If the "flying disk" press release was an act of collosal > stupidity based on simple misidentification of any kind of > balloon wreckage, Col.

While this has not been proved beyond a doubt like > the press release and Blanchard's subsequently successful career in > the AF, the evidence overwhelmingly supports the allegations that > whatever debris was recovered was then air transported elsewhere. >In light of this evidence, I have to conclude that something >extraordinary did occur at Roswell 1n 1947. >Vince Vince, to say I am surprised is an understatment. I applaude you on your conclusions. They are well stated and thought out. Needless to say, you and I disagree on other topics, but on this one, I stand firmly behind you. REgards, Mike
