It was obvious to anyone who knows you that you were talking about the phenomenon and that you weren't talking about the video. But to anyone who doesn't, the impression was that you were somehow in support of the video itself. It would be an easy assumption for a viewer who is unfamiliar with either abduction or your work to make. BTW, I missed the credits at the end and my 'review' was based solely on the 'quality' of the video itself. One more for Stan... I don't think many are going to argue about the 'content' of your statements. I for one was surprised to learn how open minded you are on the subject. I had never heard your views on abduction before. Speaking strictly as an experiencer, I found it heart warming! Warmest regards to you and your family Stan. Peace, John Velez PS- I am mad at UPN for not being -more honest- about this presentation. An awful lot of people apparently thought, (and still think) that the damn thing was real! Piss poor man. They ought to be called on the carpet for this one.
