The French space agency is to publish its archive of UFO sightings and other phenomena online, but will keep the names of those who reported them off the site to protect them from pestering by space fanatics.

Jacques Arnould, an official at the National Space Studies Center (CNES), said the French database of around 1,600 incidents would go live in late January or mid-February.

He said the CNES had been collecting statements and documents for almost 30 years to archive and study them.

"Often they are made to the Gendarmerie, which provides an official witness statement ... and some come from airline pilots," he said by telephone.

Given the success of films about visitations from outer space like "E.T.," "Close Encounters of The Third Kind" and "Independence Day," the CNES archive is likely to prove a hit.

It consists of around 6,000 reports, many relating to the same incident, filed by the public and airline professionals. Their names would not be published to protect their privacy, Anould said.

Advances in technology over the past three decades had prompted the decision to put the archive online, he said, adding it would likely be available via the CNES website www.cnes.fr.

Fulfillment of such predictions seems to lag, doesn't it.

I'm skeptical that their intentions will be very clearly evident until the global government is overtly installed . . . or possibly even until after Armageddon.

Well, if we are to continue to wait for Godot, we might as well read Whitehead.

Yeah, it's a complex set of puzzle pieces, for sure.

Seems to me that the routine greys--some say there are 3-4 varieties of greys--the routine greys are supposedly biological robots or bioengineered housing for demons or some such but not very high on the leadership etc. scales. That's the most consistent input I've come across on the greys.

Who knows. Disinformation has to be rife in the subject field.

I don't trust any of the ET's at all.

I'll allow that SOME angelic sorts of critters may at times appear as ET's but I'm somewhat skeptical of even that.

In any case, I'm glad Christ lives within me . . . and that His sheep know His voice . . .

and that all who deny that CHRIST CAME IN THE FLESH and the basic doctrines of the faith--all such deniers are to be avoided, rejected, fled from, disbelieved, etc.

ARen't you aware of the incremental increases in puzzle piece disclusres in terms of quality, frequency etc.?

That line is not infinite. At some point, rather robust disclosure will occur. And it gets more and more interesting year by year whether the new year includes what some hope for, or not.

Personally, I hope they keep things quiet. I think once things are more overtly known, it's a short time until the globalist government takes more tyrannical control. I could wait a long time for that.

I would still like to read your 50-150 line summary.

All the traces and all the sleuths are going cold. This trail will evaporate long before it results in something concrete.

Perhaps.

There have been the surprising bits from quality sources claiming for the first time that they don't think the government will EVER disclose things about UFO's ET's etc.

But then, there is the ET's . . .

and . . . there is God.

The jury is still out.

Not only is the trail going cold, but guests on Coast are less and less talking about UFOs and more about new topics such as lost twins.

Guess I disagree that it's going cold. It's evolving somehow.

But there's still more interesting things coming out by increasing numbers of quality sources. Nothing overly dramatic but bits and pieces. Incremental additions of puzzle pieces. I don't see it going cold.

C2CAM is still a trip regardless. There's still plenty of UFO guests thereon.

"And, some folks think that there are Scriptures referring to them coming out of deep in the earth. Which would be consistent with some reports."

Those were locusts, and if you've ever lived through a 17-year cycle hatch, they are NOT "of this world." *SHIVER*

I hate bugs. If aliens are in bug form, I'm sunk, LOL!

I think there are other refs relating more to "beasts" . . . whatever that means. We shall see--evidently in our era.

But we are to fear only displeasing our beloved who gave HIS all for us.

UFO is no longer foreground. It is background when it appears, such as in the lost twin phenomenon.

Haven't done any stats on it. You could be right.

BTW, your last to me was most puzzling . . . WILCO unless I have a brain fade some day. Have made a post-it note of it.

Which? Foreground-background, or the lost twin phenom?

No stats on the foreground/background issues.

I listen to C2C very irregularly--maybe a hour or 3 a week total in bits and drabs.

Seems like, to me, there's still plenty of UFO stuff.

BTW, it's been eons since I read William James or Whitehead. Those were the days, my friend . . . la la la la

UFOs are in nearly every topic such as lost twin phenom, but as background/scenery, not as focus. Not foreground anymore.

William James is one of the most commonly cited authorities now, he is hot. Whitehead is ignored still.

I guess my impression has been that there has been a net gain in minutes of air time mentioning UFO's in any context.

I'm not sure there's any comfort or huge significance to be taken from their being more "background" in a given story.

In a way, they become the more insideously injected into our culture as part of the norm, wallpaper, woodwork, given.
