Ufology

Bratislav, of Croatian ancestry, is not a sci-fi fan, but he is intrigued by my anecdotes about Piers Anthony's Cluster stories about spy technology wherein the astral body can be extricated out of the physical body and transmigrated into a physical body of an extraterrestrial on some distant world, or about Arthur C. Clarke's novel Imperial Earth wherein the Makenzie (no "c") family become wealthy by mining methane on Saturn's moon Titan and propagate themselves generationally by cloning, the clone cloning himself. Bratislav's ufology is not like my sci-fi. Sci-fi is fictional dramatization, but Bratislav is looking for something factual in ufology. He is searching for a reality.

It is the 15th of February of 2015. On a more personal note, I am still able to make new friends, even that I know that I cannot keep them for long when they go away. Amongst others from the delivery gang of the pizzeria are two Russian-speaking friends, the Ukrainian Yaroslav and the Kazakh Adil. The ex-Soviet peoples are highly educated. I do miss talking to Bratislav, of Croatian ancestry, about ufology and starry philosophy. (Bratislav left the Lulu Island neighbourhood in May of 2014.) As long as people can still make friends is fine.

Bratislav's hobby is ufology. He doesn't think that this subject is pseudoscience, but a real search for truth.

Bratislav is a Croatian-derived friend of mine who is a ufologist. He has a UFO Kit on his smartphone. He has recommended me books like The Orion Regressions by Stan Romanek and The Terra Papers by Robert Morning Sky. His exotic books are of the paranormal, pseudoscience, and ufology genres. His brain is full of fascinating conspiracy theories and strange anecdotes. He has an interesting nonstandard view of astronomy. He thinks that outer space and the worlds beyond are teeming with life, whilst I conjecture that they are vast deserts wherein life, especially intelligent, is very rare. However, I am open-minded and could change my view if needed.

I'm an expert in my field Ufology, yes, it's all real Ancient aliens, it's all true I'm an expert just like you

Seventies UFO fans also referred to “close encounters,” including the consciousness-raising “close encounter of the third kind,” in which humans and aliens meet. But UFOlogy has gone through a radical change, and in the Nineties the terms of the past are largely obsolete. During the past decade, for instance, literally thousands of people have come forward to say they’ve been kidnapped, or “abducted,” by short, large-headed, thin-lipped entities with saucer eyes.

If you have wondered why the government has never come clean on the subject of flying saucers, maybe you should consider why we never take the trouble to brief cows on the reason for their existence. I can guess at least one question you might have by this point: “How extreme can this stuff get before someone decides enough’s enough?” But in UFOlogy, the sky’s the limit.

There is no shame in acknowledging that science is unsuited to UFO research, since, as Bauer argued, UFOlogy is a field where definitive answers are unlikely to be found.

Hendry, who retired from “UFOlogy” shortly after his book’s publication and has never returned, discovered there are many, many trigger mechanisms for UFO reports besides bright planets, fireballs, reentering space debris, and the moon.

When the cabbie found the place I was reminded of the warlock hangout in Bell, Book, and Candle, only this one was devoted to “UFOlogy.” A cardboard little green man with an “LGM” monogrammed spacesuit was propped against the window where a Coors Light neon glowed.
