Insightful rundown. I wonder what it will take to get a fresh lineup? Especially since there are plenty of newer personalities out there.

Kecksburg is coming up in July - maybe that’s your next installment?

Might make that journey, plus next year is the 60th anniversary of Kecksburg, maybe there will be something good from that. Would love to hear more from Stan Gordon, now there's a good lecture.

Great stuff! Thanks for sharing and wouldn't it be nice to have a nice, dry, nuts'n'bolts UFO Conference.

You know, not sure if I'd want that exactly, I liked the really far out there (but at least interesting and unique) stuff like Cosmic Ray. But certainly there needs to be a reckoning that bars too many retreads.

How many people would you estimate attended the conference? Sounds like a good number, if 40 were going to dinner. Do you think you'll attend more UFO conferences in the future?

Probably like 150 in total, oscillating in and out of the auditorium depending on speaker. Bill Birnes was most popular. I'd definitely attend another, I think it's pretty integral to get an understanding of where the UFO culture is at.
