UFO Times Number 28 March/April 1994

This document is the March/April 1994 issue (Number 28) of 'UFO Times', a publication of the British UFO Research Association (BUFORA). The issue serves as a forum for various perspectives on UAP, ranging from scientific and theoretical discussions to theological and speculative interpretations. A central theme in this issue is the reconciliation between BUFORA and the Witness Support Group (WSG), with the editor, Ken Phillips, advocating for a focus on the close-encounter experience despite internal disagreements. The magazine features several articles: Gordon Millington explores the 'UFOs as evil' hypothesis, examining fundamentalist Christian perspectives that equate UFO occupants with demons. T.E. Beardon provides a technical, albeit speculative, discussion on 'free energy' and electromagnetic potential gradients. Gerard Surflete discusses the 'Embargo Hypothesis', suggesting that extraterrestrial intelligence may be observing humanity and withholding contact until we reach a certain level of maturity. Robert France continues his series 'The Shadow of Man', blurring the lines between physical abduction and psychic contactee experiences, and questioning the nature of alien manipulation of the human mind. Dr. Harley A. Byrd contributes a controversial piece titled 'Transmigration of the Greys', claiming that extraterrestrial entities are being subjected to an 'ELF (Electronic Low Frequency) Programme' by the U.S. government and relocated to Puerto Rico and Brazil. The issue also includes a summary of UFO reports submitted to the UK Ministry of Defence for 1993, noting a total of 255 reports, and provides information on how to access related files at the Public Record Office. The 'Readers Write' section highlights significant internal debate within the UFO community regarding the role of BUFORA, the validity of abduction research, and the potential for UFO belief to become a cult-like religion. The magazine concludes with reviews of books and films, including 'Fire in the Sky', and a diary of upcoming events, including a change of lecture venue to Westminster University.
