1 Great book. Art Bell partook in some big time #UFO-tainment (Ed Dames was his ratings king) but he was so good at what he did, you didn’t realize it. One of the best interviewers I’ve ever heard and always asked the questions you were thinking.
2 I communicated w/Art on FB & messenger & we talked about 2012 (I wanted him as my host for a 2012 TV show I never did. He was open 2 the idea), Trump (Art really liked him) & I brought up Dames & the dangers of, “I interview the guest & my audience decides if they’re credible.”
3 I wasn’t a fan of that bc Art would prop up & praise Dames in his intro. and make him sound more credible than he was. In reality, after training in NYC, Ingo recommended Dames NOT be a remote viewer bc his imagination got in the way. So Dames was just a monitor in the program
4 and NOT a remote viewer. But if you listened to Art’s intro. to any Dames interview, you didn’t know that. Major Dames, as Art would refer to him, would make crazy doom prediction after crazy doom prediction. That’s why he was known as Dr. Doom. And none of the predictions
5 would ever come to pass. He would tell the audience that his brand of RVing was 100% accurate. Bullshit. I was writing/editing my newsletter at the time (1997?) and one of Dames’ predictions featured a planet-wide cataclysm. I think it was Hale Bopp, plant pathogen related.
6 Two of my newsletter readers (a married couple) wrote me and told me they were seeking safe haven in a remote area bc of that Dames’ prediction. I tried to tell them they shouldn’t trust in Dames but they had already made up their minds. I told all of this to Art but he never
7 replied. This is just one reason why I’m not a fan of UFO-tainment. Not only can it be dangerous but IMO, it cheapens the subject matter. Art had access to three great RVrs in McMoneagle, Buchanan & Smith (he interviewed them once) but kept going back to Dames bc of…ratings.
8 Daz - @remoteviewed (a fantastic RVr), do you have opinions on Dames? I can go on and on about him and my quest back then to show everybody that he shouldn’t be a voice to listen to in the world of RV. Also, if you have time, tell me if I got anything wrong.

1 Lue (LE) on the @coasttocoastam with @g_knapp.

LE: Oct. 2017 & coming out of the shadows on that stage with TTSA: With his previous job, he was used to having enemies & being anonymous. He wasn't used to using his name.
2 LE: Lots of people came before us with these type of claims about UFOs, JFK, etc. so I don't take it personally that media didn't take it seriously until the NYT ran their article. This field has a lot of interesting characters so you need to figure out who is who.
3 LE: Pentagon full of good people but when there are pockets of people who are jaded & even corrupts. When I went public, people in my chain of command were pissed off. How come I wasn't briefed? Why were you briefing Sec. of Defense staff & WH liaison & not two-star equivalent

1 #ufo Ask & u shall receive!

From, "The Book of the Damned" by Charles Fort.

I even went back a little.

1 If 2019 West Coast events & other unexplained incursions from "drones" are actually #ufos, it makes many of us think (as Eric Davis said) the phenomenon dictates disclosure. Is it trying to force us into revealing their presence? If so, it could be a mixed bag of good/bad.
2 Are we facing some near-future calamity that will need us to get our act together quickly in order for us to deal with it? Bad. Are "they" trying 2 wake us up? Good. Are "they" trying to alert us that we're also dealing w/some other negative intelligence that's taking advantage
3 of us? Bad. All speculation. Whatever it is, if it's trying to get us to evolve in some way, that could be good. Or, it could be the Vallee control system that's kicking in. If it's "automated" or dictated by certain social conditions that we've reached, that could be bad.

1 #ufo Was referencing Lue's comments earlier today on this

Lue: "Not a single one of these have been shot down, not a single one of these have ever been recovered from the ocean, not a single one of them has had a mechanical issue, not a single one has been able 2B intercepted.
2 Dolan: "It seems insane."

LE: "And by the way, we have helicopters on these ships and not a single one has been caught by one of our helicopters or aircraft. You know, okaaaay. But you really got to do a lot of mental gymnastics then, to prove to me that that is some sort of
3 LE: "drone technology. I’m not saying it’s impossible. What I’m simply saying is you’ve got to build a case then to prove that. Because at this point, that’s a greater feat than saying it’s a UAP. Really. Because at that point, it’s, “Okay, well, we’re really talking about

1 Decent VF article from 12/22/17 that many may have missed.

"For Times editors, the primary considerations that led to the A1 publication of 'Glowing Auras and Black Money’: The Pentagon’s Mysterious U.F.O. Program' were more earthly in nature. 'The reason this was a story was
2 "'because the Pentagon acknowledged it had spent $22 million of taxpayer money to investigate U.F.O.s from 2007 to 2012 - & because Harry Reid had pushed for the funding, and was proud of it, on the record,' Washington Bureau Chief Elisabeth Bumiller, who oversaw the reporting,
3 "told me. 'We talked about it the way we talk about all stories - it had to be airtight.' Bumiller also noted that 'the story did not have a huge presence on A1 in print—it had only a small run on the front. On the Web, it had great play, in part because the video was so
