Dear Steve,

I don't want to start an inter-continental war here, but I was
curious as to whether you were referring to your experiences
with the American UFO community.

Being an Australian, I have to say there is very litttle if not
none at all, of this destroying of characters and bitter in
fighting here.  Sure personalities do clash, but we have tried
to unite to research as a productive unit.  I wasn't aware of
this mud-slinging in Ufology until I joined a few US mail lists
and corresponded with American reseachers.

I'm not trying to bag you 'murikans' :), just offering sympathy
because it's hard enough here fighting the prejudices of
the general public and govt departments, let alone fighting
with those with whom you should get the most support.
Hey, perhaps you should move down under? :)

Good Luck where your life takes you now, and we hope you find
some peace in your adventures

Cheers
Sharon K
