I printed the bulk of this web sitge and read down through ten fine print pages before concluding that this doesn't pass the smell test. Provided that something may have been presented beyond my stopping point that would change my opinion, here is my simple reason why this stuff is BS.

There is a complete lack of a sense of utter amazement and wonder regarding the findings of 12 people travelling and living with another civilization located 38.43 light years from earth. I have read more exciting stuff about the Chicago Auto Show than from these pages.

Thee actual descriptions of the alien world are linear and convention (and booooorrrrriiiinnnnggg). Most people I know come back from summer vacation with more exciting stories to tell. The aliens were dull, the food was dull, didn't see anything particularly new, it was awfully hot, electric razors worked fine with the eben system, time didn't matter, the ebens went to church, they had funerals, there food tasted like potatoes, the humans had to boil the eben water before drinking it, families had a mommy and a daddy and two kids, zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.

Like I said, this stuff has been peddled in different packages many times over.
That is a good call, I didn't put my finger on it, but it all seems like: Yep, we met some aliens. Rather than: Oh my gosh, there's someone else! Look at this!

Your BS meter seems to be functioning very well.

"There is a complete lack of a sense of utter amazement and wonder"

Not saying this report doesn't ring the BS bell.....
But what can one expect from a whitewashed, top secret government report? There is not supposed to be any sensationalism......just pure unbiased analysis by people who were just as skeptical as we are.
