just ridiculous but not to be entertained. Not to be <i>included.</i><br /><br />I'd like to see, not a "rigid scientific" UFO organization, or one that keeps all but one or two ideas within, but one that includes a diverse bunch. Call me a hippy, (which wouldn't be wrong) but the only way to begin to <i>maybe</i> get at It All is to look at the UFO phenomena/phenomenon with compassion, respect, and patience. That does not mean <i>agreement. </i><br /><i><br /></i><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; padding: 4px; position: relative; text-align: center;"><tbody>

<i><br /></i><i><br /></i>Instead, the majority of UFO people are running around fighting, attacking, sneering at others within. In other words, as had been said many times by others, the inhabitants of UFO Land are eating our young. With friends like that who needs enemies?<br /><br />I think part of the problem is the crazy need to be accepted by mainstream society, by the institutions considered respectable (Big Science, academia, politics even) and main stream media. If only, think many UFO Land residents, we stick to …. pick your favorite: rigid scientific methods, and so on. Then we'd be accepted and taken seriously and everything will be cool and oh yeah, we'll also find out what it's all about.<br /><br />Not one bit likely. All that will happen if we stay on that road is the continual fighting amongst ourselves, as well as the hoaxes, attention seekers and cheesy carny-like creeps that infest our fringes. Which is a part of the whole thing anyway, so not much use in bemoaning <i>that </i>reality.<br /><br />This is what happens in UFO Land. An individual, or often enough, a few individuals who get together, find a little plot of land that has a sign on it: "ET", "Disclosure," "Abductions", "MILABS," "Fairies", "Mind Control", "Nazis" -- you know. Then a barbed wire fence is erected around this little bit of land. Often, rocks are thrown at the neighboring plots of land. No one shares, everyone fights, and the Big Answer is still a long ways off. Which brings us to . . .<br /><br />The Big Answer. Expecting there <i>is</i> a Big Answer is equally futile. There might be one, I'm optimistic, but that's not my priority. It's the process, the quest, the journey, <i>the effect of these still unexplained encounters upon not just the individual but the culture surrounding the individual,</i> that is the issue. For now.<br /><br />Of course, there is much more beyond that, but baby steps, baby steps. Such as agreeing to disagree while working together, not apart.<br /><br /><br /><br /></div>

<br />UFO Gatekeepers. They come from all sides; uber-skeptics, debunkers, as well as those who believe, but insist on scientific approaches to exploring all that is UFO. The Gatekeepers wrangle one tentacle of the UFO Kraken, ignoring the rest -- even while it strangles them -- rejecting the elements that annoy them.<br /><br />They decide who gets to, what methods, which cases.<br /><br /><i><b>On what authority?!</b></i><br /><br />There is none.<br /><br /><iframe allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/wSkXYmExOnA?rel=0" width="420"></iframe><br /><div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: xx-small;">James Mcgaha, uber-debunker, asks UFO witness if "she's qualified to look at the sky"</span></div>
<br />There is no UFO Authority, no matter how desperately some want there to be. There is no Official Method, case, researcher, witness, spokesperson.<br /><br />No one is more, or less, qualified than anyone one else in this realm.<br /><br />As soon as someone starts spouting off a need for standards: academic, scientific, "legitimate" cases, etc. I do not take them seriously.<br /><br />Honesty is expected, at all times. That's about all we should expect. Sincere desire to explore, to share, to research, while holding the ball of integrity.<br /><br />Other than that, the rest is a form of bullying. Self-righteous and arrogant demands to join, if you don't, then you're not honest, sincere and legitimate.<br /><br /><div style="clear: both;">

Well, friends and cyber-neighbors, just when you thought all
was quiet on the "Flatwoods Monster" front, here's Frank
Feschino popping up with yet <i>another</i> compelling
data list—an evidentiary audit trail for the ufologically whacked out and
impossible, howsoever be it unsettlingly supported! That's right. Take a deep breath. We
begin. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
To start, this is a list regarding details about the <i>massive</i> amount of UFO sightings
occurring over the <st1:country-region>United States</st1:country-region>
on <st1:date day="12" month="9" year="1952">September 12, 1952</st1:date>.
A <b><i>massive</i></b>
amount as highly true as it is highly strange. I'll explain.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
As is the now running theme established by previous articles
I've written, I reiterate to say there were numerous UFOs
sighted on that particular September day. These
UFOs flew, landed and/or were forced down—by jets ordered to <i>shoot </i>them down—at <b><i>116
locations</i></b> in ten east coast States during that 21-hours of sustained activity
displayed on Feschino's well referenced "Master Map." Such has been established as so.<br />

<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Please take the proceeding at face value and for highly
suspected fact. Again. We're served by it! We've extinction to lose and the universe to gain? </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
See, 60 plus years after the fact, people remain <i><u>unaware</u></i>—even after 20 plus
years of his researching and sifting through the countless documents
he's discovered—<i>Feschino has meticulously
pinpointed 116 separate locations when and where UFOs were sighted...</i>
<b><i><u>that
day</u></i></b>! This all seems like it
might be a little bigger than a quaint country tale regarding 'haints, hillbillies,
and hoot-owls, eh? No, these seem to be
naught, frankly, but the insulting and facile go-to lies of lying liars. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Remember that Feschino is able to <i>segregate</i> these numerous objects sighted, in fact, by their <i>shapes</i>, <i>sizes</i>, <i>colors</i>, <i>manners</i>, <i>locations</i>, <i>flight</i> <i>paths</i> and <i>sighting</i> <i>times </i>along a
trace of their flight's route! A <u>picture</u>
forms when one knows <b>what</b> was <b>where</b>, <b>when</b>. He discovers that a jaw-dropping twenty-five different unidentified
objects—yes, 25 UFOs—had actually passed over the following ten eastern States:
<b><i>Delaware</i></b>,
<b><i>Maryland</i></b>,
<b><i>North</i></b>
<b><i>Carolina</i></b>,
<b><i>Ohio</i></b>,
<b><i>Pennsylvania</i></b>,
<b><i>South</i></b>
<b><i>Carolina</i></b>,
<b><i>Tennessee</i></b>,
<b><i>Virginia</i></b>,
<b><i>Washington</i></b>,
<b><i>DC</i></b>,
and <b><i>West</i></b>
<b><i>Virginia</i></b>. <st1:stockticker>CSI</st1:stockticker>'s
Papa Joe Nickell doesn't mention any of this, does he. A statement not a question. Nor does anyone at <st1:stockticker>CSI</st1:stockticker>
Central. Not even brought up to be
debunked, it's not party line over there.
Not dismissible so it's scary too—it's a thin ice for the traversing skeptibunky. One false step and it's through the ice and drowning in data.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Back at the ranch, the overwhelming amount of UFO sightings
revealed by Feschino on that day have come to be known as the "<st1:date day="12" month="9" year="1952">September 12, 1952</st1:date> Flap."
This flap is actualized by examining the flight
characteristics of the UFOs many witnesses described as having been
on fire, exploding with pieces falling away, making strange in-flight
noises, flying erratically at tree top level, and making
crash-landings. They sound busy.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
In the end, after compiling his findings,
Feschino establishes that four of the 25 UFOs sighted that day were apparently
damaged and struggling to stay airborne as they traveled over the <st1:country-region>United
States</st1:country-region>. They were making multiple landings as they
flew; in other words, Feschino tracked the <i>damaged</i>
(?!) UFOs as they puddle-jumped across the Nation like wounded birds. Combined,
these four troubled objects made a documented <b><i><u>thirteen</u></i></b> crash-landings in three
states, <st1:state><st1:place><b><i>Tennessee</i></b></st1:place></st1:state>,
<st1:state><st1:place><b><i>South Carolina</i></b></st1:place></st1:state>
and <st1:state><st1:place><b><i>West Virginia</i></b></st1:place></st1:state><b><i>.</i></b>
Not surprisingly, <st1:state>West
Virginia</st1:state> accounted for <b><i><u>ten</u></i></b> of those
crash-landings. Papa Joe? ...Hearing only crickets.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Feschino then plots the flight path trajectories of each
object. He is able to recreate a
scenario of events, the "revealed evidentiary trail," alluded to above
describing what <b><i>must</i></b> have occurred that day back on <st1:date day="12" month="9" year="1952">September 12, 1952</st1:date>. Follow the evidence, which
is to say... not beat it ahead of you with a stick the way the reflex and canted
skeptibunky or klasskurtxian contents himself.
See, it remains still, as pointed out above, that
the general public is unaware of the <i>magnitude</i> of UFO sightings documented as having
occurred across the <st1:country-region>United States</st1:country-region>
on that all but infamous day... especially the sightings occurring in <st1:place><st1:placename>Braxton</st1:placename>
<st1:placetype>County</st1:placetype></st1:place> around Flatwoods.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
I'd alluded to damaged UFOs above; <b><i>why</i></b> were these UFOs
damaged and <b><i>why</i></b> the abundance of UFO sightings on that day? To answer
the first question: only six weeks before the September 12, 1952 Flap, <b><i><u>the
USAF revealed White House approved "shoot down orders"... essentially declaring
war on flying saucers</u></i></b>! ...WAR! War with an ET high levels of government had
already admitted as <u>fact</u>. No
stretch at all, reader. Given truth, how
would the reader characterize it? War
and shots fired!</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
On July 29, the <u>Seattle Post Intelligencer</u> reports
the following Air Force revelation made the previous day: "Lt. Col.
Moncel Monts, Air Force Information Officer, states, <i>'The jet pilots are and have been under orders to investigate
unidentified objects and to <u>shoot them down</u> if they can't talk them down.'</i> "
Everyone knows how <i>chatty</i> UFOs are... you know, so willing to take orders and be
accommodating to their Earth hosts. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
The article also states, "In Air Force parlance, this
means that if a 'flying saucer' refuses to land—jet pilots are authorized to
shoot them to Earth, if they can get close enough to do so." Was there ever a more <i>nuanced</i> declaration of war?</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Also on July 29, via a press conference held at the Pentagon
to discuss UFOs, it was reported that <b><i>Major General Roger Ramey</i></b> "...told
the news conference [that] interceptor planes have raced aloft several hundred
times as a result of unidentified objects." Yes reader, the Air Force <i>wanted</i> a UFO! </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
During 1952 the USAF received the most recorded
UFO sightings made to Project Blue Book in its 17 year existence! 1,501 official reports with 303 of these bona fide "Unknowns" ...meaning visual conditions were such that they <i>should have been able to tell</i> what
the flying object was... <b><i>and couldn't</i></b>! Yes reader,
with these overwhelming numbers, the Air Defense Command never had a
better opportunity for getting a UFO. On that
hot Indian Summer day of <st1:date day="12" month="9" year="1952">September
12, 1952</st1:date>, they got their chance!<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Back in 1952 well-known researchers and investigators
were in the dark as to what had actually occurred on September 12. Some found important pieces of the puzzle but
none were able put it all together into a meaningful whole. None could
figure out the "big picture" of events. They didn't have Blue Book! They
didn't have Feschino's single-minded drive and determination... his <i>opportunity</i> to make right the grievances
of forgotten soldiers and airmen of needs lost in this seeming secret air war. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Moving on, what did all of the UFO sightings along the east
coast that day have to do with the "Flatwoods Monster" incident in the
small town of <st1:city>Flatwoods</st1:city>? Furthermore, why were there so many UFOs
sighted over Braxton County that night, before and after the
"monster" encounter on the Fisher Farm? </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
To answer, the whole of <st1:place><st1:placename>Braxton</st1:placename>
<st1:placetype>County</st1:placetype></st1:place>, not just Flatwoods,
actually had its <b><i>own</i></b> flap of UFO sightings during the night! In 1991, and standing on the shoulders of
his intrepid if befuddled predecessors, Feschino picked up the investigation
and began his research where the others had had to throw their hands in the air—ultimately
giving up, thus the incident was never investigated further, back in the day, and in danger of
becoming just another quaint tale of folklore.
Such would not be so on Feschino's watch.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Painstakingly thorough in his on site investigations,
Feschino discovers that there were many more sightings than the original
investigators were aware of—many, <i>many</i>
more, reader, as pointed out above. One of the original investigators,
Gray Barker, stated, "I can only begin to cope with the mass of data and
correspondence, the pieces of the jigsaw puzzle containing the answer to the
mystery—if only it could be put together." Feschino would make that wish come true.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
World-known researcher and author Ivan T. Sanderson also
documented many of the objects seen that night, reporting, "<b><i>As a
result of plotting the incidents on a map, we are of the opinion that a flight
of intelligently controlled objects flew over West Virginia on the evening of
September 12 and further, that one of them landed or crashed, a second and
third crashed and a fourth blew up in the air</i></b>"! That's some assertion!<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Writer Harold T. Wilkins discovered, "The local police,
however, admit that on the day of the incident a fleet of pear-shaped objects—dull
red, white and gleaming—had been seen over the region. They hovered in mid-air,
ascended almost vertically, descended, then flew level, and three strange
objects had crashed in the dense woods."<br />

<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Additionally, Mr. Barker also added, "Within a 20-mile
radius of Flatwoods, numerous persons saw what they variously described, as 'shooting
stars,' flying 'saucers' and 'meteorites.' " With all of this information in hand now,
Feschino moved forward, conducted his own interviews with <st1:place><st1:placename>Braxton</st1:placename>
<st1:placetype>County</st1:placetype></st1:place>
witnesses and scoured local and national newspaper archives. Most
importantly, he obtained the Blue Book files for that day, sometimes even having
to digitally enlarge, enhance and re-ink almost unreadable faded documents to poster size to suss them out! Feschino then compiled all of
his valuable data into a true historical illumination, that
evidentiary trail alluded to above. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Feschino spent decades piling up multiple guided
tours through <st1:place><st1:placename>Braxton</st1:placename> <st1:placetype>County</st1:placetype></st1:place>
with many of the old-timers from the area. They took him to many of the locations where
these sightings occurred and showed him the lay of the land. After years of researching the UFO incidents
occurring in <st1:place><st1:placename>Braxton</st1:placename> <st1:placetype>County</st1:placetype></st1:place>,
Feschino then plotted the points of UFO activity in the area on a large
aviation map and connected them with the surrounding UFO sightings in the other
nine other states. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Ultimately, Frank was able to put the big picture together
of what had actually occurred that day and chronicled the scenario of
events. You see reader, the overwhelming amount of UFOs observed that day
were not attributed to joyriding craft aimlessly flying around in circles
because they had nothing else better to do on a Friday night! There was a
definite <i>reason</i> for all of these
UFO sightings on <st1:date day="12" month="9" year="1952">September 12,
1952</st1:date>. There was <i>purpose</i>! </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Keeping in mind the long-forgotten July 29, 1952 Fall
River Herald-News headline, "Jets Told to Shoot Down Flying
Discs," Fall River informs us that "Jet pilots are operating
under a 24-hour nationwide 'alert' to chase the mysterious objects and to
'shoot them down' if they ignore orders to land"! Let us now follow the data.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
On <st1:date day="12" month="9" year="1952">September 12,
1952</st1:date>, three damaged UFOs flew over the eastern seaboard bearing
westerly and headed in different directions upon reaching the Mid-Atlantic
coast—one after another, just before <st1:time hour="19" minute="0">7:00
p.m. EST.</st1:time> The first UFO
headed southwest toward <st1:place><st1:city>Oak Ridge</st1:city>, <st1:state>Tennessee</st1:state></st1:place>,
home of the <br />
<a href="http://www.ornl.gov/">Oak Ridge National Laboratory</a>, worryingly <i>spot-on</i>, penetrated
the no-fly zone for that sensitive area and landed in <st1:place><st1:city>Arcadia</st1:city>,
<st1:state>Tennessee</st1:state></st1:place>.<br />
<br />
This sparked a massive search
and rescue by local authorities, thinking it was a small civilian aircraft. No aircraft was ever found or even reported to
be missing. Yet local authorities gave
this account: "Patrolmen reported sighting what they believed to be
distress flares from the ground where the object was supposed to have
fallen." Witness H.L. Newland said it was "shining bright and big as a
car."</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
The second UFO flew northwest over <st1:place><st1:city>Baltimore</st1:city>,
<st1:state>MD</st1:state></st1:place>, then flew <i>directly</i> toward <st1:place><st1:city>Dayton</st1:city>, <st1:state>OH</st1:state></st1:place>,
home of Wright Patterson AFB. Just
before reaching <st1:city>Dayton</st1:city>, this craft
was to redirect itself northeast—where it nearly hit a passenger plane
near the <st1:place><st1:placename>Wheeling-Ohio</st1:placename> <st1:placetype>County</st1:placetype>
<st1:placetype>Airport</st1:placetype></st1:place>—then flew south, finally
crash-landing in the <st1:place><st1:city>Wheeling</st1:city>, <st1:state>WV</st1:state></st1:place>
area. <br />
<br />
The UFO was reported in several newspapers, "Three commercial
pilots told the <st1:stockticker>CAA</st1:stockticker> office in <st1:state>Washington</st1:state>
that meteor-like objects flashed by their planes." It was stated,
"One pilot said one nearly hit his ship." Does this sound like
a meteor to the reader, this writer wonders? </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Commercial airline pilots contacted <st1:stockticker>CAA</st1:stockticker>
officials in <st1:state>Washington</st1:state>, DC to
inform them about these, "meteor-<b><i><u>like</u></i></b> objects," not to
report meteors! Does this sound like a <i>meteor</i>,
reader? Besides, contacting high level
and career destroying authorities about mere meteors makes no self-regarding
sense. Why not report to authorities
that the stars come out at night, or that there was a moon above? What would the <st1:stockticker>CAA</st1:stockticker>
be expected to do about meteors? Criticism should have to achieve a level of competence to claim to have the support of science. I digress. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
The third UFO, identified in print by The New York
Times as the "FLAME OVER WASHINGTON," headed due west over
Washington, DC, low level and towards Flatwoods. Simultaneously, over the Nation's Capital, several UFOs
descended from the skies over <st1:place><st1:city><b><i>Washington</i></b></st1:city>, <st1:state><b><i>Maryland</i></b></st1:state></st1:place>,
and <b><i>Virginia</i></b>,
forming a suggested aerial perimeter around their damaged sister craft,
apparently seeing it safely to the west. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
At this point the majority of information concerning these
UFOs descending over this three state area was found only by Feschino
in Project Blue Book—no one besides Feschino seems to have ever bothered, apparently, to closely
read the entire <st1:date day="12" month="9" year="1952">September 12, 1952</st1:date>
case files! Now, for the record—Feschino discovered that there were
actually twelve craft descending to follow the damaged craft west before
ascending back into the sky to the north and northwest! Who says so?
Reported <u>What</u>, <u>Where</u>, and <u>When</u> says so. Blue Book says so.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Shortly after, UFOs descended from the skies in great
numbers over eastern <st1:state><st1:place><b><i>Ohio</i></b></st1:place></st1:state>, the <b><i>WV
panhandle</i></b>, and western <st1:state><st1:place><b><i>Pennsylvania</i></b></st1:place></st1:state>
for two hours—looking, mayhap, for their downed sister craft. These were identified as a
"meteor shower"... also, "Flashing meteors" and
"balls of fire" by the local press and
authorities.<br />
<br />
Contrarily, there is no official scientific
documentation of reported meteor activity for that day anywhere in
the world! In other words, neither the astronomy record books and sky
watching clubs have any record of a meteor or meteor shower occurring anywhere around that
day. Yes, the assertion here is that these additional craft were a
full-blown search and rescue operation made by ET. Anyway, it seems at least one newspaper, The Boston Globe, reported it remotely right in their headline, "Four States 'Bombarded' by
Meteor-Like Objects." In part, it was reported, "Authorities
sought an explanation today for the flurry of meteor-<b><i><u>like</u></i></b> objects
sighted over four states." Meteor "like," good reader is the admission that they are <b><i>not </i></b>meteors or they would <b><i>be</i></b> meteors; they are <b><i>like </i></b>meteors so a listener can have any idea at all what's being related to them. <i>Like </i>a thing is <i>not</i> a thing. No, it's well and truly weirdness! <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Simultaneously, to the south of <st1:place><st1:placename>Braxton</st1:placename>
<st1:placetype>County</st1:placetype></st1:place>, <i>three more objects</i>
flying in formation were enroute to Flatwoods from the south, stewarding yet another damaged object. A fourth craft, a flying saucer, previously sighted over
Flat Rock, North Carolina, joined them, shortly after, as they
reached Flatwoods. This larger saucer then redirected, headed
northwest toward the <st1:city>Wheeling</st1:city> area
where the other objects were descending in what could be called a search of their downed craft as
suspected and was then sighted to the west of <st1:city>Wheeling</st1:city>
over <st1:place><st1:city>Lafferty</st1:city>, <st1:state>Ohio</st1:state></st1:place>.
Are you starting to get the picture yet, reader? </div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<st1:place><st1:city>Flatwoods</st1:city>, <st1:state>WV</st1:state></st1:place>,
the geographical center of the state, void of any nearby USAF bases and isolated, was
actually the designated area for two of the heavily damaged UFOs to
meet and go down together consequent to their conjectured rescue. More specifically, the exact
rendezvous point was actually the Fisher Farm plateau, located at the back of
the farm known as the hill top. <o:p></o:p></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
Before any of the sightings had occurred over <st1:place><st1:placename>Braxton</st1:placename>
<st1:placetype>County</st1:placetype></st1:place>, specifically Flatwoods, the
first UFO observation actually occurred over the Fisher Farm at about <st1:time hour="18" minute="50">6:50 p.m. EST.</st1:time> This UFO was a huge cigar-shaped object
that flew from the east, passed over <st1:place><st1:city>Harrisonburg</st1:city>,
<st1:state>VA</st1:state></st1:place>, then passed over <st1:state>West
Virginia</st1:state>, flew toward Flatwoods and passed over the
back plateau of the Fisher hill top. <br />

Here, Feschino and his military colleagues (myself among
them) have agreed that this was perhaps a reconnaissance rescue craft that
could conceivably have dropped a homing beacon device of some type for the two
damaged objects to follow in to the farm landing zone. Remained, there was a real big problem during
this time frame for the UFOs.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
The heavily damaged craft flying west toward Flatwoods from
the DC area was struggling to reach its rendezvous destination
simultaneously with the other damaged craft heading North with its UFO escort.
When the three northbound UFOs reached Flatwoods to rendezvous with the
damaged, "Flatwoods Monster" craft... it wasn't there. The rendezvous
had been missed! The damaged southern craft flew over the Fisher Farm while the
other two combed the area for it! </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Meanwhile, the incoming flying saucer made a brief pass
over the Flatwoods area and then headed northwest. When the damaged
craft, containing the "Flatwoods Monster," wasn't initially found, all
four southern ships departed the area. Subsequently, the damaged southern
craft <b><i>crashed three times</i></b> in <st1:place><st1:placename>Braxton</st1:placename> <st1:placetype>County</st1:placetype></st1:place>
and the damaged "Flatwoods Monster" craft landed on the Fisher Farm
shortly after. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Yes, the UFO events occurring in Flatwoods and surrounding
regions are actually attributed to a search and rescue mission—a failed
operation actually, ending with a close encounter on the Fisher Farm between
Mrs. May, a group of boys 12 to 18 and a 12-foot-tall occupant called the
"Flatwoods Monster. The following data list was compiled by Frank
Feschino, Jr., identifies some witnesses, and shows us a fraction of the UFO

There you have it people. ...Anyone
still think all this activity was attributed to a single course changing "fireball
meteor," as the USAF counsels via Blue Book or that the "Flatwoods
Monster" was a Barn owl in a tree? Return to the clue
queue if true.</div>

Wrapping up, let's remember two missing airmen,
fighter pilot John A. Jones, Jr. and radar operator John DelCurto. These two intrepid airmen, initially denied
to Feschino by the Air Force as having ever even <i>served (outrage)</i>, vanished into thin air with their F-94 Starfire
during the onset of the September 12, 1952 UFO Flap, never to be seen or
heard from again. <o:p></o:p></div>

What I posted on UFO Updates:</div>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
<span style="background-color: red; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; white-space: pre-wrap;">"Only $90.00?" That's a lot of money for some of us. MUFON, once upon a time, a long time ago, they did good things, good intent. Now they're in bed with Bigelow, and, oh dear. Individuals remain who do good work but as an entity, MUFON, no thanks. As to UFO events; the skies are busy busy busy these past decades with our own lights and it's hard to distinguish between the truly strange and "just" one of ours. Of course, "one of ours" often has its own sinister implications, but that's another track. Meanwhile, there are witnesses to really weird events -- myself included -- that have to do with UFOs. Aliens, or what, who knows, but the experiences are real, and I, for one, am not lying when I report on them. So I will continue to ponder and ask and wonder and delve. Sometimes it means looking at the light in the sky, if only to realize it's nothing. Other times it means asking -- demanding! -- hey, just what the hell was that whole missing time thing about?! Witnesses need to keep exploring and investigating, and researchers need to stop putting limits on what is acceptable and what isn't. True, Roswell slides mysteriously present showing real aliens is a huge and silly distraction, but knowing the players promoting such stunts helps and then we can move on. </span></blockquote>

Meanwhile, the real questions and experiences seem to be ignored. Relegated to the fringe of the fringe. Unasked, not pursued. In fact, demands are shouted. Demands for science to step up. Demands for everyone else involved to be more scientific in the pursuit of UFO knowledge. As if that approach will answer, once and for all, The UFO Question.</div>
<div style="font-family: helvetica, sans-serif;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: helvetica, sans-serif;">
Feh. And meh.</div>
<div style="font-family: helvetica, sans-serif;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: helvetica, sans-serif;">
I'm not bored. I'm not giving up. I'm not shutting up. I encourage every witness, from the Bigfoot-UFO witness to the reptilian alien witness to the spinning lighted disco ball mother ship witness to report, write about, talk about, discuss, argue, defend, explore, investigate. Just be honest and clear. Hold your intent and focus. Compare and contrast.</div>
<div style="font-family: helvetica, sans-serif;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: helvetica, sans-serif;">
Check yourselves. Check your religions, your belief systems. You do the work; don't let others dictate to you what that is. Now that's a hard one, because it's very difficult to be honest in that context.</div>
<div style="font-family: helvetica, sans-serif;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: helvetica, sans-serif;">
But don't shut up. Don't stop. Don't let others tell you your story is unacceptable because it's too weird or that you're not a scientist.</div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
I can make no apologies for the huge admiration and respect
I have cultivated for Richard Dolan. Dolan, you see, is but one leg of a stalwart "quadrature
of earnest consideration" I've nurtured regarding the UFO and its highly
strange ancillaries. This "quadrature," a four way triangulation on a confirming
assertion providing for a complete and rational <i>understanding</i> of the ufological, is <i>entirely</i> bulletproof through my filters. That's right.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
The other three supports of that understanding, not in any
particular order, are Stanton Friedman, Frank Feschino, and Robert
Hastings. Each of these prosecutes a significant
piece of work pointing wholly to that same invulnerable supposition: UFOs and the ineffable "other," —howsoever
that "other" manifests— quite simply, <i>are</i>.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
That's right, too. Study
these entirely acceptable gentlemen, reader, and it becomes altogether, even
patently, obvious that it is time for an elected —and unelected— leadership,
corrupted culture, and irrelevant society to "utilize a progressive's faculties..."
or <i>get off the freaking pot regarding
UFOs</i>. I digress, but not far. </div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
When I awoke early on the seventh everyone had already been
up for awhile moving like a platoon of Army Ants. On the previous day, after I'd retired, it had been discovered
that the venue where the event had been planned was short required sound and
lighting equipment! Replacement equipment provided by the furious activity of Larry
Bailey's two younger sons drew too much power for the recently restored 50's
type movie theatre and was blowing fuses.
The sound and light boards needed to be virtually rewired, heavy klieg
lights had to be procured and mounted, colored gels and masks were cut and
affixed to carousels while rehearsals and run-throughs had to be completed—yesterday!</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Where were the expected harsh shouts, finger-pointing,
hurtful allegations, angry accusations, and exasperated capitulations? Nowhere to be found, reader! In its stead was a calmness, ready
volunteerism, and sacrifice to common cause.
I had other things I probably should have been doing, but I even found
myself setting up Stanton Friedman's 35mm slide presentations or helping Doug
Gokey, one of the event security guys, set up the boards and displays of Feschino's
Flatwoods mini-museum.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Forgetting the preceding for just a moment, I report that I
was treated to encounters with my fellow Homo sapiens rather <em>adding</em> to
the unusual fellowship—fellowship so thick you could breath it like it was
oxygen enriched air:</div>

First there was the biggest UFO Flap in United States History. The Summer of Saucers 1952 knew UFOs to damn near land on the White House lawn but certainly impinge upon Washington airspace prohibited by consequences of deadly force! Jets were scrambled into launched futility at UFOs violating that airspace again and again. Orders were issued to jets all over the country to _SHOOT THEM DOWN_! On September 12, there were 21 hours and change of continuous UFO sightings over the United States. Jets were launched. At the same time, there are credited reports of UFOs being forced down in obvious mechanical distress. One such incident occurred on the old Fisher Farm in Flatwoods West Virginia.</div>

******* FLATWOODS MONSTER CHRISTMAS EVE SHOW *********</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><i>'Twas the night </i></b><b><i>before Christmas</i></b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><i>When all through the house</i></b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><i>Not a creature was stirring...</i></b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><i>Uh-oh... Not this year people!</i></b></div>
<br />
Wait! What? <br />
.<br />
This Christmas eve—gather 'round the fireplace—hold onto your red hat—grab hold of your jingle bells and take a big hit of the fortified EggNog! Be prepared, friends and loved ones, to hear a story of a different kind this Christmas eve that will have you at the edge of your sleigh seat!<br />
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
See, this year there will be <i>real </i>"creatures" stirring about the house on December 24! Frank C. Feschino, Jr. appears as a guest on Dark Matter Radio with host Martin Willis. This Christmas eve, tune in to have another visitor besides Santa Claus down the chimney, perhaps, when author Frank C. Feschino, Jr. talks about his investigation into the infamous "Flatwoods Monster"! His latest book details the entire "Braxton County Monster" incident, forgetting a secret air war with ET! Remember, reader, Flatwoods is the END of the story. First you have to wade UFOs making effortless incursions into sensitive airspace around Washington, DC during the Summer Of Saucers in 1952, orders subsequently issued to the military of the United States to shoot those UFOs down, 21 plus hours of sustained UFO activity on the 12th, a crash landing of a fiery ball on the Bailey Fisher observed by sober adults and children... and <b><i>then </i></b>you can start talking about a "Flatwoods monster"... followed by a HUGE aftermath, eh? Those are the facts.<br />
.<br />
Frank Feschino, the authority on this terrifying close encounter incident of September 12, 1952, will be discussing his findings on this classic case, which he has spent more than 22-years investigating and researching.

In 2004 I was<span class="apple-converted-space"> </span><i>fresh</i><span class="apple-converted-space"> </span>from a substantive and emotionally messy donnybrook of the ufological kind. This regrettable kerfuffle involving the man called <a href="http://alienview.net/morty.html" target="_blank">Mortellaro</a> was the result of a knowing betrayal of my trust—neatly and before the fact—a betrayal as regards some kind of corporeal<span class="apple-converted-space"> </span><i>thread</i><span class="apple-converted-space"> </span>or<span class="apple-converted-space"> </span><i>inroad</i><span class="apple-converted-space"> </span>into this thing we're all interested in involving UFOs. </div>

<span style="color: #212121;">The <i>wholly</i> extraterrestrial and so <i>alien</i>
"other" (ET) is <i>furtively</i> regarded—and
with <i>all</i> trepidation—early in the
21st Century. ...Avoided assiduously. This avoidance
encourages a manner facilitating an allowance for one to keep a certain "distance"
from even the<span class="apple-converted-space"> </span><em><b>concept </b></em>of
same, as the mere concept seems the quintessential slippery slope to a, forget <i>justified</i>, philosophical chaos... ...unsettling
even as it <b><i><u>is</u></i></b> inevitable. Still, one does not catch a train by letting
it run them down.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; margin-bottom: 12.0pt; mso-line-height-alt: 7.65pt;">
<span style="color: #212121;">This avoidance is even as one is
compelled by history or circumstance to make the admission that
"such" must <i>indeed</i> be "so"
without regard to slopes slippery or otherwise.
I know it's a game changer and huge sacrifices, likely, must be made... ...even
where cosmic <b><i>gains</i></b> are <b><i>as</i></b> possible. That doesn't give it a pass or remotely
excuse it. The perspicacious man doesn't search for answers, he <i>faces</i> them.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; margin-bottom: 12.0pt; mso-line-height-alt: 7.65pt;">
<span style="color: #212121;">This writer's position is not
lightly taken. Seven <i>massive</i> categories of compelling
evidence is a <i>provocative</i>
encouragement that "such is so."
The corroborating involvement of vetted associates with abundant
intelligence and research experience says "such is so." Personal experience in an honest individual's
felt presence of the moment says "such
is so." Such <b><i>would</i></b> seem... and
decidedly, so. Consistency is as
consistency does, good reader. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="color: #212121;">There are <b><i><u>reasons</u></i></b> alluded to
as regards our trepidation, such as <i>they</i>
are, for the "facilitation of denial" also alluded to above. These include (1) reflexive fear of the
unknown, (2) reactionary knee-jerk rejections of even constructive change, (3) overly
conservative concerns regarding the invalidation of previously held but now
justifiably challenged faiths or mores, or (4), just not wanting to re-do work
thought done. On the whole: not the
bravest of "reasons," eh?<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; margin-bottom: 12.0pt; mso-line-height-alt: 7.65pt;">

<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; margin-bottom: 12.0pt; mso-line-height-alt: 7.65pt;">
<span style="color: #212121;">Yeah... ET <b><i>would</i></b> change everything,
but given the current state of affairs that might not be a bad thing. Wouldn't it unite us at the least? <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; margin-bottom: 12.0pt; mso-line-height-alt: 7.65pt;">

<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; margin-bottom: 12.0pt; mso-line-height-alt: 7.65pt;">
<span style="color: #212121;">Be that as it may, <i>over the years</i> this rejection of the ET
infects even the <i>study</i> of an "admitted"
ET, itself. Resolved! There is a dense <i>plethora</i> of explanatory alternatives to ET providing for that
"distance," one can readily see. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; margin-bottom: 12.0pt; mso-line-height-alt: 7.65pt;">

<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; margin-bottom: 12.0pt; mso-line-height-alt: 7.65pt;">
<span style="color: #212121;">Consider the Extra-dimensional
Hypothesis (Occupied adjacent dimensions, but <i>us</i>, comfortingly). Behold the Extra-chronological
Hypothesis (Time Travelers, but <i>us, </i>comfortingly).
Review the Intra-terrestrial Hypothesis (Hollow Earth, but <i>us, </i>comfortingly). Regard the Crypto-terrestrial Hypothesis
(Of the Earth though perceived with extreme difficulty, but <i>us, essentially</i>). There is even an
Entheogenic Hypothesis: the "Alien" tuned in to receptive
consciousness made receptive by psychedelic substances like LSD, DMT, or Ayahuasca.
That one may not be as crazy as it
sounds, still it's something of a long-shot. There are more of these
"alternatives"; that's what plethora <i>means</i>. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; margin-bottom: 12.0pt; mso-line-height-alt: 7.65pt;">

<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; margin-bottom: 12.0pt; mso-line-height-alt: 7.65pt;">
<span style="color: #212121;">What do they hold in common? All move evidential goal posts decidedly further
and further away from the existential or provable; indeed there becomes no
"proof" <b><i>enough!</i></b> ET becomes a shadow—a mere suggestion of itself
and "plausibly deniable" for its aforementioned shadowiness. Consider
<b><i>now</i></b>,
reader, that <b><u>Humanity</u></b> is no <i>shadow</i> and is<span class="apple-converted-space"> </span><em>entirely</em><span class="apple-converted-space"> </span>existential... this is demonstrated as
a result of ones felt personal experience which is <i>totally</i> inured in the corporeal.

<span style="color: #212121;">Stanton Friedman, who does not

alludes to these alternative hypotheses as the "</span><st1:city><st1:place><span style="color: #212121;">ABA</span></st1:place></st1:city><span style="color: #212121;">" conjectures. "Anything But Aliens." The

<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; margin-bottom: 12.0pt; mso-line-height-alt: 7.65pt;">
<span style="color: #212121;">How does that happen? How can
such a high degree of "certitude" be justified? Well, as a
result of being able to use the unquestioned reality—<em>the unquestioned
existentiality</em>—of<span class="apple-converted-space"> </span><em><b>ourselves</b></em><span class="apple-converted-space"> </span>as the extant <i>proof</i> of that contention, reader! Here's how that might work.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; margin-bottom: 12.0pt; mso-line-height-alt: 7.65pt;">
<span style="color: #212121;">.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; margin-bottom: 12.0pt; mso-line-height-alt: 7.65pt;">
<span style="color: #212121;">First: Yes. The ETH is
correct. This is true whether or not any of the more<span class="apple-converted-space"> </span><em>unlikely</em><span class="apple-converted-space"> </span>hypotheses exist and are correct.
They <i>can</i> exist; nevertheless,
the ETH<span class="apple-converted-space"> </span><em><b><u>is</u></b></em><span class="apple-converted-space">, at the last, </span>the more likely to be the
correct conjecture. One can arrive at this conclusion handily, themselves, if
one remembers the old saw regarding (1) unending time, (2) abundant monkeys,
and (3) plentiful typewriters. Shakespeare does <i>indeed</i> get tapped out—eventually—even if not in the best spelling,
eh?<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; margin-bottom: 12.0pt; mso-line-height-alt: 7.65pt;">
<span style="color: #212121;">See, anything that<span class="apple-converted-space"> </span><em><b>can,</b></em><span class="apple-converted-space"> and </span><i>remotely</i>, "happen"... ...<i>happens</i>, given time. When it does that, when something makes that
"occurrence," into our corporeal existentiality, Alfred North
Whitehead, for one, allowed as how it would seem to exceed some kind of "
'expression'<span class="apple-converted-space"> </span><em><b>formality</b></em>"
or " 'event'<span class="apple-converted-space"> </span><em><b>threshold</b></em>."
A subsequent occurrence, then, seems almost <em>encouraged</em>... almost like
a proof of concept was all that was necessary for a <b><i><u>reproduction</u></i></b> to be
possible...eh? Then? ...And not ending there... It happens,<span class="apple-converted-space"> </span><em>again</em>. How often?<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="color: #212121;">Consider, for example:<span class="apple-converted-space"> </span><em><u>fact</u></em>, the nascent

dictates that iron is the last element able to be made in that fusion
process in <b><i><u>any</u></i></b> of them. <span class="apple-converted-space"> </span><em><b><u>Fact</u></b></em>,
fusion just doesn't have the<span class="apple-converted-space"> </span><em>juice</em><span class="apple-converted-space"> </span>to go any further. From where,
then, must come the <i>remaining</i>
elements beyond Iron on the periodic table and observable in our universe?

<span style="color: #212121;">Observe: in the <i>cosmic</i> cosmos relatively fresh from its
big bang, and in the furious bowels of the monstrous stars aforementioned,
paired silicon atoms are "produced" then they try, fail, and then
try, try again... to combine into humble iron. Eventually, with so<span class="apple-converted-space"> </span><em>many</em><span class="apple-converted-space"> </span>silicon atoms trying... and, with so
much<span class="apple-converted-space"> </span><em><b><u>time</u></b></em><span class="apple-converted-space"> </span>available? Heat? Pressure?

<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; margin-bottom: 12.0pt; mso-line-height-alt: 7.65pt;">
<span style="color: #212121;">The occurrence of that iron atom
doesn't happen just once, mind. Formality achieved? It's recurrence traces an
asymptotic and accelerating curve of manufacture so fast and extreme that the
newly created and quickly amassed iron—an element able to suck up huge amounts

them to the starry stellar reaches on its fiery cosmic winds. <br />.<br />Those additional

Author Frank Feschino, Jr. has worked
continuously for more than two <i>decades</i>
on various aspects of his ongoing and seemingly bottomless “Flatwoods Monster”
research project. For <i>ten</i> of those
years he's traveled the length and breadth of the whole nation presenting
lectures on and exhibits regarding that research. In the past <i>three</i> years—and recovering splendidly from the publisher botched first
edition in 2004—he's released two revised “Braxton County Monster” books, appeared
on <i>numerous</i> radio shows/live pod-casts,
completed <i>countless</i> newspaper
interviews, was feted at <i>many</i> book
signings or meets and greets, and <i>then</i>
put together a compelling film documentary which can be viewed free of charge
on YouTube.com titled <b><i><u>The Braxton County Monster/Flatwoods
Monster: book by Feschino</u></i></b>... très bien, eh?</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">

<i>Hugely</i> significant, Frank was flown to <st1:state><st1:place>California</st1:place></st1:state>
<i>just last fall</i> to contribute an interview

Since then he's made some more public
appearances and been interviewed on more radio programs, <i>sure</i>, but <i>lately</i> things had
been quiet on the Feschino front. What's
up?</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Now, in the past when Feschino had
dropped off the radar and disappeared from the public eye like this it's meant
but one thing: he's busy working on something substantive providing for an
expanding support involving his research projects. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Well, reader, true to form, it
seems he was involved in just such a matter! </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
This year, it being the 62nd
anniversary of the "Flatwoods Monster" incident and with September 12th
fast approaching, I spoke to Frank on the phone to see what he has been up to—get
spun up on the "what was <i>what</i>." Indeed,
he's updated me with some new information about his latest initiative: it's a
toe-curler.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Cutting right to the chase, Feschino
advises that he has been working on and putting the finishing touches to no less
than a <i>movie treatment</i> of the “Flatwoods
Monster” incident! See, to date he has
led the <i>longest</i> and most <i>productive</i> investigation into the
“Flatwoods Monster” case, in <i>history</i>!
Thus, he proves himself an authority on
this highly strange incident after 22 years of truly unparalleled research. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Feschino, remember, is an author,
an illustrator, a photographer and a competent video camera operator. A quick back-story on Frank: for four years he
was trained in illustration at the prestigious Paier School of Art by world-class
artists <i>Rudolph Zallinger</i>, <i>John Massimino</i> and <i>Kenneth Davies</i>. He's also studied photography for professional
applications. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
During Feschino’s investigation
he used his extensive art training alluded to, for example, when he could sit
down with original witnesses and draw “police-style” renderings as these witnesses
described their “Flatwoods Monster” or the "Braxton County UFOs" to
him. Frank also painted or penciled the
dozens of illustrations he used for his books and took all the photographs
contained in his books as well. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
At Phillips Jr. College, Frank
was trained by <st1:place>Hollywood</st1:place> steady-cam operator, Richard
Davis, where he excelled in the operation of same. Too, Feschino studied the
myriad aspects of film or video production but received his Associates Degree
in production and business. Feschino is <i>by no means</i> unqualified.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Subsequently, Frank’s camera
operation and directing skills had enabled him to record many of the witnesses
involved in the Flatwoods case throughout the years. Most of these taped
interviews are the only ones in existence, I'm told, thus making Feschino most singular
on the blame line for untangling the truth about the Flatwoods case and
preserving it for an <i>unvarnished</i>, and
so <i>braver</i>, history. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Additionally and for the record,
reader, during Frank’s investigation he also accumulated the largest collection
of "Flatwoods Monster" documentation from around the world. He
amassed a <i>huge</i> collection of military
books and attendant documents gathering countless periodicals from that 1952
era as well. All of this material is the
mortar used in his investigation: flesh and sinew for organ on bone. The movie treatment must breath the spark of
life to this living thing. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
With all of this data in hand, forgetting
Feschino's art, essay, photography and production skills, he also constructed a
highly detailed and painstakingly accurate <i>storyboard
presentation</i> of the “Flatwoods Monster” incident for his treatment! This <i>alone</i>
would rightfully encourage appointing him subject matter expert on a project
competent to have provided the foundation for his film. There is no one close to Feschino in this
regard as it pertains to the history of 1952, the Summer Of Saucers, Military
Involvement, and September 12th 1952, <b><i><u>The Flatwoods Affair</u></i></b>. The closest would be the <b><i>Great</i></b> Wendy Connors,
but she, missing key evidence in Project Blue Book unavailable to her when she
did her research, got it wrong.</div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Moreover, if you haven’t noticed
reader, since Feschino’s original book was published ten years ago and with the
release of additional information in his subsequent books, the popularity of
the "Flatwoods Monster" incident has continued to escalate on a worldwide
scale. In a nutshell, Feschino has single-handedly resurrected the “Flatwoods Monster”
incident by uncovering the truth regarding one of the biggest UFO cover-ups in our
Nation's history! I digress, but soon
it must be that a "knee" is reached and the curve of an aggregate
interest in the history of 1952 goes asymptotic, straight up—Saturn Rocket-like
at a big fraction of <b><i>light speed</i></b>!
Whoosh!</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Now, during our recent conversation
Feschino further explained that his “Flatwoods Monster” movie idea has been on his
agenda ever since going to film school in the early 1990s. Mr. Davis, Feschino’s mentor at film school,
worked closely with Frank and strongly encouraged him to follow through with
his project. A "pro" advises a story well chased! His focus on same
has been undaunted!</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Throughout the years since I
first met Frank, he'd casually mention the movie idea to me over the phone or
when we'd traveled out on a book signing engagement... but he never elaborated
on it. Currently, behind the scenes, Frank explained to me what actually
inspired and prompted him to begin writing a “Flatwoods Monster” movie
treatment by himself. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Back in 2007 Feschino had
received a phone call from a well-known screenplay writer in <st1:state><st1:place>California</st1:place></st1:state>.
Frank had just published his book, "<i>Shoot
Them Down-The Flying Saucer Air Wars of 1952</i>." You see, this writer, a
writer who had a <i>credential</i> writing a
blockbuster screenplay for Steven Spielberg incidentally, said he needed
assistance concerning a scene he was writing for a UFO movie project. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Well, as Frank explains, the
scene involved an aerial encounter between a USAF jet fighter and a flying
saucer over the <st1:place><st1:city>Washington</st1:city>, <st1:state>DC</st1:state></st1:place>
area. This was, of course, based on the
actual events occurring in July of 1952 during the infamous "Summer Of
Saucers." </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Since Frank had written extensively
about the July 1952 <st1:state><st1:place>Washington</st1:place></st1:state>
sightings in two chapters of his <b><i><u>Shoot Them Down</u></i></b>, he <i>gladly</i> agreed to help the writer with
the scene. It was an honor for Frank. The "screenplay writer" talked
with Frank at length, read Feschino’s chapters, and they corresponded over the
next few weeks while the scene was being hammered out. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Finally, when the aerial encounter
scene was finished, the writer called Frank back in <st1:state><st1:place>Florida</st1:place></st1:state>
and read it to him over the phone. Frank said he was amazed as the screenplay
writer read the script scene to him, bringing his writing to life...it was
awesome, but something was wrong. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
The writer had made a technical
mistake, concerning the Air Force jet fighter involved Frank quickly picked up
on the disconnect and cued the writer, providing connection. Subsequently, the
writer had to go back, correct the problem, and rewrite the scene. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
A couple of calls later, it was
finished and polished, reread to Frank, receiving Feschino's stamp. Feschino
explained that he can't reveal any additional details about this particular UFO
project because it is being kept "confidential"...<st1:place>Hollywood</st1:place>
secrecy stuff, eh? The point is that by this point in time, Feschino told
me that he knew he could write a movie treatment of his own about the
“Flatwoods Monster” incident. I'm not
surprised.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
In addition to his production
training at film school, Frank had learned a lot by working with the
aforementioned screen writer in <st1:state><st1:place>California</st1:place></st1:state>
and now, with several books to his credit, he began to write his <i>own</i> treatment. ...And who better than the person obsessed with
the existential reality of 22 years of painstaking research, eh?</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Frank told me the amount of
attention that he has recently received in 2014 from Television documentary
producers across the globe is overwhelming. Since the spring of 2014, Feschino
has been contacted and has spoken to TV producers from <st1:country-region><st1:place>Great
Britain</st1:place></st1:country-region>, <st1:country-region><st1:place>Canada</st1:place></st1:country-region>,
<st1:country-region><st1:place>Japan</st1:place></st1:country-region> and the <st1:country-region><st1:place>United
States</st1:place></st1:country-region>. This is encouraging but the
“Flatwoods Monster” incident has more than just documentary potential...it has
the makings for a full-blown Feature Film! Consider compelling evidence for an <b><i>undeclared
air war</i></b> between the <st1:country-region><st1:place>US</st1:place></st1:country-region>
and ET to see what I mean. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
It's an astonishing tale...
almost too astonishing; what if it's true?</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Feschino testifies that his
“Flatwoods Monster” movie is based on the actual 1952 incident and has all the
key ingredients to be a real blockbuster. He added that the storyline is better
than any Sci-Fi or UFO genre action movie produced in recent years and with a
great team of producers, <st1:city><st1:place>Hollywood</st1:place></st1:city>
could do real justice to this compelling story based on fact as peculiar as
those facts are. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
We could only hope for the best as
<i>that</i> crow flies, eh reader? Feschino didn’t elaborate but told me his
story contains flashbacks between 1952 and the present, involves aerial dogfights,
missing pilots, a romance weaved in to the storyline and of course the
12-foot-tall “Monster.” Even though the story is based on actual events,
Feschino said he added a small amount of fiction to the story to carry the storyline.
He paused then and said, “Well, maybe it really isn't all fiction!” </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Anyway, Feschino claims that his
“Flatwoods Monster” story is action-packed and has such a shocking ending that
people will be knocked out of their socks and talking about it for years. I'm compelled to take him at his word.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Cake Icing, Feschino is quite the
music aficionado. He told me that he
also met a <i>Rock and Roll Hall of Fame
guitarist </i>in <st1:place><st1:city>Orlando</st1:city>, <st1:state>Florida</st1:state></st1:place>,
recently, and discussed his “Flatwoods Monster” project with him. I hate to do
this to you reader, but I can’t disclose who it is now—more of that secrecy
stuff—but I will tell you that he played lead guitar on one of the biggest hit
songs in rock history! </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Feschino commented, "After
seeing this legendary performer on stage throughout the years, including sold
out concerts at Madison Square Garden, it seemed surreal to be sitting at a
table with him and giving him a one on one lecture about the Flatwoods case."
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
As their meeting unfolded,
Feschino explained the “Flatwoods Monster” incident to him and then took out a
set of his three “Flatwoods Monster” art prints from his portfolio, laid them
on the table and used them to assist in the telling of the story; Frank then presented
them to the guitarist. The musician asked Frank if he would sign them for him
and signed three music pieces for Frank as well. “He was really a down to earth
guy and was very knowledgeable on the UFO subject,” Feschino added. There are many rock and roll types who are
serious students of the ufological.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
After talking privately for almost
an hour, Feschino offered that he was writing a movie treatment for the story.
The famous guitarist then told Feschino that he would love to have "<i>first crack at doing the soundtrack for it,</i>"
and said he "<i>always wanted to do a
soundtrack for something like this</i>." Feschino said he would surely
contact him, then handed him two information packets about the "Flatwoods
Monster." Their meeting closed when contact numbers were exchanged between
Frank and the guitarist’s agent. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Yes reader, Feschino is very
confident in his UFO project and newly written piece and is now open to
discussion with serious producers interested in making a “Flatwoods Monster”
movie based on his work. Remember, that you read about it here <i>first</i>, reader. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Now, on to Flatwoods itself for a
brief historical overview regarding one of the top news stories of 1952 (in the
Top Five this writer understands), the “Flatwoods Monster” incident, involving
an alien encounter between a gigantic 12-foot-tall crash occupant shot down by US
forces ordered to do so, and a group of small town Flatwoods, WV residents. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
In honor of the 62nd anniversary
of the “Flatwoods Monster” incident, the authority on this subject, Frank C.
Feschino, Jr., has compiled the following quotes, which represent some of the
best-recorded writings of the event in the media and various publications over
the past 62-years. This is just a
sampling. Prepare to be stunned.<o:p></o:p></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
See, Frank Feschino is by no
means alone when he regards the reflexive Flatwoods denial by a <i>faux-authoritative</i>
officialdom! He has his eyes <i>justifiably</i>
askance and his arms <i>presumptively</i>
akimbo, eh? He's earned his justified
skepticism of the "<i>official party line</i>." As alluded to before, the Flatwoods
story has its deniability built right in as the science fiction sighting
of a cross-dressing alien by a group of hillbilly kids not knowing a
spook-haint from a barn owl! </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Then the reader discovers, and
undeniably so too, that the so called "Braxton County Monster" is an
affair at the <i>end</i> of a three month
super-flap of UFOs during the summer of 1952 (fact)! This is where UFOs were over-flying super
sensitive <st1:place><st1:city>Washington</st1:city> <st1:state>DC</st1:state></st1:place>
locations on the ground with such blithe impunity that orders were issued to
shoot those UFOs down (fact)! An
attendant UFO flap, the final one to the larger flap lasting the summer—occurring
on <st1:date day="12" month="9" year="1952">September 12th, 1952</st1:date>
(fact!)—incurred an <i>expected</i>
response from the military, it is presumed, and the "Flatwoods Affair"
is but one of <i>four</i> UFOs damaged in
the ensuing air-war of that night. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
On top of all of the
preceding? A heavy battalion of infantry
outfitted from <i>boats</i> to <i>bazookas</i> was dispatched to Flatwoods and
<st1:place><st1:city>Frametown</st1:city>, <st1:state>WV</st1:state></st1:place>
to look for <u style="font-style: italic; font-weight: bold;">something</u> (fact)! They
were not deployed to hunt wooden-nickel barn owls, Magaha-ian coal gas vents,
or Shermer's one time hallucinogenic stink-weed. Laugh if you must, but follow
the data. Everyone who does is
gob-smacked and decidedly <i>bereft</i> of
easy laughter after that, eh? </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
The final kicker? Frank noticed that there could be no better quintessential
example with regard to "forgotten" and "Missing in Action"
Soldiers, Sailors, and Airmen, than the lives testified to be lost by <i>General
Benjamin Chidlaw, Head of Air Defense Command when he alluded in 1953</i> that<i> "We have stacks of reports
about flying saucers. We take them seriously when you consider we have lost
many men and planes trying to intercept them."</i></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<i><br /></i></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b><i>Two such persons and equipment lost? How about USAF F-94 fighter pilot 2nd Lt.
John A. Jones, Jr. and radar observer, 2nd Lt. John DelCurto. These men mysteriously vanished without a
trace on </i></b><st1:date day="12" month="9" year="1952"><b><i>September 12th 1952</i></b></st1:date><b><i>, and
were never seen or heard from again. Subsequently then, their memories and
consummate bravery denied, they were discounted to have even existed by the
authorities until Feschino brought them back to the light.<o:p></o:p></i></b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b><i><br /></i></b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Close to
the exit, reader, here is another fact to ponder. Why is it that there are two official case reports adjacent to Jones
and DelCurto's case <i>missing from the Air Force's "AIRCRAFT ACCIDENTS OF
1952</i>," files for that now infamous date, <st1:date day="12" month="9" year="1952"><b><i>September 12, 1952</i></b></st1:date>?<b><i><o:p></o:p></i></b></div>

<br />
Upcoming, the anniversary of the 62 year old "Flatwoods Monster" meme seems right out of the Science Fiction of the 1950s. So? It has its own built in "<i style="font-weight: bold;">cognitive dissonance, </i>see?" It is wholly dismissible... <i>if you need it to be</i>. Errantly, many do.<br />
<br />
It remains that there is <i>solid</i> logic, <i>abundant </i>citation, <i>un-stretched</i> evidence and <i>decided</i> circumstance highlighting the startling actuality of even <b><i>1950s</i></b> Science fiction. It very well may be, the reader might come to find, a matter of the <i>truly </i>existential occurring in the <i>real </i>world. <i>Such appears to be so</i>.<br />
<br />
I remind everyone of two things: it is 1952, and revealing itself in the well documented activity of that year is the <i>biggest UFO flap in United States history</i>... "The Summer of Saucers, 1952," one, and two, a person is going to describe astonishing and unspeakable events happening to them in the language that they have... or merely be pointing back into the darkness and incoherently exclaiming, "Gaa Gaa, Gaa... ...Gaa!" I understand there was a little of <i>that</i>, too. Remains, 1952's language of its described true incidents is just going to <i>have</i> a 1950's SyFy flair. How can it not?<br />
<br />
September the 12th, 1952 remains a seminal date whatever the language. Whatever it was to have occurred was documented to have occurred, and so indeed occurred, in fact. What actually occurred, exactly; however, is wholly unknown and only described, as noted, in the inadequate language of the day... but there is a <b><i><u>lot</u></i></b> of that language, reader. There is <i>written </i>language, an <i>oral </i>language, a language that has been <i>video-taped</i> or otherwise <i>recorded </i>that Frank Feschino has intrepidly sussed out... <br />
<br />
Prepare yourself. It is <i>language </i>making <i>every</i> indication that there was, indeed, an air-war <i>wholly undeclared</i> on ET, by us, last century<i> but for a single directive to wage that war</i>... were ET not to unconditionally surrender and turn themselves and their machines <b><i>in </i></b>to be rendered by authorities... This is an undeclared war where "being" and machine were perhaps lost to <i>both </i>sides. <br />
<br />
But for Feschino all this language would have been lost. All crazy, I know, but two things: impossibilities eliminated, what remains is likely truth, one, and two, one is directed to follow a leading evidence where <b><i><u>it</u></i></b> leads... not where one would <i>have </i>it lead.<br />
<br />
Fact: In 1952, the restricted airspace of Washington, DC was <i>effortlessly </i>impinged upon, and with impunity, so often and so threateningly by UFOs... <i>that the military was charged and duly ordered to shoot those UFOs down</i>... where they, <i>laughably</i>, did not follow instructions to ground themselves for capture and arrest. "Shoot them down" was of course the business end of our intention. Tasked? We <i>wanted </i>one and would have actively sought one out.<br />
<br />
It <b><i><u>is</u></i></b> logical and well supported that one such UFO, so engaged, may have been forced down for a time on the old Bailey Fisher Farm in Flatwoods, West Virginia that night. This, reader, would be the <i>end of the story</i> on the whole "summer of saucers" flap of 1952 <i>and not an isolated incident</i> regarding an altogether "<i>singular" or "one-off" </i>Braxton County Monster "incident," happening exclusively on September 12, one finds. No, one finds only a first-wash and abject <i>weirdness component in a larger system of weirdness </i>given what'd occurred there before and since... all in a decided <i>whole </i>of unspeaking weirdness wholly unspeakable. UFOs <i>have </i>been, <i>are</i>, and will <i>be</i>. We don't officially and with seriousness speak of them YET!<br />
<br />
It is 62 years later, now, and during the course of Frank Feschino Jr.'s now 22 year long investigation into the Flatwoods Monster case he had proved, then, that the "Flatwoods Monster" incident was NOT an isolated incident, by any means. Yes reader, there was very much more UFO activity that day <i>besides </i>the well-known incident involving an encounter between a downed ET occupant and some small town residents on that farm in Flatwoods one Indian Summer the middle of last century.<br />

<br />
<br />
During Feschino's due diligence investigation and while writing his stunning books, he'd combed the Country's myriad archives for relevant clues. He revealed and then compiled numerous Sept. 12, 1952 UFO reports from reliably credited, credible, and crediting sources.<br />
<br />
Feschino also worked diligently with other <i>researchers</i>, <i>archivists</i>, <i>historians, </i>and <i>librarians</i> to find that wealth of information <i>always </i>contained in obscure national and regional newspaper articles and from which named newspapers had been quoting. Taken together these quotes are hugely unsettling even as they paint the overall compelling picture described: undeclared war with seeming aliens... ...Though, resist the temptation to dismiss all this out of hand, won't you, as strong as that temptation gets. You're perhaps laughing a little too loudly a little too shrilly, eh? Follow the <i>data </i>remember; besides, take heart. My feeling is that there is <i>more good incorporated in the affair </i>than <i>bad</i>.<br />
<br />
Back to the story, Feschino interviewed many first-hand witnesses in Braxton County, persons seeing UFOs pass overhead that day. He has audio and video recordings of these interviews providing for an astonishing evidentiary path. Additionally, being a talented, school trained and well accomplished artist, he was also able to sit down and make composite drawings of the objects these witnesses saw that night. Some of these objects were indeed seen "at close range" and flying "at tree top level"!<br />

<br />
<i>Moreover</i>, provoked by his appearance on many radio shows and at book signings over the years, Frank has also been provided with newspaper articles from listeners and readers who had so kindly searched their <i>own </i>local libraries for more information regarding these undeniably existential unidentified objects. All of the articles gathered by Feschino indicate that a <i>plethora </i>of UFOs, sky objects, flying saucers, mysterious lights or so-called meteors, were <i>unquestionably </i>seen during that day by a mass of sincere individuals. Things get weirder, reader, stay the track.<br />
<br />
The sheer amount of sightings occurring in the effected time period circa 9/12/52 was absolutely staggering to say the least as the reader will see up ahead! Furthermore, much of the most abundant UFO information Feschino found was actually contained in the heretofore un-sifted civilian and military reports of the September 12, 1952 <b><i><u>Project Blue Book</u></i></b> files! This is <a href="http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/officiality">officiality</a> of unassailable authority as regards the highly strange, reader. Even with Government's heavy handed and purposeful gaffs and seeming misdirections found within it, to start:<br />
<br />
1). According to the September 12, 1952 Project Blue Book records, a large flaming UFO flew west over the Capitol and was labeled by the Project as the "well known Washington area meteor." This appears to be a conscious and deliberate misinformation.<br />
<br />
2).The Akron Astronomy Club report, which was contained in Project Bluebook had also documented the alleged object. That report stated that this alleged "FIREBALL" (<i>not</i> "meteor" proper) was sighted at "Approximately 19:00 E.S.T." <i>Noted</i>!<br />
<br />
3).This same report also stated the length of time for which it was sighted. The object was recorded as having a, "Duration: 5-6 seconds." Note <i>that </i>too, reader!<br />
<br />
See, contrary to the Air Force's Bluebook evaluations and findings regarding this alleged "single Fireball meteor," Feschino discovered numerous wrinkles in the officially touted "authoritative account." The official "Stuff" just didn't add up. One plus One <i>never </i>sums at 25! Watch!<br />
<br />
See, that "duration of 5-6 seconds" was to endure for quite an <i>unreasonable </i>stretch in the first place... a stretch decidedly longer than 5 or 6 seconds... as the reader will see up ahead! Interesting to note: The New York Times called the Object, "The Flame Over Washington" in their article dated, September 13, 1952. It was reported by Washington witnesses that, "the blazing object moved horizontally across the sky and came awfully low." This is noted, in the second place, as <i>decidedly</i> unmeteor-like behavior!<br />
<br />
Additionally, in the third place, vetted documentation discovered by Feschino actually shows us that American civilians and Military officials in the United States <i>had reported, not meteors, but numerous </i><b><i><u>UFOs</u></i></b><i> to a multitude of authorities</i> on September 12, 1952, causing quite a stir and commotion for an alleged meteor passing overhead for "5 or 6 seconds, follow? <br />
<br />
Whatever the case, Feschino's map is <i>very much a testament</i> to the ludicrous assessment that such <i>monstrous </i>activity can be attributed to a <i>single </i>fireball meteor lasting for a mere 5 or 6 seconds in the sky, eh? ...And <i>advised </i>UFOs are officially <i>reported </i>as meteors? Thus appears so!<br />
<br />
One such example is a military report made by an Air Force pilot flying a C-46 military aircraft. He reported a flaming UFO passing over and in front of his plane and in a "steady dive." He stated he saw an "Unidentified aerial object directly over Greensboro, North Carolina at 7,000 feet." This same unknown object was also seen and reported by control tower personnel at Greensboro Highpoint Airport.<br />
<br />
The pilot, a battle hardened colonel, witnessed the object along with an observing USAF Major and Captain. Hugely moved, the colonel promptly filed a, "CIRVIS" report: "Communications Instructions for Reporting Vital Intelligence Sightings."<br />
<br />
A "JANAP, Joint-Army-Navy-Air Force publication 146 (D)" <i>description </i>of a CIRVIS report reads: "102. SCOPE-A. This publication is limited to the reporting of information of vital importance to the security of the United States of America and Canada and their Forces, which in the opinion of the observer requires <i>very urgent defensive and/or investigative action by the United States or Canada</i>." Italics mine. Most meteors, one must agree, do not qualify as of vital importance to the security of the United States of America, Canada, and their Forces.<br />
<br />
Now reader, buckle up for the coup de grâce. The official "Project 10073 Record Card" evaluation of this very same case, prompting a CIRVIS report filed by the Air Force colonel, remember, <b><i>was recorded by Bluebook as a "Meteor"!</i></b> "Meteors," reader, don't provoke CIRVIS reports!<br />
<br />
Figures lie and liars figure...<br />
<br />
Conversely, additional "officail" information concludes that this well observed UFO was very likely the "12 September meteor sighting throughout the east coast area." What would support this unsupported stretch by Bluebook, reader, but a desire to contribute to a cover-up? A single meteor in the sky for a few paltry seconds is <b><i>not</i></b> justification for the near panic and frenzy alluded to, it's appearance all over the States for many hours at different times, the official reports filed, and the fretful concern of a reporting populace... <br />
<br />
Sometimes "fishy," reader, <i>is a real fish</i>!<br />
<br />
Strangely enough, this sighting occurring directly over Greensboro in a "steady dive" at /20:00 EDT, <i>had actually occurred at the same time the "flaming object" passed west over Washington, DC!</i> The "object of concern" is reported to have "moved horizontally across the sky and came awfully low." Meteor? I don't think so.<br />
<br />
Moreover, <i>how can two meteors be in two different places at the same time... when they're not anywhere at all?</i> The short answer is they can't.<br />
<br />
No, these objects were seeming to be <b><i><u>two</u></i></b> separate <i>damaged </i>UFOs flying over two different cities, on different flight paths and having different trajectories. More on this in a moment. Remains, a blatant cover-up, reader, becomes <i>increasingly </i>obvious.<br />
<br />
Resolved, the preceding UFO activity caused quite a kafuffle with observers. The following agencies and departments were documented as fretfully contacted in the time period alluded to with regard to sighted UFOs... not meteors:<br />
<br />
1. The Pentagon<br />
2. USAF Bases<br />
3. The Air Defense Command Headquarters located at Ent AFB, Colorado Springs, Colorado.<br />
4. The United States Navy<br />
5. State Police Headquarters<br />
6. Local Police Headquarters<br />
7. Airports<br />
8. Civil Aeronautics Administration<br />
9. Newspaper offices<br />
10. Government Agencies<br />
11. The FBI<br />
<br />
Again, meteors don't generally provoke a significant kafuffle that <i>everyone seems to get the facts wrong on</i>. Curious!<br />
<br />
Now, a result of two decades plus of impressive research, Feschino compiled all of the September 12, 1952 UFO sighting informations into categories by each State. He then began to analyze the information in each sighting and made comparisons as to similarity and differences between the UFOs in each of these determined groups. This included their <i>locations</i>, their <i>shapes</i>, their <i>sizes</i>, their <i>flight characteristics</i>, their <i>trajectories </i>and their <i>time</i> <i>stamps </i>where each sighting occurred. The reader sees perhaps the potential of this more <i>focused </i>information.<br />
<br />
If one can account for "what" was "<i>where</i>," <u>when</u>... one can account for <i>activity </i>again! Feschino accomplishes just that.<br />
<br />

<br />
By making these comparisons, Feschino, a more than competent illustrator, had also figured out the actual number of different UFOs seen that day and could use his drawings and paintings to assist him in his work. Then, on a huge seeing-is-believing 1:250,000 scale "Master Map," Feschino plotted the numerous sighting locations of these UFOs<i> in flight</i>, the locations where some <i>landed</i>, and the areas where some had been reported to have <i>crashed</i>. See reader, by piecing together a meticulous time-line of documented events occurring that night and "connecting the dots," he formed trajectories in a real-time audit trail that could be <i>seen</i>! Feschino is able to discover that there were actually <i>twenty-five</i> different and distinct UFOs, all of which flew over ten eastern States of the US that day.<br />
<br />
Feschino establishes a definite pattern from the data showing that four of these 25 UFOs passing over the United States that night had displayed <i>very different characteristics than the others</i>. These four UFOs regarded had pieces <i>falling </i>from them, they were <i>exploding </i>while in flight, they were on <i>fire</i>, they displayed sparkling showers<i> </i>of flaming <i>detritus</i>, all while flying erratically and seemingly in distress! Many of these sightings were made no higher than tree-top level. <br />

<br />
Yes reader, these four UFOs were apparently damaged, <i>as if in combat even</i>, and most important of all, they had all made repeated crash-landings... only to take off again as they hobbled across the United States like <i>wounded birds</i>. To the point, reader, these damaged craft were puddle-jumping across the US trying to exit the area or avoid their harassers and pursuers: us, in other words!<br />

<br />
Combined, these four objects demonstrated that they had <i>crash-landed a total of thirteen times</i> in three different states: <i>West Virginia</i>, <i>Tennessee </i>and <i>South Carolina</i>. <br />
<br />
Subsequently, and with the help of others, Feschino is then able to reconstruct a precise scenario of events based on the facts as to what very likely happened on that fateful date. Still, what remains so astonishing about this mapping initiative, reader, is this: were this data populated map to be a depiction of UFOs comprising their activities over a <i>decade</i>... it would be impressive enough. It must wholly shock if a only one <i>year </i>is depicted! A mere <i>month's </i>depiction and it becomes difficult to get your head around... a single <i>day </i>is simply inconceivable... but less?!<br />

<br />
On September 12, 1952, there were actually 21-hours reported of sustained UFO activity over ten eastern states between 1:30 am. and 10:30 pm! This very demonstrable time-line tells a far different story than the short-duration "single Fireball meteor" explanation as explained by <b><i>Project Blue Book</i></b>. The reader perhaps can begin to see the disconnect and seeming cover-up by the <b><i>extant </i></b>official version... Feschino's map is very much a testament to the <i>ludicrous </i>assessment that such <i>monstrous </i>activity can be attributed to that single fireball meteor lasting for that mere 5 or 6 seconds in the sky, eh?<br />
<br />
See, in mind numbing astonishment one discovers that, overall, the majority of the ufological activity depicted on Feschino's map is measured, not in <i>decades</i>, <i>years</i>, <i>weeks</i>, or even <i>days</i>... but in <i>right around an hour</i>... in and around the time of the "Flatwoods Monster" incident! Sincerely, this is where the ominous music is usually cued. <br />

<br />
See? These UFO sightings CANNOT be attributed to a lone Fireball meteor only "said" to have passed over Washington, DC that night at 19:00 EST for a duration of 5-6 seconds! Pause a moment, reader, to let that sink in. The official USAF explanation in no way fits the facts! This writer will not apologize for that.<br />
<br />
It's not <b><i>my</i></b> cultural cowardice. <br />
<br />
Meteors don't hang in the air for almost a full day, eh? We better <i>hope</i> they don't! Furthermore, it was documented by a commercial airline pilot who actually reported a UFO very nearly clipping the wing off his passenger plane near Wheeling, WV, that very night!<br />
<br />
This "meteor"? It was actually one of the four seemingly damaged UFOs. ...And hold your laughter, please... pause for a moment and ask yourself: what if all this were true?<br />
<br />
Pause to consider where the laughter actually goes upon the discovery that, in parallel with seven categories of very compelling evidence as regards UFOs in the aggregate, undeclared war is seemingly waged on unknown entities for which a <i>provenance </i>has not been determined (that we know)! "We" don't know if the entity proscribed is a time traveler, a social exercise, a military intelligence scenario, dead ancestors, "Agnes," or "Angus"! <br />
<br />
See reader, the "well known Washington area meteor of 12 September" remains to appear to be but one of four damaged UFOs going down that night—I repeat again for meaningful emphasis. This is all we can <i>reasonably</i> say unreasonable as that is. <i>Bird's</i>, <i>bolides</i>, <i>balloons</i>, and rocket <i>boosters </i>seem to <i>recuse </i>themselves.<br />
<br />
<i>Something </i>engulfed in flames passed over the Capitol at a low altitude on a western heading at about 19:00 EST. <i>Something </i>continued West, flew over Virginia proper, passed over <i>West </i>Virginia, then abruptly redirected south above the State to fly over Flatwoods, reader, where it redirected again to then finally land on the Fisher Farm 206 miles later as Feschino's maps illustrate... Such can be seen to seem so.<br />
<br />
In short—and let's cut to the gob-smacking chase—the numerous other UFO sightings occurring that night over the ten eastern States can be attributed to two conservatively considered "Alien Search and Rescue" efforts. These are seeming efforts and initiatives made apparent by the activities of several other UFOs as witnessed and plotted on the aforementioned aeronautical MAP used by the military, remember, to interdict themselves vis a vis their distressed comrades.<br />
<br />
This writer advises that <i>all </i>the aforementioned appears to <i>this </i>old combat aviator as a rescue initiative: rescuers descending all over the South Eastern United States in a seeming attempt to retrieve their downed craft and occupants in the Wheeling, WV and Flatwoods locations, just as I would attempt to do, and have attempted to do as a military professional in combat: with blocking actions, feints, misdirections, strategic retreats, and even a show of force once when extracting some wounded personnel from a fire base in Vietnam circa 1970. No apologies here either. <br />
<br />
Laugh if you will but the evidence seems to have a klieg light on this series of peculiar events as <i>happening</i>, and from a plethora of disparate reportage initiatives, all first person, at the time! This is truly overpowering!<br />
<br />
Note too, several east coast newspapers actually reported "meteors" and "meteor showers" over their areas as an explanation to the September 12, 1952 phenomenon. I quote some headlines here; "Flashing Meteors Scare Residents In Three State Area," also, "Fireballs Shower City Area," as well as "Balls of Fire in Pittsburgh" additionally, "Residents Over Ohio Valley Excited as Heavenly Meteor Hurls Off Bright Fragments" and "Big Meteor Flashes Over Four States."<br />
<br />
Well reader, "It's what they <i><b>must</b></i> have been ... ET is frivolously impossible!" Is it? Again, the seven categories of evidence alluded to above would discount that. These categories include:<br />
<br />
1. The Historical textual documents glyphed in soot and cut into stone or otherwise writ in ancient inks on cracking vellum,<br />
2. The extant Artistic Historical from primitives on the walls of their caves, through Middle-Age wood-cuts, to the masterpieces of the masters on rough canvas and slick gesso later on<br />
3. The quality Anecdotal reports backed up by multiple vetted witnesses and corresponding radar<br />
4. The genuine Photographic efforts prior to digital photography provided by Dr. Bruce Maccabee, et sig al<br />
5. The extant Physical Traces of landing UFOs as laboriously outlined by Ted Phillips and others<br />
6. The "wholly Personal" evidence, if you have any as I do and<br />
7. Even the Mathematical, reader, as it is described in modern physics regarding the consequences of satisfying requirements accounting for "the formality of the actual occurrence" of something physical in this multi-verse (humanity "happened" so "others" must) but, specifically, as it is described in <b><i><u>Probability One</u></i></b> by Amir D. Aczel, PhD. <br />
<br />
Alien intelligence, reader, seems a certainty! Moreover, the evidence—entirely if ironically in concert with Fermi—is that they <b><i>are </i></b>here! Pack that pipe and spark it.<br />
<br />
On the other hand, now, other newspapers actually strayed away from the far-fetched and unsupportable "meteor" explanation in their reportage; I quote the following headlines, "Four States Bombarded by Meteor-<i>like </i>Objects," also, "Mystery Lights Zip Through Skies Here Stirring Mild Furor," as well as "Saucer Talk in Four States," and "Strange Lights Observed Over Four States." Curiouser and Curiouser.<br />
<br />
One witness in West Virginia stated that one of these flaming objects, thought to be a "plane aflame," had actually landed atop a high hill between two radio transmission towers in the Wheeling, WV area, but when the State Police went to the scene, they "failed to find a plane." It had taken off! A Washington witness said, "<i>Suddenly this thing came swooping down from the eastern skies. It looked like it was just above the treetops,</i>" and Mr. Rosenthal, a witness in Baltimore, told the press, he first saw it "swinging 'treetop' level," and said it resembled "<i>a plane on fire.</i>"<br />
<br />
One of my favorite reports was made by a Baltimore witness, an "Army veteran" who stated, "It was a flying saucer... the darned thing swooped down... and then up again. It seemed to follow the contour of the road."<br />
<br />
In Virginia, a witness reported his sighting to the USAF and said, "I don't know what it was I saw and will insist on what it was NOT. I have seen meteors, and the press will have a hard time telling me I was looking at a meteor on 9/12...This THING was being flown." Well, there you have it. Meteors are <i>not </i>self-directing.<br />
<br />
Yet despite these UFO reports and the many, many more that Feschino has discovered, numerous people still thought of and labeled these strange <i>maneuvering </i>objects as "meteors." This seems official lie well inculcated as truth.<br />
<br />
In Arcadia, Tennessee, near Kingsport, there was a "fruitless search for a wrecked plane." A "Baltimore, Sept. 13-AP" report stated, "An aerial object was reported to have struck the ground after streaking across the sky. A spokesman at Tri-cities Airport near Kingsport said the object had been identified as a meteor. Operations personnel at Andrews Air Force Base near Washington put a similar label on it. And Naval observatory officials said reports received made it sound to them 'like a typical meteor.'"<br />
<br />
Oh, by the way reader, and before I forget, the Tennessee object—said to be a "typical meteor"— was flying southwest before it went down in Arcadia... It had actually penetrated the "Oak Ridge National Laboratory Air Defense Identification Zone" by seventy miles before it landed! This reader, is only 90-miles northeast of this security sensitive national laboratory for nuclear research. Furthermore, by extending the object's southwest flight path, we can see that this UFO was on a direct course toward it!!! Now, what was up with that?<br />
<br />

To finally smother this continued reference to meteors and flaming bolides—officially and for the record books people: there is NO record in a learned and professional astronomy of any bona fide meteoric activity that night, really, ANYWHERE!<br />
<br />
ANYWHERE!<br />
<br />
Provided, then, is the updated information of the plotted 116 locations—<i><b>yellow stars</b></i> on above maps—where witnesses sighted and reported different UFOs flying directly over the following ten eastern region States of the country. The <b><i>plain red stars</i></b> indicate the UFO crash landing sites of the damaged objects. The <b><i>green stars </i></b>in the eastern Ohio, Northern West Virginia, and western Pennsylvania areas indicate other UFO landing—presumed—search sites. The <b><i>blue stars</i></b> indicate airports and the <b><i>red stars with silver dots</i></b> are USAF bases and Naval Air Stations. The 116 sightings occurred over the following ten eastern states:<br />
<br />
1. Delaware<br />
2. Maryland<br />
3. North Carolina<br />
4. Ohio<br />
5. Pennsylvania<br />
6. South Carolina<br />
7. Tennessee<br />
8. Virginia<br />
9. Washington D.C.<br />
10. West Virginia<br />
<br />
There were two additional states where UFOs were sighted on September 12, 1952:<br />
<br />
11. California<br />
12. Illinois<br />
<br />
Curiously, the Project Blue Book records <i>did not include</i> the sightings occurring over four states; <i>Delaware</i>, <i>Ohio</i>, <i>South Carolina</i> or <i>Tennessee</i>. To date, meteoric impact pits <i>have yet to be found in any of these areas</i>.<br />

Also, for a focus on the United States Air Force UFO air-war history, as effecting suspect alien, man, and machine, look for <b><i><u>Shoot Them Down</u></i></b>, a parallel research concentrating more on the air-war. Remember, too, as you consider the preceding: 1950s Science Fiction might very well <i>have actually occurred</i>! <br />
<br />
Sincerely, very <i>reasonable </i>reader, given repeated incursions by multi-observed and bona fide UFOs into critical and so restricted airspaces in the Washington area (fact!), orders to shoot down these intruders WERE issued (fact!), furious UFO and Military air activity occurred in and around West Virginia on September 12, 1952 subsequent to these orders of deadly force (fact!), and a heavy, loaded-to-the-gills-battalion of Army infantry led by Colonel Dale Leavitt of boots, boats, and bazookas was dispatched to look for <b><i><u>something</u></i></b> peculiar in the Flatwoods and Frametown WV area that night, <b><i>NOT barn owls or cross-dressing space ghosts seen by impressionable hillbilly kids. Fact. </i></b><br />
<br />
<b><i>Additionally, and on videotape, Colonel Leavitt told Feschino, "Something was a cover-up."</i></b><br />
<br />
Closing: a certain frankness is required and sincerely used to tell a perceived ridiculous and seemingly unspeakable story... ...<i>that all the credible evidence says is true</i>.<br />

<span style="font-size: x-large;">F</span>rank Feschino <b><u>lives</u></b> my friend! Remember him as you pretend you took no sides when he'd disclosed... his tale to us on <b><i><u><a href="http://www.virtuallystrange.net/ufo/sdi/podcasts/sdi468hi.mp3" target="_blank">Errol's</a></u></i></b> show.<br />
.<br />
<span style="font-size: x-large;">I</span>nvited, he just tells the story. There is no reward or glory, <em>just a smear by those </em><a href="http://education.yahoo.com/reference/dictionary/entry/effuse"><em>effused</em></a><em> with ignorance* that Frank refutes</em>. It's at this point I have to add: "reward" and "glory" <b><i><u>should</u></i></b> be had. Feschino's earned it truth be known, he's hewn a path it has been shown...<br />
.<br />
<span style="font-size: x-large;">N</span>ot that he'd <em>expected</em> praise; he is dismayed at the "disgrace." See, all he did was <em>sift too well</em> the "well raked dust" of <b>Bluebook's</b> "tell." Too, <i>what was told</i> as data's sieved, and <i>facts appear</i> we can't forgive? Why, a <i>betrayal </i>of the trust which others missed! It's not<em> discussed</em>! ...Or, what occurs when trust's abused, and all Frank's work was then misused... to cheaply make the printer's buck, a steaming pile of "published suck"...<br />
.<br />
<span style="font-size: x-large;">H</span>auling data, Frank's returned. Sixteen years his search had churned! Too, he's been busy "prosecuting" all the claims expressed <i>refuting</i>! Truth be told, it's all worked out... and documented, hope to shout. <b>Project Bluebook</b> as I said, a trove of treasure as it's read. Then, in print: named journalists describing facts as <b><i><u>they</u></i></b> exist! Last, "first-persons" make account what <b><i><u>they</u></i></b> all saw to fly about... <b><i><u>together</u></i></b> all this paints a picture. If we but <i><a href="http://www.macmillandictionary.com/us/dictionary/american/cop-to" target="_blank">copped</a></i>, we'd be the richer.<br />
.<br />
<span style="font-size: x-large;">S</span>till, dismiss him—and the stars—plus all of ones <i>professed</i> regard to hoeing righteous rows in science! <em>The lack of which <u>tempts</u> pseudoscienc</em>e. See, he <i>pinpoints</i>, <i>plots</i>, and <i>notes </i>the time-hacks... ...points where UFOs had made their impact. He defines an audit trail! It's the saucer's holy grail!<br />
.<br />
<span style="font-size: x-large;">L</span>o, some were damaged, spitting smoke. This was <i>reported</i>, not a joke: connected points, <i>established flight-paths... of UFOs</i>. Now, <u style="font-style: italic; font-weight: bold;">there's</u> your cold draught!<br />
.<br />
<span style="font-size: x-large;">S</span>eems Frank might be, what I sure feel... <b><i><u>is</u></i></b> the righteous, real deal. The harbinger of fact portrayed: a truth resembling hand grenades!<br />
.<br />
<span style="font-size: x-large;">T</span>oo, there's interest from lettered principals most agree are more than sensible. Massive data must sustain more truth per drop than's been maintained by <em>specious</em> words or <em>ill</em> campaigns employed to cant considered brains!<br />
.<br />
<span style="font-size: x-large;">F</span>rank's been at this, <b><i><u>years</u></i></b>, my friend! See, you've the "cant," I would contend. You condemned him <i>without </i>reading, without so much as even reaching! <em>Then locked ranks to shut him out without a thought t'what he's about</em>!<br />
.<br />
<span style="font-size: x-large;">T</span>oo, all because his book was <em>raped (!)</em> dispatched to an ignoble <em>jape</em>; perverted by an errant press and hacked beyond belief: <i>oppressed</i>! Ask Don Ledger who contends: that "errant press," <em>too</em>, hacked on <i><u>him</u></i>!<br />
.<br />
...<span style="font-size: x-large;">S</span>ome reactive meme dispatched, to aid "pro-active effort's" crash? Folks who can't see other venues, the "blinkered fools" with jealous "menus," these must have it all their way... <em>or make the rest, then, rue their day</em>! ...Though, truth is truth and shall not go the way that one might want, you know?<br />
.<br />
<span style="font-size: x-large;">F</span><span style="font-size: large;">rank has, <em>frankly</em>, done the work where others, <em>frankly</em>, weren't alert! This must help to open doors obstructed by "convention's" force, <em>a force maintaining world views of niggards wishing mundane news</em>!</span><br />
.<br />
<u><span style="font-size: x-large;">S</span>hoot</u> <u>Them</u> <u>Down</u> is called a hoax and <i>mocked</i>, <i>insulted</i>... made a joke, <em>but now it has deserving edit</em>, a second look provokes its credit! Too! Feschino's story's caught the eye of persons more amazed than I!<br />
.<br />
<span style="font-size: x-large;">T</span>hough, Frank's accused of a "destruction " a "very silly" contrived "construction "... built to "bring the 'study' down..." <em><u>already</u> limping and unsound</em>!<br />
.<br />
<span style="font-size: x-large;">B</span>ut that's a crock, the data's there! <em>This has one by the shortest hair</em>. See, it's in the record no one read! <em>If it's a snake, it's bit! You're <b><u>dead</u></b></em>!<br />
.<br />
<span style="font-size: x-large;">C</span>ondon was a liar, hoss, and what's that fare, friend? What's our loss? <em>What <b><u>would</u></b> we be if we weren't slaves... ...and <b><u>faced</u></b> our future</em>... acted brave? <br />
.</div>
<div>
...<span style="font-size: x-large;">T</span>ruth is better through my lens... ...<em>facilitates <u>respect</u>, my friend </em>.<br />
.<br />
<span style="font-size: x-large;">T</span>oo, I... suspect that Frank's sincere, accept his work (<em>oh my... oh dear</em>!), and show that it's not Frank to say... compelling truth! <strong><em>No, that's "Bluebook's" play</em></strong>.<br />
.<br />
<span style="font-size: x-large;">S</span>ee? Over half the data's there. All had missed the "thread," Mon Frère! Likely blinded by Herr Condon... ill perceived "non-truth," the problem. Dick and Jerry*, primrose "led" to be so hard-nosed, and that said? Science fiction <b><i><u>is</u></i></b> far off... but data driven? <em>Those shoes drop</em>!<br />
.<br />
<span style="font-size: x-large;">I</span>t won't impede the crushing fact that "Shoot Them Down" was "orders," Jack! We would want a saucer bad, <em>so risk a war with "others"!</em> Mad!<br />
.<br />
<span style="font-size: x-large;">T</span>oo, it's not like we can't be <em>stupid</em>... <em>addled</em>, <em>brainless</em>… less than <em>lucid</em>, caught within the errant snare that we're "alone," <em>but au contraire</em>!
...<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: x-large;">N</span>ow I don't know what I've found out is truly what it's all about, <em>but I respect what Frank has done</em>... what he's <em>late</em> writ and by the ton! Too, some heavy-weights have waded in? Those who scoffed, <em>prepare your chins</em>!<br />
.<br />
<span style="font-size: x-large;">F</span>riedman, Cox, and Porterfield know the data cited's <b><i><u>real</u></i></b>. Good and Barker make a case, and Maccabee has interest placed. <em>Responsible, one follows data, the rest is bupkis; zero... nada.</em><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">.</span><br />
<em></em><span style="font-size: x-large;">T</span>hink! There is more that has been <em>missed</em> if these men think this might <em>exist</em>. If I'm wrong, I'll say "mea culpa", <em>double-slap my face like Culkin</em>, apologize in verse and prose... admit that "you" were on the nose. I don't believe I'm wrong, at all; <em>convictions "soar and cleave"</em>—my call! <br />
.<br />
<span style="font-size: x-large;">J</span>ust remember out of tact, that good men died and <i>that's a fact</i>, when UFOs traversed the sky and our jets chased them, Frank confides. We would try to <b><i>shoot them down</i></b>, just to have one, how unsound. "Lurid duels of death," described, precludes denials—as denied—that we would fight an air war, then, with our jet planes and our brave men. Though that is what, it seems to me, what had occurred, and with ET. <br />
.<br />
<span style="font-size: x-large;">D</span>ata has direction, friend, conclusions are arrived at when: the picture "painted" makes all sense, is coming clean on its first rinse, and is not stretched or made contrived—presuming any sense survived—and what remains must fit the facts t'would all admit was such as that.<br />

...<br />
<br />
Three generations of serious UFO researchers just missed it; the biggest flap in United States History, a flap of which we too faintly or even barely heard. 1952s Summer Of Saucers: a plethora of saucers extant and unambiguous orders to... Shoot Them Down.<br />
<br />
Three generations of "UFO Hunters" from Keyhoe to Kimball, reader, <em>never recognized the fumbled ufological ball</em>!<br />
<br />
Gray Barker, of all people, got close... he knew this was a puzzle with many pieces, but he didn't have Bluebook.<br />
<br />
A "special thank you" is extended to Dr Edward Condon, then, the <em>stealth spook</em> and <em>authoritarian obfurator</em> who <b><i><u>had</u></i></b> Bluebook in toto and blew it off of cowardly needs <em>niggardly</em>, decidedly <em>short sighted</em>, and <em>dangerous</em>. Ignorance always is. Shame <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Condon_Report">Dr. Condon</a>! Shame!<br />
<br />
Ask Stanton Friedman... the generation between Keyhoe and Kimball—presuming I'm forgiven this stretch to alliteration—he'll admit he missed it, I'm betting. But presented to him in the data rich manner in which it is offered? <br />
<br />
He, as do some <a href="http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/perspicacious" target="_blank">perspicacious</a> others, caught Feschino's train, reader, only Stan shovels coal in the tractor, and officiates at the caboose! Read on.
