Just occasionally, however, a title comes along that is truly revolutionary, ground-breaking and &#8211; as far as its potential implications are concerned &#8211; thought-provoking in the extreme.<o:p><\/o:p><\/span><\/i><\/div>\n<div class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"line-height: 18.0pt; text-align: justify;\"><i style=\"mso-bidi-font-style: normal;\"><span style=\"color: black; letter-spacing: 0pt; mso-bidi-font-weight: normal; mso-font-kerning: 0pt;\"><br \/>For me, personally, Jacque Vallee&#8217;s&nbsp;<\/span><\/i><b><i style=\"mso-bidi-font-style: normal;\"><span style=\"color: black; letter-spacing: 0pt; mso-font-kerning: 0pt;\">Messengers of Deception<\/span><\/i><\/b><i style=\"mso-bidi-font-style: normal;\"><span style=\"color: black; letter-spacing: 0pt; mso-bidi-font-weight: normal; mso-font-kerning: 0pt;\">&nbsp;and John Keel&#8217;s&nbsp;<\/span><\/i><b><i style=\"mso-bidi-font-style: normal;\"><span style=\"color: black; letter-spacing: 0pt; mso-font-kerning: 0pt;\">UFOs: Operation Trojan Horse<\/span><\/i><\/b><i style=\"mso-bidi-font-style: normal;\"><span style=\"color: black; letter-spacing: 0pt; mso-bidi-font-weight: normal; mso-font-kerning: 0pt;\">&nbsp;both fall into that latter category.

For them, UFOs&nbsp;<span style=\"mso-bidi-font-style: italic;\">have<\/span>&nbsp;to be extraterrestrial.

All we really know for certain is that there most assuredly&nbsp;<span style=\"mso-bidi-font-style: italic;\">is<\/span>&nbsp;a genuine UFO phenomenon. But, as for definitive proof of its actual point of origin or origins? Please! There is&nbsp;<span style=\"mso-bidi-font-style: italic;\">none a<\/span>t all. There is merely a lot of data clearly demonstrating the presence of unidentified &#8220;others&#8221; amongst us.<o:p><\/o:p><\/span><\/i><\/div>\n<div class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"line-height: 18.0pt; text-align: justify;\"><i style=\"mso-bidi-font-style: normal;\"><span style=\"color: black; letter-spacing: 0pt; mso-bidi-font-weight: normal; mso-font-kerning: 0pt;\"><br \/>Vallee and Keel most assuredly and astutely recognized this.

Mac was a very good friend of mine; and like all his friends I was shocked to the core when he passed away suddenly and tragically in October 2009, at the age of only 34.<o:p><\/o:p><\/span><\/i><\/div>\n<div class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"line-height: 18.0pt; text-align: justify;\"><i style=\"mso-bidi-font-style: normal;\"><span style=\"color: black; letter-spacing: 0pt; mso-bidi-font-weight: normal; mso-font-kerning: 0pt;\"><br \/>But, I am pleased to say, Mac&#8217;s latest &#8211; and, inevitably, final &#8211; piece of work ensures that his memory, legacy and ability to think outside of the conventional ufological box will live on.

But, he was also careful not to get sucked into the near-viral mindset that practically screams (take a deep breath): UFOs = alien spaceships piloted by little gray chaps from across the galaxy, who are on a mission to save their dying race by stealing our DNA, eggs and sperm.<o:p><\/o:p><\/span><\/i><\/div>\n<div class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"line-height: 18.0pt; text-align: justify;\"><i style=\"mso-bidi-font-style: normal;\"><span style=\"color: black; letter-spacing: 0pt; mso-bidi-font-weight: normal; mso-font-kerning: 0pt;\"><br \/>Rather, Mac &#8211; right up until the time of his death &#8211; was chasing down the theory suggesting that the UFOnauts may actually represent the last vestiges of a very ancient race of distinctly<span style=\"mso-bidi-font-style: italic;\">terrestrial<\/span>&nbsp;origins; a race that &#8211; tens of thousands of years ago may have ruled our planet, but whose position of power was thrown into overwhelming chaos by two things:&nbsp;<\/span><\/i><b><i style=\"mso-bidi-font-style: normal;\"><span style=\"color: black; letter-spacing: 0pt; mso-font-kerning: 0pt;\">(A)<\/span><\/i><\/b><i style=\"mso-bidi-font-style: normal;\"><span style=\"color: black; letter-spacing: 0pt; mso-bidi-font-weight: normal; mso-font-kerning: 0pt;\">&nbsp;the appearance of a &#8220;debilitating genetic syndrome&#8221; that ravaged their society; and&nbsp;<\/span><\/i><b><i style=\"mso-bidi-font-style: normal;\"><span style=\"color: black; letter-spacing: 0pt; mso-font-kerning: 0pt;\">(B)<\/span><\/i><\/b><i style=\"mso-bidi-font-style: normal;\"><span style=\"color: black; letter-spacing: 0pt; mso-bidi-font-weight: normal; mso-font-kerning: 0pt;\">&nbsp;the rising infestation of a violent species that threatened to eclipse &#8211; in number &#8211; their own society.<o:p><\/o:p><\/span><\/i><\/div>\n<div class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"line-height: 18.0pt; text-align: justify;\"><i style=\"mso-bidi-font-style: normal;\"><span style=\"color: black; letter-spacing: 0pt; mso-bidi-font-weight: normal; mso-font-kerning: 0pt;\"><br \/>They are the Cryptoterrestrials.

For them, however, there is no top-hat from which a white-rabbit is pulled. There is no hot babe sliced in half and then miraculously rejoined at the waist. No: their tricks are far more fantastic. As well as deceiving us about their origins, the Cryptoterrestrials have &#8211; via, perhaps, the use of advanced hologram-style technology, mind-manipulation and much more &#8211; led us to conclude that they have an infinite number of craft, resources and technologies at their disposal.<o:p><\/o:p><\/span><\/i><\/div>\n<div class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"line-height: 18.0pt; text-align: justify;\"><i style=\"mso-bidi-font-style: normal;\"><span style=\"color: black; letter-spacing: 0pt; mso-bidi-font-weight: normal; mso-font-kerning: 0pt;\"><br \/>And that is the trick, the ruse: in actuality, their numbers today may be very small. They may well be staging faked UFO events to try and convince us that they have a veritable armada at their disposal when, perhaps, the exact opposite is the case. And, most important of all, they desperately want us to think of them as visitors from the stars. If their plan to rejuvenate their species is to work, then stealth, subterfuge and camouflage are the essential orders of the day.<o:p><\/o:p><\/span><\/i><\/div>\n<div class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"line-height: 18.0pt; text-align: justify;\"><i style=\"mso-bidi-font-style: normal;\"><span style=\"color: black; letter-spacing: 0pt; mso-bidi-font-weight: normal; mso-font-kerning: 0pt;\"><br \/>Of course, the above all amounts to a theory &#8211; just like the ETH. And, Mac&#8217;s book makes it very clear that he&nbsp;<span style=\"mso-bidi-font-style: italic;\">is<\/span>&nbsp;theorizing, rather than being able to provide the reader with definitive proof for such a scenario. He does, however, offer a logical, and at times powerful, argument in support of the theme of his book.<o:p><\/o:p><\/span><\/i><\/div>\n<div class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"line-height: 18.0pt; text-align: justify;\"><i style=\"mso-bidi-font-style: normal;\"><span style=\"color: black; letter-spacing: 0pt; mso-bidi-font-weight: normal; mso-font-kerning: 0pt;\"><br \/>As for so-called &#8220;alien abductions&#8221;: the clumsy, intrusive means by which ova and sperm are taken by a race of beings we are led to believe are countless years ahead of us is addressed. That the ability of the aliens to wipe out the memories of those they abduct is constantly and regularly overturned by nothing more than simple hypnosis is highlighted. And the unlikely scenario that our DNA would even be compatible, in the first place, with extraterrestrial entities is also firmly dissected. Mac&#8217;s conclusion: all this points not to the presence of highly-advanced aliens who are thousands of years ahead of us; but to the actions of an ancient Earth-based society whose technology may not be more than a century or so in advance of our current knowledge.<o:p><\/o:p><\/span><\/i><\/div>\n<div class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"line-height: 18.0pt; text-align: justify;\"><i style=\"mso-bidi-font-style: normal;\"><span style=\"color: black; letter-spacing: 0pt; mso-bidi-font-weight: normal; mso-font-kerning: 0pt;\"><br \/>Mac also noted how the &#8220;aliens&#8221; seem to spend a hell of a lot time ensuring they are seen: whether its taking &#8220;soil-samples&#8221; at the side of the road; equipping their craft with bright, flashing lights; or hammering home the point to the abductees that they are from this planet, from that star-system, or from some far off galaxy.
