Endgame, perhaps? If Phase Two is completed, is there a Phase
Three, now imminent?

If indeed the incidences of abduction events are on the wane,
one obvious possible interpretation which springs to mind is
that they're just about finished with whatever it is they've
been up to thus far.

This could be a good thing, or a bad thing.

What popped into my own head, as I read John Velez's post, was
the following passage from David Jacobs' "The Threat":

"As if to reaffirm their plan, when aliens talk about the
future, they do not say what most abductees and researchers want
them to say: 'Soon we will be gone. Our program is at an end.
  Thank you for your help. Once we leave no one will be sure we
were ever here.' This is _never_ stated. The future for the
aliens and hybrids is always a future on Earth where they will
be integrated with humans. They offer no other possibility."
  (p. 253, hardbound edition)

Certainly there are other "takes" on the ultimate nature,
meaning, and significance of the abduction phenom. But this is
one "take" which has a great deal of evidence going for it, it
seems, and is at least worth considering. It's one possible,
perhaps speculative (but not altogether uninformed or
unintelligent) guess as to what may be happening -- especially
if it's true that abductions are currently tapering off. Food
for thought, FWIW.
