"Underground Base" conference in Dulce in March, 2009!!

The first "Underground Base" conference is tentatively scheduled to be
held in the town of Dulce, New Mexico next March. This unprecedented
gathering in the town of Dulce will take place on Sunday, March 29,
timed right in with the Aztec UFO Conference 2009 which will be held
on March 27 and 28 in Aztec, New Mexcio, an hour and a half away from
Dulce. In the Aztec Conference I am privileged to present the topic:
REALITIES BEHIND THE STATE OF MIND: AREA 51 AND DULCE.
As for the Dulce "Underground Base" Conference (Sunday, March 29), it
will be held at the Best Western Jicarilla Inn. The conference room,
unfortunately, can accommodate only about 25 people the most, but,
with extra chairs, it is possible to squeeze in about 35 people.
Anyway this one-day conference in Dulce, which will start at 10 a.m.,
is entitled: DULCE BASE, FACT OR FICTION?
We are planning, of course, to invite some of the residents of Dulce,
including the families of former police chief, Raleigh Tafoya, along
with the families of former Forest Ranger Dispatcher of Dulce, all of
whom I got to know last year upon my second visit to Dulce.
The conference will be open to the publc-at-large of Dulce, as well.
The decision to have a public announced "underground base" conference
right in the town of Dulce came about because of the success of a 1991
Area 51 conference in Rachel, Nevada in which we invited the public-at-
large, including anyone affiliated with the Groom Lake complex itself.
That conference drew about 95 people, some of whom (anonymous, of
course) could very welll have been affiliated with the base.
Similarly, in 1998 the first People's Rally at Area 51 was held right
at the boundary line on Groom Lake road. It drew about 200 people
from all over the U.S. as well as a few from Canada. It became a
major news item in the Las Vegas Review Journal:

Within seven years of the Rally, the government admitted that the base
exists officially and just last year, the government announced that
compensation will be made to the workers who suffered from illness due
to toxic chemicals.
Dulce, however, is a different story. So far, there has not been any
solid, physical evidence whatsoever that there is a base near Dulce,
such as deep under the Archuleta Mesa. It has all been hearsay. In
fact, I would say that most of the 4000 townsfolk there do not believe
that there is an underground base there. But, when it comes to UFOs,
most of the population there believe in the sightings, since beginning
with the mid-70's and lasting till the mid-80's, the entire town of
Dulce was overwhelmed by frequent sightings of strange lights over the
town. Not only that but many ranchers in the nearby communities began
to report mysterious cattle mutilations during that time. Many Dulce
officials attended the first Cattle Mutilations conference in
Albuquerque in 1978, including then police chief, Raleigh Tafoya.
It was sometime during the mid-80s that rumors of an underground base
surfaced…and still continues to this day, so much so that the entire
town of Dulce has become associated with the alleged "underground
base". Just do a google search on Dulce, New Mexico and one can get
untold number of items relevant to this topic.
Is the town of Dulce bothered by this unusual association with
"underground base"? Probably, although the bulk of the townsfolk
seem to take it all with a grain of salt. I have my own wild theory
on this subject:
WAS DULCE, NEW MEXICO, A NUCLEAR WASTE DUMPING GROUND?

Upon my second visit to Dulce last year, I was quite surprised that in
the gift shop at the Best Western Jicarilla Inn, there were a few T-
shirts that said "Dulce, Home of the Underground Base", or something
to that effect. In other words, some officials there may not mind if
more people come there to spend some money, for example, at the casino
there or for purchasing fishing and hunting licenses. Will it be good
for a little tourism? However, will this conference put an end, once
and for all, that there are no underground bases in or near Dulce? It
will be fascinating.
The Inn will allow the use of the meeting room for a full day....and
the entire total cost of the use of the meeting room is only $75.
Therefore, the cost to the public will only be about $2 a person, if,
let's say, 35 people show up.
We will also invite local newspaper reporters, as well as some local
TV news crew from Farmington.
Again, if anyone is interested in helping us with the logistics, etc.,
please e-mail me at:
