I work at UCLA. Also, I am a human rights advocate and lead the appeal to stop covert research in America (this came out of my tenure as Staff Liasion for the Human Subjects Protection Committee - 1989 to 1993, I burned out after 4 years). The response was that UCLA's Institutional Review Board now requires signed Informed Consent even from subjects involved in covert/black research. Sorry, I couldn't do the same country-wide. I have not stopped, and Jeff Rense considers me his in-house expert on covert research involving human subjects.

I still get mail asking for information or help. Derrel Sims, Helmut Lammer, etc., etc. refer some of their cases to me. Usually, I am behind the scenes. At this moment, laying on my desk are EM photos from Dr. Roger Leir waiting to be scrutinized. I have expanded my field of interest after reading the 1997 IPELS (available through the UCLA's LAPD - LAser Pulsed Driver - website) and the Air Force University document called "2025". In 1991/92, I was asked by Don Schmitt (co-author with Kevin Randall of The Crash at Roswell) to do surface surveys of the "Roswell Crash" site. That did not work out, but I went to New Mexico and did my own research. Somewhere, that paper is on-line or available through the magazine "The Excluded Middle" published by Gregg Bishop.

I have been on Jeff Rense radio program, "Sightings" (12/04/97 - it could still be available in Jeff's archived section). I have no idea how I got on this list, but I have been sharing background scientific information with Bruce Cornet and Kent Steadman for the purposes of explaining anomal aircraft and weather. Please see Kent Steadman's website Orbit, and locate the section where Kent posted my critiques of the IPELS papers. If you have specific questions, as to my employment, please see the UCLA website for my job title and name of department.

My salary level will be implied by the job title - as you will see, California state employees are not paid very much. None of the information I have accessed is closed to the public, one just needs to be resourceful and know how and where to look. I am called a "super hawk" meaning I can find data and remember it and integrate it with other information.

Here follows my statement:

Firstly, several years ago because of certain events taking place in my life (and my daughter's) - events I referred to as "experiences" - I began a search for answers to internal questions I was asking myself. I was living in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, and found an article in one of those throw away suburban newspapers. The article was about the "Pyramid on Mars", and quoted someone named "Don Schmitt." I drove to the building where the publisher was located and tracked down the reporter of the article; got Schmitt's telephone number and called him. He arrived with Rich Heiden for an interview one day.

The contact with these two men put me in touch with Dr. Hynek. Now thinking back on my conversations with these three gentlemen from CUFOs, and remembering their skepticism at my tale of "abduction", I decided to set-up a hypothesis centering around what I called a "highly strange event" and to test it. It took me many years of searching the so-called ufology literature and scientific journals testing the validity of the central hypothesis of just what terms to ascribe to the highly strange event called "alien abduction."

The preponderance of evidence, which includes studies/readings in how the mind/memory works, suggests that there is no such an event as "alien" abduction. However, there is reams of papers describing human technology which creates events that for all practical purposes can take any "form" the controller/operator of the technology wants it to take. During my searching, I have been careful to follow my own dictum: "the mind abhors a vacuum, and will create whatever it needs to fill the vacuum." It is necessary to constantly test the supposition of a hypothesis. Ask any scientist.

In all my reading of ufology I have found no clearly laid-out hypothesis; only unwritten "laws" of how ufology will and will not be done, and what will and will not be stated. The search for the truth is not done utilizing critical analysis.
