Today's headline is inspired by a very recent piece Nick Redfern wrote called `Feeding The UFO Phenomenon' - take a minute to digest it..... then return for my `digested cud'.
Yeah, I really didn't like the article in total as IMO by replaying selected aspects of the UFO phenomenon - and THEN Adding `theory' and `fiction' IMO - one can paint almost ANY picture of the UFO phenomena..... I think I clearly show that side on my other UFO blog Amazing UFO Stories And Strange UFO Videos .... indeed, my obsession with bringing you CURRENT `UFO' reports via MUFON and other sources - IMO, clearly is a superior manner to `analyze' the on-going phenomena and to have a clearer understanding what makes up those perceptions. As opposed to speculating that the anomalous that is being reported all the time in all type of circumstances involves evil.
It does a dis-service IMO to highlight the bedtime alien abduction phenomena, the `Space Brothers' and theories about a demonic presence on Earth - and mix all of that into somehow what the UFO phenomenon IS. Oh Please..... Hardly..... Is what I can say to such a posting. (Nick and I have had our back and forth over his Final Events book before in these very pages.)
Hell, I assure readers that I could easily make the case that OUR REALITY is a ...................................................................................................... oh, I'm sorry to report that the rest of this GREAT POST (you see about 50%) is only seen by my MailChimp List Subscribers ..... you can get on the PRIVATE UDCC listing today within the next minute. More private blogging to come to those on the listing soon. UDCC will be largely PRIVATE in 2014.

Then, this RRR group post came to my attention - which as usual at RRR, is based on BS IMO. Here it's Contention is that Social Media Is Killing UFO's attacking all the `historical' UFO folks (believers in the old UFOlogy) with the premise that every famous UFO account was done for fame and glory......... Oh really? And, that reports are DOWN (oh, really?) and UFO's won't even be touched by the young demographic - seems to defy the report that Canada's reports doubled in 2012.
So, I'm here to give MY OPINION about the RRR take - what BS......... BS........ BS...... about the only common sense I read was Duensing trying his best to bring up the Bigelow connection to UFOlogy's narrative. Which got ignored.

Focusing on giving you a longer in-depth read today so up next is someones UFO Experience - UDCC as you know, brings citizen reports of UFOs:

It's From Reddit
I've only shared this story with my family and figured it was time to share my life changing experience with all of you. 12 years ago when I was 18, I was driving along the back roads of Evington, VA around 10:30 pm with my best friend from high school. No drugs or alcohol had been consumed (you should know we both had completely clear heads). I was driving around 45 mph and came across a large open field to my right hand side. We both turned our heads as we noticed a bright green and red light in the field. I slowed down to a crawl at 5 mph and tried to wrap my head around what I was witnessing. It was a large craft with a dome shape top and had blades on the bottom like a snowmobile. I remember the blades very vividly. They were made of a reflective material and stretched from the front to the back. The dome of the ship was made of a different material that wasn't reflective (from what I could tell). The craft was roughly 150 yards away and around the length of a school bus. It was tough to get a really good look at it because the lights started out a bit dim and grew more intense the longer we were there.
After stopping the car for a few moments, the craft began to lift off. The way it took off defies all logical explanation. It went up very slowly about 30 feet off the ground and then flew off at a 45 degree angle at light speed. In a matter of a couple seconds it shot into the night sky. It made absolutely no noise whatsoever (we had both the front windows rolled down).
This whole encounter lasted about 30 seconds. I can only describe what I felt as pure shock. I've never felt the sort of "rush" that I felt that night ever again. I guess my brain was trying to process what I saw. My friend never spoke a word while this was going on. We looked at each other briefly when I first slowed down but we were both in absolute shock. I drove home that night after dropping him off and ran home to tell my parents. I hesitated at first to tell them because it's incredibly hard to believe if you had not been there. I felt the strangest feeling the rest of the night and had a very hard time falling asleep.
My friend and I only spoke about it once or twice then he ended up moving away to go to college. I didn't see him again until 2010 and we ended up talking about that night again over drinks. Our stories never changed. He remembered exactly what I did. He even drew a picture of it on a napkin and everything was exactly as I remembered. (The rest of the account at the link)

And, here's an account from SightingsReport.Com
It's A Bird! It's A Plane! It's A Drone?
September 04, 2013 - Posted by philabustah to Personal UFO Experiences
There I was, just a smuck throwing a ball against the wall behind a BJ's Wholesale in a shopping mall behind my apartment complex. Swatting at those damned 'squeets' biting at me, I happen to be looking upward. I saw a rather large craft floating like a blimp above. But it wasn't a blimp. Blimps make noise and have and obvious shape. The shape of this thing, though oval, was hard to distinguish because of two very bright lights coming off of it. There were 2 planes in the background, both faster and leaving vapor trails. A guy was coming to work at BJ's and I stopped him as he was coming from his car. I asked him what he thought the thing was. He looks up and rather plainly says ' a drone.' Then he continues to stare for a while and says, more excitedly, 'You know what? I don't know what that is!' So we both watch this thing go slowly over the entire shopping center. No one seemed to be noticing the thing at all. In our day-to-day lives, we can't be bothered by things like flying saucers, I guess. I tried to confirm what I saw later with someone who also said it was a drone.
Firstly, what the flog do we need drones for? Is Al Quaeda springing a new plot to take over BJ's? I'm sure that there's someone somewhere who can give a completely-baked farce of an excuse. It rather is troublesome that our lovely everyday citizens don't view that as disconcerting. How long before little phantasm balls follow us to the washroom?
Secondly, can anyone comment on drones to describe the nature of these beasts that we're not supposed to notice? Are they now designed to look like alien craft so we can discount everyone's sightings?
======================================================================
Seems this citizen above is just figuring out what UDCC has been saying for sometime about the drone phenomena's side purpose to TPTB.
