This
week I spoke with Greg Bishop of Radio Misterioso fame. I had thought we’d talk
about some of the UFO cases that he found interesting if they weren’t more than
ten years old. But he mentioned an interest in trends and patterns and we then ended
up talking about some of the trouble with abduction research. You can listen to
the show here:
When
we finished our discussion of abduction research, which was more of an analysis
of the research techniques and how out-of-date they had become, we switched
topics. We both seemed to believe that MUFON had lost its direction, moving
from UFO investigation and research into a profit driven organization which is
to say that money was more important than the research. An analysis of the
symposium program seemed to reinforce that view, suggesting the speakers had
been picked because they might fill seats with their tales of alien wars on
other planets. Although there is no real proof that any of that happened, those
wars on other planets, this secret space program as they called it was of great
interest to some. It didn’t really matter that most of what was being said was
preposterous as long as they paid for their entertainment.

This was a really good show, although I am partial because Greg is my favorite UFO researcher (sorry Kevin, you gotta come in second!). Project Beta was the best book on UFOs I have ever read and it is not even really about UFOs! Instead it was just a really well researched book about one of the strangest events in the history of the government's involvement in UFOs. Again. Great show Kevin!

Do I need to say, "Just kidding?"
Now if you were someone with the surname Horn I might have not realized your joke!
