Subject: Celebrity Believers

Dan Ackroyd was a guest today on The Rosie O'Donnell Show today
(10/7/97).  He spent a few minutes promoting his "Soul Man" sitcom,
and then Rosie said, "I believe you share an interest I have - UFOs."
He spent the rest of his time on the show talking enthusiatically about
UFOs and even showed a copy of Budd Hopkins' _Witnessed_.  He
suggested to Rosie that she have the woman from the book as a
guest on her show.  (Please do it, Linda!  Then maybe the "Witness
Anonymity" posts will finally dwindle away.  Ha!)

Rosie stated again that she is a believer, but that she doesn't think
the Alien Autopsy Film is real.  Dan agreed, and said he thinks it was
a rubber dummy that "some guys in England filmed to try to get
famous."

The Rosie O'Donnell Show is very popular and has a very large audience.
Budd Hopkins couldn't have PAID for better advertising for his book.
To have UFOs discussed so openly and without embarrassment by
show business personalities of their statures on a G-rated, successful,
non-tabloid type TV show was quite surprising and refreshing.  Will
wonders never cease!
