The signal-to-noise ratio in that field of interest is unbelievablely bad.

That's the truth. Whatever it is seems to be highly marketable. Worldwide.

THIS ROSWELL PROGRAM's on camera interviews from several actors on the scene is quite convincing to me.

What's the trouble with people who treat them with such incredulity??? I guess bias is a real strong blackwashing factor.

Why isn't the government's double talk screamed at more.

1) On the one hand, they insist there's no implications or connection with National Security involved at all.

2) On the other hand, the senior Judge viewing the key FOI requests declared himself that this UFO related info was

THE MOST SENSITIVE, SECRET, VITAL NATIONAL SECURITY INFORMATION THAT OUR GOVERNMENT CONTAINED COMPARED TO ALL OTEHRS.

Can't have it both ways folks.

And how do skeptics explain the initial published reports vis a vis the military press release that WE HAD RECOVERD A CRASHED UFO DISC???

Thanks for the ping.

I turned it on, saw that Bryant Noballs was the narrarator, and switched off.

I wish that the SciFi channel would put some of that UFO money into programming.

Some of the info might be highly classified. Fine, withhold that particular info. Most of it is probably not classified at all anymore: release it. Shouldn't be a problem.

EVEN BEFORE the next program starts . . . just reviewing this Roswell program and reflecting on last Tuesday's program etc. . . coupled with Von Braun's statement . . .

I suspect that within 6-18 months, the government may well be saying something official. I'd place those odds at say something like . . . 60-80%. Within 24-36 months within say 70-90% probability. It may depend on what the public response is to these programs.

The existence of extraterrestrial life is not a poll question. The number of people who believe in it is as meaningful as the number of children who believe in the tooth fairy.

If such exists, sooner or later it will land in a populated area and the lid will come off.

Wouldn't that be fun?

"fun"

will probably depend on

the degree to which

the lid coming off will equal:

A) THE DAY THE EARTH STOOD STILL

or

B) ID4

I think the puppet masters and perhaps MOST of the ET races are ready to support the global government tyranny . . . and to take either A) or B) tack--whichever seems most fruitful for their goals at the time.

Strongly agree.

BTW, IF YOU ARE PLANNING ON BEING HERE for the live chat regarding the Sci Fi program following, please let me know. I'd like to keep a rough count of how many of us hereon are interested enough to show up.

Wasn't that one of the first things Bubba had Webb Hubel check out for him. He send him to Area 51 to find out if UFO's are real. It was a photo op right after he was elected. Ole Slick said "I want know if UFO's are real too. So one the first things I did was have Webb check into it for me." Forget terrorists, economy, etc. Slick was looking for alien nooky right from the start of his Presidency.

Understand. I hope you come back for the following program on the hour--I assume. I think it was supposed to be on 21:00 EDT.

And please let me know if you are just lurking THEN even if you prefer to do it via FREEPMAIL.

"puppet masters"

Whooooo! There was a film (Based on a Robert Heinlein novel) about that. Also a Star Trek (original series) episode.

Alien parasites take over our minds. Yech!

To say that the existence of ET's is not a poll question because it is = to the question of how many believe in fairies . . .

obsfucates, to me.

The issue would turn out to be--whether one or the other were true. I have lots of confidence one will turn out true and not the other one.

Polls of number of people believing can at least indicate to government that perhaps we would NOT have a repeat of WAR OF THE WORLDS supposed panic from the radio program were UFO ET data to be released.

I agree with you.

But perhaps the connecting threads are too problematic. They may be 'terrified' that their collective geece are cooked when the public finds out all the crazy, perhaps treasonous and at least derelict decisions and actions that have been made and taken.

Taking over the body politic throught he likes of her hideous heinous Shrillery Hellery Antoinette de Fosterizer de Sade

IS QUITE SERIOUS ENOUGH.

There are those in the field who insist the ET's and government folks ARE engaged in VARIOUS forms of media, mass and individual mind control.

I've poohpoohed that for a long time. However, I've known some highly classified researchers in brain influences--artificial detection etc. stuff regarding the brain. I won't rule out all the allegations totally.

Sorry about all that. Let me be clearer.

Polls and percentages of belief do not relate to facts.

At one time, 100% of mankind believed the world was flat.

They were wrong.

In the past, most men of science believed that humans would never fly.

They were wrong.

If many people believe that there is extraterrestrial life, well, the odds are in their favor.

If they also believe that ETs have visited our earth, the odds are less in their favor.

But belief does not affect facts.

Wouldn't doubt that to a point.

Would doubt that the powers that be would trust Bubba with shredded toilet paper from the projects.

Would you?

I quite agree with you.

But the poll numbers can have influence in disclosure aspects.

And perhaps at least in lessening the impact of the government's use of ridicule to silence or neuter witnesses etc.
