Isaac, Researcher, Palo Alto Caret Laboratory,
1984-1987: "Here is the breif introduction. I'm
using the alias Isaac, and used to work in what was called the
CARET program in the 80's. During my time there, I worked with a
lot of the technology that is clearly at work in the recent
drone/strange craft sightings, most notably the "language" and
diagrams seen on the underside of each craft. What follows is a
lengthy letter about who I am, what I know, and what these
sightings are (probably) all about.
The appearance of these photos has convinced me to release at
least some of the numerous photographs and photocopied documents I
still possess some 20 years later that can explain a great deal
about these sightings. On this site you will find some of these.
They are available as high resolution scans that I am giving away
free, PROVIDED THEY ARE NOT MODIFIED IN ANY WAY AND ARE KEPT
TOGETHER ALONG WITH THIS WRITTEN MATERIAL.
I am also trying to get in touch with the witnesses so far,
such as Chad, Rajman, Jenna, Ty, and the Lake Tahoe witness
(especially Chad). I have advice for them that may be somewhat
helpful in dealing with what they've seen and what I would
recommend they do with what they know. If you are one of these
witnesses, or can put me in touch with them, please contact Coast
to Coast AM and let them know.
My Experience with the CARET Program and
Extra-terrestrial Technology
Isaac, June 2007
This letter is part of a package I've assembled for Coast to
Coast AM to distribute to its audience. It is a companion to
numerous document and photo scans and should not be separated from
them.
You can call me Isaac, an alias I've chosen as a simple measure
of protection while I release what would be called tremendously
sensitive information even by todays standards. “Sensitive” is not
necessarily synonymous with “dangerous”, though, which is why my
conscience is clear as I offer this material up for the public. My
government has its reasons for its continual secrecy, and I
sympathize with many of them, but the truth is that I'm getting
old and I'm not interested in meeting my maker one day with any
more baggage than necessary! Furthermore, I put a little more
faith in humanity than my former bosses do, and I think that a
release of at least some of this info could help a lot more than
it could hurt, especially in today's world.
I should be clear before I begin, as a final note: I am not
interested in making myself vulnerable to the consequences of
betraying the trust of my superiors and will not divulge any
personal information that could determine my identity. However my
intent is not to deceive, so information that I think is too risky
to share will be simply left out rather than obfuscated in some
way (aside from my alias, which I freely admit is not my real
name). I would estimate that with the information contained in
this letter, I could be narrowed down to one of maybe 30-50 people
at best, so I feel reasonably secure.
Some Explanation for the Recent Sightings
For many years I've occasionally considered the release of at
least some of the material I possess, but the recent wave of
photos and sightings has prompted me to cut to the chase and do so
now.
I should first be clear that I'm not directly familiar with any
of the crafts seen in the photos in their entirety. I've never
seen them in a hangar or worked on them myself or seen aliens
zipping around in them. However, I have worked with and seen many
of the parts visible in these crafts, some of which can be seen in
the Q3-85 Inventory Review scan found at the top of this page.
More importantly though, I'm very familiar with the “language” on
their undersides seen clearly in photos by Chad and Rajman, and in
another form in the Big Basin photos.
One question I can answer for sure is why they're suddenly
here. These crafts have probably existed in their current form for
decades, and I can say for sure that the technology behind them
has existed for decades before that. The “language”, in fact,
(I'll explain shortly why I keep putting that in quotes) was the
subject of my work in years past. I'll cover that as well.
The reason they're suddenly visible, however, is another matter
entirely. These crafts, assuming they're anything like the
hardware I worked with in the 80's (assuming they're better, in
fact), are equipped with technology that enables invisibility.
That ability can be controlled both on board the craft, and
remotely. However, what's important in this case is that this
invisibility can also be disrupted by other technology. Think of
it like radar jamming. I would bet my life savings (since I know
this has happened before) that these craft are becoming visible
and then returning to invisibility arbitrarily, probably
unintentionally, and undoubtedly for only short periods, due to
the activity of a kind of disrupting technology being set off
elsewhere, but nearby. I'm especially sure of this in the case of
the Big Basin sightings, were the witnesses themselves reported
seeing the craft just appear and disappear. This is especially
likely because of the way the witness described one of the
appearances being only a momentary flicker, which is consistent
with the unintentional, intermittent triggering of such a
device.
It's no surprise that these sightings are all taking place in
California, and especially the Saratoga/South Bay area. Not far
from Saratoga is Mountain View/Sunnyvale, home to Moffett Field
and the NASA Ames Research center. Again, I'd be willing to bet
just about anything that the device capable of hijacking the
cloaking of these nearby craft was inadvertently triggered,
probably during some kind of experiment, at the exact moment they
were being seen. Miles away, in Big Basin, the witnesses were in
the right place at the right time and saw the results of this
disruption with their own eyes. God knows what else was suddenly
appearing in the skies at that moment, and who else may have seen
it. I've had some direct contact with this device, or at least a
device capable of the same thing, and this kind of mistake is not
unprecedented. I am personally aware of at least one other
incident in which this kind of technology was accidentally set
off, resulting in the sudden visibility of normally invisible
things. The only difference is that these days, cameras are a lot
more common!
The technology itself isn't ours, or at least it wasn't in the
80's. Much like the technology in these crafts themselves, the
device capable of remotely hijacking a vehicle's clacking comes
from a non-human source too. Why we were given this technology has
never been clear to me, but it's responsible for a lot. Our having
access to this kind of device, along with our occasionally
haphazard experimentation on them, has lead to everything from
cloaking malfunctions like this to full-blown crashes. I can
assure you that most (and in my opinion all) incidents of UFO
crashes or that kind of thing had more to do with our meddling
with extremely powerful technology at an inopportune time than it
did mechanical failure on their part. Trust me, those things don't
fail unless something even more powerful than them makes them fail
(intentionally or not). Think of it like a stray bullet. You can
be hit by one at any time, without warning, and even the shooter
didn't intent to hit you. I can assure you heads are rolling over
this as well. If anyone notices a brilliant but sloppy physicist
patrolling the streets of Baghdad in the next couple weeks, I'd be
willing to guess how he got there. (I kid, of course, as I
certainly hope that hasn't actually happened in this case)
I'd now like to explain how it is that I know this.
The CARET Program
My story begins the same as it did for many of my co workers,
with graduate and post-graduate work at university in electrical
engineering. And I had always been interested in computer science,
which was a very new field at the time, and my interest piqued
with my first exposure to a Tixo during grad school. In the years
following school I took a scenic route through the tech industry
and worked for the kinds of companies you would expect, until I
was offered a job at the Department of Defense and things took a
very different turn.
My time at the DoD was mostly uneventful but I was there for
quite a while. I apparently proved myself to be reasonably
intelligent and loyal. By 1984 these qualities along with my
technical background made me a likely candidate for a new program
they were recruiting for called “CARET”.
Before I explain what CARET was I should back up a little. By
1984, Silicon Valley had been a juggernaut of technology for
decades. In the less than 40 years since the appearance of
Shockley’s transistor this part of the world had already produced
a multi billion dollar computer industry and made technological
strides that were unprecedented in other fields, from hypertext
and online collaboration in '68 to the Alto in '73.
Private industry in Silicon Valley was responsible for some of
the most incredible technological leaps in history and this fact
did not go unnoticed by the US government and military. I don’t
claim to have any special knowledge about Roswell or any of the
other alleged early UFO events, but I do know that whatever the
exact origin, the military was hard at work trying to understand
and use the extra-terrestrial artifacts it had in its possession.
While there had been a great deal of progress overall, things were
not moving as quickly as some would have liked. So, in 1984, the
CARET program was created with the aim of harnessing the abilities
of private industry in silicon valley and applying it to the
ongoing task of understanding extra-terrestrial technology.
One of the best examples of the power of the tech sector was
Xerox PARC, a research center in Palo Alto, CA. XPARC was
responsible for some of the major milestones in the history of
computing. While I never had the privilege of working there myself
I did know many of the people who did and I can say that they were
among the brightest engineers I ever knew.
XPARC served as one of the models for the CARET program’s first
incarnation, a facility called the Palo Alto CARET Laboratory
(PACL, lovingly pronounced “packle” during my time there). This
was where I worked, along with numerous other civilians, under the
auspices of military brass who were eager to find out how the tech
sector made so much progress so quickly. My time at the DoD was a
major factor behind why I was chosen, and in fact about 30+ others
who were hired around the same time had also been at the
Department about as long, but this was not the case for everyone.
A couple of my co-workers were plucked right from places like IBM
and, at least two of them came from XPARC itself. My DoD
experience did make me more eligable for positions of management,
however, which is how I have so much of this material in my
possession to begin with.
So in other words, civilians like myself who had at--at
most--some decent experience working for the DoD but no actual
military training or involvement, were suddenly finding ourselves
in the same room as highly classified extra-terrestrial
technology. Of course they spent about 2 months briefing us all
before we saw or did anything, and did their best to convince us
that if we ever leaked a single detail about what we were being
told, they’d do everything short of digging up our ancestors and
putting a few slugs in them too just for good measure. It seemed
like there was an armed guard in every corner of every room. I’d
worked under some pretty hefty NDAs in my time but this was so far
out of my depth I didn’t think I was going to last 2 weeks in an
environment like that. But amazingly things got off to a good
start. They wanted us, plain and simple, and our industry had
shown itself to be so good at what it did that they were just
about ready to give us carte blanche.
Of course, nothing with the military is ever that simple, and
as is often the case they wanted to have their cake and eat it
too. What I mean by this is that despite their interest in picking
our brains and learning whatever they could from our way of doing
things, they still wanted to do it their way often enough to
frustrate us.
At this point I'm going to gloss over the emotional side of
this experience, because this letter isn't intended to be a
memoir, but I will say that there's almost no way to describe the
impact this kind of revelation has on your mind. There are very
few moments in life in which your entire world view is turned
forever upside down, but this was one of them. I still remember
that turning point during the briefing when I realized what he'd
just told us, and that I hadn't heard him wrong, and that it
wasn't some kind of joke. In retrospect the whole thing feels like
it was in slow motion, from that slight pause he took just before
the term “extra-terrestrial” came out for the first time, to the
way the room itself seemed to go off kilter as we collectively
tried to grasp what was being said. My reflex kept jumping back
and forth between trying to look at the speaker, to understand him
better, and looking at everyone else around me, to make sure I
wasn't the only one that was hearing this. At the risk of sounding
melodramatic, it's a lot like a child learning his parents are
divorcing. I never experienced that myself, but a very close
friend of mine did when were boys, and he confided in me a great
deal about what the experience felt like. A lot of what he said
would aptly describe what I was feeling in that room. Here was a
trusted authority figure telling you something that you just don't
feel ready for, and putting a burden on your mind that you don't
necessarily want to carry. The moment that first word comes out,
all you can think about it is what it was like only seconds ago,
and knowing that life is never going to be as simple as it was
then. After all that time at the DoD, I thought I at least had
some idea of what was going on in the world, but I'd never heard
so much as a peep about this. Maybe one day I'll write more on
this aspect, because it's the kind of thing I really would like to
get off my chest, but for now I'll digress.
Unlike traditional research in this area, we weren’t working on
new toys for the air force. For numerous reasons, the CARET people
decided to aim its efforts at commercial applications rather than
military ones. They basically wanted us to turn these artifacts
into something they could patent and sell. One of CARET’s most
appealing promises was the revenue generated by these
product-ready technologies, which could be funneled right back
into black projects. Working with a commercial application in mind
was also yet another way to keep us in a familiar mind state.
Developing technology for the military is very different than
doing so for the commercial sector, and not having to worry about
the difference was another way that CARET was very much like
private industry.
CARET shined in the way it let us work the way we were used to
working. They wanted to recreate as much of the environment we
were used to as they could without compromising issues like
security. That meant we got free reign to set up our own workflow,
internal management structure, style manuals, documentation, and
the like. They wanted this to look and feel like private industry,
not the military. They knew that was how to get the best work out
of us, and they were right.
But things didn’t go as smoothly when it came to matters like
access to classified information. They were exposing what is
probably their single biggest secret to a group of people who had
never even been through basic training and it was obvious that the
gravity of this decision was never far from their minds. We
started the program with a small set of extra-terrestrial
artifacts along with fairly elaborate briefings on each as well as
access to a modest amount of what research had already been
completed. It wasn’t long before we realized we needed more
though, and getting them to provide even the smallest amount of
new material was like pulling teeth. CARET stood for “Commercial
Applications Research for Extra-terrestrial Technology”, but we
often joked that it should have stood for “Civilians Are Rarely
Ever Trusted.”
PACL was located in Palo Alto, but unlike XPARC, it wasn’t at
the end of a long road in the middle of a big complex surrounded
by rolling hills and trees. PACL was hidden in an office complex
owned entirely by the military but made to look like an unassuming
tech company. From the street, all you could see was what appeared
to be a normal parking lot with a gate and a guard booth, and a
1-story building inside with a fictitious name and logo. What
wasn’t visible from the street was that behind the very first set
of doors was enough armed guards to invade Poland, and 5
additional underground stories. They wanted to be as close as
possible to the kinds of people they were looking to hire and be
able to bring them in with a minimum of fuss.
Inside, we had everything we needed. State of the art hardware
and a staff of over 200 computer scientists, electrical engineers,
mechanical engineers, physicists and mathematicians. Most of us
were civilians, as I’ve said, but some were military, and a few of
them had been working on this technology already. Of course, you
were never far from the barrel of a machine gun, even inside the
labs themselves (something many of us never got used to), and
bi-weekly tours were made by military brass to ensure that not a
single detail was out of line. Most of us underwent extensive
searches on our way into and out of the building. There it was,
probably the biggest secret in the world, in a bunch of parts
spread out on laboratory tables in the middle of Palo Alto so you
can imagine their concern.
One downside to CARET was that it wasn't as well-connected as
other operations undoubtedly were. I never got to see any actual
extra-terrestrials (not even photos), and in fact never even saw
one of their compete vehicles. 99% of what I saw was related to
the work at hand, all of which was conducted within a very narrow
context on individual artifacts only. The remaining 1% came from
people I met through the program, many of which working more
closely with “the good stuff” or had in the past.
In fact, what was especially amusing about the whole affair was
the way that our military management almost tried to act as if the
technology we were essentially reverse engineering wasn't
extra-terrestrial at all. Aside from the word “extra-terrestrial”
itself, we rarely heard any other terms like “alien” or “UFO” or
“outer space” or anything. Those aspects were only mentioned
briefly when absolutely necessary to explain something. In many
cases it was necessary to differentiate between the different
races and their respective technology, and they didn't even use
the word “races”. They were referred to simply as different
“sources”.
The Technology
A lot of the technology we worked on was what you would expect,
namely antigravity. Most of the researchers on the staff with
backgrounds in propulsion and rocketry were military men, but the
technology we were dealing with was so out of this world that it
didn’t really matter all that much what your background was
because none of it applied. All we could hope to do was use the
vocabulary of our respective fields as a way to model the
extremely bizarre new concepts we were very slowly beginning to
understand as best we could. A rocket engineer doesn’t usually rub
elbows much with a computer scientist, but inside PACL, we were
all equally mystified and were ready to entertain any and all
ideas.
The physicists made the most headway initially because out of
all of our skills, theirs overlapped the most with the concepts
behind this technology (although that isn’t saying much!) Once
they got the ball rolling though, we began to find that many of
the concepts found in computer science were applicable as well,
albeit in very vague ways. While I didn’t do a lot of work with
the antigrav hardware myself, I was occasionally involved in the
assessment of how that technology was meant to interface with its
user.
The antigrav was amazing, of course, as were the advances we
were making with materials engineering and so on. But what
interested me most then, and still amazes me most to this day, was
something completely unrelated. In fact, it was this technology
that immediately jumped out at me when I saw the Chad and Rajman
photos, and even moreso in the Big Basin photos.
The “Language”
I put the word Language in quotes because calling what I am
about to describe a “language” is a misnomer, although it is an
easy mistake to make.
Their hardware wasn’t operated in quite the same way as ours.
In our technology, even today, we have a combination of hardware
and software running almost everything on the planet. Software is
more abstract than hardware, but ultimately it needs hardware to
run it. In other words, there’s no way to write a computer program
on a piece of paper, set that piece of paper on a table or
something, and expect it to actually do something. The most
powerful code in the world still doesn’t actually do anything
until a piece of hardware interprets it and translates its
commands into actions.
But their technology is different. It really did operate like
the magical piece of paper sitting on a table, in a manner of
speaking. They had something akin to a language, that could quite
literally execute itself, at least in the presence of a very
specific type of field. The language, a term I am still using very
loosely, is a system of symbols (which does admittedly very much
resemble a written language) along with geometric forms and
patterns that fit together to form diagrams that are themselves
functional. Once they are drawn, so to speak, on a suitable
surface made of a suitable material and in the presence of a
certain type of field, they immediately begin performing the
desired tasks. It really did seem like magic to us, even after we
began to understand the principles behind it.
I worked with these symbols more than anything during my time
at PACL, and recognized them the moment I saw them in the photos.
They appear in a very simple form on Chad’s craft, but appear in
the more complex diagram form on the underside of the Big Basin
craft as well. Both are unmistakable, even at the small size of
the Big Basin photos. An example of a diagram in the style of the
Big Basin craft is included with this in a series of scanned pages
from the [mistitled] "Linguistic Analysis Primer". We needed a
copy of that diagram to be utterly precise, and it took about a
month for a team of six to copy that diagram into our drafting
program!
Explaining everything I learned about this technology would
fill up several volumes, but I will do my best to explain at least
some of the concepts as long as I am taking the time to write all
this down.
First of all, you wouldn't open up their hardware to find a CPU
here, and a data bus there, and some kind of memory over there.
Their hardware appeared to be perfectly solid and consistent in
terms of material from one side to the other. Like a rock or a
hunk of metal. But upon [much] closer inspection, we began to
learn that it was actually one big holographic computational
substrate - each "computational element" (essentially individual
particles) can function independently, but are designed to
function together in tremendously large clusters. I say its
holographic because you can divide it up into the smallest chunks
you want and still find a scaled-down but complete representation
of the whole system. They produce a nonlinear computational output
when grouped. So 4 elements working together is actually more than
4 times more powerful than 1. Most of the internal "matter" in
their crafts (usually everything but the outermost housing) is
actually this substrate and can contribute to computation at any
time and in any state. The shape of these "chunks" of substrate
also had a profound effect on its functionality, and often served
as a "shortcut" to achieve a goal that might otherwise be more
complex.
So back to the language. The language is actually a "functional
blueprint". The forms of the shapes, symbols and arrangements
thereof is itself functional. What makes it all especially
difficult to grasp is that every element of each "diagram" is
dependant on and related to every other element, which means no
single detail can be created, removed or modified independently.
Humans like written language because each element of the language
can be understood on its own, and from this, complex expressions
can be built. However, their "language" is entirely
context-sensitive, which means that a given symbol could mean as
little as a 1-bit flag in one context, or, quite literally,
contain the entire human genome or a galaxy star map in another.
The ability for a single, small symbol to contain, not just
represent, tremendous amounts of data is another counter-intuitive
aspect of this concept. We quickly realized that even working in
groups of 10 or more on the simplest of diagrams, we found it
virtually impossible to get anything done. As each new feature was
added, the complexity of the diagram exponentially grew to
unmanageable proportions. For this reason we began to develop
computer-based systems to manage these details and achieved some
success, although again we found that a threshold was quickly
reached beyond which even the supercomputers of the day were
unable to keep up. Word was that the extra-terrestrials could
design these diagrams as quickly and easily as a human programmer
could write a Fortran program. It's humbling to think that even a
network of supercomputers wasn't able to duplicate what they could
do in their own heads. Our entire system of language is based on
the idea of assigning meaning to symbols. Their technology,
however, somehow merges the symbol and the meaning, so a
subjective audience is not needed. You can put whatever meaning
you want on the symbols, but their behavior and functionality will
not change, any more than a transistor will function differently
if you give it another name.
Here's an example of how complex the process is. Imagine I ask
you to incrementally add random words to a list such that no two
words use any of the same letters, and you must perform this
exercise entirely in your head, so you can't rely on a computer or
even a pen and paper. If the first in the list was, say, "fox",
the second item excludes all words with the letters F, O and X. If
the next word you choose is "tree", then the third word in the
list can't have the letters F, O, X, T, R, or E in it. As you can
imagine, coming up with even a third word might start to get just
a bit tricky, especially since you can't easily visualize the
excluded letters by writing down the words. By the time you get to
the fourth, fifth and sixth words, the problem has spiraled out of
control. Now imagine trying to add the billionth word to the list
(imagine also that we're working with an infinite alphabet so you
don't run out of letters) and you can imagine how difficult it is
for even a computer to keep up. Needless to say, writing this kind
of thing "by hand" is orders of magnitude beyond the capabilities
of the brain.
My background lent itself well to this kind of work though. I'd
spent years writing code and designing both analog and digital
circuits, a process that at least visually resembled these
diagrams in some way. I also had a personal affinity for
combinatorics, which served me well as I helped with the design of
software running on supercomputers that could juggle the often
trillions of rules necessary to create a valid diagram of any
reasonable complexity. This overlapped quite a bit with compiler
theory as well, a subject I always found fascinating, and in
particular compiler optimization, a field that wasn't half of what
it is today back then. A running joke among the linguistics team
was that Big-O notation couldn't adequately describe the scale of
the task, so we'd substitute other words for "big". By the time I
left I remember the consensus was "Astronomical-O" finally did it
justice.
Like I said, I could go on for hours about this subject, and
would love to write at least an introductory book on the subject
if it wasn't still completely classified, but that's not the point
of this letter so I'll try to get back on track.
The last thing I'd like to discuss is how I got copies of this
material, what else I have in my possession, and what I plan to do
with it in the future.
My Collection
I worked at PACL from 1984 to 1987, by which time I was utterly
burned out. The sheer volume of details to keep in mind while
working with the diagrams was enough to challenge anyone's sanity,
and I was really at the end of my rope with the military's
attitude towards our “need to know”. Our ability to get work done
was constantly hampered by their reluctance to provide us with the
necessary information, and I was tired of bureaucracy getting in
the way of research and development. I left somewhere in the
middle of a 3-month bell curve in which about a quarter of the
entire PACL staff left for similar reasons.
I was also starting to disagree with the direction the
leadership wanted to take as far as the subject of
extra-terrestrials went. I always felt that at least some form of
disclosure would be beneficial, but as a lowly CARET engineer I
wasn't exactly in the position to call shots. The truth is, our
management didn't even want us discussing non-technical aspects of
this subject (such as ethical or philosophical issues), even among
ourselves, as they felt it was enough of a breach of security to
let civilians like us anywhere near this kind of thing in the
first place.
So, about 3 months before I resigned (which was about 8 months
before I was really out, since you don't just walk out of a job
like that with a 2 week notice). I decided to start taking
advantage of my position. As I mentioned earlier, my DoD
experience got me into an internal management role sooner than
some of my colleagues, and after about a year of that kind of
status, the outgoing searches each night became slightly less
rigorous. Normally, we were to empty out any containers, bags or
briefcases, then remove our shirt and shoes and submit to a kind
of frisking. Work was never allowed to go home with you, no matter
who you were. For me, though, the briefcase search was eventually
enough.
Even before I actually decided to do it, I was sure that I
would be able to sneak certain materials out with me. I wanted to
do this because I knew the day would come when I would want to
write something like this, and I knew I'd regret it until the day
I died if I didn't at least leave the possibility open to do so.
So I started photocopying documents and reports by the dozen. I'd
then put the papers under my shirt around my lower back, tucked
enough into my belt to ensure they wouldn't fall out. I could do
this in any one of a few short, windowless hallways on some of the
lower floors, which were among the few places that didn't have an
armged guard watching my every move. I'd walk in one end with a
stack of papers large enough that when I came out the other end
with some of them in my shirt, there wouldn't be a visible
difference in what I was holding. You absolutely cannot be too
careful if you're going to pull a stunt like this. As long as I
walked carefully they wouldn't make a crinkling noise. In fact,
the more papers I took, the less noise they made, since they
weren't as flimsy that way. I'd often take upwards of 10-20 pages
at once. By the time I was done, I'd made out with hundreds of
photocopies, as well as a few originals and a large collection of
original photographs.
With this initial letter I have attached high resolution scans
of the following:
A page from an inventory review with a photo
that appears to depict one of the parts found in the Rajman
sighting and parts very similar to the Big Basin craft
The
first 9 pages of one of our quarterly research reports
Scans of
the original photographs used in that report, since the
photocopies obscure most of the details
5 pages from a report
on our ongoing analysis of the “language” (inappropriately titled
“linguistic analysis”), depicting the kind of diagram just barely
visible on the underside of the Big Basin craft
This material
is the most relevant and explanatory I could find on short notice.
Now that these are up, IF I decide to release more in the future,
I'll be able to take my time and better search this rather large
collection of mine that I've sadly never organized. I'm not sure
what I'll be doing with the rest of the collection in the future.
I suppose I'll wait and see how this all plays out, and then play
it by ear. There are certainly risks involved in what I'm doing,
and if I were to actually be identified and caught, there could be
rather serious consequences. However, I've taken the proper steps
to ensure a reasonable level of anonymity and am quite secure in
the fact that the information I've so far provided is by no means
unique among many of the CARET participants.
Besides, part of me has always suspected that the government
relies on the occasional leak like this, and actually wants them
to happen, because it contributes to a steady, slow-paced path
towards revealing the truth of this matter.
Since Leaving CARET
Like I said, I left PACL in '87, but have kept in touch with a
great many of my friends and coworkers from those days. Most of us
are retired by now, except of course for those of us that went on
to get teaching jobs, but a few of us still hear things through
the grapevine.
As for CARET itself, I'm not sure what's become of it. Whether
it's still known by the same name, I'm quite sure it's still
active in some capacity, although who knows where. I heard from a
number of people that PACL closed up shop a few years after I
left, but I've still yet to get a clear answer on why exactly that
happened. But I'm sure the kind of work we did there is still
going strong. I've heard from a lot of friends that there are
multiple sites like PACL in Sunnyvale and Mountain View, also
disguised to look like unremarkable office space. But this is all
second-hand information so you can make of it what you will.
Around 2002 or so I came across Coast to Coast AM and have been
hooked ever since. I admit, I don't take most of the show's
content as anything more than entertainment, but there have been
occasions when I could be sure a guest was clearly speaking from
experience or a well-informed source. For me, there's just
something very surreal about hearing all this speculation and
so-called inside information about UFOs and the like, but being
personally able to verify at least some of it as being true or
false. It's also a nightly reminder of how hectic things were in
those days, which helps me enjoy my retirement all the more.
Knowing I'm not part of that crazy world anymore really is
something I enjoy on a daily basis, as much as I miss some of
it.
Conclusion
What I've shared so far is only a very small portion of what I
have, and what I know. Despite the very sheltered and insulated
atmosphere within CARET, I did ultimately learn a great deal from
various colleagues, and some of what I learned is truly
incredible. I'd also like to say that for what it's worth, during
my time there I never heard anything about invasions, or
abductions, or many of the more frightening topics that often pop
up on Coast to Coast AM. That's not to say that none of it is
true, but in my time working alongside some of the most
well-connected people in this field, it never came up. So at the
very least I can say my intent is not to scare anyone. My view on
the extra-terrestrial situation is very much a positive, albiet
still highly secretive one.
One thing I can definitely say is that if they wanted us gone,
we would have been gone a very, very long time ago, and we
wouldn't even have seen it coming. Throw out your ideas about a
space war or anything silly like that. We'd be capable of fighting
back against them about as much as ants could fight back against a
stampede of buffalo. But that's OK. We're the primitive race,
they're the advanced races, and that's just the way it is. The
other advanced races let them live through their primitive years
back in their day, and there's no reason to think it will be any
different for us. They aren't in the market for a new planet, and
even if they were, there are way too many planets out there for
them to care about ours enough to take it by force.
To reiterate my take on the recent sightings, I'd guess that
experimentation done in the last couple months on a device that,
among other things, is capable of interfering with various crafts
onboard invisibility has resulted in a sudden wave of sightings.
It may not explain all of the recent events, but like I said, I'd
bet my life that's exactly what happened at Big Basin at least,
and it's probably related in some way to the Chad, Rajman and
Tahoe sightings. So, despite all the recent fanfare over this, I'd
say this doesn't mean much. Most importantly, they aren't suddenly
“here”. They've been here for a long time, but just happened to
turn unintentionally visible for brief periods recently.
Lastly, there are so many people selling books, and DVDs, and
doing lectures, and all that, that I would like to reiterate the
fact that I am not here to sell anything. The material I'm sharing
is free to distribute provided it's all kept intact and
unmodified, and this letter is included. I tend to question the
motives of anyone charging money for their information, and will
assure you that I will never do such a thing. And in the future,
just to cover all the bases, anyone claiming to be me who's
selling a DVD or book is most certainly not going to be me.
Any future releases from me will come from the email address
I've used to contact Coast to Coast AM, and will be sent to them
only. I'd like to make this clear as well to ensure that people
can be sure that any future information comes from the same
source, although I must be clear: at this time I do not have any
future plans for additional information. Time will tell how long I
will maintain this policy, but do not expect anything soon. I'd
really like to let this information “settle” for a while and see
how it goes. If I find out I'm getting an IRS audit tomorrow, then
maybe this wasn't too smart. Until then, I'm going to take it
slow. I hope this information has been helpful.
