The Andresson Case. More Wrinkles in a Convoluted tale.

There’s a minor buzz on the silly-circuit tonight, someone by the name of Bob Luca jr wrote a letter to UFO updates proclaiming that the Andeasson Affair is all just a hoax, put on by several members of his family.

The letter, if true is pretty damming to the Andresson case. Which was (if you’ve never heard of it.) a classic abduction drama–hypnotically extract of course. it recounts the long term abduction experience of one Betty Ann Andresson and members of her family. The story’s been bumming around since the late 1970s. It’s notable for it’s complete lack of physical evidence. Something broke into Betty’s home over and over again, abducted her, took her on trips to strange alien worlds and didn’t leave a trace, almost like it was all imagination! (gasp!)

I’ve always had a few doubts about this story. It’s also notable because the book author Raymond E. Fowler thinks HE was abducted too.

Well I guess that’s not really notable.

Here’s the letter that Bob Luca Jr sent to UFO Updates.

[Non-Subscriber Post]

Hello,

I am a family member of Bob and Betty Luca and we on my fathers
side have come foward and have told the truth about everything.
You will read as to why. The truth in the letter belowd is The
Andreasson Affair is a hoax which has been going on for some 30+
years now. We have included both the truth and the proof in both
the letter and the website you can visit that is listed on the
letter. You can contact me at anytime for comment. These days,
Bob and Betty have gone into hiding and will not talk to anybody
about the case and have refused to have a new investigation.
Everything is written in the letter and the website. All my
contact information is on there. Please feel free to write back
should you have any questions.

The Andreasson Affair found out to be a HOAX!

The Andreasson Affair is a 30+ year hoax which is now brought
into the light of truthfulness and has been exposed for what is
it. It has been nothing, but a made up set of well crafted
stories and art work to go along with it and combined with that
was Bob Luca’s help in the technical aspect. I am Bob Luca Jr.
and am the step son of Betty Andreasson and the son of Bob Luca
Sr. of coarse. Over the past 30 years and hundreds of thousands
of hours spent with them I have never seen a shred of anything
that was odd or out of the ordinary except for them fabricating
material in thier own special ways and methods to be released to
the press and in book form a well as to investigators. My reason
for coing through with the truth is simple. When they involve my
name orake claims that I may have been abdcted by aliens than I
draw the line. That is what happened a couple years back. I
never was involved, but when I said I disagreed and they claimed
I was either on drugs or the bad aliens got to me or something
of that nature, that was when I decided to expose them. When my
father was supposedly abducted, he was not leaving a movie, but
was with us at the beach drinking beer and whiskey. He blacked
out from drinking so heavy. This was normal for him. He later
used these blackouts as times where he was supposedly abducted.
Ray Fowler never interviewed anyone from our side of the family.
My father made sure and made no mention of anyone from our side
since we all know the truth about him and his drinking and his
problems with being a compulsive liar.

He not only lies about the ufo’s, but lies about most everythig
which occurs in his life and this is his main problem in life.
He also thrives on being known in the public eye. He doesn’t
understand that he thinks he is high in the saddle in font of
the family with all the ufo stuff when in real life we are all
laughing at him for the fool he is making of himself. All of us
know him for what he is and can see right through him. When I
posted my website explaining the hoax both he and Betty
Andreasson have pulled, he tried to get a attorney to stop my
site postings. It failed as it is freedom of speech. He then
removed their site and e-mail addresses, and got a non published
phone number. He also refused to debate me on tv or radio. Also,
Ray Fowler who completely messed up the whole investigation will
not answer any of the investigation questions either. They have
all gone into both seclusion and hiding.

As for Betty, she is so hung up on her wierd religious beliefs,
she actually thinks she is a moderns day prophet and that god is
contacting her through th ufo’s and warning the world through
her. She need serious psycological help and has serious
issues.She in turn though has been a stay at home wife though
and has been brain washed litterally by my father for all these
years and actually believes anything he tells her! I will give
one example. As for his heavy drinking. He toldher the reason he
must do so is because in our family we are very prone to kidney
failure and by drinking, we keep the kidneys flushed so our
family doctor told us to drink heavily and that would ward off
us ever ending up in the hospital and on a machine. She believes
this 110% and excepts his heavy drinking. I know it sounds far
fetched, but it is true!

Needless to say, he has kept filling her head for years now and
so you can imagine why she is a little wacked! Moving on, and
getting back to my father, he is not one who is into religious
beliefs. My father cares about himself and himself only. When we
were little and he took off for Florida, he could have cared a
less. He was eating prime rib and living the good life! He has
three grandchildren in which two he has only seen once and the
other he has never seen. He does not care to visit them. That
would cost gas money. He claimed to have had a heart attack when
it was only a panic attack. He then claimed he cured his heart
in a few days. This is the compulsive lying I was talking about.
He is then supposed to turn around and write a book about being
abducted and people are supposed to believe him? As mentioned,
on my website, there is much more!

Betty is so far gone at this stage, she now believes that she
was abducted and her memory is shot. During the time of her
supposed abduction, she had two sons that were in a fatal car
crash and had a husband who beat her so with all that going on,
anything could of happened in her mind to cause her to think she
was abducted. She could of been in emotional shock! Again, did
Ray Fowler take any of this into account? No! When I stepped
foot into school to be an investigator, I learned all the wrong
things done in this case within the first two weeks! Moving on,
when I was young and in electronics school, my father would help
him build electronic gadgets. I didn’t know what they were for
at first, but then found out he bugged his own phone to trick
investigators, and also made wierd noises on the line as if a
alien were on the line and all sorts of wierd things. It made
that much more material for Betty to write about. God forbid if
Betty had a dream. That would not be considered a dream, but a
abduction. She would be drawing pictures for the next week of
her dream and writing it up as an abduction. That is how The
Andreasson Affair and the books that followed were printed. My
father ALWAYS made sure Betty stayed home and did not work.

Aside of working one job for a very short while during their
whole marrige, she has stayed home every single week and has
drawn pictures and wrote about ufo’s every week without fail
since they have been married in the late 70’s. If you do just a
little math, you can very well see the massive numbers and
amount of pictures that can be done and material that a couple
can come up with by having one person who is a compulsive liar
and one person who is a skilled artist and writer home working
on projects a good 50 to 60 hours a week can do! Also, my father
has enjoyed taking much time off from work through the years.
While doing so, as mentioned, has bugged the phone on his own
family which again I have seen in person, and also done other
countless and cowardly acts of both electronic and other sorts
of tricks to fool people when they come over to their house into
thinking strange things are going on. Knowing he is doing this
is sheer proof to me that the hoax is all the more real. Why
would you have to do such things if you had such a facinating
story to tell? If the beings were paying a visit so often as
said in their books than why would they be installing electronic
equipment to fool people into thinking something was going on at
their place? This is a very sick and childish thing to do, but I
am sounding like a broken record again! My father is a very low
person and self centered. He thrives on getting any kind of
story that may even get his name on a web page. My biggest anger
again as mentioned is our sibblings names being drawn into this.
We have no part and all have never seen anything except for the
way my father cheats as I have mentioned along with Betty.

I did not set out to go into his personal life here, but all I
will say is he has cheated the ufo world in the worse way
possible and as for friends, loved ones and his kids, he has
also done the same! He is not much of a person whomI ever care
to deal with after he did some other things on a personal level
which if I printed, and for that I would have the proof, there
would be some people who would want to harm him. When I had
cancer, and I was down to 95 pound from 190 pounds my father
simply told my brother my bloodwork probably came back and it
was wrong. You see it would have cost him gas money to come up
and see me. That is how he thinks just like the same reason why
he has only seen his grand children once and he had no choice
since he had to come up here for his fathers funeral. If it were
not for his fathers funeral, he would never had see them. That
is just one example of my father and the way his mind thinks for
himself. Betty being the religious person she is you would think
would say something, but she is just as self centered. She has a
very bad habit of not practicing what she preeches! She is so
jealous, she does not want my father anywhere near our side of
the family or his ex wife. She knows nothing about the women who
call here looking for my father and thinking I am him! That is a
whole other story…

Moving back to their story, I have mentioned allot. I have gone
over how he has played his tricks with electronics and other
ways as well. I have told you how he wanted my site removed, but
could not and when he found this out he changed his number to a
unlisted one and pulled all material he had off the web. He also
would not debate me on tv, radio or not at all! He also had Ray
Fowler not answer or respond to any questions. He also will not
go along with any new investigation or will let family members
or friends who knew him close when he had the abductions be
interviewed and is now changing his story after 30 years?? Betty
has gone right into seclusion with him. If he has done all this
hard work for so many years why won’t he stand up for what he
believes in? I have worked hard in my field and if anyone wanted
to debate me in the type of work I have done I would do it in a
heart beat! There can only be one answer to this. The Andreasson
Affair can be taken for what it is. A HOAX! These two people
have used the ufo society for years and only to gain book sales,
money and own self satisfation of feeling as if they are in the
public eye. They give people out there with real and true
stories a big black eye! I am not saying I don’t believe in
ufo’s even though I have not seen one. To say all the people in
Roswell lied would be calling allot of people liars and that I
am not doing. To call Bob and Betty Luca of the Andreasson
Affair and whom I have known and seen lie in front of my eyes
and seen everything above and 10 times that, but there are items
I can’t print for legal reasons, I can call them liars because I
know they are. The whole family knows it. They even know it. It
is time the ufo community knows it and sets their sites on other
people and their stories and gives them a better chance and more
time to speak since other may have valid stories and not well
rehearsed and carefully written lines that will sell and sound
good! The Andreasson Affair is the best ufo hoax I think anyone
has ever pulled off as far as an abduction case.

Ex-China Foreign Ministry Official says Extraterrestrials live among us

by Paul Chen

Nanjing is famous for one of the worst atrocities in the human history when Japanese invaders allegedly massacred 300,000 Chinese people in Nanjing, Jiangsu Province in December 1937 massacre. Nanjing is now known for its prosperity and peace.

In the industrialized West, there evolved the prevailing Pseudo-religious dogma that human beings are at the centre of ‘G-d’s creation in the universe’. This dogma is the ideological motivation behind the on-going de-legitimization of the verfiable contact that people have had with Extraterrestrials (ETs). This apparent dogma has become the modern equivalent of the corresponding dogma, that “the world is flat”, which Church and other elites centuries ago used to champion. In contrast, free of Western pseudo-religious based dogma, the Buddhist milieu of China, has freed their scientific community, with the support of government, and of community participation, to seek to explore UFO incidences and evidence of human contact with Extraterrestrials.

What is dogma?

‘Dogma’ is a system of obfuscations, propaganda and related ideology, which elites present as “truth”, with the aim to maintain social control, and toexpand their own hold on power. Other examples of current operating dogma include schemes of socialization that aim to convince people that “capitalism promotes freedom and democracy”, that “privatization is a good thing”, and that “economic protectionism is a bad thing”.

A notable example of dogma, in the context of the so-called ‘War on Terrorism’, is that “the U.S. and its coalition partners are waging war in Iraq and Afghanistan not subtantively for oil, but to promote human rights;” meanwhile well-documented human destruction, suffering and oppression worsen.

THE CALL OF THE WEIRD

Travels in American Subcultures

By Louis Theroux

Da Capo Press. 266 pages. $24.
Readers Opinions
Forum: Book News and Reviews

Just who is “we” The Call of the Weird, Mr. Theroux’s extended road trip in search of American oddballs, it’s the wide, wonderful universe of survivalists, flat-earthers, end-of-the-world prophets, Nevada brothel owners, topless dancers, get-rich-quick motivational speakers, white-pride lunatics and the many, many Americans who have been abducted by aliens. And Ike Turner, too.

It might feel as if we have met many of these people before. Mr. Theroux certainly has. He made the same stops about 10 years ago for the BBC in a television series called ‘“Louis Theroux’s Weird Weekends.” In a nostalgic moment, or perhaps to pick up a quick paycheck, he decided to revisit his old pals and see how they were getting along.

Dan Aykroyd Says O’Hare Footage Exists

update on February 1, 2007

Dan Aykroyd
And he has it! According to the former Saturday Night Live star, Dan Aykroyd and his group of filmmakers have come into possession of exclusive O’Hare Airport UFO photographs and video footage.

During a recent promotion for his line of Tequila beverages, I had a chance to speak briefly with Aykroyd about the topic of UFOs.

“Will you be releasing any more UFO documentaries?”

“We should have another DVD out by next year,” Aykroyd replied. “You know there was a major sighting in Chicago recently,” he said in referring to the O’Hare Airport UFO.

Acknowledging the event, I asked if there would be any exclusive O’Hare UFO content in the film. To my surprise, he said not only will they be exposing new photographs of the O’Hare Airport UFO, but exclusive video footage. Dan appeared excited about the new film and the O’Hare story, “it will have photographs, video, and the whole works!

Regan Lee lights off on what she thinks skeptics are like, once again!

Skepticism vs. All The Other Kinds of Skeptoism

Hey, that’s it! Maybe. “Skepto” to denote the rabid, pathological, fundie,mondo, irrational skepticism, and to separate it from normal, everyday, “real” skepticism.

While we do have skepti-bunkies, skeptoid, etc. that seems to offend those that wear those shoes (tough) and confuse some others.

I like Colin Bennett’s chronic and cultural skepticism terms, but that may be too esoteric.

Whatever term you use, and I’ll probably keep on using various forms of rabid-pathological-fundie myself, the point is: there is skepticism, and then there’s something else entirely hiding behind the goodly term of skepticism.

Nick Redfern gets much closer to the truth….

UFO Whistleblowers

Greg’s post on the strange tale of Jaime Shandera’s involvement in the UFO subject should be considered a cautionary and essential lesson for anyone who has tried (or is contemplating trying) to determine precisely what is known about the subject at an official level.

Indeed, as I know well, any attempt to pull back the veil of secrecy that certainly exists when it comes to UFOs often results in conveniently-placed insider sources coming forward with ufological tales of both wonder and awe. Or are they just tales full of lies and half-truths, designed to push persistent ufologists as far away from the real picture as possible? As Greg noted in his post, with respect to the odd tale of the so-called Yellow Book: [It] may be one more piece of disinformation in a litany of junk that was release to ensnare unsuspecting ufologists and the foreign intelligence agents who preyed on them.

Throw memes into a, pot-stir biskly!

From India Daily (where else?)

What happens after death – the extraterrestrial connection from the Hyperspace
India Daily Technology Team
Jan. 28, 2007

It is an intriguing question that has made every one think for ever! There is no direct answer to it because no one for sure knows what really happens. There are all kinds of doubts against the NDE (Near Death Experiences).

Modern science for the first time is getting a chance to bring all the data back to computer simulation to understand what really happens after death. Who are we? Where do we come from and where do we go to after death? What is life? What influences everything that happens around life?

Computers have assembled all the data that is available. It is trying to logical inference from the NDE effects, the reincarnation data (results of thousands of interviews), quantum physics, the extraterrestrial influence on ancient civilizations, the physics of higher dimensions, the natural phenomenon of the universe, the dark matter question, the black hole singularity, the concepts of tachyons and imaginary mass and much more.

What we are going to describe below is the most probable scenario. Till terrestrial technologies can break into higher dimensions in a massive particle collider in future, there is no way to prove the same. In 1916, Bose and Einstein mathematically proved that a perfect fluid of zero viscosity is possible when temperature is close to absolute zero – the temperature outside this physical universe in Hyperspace. The theory was finally experimentally confirmed in laboratory setting in 1998. Bose Eistein condensate – the fluid gives the first signal what really existed just around the time of big bang. So whatever you think is fictional, can be true. Ignorance and over confidence are the biggest reasons for the lack of understanding anything that is not obvious.

Hyperspace is what contains the endless numbers of Universe. It is at absolute zero temperature (-273 degree Celsius). The quantum mechanics and physics are still valid there. The Hyperspace has many more dimensions than our physical universe. It creates universes like bubbles in the ocean that float for a while and then disappears. A chilled universe below it that forms the platform holds the Hyperspace. The Hyperspace has connection to out physical universes through black hole singularities. Hyperspace is not immortal. Everything above the chilled universe is in cycle of birth, tenure of life and eventual death. That includes life, Hyperspaces, Universes, Galaxies, Constellations, Stars and Planets and everything within the universes.

Dances with Loons

The head loon over at the PGS

This is (more or less) an open letter to the denizens to the Paranormal and Ghost Society. You folks have had your fun, made a bunch of smacktalk and threats. That’s cool guys really! What I’ve had to say about your little bunch has not been particularly pleasant. You people appear to be a pack of yahoos who enjoy skulking around private property at night. So what? You got a problem with that? Take it up with the complaint department or better yet, stop being yahoos!

What I object to is this outrageous talk about the Odd Emperor libeling you. No one’s libeled you! If you really think so than you probably don’t understand what the word means. (after reading all the crazy-half witted legal crap on your web page I have little doubt of that!)

In publishing, it’s very important to understand which side one is on. To liable someone, one would have assert something with malicious intent which is also untrue. It’s certainly possible to accidentally liable someone, but that’s not what I’m talking about.

For the record, I have not and I am not libeling your group or anyone else–I’m criticizing your group! Not quite the same thing at all. Just like when your fearful leader criticizes his local police department, the public library system, the local TV news company or some non-profit historical group that he knows nothing about. The ONLY difference is that I’m criticizing you and you people can’t seem to figure out how to deal with it. It’s not liable, it’s not going to harm you in any way, I’m not placing a hex on you, blighting your crops, hurting your business, stealing your cattle or corrupting your children.

I’m just rendering an opinion.

Some of you over at PGS can’t handle an opinion which is not praising or validating your little group in some way. Your moderator (E.G.”Lord Rick”) is so afraid of criticism that he responds to it by screaming like a little girl.

You know what? That’s tough-titty people. You want to be so restrictive that no differing opinion waifs into your little sandbox? You want to shout UNFAIR! – Leper-outcast-unclean when someone comes along and says “hey! You people are behaving like a bunch of unwashed goober-heads?”

I can’t speak for others but the reason I say that is because, that’s what you look like. The Paranormal and Ghost Society appears to be an entity that doesn’t exist outside Internet and Lord Ricks imagination. Your founder runs all over the place in his pickup truck, trespassing on private property, drinking beer and toking up. To me, that’s unbecoming behavior for almost anyone above the age of 19, that has been my experience and that is  my opinion. Live with it, stop worrying about it.

I strongly suspect that I’m not alone in that opinion.

To “Rick”, your illustrious founder I don’t have much more to say, except this.

Dude; you need to start thinking about the important things in life. Not ghosts and goblins, that crap’s always been around and it pretty much takes care of itself. I’m talking about you Rich and the things you hold dear.

When I see photos of you smoking your crack pipe, waving weapons around, sneaking into places you don’t belong, I roll my eyes and think that you look like a complete jerk. I don’t condone illegal drug use, but to tell you the truth, I also do not give a hot damn if you do drugs or not.

However, I think it’s really stupid to brag about it on a public forum.

Now, why is any of this my business Rich? Because you made it my business, You made it my business by putting photos of you and your buds lighting up pipes in public places. You made it my business and the business of 100 or so people who stopped by your web page today.

You know Rick, I sent you some questions a week or so ago, some of them were silly, perhaps even, disrespectful. I’m sorry about that but, it’s difficult for me to be respectful to someone who is so full of himself, so convinced that he’s doing something that anyone gives a flying flip about.

Rick, anyone can skulk around private property at night, anyone can smoke dope and anyone can throw a good party, anyone can take photos of closed cemeteries and write stories about them.

The question I didn’t send you, the one I should have sent you would be something like this. “Rich; when will you think about growing up? For own sake, For your family’s sake? (BTW, that’s not a threat against you or your family so put your hackles down! Chill out dude!)

Speaking of threats, you write;

“Who knows maybe Ill just knock on his door wonder what he would do then see its all about principal he messaged me at first being all buddy buddy when his heart was full of darkness and bad intent its almost like premeditated murder its wrong. I don’t care ill call the guy 4am after I smoke a bowl lol what is he going to do kick my ass I highly doubt it. People like that don’t need to be taken to court they need to get served justice that is the only way anything gets done nowadays.”
–Rick

I’d be real careful on that score bud. I think “that guy” might mind very MUCH if you call him at 4AM. You can call him before 11 PM, as a matter of fact I believe he’s interested in speaking with you.

Showing up on his doorstep to serve justice? Rick, I don’t wonder what he would see, A drugged-out loser with delusions of grandeur. You can come by Rick but not unannounced. If you call ahead, he might even have a cold one–waiting for you. (A beer Rick, not some other thing)

You Rick are not an officer of justice and if you show up drunk and/or stoned, the real officers of justice will be dealing with you – but I suspect you already know that. Sure hope you do! The paperwork’s a bitch!

That’s really all I have to say to you “Rick” take care and farewell, we will meet again only if you do something silly.

To the members of the Paranormal and Ghost Society? You can stop by the Odd Empire any time you like. Your fearful leader doesn’t extend that offer to people he dislikes. That’s only one of a multitude of differences between us. I’m opened minded and can take a little criticism. Rick is not open minded and he’s evidentially pretty thin-skinned, so are most people over at the PGS, apparently.

BTW, you-all are welcome to comment if you like.

Jacques Vallee, Critical Thinking, and Intelligent UFOlogy

This is yet another preface to our upcoming series on UFOlogy—the first was our UFOlogy Library.  In the past month, I’ve received many emails from people who would rather see Brainsturbator move in a different direction.  Some of these messages have been eloquent and polite, some of them have been very confrontational—but they all make the same point: on a planet where over 10,000 children die every single day due to starvation, disease, abuse or warfare, what the fuck am I doing talking about aliens?Well, first off, I’m not talking about aliens.  The UFO phenomenon is way stranger than mere extraterrestrials.  And that’s precisely why I’m interested in it, and why I will continue to cover it—it’s located at the center of nearly all that is weird and unexplained in the human experience.  This is slippery territory, and it’s very easy to get tripped up on your own assumptions, it’s very easy to make mistakes—huge, retarded mistakes.

In short, UFOlogy is a great study to hone your critical thinking skills—and that’s what todays article will focus on, with some considerable help from our friend, Jacques Vallee.

In Vallee’s (insanely good and essential) book Revelations, he starts off by analyzing three of the bedrock foundations of the modern UFO mythology: the Majestic 12 documents, Area 51, and the Dulce underground base.  His conclusions are vastly more damning than any “skeptical” debunking article, because rather than beginning from the assumption that the claims are false, Vallee actually investigated with an open mind.
