- Dear a.a.v readers,
-
-
-
-
- first of all, I would like to apologize to everyone who read my original
- posting about the Russian UFO.
-
- THE WHOLE STORY IS A LIE. I have never been in Russia in all my life.
- -------------------------
-
- I posted this to find out how people react and whether people would believe
- a story like this. I DID NOT DO THIS TO MAKE FUN OF ANYONE. I do believe
- that it is very well possible that we have had contact with aliens.
-
- I realize that many of you are not really impressed to say the least.
-
- My main concern is that, after now reading that it was all fake, all those
- people who offered to help me won't believe the next guy who posts a story
- which is true. So please, KEEP ON BELIEVING THOSE PEOPLE SERIOUSLY POSTING
- TO THIS GROUP.
-
- I was very impressed by the help so many people offered, and I really felt
- bad about them offering their help to someone who lied to them. I thank
- all of you who did answer to my posting.
-
- I got a total of 5 replies, the two follow-ups and a phone call from a guy
- from Germany.
-
- Here is what they told me:
- --------------------------
-
- 1) One guy guessed it was a Russian classified vertical takeoff aircraft.
-
- 2) Two of them wanted to know more about the "sample", where it was now etc.
-
- > ... you might describe these more fully. What do they weigh? What
- > size? What shape? Greyish, as in dark or light grey? Dull or
- > bright? Weathered, machined?
-
- [I was actually describing a chunk of Silicon I took from an aluminum plant.
- It is really strange stuff - very hard, but still metal-like. I was going to
- give some more hints after reading some of the followups (like "it's got a
- resistance of 500 Ohms from one end to the other"), but I didn't want to lie
- to you any further.
-
- 3) One concern also mentiuoned was about preserving what I found. This is of
- course very important, and I would recommend everyone hiding A PART of
- something alien they found right away and not even tell anyone about it until
- the time has come.
-
- 4) Two people mentioned that in Russia, UFOlogy has been taken much more
- seriously than in the West.
-
- 5) One advice I got that makes sense was TO TAKE SOME SOIL OF AN ENCOUNTER
- SIGHT to check for radiation and bacteria.
-
- 6) A Special thanks to Garrett for this offer (A follow-up, I hope you don't mind
- me reposting your adress.):
-
- > Send a sample of that rock to me, and we will to some FTICR/MS, Xray
- > fluoresence and other tests on it and see what it is made of:
- >
- > Dr. Garrett Van Cleef
- > Laser Spectroscopy Facility
- > Department of Chemistry
- > Box 234
- > The Ohio State University
- > Columbus, OH 43210
-
- 7) The guy who called me recommended a german book about all this and gave
- me the adress of a german UFO organization. A special thanks to you.
-
- -----
- Generally, I was surprised that everyone believed me. Please keep this up! I
- am confident that anyone who experinced something like this can post and
- people will help him.
-
-
- Of course, almost everyone wanted more info. For your amusement, here is what
- I was planning on telling them:
- ____ ____ ____
- The clouds looked like this:-(____)-(____)-(____)-. The sound was 1-2Hz.
- Of course this was supposed to match the "Pulser" aircraft mentioned in the
- FAQ.
- The sample was Silicon (see above).
- The picture disappeared when I had them developed (MIBs?)
- I picked Russia because it makes it harder to check if it really happened.
-
- Again, sorry about all of this,
- hoping that some of what I found was interesting for you,
-
