Nothin' to see here
I seem to be going a bit crazy with posting new threads lately. I apologise for that -- this will be the last one, I promise.
The Aus Outback has been a source of UFO stories for a long time. Theres nothing new about the concept of UFOs in the outback. But they probably dont get anywhere near as much exposure as they should due to the remoteness of outback for one... and on top of that Australia itself is relatively remote compared to the rest of the world.
There is the Internet of course, but the net is not some magic device that instantly delivers info to interested people. Its easy to miss extremely interesting and credible stuff on the Internet.
This morning I happened to catch the 9am morning show here on Channel 10, and their first segment was an interview with a guy named Alan Ferguson, who is a resident of a town called Acacia Hills near Darwin. Like every other f***ing news source in the western world, Channel 10 are doing stuff like this now because of the recent UK release, and because they forget that about this time last year they went through the whole process again - usually showing the same footage, interviewing the same people, and making the same stupid friggen remarks.
Anyway, I digress. So my first instinct was to turn it off as stories like this on main stream networks always frustrate me and literally put me in a bad mood. However I decided to watch it, and fortunately too, because if this guy isnt seeing some extremely weird shit, REGULARLY, out there in the desert, then Im not sitting here typing this right now.
He is without a doubt seeing UFOs. He describes seeing objects of all different shapes - triangles, discs and others. He extremely excitedly describes how they "wobble" as they hover. (hmm where have we heard that before?). He also describes how they zip off so fast its just a blur.
He has even noticed that they seem to appear more often when the nearby US top secret research base 'Pine Gap' are doing exercises.
Dude has been motivated to create a website and even does a weekly radio show on UFOs. I plan to check that out next week.
His site is UFO TERRITORY
Ill just put this out there... he does seem to have a bit of an agenda trying to sell the outback as a "UFO hotspot" in an effort to generate tourism for the area. Thats pretty much his only mark in the 'Uh-oh' column. However I genuinely believe that the whole tourism thing is the egg to his UFO sightings chicken. I get the sense that rather than trying to cash in a rumours of UFOs, he genuinely wants to communicate to the world that there is some really interesting bizarre stuff going on out there.
I think he would make an AWESOME guest on the Paracast. His Aussie outback persona and accent would provide comedic relief, and I think his information if valuable enough that people should hear it.
I just think that there is every chance that the desert in the Aus outback, and specifically the area around Pine Gap could be just as interesting a place as the whole Nevada/Area 51 area. Maybe even more so due to the extreme remoteness and that basically no one pays any attention to the base out there. In stark contrast to the situation with Area 51.
