Subject: NY State UFO Hotline
As of 3/23/98 New York State MUFON has instituted a new toll free
sightings hotline. That number is 1-888-311-9066 and can be
reached from anywhere in the US. It is hoped that associated
researchers and others interested in the UFO phenomenon circulate
the number as widely as possible to catch as many UFO reports as
possible.
"The hotline represents a new step for NY State MUFON" , said Jim
Bouck, State Section Director and longtime UFO researcher from
Schenectady. "The hotline is only one step in our continuing
efforts to reach out to the public and to other investigators and
investigative groups in an effort to work together on the UFO
problem. As a group, NY State MUFON is interested in doing as
many on- site investigations as possible and educating the
public, press and media about the UFO phenomenon. If we all work
together, we may indeed bring some collective intelligence to
bear upon the phenomenon."
Bouck also noted that Upstate New York has long been a hot-spot
for UFO activity dating from the early 50s. "Last year, " he
noted, "we had a major case at the end of May that took place
around Oneida Lake where two independent videos of long duration
were taken of UFOs hovering over the lake and over 40 other
witnesses testifying to the event. Investigators Bob Canino and
Dave Bodnar are still following up on leads and continuing that
investigation. Outside of the Phoenix Lights, it was one of the
most witnessed display of anomalous phenomenon during all of
1997."
The group also has a website under constrction, is planning a
newsletter and is in the midst of planning outreach events to
educate the general public about UFOs.
