A recent publication by the Scientific Coalition for UAP Studies (SCU) has caught the attention of the European Sentinel News. Pascale covers the sources, beginning with Brad Sparks and previous SCU work; covers authors' backgrounds; their intended questions; their findings and constraints behind those results, and suggested further steps. The result Pascale outlines is a provisional look at "a small, resource-constrained reconnaissance presence"—a more-nuanced provisional finding than many might expect—as well as a change in the time of day of most noted surveillance cases. Acknowledging the limitations of this geographically-limited study, the authors recognize the value that "the creation of a curated and harmonized global UAP database, rich in metadata, standardized classifications, and precise timestamps" would have for a global assessment. The document is available at UAP Operational Presence, 1945-1975. We also note the SCU's annual meeting is fast approaching, being held this year in beautiful Toronto, Ontario, Canada, from July 24-26, featuring an international list of world-class speakers and virtual as well as in-person attendance opportunities. For further information see SCU Conference 2026. (WJM)

The crop circle season for 2026 is proving to be busy, with designs showing up in all the expected—and unexpected—places. In the first week of July alone, four new circles appeared in the UK. Interestingly, these crop designs showed some similarities to circles that appeared in previous years, begging the question: Were these earlier designs just trial runs, and if so, are they genuine messages or merely dedicated human antics? There has also been a Crop Formation Found in Switzerland, the first design to be discovered there since 2022, in a corn field in the country's wine-growing region. The farmer working those fields was none too thrilled with the phenomenon, however, given its massive size and the issue of curious members of the public trampling already flattened crops. (CM)

Billy Cox scans the current field of UFO play and wonders what's next. Though the UFO subject is much more generally acceptable than before December 2017, the journey thus far has been governmentally "awkward" and the future seems unclear right now. If we can't count on the Feds to "spill enough beans," private organizations like David Marler's breakthrough National UFO Historical Records Center, dedicated to get vast amounts of seriously-collected case files out to the world, offer credible promise we may at least discern "patterns" in the mass of data. In the meantime, Trump UFO Advisors Accuse Private Corporations of Operating Alien Craft-Retrieval Programs, per New York Post reporter Shane Galvin. More "awkward" events as comments by two ex-Presidents' (one being also current POTUS) ignite "D/disclosure" dumps, with an apparently-highly-confident Avi Loeb thinking that private organizations will "cough up" at least the knowledge "humans are not the only intelligent beings on Earth." NewsNation's Michael Ramsey and Hena Doba suggest an 'Invasion of Washington' UFO Tape May Surface as Lawmakers Push Release. In the embedded video, Marik von Rennenkampff, who participated in that June 25th Disclosure Foundation Forum, voices hopes for What Happens Next. That Disclosure Forum concluded with a signal moment: Whitley Strieber Given Rare Opportunity to Address Disclosure Forum as Experiencers Gain a Voice. Indeed, it recognized that "the human dimension of the mystery may deserve a place alongside scientific inquiry and governmental transparency." Perhaps all the foregoing, with its "fits and starts" well before but accelerated by the December 2017 revelations, will be superseded, for Elton Jones reports I Asked ChatGPT to Predict Humanity's First Contact With Aliens For World UFO Day — The Scenario Was Surprisingly Believable. Not as Close an Encounter as Spielberg most recently depicted, but an interesting projection. (WM)

"UFO history is as much about the evolution of narratives, institutions, and memory as it is about extraordinary claims." So says David Metcalfe in promoting a course series with Diana Pasulka, and including a fascinating recent talk on a facet of that history. David's initial monition about trusting too much in instrumented/technological records as evidence is then enlarged into how UFO (and other) unusual experiences are integrated, sometimes unknowingly, into previous practices and especially existing narratives. This is all in an effort to try to understand "new novelties." Trevor James Constable is mentioned early on here, and Charles Lear examines this further in UFOs as Sky Creatures. Lear references Jerome Clark's Spacemen, Demons and Conspiracies: The Evolution of UFO Hypotheses. "Jellyfish" UFOs seem to have more than recent popularity, too, and Alban Deschamps has a retrospective on a 1977 case in Unspeakable Secrets and Space Jellyfish. Deschamps shows how complicated the development of a new narrative can be. Enter Avi Loeb, who in On Mysterious Orbs and Fireballsseems supremely confident that sensors can be developed to solve some mysteries that currently (and David Metcalfe might aver always) may be just beyond explanation. Which brings us back to Metcalfe. In Roswell and the Cultural Architecture of Memory David presents Roswell as the quintessential example of how these UFO memes develop through time, informing the entire subject, and with application beyond merely our specific UFO focus.

A security guard at a cinema in Columbia recently encountered what he is calling a ghost child, and what we are calling evidence that not everyone is parent material. Filming the little crying being with his phone, he was careful not to investigate what was going on and in fact appeared to stay hidden throughout, less the distraught "ghost child" needed something from him, like assistance in tracking down his parents. In other ghostly/not ghostly news, this time from Oklahoma, "Ghost Footprints" Appearing in Snow? Perhaps. But watch the video—Is it a spook or the work of a snow devil (a spooky sounding name for a very natural occurrence)? (CM)

The present concentration on US-reported UFO cases requires perspective, and this case takes us way back before the WWII "foo fighters." And the two strange "fireball" objects that perplexed villagers—and in the main instance caused noteworthy physical effects to people as well as objects—are well-described and strange. With Willie Durand Urbina: To The North of Puerto Rico we go and back to a Bermuda Triangle incident in 1963 involving the aircraft carrier Wasp and its complementary vessels. One of those, a submarine followed—for four days—a USO (Unidentified Submerged Object), which was capable of traveling more than three times faster underwater and far deeper than humanly achievable then. The El Salvador: The January 1969 San Salvador Flyover gave local newspaper employees their own-witnessed headline article and was independently reported to the local newsroom. 1973: "I Saw a Flying Saucer" records a startling, multi-witnessed Sunday night event in the southern environs of Cuernavaca, Mexico. Much stranger still, from Argentina: A Shocking Teleportation Incident from 1981, including an abduction examination, might sound fashionably made-up, but the involved truck driver (and his rig!) both had independent support for their shared experience. (WM)

Interesting but frustrating articles about evaluating UFO-related cases, beginning with Guy P. Harrison who lists all the appropriate caveats regarding perception, persuasion, and proof. His sources seem to lack much consideration of the virtues of scientific instrumentation, especially when multiple non-human sensors are involved, and combining these with credible human testimony. Popular Mechanics fearlessly proclaims: Think You've Seen a UFO? Here's What to Do Next, According to an Expert. That expert, unsurprisingly, is Mick West, certainly one of the better analysts unwedded to UFO predispositions. Everything Mick says here is helpful in weeding out possibilities through helpful instrument-based means. We get a bit more-rounded and detailed look at Mick's vetting process in Tom Oldham's The Debunk Unc: Myth-Busting Mick West Is Hunting Down UFO Hoaxers. Then John Greenewald provides "a limited but useful look" into What Timothy Gallaudet's NOAA Emails Reveal About His Interest in UAPs. John explains what the material does, and does not, indicate on the matter. And British skeptic Dr. David Clarke reports an unearthing of former "secrets" in Condign Un-Redacted. But it was through someone else's British "Freedom of Information" success, and the subjects—the "Aurora/ASTRA/SENIOR CITIZEN" and "Black Manta" or "TR3A"—are no nearer to being proved real from this "find." (WM)

Recently a drone filming footage over Lake Champlain for a new children's movie captured something unexpected: a large, anomalous shape just under the surface of the water which some people are now saying is proof that Champ is real. The clip is available for viewing on RichardRossi Live. Moving very far south, was the Legendary Argentine Lake Monster Photographed? A witness standing on the shore of Lake Nahuel Huapi snapped the photo of what may be Nahuelito, the legendary lake monster of Argentina. As is typical of all such photos to date, the image was inconclusive, however it could certainly match the creature's profile given past encounters with something in the lake. (CM)

Thanks to a Komodo dragon and 3,155 stegodon (extinct elephant) bone fragments, "Hobbits"—the nickname given to Homo floresiensis individuals who occupied the Indonesian island of Flores (we now know) as long ago as 7000,000 years—have rather sunk down in the hominin family line. Ruth Schuster tells the remarkable story, the suppositions it demolished, and the very tentative possibilities for the 3.5-foot-tall Hobbits' "parentage" (predecessor) history. The Forgotten Castles of the Garamantes takes us to "the remote ruins of a lost Saharan empire" in the first 500 years of the Common Era. Giulio Aprin's lyrical prose and stunning photography leave one awestruck at what a people accomplished in the Libyan Desert so long ago. More mysteries: “We Don't Have Any Records So Far”: Archaeologists Discover Ancient 'Monolith' In Mexico Unlike Anything Previously Seen. Micah Hanks explains the find, dated between CE 200 and 600, and its unique features. Perhaps our next conundrum is even worse, as Scientists Analyzed the Bones of 'Skeleton Lake.' What They Found Made No Sense. Elizabeth Rayne says that between about 675 and 769 C.E. South Asians visited (and perished at) a Himalayan Mountain lake, followed about a millennium later by people from inland Crete, whose journeys also ended in Lake Roopkund. But, perhaps fittingly on the current occasion, one mystery has been solved, as New DNA Technology Leads to Identification of Revolutionary War Soldier: "A Gift to the Whole Country". "'[T]hree different types of DNA' and biographical data" enabled a team to bring John Pumphrey to light, his still-existing family some closure, and a very personal note to America's 250th Anniversary.

Tim Binnall grants us four recent "South of the Border" "unidentified" cases, the first being a snapshot taken in Emiliano Zapata, Morelos, Mexico, due south of Mexico City. It appears other areas nearby also saw the phenomenon, which attracted the usual variety of suggested explanations. A City Surveillance System Films Strange UFO in El Salvador. Tim notes the municipality of Antiguo Cuscatlán actually shared its footage on social media. In South America, a Curious UFO Mystifies Colombian Family. A Sunday family gathering at a restaurant in the Department of Antioquia in Colombia's northwest evoked wonder and thanks from the spectators. To the contrary, an Eerie UFO Spotted on Hillside in Brazil provided a farmer with first a very disturbing aural serenade and later on a scene that was both a "'beautiful and frightening' experience," as Tim quotes the witness. (WM)

"People are getting fed up" about the lack of UFO footage being disbursed by the Pentagon's PURSUE site without the raw analysis, says Cristina Gomez while summarizing a Christopher Sharp interview. And there's much more in Gomez' short video. Vanity Fair's Dan Adler gets a mention, so we head to his Aliens, Spaceships, and Trump, Oh My! The UFO Disclosure Movement Goes to Washington. Apparently no "UFO Believer" himself, Adler nonetheless offers a fair appraisal of the June 25th Disclosure Forum 2026 held in the Capitol Building's Kennedy Caucus Room. Jesse Michels provides extensive background with Congressman Reveals the Alien Brief That Changed the President's Life. The "missing scientists," plus Pentagon and private organizations working for the government and are compartmentalized, prohibiting real "transparency" on the UFO subject, appear early and often in this Eric Burlison interview. Burlison seemed to have a good grasp of the various topics. NewsNation's Steph Whiteside asks Does Elon Musk Know About Secret UFO Programs? Headed by the Ross Coulthart video we reviewed June 30th, Whiteside repeats Ross' contention Musk and probably other SpaceX personnel have been "briefed into the program," though "maybe not the whole thing." Perhaps that's why Musk's focus has shifted from Mars to the Moon. This echoes back to Cristina Gomez' podcast. Finally, Sentinel News contributor Alban Deschamps remarks on those Red Orbs in the American West in the June 12th PURSUE tranche. An interesting commentary, framed against the 1953 Robertson UFO Debunking Panel and Steven Spielberg's current film Disclosure Day. (WM)

The search for connection between seemingly random events, aka coincidences, is the focus of this article by George Musser. He suggests that our ability or desire to find patterns increases the likelihood of coincidences in our daily lives. More importantly, from a cultural perspective, since we all draw from a similar pool of experiences, "simultaneous invention seems almost inevitable." Next, we look at Outrageous Synchronicity: Journey to the Sacred, by Judith Crichton. Described as a "paranormal memoir," Outrageous Synchronicity recounts Crichton's experiences spanning nearly 70 years: coincidences, near death experiences, precognitions, and psychic readings—and how each has contributed to her spiritual reflection. Reviewer Sharon Rawlette described this book as a "testament to the power of surrendering to 'the greater will of the forces . . . that connect us to . . . a love beyond our comprehension . . . that marries past, present, and future in each precious, delicious, eternal, moment.'"

An online content creator in Malaysia gave his followers quite a scare and the authorities something to investigate when he disappeared in the middle of a live streamed ghost hunt. The so-called ghost hunter was found three days later in the restroom of the Skytrex Adventure Melaka tourist attraction, in such a weakened state he was taken to hospital. Suffice to say no ghosts were arrested and the original intentions of the vlogger have come under scrutiny. Another wannabe ghost hunter is under investigation in the US, where Washington Burglary Suspect Claims to be Ghost Hunter When Caught by Police. Keep in mind Ghost Hunter was his third choice of excuse, after "seeking higher education" and "thought the building was abandoned." At least we know "convincing liar" will never appear on his resume. (CM)

https://aeon.co/essays/who-are-the-fire-taming-healers-of-modern-france Who are the Fire-Tamers? “Fiction writer and essayist” Susanna Crossman writes rationally and at length about France’s traditional healers who have been consulted by “at least two-thirds of the French population.” Though Susan is steeped in “hard science,” she was drawn to researching healers known as the “Fire Tamers” after her daughter seemed to have been cured of “dozens of growths on her hands” due to treatment by a Breton practitioner, using only touch. And no less tantalizing is the possibility that Humans May Have Hidden Regenerative Powers, according to research at Texas A&M University. It’s long been known that some animals, notably Salamanders, can regrow amputated limbs, but Dr. Ken Muneoka and his team have found that fibroblast growth during healing is key to regeneration, which in humans “may be a dormant capability that normally remains inactive during healing.” Some of the doctor’s research “already has FDA approval for certain medical applications.” (LP)

Blake I. Collier is rather disappointed with the latest Spielberg movie. (Note: "spoilers" ahead.) And like the real name of the main female character, Blake is quite "Blunt" about it. It seems that Blake sees the film as an "uneven" split between a typical "contact thriller" and abductees coming to realize their common reality, and his argumentation sounds, well, ... sound. Collier quotes Meredith Spearman's “What to Expect When You’re Expecting Disclosure” from The Maze to Metanoia, where she insists that "“Disclosure is not going to arrive as a press conference." Miguel (Red Pill Junkie) Romero posts "[Warning: Spoilers Ahead]" at the beginning of Spielberg's Disclosure Day Shows Why UFO Disclosure is Ultimately Impossible (Review). "RPJ" is dissatisfied, too, by the movie, though he's not completely sure that his life-journey hasn't rendered it less likable than had he seen it when a much younger individual. Well, Bryan Sentes has something to say about Disclosure Day too in Irritability Is a Sign of Life, which takes RPJ to task on three ideas in an otherwise generally similar perspective on the film. (WM)

Yaniv Regev casts the PURSUE data dumps as elements of a calculated "transparency maximalism populism," which is generating confusion among the general public, energizing existing conspiracy and competing religious theories, and reinforcing general suspicion about what the Government isn't telling us. Newsweek's Joe Edwards says of Avi Loeb: Trump's UFO Adviser Says Files Are 'Detective Story' That Can Be Resolved. Edwards notes how Loeb, a controversial figure to head of the new Science Advisory Council, is among the scientific community; some ufologists question his relative lack of knowledge about UFOs. David Freeman suggests a knowledge of ufological history might help understand the significance of the Jellyfish UFO Encounter Reported By American Pilot Shot Down Over Iran. Freeman concludes "If the account reflects an advanced swarm system, it may represent a modern technological explanation for a shape that has appeared in aerial reports for more than 130 years." Another pilot's positive anomalous experience led to glory in Christopher Plain's “It Was The Most Incredible Thing I Ever Witnessed”: New Film Details World's First Private Astronauts—And a Life-Altering UAP Encounter. And a key whistleblower finally gets some vindication as UFO Skeptic Michael Shermer Apologizes to David Grusch. UFO-interested people are questioning this move of a hard skeptic now on Loeb's UAP Council. (WM)

A new psychedelic is being investigated, one which produces Lilliputian hallucinations, aka visions of little people. The host of this substance is a wild mushroom species known as Lanmaoa asiatica,otherwise known locally in southwestern China as jian shou qing, which when eaten undercooked can produce these strange experiences. Interestingly, it seems to bear no genetic resemblance to known mushrooms with psychoactive properties. You can now add that to the list of These Psychedelics Spark Visions of Elves, Gods, and Rebirth—And May Have Changed Human History Forever. While the experience may be intense and last up to 72 hours, to date no deaths connected with jian shou qing have been reported. Even ancient Egyptians were imbibing mugs of mushroom infusion for a myriad of beneficial effects and experiences. These psychedelics "don’t just shape the casual user’s mind, but the lives of entire groups and even societies, perhaps shaping human consciousness itself." (CM)

CUFOS Secretary George M. Eberhart has created a timeline of the UFO-related events that are appearing in PURSUE, the "Presidential Unsealing and Reporting System for UAP Encounters." This listing is a subset of the full UFO Timeline (“UFOs and Intelligence”) posted on the Center for UFO Studies website. Please consult that document's “Sources and Further Reading” section for identification of any sources that are only partially described here. For best results, open all links in a new tab or window. Links to PURSUE releases go to the first page of the document, so take note of the page number(s) given in the description. Readers here will note that this and the "parent" timeline (that being 1435 pages long as of June 27, 2026) are extensively provided with linked references to relevant resources as well as a very helpful summary of a particular event. George also wishes to note the contributions of Jeff Knox to these entries. And be sure to explore the rest of the CUFOS website for additional free information, including digitized articles, journals, and books. (WM)

What lies behind the current, possibly "pivotal" moment in UFO history? Ross Coulthart discerns a growing rift between people within the United States Government who've favored a "controlled" and perhaps incomplete disclosure since 2015 of what the government knows about UFOs, and those impatient for faster, fuller, and more complete frankness. Towards the end of this dialogue with Meagan Medick and online questions, Ross references a book by Nick Redfern, Final Events and the Secret Government Group on Demonic UFOs and the Afterlife (published by Anomalist Books). As Ross says, Nick's story goes back all the way back to the very strange Jack Parsons, one of the founders of the Jet Propulsion Laboratory and who dabbled in demons. Enter podcaster Jason Samosa, who's recently completed a three-part study of this matter and the group that occasionally called themselves the "Collins Elite." Aided by Jacques Vallée's Forbidden Science 6: Scattered Castles, The Journals of Jacques Vallee 2010-2019 (coincidentally also from Anomalist Books), Jason brings things completely up-to-date. Beginning with The Pentagon's Disturbing Demonic-UFO Theory – The Collins Elite Part 1, followed by The Religious Cults advising the President on UFOs, and concluding with Scripting the Apocalypse: The Secret Plan to Simulate a UFO Apocalypse, Samosa crafts an evolving coalition between the original group, Evangelical Christians, and certain Roman Catholics, those particularly associated with Fordham University (where Donald Trump studied economics for two years), that's meddling with the Present situation. It's an ambitious, disturbing, and interestingly-presented thesis, with perhaps much more than merely an "historical interest." (WM)

Various tales are recirculated in the Bigfoot community, but what never gets old is the story of Ron Morehead and the Sierra Sounds. Captured in 1971 while Morehead and Al Berry were camping in the Sierra mountains, the resultant recording was studied by retired Navy linguist Scott Nelson. This next article, Retired Navy Man Studies Bigfoot Sounds, explains how Nelson came to hear the recording and become involved in analyzing the sounds. You can hear them for yourself here: Sasquatch Sierra Sounds by Ron Morehead & Al Berry. Haunting, unsettling, and yet most certainly language. (CM)

A find of very old and very large hieroglyphic rock art inscriptions has an international team agog, as Christopher Plain explains. It also generated a series of scholarly interpretations about the symbols' significance. The Debrief Editor-in-Chief Micah Hanks reports a 2,700-Year-Old Assyrian Artifact Made From Odd Material Should Have Been “Impossible” To Craft With Ancient Tools, Archaeologists Say. Not only that, but where it was found and what it depicted add to the mystery and create some interesting speculations. Writing for Discover Wild Science, Sameen David rather discourages modern creative interpretations in Vimanas: Ancient Flying Machines or Misunderstood Mythology? "Ancient Astronauts" theorists won't be pleased on this score. Jason Colavito takes a swipe at a group of creationists while asking Did a Sixteenth Century Map Show Noah's Ark as the Durupinar Formation? At stake: whether the Ark has been located, and of course Jason thinks not. Jason earlier attacked another modern belief regarding an ancient subject in Tim Gallaudet Tells "The Free Press" That "Atlantis Is Not Just Real But Findable." On the other hand, David Freeman says The Dead Sea Scrolls Preserve Ancient Accounts of the Nephilim and The Book of Giants, and he notes other accounts worldwide of unearthing huge human remains. (WM)

Here's a sensible summary of what Richard Dolan believes is a "maturing of the UFO conversation" since the '90s, as it's moved from "Are UFOs Real?" to "What does/do the Government/s know?" Political ramifications include extracting information from private companies not subject to FOIA, truly protecting future whistleblowers, and amnesties for crimes committed. Questions still remain about The Phenomenon/a: origins, time on Earth, intentions...threat. NewsNation's Ross Coulthart in the US Capitol: The Disclosure Lawmakers canvasses some of the prime participants in that Forum, and NBC News' Gadi Schwartz—a participant himself—does some Catching up With Whistleblowers on Secret Government UFO Programs. Schwartz interviews the "Original Three" of 2017 who recount their experience leading to the Current Situation, whose nature remains "elusive" in Gadi's opinion. But Leslie Kean, Luis Elizondo, and Christopher Mellon see progress. Latest Push For UAP Disclosure Could Be 'Dead End' Plot: Researcher features Dr. Steven Greer's somewhat contrarian views on what's behind most of the "strange stuff" so far reported. However, Christopher Mellon notes that the similar "drone dilemma" issues need addressing through better UFO/UAP study, and Marik von Rennenkampff remarks Senate intentions to reintroduce stronger whistleblower protections into the next National Defense Authorization Act. But will the public believe a "disclosure" in some form? We return to Ross Coulthart and a recent discussion in The Impact of Disclosure: John Priestland, Dr. Martin Abbas on Psychology of Contact. Like the academic effort The Psychological Impact of UAP/NHI Disclosure whose findings were presented at Disclosure Forum 2026, the British Unhidden Foundation has been noodling upon this extremely important matter; see uNHIdden for the European organization and its white paper.

Jeffrey Mishlove interviews the neurologist Morris Freedman on how psychic phenomena might relate to brain function. Freedman argues that regions in the medial frontal lobes of the brain function as a filter on telepathy, clairvoyance, and mind-matter interaction. Freedman cites experiments where disrupting the frontal area repeatedly modestly increases apparent psychokinetic effects. The conversation with Mishlove sits at the edge of parapsychology and cognitive neuroscience, raising questions about self‑awareness, and whether consciousness might be confined to the brain or extends beyond it. In John Philip Bessor's Mysterious Electronic Voices, The Observer's Fate Files looks at a tape of Electronic Voice Phenomena made by John Philip Bessor, who is better known in Fortean circles for his hypothesis that UFOs may be some kind of space animals. In the 1980s, Bessor, it turns out, had the habit of obsessively taping mysterious voices on cassette. The piece presents Bessor’s own narrated compilation of EVPs, which range from the truly surprising— “This is Maiva Nye, 100 Network, honey”—to much more ambiguous snippets. Is it discarnate communication? Auditory pareidolia? Or broadcast artefacts perhaps? Whatever it is, Bessor seems incredibly laid back about it all. (JS)

Past possible UFO cases with considerable import—the phenomenon's apparent interest in battles—take us back as 76 BCE, thanks to Scott Corrales of The Institute of Hispanic Ufology. Fast forwarding to 1916 when mysterious airplanes were repeatedly reported over DuPont's powder works and other strategic industrial sites linked to the Allied war effort, notes Kevin J. Guhl in DuPont vs. the Phantom Airborne Saboteurs. The nicely-written and referenced narrative well evinces the danger and fear of pre-and-World War I munitions manufacturing. We "leap" to 1948 and The Boy Who Escaped a UFO with Help from Another Captive. A napping cow-herder in the Caucasus region of southern Russia was abducted by three silver-suited aliens and experienced one of the strangest and more grisly and involved experiences imaginable. Two other Russian accounts are also presented here (H/T Rich Reynolds). Oddly enough, a trio of humanoid-looking figures featured in two of the Russian stories and also in a pair of weird, independent October 1973 incidents in Argentina, as recounted in Fabio Zerpa: The Balvidares Case (1973). Similarities between the South American cases from consecutive days could not be attributed to "contagion" from the first experience. And Charles Lear takes us to 1976 and An Unusual Physical Trace Case From England. A possible abduction with real physiological evidence is summarily dismissed by sexist police and one doctor, but "investigated" by two MIBs, leaving the witness a victim of both humans and ... what?
