Hi Jim. KeelyNet is a BBS in Texas dedicated to the ideas of John
Keely and other, similar free-energy pioneers. Other BBSs of
similar description are the Tesla BBS and the Cheyenne Mountain BBS.
And my own humble Wrong Number BBS, 201-451-3063.
I have all the KeelyNet files here, feel free to download 'em or
FREQ the files list.
Best,
Clark

SUBMIT ANYTHING!
We don't PROMISE to publish it, but if your topic interests you as a
UFO buff, we think it's a safe bet that others in our "circle" will
share your interest.
Science fiction. Science fact. UFO/paranormal history. Scaly-eyed
skepticism. A book review. A television critique. An interview.
The results of your last physics experiment. You name it: If it
interests you, it will probably interest us and your compeers here.
And it's welcome in CONTINUUM.
Registered copyrighted material will be protected but we do assume a
grant of non-exclusive serial rights from you, the author, upon
submission and before delivery of complimentary copies. You must
inform us of other, pending rights sales upon submission.
Likewise, if you submit work-in-progress, your unpublished copyright
will be respected but a grant of non-exclusive serial rights is
expected in exchange for editorial and development work and before the
delivery of complimentary copies. (Heck, we might even improve it!)
*** P L A N N E D T O P I C S ***
Planned articles in the coming issue include:

It's definitely "un-commercial", but we're committed to keeping the

* Originally from Keith Basterfield

A recent issue of the Australian and New Zealand Journal of Psychiatry, 1990;
24:561-565, carries a several page article by Terry Heins, Allison Gray and
Maxine Tennant titled "Persisting hallucinations following childhood sexual
abuse." Thery describe work by an American, Ellenson, who interviewed female
incest survivors. "Careful mental state examinations found that all showed a
post-incest syndrome involving specific disturbances in thought (certain types
of nightmares, obsessions, dissociative experiences and phobias) and in
perception (certain types of illusions and visual and auditory
hallucinations)."..."Commonest were shadowy figures, movements in peripheral
vision, intruder sounds...and inner helper voices..." I see some parallels with
abductees here. As you may be aware Bob Bartholomew
and I have drawn researchers attention to the possible link between
fantasy-prone personality, abductees and childhood abuse. The line of
thinking would go: could lifelong abductions actually be due to childhood
(sexual) abuse (which we believe can trigger multiple personality
disorders), causing a fantasy world creation which is then interpreted by UFO
researchers as of alien abductions? We have challenged researchers to undertake
detailed psychological testing
of abductees to test if they are fantasy-prone, and also suggest the checking
of their childhood for evidence of sexual abuse. I can supply some references
for those interested in further reading on this topic. Comments would be
welcome on this matter.

Subject: A peculiar dream
Date: 4 Apr 91 06:30:29 GMT
From: snelson@eniac.seas.upenn.edu (Steven Nelson)
When I was young, I'm not certain precisely when, I had a very peculiar
recurring dream:
It was the fourth of July. We had set up fireworks in the backyard,
and my father was holding some sort of barbacue. A number of obviously dream-
like elements mark this as a dream. For example, a pig, which I had treated as
a pet in the dream, was cooked, then came back to life.
I crawled to a neighbor's yard-- a huge, grassy field. I saw flashing
lights coming from the area, which I interpreted as fireworks. As I emerged
from the clearing, I could see that the lights came from a huge UFO, which
hovered over the clearing at approximately treetop level. It was bright and
multicolored. Next I was rising in a beam of light. At the end of the light,
there was a face. After so many years, I can't tell you what the face looked
like, except that the skin was pale, perhaps grey, and the mouth was a slit.
When I saw the face, I would always feel intense terror and wake up.
The oddest part about this whole affair is that I'm CERTAIN that what
I just described was a dream. None of the classic physical signs occurred:
no disturbances in the grass, no peculiar wounds, no midnight nosebleeds,
no notable periods of missing time. At the time, I was pretty sure that I
had gotten it from watching 'Close Encounters' and seeing Star Trek.
Would anyone care to tell me anything about my dream? What is, in
your opinion, the likelihood that visitors abducted me? Or was I just scared
by the fireworks?

Hello Clark! I'd bevery happy to receive THE CONTINUUM. My address:
1154 E. Palmcroft
Tempe, AZ 85252
Are you still planning to put up that file on Moon Oddities, or is it
just that I haven't seen it yet?
The March MUFON UFO Journal (which just came 2 days ago) is
excellent, BTW, if you happen to subscribe. Has an article that
presents a new angle on some "crop circles" in Canada; and an article,
quite lengthy, on an alleged witness to a saucer crash in New Mexico in
1947 - ties in with Roswell.
Don't let the snow get you down. We were at 91 degrees today!
Bye! Linda.
