The "Freedom of Information" documents alone testify to something big happening at Roswell. Why else would they black out page after page after page? Surely a "weather" balloon wouldn't necessitate that kind of secrecy.

If you watched Geraldo Rivera open Al Capone's 'vault' then you got as much satisfaction as 'Startling New Evidence' will give you.
An empty trench and sealed paper bags.

Huge disappointment.

MUCH APPRECIATE YOUR KIND POST AND THE URL.

It's nice to see this well done documentary. Nothing much that new has been presented yet on the scifi channel via Direct TV but they are at least providing a measure of confirmation.

I don't think it's any accident that this is coming out with Spielberg's TAKEN movie.

We visited the UFO Museum in Roswell on our way to vacation in Ruidoso. The one thing that stands out in my mind was that, for a musuem, there just weren't very many artifacts!

I saw this show. Gumbel was the host, a bunch of UFO nuts dug some holes in the ground, a bunch of people claimed that "something happened", and in the end, zero. I was hoping the "truth" would finally be revealed again, so a few more of the tinfoil hat crowd would get informed. Here's the story: In the pre-spy sattelite days, the Air Force experimented with high altitude spy baloons. Ther were supposed to drift across the USSR, taking spy photos, and be recovered. Most of them disappeared, one came down near Guam (?) and caused a fighter squadron to be scrambled, and got a pilot in a bunch of trouble when he shot the baloon down and it sank. Another one landed at Roswell. It was top secret, hence the cover story, ("flying saucers!"), and hence the blacked-out FIA reports, and end of story. Flame On, Tinfoilers!

Let's get this right now. You are hosting a staged event. The purpose is to dupe the public with false props. You are giving them a false story of the event.

Do you think for one minute that Ramey would be standing there with the real storyline on a piece of paper in his hand?

There is one fact that is indisputable. The government has lied about Roswell. That is all that is known for certain. Be it a top secret project, a UFO, or what... I honestly don't know, but the government is to this day lying about what happened there.

The thing that I knew about already, was the government explanation of the bodies people claimed seeing, as being crash test dummies the military used for tests. The air force waited until 1997 to offer this as an excuse because people at the time would have known it to be a lie, since the crash test dummies weren't used until 1953.

Things like this makes me question why they are still lying. It makes no sense whatsoever to wait all this time to come up with this excuse if it was real. Were we afraid that the Commies would steal our top secret crash dummy technology or something? Yeah sure...

It was a nuke or ET.

Since conspiracy theories are what this whole Roswell situation is about, there is something that has been bothering me since I watched the show.

Anybody else notice how anti-Republican this show was? Consider:

1. Bryant Gumbel, a diehard liberal whose hero is FDR, hosted it.

2. George H.W. Bush was slammed for refusing Mr. Peanut the Roswell files when he was director of CIA.

3. John Podesta, the little weenie from Willy's administration, was profiled as leading the whackos who want everything declassified. Podesta was shown railing against the current administration for refusing to "tell the American people the truth." (Why didn't somebody ask him why he didn't expose the truth during his EIGHT years in D.C.?)

4. Bill Richardson, another Clintonista, was referred to as "governor" and shown being terribly concerned about the whole situation.

In all fairness, Truman was bashed also. Of course, if he were alive today he'd probably be a Republican so that doesn't count.

Just some random thoughts.

~Me.

Wasting my precious time watching that stupid program & the sorry loser Gumball (~who came with *it*).
Stupid-stupid-stupid!

I could've been doing something infinitely more productive on a Friday night.
Like getting a root canal.

...I'm gonna sue.

I surprised the New York Times hasn't featured this with the angle that Ronald Reagan was an alien spy.

A computer analysis of that memo, held by Brig. Gen. Roger Ramey during a July 1947 press briefing, is the "smoking gun" of the Roswell Incident, researchers say in the documentary being broadcast today on the Sci-Fi Channel.

So the good general is going to show the weather balloon, while at the same time waving what would have to be an ultra-Top Sectet memo in front of the photogs?

Riiiiiiigghhht!

What a crock.
