 Shortly after putting on a play during which a comic \sc{ufo} in a coolie hat descends to dispense holiday cheer, I was faced with the incredible and mind-bending coincidence of seeing a dilating \sc{ufo} light which suddenly became a V-shaped formation of smaller \sc{ufo} lights, disappeared, and then reappeared on the railroad tracks some fifty or sixty yards from the train platform where I was waiting for the Sunday evening commuter train from Boston.

Speculation on the identity of these objects has ranged from mystical views heralding the coming of the mythical beast of the Apocalypse to serious efforts by astronomers to devise an intergalactic signal which indicates the presence of intelligent life.
 
 Effort in this direction has included psychological treatment of the \sc{ufo} experience, with diagnoses ranging from schizophrenia to sexual frustration. In Jung's thought, the \sc{ufo} was a fiery archetypal symbol \ld of what? The symbolic significance of the \sc{ufo} has not so far been satisfactorily explained.

 At the time that I filed this second statement, I was in a rather kamikaze state of mind. I felt that I had no choice but to express myself in terms which sounded insane, and that this present insanity had better be confined to a limited audience, lest I lose my credibility as a psychic, and also a certain number of my friends and associates, whom I judged to be in no mood to hear about strange dilating lights in the sky.

 I wrote \dq{The Astrebus} (which deals with the circumstantial aspects of \sc{ufo} contact and advances the idea of a language which is an active rebus) in somewhat of a fever which lasted about twelve hours on a Spring evening in 1976.

 Evidently, some part of these manifestations have to do with sex.  They also have to do with an entity or entities who possess a rather weird sense of humor. Or is this really so weird? I can conceive of some well-intentioned ectoplasmic entity trying to signal to me the basis of Torres or Torres\slash Fox\slash \sc{ufo}naught's derangement. I really do not feel that in this session I was being played with or manipulated mentally. It was the intention of the entity to signal us in some way. A name which came across to me psychically as concerned with the identity of spirits present was Dom or Dominick. Torres says this is not the name of his uncle and I do not know any one or thing named Dom or Dominick. I used to go to a bar in New York we called the Dom.

 Whether or not Galligan's chapters 33, 1969 and 1970, are actually chapters from an Air Force textbook (they read like chapters from an Air Force textbook), it is good not to fall into any \dq{trap} whatsoever.
 
 One of these traps concerns the belief that military personnel and those experts employed by military personnel are level-headed, infallible, and not subject to telepathic and\slash or emotional mental alteration.
 
-Any thought given to the behavior of Nazi military personnel during World War II, for example, should call into question the idea of superior logical thought as being an implicit military characteristic.

The difference between human beings and \sc{ufo} entities, Zeena asserted, is not wholly a matter of expanded awareness. These entities simply have more pranic energy per square inch of their very real physical existence and thus find it difficult to be present entirely within our \dq{material} vibrational continuum, which is actually more dense electromagnetically than \sc{ufo} matter.

 I am aware that in the preceding section on chlorophyl and time insult I have advanced a radical alteration in the description of the structure of matter.
 
 This is not some frivolous idea I picked up while eating carrots and reading a paperback on Einstein's halloween parties. These ideas are based on the technical reading which I have been doing since my initial \sc{ufo} sighting in 1973. This technical reading has been primarily in the area of mathematical philosophy and the description of experiments in chemistry and physics. I am aware that I have placed these new concepts of time structure within the unusual context of a chronologically-written, a-sequential narrative. As stated in the introductory chapter, this technique has been deliberate. As well as giving some of the mind-altering qualities of the \sc{ufo} reality, I wanted to demonstrate that it is quite possible to remain sane while writing an account of unusual happenings and that the study and documentation of unusual happenings need not and probably should not be approached with the rigidity of logic.
