    Alien Abductions: Your Personal Experiences (IHTM)

    :shock: Dear OTR, I insist you stop inventerising your own words! You have me at an advantage.I have no idea what this could mean. I quite agree.Until the unknown and yet to be established laws are known, speculation and guessery will abound.

    Alien Abductions: Reports, Theories & Stories (Not IHTM)

    :? What if(this is a purely rhetorical question) It was made known by medical authorities that a condition exists- SP. That it was fairly common. That one would almost certainly seem to experience an alien abduction-and that this condition is as common as a cold-Would it still be reported or...
