The story is that "greys" are nothing but an invention...
This phenomenon is referred to in the report as "Buoyant Plasma Formation," akin to Ball Lightning, and is hypothesized to produce an unexplained energy field which creates the appearance of a Black Triangle by refracting light. The electromagnetic fields generated by plasma phenomena are also hypothesized to explain reports of close encounters due to inducing perceptual alterations or hallucinations in those affected.

The story is that "greys" are nothing but an invention to cover up government people in respirators. Yes, according to the story abductions are real, but not done by aliens.

Well, that's the key, right? Nightmares and dreams.
#SNIPPED'S# story is clever in that it provides all of the folks that have been mystified by their experiences with sleep-paralysis and temporal-lobe lability, like Streiber, a narrative framework within which to place their experiences wherein they are finally not being persecuted by ass-intruding aliens and demons and have, in fact, been made part of a solution to humanity's problems.
That's some insidious bull#, clever, but insidious.

I don't even know why this thing is exploding, since the actual original member is gone, and threads are months old. I find it amusing and a little odd that so many people feel so strongly about this, months after the thread was done and seemed to be nearly forgotten about.
Things that make me go "Hmmmmm"

When you talk about a "physical component" are you talking about scoop marks, bruises, needle marks and implants?
All of those could have been done by human beings disguised as alien entities to hide their true identities... The OP also indicated that costumes were used on occasion.
Have you ever experienced hypnosis? It's very powerful. Entire memories can be twisted and manipulated, or erased completely.
Just playing devil's advocate here.
For me the story while interesting is irrelevant, if the technological side is correct the story will form itself as the pieces are put together. The story might be used as a sort of framework to fit the pieces together while considering there might be a completely different framework, if that makes any sense, it did when I typed it.
...you could take a couple of dozens of abductions cases and you will find out that there's a physical component linked to them.
Trying to argument that abductions are just being 'artificial caused hallucinations' is just wrong, simply because the evidence obviously points to a different direction.
