Hi, Just to say that UFOIN will respond to the postings about our crop circle memo such as the one above. I simply here wanted to note that turning what was clearly issued as a statement by the UFOIN team into my personal plea (as alleged in the above posting) is misleading. If it were my personal plea then I would have issued it onto this list as such and I clearly did not. The statement we posted indicated that it was issued by UFOIN (a team of 20 experienced ufologists - half of whom are highly published in the field and most of whom are well known to fellow ufologists). The team includes several pioneer researchers in the crop circle field. That is an important difference from this memo being issued as my personal plea. Indeed, because it is NOT my plea for sanity, but UFOINs,I have to collate responses from the rest of the team rather than simply issue my personal reaction here. But I will post responses - and they will be comments by the team. So please bear with me - and do appreciate that my name is there on the memo only because I posted it onto this list... Although I should emphasise that I do, as it happens, personally support the memo that we issued. Best wishes, Jenny Randles
