This story has gotten a lot of play in Europe.  The problem is that there
isn't really a story here.  The Pentagon Spokesman was responding to a
reporter's question during the regular Tuesday briefing at the Pentagon.  I
suppose they might have prompted a reporter to ask the question, so they
would have the chance to give their "canned" response, but that seems
unlikely.  The question was prompted by the "Heaven's Gate" group suicide,
and the response reiterated the findings of Project Blue Book, which had
ended nearly thirty years ago.

Let's not get hung up on stories that are being created out of the media's
need to find another facet to the "Heaven's Gate" graduation.
