Dear Linda Cortile,

	Thank you for your unexpectantly
speedy answers to my questions and for
furthering 'our' understanding of what these
alien visitations mean to us as a society.

	I just want to reply that I greatly
empathesize with your feelings of mistrust
towards what you had always supposed was
"how the world normally was" as well as the
resentment towards the intrusions into your
life of these unwanted visitors.

	My only response to your point of
view is that I wonder if world opinion would
reflect your own when pressed to calmly
accept the reality of alien beings and would
their first reactions towards these beings,
right after the initial shock, be mistrust and
resentment also?

	Would we then want them to go
away after not a short while so that we could
go on with our 'natural' lives, in an attempt to
try and forget our utter helplessness and
inferiority in the presence of these beings?

	I suppose if the aliens were to be
intergrated into our society, they would have
to give us reassurances that our sense of
well-being would not be threatened.

	There seems to be a few hurdles
left to overcome...

Again, thank you for your time,
Ted MacLeod.
