I’m almost finished slobbering over the 1973 Pascagoula event and Calvin Parker’s two new books about it.

The alleged abduction story is one of the best in UFO literature, just as was Ken Arnold’s 1947 sighting, Zamora’s 1964 Socorro episode, the 1966 Ann Arbor/Dexter “swamp gas” fiasco, and a few other notable UFO incidents.

Not that Calvin Parker’s ordeal is ET related, necessarily, or Arnold’s flock of saucers were ET vehicles, or Zamora’s egg-shaped object was an extraterrestrial transport, or Frank Mannor’s mottled “thing” in his farm swamp was something from another world but, rather, because the incidents were all reported by sane, normal, observant witnesses.

The problem derives from UFO enthusiasts inserting nonsense into the observations and accounts.

Once UFO buffs/ufologists sink their teeth into sightings, those sightings, no matter how purely reported, get botched by the biases and ignorant effluvium inserted in conversations and reportage of the sightings.

This is happening with Calvin Parker’s revival of his iconic and interesting “ordeal.”

It started with his re-opening the incident to scrutiny on Facebook, where the dregs of society are predominant and controlling of the conversations.

Then Calvin’s allowance of hypnosis by “amateurs” and terribly biased members of the UFO community further compromised his intriguing story. (The bias is in the ETH category, sadly.)

Something remarkable happened to Charles Hickson and Calvin Parker in 1973 during their fishing escapade.

What happened and how it impacts the UFO reality is now under stress by ufological meddling of the most intellectually debilitating kind.

I don’t think there is a way to back-engineer the incident to its pristine, early account.
