We have proven conclusively through the work of Mr. William G. Hyzer [and his son James] that photograph #19, the famous road-shot, is without question, a double exposure. Mr. William G. Hyzer was given 10-photographs. In his preliminary report, he stated of the other nine photos, that while not being able to conclusively prove that they were double exposures, also showed signs of double exposure. This leaves us with a final conclusion, Mr. Murgia: photograph #19 has been conclusively proven to be a hoax. All the other photographs thus taken by Ed Walters are all suspect. There is no other evidence to support the validity of the Ed Walters photographs. Ed Walters has refused to take a polygraph test given not only by myself, but by Rex Salisberry and also one of the editors of the leading newspaper in the Gulf Breeze area. Referring now to your comments about Art Hufford and the object he saw; Mr. Hufford saw an object in the sky for a few seconds. His wife, who was interviewed by another UFO investigator, stated that she only saw the object briefly, for a split second. Because her husband was driving, she claimed that he could see it for only a split second also. Both Mr. and Mrs. Hufford produced a drawing for anyone and everyone to see. This drawing was shown in an article about the Gulf Breeze/Ed Walters case in UFO Magazine some years ago. Again, Mr. Art Hufford stated to a UFO researcher -by telephone- that he did not see any windows on the object. His wife also stated during the interview with a UFO researcher, that she did not see any window on the object. All I am saying to you, Mr. Murgia, is that I watched Art Hufford on national TV at least two -possibly three- times, saying: "Ed, I saw the same thing you saw." Obviously, we have to go by the facts that we have. And the facts are very clear: while Bruce Maccabee tries to imply that the size and shape of the object were similar to Ed's makes no difference, Art Hufford and his wife perceived -in a split second- an unusual object which had no windows on it. Thus, when Art Hufford was on national TV twice saying that he saw the same thing Ed Walters saw, he was lying and continues that story to this day. You will have to call Art Hufford and ask him why he said on national TV that he saw the same thing Ed Walters saw. But there is no way, based on the evidence and testimony given by Art Hufford and his wife, that they saw the same thing allegedly photographed over Ed Walters home. Mr. Murgia, if you would like more information on the Gulf Breeze case, I invite you to call me at the number I have provided on every letter I put on the internet, and I would be happy to discuss any problems or questions you have about Gulf Breeze. But don't tell me that I have to prove every photograph to be a hoax. That is financially impossible and unnecessary. We have proven photograph #19 conclusively -without question- to be a hoax, to the contrary of what MUFON or Bruce Maccabee says. If you want to discuss this and look at this case objectively, you will see that there is no evidence to support the Ed Walters photographs.
