Only now that you've been called on the carpet, you fess
up to your bumbling. This is the kind of poor research
and reporting skills that belongs over at ATS where the
cheeto eating kids can dream of black helicpoters and
subterranian tunnels. Your flip-flopping from one stance
to the other, and then the poorly formed attempt to cover
it up by claiming Smith is writing fiction, really stomps
your credibility all to hell, Krack.

Did I mention that I was raised by alien lizards?


Lumpy

there , there dear ole  Lumpy  (  or Mr Smith is it ? ) .... do you
feel better now that you have vented " all that " ?    I hope so.

nothing that happens  in your computer  world is worth taking very
serious, especially  to the point that you feel upset about it.  life
is too short  and " people " ( not necessarily you ,  guy )  too odd
to allow things to come to " that " in your life.  

just file this information in your information banks and go on with
things  ....... none of any of this stuff worth much in the scheme of
things in " real life ".   go hug your wife , sit in a nice lawn chair
and  sip some lemonade and think of  pleasant things in your life.

tomorrow I'll go bass fishing and probably forget all about anything
to do with Tehcahapi  , you could do the same as well.   over all
it was a fun and stimulating experience and tomorrow I'll go on with
other things in my life.  

nothing I have done about Tehachapi  would I consider research,
it's just an unimportant personal visit and experience , quite
unremarkable  in the scheme of things in the world.  surely the fact
that  a  mega super secret Tehachapi base with maglevs , flying power
balls and endless acres of clandestine activity  doesn't exist , is no
great surprise to most people .   I even have to laugh a bit myself,
it's all just part of the  interesting experience.   

Stephen Smith is someone pretty much unknown to me .  I only know him
through his writing and presentation  at  his Tehachapi web site.  I'm
sure he is a fine person and in my opinion a talented writer. he
demonstrates the exceptional power to make people dream and 
think of alternative possibilities.  he certainly was able to excite
my thoughts and drove me to explore more of my world.  people like him
contribute  quite a lot to their world and the world of others around
them , cheers to him for his  remarkable talent.  ultimately it isn't
a matter of fact or fiction  , much like the stories of the X files.
reality is always different things to different people anyway ,   more
important is the ability to excite and stimulate thought and discourse
of man in  humanity ,  something that Steven Smith has accomplished  
with expert ability (  for me , anyway ) . it was great fun . 

take care Lumpy, and could you please send me a family  lizard picture
for my scrap book, I'd like that !   thanks guy.
