Steven, it really helps not to have a ready made explanation, such as
you have, when evaluating the UFO events. Such expected notions cause
a person to reject data, perhaps subconsciously. For example, you
would like the phenomenon to involve some kind multi-dimensional
reality. You then ignore all physical evidence showing that the
events are happening in our dimension exactly like any event that we
experience in normal life. For example, objects have been implanted
during an abduction that were later removed by a doctor. These objects
are real. Changes have have been found in the retina of the eye when a
person has been near one of the crafts during landing. Apparently the
intense microwave radiation causes permanent damage. In fact, this is
one way the UFO investigators can tell if a person is telling the
truth. Women have been found to be pregnant, as verified by a doctor,
and then are not pregnant for no apparent reason after an abduction.
Like most of the reported observations, these can be ignored in an
effort to avoid believing the events are real. Actually, it does not
matter what an individual believes about this subject because the
events will take place regardless of what we believe. We have no
control. Perhaps, it is best to ignore the whole subject and go about
life without the resulting anxiety.
As for David Jacobs, if you read his books you will learn that many
people remember the abductions in great detail without need for
hypnosis. Their memories are very similar to the retrieved memories.
In fact, Jacobs is very aware of the problems associated with hypnosis
and takes great pains to avoid them. Raising such issues is like the
skeptics who question the reality of CF using problems that every
person in the field understands better than the skeptic and takes
great pains to avoid.

From Mr. Blanton,
There are distinct physical aspects common among many experiencers
which are known by investigators but are not shared with the public.
It serves as a test of the experience. It has to do with the
surroundings seen by the victim and certain events that occur during
the "examination".
AFAIK, investigators have yet to disclose all of these aspects; but,
they do point to either a real, physical event or one heck of a
cosmic
unconscious sharing experience.
It's my understanding that several UFO abduction researchers such as
David Jacobs are tackling this very subject. This is serious work and
I applaud their efforts to compile such information.
I also gather some researchers disapprove of researcher's, like
Jacob's apparent heavy use of hypnotic recall (in the repetitive
sense) to collect their information. For example, Don Schmitt (Roswell
investigator) and others caution that excessive-repetitive use of
hypnotic recall can possibly lead to contamination of the original
details. As Jed Rothwell has every right to bring to our attention,
the process of manufacturing false memories is relatively easy to
administer.
There are several personal thoughts that come to mind when I ponder
the similarities of the shared experience, including certain "tags"
that for the most part are not yet revealed to the general public:
*) Maybe vast portions of the human race really *are* being abducted,
in the most literal 3-D physical sense that one can think. However,
based on my own conversations and readings, many
abductees/experiencers themselves no longer believe their encounters
are occurring strictly in the physical sense, preferring to describe
their encounters as an interface with a multi-dimensional reality.
From what I can tell more emotionally adjusted and educated the
experiencer seems to be, the more likelihood are the chances that they
WILL both perceive and subsequently interpret their encounters as
occurring within the realms of a vast multi-dimensional environment.
IOW, their experiences are less "absolute" or "lieral" in nature.
Needless to say, current scientific investigative skills are
ill-equipped in tackling such "multi-dimensional" investigations.
*) Maybe we are being treated to a sophisticated symbolic language of
experiential archetypes, as described in my previous fable where I
play around with the premise of an advanced race attempting to
"interface" with us through the use of rote repetitive imagery.
*) Maybe we are in contact with vase untapped "alienated" portions of
ourselves that are attempting to reestablish contact with the more
acceptable portions of ourselves. Perhaps such encounters/experiences
also hint as to the incredible depth of our untapped potential as
explored in Carl Jung's research into the "collective unconscious".
* Maybe it's a little of all of the above.
