Many people claim to have developed unusual abilities after alleged alien abductions (or as some prefer to call it "alien contact"), but quite often they are not aware that any contact has occurred until they undergo hypnosis. 

There are some who question the ability of hypnosis to recall past events, even though hypnosis has been proven to reveal memories that have been lost or forgotten many years ago.

Whilst most Ufologists would like to see more UFO sightings getting a mention in the mainstream media, there is always some concern on how the reports are presented. In the past, TV stations and Newspapers have never been able to resist smiling or making some joke when providing the information. 

The reason for the mainstream media taking an interest today is the result of 24 files being released by the MOD, containing some 6,000 pages of documentation covering UFO reports for the period 1994-2000.

With Manchester City due to play Stoke City in a late afternoon match, there were four other hard fought FA Cup fifth round matches played this busy Saturday. 

As covered extensively in a previous article, the tie of the round was Southampton v Portsmouth which ended with an undeserved big win for the Premiership team. The Saints fought hard but didn't have the finishing finesse of Pompy who came away with a 4-1 win.

When writing articles about UFO's I often invite people to share the sightings they have had, and I am pleased to say that there has been a good response to this request just lately. 

Less than a week ago I was contacted by the Birmingham UFO Group, which I was very pleased about, because they are locally situated. 

Dave Hodrien, Chairman of operations and investigations, kindly mentioned some of the things that the group are involved in and invited me to take a look at their website.
