I recently sent the following comment to the fellow who's conducting the "The Day After Roswell Database" If you find it of interest, you are welcome to post it with the other articles/essays on the Corso page. 'All the best! Seth Joseph Weine ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Subj: Re: Checking out Corso Date: 09/14/97 To: rduffy@pulaski.k12.ky.us Greetings! Your idea to follow up on the claims of the author is great! I offer the following line of investigation: Corso mentions, near the beginning of the book, receiving a copy of his boss's (General Trudeau) privately printed memoirs . Generally, such privately printed books have a print run of at least one hundred copies. Even if such a book never appeared on the commercial market, not every copy stays in private hands forever. People die and their relatives sell the accumulated books to used book dealers. Sometimes the books are willed to libraries (school, public, or research institutions.) Sometimes people tire, or lose interest in some of their books and just want to purge their libraries of unwanted volumes. Also, it's possible that the General, (like anyone who's vain enough to pay for publishing their own memoirs) gave copies to selected institutional libraries: The Pentagon Library, The Library of Congress, the libraries of all the schools (preparatory, college, military) he went to, the base libraries of all the installations he served at (one could check his service record). Some--or many-- of those institutions may make thier collections available to outside scholars. Also, if the book was sold to the book trade, it could be sitting on some store's bookshelf right now. There are national search services for out-of-print books. For a few dollars (of even for free) these search services will search the nation for any book you seek. If they find it, you are not obligated to buy it, unless you like the price it's offered at. Such services are always listed in the Sunday book review supplements of major newspapers (i.e. the NY Times, The New York Review of Books.) Now I don't think, if we got ahold of Trudeau's book, that there'd be a sentence that reads: "I gave my trusty assistant Corso the job of integrating Alien technology into our defence industries". Of course not. But.... UFO researchers are used to looking for hints and slivers of evidence. Perhaps there's something in the book that--however obliquely--can be used to make a case, either way, on Corso's story. I suggest that a search be made for General Trudeau's memoirs, and that they be sifted for any useful evidence. Respectfully yours, Seth Joseph Weine sethweine@aol.com
