MUFON of Ohio Spring Conference Review
May 15, 2010

MUFON of Ohio brought to Ashland,Ohio, three of the most well respected researchers in UFOlogy and the turnout was tremendous! Ted, Stan, and John gave excellent presentations, sharing their experiences and current cases with the capacity crowd. Some attendees drove from as far as New York, Michigan, and Missouri to attend. UFO collectibles and publications were available for purchase as well as food and snacks.

A Summary of Their Presentations and Web links for Stan, Ted and John:


Stan Gordon: Stan Gordon's UFO Anomolies Zone

Stan gave the crowd an overview of his research activities in Pennsylvania and surrounding states since 1965 including his far reaching experiences in UFO and Bigfoot investigations. His observations included possible links between the two phenomena based on his extensive investigative experiences. He reviewed the Kecksburg PA UFO crash, providing additional details not easily available to the public including photos and eyewitness accounts supporting the theory that the crashed object was not a known object, was intelligently controlled, and that a major cover-up of the event occurred. Stan offered signed copies of his new book, Really Mysterious Pennsylvania: UFOs, Bigfoot, and Other Weird Encounters. His book is also available from his web site as well as many public venues. Based on his presentation, it is certainly a must read for anyone interested in an in depth look at the UFO and Bigfoot phenomena.

Ted Phillips: Ted Phillips' Center for Physical Trace Research

Ted is a veteran UFO investigator specializing in trace evidence and did not dissapoint the crowd, sharing his investigative experiences, including his work with Dr. J. Alan Hynek during and after the Project Bluebook years. He provided fascinating details of his current, ongoing investigations of the Marley Woods phenomena including photographic and video evidence. He demonstrated how the Marley Woods phenomena shows striking similarities to the Skinwalker Ranch (Utah) phenomena that have occurred in recent years. He provided new insights into the Delphos, Kansas UFO landing event on which he did extensive studies of witness accounts and traces left from the reported CE4 event. His investigations and evidence point toward the possiblity of a UFO experiencing mechanical difficulties, leading to the eyewitnessed landing in a Kansas farmer's field. Ted is currently preparing a book for publication of his ongoing investigations. More details of his extensive research can be found at his web site.

John Ventre: 12/21/2012: A Prophecy

In an era wrought with media sensationalism, John brought into focus the myriad myths and beliefs regarding the "2012" doomsday scenario. John presented, in detail, the origins of this "cultural" phenomenon; examining what may or may not actually happen on the alledged fateful date of 12/21/2012. He presented the hard realities of possible events that could occur leading to a major earth change based on known phenomena including volcanic eruptions, climate change and meteoric impact. John also examinded the origins of the myths surrounding 2012 as described by various cultures, seers, and scientists. John's book, 12/21/2012: A Prophecy, while being fictionally set, ties together his observations and insights into the "doomsday" scenario. His book is available from his website, as well as many retail venues. John is also the State Director for MUFON in Pennsylvania and West Virginia and more information on their ongoing research is available from their websites.

Q & A Session

A fascinating question and answer session followed the speakers' presentations which included the presenters as well as Phyllis Budinger of Frontier Analysis Ltd. (a noted reseach laboratory specializing in UFO related trace evidence testing and analysis) and Bill Jones, the State Director of MUFON of Ohio. It was a lively interaction between the panelists and attendees ranging on subjects from the Bigelow Foundation's involvement in UFO research to the "miracle' of Fatima. The interactions of speakers and audience actually caused the event to run far beyond its alloted time!
