- Hello all,
-
- I hear that several messages are circulating
RE my remarks concerning
- Hoagland. I want to set the record straight.
-
- I have said nothing about Hoagland in
my book or in any advertisement. I've
- made only one significant public statement
of any kind RE Hoagland, and it
- was posted on Sightings.com. It was simply
a statement of my
- appraisal-to-date of most of Hoagland's
signature assertions. I played no
- role whatsoever in Stephens' "200
questions" except in confirming that
- Stephens should have the opportunity
to ask them, and that many of Stephens'
- points were indeed quite factual. The
challenge of another's assertions is
- the natural process of how fact is separated
from mistake or fiction, and
- Hoagland is not exempt from this process
(nor is Stephens, nor me).
-
- Hoagland's views on Cydonia, his particular
vision of hyperdimensional
- physics, the alleged geometric "glass"
enclosures spanning lunar craters,
- and many (though not all) of his other
claims, are not supported by the
- evidence that can be found on his site
or in his books. There may indeed be
- some interesting anomalies that relate
to domains Hoagland and countless
- others study (such as the extensive list
of unusual lunar data and
- observations), but I have not seen compelling
evidence for such on
- EnterpriseMission.com or in Richard's
books. I remain perfectly willing to
- stand corrected on anything I've said
as evidence dictates.
-
- But, this is really not the time to be
having this debate. I was saddened to
- hear of Richard's recent heart attack.
Richard is as much a human being as
- any one of us, and deserves our heartfelt
concern.
-
- Joe Firmage
