Q:  How has interaction with the Greys been limited by government actions?

MAYNARD:  Limited was probably too gentle of a word for what is happening. The
government is trying to directly control all contact between the Greys and the
populace. This is one of the reasons for the hostilities spoken of between them,
and why we may hear from the Greys long before the government wants disclosure.

SURFING:   What do you know if anything regarding the motivations behind the
visitors to our earth?

MAYNARD:  I can speculate like everyone else, yet some of this information was
way beyond what my clearance was allowed to read. I do know that some of that
motivation has to do with our growth, not only as a species, but also as a
future member of an interplanetary social community that has already achieved a
place in a greater universal society.  How fast we get there and what our
importance will be to that community depends on many factors. At present, our
government is controlling this aspect of our knowledge and until that has
changed there will never be a true relationship. I firmly believe that if our
government and other governments that have full knowledge of this contact do not
come forward and make the announcement to the world, then the aliens will do it
themselves, which most certainly will cause some panic.

SURFING:  How long do you believe our government has had the knowledge that we
are not alone in the universe?

MAYNARD:  That is hard to say, but I believe the United States Government --but
not necessarily the elected government-- had some knowledge of an alien presence
as early as the mid-1800's. However, as to when official contact was made, I
have never seen anything in writing on a specific date. Although, through the
tracking of rumors, other stated information, and conversations I have had, I
would estimate that official contact was made in the early to mid-1930's. Yet,
it could have been as early as pre-WWI (1910-14), which is long before today's
popular belief of the 1950's. Therein, because of the limited (congressional and
executive branch) knowledge, the government as a whole was not prepared for the
UFO crashes that occurred in the late 1940's and early 1950's.

Because of this, the government stumbled dramatically, giving rise to
speculation and conspiracy theories. However, with the speed of today's
communications, the conspiracy advocates have a tendency to provide far more
information on the event than actually occurred. Therefore, society is left with
the feeling of being off balance, because of who does and does not have
knowledge of extraterrestrial life.
