Way to keep score! And instead of MUFON thugs bursting in with flash cameras popping, it now appears that two people turned up on someone's doorstep (if anything happened at all), one of whom *may* have been associated with MUFON, and were apparently disappointed, and perhaps rude, that the announced conference wasn't being held. This is a far cry from the way this matter was first presented. Anyway, an investigation is still under way. You'll criticize us for this, no matter what the outcome, but to us it's all wasted time and energy--something we have to do to restore our good name because you posted the original complaint far & wide and pretended as if it meant something. Thanks! To the best of Walt Andrus's knowledge, MUFON did not even have a state section director in Waco five years ago. But we'll continue to look into the matter and let everyone know what, if anything, we find. As stated before, if we find any evidence whatsoever that anyone even remotely associated with MUFON was involved in this incident, we will immediately issue a public apology to that effect. However, even if the incident should have happened exactly as described in the most recent version you've posted, it should be obvious to everyone (except perhaps yourself) that such actions hardly constitute MUFON policy--otherwise cyberspace would be buzzing with similar complaints, especially since five years have now come and gone. I suspect your source--this someone who no one locally has ever heard of, yet who somehow managed nonetheless to attract all these important officials to her B&B--is suffering from self-imposed illusions of both grandeur and paranoia. We do predict, though, that she won't be able to find the business card of the individual involved (and why anyone hellbent on insulting and/or terrorizing someone would leave their business card behind still escapes me); we also predict that she (he?) won't even be able to remember the *name* of the individual supposedly involved, either--so that you or anyone else will be able to contact them for their side of the story. And aren't both sides of the story what we're really after? Or would you prefer not to hear ours? Dennis
