is a rare trait, not shared by the vast majority of contemporary humanity.
The average person feels threatened or terrified by any unprecedented
divergence from conventionally accepted norms of reality, and may react
with dangerous violence.
Let us consider the case of Herbert Schirmer, who in 1967 held the distinction
of being the youngest Chief of Police in Nebraska, and who was
one of the most prominent citizens in his home town of Ashland,
Nebraska. One night while on duty in his patrol car, he encountered a
large disc-shaped UFO, which had landed not far from the highway. When
a glowing humanoid figure appeared in his headlights, he tried to draw
his gun, but found himself inexplicably paralyzed. When the humanoid
opened the door of his car, Schirmer felt a cold hard instrument being
applied to the back of his neck, and he blacked out. Upon regaining consciousness,
he drove straight back to the police station and reported the
incident to his fellow officers, who noticed that he was unable to account
for about half an hour, There was an unusual welt on the back of his neck,
which later left a permanent scar. A qualified hypnotist, Dr. Leo Sprinkle,
was brought in to regress him back to the period of missing time. Under
hypnosis, the regression indicated that he had been taken aboard the UFO
and had communicated with a group of alien humanoids during the period
of missing time. A search of the location where the incident occurred
revealed physical landing traces.
How did Chief of Police Schirmer's old friends react to his adventure
By firing him from his job, dynamiting his car, and hanging and burning
him in effigy in the town square. His wife divorced him, and he was driven
out of town. He has since moved frequently, contacting various UFO
investigators, trying to make sense of his dilemma.
There is a remarkable resemblance between Herbert Schirmer's ordeal
and the Jeff Greenhaw case. In 1973, Jeff Greenhaw was the youngest
Chief of Police in Alabama, and was one of the most prominent citizens in
his home town of Falkville, Alabama. One night he received an anonymous
phone call from a woman who said that a UFO had just landed in a field
not far from town. Greenhaw got into his patrol car and drove toward that
area. As he approached the field, he encountered a humanoid about six feet
tall, covered from head to foot in metallic clothing, standing in the middle
of the road. Greenhaw pulled up near him and said: "Howdy, stranger."
There was no response. Greenhaw reached for a Polaroid camera he happened
to have with him and took four pictures. Then he turned on the flashing
blue light on the top of his patrol car. The humanoid began to run, but
not in normal fashion, moving sideways instead of forward, taking large
leaps of about ten feet at a time very quickly, traveling at extraordinary
speed. Greenhaw began to pursue him, but his patrol car suddenly went out
