ON THE MOVE
While we all realize that the world of BBSing is a fun hobby,
ParaNet takes a fun hobby and makes it more exciting!
ParaNet Information Service is the world's largest investigative
news organizations to ever come to your home. Now you can get
up-to-the-minute news and information on one of the most
mysterious phenomena and paranormal events in human history --
UFOs. For over forty years Unidentified Flying Objects have
intrigued some of the finest minds in the world.
Michael Corbin, ParaNet's Owner and Director, states, "People
have always wondered about the implications that UFOs pose not
only to mankind, but to science and technology. This phenomenon
is one of the most misunderstood that faces us."
Over the years the governments of the world have collected data,
artifacts, and have conducted scientific research, but the
information disappears into a shroud of secrecy held by
government officials.
Officially, the U.S. Air Force got out of the UFO business in
1969 with the death of Project Blue Book, a military-headed UFO
investigation group spanning many years of the present-day
mystery. Although the government continues to contend that UFOs
do not exist, recent efforts by Citizens Against UFO Secrecy,
a group of concerned citizens headed by Larry Fawcett of
Conneticut, have uncovered previously classified documents
through the Freedom of Information Act dating after 1969's Blue
Book death that clearly displays that the government continues to
study UFOs. All the while, the nation is kept in the dark about
the true aspects of this mystery by virtue of a silent policy
held by the nation's media.
"Many people would be surprised to know how much is actually
going on today. But, the media fails to report on it," says
Corbin.
Enter ParaNet. Since its inception over three years ago, it has
developed relationships with the scientific and investigative
community and funnels this information to the public via its
international electronic computer network. ParaNet also has an
investigative branch headed by Robert B. Klinn, an investigator
with over 25 years experience and was an associate of Dr. J.
Allen Hynek, considered to be a world leader in UFOlogy. Klinn
also has been credited with locating and tracking down hard to
investigate cases and has received acknowledgment in Len
Stringfield's book Situation Red. For over three years, Klinn
co-authored a syndicated newspaper column -- The Continuing UFO.
This background greatly enhances ParaNet's ability to investigate
incoming cases through its international reporting center, which
is manned 24-hours per day.
Recently, ParaNet expanded its network operations into the world-
wide Unix environment and currently publishes an electronic news
digest containing its daily echomail traffic. This digest and
other information is available to over 61,000 users not to
mention Compuserve Information Service which has a user base of
over 400,000 world-wide.
"It's an electronic revolution," Corbin stated. "Through our
international reporting center we can take a report, assign
investigators and place a report on the network. Thousands of
our subscribers can be in touch and know what is going on
virtually instantly."
ParaNet has also expanded beyond the electronic environment and
has established relationships with UFO organizations such as the
Australian UFO Research Society, the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON),
and the Center for UFO Studies (CUFOS).
ParaNet has so much to offer. Beside having the ability to
interact with luminaries such as Phil Imbrogno, author of Night
Siege (Hudson Valley UFOs), Dr. Bruce Maccabee, Navy physicist
and photographic expert, and thousands of interested subscribers,
ParaNet has a vast electronic library containing news clippings,
articles submitted by subscribers, and one of the most
comprehensive research libraries found anywhere on matters of
science, religion and other topics. Recently, ParaNet introduced
a bi-monthly publication called Oddysey.
