Dr. Jerrold Coe: Feb 6, 2021; Is it me?

Charlie Wiser of Three Dollar Kit has a good timeline of the Ariel school which makes it apparent to me that John Mack and Cynthia Hind did not use best practices interviewing the children, including interviewing them in groups and coaxing desired answers out of them, allowing the story to grow beyond an initial close encounter of the first kind (sighting of craft within 500 feet) to a third kind (beings sighted but not communicated with) and then a fifth kind (the communication the event is known for).

A good site in general: https://threedollarkit.weebly.com/ariel-school.html

Something about the Zimbabwe encounter that I've been thinking about is how different it is from Operation Prato or the US military sightings. If aliens wanted to make overt contact and pass on a warning message, why would they choose a school as the location?

One potential answer is that it was a rogue operation (with everything that implies for alien social structures), but the individual ayys who made contact didn't realize it was a school. They knew about earth and its problems but didn't have the details of our political structure or our geography, and didn't care about whatever deal had been made with earth's governments. So a bunch of their hippie types or dissenters were like "gently caress it, we need to warn these people," jacked a few Humvee birds, and chose a more or less random spot in unmonitored airspace near the Indian Ocean. Presumably they got chewed out for it because it hasn't repeated

One of my favorite UFO genres is "UFO tech breaks" and my read is that whatever they do for the camouflage failed and the "you're ruining the planet" song and dance is what they go with when they're spotted and didn't want to be.

Listened to tasting infinity on the way to my doctor's appointment a few days ago. It is about two hours either way via bus so i needed some way to chill.

I can say at first it mostly altered my color perception. I am only speaking to color perception specifically and nothing else, but it was like that "sharpness" i sometimes get on a lsd come-up before poo poo gets wacky. Like stuff was hi-def, and i felt an emotional connection to my surroundings

Then as i began to properly enter a trance state, i ended up seeing an orb (!!!) Surrounded by squares that were lazily rotating on a center axis

How hard did you ponder said orb? This is important

I went "oh poo poo that's an orb and way more vivid than my usual CEV capabilities without extensive meditation or drugs" and it was startling enough, i opened my eyes and it was gone

So, i pondered it hard enough it snapped me out of trance

That is weird. You'd think they'd just say it was a balloon if it was a balloon.

Just lol if our dumb loving politics caused the white house to not want to look weak so they shot down the first unidentified breach of our airspace since the balloon without knowing what it was and got a p'nutty joyriding.

I mean it's pretty easy to identify a balloon especially if it was low enough to be in commercial airspace. This is pretty weird.

A recovery effort on the debris will be made, Mr. Kirby said. He said the object was �roughly the size of a small car� � much smaller than the spy balloon that had a payload the size of multiple buses.

my feeling is that humans probably have a similar ability to feel these things that we either ignore/rationalize or that processing all of our thoughts and feelings via language deaden the ability to feel things like these over a lifetime. but that's just a dumb stab in the dark, party talk

It's infrasound. We can't hear it but they definitely can. Lots of animals use it to communicate over long distances, tigers have been observed using it to "stun" prey. It happens in the subterranean levels just before quakes and is enough for the animals to hear it and freak out

Bexause it was much smaller than the prior balloon and flying at a different altitude. �an unidentified object the size of a car is the best description I have of it� https://www.nytimes.com/2023/02/10/us/politics/unidentified-object-shot-down-alaska.html
