How To Foil An Alien Abduction
Illustration by Steve Karp

You're driving along a dark, deserted road when suddenly a UFO
appears overhead in front of you. You pull over just as a beam
of light radiates from the craft, and you can see five gray-
colored aliens descending in the beam. You get out of your car
for a closer look. Uh-oh! The aliens are rapidly moving toward
you, and you think that you're going to be abducted. What should
you do?

Do not panic.
The extraterrestrial biological entity (EBE) may sense your fear
and act rashly.

Control your thoughts.
Do not think of anything violent or upsetting--the EBE may have
the ability to read your mind. Try to avoid mental images of
abduction (boarding the saucer, body probes, etc.). Such images
may encourage the alien to take you.

Resist verbally.
Firmly tell the EBE to leave you alone. If you're desperate, try
and sell it a life insurance policy--that usually repels humans,
and it may also work on EBEs.

Resist mentally.
Picture yourself enveloped in a protective shield of white light
or in a safe place. Picture the EBE handcuffed and behind bars
or being audited by the IRS. Telepathic EBEs may get the
message.

Resist physically.
Physical resistance should be used only as a last resort. Go for
the EBE's eyes (if it has any). You will not know what its
other, more sensitive areas are.
