Silo Depot

Stephen Bassett

Stephen Bassett took the stage about 90 minutes behind schedule due to some kind of issue with the live streaming (sorry Internet people – buy hey, Silo Depot is there for you).  In order to make up time, Bassett is dropping his presentation on Sunday and moving Gary Heseltine to his former slot.  Bassett’s remarks seem a little aggressive – probably due to the technical difficulties.  He’s talking about how the people who are here at the conference are in the UFO ghetto – no one wants to be seen with us.  But the pubic can watch the conference on the net, without having to be in public.  It’s an important point actually, and one we’ve made before here at the Depot – people won’t embrace this thing because it seems crazy.  If the streaming was working, they could watch from home without risking being seen or outed as a crazy.

E-mails aren’t getting through.  Is it an op?  Why isn’t the streaming working?  Is it an op?  Even the conspiracy conference is now wrapped in conspiracy.  Meta.

He’s offering to refund anyone’s money who is unsatisfied with the stream.

The Day Before Disclosure – Premiere Showing

This year’s conference began with a speaker’s reception and cocktail party followed by a screening of the documentary, The Day Before Disclosure directed by Terje Toftenes.  After everyone was sufficiently lubricated at the open bar, Stephen Bassett stepped to the stage to welcome the audience and warn us all to stay in the building until Mercury comes out of retrograde.  Bassett was both funny and passionate with regards to his favorite topic, disclosure – which he believes will happen shortly.  Personally I’d be surprised if disclosure ever happens, let alone soon.  He went to describe a brief history of the National Press Club – the location of this year’s conference – highlighting world leaders who have spoken there and boasting that we’re making history by discussing the ET/UFO topic in the very same space.

We finally got around to uploading all the images we snagged at the Bordentown UFO Congress last weekend. They’re unprocessed, so there will be some color and focus problems, along with some duplicated shots – but that’s what the next button is for.

Individual posts will have updated slideshows, or you can view them all below after the jump.

6:15pm: Mark Darling – “ Your Galactic Neighbors”

Mark Darling

The guy who’s been running the sound all weekend is giving us a background on higher-dimensional beings.  Ten millions years ago, Earth was planet of peace, where many different races lived and worked together.  We were a legend across the universe, until evil forces put an end to that.  Blah, blah, blah – aquatic apes from Vega colonized Earth.  I guess.  Then there was a big galactic war and about a million years ago, planets were destroyed, including the one that now makes up the asteroid belt.

5:15pm: Farah Yurdozu – “Love in an Alien Purgatory”

Farah Yurdozu

Yurdozu is definitely the most attractive speaker thus far.  A Spanish teacher by trade, this Turk has been exploring the UFO phenomena for about twenty years.  She’s giving a basic background on Turskish UFO sightings.  She also talks about the underground cities and wonders if they’re of alien design.

Again, technical issues creep up and prevent us from watching footage of UFOs.  It’s a little odd that people that study UFOs can’t operate computers or projectors.

12:15pm: George Haas – “Avian Geoglyphs on Mars”

George Haas

Haas founded the Cydonia Institute after becoming interested in the face on Mars.  His presentation is called Parrotopia and centers around a formation on Mars which resembles a parrot that is over a mile long.  The basic claim is that there is no way this shape could have occurred naturally, it must have been sculpted.  Of course the question becomes who created this and why?

10am: Nicholette Pavlevsky – “The Next Wave of ET Contact”

Nicholette Pavlevsky

This session started out as a bad sermon by one of those people who have had a fucked-up life and either turn to organized religion or conspiracy/ET theories to feel complete.  Standard story: vague hints of suffering and abuse but no actual examples, followed by an acceptance of all that has happened, and a new found zest for life.  Seize the moment.  Again, textbook speech on spirituality with just a bent towards contact.  Yep, there goes the part on opening up your chakras.   Continue reading

Day two started out in a smaller room – wonder if this was by plan or if there was just a lack of interest?  Either way people seemed ready to get started.  There was a quick survey to see if anyone had seen anything unusual in the sky in the past few months.  Strange lights did not garner any witnesses, but there were plenty of people who had seen chemtrails.

7:45pm: Joe Montaldo – “Types of Aliens and ET Contacts”

Joe Montaldo

Montaldo from ICAR gave a very disjointed but intriguing look at the various types of aliens that humans have encountered over the years.  It was a fun session, probably best summed up with more bullet points. Continue reading
