Dennis Stacy,

I was absolutely shocked to see the caustic criticism you posted
re Neil Morris on UFO UPDATES today. It must have been a bad
hair day for you! I had been told that you were a professional
and fair reporter. In my contacts with you that had been
confirmed. But your comments aimed at Neil were so unfair and
not founded in fact at all! You certainly are entitled to
challenge the findings of any researcher, but the mean spirited
comments you made were way out of line and I want you to know
that I resent them!

Let me give you some facts that may be helpful to you: When I
began the RPIT (Roswell Photo Interpretation Team) project last
May I posted a call on the web for volunteers with skills in
photo interpretation to join with Ron Regehr in pursuing an
in-depth Revisitation of Roswell, utilizing the Ramey office
photos of July 1947.

Neil Morris was the first person to answer that call. I looked
up Neil on the web and found that for more than 12 years he has
been a primary researcher in the Atomic and Molecular Physics
Group, Department of Physics and Astronomy, University of
Manchester in Manchester, England. Some of his group's research
areas include experimental quantum dynamics, millimetric wave
and infrared spectroscopy, and atomic and molecular deflection
experiments utilizing the first fully computer controlled and
optimized spectrometer. Neil is responsible for adapting and
maintaining all the computers and other technical equipment used
in the department.

During the past six months I have found Neil to be as dedicated
and professional as anyone I have ever been associated with,
either in the military or civilian world. I have conferred with
him on virtually a daily basis and even though he works overtime
nearly every day meeting the demands of his day job, he always
makes time for his RPIT chores. I know for a fact that Neil has
devoted most of his lunch hours to pouring over the mysterious
photos of the Roswell debris on his exotic equipment. Then many
nights he has gone practically sleepless to probe even further,
always trying to solve the 51-year-old Riddle of Roswell.

During these six months NOT ONCE has he ever even mentioned how
he might be eventually compensated or given credit for his
astounding discoveries. Yet he has produced more results than
all the other RPIT members combined!

It is true that I first asked him to take a close look at the
Ramey Message and see if he could read anything. He did this and
came up with a very tentative reading. This he posted
immediately on his web site and invited the whole world to grab
a Ramey photo and see what they could see. Then the other RPIT
members joined in and published their interpretations of the
message on their own web sites. These all are linked to my link
page at:

Neil's discoveries are displayed at:

Neil has remained as the most conservative and cautious RPIT
analyst, never making any definite claims for the words in the
Ramey message but taking the risk to post his read right out
there on the web. And, I understand, he has placed himself at
some risk even in his day job due to his willingness to be
associated with this kind of UFO research.

And yet you, Dennis, had the gall to charge Neil with: "Between
the anachronistic retroviruses and Rorshach (sic)
interpretations of the Ramey message, you need to decide whether
you're a scientist interested in the UFO phenomenon, or a
believer of certain UFO shibboleths with a passing interest in
what is dismissively referred to (by many UFOlogists) as
mainstream science." Your pitiful comments remind me of a gnat
trying to sting a wonderful race horse!
