In the end it all terrorized him and he seek help from a Christian Minister. I cannot locate the book now and i cannot find a reference to it nowadays. <br /><br />The A.Jamaludin stuff i read from mostly from FSR and i am familiar with some of the high strangeness stuff like the little people cases he mention, that also exist here in Java with no correlation to UFO phenomena at all, i have a feeling A.J are trying too hard to fit in local mystical thing into the 'modern UFO' terminology.. kinda like magonia in reverse.<br /><br />regards<br />miloAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2019724693487670016.post-35910562639397512962013-03-16T09:28:27.771-07:002013-03-16T09:28:27.771-07:00One of the reasons why there are few "encount...One of the reasons why there are few "encounters" reported in the UFO literature from South and Southeast Asia is that there have been very few active and publishing UFO researchers there. There is an exception: Ahmad Jamaludin, who published [among other things] A Summary of Unidentified Flying Objects and Related Events in Malaysia, 1950-1980. 1981 [published privately]. This was a rather good piece of work. Jamaludin also, I believe, published at least one paper in FSR about Close Encounter of the Third Kind cases there, with drawings of entities.

Just as in Christianity you are required to have faith to believe in God, here the entities seems to seek humanity's belief in them so that they have some kind of power (?). Without it they will be pushed into myth and superstitious zone and more likely to be laughed at than to be believed.<br /><br />back to the graph itself, i think we all know who operate at that hours. In indonesia here, dusk and dawn are also a critical time where the saying says you have to be careful at that times because you are more likely to meet some entities at that time and i dont mean ET type entities. As i notice, there are very few UFO encounter case in indonesia compared to western educated world (father gill's case an exception i guess, but papua is far from java). but we got massive amount of ghost type and magonia type encounters here and i think its because of most ppl still believe in ghost encounters rather than ET.<br /><br />btw prof, one thing about these entities, they are territorial and they never cross waters. i mean if you have some kind of charm from some witchdoctor, it wont work if you take it across nations / over waters (some exception for very powerful charm). its like there are differend ruler for these entities and their powers also limited to their designated area.<br /><br />sorry im rambling, but that graph coincide very much with the time ghost or apparition or supernatural beings operates, these beings are said to avoid large crowds of humans as they cannot stand lot of humans. these im speaking from folklore and reality of today's belief and reality on how many of these cases still occuring today in indonesia.<br /><br />milomiloAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2019724693487670016.post-12441552295733311362010-02-21T18:30:15.286-08:002010-02-21T18:30:15.286-08:00What does this have to do with the topic of the po...What does this have to do with the topic of the post?

Many agendas have a gear-up element and a gear-down element which one might graph roughly as a bell-curve. I wouldn't want to prejudice my thinking about what these "folks" were doing. Plus, there's this dominant time distribution, which I believe must be taken into account in any hypothesis. If there is something about "night"/opposite-side-of-the-Sun/darkness/state-of-consciousness/X that's going on [and there seems to be] then it's hard to place too many hypotheticals on whatever "they're" doing if one doesn't know what that factor is. Let me give a purely b_______ example, Pretend that there is something about the "force" environment when the "technology" is on the shielded side of the Earth that matters. There might be times when the "program" gears up and when it has to gear down. [this is just smoke-blowing so don't take it seriously]--my point is that "environment" may well matter in ways that we don't yet have much clue to. Individual encounters ARE probably well-controlled "on/off" displays, but they may still happen "statistically" as to their frequency because of some environmental condition. That condition could be entirely due to our own nature or the external physical one.The Professorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07811807639219365621noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2019724693487670016.post-73193182244268301412010-02-17T21:23:02.203-08:002010-02-17T21:23:02.203-08:00The curves shown seem to follow what you would exp...The curves shown seem to follow what you would expect in nature; some sort of bell curve distribution. For that reason I think this data is measuring humans much more than it is measuring aliens (although what exactly it is measuring in humans remains unclear). <br />Wouldn't aliens doing visitations in an organized way, under some sort of master plan (as you theorize in your numbered guesses above) execute their visits very specifically? Why would they come down 'around 2 or 3 in the morning' instead of just getting it done at a precise and predetermined time? Am I assuming too much about how efficient and superior these beings must be to accomplish what it seems they have accomplished?<br />I think if this was measuring alien activity it would show more of a neat on-off sort of distribution, not an organic, earthly, bell curve distribution.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2019724693487670016.post-23684111977372128932010-02-17T07:25:27.917-08:002010-02-17T07:25:27.917-08:00To Eric: thanks for the graph.

Some form of "altered state of consciousness" could play a role, as we've said, and all this change in powerful brain hormone activity could well be a factor, if so. It would be interesting to know if, just as we CAN shift our biological clocks [adjusting to jet-lag et al], whether the people who are up at the wee hours have shifted these sorts of graphs so that some of the hormonal changes aren't as great as the lab tests show, though. Ah well, no one said any of this would be easy, especially if we keep thinking.

Humans in the "...I have no intelligent answer. Humans in the "state of nature" seem to begin a shift from a dopamine-dominated state of alert consciousness to a serotonin-dominated dream state of consciousness. This occurs in "natural light" cultures when the Sun goes down. I believe that it is true that 2to3AM is a minor change point in this, just as its opposite 2to3PM is a gear-down period for us in day. All this is off-the-top by me and should be taken as essentially rambling, until someone looks into it more "professionally". The problem that I feel about that hypothesis playing TOO great a role is that the stimulus of the level of a close encounter should blast away the Serotonin-dominated state and send us roaring into Dopamine land---just like a criminal break-in at your home gets you wide alert real fast. Still, I like the direction of the thought and there well could be something there.The Professorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07811807639219365621noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2019724693487670016.post-29080443002568045762010-02-16T03:15:24.031-08:002010-02-16T03:15:24.031-08:00I wonder if any thought has been given to the supp...I wonder if any thought has been given to the supposed human "biological clock" as it pertains to rhythms in human brain activity, etc. Is it possible there are fluctuations within humans that correspond to these times of the 24-hour clock?

Poher was REALLY a sharp guy, and he deliberately wanted to avoid deductions like the {reasonable} one you made. But that deduction is not what's happening. The Time of activity of the people had been determined [independently] by French sociologists and it does not correlate to this. That, sound as it might seem to a citizen of basically urban modern society, is not the answer. And, on top of this, such a hypothesis would not explain anything about the dominant night-time effect. You should feel good about yourself, though, as many thinking individuals say what you said in response to this--it is the beginning of a "thinking man's" analysis. ------------------------------------------------------------To Steve: right with you. These things point to the non-randomness of what's going on, and thrash the "Coincidence", random fluke, meaningless blunder type of hypotheses. And, given that these are LANDINGS, the "misidentification" hypotheses get pretty strained. The fact that we are dealing with large numbers and people who are scattered far and wide, points also to Objectivity in the pattern. The "LAW" does not tell us what this is, but it does tell us that the anomaly is robust and very real.--------------------------------------------------------To "Willy": all I can say is that you're apparently off your meds, and the next time you come over you'll need a heavy dose of the NICAP files.The Professorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07811807639219365621noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2019724693487670016.post-67894387775642898022010-02-15T14:07:34.147-08:002010-02-15T14:07:34.147-08:00It occurs to me that the two different peaks in re...It occurs to me that the two different peaks in reported sightings seems to coincide with the times of the evening that most people are likely to be out and about, active in that time. From 10:00 to 11:00 PM people are often either coming home after a late day, or just going out for a late evening. Likewise, 2:00 AM is often the latest that people will stay out late, so the 2:00 AM to 3:00 AM time period is simply when people are on their way home. The intervening hours are normally a time when people gather, often in large groups (the bar, the late dinner, etc.). <br /><br />It seems to me the peaks might simply represent the times when it is most likely that people will be out to experience these things.

They know that there are those of us who love crunching numbers, making graphs, and love the feel of a Sharpie marker between our fingers. They know that someone will look at the data and analyze it - it's their way of saying "Hi, we're intelligent and real." Stranger things have happened!<br />That, and they have to know by now there's nothing good on TV at 3am.... unless they like infomercials. Did you ever see the movie "Explorers"?
