- O'course, this has actually happened. For instance, "Pappy" Henderson

- specifically told *not* to talk to anyone. Various people have come
- to Len Stringfield (for, among other things, his proven discretion) --
- I recommend his various reports (most available from MUFON) about a
- number of UFO-related things. Also have a read of Randle and
- Schmitt's "UFO Crash at Roswell", for lists of people who witnessed

- After so many decades the most likely reason an et vehicle

- ... yes. I have said before that a secret is easy to keep if everyone
- involved *wants* to keep it secret (or at least has a vested interest
- in keeping it secret.)
-
- But in that case, we should observe some major shift in
- governmental goals and policies, and we haven't.
-
- ... well, now let's not get too hasty. Major shifts from what to
- what? Do we know for certain that the late-1950's "race for space"
- was motivated solely because of fear of a (as was known at the time,
- at least in some government circles) relatively inferior Soviet
- capability?

- Consider NASA's continuing quest for a reasonable budget.
-
- ... NASA's budget is not by any means the entirety of the US space
- effort (and never was). Ever hear of a KH-11? (I know Vandenburg AFB
- is a long way from you, but surely you've heard of it! :-) Have a
- read of William Burrows' "Deep Black" for more.
