Regarding "Jim Dilettoso" - Latest First

the matrix has you... the prophet doesn't tell you the truth(necessarily), it tells you what you need to hear. fate gives you information in accordance with necessity and karma. before questioning the truth of someone else's existance question the truth of your own, then question the nature of truth's purpose...it's all a matter of perspection(my own word) -- monday lumino (irishwhisk@aol.com ) 8/4/99 (#4)

TENT FADE When invited to exhibit my unusual chamber at the World UFO Congress at Tuscon in 1991,Mr.Dilettoso asked to video tape it from the inside out and, promised me a copy. Never saw it! Blackmagdalena@Hotmail.com -- blackmagdalena (blackmagdalena@hotmail.com ) 2/21/99 (#3)

missing images In Feb. '98 I sent Dilettoso two dozen images from a 1975 "cloudbusting" experiment for analysis. The infrared slides showed an anomalous atmospheric phenonemon which I could not identify. Dilettoso acknowledged receipt and told me in a March phone conversation that the phenomena appeared unique, matching nothing else in his database. To date I have been unable to recover my originals, obtain the results of his analysis and now have lost contact with him. Anyone knowing Mr. Dilettoso's whereabouts please contact me. Thank you. -- Malcolm Brenner (76762,2030@compuserve.com ) 6/1/98 (#2)

Wrong Spelling Wrong Name Spelling. Have seen hundreds of science based analysis, most upaid, under his supervision. Clearly the top media and military don't waste their time and money on bozos. And this guy runs a hot company with lots of other paths to fame and ric hes. Maybe suspicious, but not hiding a thing from what I have seen. -- Knowing party 3/23/97 (#1) Name spelling for "Dilettoso" is correct according to all published references I have seen. -- GC
