 So, you're going to contact a paranormal investigator... Consider this the end user guide to contacting someone to discuss an odd occurrence... which in some ways may be a bit unnecessary, but in others, it's long overdue. To be honest, I'm shocked that in well over a decade (since starting these websites,) it's something I haven't gotten around to until now. When someone decides to contact a paranormal group, investigator, or any of the like, the first question that should come to their mind is "Why?"... but the second is more important, and that's "What?" Some might assume I mean "Why am I contacting these people? What did I experience? Is what I have experienced worth the time?" (That last one is really kinda silly... If you're considering writing to or contacting someone, it's worth their time to listen to you... so don't hesitate.) No, the questions really should be "Why am I contacting these people? What do I expect them to do?" Different people can "do" different things for you... |

From a phenomenological standpoint, UFOs are perceived as being material, and they leave at times undeniable physical traces. The material aspect of UFOs constitutes, therefore, a fundamental characteristic of the phenomenon which must be integrated into any research about UFOs, ufological or otherwise. Having this key principle in mind, the following review of the literature about the materiality of UFOs is proposed. It is not presented, however, as a complete review of the literature, as many texts in ufology are quite difficult to find. Nevertheless, it is substantial enough to identify with a fair degree of reliability the main ideas about the materiality of UFOs in the literature.

The most important thing to remember about movies is that most are fiction and for entertainment purposes only. Unfortunately, a whole lot of people forgot that when the movie "Ghostbusters" was released. Although a delightful show, the movie did a huge disservice to a little something called "Ectoplasm". Prepare to have some common ideas set aside, if not shattered altogether.
Fastheath dictionary defines ectoplasm as "the outer relatively rigid granule-free layer of the cytoplasm usually held to be a gel reversibly convertible to a solid" or, the outer layer of protoplasm. |

Paranormal research "...is beset by True Believers ('They must be, therefore they are!') and True Unbelievers ('They can't be, therefore they aren't!') Rare are those who pursue evidence wherever it may lead, no matter how the results may square with their cherished hopes and dreams. Ironically, both the TBists and the TUists see themselves as champions of objective analysis and critical thinking, when in fact they are defenders of their respective faiths and, not incidentally, their egos."
