The Pine Bush Anomaly Archive
TM
Its characteristic feature is a constant factor of absurdity that leads to a rejection of the story by the upper layers of the target society and an absorption at a deep unconscious level of the symbols conveyed by the encounter.
-Jacques Vallee
This page will host reports on the progress of the Archive, as well as essays on the topic of anomalies. For current news on reported unusual activity in the Pine Bush area, please go to www.pinebushufo.com, as well as tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/pinebushufo.
Two topics are planned for essays in 2008, the first being the fascination with anomalous experiences verses the stigma attached to them by “proper society”. The value of inspiration gained by experiencing something one interprets as unusual regardless of the objective cause of the experience will be discussed.
The second topic concerns what the term “supernatural” means in the twenty first century, when supposed super-normal phenomena are being investigated with high-tech equipment. The essay will also take a look at the recent rise of belief in “paranormal” topics, and the decline of interest in science in American society, wondering whether the claims of a correlation between the two are accurate and if so, an inevitable social dynamic.
