The Big Study: WANAQUE, Part five: MIBs and Mothman make a Mess.

Entertaining, interesting, but oh so not "we-love-mothy" article, from The Big Study:

The Big Study: WANAQUE, Part five: MIBs and Mothman make a Mess.: Keel actually said in this talk that the military had left behind dozens of covered silos filled with high-explosive TNT. Now that statement [considering that the WVOW was entirely vacated of military security for more than a decade [almost two decades], is so preposterous that one wonders how any thinking person could utter it. Also, there was a "network of tunnels" underlying the whole complex.... what mysteries and dangers lurked there? { These "tunnels" were drainage sewers for two, yes dangerous, waste waters called "yellow and red water" which were contaminated "by-products" of the TNT making process --- my dad, who was "acid area supervisor", probably was the main culprit sending such wastes down these drains}. For Keel they were the possible home of the monster.

After himself terrorizing the audience with Mothman and the WVOW, Keel went on to say that many UFO incidents show hostility and that there are encounters where the entities attack people viciously. He then reflected upon Aime Michel's sane theory that all the occupants we see are robots, and spun that to give the impression that if these robots are confused in their tasks they might attack unthinkingly. Well, doubtless only the lady in the crowd who shouted Keel down insisting that Mothman was "An Angel" slept well that night.

Artist Kills 9,000 Butterflies: Damien Hirst Artwork Massacres Thousands of Butterflies

This is a story from October of 2012. Damien Hirst, artist, used butterflies -- ones he intentionally raised and personally killed for his project -- and exhibited the piece at the Tate Modern, which refused to condemn Hirst for his actions.

Artists who gratify their gratuitous blood lusts under the guise of being edgy and intellectual are full of shit.

Artist Kills 9,000 Butterflies: Damien Hirst Artwork Massacres Thousands of Butterflies (PHOTO): Damien Hirst allegedly commenced a butterfly massacre for his artwork "In and Out of Love," according to the Huffington Post.

The process of slaughtering so many butterflies was not an easy job; 23 year old Hirst killed about 400 butterflies a week for his piece of art.

The artwork was created for show at The Tate Modern, in an area of the art museum consisting of two rooms with no windows. Inside those rooms he placed hundreds of live butterflies, where they were trapped with no sunlight. Inside the room the butterflies would be swatted, trodden on, or simply left in there to die.

Cryptomundo: Mothman and Christmas

Like the Bigfoot phenomena, the high strangeness aspects of the Mothman phenomena are often dismissed by some researchers as not being of value, other than curiosities. Loren Coleman has a piece at Cryptomundo on Mothman, dreams, and the Christmas connection, but what I found interesting was his comment:
Cryptomundo Mothman and Christmas: Today the accounts are associated with all kinds of elements of occultism, demonology, and ufology, mostly due to how Keel told the tale. But cryptozoology underlies the initial reports, of course. [italics mine]

That's his assumption and opinion of course which many share, but there are those researchers, like Andy Colvin, who would disagree.

"We Are Watching You, Mr. Keel"

From 1967: a strange message left for John Keel when he was investigating Mothman. And for what it's worth, I tried uploading the video several times but it wouldn't go through. Gave up, so here's the link.
