Dear List:

There are not enough hours in the day to rationally address or discuss UFO
matters with Ed Komarek. The list of people persecuting him and ORTK just
gets longer and longer, the plot thicker and thicker. I should point out
that it does absolutely no good whatsoever to deny that there is a
mastermind, a plot and a bunch of slavish underlings carrying it out,
because Mr. Komarek will always believe want he wants to, no matter
what--which includes evidence to the contrary.

Nevertheless, just to keep the record straight, I'll briefly address those
charges where I'm mentioned in his latest paranoid broadside.

>ORTK  was also attacked in UFO magazine by the Chairman of FUFOR, Richard
>Hall, with  a similar hatchet job like Pflocks and Whitings.  Then surprise
>surprise, MUFON came out against these political activities. (Just who make
>this decision?)  I now think that Deuley was the secret mastermind behind

There is no secret mastermind behind the attack because there is no such
attack -- only a lot of people who disagree with Komarek's approach to
certain matters, including the issue of whether picketing the White House
actually accomplishes that much--or can accomplish much. But people in this
field are not allowed to have honest disagreements with know-it-all Komarek.

Deuley has virtually zero input as far as the Journal goes. For example,
although he lives only a couple of miles away, I didn't send him a
pre-publication copy of Jeffrey's paper, nor did he ask for one. For all I
know, he may not even be aware of its existence until he gets his copy of
the June Journal in the mail. It might surprise you to learn that we both
have families, he has more than a fulltime job, and, frankly, we are just
too busy to sit around plotting the ruin of ufology from within.

Jim Mosely got a copy because he did that rarest of things in ufology -- he
called me on the phone and asked for one. The article was already at the
printer's. I also sent advance copies to Kevin Randle and Stanton Friedman
by email and asked for their response. Randle has already responded and his
response will appear in the next issue of the Journal. If you ask me
politely, I'll send you a copy of same if you promise not to distribute it
before publication.

As for Corso's book, use a little logic, Ed, even though you're a complete
stranger to such matters. If Corso's book is really, actually true in every
regard, then the secret is finally out--"outed" by a true insider. Now, how
good could an orchestrated cover up be if the powers that be actually let
Corso's book get into print? Isn't this just the sort of stuff they're
charged to keep out of the public eye, regardless of the cost?

The fact of the matter is that Corso's book will be reviewed and discussed
everywhere in the mainstream media. I expect the major TV newsmagazines are
clamoring for exclusive interviews even as we speak. If you think a 3 or
4-page review (I'm sorry, I meant attack) of his book by Pflock in the MUFON
Journal is going to carry much impact on national affairs, I appreciate the
flattery, but that's about it.

>Now, are these same individuals, Deuley, Stacy and Hall manipulating the
>Coalition to create a containment operation in order to sabotage hearings in
>Congress?  Maybe make Greer into being the bad guy?

It would be fairly hard for me to have much influence on (i.e., manipulate)
the Coalition, since I'm not a member and don't attend their meetings. I do
know Richard Hall, however. The only contact I've had in the past year with
him was to solicit an article for the UFO book that was just published in
England. Did I ask Hall to contribute so as to further some sort of
conspiracy against you and ORTK? No, I asked him because he's a known name
in the field and has been around UFOs for almost 50 years now.

If Greer has damaged his own reputation, he's done it without any assistance
from me whatsoever. The full details of my own personal experience with
Greer--atop Woodborough Hill in England in the early 90s, when he was trying
to call down flying saucers with giant flashlights--have never appeared in
print. In fact, I thought I was doing Greer a favor by not publishing them
in detail, as they're not very flattering. My own opinion is that the man
has a screw or two loose rattling around in his attic, but you're free to
follow and support whomever you wish.

As things now stand, I *might* print Michael Lindemann's piece about Greer
and the Washington briefings, which, I suppose, puts Lindemann in on the
conspiracy, too. Jeez, it's spreading by the minute, isn't it?

If I do, though, it will be because I think many of our readers might be
interested in reading it. An ulterior motive if there ever was one.
