The original secret is of little importance, its how it changes and becomes adept within the circle it was exposed to either willingly or not. It is obvious to me that UFO phenomenon DOES in fact manipulate society and its implications manipulate those in power so UFO does affect policy and people. Look at all these UFO New age movements and cults that have been springing up for the better portion of 100 years. Someones getting a message.
Oh I totally agree with that...
I guess I'm just trying to figure out how 'we', as few as we are, could have any effect on any of that (i.e. any effect on the 'manipulators').

It's probably because, since we haven't been able to fully define Vallee's meaning in "Control System", there hasn't been enough info to use for 'conjecturing' on the topic -
a system designed to maintain a parameter in the face of other, changing parameters, in order to systematize production goals

So, where did the feedback mechanism exist before the internet?
The GUT
I'm pretty sure that almost everyone who has been active in this thread understood Vallee's general inference as regards the phenomenon itself. Where it becomes enigmatic is just how--specifically--he might attempt to introduce "perturbations" into this theorized "control system."
Until Jacques decides to be more forthcoming, it's gonna continue to be somewhat of a guessing game. What I believe to also be important, is how those around him have interpreted/prostituted his thoughts for various schemas that revolve around the weaponization of social engineering and the kind of games the intelligence community play for myriad reasons.
We have a heap of b.s. that's been injected into ufology (and thusly mythology) that can provide, possibly, some "back-tracking" as to what's either going on behind the scenes...or maybe even possible future scenarios.
I would also proffer, once again, that UFO forums are a unique opportunity to try and influence the "system," and that we probably have seen evidence of that here and elsewhere in the ufological community.

We actually do know precisely what he means. It's defined rigorously. The problem is the words "control" and "system" have individual meanings which cloud the issue.

Bingo. We have the stories, we just need to figure out who the authors are.

I don't know that the Control System (or manipulators, we might say) are necessarily the "authors" of the stories...People make up stories (and promote them as true) all the time - my thinking is that the manipulators are attracted to stories with certain parameters (perhaps ones with greater numbers of 'believers'?) and then propagate those stories by manifesting phenomena...
The GUT
I've mentioned it before, but one seemingly very important part of Vallee's theory that has went basically undiscussed is how he ties it to human consciousness just about every time he has spoken/written about it. How do we decipher that and put it into context? It suggests--as far as I can figure--some very Jungian-esque qualities.
Col. Alexander also makes the same point in his rip-off of Vallee with his PSP (Pre-cognizant Sentient Phenomena) and ties the whole phenomenon to human consciousness as well.
How would a totally separate and outside influence tie into human consciousness unless the assertion being made is that we are somehow co-creators or some such with it?

Brotherman - I'd be interested in seeing your stuff. I think you've reached similar conclusions to myself on this stuff.
What if the phenomena changed 'shape' again - what are people seeing instead of flying saucers?
