How many patients in your mental institution claim to be from another world?


You might want to have a little looky over here...

Kenneth! What't the Frequency Kenneth?!!!

EDIT to add: There's one example anyway, and my most bizarre thread to date.

Interesting thread.
I've posted a link to it in my blog.

Speaking of which... does anyone have any NEW information (= possible explanations) about the Bennington disappearances?

They would probably warrant a thread of their own, but these days I have difficulties in keeping up with the pace of posting here as it is...

I just posted to you in another forum and someone brought this thread to my attention. They actually thought that I may have misposted because he saw a distinct tie to the two.
Anyway what I will say is this with 'all' of the missing persons yearly in the world and how the coverups work, is that yes we get daily amber alerts to warn people to be on the look out for missing people but then eventually the names fad into the abyss of lost souls never to be spoken of again in public domain, that is unless they fall into the minute category of those that have families desperately trying to raise public awareness through the media. They too usually end up on the forgotten list after so much time and you never hear of it again.
Now with all the missing people dont you think that by now we would see and hear people on every corner of the planet shouting out for their lost loved ones? Why is this conspiracy so deeply shadowed in the depths of secrecy that we are not faced with a huge out cry on a regular basis?
There is most certainly something so despicable, so evil that the public the general public is simply numb to its reality.
Have you heard of the children in Florida that were lost somehow in the Foster system? Their was one woman that spoke out not long ago about how she had worked in the system for many years and when she refused to turn a deaf ear to the situation and a nudge nudge wink wink, she was fired and not only fired but brought up on some trumped up charges to be made an example of. Now somehow she had one of her coworkers come forward as the sentance was being prepared, and it saved her butt. However it did not find the missing children or bring light to the situation, just served as a warnig to any that oppose. Where are the families? Why are they not pounding down the doors of the state capitol together? Big questions going unanswered here and it is hight ime someone brought this thread forward. Thanks Sky.

10,000,000 looks like a big number, but if you scatter that ten million throughout a big world with approaching 7 BILLION (that's 7,000,000,000.... or seven thousand million, 1 out of every 700 people on average), it's really simple to misplace 1 in 700 things.... but what about people, who all have separate paths in which they choose to follow? Let's say half of those people are found every year.... the remaining number you are left with is something like 1 in every 14,000 people go missing and stay missing every year. Let's take into consideration that maybe approx. half of those missing that stay missing are eventually either found dead or are alive and living a new identity (are explainable). That leaves us with 1 in every 28,000 people missing and never found again with no explanation worldwide.

Honestly, that's a pretty tame number, compared to other species death/dissapearance rates goes.

Given how big the world is, how wreckless humanity is, how hard people are willing to look for one single person lost on planet Earth, it could be any number of naturally occuring things. It could be unsolved crimes, unseen accidents, unaccounted for people, many many relatively mundane things that we all know happen.

With that number as high as it is, and as easy as it is to slip one in 28,000 people away without much effect on the community or the function of society, it's also very easy to imagine a clandestine operation scooping people up at random and taking them deep within the Earth (which is almost unexplored) to do very cruel and unusual things to them in the name of advancing knowledge for certain clandestine individuals.

Keep in mind these calculations were rough, as they came right off the top of my head... but people forget just how many of us are skittering around here on the surface of this planet, which is a very big size for a solid planetoid, compared to others. We're not even considering all the space there is underneath our feet, underneath our oceans, in our mountain ranges, all this potential space for people and creatures to hide and/or be hidden. You could hide the entire human population from sight in cave systems alone!

Don't underestimate the ability to keep things hidden.

Ha, Mr. Telford/Tetford/Tedford is the main attraction of my today's entry...
(I'll write some more about the Vermont disappearances tomorrow. Although at least one of them, the most famous one, seems to me more like a perfect crime than anything else...)

Is there nobody from Vermont here?
Nobody familiar with the "Long Trail" or its stories...?


And BTW, I do know of a few disappearances myself. I have not witnessed them, but they are real disappearances, not "urban legends" or anything.

My mother, however, almost-witnessed a real vanishing when she was a child: a beggar who had been talking to her disappeared in the time it took her to turn around (a few seconds).

Strange but true. :-)

Come to think of it, how do I know that I still reside in my original reality if the difference between the realities are almost unnoticeable?
