BUFORA Bulletin No. 11, November 1983

This document is the November 1983 issue (No. 11) of the BUFORA Bulletin, the official publication of the British UFO Research Association. The bulletin provides a comprehensive overview of the association's activities, including the 1983 Third International UFO Congress held in August at Lane End, near High Wycombe. The congress featured presentations from notable figures such as Dr. J. Allen Hynek, Stanton Friedman, and Dr. Hartley Rutledge, covering topics ranging from the Extraterrestrial Hypothesis (ETH) to radar analysis and the 'window area' phenomenon. The bulletin also details internal organizational changes, including the resignation of Ian Mrzyglod and the subsequent closure of the 'PROBE REPORT' journal, with plans to increase the page count of the 'BUFORA BULLETIN' and 'J-TAP' to compensate. Administrative reports from the Chairman, Robert S. Digby, and the Treasurer, Hans Streuli, highlight the financial challenges faced by the association due to the economic recession, while emphasizing a commitment to maintaining a scientific, impartial stance in UFO research. The bulletin includes summaries of lectures, such as Dr. Sue Blackmore's talk on 'UFOs and Hallucinations' and Paul Devereaux's research on 'Earthlights.' Additionally, it provides notice for the Eighth Annual General Meeting scheduled for December 10, 1983, and includes a 'Letters to the Editor' section where members debate the association's investigative priorities, specifically regarding the Rendlesham Forest incident and the focus on 'high-grade' versus 'low-grade' cases. The document serves as a record of the association's administrative, research, and investigative efforts during the 1982-1983 session.
