This message by Bob Shell shows that complete "convincing"
fakery methods/hardware/software is available to anyone who
wishes to become rich and famous by showing UFOS, reconstructing
the death of JFK or showing Clinton "doing it" with an alien.

As far as UFOs are concerned, imagery of any kind photo, movie,
video, has rarely, if ever been sufficient proof of the
unexplainable. It all falls back on the witnesses.... unless
there is some very sophisticated physics captured in the imagery,
which would not have been known to a hoaxer.   At any rate, the
ability to create convincing fakes (each year, more convincing)
amounts to throwing more rocks in the path toward the truth....
it takes time to climb around the rocks but we do it!

So, if anyone sends me an electronic fake... or even a
real...anonymously, I hope they don't expect much action from me.
If a hoaxer wants to go the whole 9 yards and provide a story
along with the fake, he/she had better be prepared forn a long
and thorough grilling, complete with life story, etc.   THE
BETTER IT IS THE HARDER I LOOK..... and I take my time...
investigations can last weeks, months, even years. So, if you've
got a lot of $$$ invested in a fake, you better be able to wave
it bye bye.
