UFO
Continued from Page 1
I believe,' especially if they have
some kind of reputation to
keep, ' said Pagliaro. who has
never seen a l IFO
Despite their possible Iwliefs
or interests in UFOs. the people
sitting at the meeting looked like
a random sample of society
Middle-age men dressed in
flannels and working hoots con
ferred with each other in the
'third aisle, comparing notes In
the hat k sat many of the late
arrivers. mostly young men and
women not more than college
age Others looked like people
one sees at the grocery market,
no different than anyone else
The meeting’s speakers — a
consultant in the aerospace
industry and a woman with
pulled-up hair and round glass
es — flanked each end of the
front row The speakers' stories
wont the attraction of this meet
ing, as other speakers' stories
have been and will be in other
meetings
Pogliaro said another of the
utins of the group's meetings is
to "educate" those who are
interested in UFOs or believe
they have encountered one. He
said he isn't trying to fori e other
people to (relieve in UFOs, he is
just offering to educate those
y\ho want to knovs more.
"We don't try to go out and
prove." he said. "People ore
going to believe You have to
feel it's there in your heart, or
not."
rretleru ik Atzoton, ysho saiu
ho has been studying UFOs lor
25 years, is one of those who
believes One of the two fea
tured speakers at the meeting.
Alzofon outlined on a chalk
board the physics of how he
believes u typical UFO would
propel itself
"They are not psychic phe
nomena." he said "They are
real They must obey the law s of
the physical universe."
But the physics seemed to fly
over the heads of many in the
audience as fast as the 24.000
mph that Alzofon believes UFOs
can go Many pens and pencils
stay frozen over large notepads
Pagliaro admitted to getting lost
in it himself tint just as many
other people faithfully took
notes, asked direct questions
and nodded their heads at Alzo
fon *
Alzofon said bis theory of
using "quantum electrodynam
ics" could lead humans to build
ships similar to those of alien
UFOs, but governments are not
willing to make money ay ailahle
for such projei ts
In the past, witness ai i ounts
have a.ikI people have seen
UFOs on Karth surrounded by
aliens dressed in aluminum
clothing. That makes perfect
sense to Alzofon because he said
that type of clothing would be
needed for the aliens' change in
gravitational fields.
After more than an hour.
Alzofon was replaced at the
podium by a woman who
claimed to navi been abducted
by a UFO nearly a year ago
while camping in Gold Hill.
On
Saving she was lured out of
her camper-trailer by an
unknown, compelling force last
May. the woman has come to
believe that she was swallowed
into a UFO and examined. She
said she awoke the next morn
ing with bodily bruises, a metal
lic taste in her mouth and a
puffy face, vaguely remembering
that something strange had hap
pened to her the night before.
Since then, some of her mem
ories from that night have
returned. She recalls seeing
large faces with big eves that
night, and these same figures
probed her body She said she
believes the aliens were simply
examining tier for genetics and
biological research
"But that didn't make me feel
any better at that time,” she
said
Other experiences the woman
has had since that time am easi*
er to remember, she said Last
July, while camping near the
Grand Canyon in Arizona, the
same aliens spoke u her tele
pathicallv, she said A month
later, the woman and her hus
band both witnessed the essence
of a Native American woman in
their bedroom.
i lignum soia no nos never
seen n UFO ... that he can
remember lie said UFO experi
ences similar to the woman's
first one are common, in that
abductees are often “switched
off so they don’t remember the
experience the next day
Forgotten experiences similar
to these may trigger a person's
subconscious to learn more
about UFOs, he said.
Pagliaro didn't involve him
self in the subject until after
talking with people who
claimed to he abductees When
he met these people at.a Eugene
convention a year ago. he
(relieved they were telling the
truth.
“It was tin* kind of emotional
reaction they had when I asked
questions.” Pagliaro said "I
asked what was going on I
looked to see if they were jiving
me."
During the woman speaker's
presentation, the i rown of peo
ple smiled comfortingly and
appreciatively til stories of her
experieiu es She said oven c.er
tain family members doubted
her until she and her daughter
saw an unknown, glowing orb
that the woman sees frequently
in the Eugene sk\ during many
nights
Pagliaro said he (relieves sim
ilar events happen frequently in
the area, which is one of the rea
sons why he started the contact
group
“I feel that there are a lot of
things that are happening in the
local area that no one is talking
about." he said
