Abductee Betty Hill Expected "Millions" For Alien Story

As I was researching a follow-up to my last story concerning Kathleen Marden, the niece of famous alien abductee Betty Hill, I stumbled across an obscure comment tucked away in the far recesses of the Internet that blows a major hole in the entire Betty and Barney Hill abduction case.

In a 2007 article titled First Lady of the Grays, writer Tom Lombardo recounts his 1974 interview with the alien abduction superstar Betty Hill. For the first time in over 30 years, Tom Lombardo reveals a comment Betty Hill made to him after the interview, once the tape recorder was switched off, that rocks the very foundation of the Ufology and abductee community.

Betty Hill's Passing Opens A Can of Worms

What started as a simple background article about Betty Hill's niece, Kathleen Marden, and her latest revelations about her aunt's abduction many decades ago, might very well turn into yet another RealityUncovered fraud expose if this story leads in that direction. Based on Tom Lombardo's claim, it appears that the larger fraud-hunting guns of RU may be required. The strange thing about this revelation is that anyone hunting for information about Betty Hill might never have found it. For some reason the PDF article is stored away in the recesses of the web server of a Christian Bookstore named the Swedenborg Foundation. However, searching for the name "Kathleen Marden" eventually turned up this obscure PDF article, and what a discovery it turned into.

I am pleased to announce that TopSecretWriters is moving to a new hosted domain - meaning an actual website. Our new address is now TopSecretWriters.com. That's plural, by the way.

Please set up your bookmarks and notes, and check out the cool new design. For the time being, I'm migrating all blog posts from this blog to the new domain, with summaries remaining on this blog.

Each time www.TopSecretWriters.com is updated with new content, I'll also be updating this Blogger blog with the latest as well, and a link to the article itself. So, whether you continue following this blog or the new one, you'll get the latest news.

So What's The Latest Then?

There's a lot going on in the world of RealityUncovered research. In fact, there's so much that I find myself getting around to updating this blog at 3 a.m., because it's the only time I've got available. There are amazing revelations coming through on all fronts. This year, there's a great deal of progress on a lead that ended up as a dead-end last year. With new sources and a few new members/colleagues who are contributing tremendously to RU research, progress is no longer stalled.

Expect an update within a few weeks - and prepare yourself for it. This one is far more groundbreaking than any of the rest.

Meanwhile, feel free to follow other paranormal articles and musings at Invisible Articles, or if you're into Sci-Fi, at the new LoveToKnow Science Fiction Channel. There's also very likely going to be a new UFO channel there that I'll be heading up, hopefully this year. Stay tuned for all of the latest news.

 

Bruce Maccabee – A Case Study of a Regular Ufologist

Bruce Maccabee is an interesting figure within the history of Ufology. He unknowingly played a pivotal role in the distribution of Ufology’s “Core Story,” related to the MJ-12 storyline.

In the latest “Rotten to The Core” update at RealityUncovered.net, the folks at RealityUncovered.com have revealed another significant piece of the puzzle related to the earliest days of the CIA’s interest in Ufology. In particular, his interactions with the CIA during the late 1970’s provide insight into the thought process and activities of CIA officials who were also interested at the same time in the field of parapsychology, as evidenced in the later declassified “Stargate” documents.

Maccabee obtained a bachelor’s degree at Worcester Polytechnic Institute, and then a Masters and a Doctorate in Physics at The American University in Washington, D.C. He’s certainly no fool. His reports on UFO sightings are filled with valuable and informative, yet somewhat dry, data and analysis of UFO events.

Portugese Fraudster Nuno Alves - UFO Magazine Gets It Wrong

In a perfect example of the terrible state of Ufology in the world today, I received the following story today via email from a friend. The story comes from Brazilian Ufologist Pepe Chaves, who deserves a medal of Valor and Honor for his relentless efforts to bring Truth and Honor back to a field that's overrun by charlatans and con-artists.

The following article was writting by Pepe, however I have taken the liberty of re-editing the article for our American readers. Pepe did a wonderful job with the article, but English is not his first language, so some of the passages are not as clear as they could have been. Pepe, if you are reading this, I hope you do not mind. Again - very much respect for your excellent and ethical work, and good job to your fellow researchers for exposing this fraudster to the world.

UFO Core Story Revealed By RealityUncovered.net

After several years of digging, fact-checking, collecting and analyzing data, and observing social networks within the UFO community - the hoax-busting researchers at RealityUncovered.net (which in fairness, I must disclose that I co-founded with Stephen Broadbent) is finally moving forward with releasing all information and data collected over the course of those years.

This data collection started with an analysis of a story called Serpo - a hoaxed story about a 1950's alien/human exchange program first released in 2005. Researchers quickly ascertained Rick Doty as the source, and from that point on the data and evidence gathered painted a disturbing picture of an elaborate scam stretching back several decades, and touching on age-old Ufology tales such as MJ12, Roswell, and more.

One central element to this several-year study is a "Core Story" created by three individual scientists, many years ago in the early 1980s, during a late-night philosophical discussion at a Denny's Restaurant. Those three scientists were Jacques Vallee, Christopher "Kit" Green, and Harold Puthoff.

Dan Smith - Who's That?

If you've been following UFOlogy for years, you've probably heard of the likes of Bruce Maccabee, J. Allen Hynek, or Jacques Vallee, but you've probably never heard of Mr. Dan Smith.

The story of this man actually starts back in the 1970s and 1980s when he started out as a researcher of crop circles. In a parallel story, around the same time, Bruce Maccabee was busy researching New Zealand UFO sightings and was subsequently contacted first by Dr. Christopher Green of the CIA, and then later by Dr. Ronald Pandolfi, Dr. Green's successor. The short story is that they each invited Maccabee to the CIA to provide some background, not only regarding his New Zealand research, but also regarding UFOlogy overall. Maccabee was also the UFOlogist who Pandolfi tasked with writing up a brief for Clinton's scientific advisor on the current state of UFOlogy.

Given these activities, it's little surprise to learn that Pandolfi also contacted crop circle researcher, Dan Smith, around the same time.

The E-Meter Scam - Using a Belief System for Profit

If anyone has ever thoroughly studied Dr. Hal Puthoff's history, it quickly becomes apparent that his activities throughout the years go far beyond simple scientific research. Hal has consistently and aggressively pursued any and all avenues of alternative funding for fringe research. The most important question any researcher should ask is this:

Would a "genius" scientist, who was a renowned quantum laser expert, truly believe that such a ridiculously simple and basic electronic device as the "E-Meter" could seriously be considered as a new discovery? Surely, a man trained in the electrical engineering aspects of lasers would recognize the history and operation of such a basic galvanometer?

The Mad Science of Alien and UFO Myths

During World War II, the rumors of Nazi Germany developing paranormal capabilities of the mind eventually led to interest by the fledgling post-war CIA. In 1961, Chief of OTS (Office of Technical Service) contacted Stephen I. Abrams, head of Parapsychological Laboratory at Oxford University on the subject of ESP (Extra-sensory perception). Abrams responded with a report that ESP appeared to exist, but could neither be understood, or controlled.

From that point up to the early 1970’s, the Agency had very little interest in psychic phenomenon.

Enter Hal Puthoff.

According to author Jim Schnabel, Hal served at the NSA in the early 1960's after serving in the Navy (Served as an officer in the Navy from 1960-63 at Ft. Meade), and later stayed on as a civilian. (Remote Viewers: The Secret History of America's Psychic Spies, Dell, 1997, pg 97)

After his doctorate at Stanford University, Hal became a lecturer in the electrical engineering department, and supervised Ph.D. candidates in EE and applied physics. In 1969, at the age of thirty-three, he obtained a patent on a tunable Raman (infrared) laser that he had invented. In addition, he co-authored a textbook entitled Fundamentals of Quantum Electronics, which became a standard volume in physics.

According to Ingo Swann, in his online book Biomindsuperpowers, he writes:

“The field of laser physics was on a great upswing by then, and by all accounts, as many later told me, Hal Puthoff was destined for laser engineering limelight, a field in which his scientific reputation had already achieved luminosity. A short while earlier in New York, Cleve Backster had advised me that Puthoff was a genius. Others I later met in the Silicon Valley area said so, too, and I accepted this as a matter of fact, albeit somewhat intimidated by being in the near proximity of a genius.. How and why it was that Hal's interests changed from laser physics to biofield measurements was never clear to me, and so I'll not be able to articulate much in this regard. We did discuss the matter, but somehow whatever we discussed has faded.”

Ingo’s point above is an important one. What could have prompted a genius physicist, on a stellar upward track of accomplishment and success within the field of laser physics, to switch to a field most contemporary physicists would, even today, consider career suicide? Why, between 1971-1972, did he suddenly divert his entire career path from the very successful field of laser physics, to "biofield measurements", and parapsychology?

Does the Government Spy On UFOlogists?

So you've picked up a new hobby, you're fascinated by UFOs and Alien abductions, and in the course of your research you start to wonder, Does the Government Spy on UFOlogists?

Answering the Question: Does the U.S. Spy on Ufologists?

There are very few names known within the mainstream world (people who have little-to-no interest in things like alien abductions and UFO sightings) like the famous Dr. Jacques Vallee.

Dr. Vallee is an astrophysicist and French astronomer who's fame skyrocketed when the classic film Close Encounters of the Third Kind was released in 1977 in which he worked as a scientific advisor to the film. He also has a Ph.D. in computer science from Northwestern, and lives and works in California. He was also heavily involved in Project Blue Book research researchers, and that background went a long way to developing his insight and expertise in the field. He has published numerous books on the subject matter, including the following examples (all highly recommended):

• CONFRONTATIONS: A Scientist's Search for Alien Contact
• DIMENSIONS: A Casebook of Alien Contact
• Messengers of Deception: UFO Contacts and Cults

An Expert Answers The Question

Jacques Vallee, the one man who would likely have a great deal of insight to the question whether or not the government is monitoring UFO hobbyists and researchers, answered the question in the 1990s in his interview with Green Egg, an Occult magazine. In the interview, Vallee states:

Another aspect of your question is that for a long time the UFOlogists have been blind to the fact that the phenomenon can be manipulated. In particular it can be manipulated by the government, by various intelligence groups or by different cults with their own agenda. I published over ten years ago in Messengers of Deception my conclusion that many of the UFO organizations had been infiltrated. That book got me in a lot of trouble with my friends in the UFO community who refused to look at that particular problem.

Since then, of course, this observation has been vindicated. One government informant has even come forward to reveal that he, in fact, had been recruited to befriend various UFOlogists and to write psychological profiles of them. Every UFO organization is monitored by government informers.

Consider the quote above carefully as we move forward with our examination of communications with former Intelligence officers who were involved with UFOlogists and paranormal/parapsychology researchers through the years. If what Vallee reports is true, that one government informant admitted he'd been recruited to get to know and collaborate with UFOlogists, and generate psychological profiles on them, then the next question we must ask is...why?

Vallee provides us with a few more clues when he continues:

On the board of the National Investigation Committee on Aerial Phenomena, which was one of the major organizations in this country in the ’50s and ’60s, were three people who were among the founders of psychological warfare. They were people with strong ties to the government and intelligence community. I’m not saying it’s necessarily illegal or wrong, but it should be recognized.

Psychological warfare is a hot issue in every military conflict - and methods to confuse and conflict the mind of the enemy are always being developed and researched by U.S. intelligence agencies.

Vallee goes on to stress this fact by reminding us that the 1953 Robertson Panel even recommended that UFO organizations should be watched and infiltrated, and according to Vallee, they were and still are.

This is a critical concept for us to consider and keep in mind moving forward.
