With this many wittnesses I would be hard put to beleive a machine.The lie detecter test is based on the conscious mind.I beleive the conscious mind will do every thing it can to denie such incidents occured and put this whole thought as far back and deep in the mind as possible because of the truma involved .Not untypical with child abuse for the victum to put abuse out of reach to the conscious mind having no desire to rexperience such a thing.This is anolamous truma .Untill the truma is defined and determined which in this case is obvious. Fact is Abduction case Motives leave little to be desired.The impact calls one to question the victum’s own mental personal status.There is more redicule and harassment(and even death threats) than fame and fortuine involved in stories victums tell of abduction.The lie detecter test is based on the conscious mind.Unacceptable truths may be so deepely recessed that they are not accesable to the conscious mind.Thus in a conscious mind we may be more likely to tell only a truth that we are conscious of.This is a built in self preservation survival mechinisum kicking in to prevent mental and physical states of sever shock.For as long as i can remenber, we have been told by thoes who claim to be authorities, that ufo’s and aliens do not exist.authorities demanded that this did not exist and they have created an illusion or smoke screen for the masses which is beginning to lift.I have heard the truth would set you free.How deep into the rabbit hole can we go before our comfortable made up realities start to shatter?

Living in Texas I have heard and read about the UFO wave going on around here, but I this is the first I’ve heard about the Pennsylvania sightings. Its interestesting how they seem to come in waves. I’ve recently read about the Hudson Valley sightings and the number of witnesses and the quality of the reports were amazing.

Sure,particularly the british wave is one of the most significant event in 2008.We are a fraternity of searchers (la Fraternité des Porteurs du Futur) in Québec,here personnally I seen a UFO over L’Assomption (a little city north in Montreal,Qc,Canada) and I seen about 50 lights in V alignment,like in Seattle,some years before.The UFO have over a mile in size and plane toward the south (South shore of Montreal, maybe Longueuil).
In the name of our fraternity we hope for you a long life and happiness,M.Boot!
