File O' The Damned: Aliens Invade America!
Fizz Magazine, December 1997
by Skylaire Alfvegren
The CIA is too busy overthrowing democratically elected governments in South America to deal with the ragtags who gather for UFO conventions; still, jokes are made about lecturers being tapped. When asked if the government were hiding their alien contact from the public, one observer commented "They could barely hide their sale of arms to the Contras; what makes you think they could hide ETs?" Conferences are a forum for non-academics to present their ideas, that's important, but shouldn't do away with principles of research. Everything in moderation.
In Closing
In a nutshell, my message for today is: don't be a sucker. Ask questions, read books, think thoughts. Few people have all the answers, and they all sit on the Bilderberg Committee, and you can't talk to them anyway. The UFO question is still shrouded in mystery. Ask: Why are sightings of certain types of 'ET' craft concentrated in one part of the world? Why did triangular, mile-wide 'holographs' make nonstop appearances over Europe last year ('Coast to Coast' host Art Bell reported one of North America's only sightings of such a craft in Nevada)? Why is Mexico inundated with 'plasma crafts', nebulous orbs pulsating with soft, amber light, which appear almost no where else? The naive days of George Adamski, Kenneth Arnold and Valiant Thor (a dapper emissary from the planet we call Venus) may be over, but the UFO question has only grown more complex. It would take a helluva lot more than pie tins to fake a saucer scare in this day and age....
