Part Five: Trickster Revealed?
A compromise, between honesty and lies.
In the fifth installment of the
Trickster Tales intrepid
investigator
Caryn Anscomb
returns to the UFO/Alien enigma and
offers a glimpse of the man behind the shadows of the "Core
Story," a tale of contact with non-human intelligence.
Print this story
Most of what has been promulgated since the 1980s, relative
to UFOs and ET, is based on the alleged attempts of several
insider sources to effect a disclosure initiative. At the heart
of all the noise lies something known colloquially in UFO
circles as ‘The Core Story’.
Image taken from
CIA/DIA STAR GATE files
This Core Story has become the foundation stone of the
alleged Roswell Crash data, Robert Collins’ book: Exempt from
Disclosure, the 2005, Serpo releases, to a degree the Dan
Burisch story and much of the UFO folklore disseminated by
Richard Doty and friends. Strip away the accumulated crud and we
discover that the Core Story indicates that at some point, in
our not too distant past, some form of contact was made between
human military personnel and non-human intelligence.
The term ‘Core Story’ was allegedly invented in a Denny’s
Restaurant shop in the fall of 1982, during an exchange of
information between three people.
One of the three participants
at that meeting writes:
“It is the smallest set of elements for which the three of
us at that time agreed had scientifically sound evidence. Since
that time, we have briefed it dozens of times, and in the past
six months the term has been expropriated by Bob Collins and
Bill Ryan. Their version of Core Story bears little resemblance
to our original, but of course, anyone is welcome to misuse any
words, or even to exaggerate, or whatever they choose. Since I
know that Bill and Bob have been briefed, I take the "New Core
Story" to also be their considered judgment...and that is their
right. But I do not stand behind the current usage and content.”
I further asked: "Do you believe that some
form of contact has been made between humans and non-human
intelligence."
Our source replied:
“Yes I most assuredly do. And I do not
believe that contact has been metaphysical, or ethereal, or
n-dimensional in the context of the 'Core Story.' I am silent as
to those possibilities, also, however...but leave to the
metaphysicians to say if that ALSO had been a form of contact.
The 'contact' of which I speak I believe has been real in a
traditional sensory, physics, and time & space sense. In short,
what you may have seen in the original writings in 1987 of what
the three inventors of the 'Core Story' said the three of us, at
that time believed...We three have never changed our minds."
To add the next layer to the onion that has become the Core
Story, and keeping to the basics, there were allegedly three
separate meetings between USG employees and extraterrestrial
entities during the 1940s, 1980s and 1990s – the next somewhat
opaque layer suggests that the visitors brought with them a
disturbing message for humanity.
In the 1990s, Richard Doty contacted Dan Smith and discussed,
for the first time as far as Mr Smith can recall, a Core Story
and disturbing message. Though, as I understand it, Doty
didn’t elaborate any further on the message to Mr Smith apart
from stating that it was indeed, disturbing.
During a conversation with Mr Smith in the spring of 2006, I
asked him why he hadn’t gone directly to his DNI source to
request more information on this alleged message - my logic
being that if there truly were such a message it would either
confirm Mr Smith’s metaphysical explanations for the visitations
or negate them. He stated that it wasn’t necessary, although an
offer to meet with ET had been made, according to Smith.
In an email sent to a small list in the fall of 2005, Dan
Smith writes:
“Jack, et al,
I hesitate to interject a note of seriousness into all
this frivolity, but here it is:
It has been several years since I had some phone
conversations with Rick Doty, under the auspices of Ron,
concerning the alleged visitation, as a result of which I played
a non-trivial part in the early dissemination of the ‘core
story’ under the guise of Beltway Throat.
Since that time I have been concerned mainly with the
larger picture or the metanarrative, i.e. “Whence come we? What
are we? Whither do we go?” (Paul Gaugin).
What concerns me presently is the possible connection
between the core story and the metanarrative.
What I got from Rick was only a statement to the effect
that a principle or possibly primary reason for the subsequent
cover-up was the disturbing nature of the message brought to us
by the visitors.
I would appreciate any comments or educated speculation on
this possible linkage.”
I wrote to Doty asking for his opinion on Mr Smith’s
inferences.
Doty replied with:
“I don't associated [sic] my beliefs in others. I know the
truth and I know that some people make up things, such as
Smith's postulations. Of course, they are just postulations
created by Smith based on other people's stories or events. Once
you separate fact from fiction, you can see the "visitors" are
not here to hurt or endanger us. However, we have no control,
nor do the "visitors" of other's who visit our planet.”
In Nov 2005, Doty dropped me a line to make a small
admission. He wrote:
“Caryn:
One area I have not been truthful in is abductions. I know
more that [sic] I can say. Lets just leave it at that. Most
people don't want to hear what I know.”
Shiver me timbers! I did want to know and wrote straight back
asking for details. I was promised a file of information, some
seventeen months later and I’m still waiting. I also inquired
about the ‘disturbing message’. Doty simply advised that I
really wouldn’t want to hear it; it was after all
......disturbing!

There is a danger in these here parts of allowing oneself to
become too deeply sucked into other folk’s alternate realities.
These people are invariably ‘overnight’ experts on all things
Alien and Cosmically profound. Closer inspection reveals this
expertise is oft begged, borrowed and stolen from centuries old
observation and philosophical ponderings, with a new twist to
fit the current agenda, be that personal or otherwise.
I see a marked difference between Cultural Myth and
deliberate manipulation of information to serve an agenda.
Historically, Myth has served to process information and convey
information from one generation to the next. The elaborations or
Tall Tales ensure longevity, lest the next generation forget.
Myth shapes societies, propelling them ever forward, but the
ability to manipulate information, in the wrong hands, becomes a
weapon against society and quickly becomes the antitheses of
constructive Cultural Myth.
Towards the end of the Second World War we entered a new age,
as one of my professional colleagues succinctly puts it. The
‘Age of Energy’ gave way to the ‘Age of Information’ as a means
to manipulate people.
During a recent debate with Gary Bekkum,
in which we were discussing some of the
Trickster Tales themes, I presented the notion that we might
be witnessing an ‘apparent’ ability for other people’s alternate
realities to physically impact on our own realities - not just
as shadowy, informational, meme-corrupted data, but real-time,
sentient entities. This wasn’t being offered exclusively as
explanation for the ET enigma of course, but as a possible extra
facet, to an already excessively murky area, I agree.
Within eastern mysticism and western magickal systems it’s
fairly well accepted that thought forms can and do take on a
life of their own. The mystic and magician alike purposefully
manufacture what are known as Tulpas, Egrigors or Genie, which
act as servitors, created individually or collectively. This
might best be described as the upwelling of psychokinetic energy
attached to a thought form of intent, as apposed to randomly
generated PK and poltergeist type activity.
In 1972, the Toronto Society for Psychical Research conducted
an experiment to produce a ghost and gave it the name Philip.
Philip began to manifest, doing the usual things one expects
during a séance, rapping on the table, levitating objects and
such like. The recordings of the sounds produced some
interesting results.
Sharon McGovern writes:
“When the peculiar quality of the rapping was analyzed,
the sound print showed a buildup to the sound’s peak rather than
the other way around, as is normal. Philip also rapped on a
metal plate specially wired to record vibrations and discourage
fraud. He lifted his table about an inch and a half above the
ground in front of the group and a film crew, which was caught
by surprise and failed to record the event.” [1]
I understand that the experiment has since been successfully
reproduced by various paranormal societies and pseudo/scientific
bodies.
In the December of 2005, I was invited to take part in a
pilot experiment to consciously manifest UFO type activity above
and around a secret rural location in the UK.
The pilot experiment was being conducted under the auspices
of the Society for Psychical Research.
[Correction added on May 15th, 2007. Caryn Anscomb was contacted
by Peter McCue, who advised that the experiment was in fact conducted
under the auspices of BUFORA, not the Society for Psychical Research.]
The proposed experiment was outlined in a short article that
was posted on BUFORA’s (British UFO Research Association),
website 2005 and forwarded to me shortly before the experiment:

CREATING UFO PHENOMENA: A PROPOSED EXPERIMENT
& CALL FOR PARTICIPANTS
by
Peter A. McCue
INTRODUCTION
Could it be that we’re linked with one another
in a ‘psychic internet’, and that our collective
imaginings sometimes cause people to experience
hallucinations and/or paranormal physical
phenomena? The products of such subconscious
interaction could be purposive – they might
reflect ongoing wishes and concerns. For
example, if there’s a widespread desire to
believe that extra-terrestrial beings are
visiting Earth, the psychic internet might
generate phenomena suggesting that that’s the
case1; and if many people have a strong desire
to believe in life after death, ‘evidence’
suggesting post-mortem survival might be
produced. But the psychic internet could be a
complex mechanism rather than an all-wise
‘higher mind’, and some of its productions could
serve no clear function or even be harmful.
If it exists, the psychic internet (or
collective subconscious) could enable UFO cases
to feed off themselves. For example, if a
locality became known as a hot-spot for UFO
activity, and if the matter received extensive
publicity, the collective imaginings of members
of the public could serve to engender new – and
quite genuine – phenomena. The same could go for
a location that acquired a reputation for being
haunted. Paradoxically, then, it’s possible that
a spurious case could turn into a genuine one if
it received sufficient publicity!
Evidence from laboratory-based parapsychological
research shows that paranormal effects can be
instigated deliberately (see, for example, Radin,
1997). Tyrrell (1973) refers to cases in which
people have deliberately made apparitions of
themselves appear to others. He states: “I have
found records of 16 occasions on which this…has
been tried with success, and in most cases
success has been achieved on the first
attempt.”(p. 35). (Interestingly, he notes that
on several of the recorded occasions, the agent
went to sleep after concentrating his mind
strongly on the percipient, and that it was then
that the apparition was seen.) Tyrrell also
refers to an experiment in which a Mr Kirk
looked at a bright disc and tried to make a
percipient see it. The percipient reportedly saw
luminous clouds, which concentrated into a disc.
In the light of such reports, one might ask
whether UFO experiences could be created,
experimentally, in a similar way. But if the
concept of the psychic internet is valid, it
might be better to have multiple agents, all
visualizing the same thing. If that
‘strengthens’ the process, the effects might go
beyond the creation of short-lived sensory
phenomena, and include electrical, mechanical,
photographic, and biological manifestations,
thereby giving a degree of physical reality to
the UFO event.
PROPOSED METHOD
It’s suggested that we carry out a relatively
simple pilot experiment, as follows:
A target site in a rural area will be selected,
with the agreement of the principal occupants.
(The decision to choose a rural setting for the
target site is based on ethical considerations,
since a UFO event occurring in a busy area could
conceivably distract people and cause an
accident.)
A number of people (perhaps 15 or more) will act
as agents (i.e. visualizers). Before the
‘active’ stage of the experiment, they will
receive photographs of the site, to help them
imagine it during their visualization sessions.
However, they won’t be told its location or the
names of the occupants.
Each of the agents will be sent a script for the
intended UFO event. (For example: Two large
delta-shaped objects are hovering sixty feet
above [a feature of the target site]… A smaller,
circular, craft is emerging from one of the
larger craft…It’s landing on the lawn behind the
house… Three entities are stepping out…They’re
walking over to a bush…They’re taking cuttings
from it… They’re returning to the circular
craft…It’s floating up…It has left indentations
on the lawn…The circular craft is now merging
with the delta-shaped one from which it came...
The two delta-shaped craft are now shooting off
in a south-westerly direction…) The script will
be illustrated with drawings.
The scripted ‘action’ won’t be restricted to the
visual modality. Sounds and/or other sensory
impressions will be included.
The experiment will run for two weeks. During
this period, the agents should spend at least
10-15 minutes, twice a day, imagining (as
vividly as possible) the scripted scenario. This
should be done in a quiet and comfortable
location (e.g. lying on a bed), without
distractions (TV, radio, etc.). If agents feel
that it will assist their visualization, they
can tape-record the script and listen to the
recording during the visualization sessions. If
possible, one of the visualization sessions
should be carried out shortly before the agent’s
bedtime.
The occupants of the target site won’t, of
course, be shown the script – at least, not
until the experiment has been completed. They
will be asked to keep some basic recording
equipment (a camera, camcorder, and
tape-recorder) at hand for use in the event of
anything unusual occurring, and to keep a diary
of any anomalous incidents, strange or vivid
dreams, or unusual impressions.
The results of the pilot experiment will be
announced on the BUFORA webiste.
COMMENTS
If the occupants of the target site reported a
UFO event that broadly matched the scripted
scenario, critics might suggest ways in which
this seemingly positive result had come about.
For example, it might be suggested that one of
the agents had recognized the target site from
the photographs and had tipped off the occupants
about the script! But on the plus side, the
proposed pilot experiment should be relatively
cheap and easy to carry out; and if it seemed to
‘work’, further experiments could be conducted,
using a more rigorous methodology.”
[The pilot proved unsuccessful. There were a
number of unforeseen logistical problems during the
two-week visualisation process, not least the
synchronization of the viewers which could have been
better managed.]
McCue presented his conclusions in The
Paranormal Review, 2006:
“The proposed experiment was outlined in a short
article (McCue, 2005) that was posted on
BUFORA’s website. It included an appeal for
participants. But that was largely ineffective,
and the majority of participants were recruited
in other ways (e.g. by my e-mailing personal
acquaintances and inviting them to take part).
In all, 13 participants were recruited....
..A house in a rural area was chosen as a
possible ‘target site’...
The participants were asked to familiarize
themselves with the two action sequences
described in the script and to spend at least 15
minutes, twice a day, trying to imagine the
events occurring. They were asked to try to will
them to happen. I asked them to visualize both
sections of the script during each visualization
session; and I suggested that the visualization
sessions could be carried out in any suitable
place of their choosing, even in bed. Regarding
the second of the visualization sessions to be
carried out each day, I suggested that it might
help if they did it shortly before the time they
normally fell asleep...
The participants were asked to carry out the
twice-daily visualization sessions for a
fortnight, the last day being 24th December
2005.
Outcome
I e-mailed Mr X [Target-site owner/occupant] in
late December, and in addition to seeking
information about any sights, sounds, etc., I
asked him whether he, his wife, or any other
occupants of the house, had had any unusual
subjective impressions or dreams since the start
of the experiment. Replying on 1st January (at
which point he wouldn’t have known what was in
the script), he stated: “We have nothing to
report in the case of unusual activity during
the time span of the experiment.” So far as I
know, he and his wife haven’t experienced any
delayed effects.
Using internet search engines, I’ve looked for
information about any recent UFO sightings in
the vicinity of Mr and Mrs X’s home, but I’ve
not come upon any such reports. It’s possible
that sightings have gone unreported or not been
publicized; but, on balance, it appears that the
experiment failed to produce the intended
effects.”
[Given the ‘after experiment’ realising of
strategic flaws, it would be of interest to see
the experiment re-run in a more tightly
controlled format.
McCue’s full article ATTEMPTED GENERATION OF UFO
PHENOMENA: A PILOT EXPERIMENT can be found in
the July, 2006, edition of The Paranormal
Review.[2]
There is an interesting bit of synchronicity to the above that I
feel is worth a mention. The scripted visualisation for the evening
sessions turned out to be a significant match to an experience I
personally witnessed in 1996, in a remote location in the UK. I
contacted Mr McCue after the first reading of it because I was concerned
that my experience and bias might interfere with the experiment and skew
the results to some extent (whether positively or negatively) and I
suggested that I should perhaps withdraw from the experiment.
I was assured that the scripted scenario was
purely coincidental, and after some consideration we decided to go ahead
with my participation in the pilot experiment.
As an aside, for anyone looking into current experimentation on
retrocausality (see physicist John Cramer’s work) the above scenario
‘might’ be of some interest.]
Caryn Anscomb comments:
As the discussion between Gary and myself
developed, we pondered on how myth and thought
forms might manifest as a material reality over
time, specifically focusing on the MJ-12
legends. We invited one of our sources into the
debate, interested to hear what he might have to
offer, and once again getting onto the Viral
Meme topic.
Our contact puts forward the probability that the VMI (Viral Meme
Internet) is technologically driven, which includes back-door computer
viruses as well as front-door information memes and viruses, and further
postulates that this is being perpetrated by a cadre` inside the
Intelligence-Business Community (IBC) and outside the systematic and
structural IBC review.
On discussing the manifestation of an MJ-12 type consortium, our
contact further offered his opinion that the MJ-12, that may have been
invented, is now a reality in the body of the ‘VMI’ IBC-driven
organization.
The UFO community has been deeply penetrated by the manipulators of
information, who couldn’t really give a fig whether there might be any
valuable data pertaining to Aliens and contact hidden behind the
deafening noise. That’s not their business; their business is
information warfare.
A concern, which both my colleague and I share, is whether there is
indeed anyone in the ‘right places’ taking the spooky phenomenon
seriously enough. We haven’t seen any truly obvious signs of that being
the case. There is a level of personal interest exhibited, certainly.
Professionally, an interest in how information moves, who’s saying what
and to whom. Any honest concern regarding the possibility that an
exogenous intelligence penetrates our reality, with apparent ease and
stealth? Well, if there is, our sources are in even better stealth mode
than the phenomenon.
There’s been much speculation of late regarding impending
Disclosure.....yet again! (See the
Starpod Blog) [3] From my
‘lofty’ seat on the fence, I see little of magnitude coming in our
direction in the foreseeable future. The best one might hope for at this
juncture is some form of compromise between honesty and lies.
