To the best of my knowledge, Adamski's photos and films have not been proven to be fakes, regardless of what the Debunkers would have you believe. Why do we automatically accept the idea of Universal Life, some capable of possibly sending and receiving radio and other types of signals into space for US to receive at some point... Some capable of Interstellar and Interspacial travel to this planet... And then, when someone comes along and says that they actually had such an experience, we automatically jump on the debunkers boat and say "they are a fake". They can do more to harm ufology than SETI setbacks. This is precisesly the viewpoint which Major Donald Keyhoe took as head of NICAP. He believed that UFOs/Flying Saucers were real, but did not believe that they had "living beings" as pilots. Give me a break...You can't have it both ways. Either they are or they are not. If UFO/FLYING SAUCERS are real, then they must be piloted at some point. Possibly some are/were remote controlled craft, but at some point they must be piloted!!!! IF we can't accept that thought, then we have no business persuing this field of thought much less commenting on it. I personally take the point of view that: The Multiverse is Inhabited by Innumerable Life Forms of various stages of Evolution; physically, mentally, spiritually. How many are beyond us? Who knows...but in my opinion, some or many are. Who am I to define their capabilities? I can't even drive a car which does not have wheels. I am still earth bound. Yet, I and others like me sometimes make statments which show our lack of objective understanding in the broad view of this phenomena. REgards, Mike, the Un-Expert.... ICQ#:7508455. (502) 683-6811
