==============================

Hello Errol, All,

First. Errol, thanx once again for providing a balanced
and even handed presentation of this material. 'UpDates'
is 'quality' because _you_ put it there!

I've been following the thread involving Kent Jeffreys
with interest. After reading his piece, I find it to be
reasonable, well documented, and presented in a very clear
and rational manner.

Kents' contribution to the (massive) body of Roswell
literature is every bit as 'credible' and important (and
in certain instances moreso, ie; FOIA documents cited) as
anything else that's been produced on the subject.

I've never been real big in the 'dogma' department and it
bothers me to no end that rationally presented alternative
viewpoints or data are dismissed because they don't fit in
with the accepted party line. Isn't that what some so called
UFOlogists accuse the 'skeptics and debunkers' of?

Worse yet, is this almost infantile (and definitely paraniod)
habit some have of accusing anyone with a different view point
of being an agent of the Illuminati or the dreaded CIANSAFBI.
It's become such a knee jerk reaction among 'certain members'
of the UFO community, that they, (the individuals that
consistantly do it) really need to be addressed as a whole
seperate issue. Culled from the herd.

Speaking for myself, I have a strong tendency to immediately
dismiss individuals that are guilty of it. Folks that see
'agents' in every dark corner are every bit as suspect (to me)
as those that claim they are in mental contact with Beldar
from Remulac, or among the 144,000 saved souls prophesized in
Revelations, or who claim to have the market on the 'truth'
cornered.

In my (very) humble oppinion, Kent Jeffrey has contributed
some solid information and raised valid points and questions
in regard to Roswell. We must help one another to keep our
minds open, inquiring, and unfettered by dogmatism. Once things
start to become accepted as unquestioned fact, all hope for the
discovery of the truth is lost.

Because of my, (and my familys) personal stake in it, the
truth, whatever that may eventually turn out to be, must
remain of paramount importance. Damn the rigid, unquestioning
dolts on both sides! They do us _all_ a grave diservice.
