- Last night, I watched Peter Jenning's present his ABC
Special and have already seen statements made by some UFO researchers and
would like to express my opinion. BTW, I have not seen how yet to provide
feedback to ABC, but an email campaign might be in order.
-
- 1. Recent sightings - fairly good presentation with
convincing witness testimony.
-
- 2. Early sightings - Not too bad. Military pilot testimony
very interesting.
-
- 3. Phoenix Lights sightings - good witness testimony,
but now I see who they interviewed when I was told they wanted to interview
me, but went to Tucson for a real expert (gag!). James McGaha is an arch
skeptic and his explanations are like leaky balloons which fall to the
ground. His explanation of 5 airplanes instead of 1 large object with
5 lights came from one eyewitness, a dubious young man named Mitch Stanley
who said he saw 5 airplanes in formation on the night of March 13th through
his Dobsonian telescope. No one else saw these 5 airplanes. As for the
flares, I will not waste your time on that.
-
- 4. Roswell - BIG FLUNK on this one. Maybe Peter Jennings
did want to delve into that bag as he did not want to incur flashback from
politicos. Karl Pflock got in more than his 2 cents and Stanton -- oh,
we did not hear any rebuttal from Stanton. The Mogul balloon explanation
that the Air Force dug out of its handy dandy files has been thoroughly
discredited by any researcher worth his salt, but Pflock backs the Air
Force: Roswell, Case Closed. HA! Anything but closed.
-
- 5. Majestic 12 and the cover up - well, the impression
is that anyone who believes this is a conspiracy theorists. Check into
how Jennings dealt with the JFK assasination. Just the straight poppycock
and pamblum for the viewers -- no real insight here.
-
- 6. Abductions -- The abductees did well in telling
a little of their stories, but the lasting impression given by the two
psychologists with their opinion of hypnosis and sleep paralysis without
rebuttal from Hopkins or another professional (John Mack not shown - too
bad we lost him). Their statements made my wife angry and she said, "they
should be taken". No fair and balanced reporting here.
-
- 7. Space Travel - I don't want to hear one more time
"they can't get here from there", the distances are insuperable,
or it is so incredibly difficult. Thank God Dr. Michio Kaku offset this
with his positive and upbeat statements on wormhole travel.
-
- 8. Astrobiologists -- Chris McKay made an outstanding
statement saying that his only difference from those who believe UFOs represent
the existence of ET life is that he prefers looking for material evidence,
but was actually quite friendly with his remarks.
-
- 9. SETI scientists - what is with these guys? We are
not trying to fight a turf war with them. And what were they doing on
a show with a UFO focus? Give them their own damn show. The time they
took to make their case could be given to CE-5 cases as defined by Dr.
Richard Haines -- cases involving signaling UFOs and receiving responses
such as I did when I was a naive teenager.
-
- Conclusion: UFO researchers should team up and produce
their own television special and make it a mini-series. Anyone who can
donate the dollars would be welcome as long as we are free to present our
case for the UFO.
-
- Well, I hope that it raised public awareness. That is
the least it could do.
-
- Respectfully yours,
