"Silent Invasion" and Ellen Crystall

This is what gets me.....the schizophrenic contrast, tug of war that's going on in society.  UFOs were openly doing their thing, so many people were seeing them, it was a known fact for those areas, yet it was still being (lamely) covered up or ignored, and the population as a whole is in denial about it all.  What's going on here?  And why weren't more people doing what Ellen did?   (Rhetorical question, of course.)  Taking photos, chasing UFOs, documenting and shouting from the rooftops about it?  I mean, what's wrong with people you know that they're just...looking the other way, then allowing the mainstream world to perpetuate the idea that this subject is complete fiction, or just "airplanes" ?  Imagine if hundreds of others had done exactly what Ellen did.  Contacted the NY Times.  Taken photos, and logged docmentation, collected physical evidence, and so on.  Instead we have all these random people in society, all spread out coming forward with their various tales, an unorganized situation that winds up being discredited by the skeptics.   But if an entire region came forward, together, in soladarity....hundreds and hundreds of people, with hard evidence, refusing to "just drop it" or "let it go".....then what?

I don't know.  Can only imagine.  So there are signs in Mexico that warn about low flying saucers...and yet most of society still thinks "Oh, this stuff aint real!"   What a trip.

Another thing worth noting is that during the couple of times when media reporters showed up in Pine Bush to have Ellen show them the fields and all the UFOs, it would coincidentally be bad weather.  Cloudy, or storming or whatever.   So the reporters would walk away empty handed with nothing to report.  How convenient!   My conclusion is that "something" deliberately did that and manipulated the weather.   They don't care about being openly viewed by the locals because they know that the locals aren't even going to try to do anything about it.  But when the reporters show up.......well then it's another story.  Bring on the clouds and rain and have a no-show.

I still have reservations about the idea of any formal announcement and unveiling of sorts about aliens the way many believe there will be.  And after reading this book, even more so.  They're already here, doing their thing, and don't seem interested in making anything formal or openly announced.  There's a lot of talk about how things are being manipulated as a staged set up so that the population will accept the Grays or whoever as our saviors when "the big unveiling!" happens, but I just don't see this ever happening.   I could be wrong, but I'm not feeling it.   Either it won't happen, or I just won't be here (as in dead) when it does, which is why I can't feel it happening within my lifetime/realm of experiences.   Who knows.

It just makes no sense to me.  None.   I don't get that mentality at all.  That sounds to me like some heavy duty programming going on, which often is the case in this society.   And this isn't directed to you personally treehugger, because I know that you're open and very much aware and in tune with these subjects, so it's a commentary on society as a whole.   But something extraordinary is happening.....and people keep their mouths shut??   What's that??   It's the opposite of how humans used to be.   And it's that exact mentality that has enabled much of what we see going on in society right now.  Fear.  Looking the other way.  Pretend stuff isn't happening.  "kook" labels.  Meanwhile, our society is completely crazy, imo, and look why.  Decades and decades and decades of people looking down, away, keeping their mouths sealed and nose to the grindstone.  I get angry thinking about it, and what years and years worth of religious/authoritarian fear-based conditioning has done to humans.   The natural inclination for something new and unusual should be to explore and investigate, the "tribe" gathering around and discussing it, analyzing it.  But now we've been manipulated to keep quiet, be scared of being labeled as crazy, and just ignore it??   ahh, makes NO SENSE.   I was raised differently, I'm lucky!    Seriously.  My parents acted like the idea of UFOs, psychic powers and all the paranormal was the most normal thing in the world.   And that's how it should be, because this stuff is real, and it's a regular part of day to day life to some extent for most (real) people.

Anyway, this wasn't intended to be the focal point of this thread, it's about the book in general and the other things I mentioned, so I don't want to sidetrack too much onto bashing the control mechanisms that have distorted humans over the past 2,000 years.  Because I could rant for hours about it, seriously.     All I can say is that it's an interesting and worthwhile read for anybody who's interested in the alien/UFO subject and digs first person eyewitness accounts that don't seem to be operating with a disinformation agenda.

The book has this to say (bolded words my own emphasis):

"I learned another startling fact about the location:  the Wallkill River, which runs through most of the area, is the only river in the continental United States to run north instead of south. The water table is abnormally high in the Pine Bush area." (page 120)

Another muy interesante factoid that emerged when Ellen was trying to figure out what the aliens' underground drilling in the middle of the night was all about:

"What could they have been doing, I asked myself.  I was sure they were drilling and had machinery operating.  Dale and Mark told me the aliens ere mining beryllium, zirconium, and titanium.

I pursued this clue via library research.   Amazingly, I learned that the three metals were not only rare but were found only in some small Asian countries and - I nearly flipped out at this fact - in Orange County, New York, exactly where I was pursuing the ships.  It is interesting to note that these metals are used in nuclear reactor plants." (page 119-120.)
