I found this stuff while searching for information on Senator Pell. I can't guarantee I copied all of it, but I can guarantee I didn't make any of this up! --The Madwoman http://www.marsweb.com/~watcher/uforocke.html Rockybucks All Around [Rockefeller Funds UFO, Alien Research & Gaii / Eco Projects] Laurence Rockefeller has been splashing out substantial sums of money (aka 'Rockybucks') to prominent UFO/alien researchers and fringe research foundations. He has channelled (pardon the pun) money into Dr. John Mack, the Harvard psychiatrist famous for his book on so-called 'alien abductions'. Laurence is alleged, based on well substantiated rumours and published information, to have also made a contribution of prestige and perhaps money to help Dr. Mack resist efforts at Harvard to censure him for his 'alien abduction' beliefs. At a meeting of the Rhode Island Mutual UFO Network (MUFON), Mack likened the abductee experience to that of an endangered animal being hunted and temporarily debilitated in order to be moved to a safe place. The animal does not know that it is being "hurt" for its own good, for the survival of its species. Mack believes the 'greys' (aliens) are trying to tell us in a cryptic way -- through the abduction experience -- our species is in danger. In order to save us from extinction, they are playing God by doing some evolutionary tinkering with our DNA. Greens and Greys [Linking Alien Presence to Environmentalism] "... intelligences of the highest power are absolutely appalled that this one species is so out of control, so insensitive to the living ecosystem of the earth..." -- Dr. John Mack, Harvard Psychiatrist Mack also managed to link ufology and ecology -- another of Laurence's longtime causes, which is quite a paradox considering it's no big secret Nelson Rockefeller -- a dynasty patriarch -- singlehandedly destroyed the Amazon! Then again, times change and so do strategies if you want to stay ahead of the rest. (Even if Laurence was on a guilt trip for past family excesses -- and it is customary for the megarich to make token endowments to "liberal" social causes -- his current endowments are rather strange. Mack's bridge between UFOs and ecology is evident in a recent book of articles compiled by the Sierra Club. Entitled Ecopsychology, Mack asks: "How do we invent a new psychology of our relationship to the earth?" Critics accuse Mack of founding a new religion in the "green politics" of the aliens. His response that he "cannot help it if this is the communication coming through," digests well with Laurence who concurs with the aliens that we must immediately stop destroying our precious earth. Mack states "it's not as if there's no truth to the warning" adding that this message comes through to people who are "not environmentally sophisticated." Still on the ecology front, Laurence Rockefeller also funds the Green Earth Foundation headed by Terence McKenna. McKenna scouts the globe collecting psychoactive plants, which he is permitted to cultivate in Hawaii. One of McKenna's theories is that psychoactive substances used by native cultures in religious ceremonies induce telepathic links with alien cultures. He believes the patriarchal "dominator" cultures of the past few thousand years have failed us and the earth, and calls for an "archaic revival", which requires a return to humanity's last "sane" moment 15,000 years ago on the plains of Africa "rocked in the cradle of the great horned mushroom goddess." Another of Rockefeller's UFO-related activities is his close cooperation with the low-profile BSW Foundation, headed by wealthy New Yorkers Sandra Wright Houghton and Bootsy Galbraith. They, too, both embrace the view shared by Rockefeller that the earth is being visited primarily by benevolent ETs who pose no threat to the established order. Human Potential Foundation [Global Mind - Change Potential] The Human Potential Foundation (HPF), founded by U.S. Senator Claiborne Pell and based in Falls Church, Virginia, is another project funded primarily by Laurence Rockefeller. According to Dick Farley, who worked for the organisation for about three years, Rockefeller's interest in HPF seemed to be the promotion of "alternative religious and psychiatric/psychological paradigms, including so-called 'UFOs' and 'abductions,' having 'Global Mind Change' potentials. Rockefeller put more than $700,000 through the 'HPF' from 1991 to 1994, as Common Cause Magazine recently reported." The President of HPF, 'retired' naval intelligence officer Cdr. C.B. "Scott" Jones, Ph.D., was a contractual consultant to the Defense Nuclear Agency (1981-1985) before next working for Senator Pell as Special Assistant (1985-1991), ostensibly looking after Pell's "paranormal" interests (Jones is also listed in John Mack's book alongside Laurence Rockefeller). The Human Potential Foundation stages conferences like last year's gathering of luminaries that included author and investigative reporter Ruth Montgomery, UFO author and psychologist Leo Sprinkle, transpersonal and para-psychologist Charles Tart, native American historian Paula Underwood, environmental activist Don Ware, futurist John Petersen, orientalist and author Zecharia Sitchin, psychiatrist and author John Mack, clinical researcher Richard Boylan, editor of Omni Magazine Keith Ferrell, founder of CONTACT James Funaro, Director of United Nations University Jerome Glenn, and others. Entitled "When Cosmic Cultures Meet," the conference dealt with a range of interesting subject matter. Joan d'Arc of Newspeak, who attended the conference, said the problem she found with "the 'Have-You-Hugged-Your-Gray-Today' school generally prevailing at the HPF conference is nobody was saying perhaps ETs and abduction experiences are very bad news." And whose job will it be to make official contact with our space helpers? Joan was handed a questionnaire at the HPF conference that asked attendees to place in order of importance which government/military bodies should be given the job. No doubt the chosen body will also announce the arrival of our space brothers. They are apparently a little shy when it comes to human interaction, choosing instead to 'abduct' and study us on an individual basis. All Laurence's pet projects contain a familiar theme: Aliens are here to help us, perhaps aid us along the evolutionary ladder. Is it a case of he who pays the piper calls the tune? Now, this being the case, Laurence (their roving ambassador) is doing the right thing by the aliens and polishing their public image. Next comes the announcement of their presence, which presently requires some effort to "condition" the masses for this mind-blowing revelation. If this theory holds, a gradualist introduction to the aliens is happening right now. The process of gradualism being the form of social conditioning favored by such ruling class Rockefeller-dominated world planners as the Council on Foreign Relations, the Bilderberg Society and the Trilateral Commission. UFO researcher Glenn Campbell in his Groom Lake Desert Rat newsletter No. 30 proposes the following: "Let us suppose that the UFO cover-up is real and the government is neither dumb nor nefarious... The panic associated with the War of the Worlds radio broadcast of 1938 still impressed the memories of those in power. A determination was made by competent authorities that the populace was not yet ready for the news, or perhaps that the news was not ready for them. More time was needed for experts to study the problem -- both the aliens themselves and the possible public reaction -- and to prepared a plan. This might be a very long-term plan.... "The goal of gradual release would be to acclimate the population emotionally to the form and ideas of the alien presence without triggering a total release. This can probably be done more effectively by selective fictions than by truth, because fictions can be controlled. A hoax need contain only that portion of the truth which is ready to be introduced to public. The rest can be a fabrication, just persuasive enough to get it distributed on the Fox network. Indeed, some part of the story must ultimately fall apart to assure it doesn't go too far, as the hoax must eventually be dispelled to make room for a larger truth." To further bolster this theory, on the weekend of March 18-19, 1995, with no prior announcement, the Walt Disney Company conducted a sneak telecast of a UFO documentary in five U.S. states: Connecticut, Tennessee, Alabama, Florida and California. This amazing documentary, featuring CEO Michael Eisner (another prominent member of the ruling elite), put the Disney reputation behind many startling statements such as these: "Mankind is in the midst of the most profound event in history: Actual contact with intelligent life from other planets. "Intelligent life from distant galaxies is now attempting to make open contact with the human race, and tonight we'll show you the evidence. "From beyond the boundaries of our perceptions, intelligent beings are beckoning mankind to join the galactic community. It's an invitation which is both wondrous and terrifying. "Alien ships seem to arrive in waves and, if the last few years are any indication, planet Earth is experiencing a tsunami of sightings. "As early as 1947, the large alien ships began to arrive, navigated by living creatures. Their advanced physics allowed them to traverse the galaxy and pierce Earth's atmosphere with amazing speed. More than one alien craft crashed and was recovered for secret U.S. military research. "This is the actual site where the Roswell saucer was discovered along with the bodies of three extraterrestrial missionaries who didn't survive the collision. The debris and the dead were impounded and taken away for top-secret study, while a classified investigative committee, called the Majestic 12, was organized by President Truman and a government cover-up was initiated with a calculated disinformation campaign. "For governments determined to maintain their authority, extra-terrestrial contact is pure dynamite. "When [Jimmy Carter] assumed the office of President of the United States, his staff attempted to explore the availability of official investigations into alien contact. As this internal government memo illustrates, there are some security secrets outside the jurisdiction of the White House. "In November of 1975, essentially every SAC [Strategic Air Command] base in the United States was visited by UFOs. "Indications are that government, military and scientific leaders will soon release nearly a half-century of official documentation of ongoing alien encounters on Earth. "Statistics indicate a greater probability that you'll experience extraterrestrial contact in the next five years than the chances that you will win a state lottery. "[Most] Americans will likely explore outer space aboard crafts of alien origin." Many UFO researchers feel that Disney's "stealth" documentary broadcasts were tests of the public's ability to handle the revelation of an alien reality and the government cover-up.
