All of this information can be easily verified with easy research.  If it
in fact is verified all the folks will then explain it away by saying the
history/books were altered in order to coverup the "alien" origins of all
this so called technology.  It will then spawn new conspiracy theorys, new so
called funded research requests -- can't you see Roswell theorists
investigating the origins of so called technology with asundry visits to this
or that archives and how MJ-12/or whatever Top Secret group  was hooked into
it from the "very" beginning.

Corso did was confirm (with documents that had been declassified for the
hearings) the he personally briefed Eisenhower on 1800 US POWs that were
taken out of Korea during the Korean war to China.  Eisenhowers comment was
essentially that he wasn't going to risk a nuclear confrontation over 1800
men.

Not to mention some other excellent Eisenhower administration stuff.  I
know that the archvists at the Eisenhower Presidential library find him
totally credible, totally believable and can't understand why he "would be
involved in this less credible UFO trash."

Not to mention NASA plans 1-10 to have moon bases/space stations etc etc.

Not even a "Jim Ragsdale" with credentials?  Come now!

Kind of like saying if World War 2 hero and Congressional Medal of Honor
winner Audie Murphy was such a big deal, why did he leave the Army after the
war at only a "Captain".
