OVNI - 1992 10 - October

Magazine Overview

This issue of OVNI, a newsletter from the Phenomenon Research Association (PRA), dated October 1992, focuses on recent developments in UFO research and related phenomena. The cover features various UFO illustrations and the title 'OVNI' with the date. The newsletter includes reports from the Leeds Conference, discussions on alien abductions, crop circles, and alleged government disinformation campaigns.

Leeds Conference Special

The annual Quest Conference took place on September 26th in Leeds. The event was well-attended and featured several speakers. Bob Dean, an American speaker, discussed the activity of NATO HQ in investigating UFOs during the early sixties. Tony Dodd presented details from a report by Budd Hopkins concerning fourteen witnesses who observed a UFO hovering outside a US apartment building, from which three aliens floated down a blue light and later reappeared with a woman, who was also floating.

An editor's note references Dr. David M. Jacobs' observation that it was surprising no one had reported seeing aliens float through windows with humans, given the prevalence of abductions where individuals are 'floated' through such barriers.

Tony Dodd further elaborated on the incident, explaining that security guards witnessed the UFO while escorting an important person. The car's electrics cut out, and they saw the blue light transferring aliens and the woman. The woman was later interviewed and regressed by Budd Hopkins, revealing she was taken aboard the craft for examination.

Speakers and Presentations

Graham W. Birdsall gave a talk on the latest advances in aircraft technology. Colin Andrews, who traveled from the USA, presented on Crop Circles, their meaning, and interpretations. He issued a warning about impending efforts to discredit the subject, citing a forthcoming 'Equinox' TV program as an example of activity within the 'intelligence' fraternity aimed at creating confusion.

Andrews emphasized the direct association between UFO phenomena and his research, stating that "the lid is off" and much more is yet to be revealed. He highlighted the growing fear for security among researchers like Linda Howe, John Mack, and Dr. Stephen Greer, and stressed the need for public support to present the facts.

Andrews also spoke about changing attitudes and the potential for humanity to enter a "higher plane" of existence, warning that religious groups and politicians might become alarmed. He predicted that an announcement of alien presence could occur within months.

He recounted an event on July 27th in the Wiltshire Downs, where he and Dr. Greer witnessed extraordinary events, including airborne components interacting with researchers. He stated this proved intelligence was at work. Andrews showed slides of Corn Circles and described glowing balls of light seen at night in the Wiltshire area that behaved intelligently and responded to light signals, leading to a pictogram found in a wheat field the next morning. This was corroborated by PRA member Eddie Sherwood.

Photographs from the conference show Colin Andrews and Omar Fowler, and Les Truman with Ken Potts.

Armen Victorian gave a talk that included tape recordings of telephone conversations. One tape featured a discussion about a "dis-information" program related to Crop Circles, with Victorian stating that the individuals behind it had not yet been identified but included well-known public figures involved in the 'Equinox' TV program.

Another tape recording involved a conversation where payment for Victorian's services was discussed in vague but generous terms. Victorian also discussed the "Majestic 12" project and the questionable authenticity of circulated documents, detailing how code letters on a document did not match those used by President Eisenhower's administration.

A taped conversation with an American voice confirmed a UFO crash forty miles outside Colorado Springs, with a video showing the craft, military, and dead occupants. The craft was described as triangular, 300' long, and ripped open. The occupants were identified as "Grays", all deceased.

An editor's note expressed difficulty in commenting on the recordings due to the involvement of individuals in "grey areas" and the presence of devious people in undercover activities related to Crop Circles and UFOs.

Bob Dean Speaks Out

Bob Dean, a former professional soldier with 27 years in the US Army, shared his experiences. He spoke of being assigned to Supreme Headquarters Allied Powers Europe in 1963 with a "Cosmic" top-secret clearance. Dean described sightings in the 1950s and early 1960s of large metallic circular objects flying at high altitudes and speeds over Europe, originating from Soviet or Warsaw Pact areas, which nearly triggered World War III.

He considers the UFO subject to be the major issue of our time, stating that Earth has been subjected to extensive surveys by several extraterrestrial civilizations with advanced technology. He believes a program is unfolding, involving genetic manipulation, which has been ongoing for a long time.

A full transcript of Bob Dean's talk was available from the editor.

Tale Enders

Pat Delgado, writing on October 12th, 1992, commented on Bob Dean's talk, describing it as "most interesting" and suggesting it represented "apparent official verification" of hard facts. Delgado questioned the channel through which this information was released, whether it was 'official' or 'spiritual'. He expressed belief in the credibility of Dean's words regarding aliens and their intentions, noting their intellectual superiority.

UFO Over Gran Canaria

Michael Newark reported observing a UFO on September 6th, 1992, at 12:30 PM over Playa Del Ingles, Gran Canaria. The object was triangle-shaped, hovered slowly, and flashed brightly when turned. It moved into a black cloud and disappeared. Newark regretted not having his binoculars.

The sighting was noted as similar to an object seen in the Gran Canaries on March 5th, 1979.

UFO Talk at Melbourne

Omar Fowler gave a talk on UFOs to fifty members of the "Melbourne Wednesday Group" on October 7th, which generated significant interest and an extended question time.

Next Meeting

A meeting was scheduled for October 29th at the Stanley Club, Stanley Common.

Busty Taylor

Busty Taylor, a crop circle photographer, was announced to give a slide talk on the 1992 crop circle scene. He had recently returned from a US lecture tour and was scheduled to speak in the UK before another US tour.

Recurring Themes and Editorial Stance

The recurring themes in this issue are UFO sightings, alien abductions, crop circles, and the potential for disclosure or increased activity related to these phenomena. There is a strong emphasis on research and investigation, with several prominent researchers and speakers featured. The editorial stance appears to be one of open inquiry into these subjects, while acknowledging the complexities and potential for disinformation within the field. The PRA positions itself as a source of information and a supporter of researchers attempting to uncover and present the truth about these phenomena.
