cage. It seemed to get a reaction, but still no communication. 1 decided to
return to the physical for orientation and start again.
Back into the physical was achieved simply, by thought of return. Opened
physical eyes, all was fine, swallowed to wet my dry throat, closed my eyes,
let the warmth surge up, then used the same roll-out technique. This time, I
let myself float to the floor beside the cot. I fell slowly, and could feel myself
passing through the various EEG wires on the way down. I touched the floor
lightly, then could "see" the light coming through the open doorway to the
outer EEG rooms. Careful to keep "local," I went under the cot, keeping in
slight touch with the floor, and floating in a horizontal position, finger tips
touching the floor to keep in position, 1 went slowly through the doorway. I
was looking for the technician, but could not find her. She was not in the
room to the right (control console room), and I went out into the brightly
lighted outer room. I looked in all directions, and suddenly, there she was.
However, she was not alone. A man was with her, standing to her left as she
faced me.
I tried to attract her attention, and was almost immediately rewarded with a
burst of warm joy and happiness that I had finally achieved the thing we had
been working for. She was truly excited, and happily and excitedly embraced
me. I responded, and only slight sexual overtones were present which I was
nearly able to disregard. After a moment, I pulled back, and gently put my
hands on her face, one on each cheek, and thanked her for her help.
However, there was no direct intelligent objective communication with her
other than the above. None was tried, as I was too excited at finally achieving
the separation and staying "local."
I then turned to the man, who was about her height, with curly hair, some of
which dropped over the side of his forehead. I tried to attract his attention, but
was unable to do so. Again, reluctantly, I decided to pinch her gently, which I
did. It did not evoke any response that I noticed. Feeling something calling for
a return to the physical, I swung around and went through the door, and
slipped easy back into the physical. Reason for discomfort: dry throat and
throbbing ear.
After checking to see that the integration was complete, that I "felt" normal in
all parts of the body, I opened my eyes, sat up, and called to the technician.
She came in, and I told her that 1 had made it finally, and that I had seen her,
however, with a man. She replied that it was her husband.
I asked if he was outside, and she replied thai he was, that he came to stay
with her during these late hours. I asked why I had not seen him before, and
