UFO's and Their Physiological Effects: Are They a Boon or a Curse to Modern Medicine?

This lead article by Harry Tokarz delves into the alarming increase in harmful effects reported by UFO witnesses, particularly in close-range encounters. These effects range from temporary paralysis and blindness to radiation-type symptoms and psychological disorders. The article notes that few medical professionals openly recognize this as a legitimate field of concern. It suggests that medical problems are caused by a radiation "by-product" rather than hostility from UFO occupants. The electromagnetic field is highlighted as a potential clue to UFO function, with side effects requiring serious study. Witnesses have reported symptoms like nausea, conjunctivitis, severe headaches, and a feeling of "electrical shock," which are linked to electrical phenomena and biological system effects. Electromagnetic energy is suspected as the causative agent, potentially disrupting electrical systems. Catalepsy and unconsciousness can occur with increased energy levels, and paralysis can follow paresthetic effects, possibly as a controlled, selective, and temporary induced effect.

Case Study: Bicyclist Paralyzed

Yves David, in France, experienced a "prickling" sensation and paralysis while bicycling. He saw a disc-shaped machine and a small "being" that touched him before returning to the craft. After the craft ascended, David recovered and was treated for shock. Paresthesia is described as an early symptom of radiant energy from UFOs, often followed by interference with electrical systems.

Case Study: Eyesight Affected

Mrs. Pauline Dudgeon in Madoc, Ontario, suffered eyesight problems for months after observing a bright object in 1975. The intense light from the object bothered her eyes, and she became "entranced." Her vision was distorted, resembling exposure to a welder's arc, and took until 1976 to return to normal. The doctor suspected ultraviolet radiation but showed little interest in the source.

Propulsion Link

Prolonged ultra-violet rays and microwaves are linked to UFO propulsion systems. Microwaves can destroy plant root structures and create disorders in the human nervous system. The degree of ailment in witnesses appears proportionate to their nearness to the UFO's operational field and the duration of the sighting.

The Falcon Lake Case

On May 20, 1967, Steven Michalak, a Winnipeg prospector, encountered two unknown objects. One landed, and after about 25 minutes, a door opened emitting a brilliant purple light. Michalak touched the craft and was hit with a blast of hot air, causing burns in a checkerboard pattern. He experienced blackouts, nausea, and a drop in his lymphocyte count. Doctors were baffled, concluding he had a "foreign substance in his blood," and the government was criticized for its failure to recognize the problem.

Radioactive Poisoning Possible

Serious burns, like Michalak's, could be caused by intense infra-red radiation. There was a strong hint of radioactive poisoning in his case due to his dropped lymphocyte count and weight loss. UFOs surrounded by hot plasma could radiate energy across a broad spectrum.

Leukemia Death Follows Sighting

In 1956, Muriel McDowell of Santa Cruz, California, felt intense heat from a UFO and later died of leukemia four years later. The article suggests government secrecy regarding such fatal incidents.

The Hill Abduction

Betty and Barney Hill reported paresthesia and unusual lesions after an abduction. Barney had inflammation in a geometric circle on his groin, and Betty had a rash on her umbilical region, possibly from examination instruments. The article suggests a possible probing of Mrs. Hill's lymphatic system.

Biological Experiment

The article posits that UFO encounters might be part of a "continuing biological experiment." The Antonio-Villas-Boas case involved penile lesions and a rash. Herb Schirmer reported a spinal somatic nerve lesion after a UFO pilot applied a cylinder to his neck, experiencing dehydration and nightmares. Travis Walton's case also noted similar dehydration symptoms.

Contamination Threat

The article discusses the threat of contamination between species, suggesting that before open contact, biological compatibility tests are necessary. It proposes that a symbiotic relationship may already exist and that UFO encounters are signs of this consummation.

Master Plan Unfolding

Witnesses' symptoms are seen as side-effects of a highly sophisticated experiment, possibly testing human biological systems for vulnerabilities, with a long-range plan for co-existence.

Flying Cigar Prompts Soviets to Probe UFOs

A news clipping from The Toronto Star (May 30, 1984) reports that the Soviet Union has formed a commission to investigate UFOs following an incident involving a "flying cigar" near Gorky. The commission is headed by former cosmonaut Pavel Popovich.

'Monster UFO' Shakes Farmer

Another clipping, from The Toronto Sun, details an incident in Brunkild, Manitoba, where farmer Karl Wroblewsky found a circle of holes and compressed grass, suggesting a "monster UFO" sighting. Howard Bennett, a UFO researcher, noted numerous UFO sightings in the area 15 years prior.

Nine NLOs Reported in Toronto

This section details multiple UFO sightings reported in Toronto. On May 27, 1978, R.C. and 37 others observed an unusual light over Lake Ontario. On July 12, 1978, R.C. reported seeing an oval white light moving in a spiral. On August 18, 1980, seven NLOs were seen, with some moving and others hovering.

UFOs and the Electronic Media

By Lawrence J. Fenwick, this article critiques the media's portrayal of UFOs. It discusses a Global TV series, "More Real People," which featured abduction cases, but allegedly sensationalized the attendees by linking them to Shipwreck Kelly's Bar. The article criticizes the inclusion of an irrelevant UFO report and the producers' focus on sensationalism over substantive discussion.

MUFON's African rep spoke at recent Toronto meeting

Mrs. Cynthia Hind, MUFON's representative from Zimbabwe, Africa, gave a speech at a CUFORN gathering. Her presentation consisted of incidents that occurred in her home country. The event was well-received by the approximately 50 attendees.

Recurring Themes and Editorial Stance

The CUFORN Bulletin consistently focuses on the physical and psychological impacts of UFO encounters, presenting numerous case studies and witness testimonies. There is a strong implication that UFO phenomena are not mere curiosities but represent a significant, potentially hazardous, biological and scientific issue. The publication appears critical of the mainstream medical and scientific establishments for their perceived apathy and reluctance to seriously investigate UFO-related effects. The articles suggest a pattern of extraterrestrial activity that may involve experimentation and a long-term plan for interaction with humanity. The bulletin also highlights the role of the media in shaping public perception of UFOs, often with a critical eye towards sensationalism and dismissal.

In Memoriam

The issue includes a brief memorial for Er. Pearl Muskat, mother of CUFORN Co-Director Joseph Muskat.

Next Issue Preview

A future article titled "Tribute to a Pioneer-Wileert S. Smith" by Harry Tokarz is announced.

This issue of the CUFORN Bulletin, dated July-August 1984, features a prominent advertisement for the book "CLEAR INTENT" by Lawrence Fawcett and Barry J. Greenwood. The cover boldly proclaims "THE GOVERNMENT COVERUP OF THE UFO EXPERIENCE" and poses the question, "What does the government know about UFOs and why won't it tell us?". The book is presented as an "EXCLUSIVE OFFER!!" available from the Fund for UFO Research.

"Clear Intent" Book Feature

The book "Clear Intent" is described as exposing the 'Cosmic Watergate' and featuring startling, never-before-published photographs. It asserts that U.S. Government files provide concrete evidence that UFOs are real and may pose a threat to national security. The book reportedly reveals information recorded by the CIA, FBI, and other agencies while monitoring these phenomena, including a specific incident in 1975 involving unknown craft at U.S. weapons bases.

Lawrence Fawcett is identified as a 20-year veteran UFO investigator and Vice President of Citizens Against UFO Secrecy. Barry J. Greenwood is described as a field investigator for the Mutual UFO Network and a prolific writer. The book is made available through a special arrangement with the publisher, Prentice-Hall, and can be obtained from the Fund for UFO Research in Mt. Rainier, Maryland, for a tax-deductible contribution of $25 or more.

The Fair-Witness Project

Page 2 of the bulletin introduces "THE FAIR-WITNESS PROJECT", a non-profit organization founded in July 1984. Its purpose is to investigate specific cases with highly unusual parameters. The project is headed by author/lecturer William L. Moore, known for co-authoring books like "The Philadelphia Experiment" and "The Roswell Incident". Other key figures include sculptor/scientist Evan Hayworth, nuclear physicist/author Stanton T. Friedman, and investigative researchers Kal Korff and Brad Sparks. The project also utilizes regional directors across the continental United States to coordinate investigations.

The Fair-Witness Project aims to address the lack of in-depth investigation into unusual events due to insufficient funds and a shortage of qualified, full-time professional investigators. The project seeks to present obtainable and verifiable facts to the public. Investigators, referred to as "Fair-Witnesses", are selected for their backgrounds in scientific and/or journalistic investigation. Each investigator is assigned a specific case chosen for its potential evidence richness or its status as a 'high-strange singularity'.

Fair-Witnesses submit monthly reports to the Board of Directors and provide updates to "FOCUS", the project's monthly newsletter, which is available to the public via subscription. The project also plans to release a tri-annual VCR (VHS) version of FOCUS, featuring highlights and on-the-spot interviews.

A Board of Advisors, composed of professionals from technical and scientific communities, will guide the project. Lectures by these advisors and guest speakers are also planned for the greater Los Angeles area.

Inquiries for the Fair-Witness Project should be addressed to their office at Suite 247, 4219 W. Olive St., Burbank, CA 91505, with a contact phone number of (818) 506-8365.

Recurring Themes and Editorial Stance

This issue strongly emphasizes government secrecy and cover-ups related to UFO phenomena, as highlighted by the promotion of the "Clear Intent" book. The introduction of the "Fair-Witness Project" suggests a commitment to rigorous, professional investigation of unexplained events, aligning with a stance that takes UFO reports seriously and seeks to uncover factual information, potentially challenging official narratives. The bulletin appears to support efforts to bring such information to light for the public.
