John (Velez):

Please read my reply to John Powell including yourself
pertaining to John's statement above.

I understand your feelings as perhaps only another who has
traveled through similar experiences can. At the same time
however, I also understand where John (Powell) is coming from.

The problem as I see it, is that up to date, there has been
absolutely zilch real objective and honest research into
whatever the hell is happening. That there is something
happening that is extremely strange is undeniable. No one would
like to have this problem see the light of day more than myself.
I strongly feel that all paranormal events attendant to nearly
every experience must be taken into the equation. I feel
strongly that researchers MUST take into account that the
subjects of these occurrences ARE human and as such do have
emotions that have repeatedly in some cases received a
tremendous amount of shock. I also feel just as strongly that
those experiencers that would take a part in these researches
strive to disassociate themselves from the emotional attachment
to their experiences that they have. Trust me, it is a tough
request, but somewhat doable.

Impassioned rhetoric from either side of the equation as has
occurred countless times in the past is no longer called for in
my opinion.

Sincere Kindest Regards,

    Clark Hathaway
