Night of 18 May 2012/morning of 19 May 2012.  Brief dream recollections.  The first involved a sense of attending a function at which I received a plaque commemorating my five years as a MUFON member.  It seemed rectangular and dark wooden.  The top portion in clear "plastic" raised letters spelled out MUFON.  Overall it was a generic plaque in that my name was not on it but the years of my membership (2006 to 2011) were.  My second recollection involved Budd Hopkins, may he RIP.  It seemed that it was perhaps June 23 or 30.  Evidently Budd was now a member in one or two UFO organizations but previously had a lapse in membership in one or both.  He seemed to mention to me that he was about to reach 15 years as a member in one organization but that no one was aware of that fact (apparently not even Dr David M Jacobs knew).  This anniversary fell on his birthday, June 30.  Note: Budd's actual birthday was June 15th.

Night of 17 May 2012/morning of 18 May 2012.  Brief recollections.  The first involved a dark(?), circular UFO in the sky.  As I recall numerous helcopters approached and surrounded it.  Did it change form?  Then it seemed that whatever it was or became rapidly descended and headed towards me.  Last recollection involved what seemed to be human soldiers in what appeared to be a helicopter which apparently stopped.  The soldiers' momentum forced them violently forward.  That is all...

Night of 16 May 2012/morning of 17 May 2012.  Intersting recollections.  The first I'll call my "To Serve Man" dream (think original The Twilight Zone).  The entire sequence was in extreme vivid color.  The first Kanamit I saw seemed very tall (I thought 20 to 30 feet but this was not the case).  Numerous other alien creatures walked everywhere.  They all seemed to wear extraordinary "jewelry."  The second I'll call my "Star Trek" dream (think original 1960s TV series).  It began with what seemed to be a Yankees-Red Sox game.  In the Yankees(?) dugout, which was rectangular but smaller and more boxy than a real major league baseball dugout, was a continuous loop projection of the USS Enterprise zipping towards us at different angles.  Someone somewhere said that this was, "The beginning of time."  Last, tonight's our May 2012 local MUFON meeting.  I'm going to be there.  Can't wait!

Earlier this afternoon on a radio sports talk show the guest said that in the NHL's Stanley Cup Playoffs it was important and advantageous for a team to engender first doubt, then concern, and ultimately fear in its opponent.  This has applications in so many spheres of life.  As far as aliens and UFOs are concerned I think this applies to at least one researcher (Dr David M Jacobs).  He's clearly done his research, study and investigation.  However, that doesn't mean he's correct regarding aliens and their ultimate intentions.  Let's hope he's wrong.  But if he's right all bets are off...

Now let us bring Cass Sunstein and his enlightened views into the light (no puns intended).  Imagine a (not too distant) future in which "false conspiracy theories" regarding Our Government (which is quite different from Our Country) are essentially outlawed.  Think the John F Kennedy assassination.  Think global warming/climate change.  Think UFOs.  Etc and so on.  Those wishing to know more may wish to start with: www.salon.com/2010/01/15/sunstein_2/
