Prokic" <rprokic@ibm.net> >To: updates@globalserve.net Roger, I want to make it clear to you and others here that I do NOT know Kent Jeffrey. We played answering machine tag for a while a year or more ago, but never managed to connect and talk. So I can't speak about Kent's character from any first-hand experience. That being said, I was outraged when I saw his piece on the Santilli film, and even more outraged that MUFON published it. It was quite clear that he had made up his mind, and then looked for evidence to support his conclusion that the film could not possibly be real because a humanoid which evolved on another planet could not possibly look so much like us. This is a ridiculous premise, since we have no way of knowing how evolution really works. It is still a theory, and there are many holes in it even in explaining what has come about on this planet. We simply have no idea how evolution would progress elsewhere, and therefore no _a priori_ reasons to dismiss the film on these grounds. Additionally, even if the film is real, we do not know that the being shown in it is extraterrestrial in origin or evolution. The problem with Kent's cameramen is that their statements do not agree with published documents by Kodak and others from the appropriate time period. Simply put, they do not know what they are talking about photographically. Contrary to Rebecca's assertions, I see no need for me to speak with purveyors of nonsense personally to refute their nonsense. Nonsense is nonsense, regardless of the source. Speaking with the source will not alter that. Just as in your case, I don't know Kent, but I emphatically do not trust him. I do know Rebecca, and I think she is an honest truth seeker, and I do not mistrust her motives. Bob
