In all sincerity, I humbly and rightly stand corrected. In retrospect it is probably the Meteor Observers group which had that restriction.... My Bad.... Thank you for the kind chastisement. I'll endeavor to rely more on my archive text than faulty memories of flame wars past. I remembered the administrator's admonishment but it was the wrong administrator. UFO subject matter hadn't appeared on this list in so long I confused the list I was addressing. The aforementioned, imaginary, list policy has been discredited and removed from the head of the undersigned. My emotional maturity had nothing to do with any opinion over the existence of alien life nor its discussion here at Meteorite Central. To prove it, I ask forgiveness of anyone who thought I was intruding in list policy, it was done so in error.
Public apologies to Rosemary; whom I've have already apologized to in private and asked to reconsider her decision to leave, and the list at large, to Michael, and the Association and the Academy (of Science) etc. , and anyone else who was offended my my error. For the record I tried to make it clear that it wasn't a dig at Rosemary and wasn't meant to hurt anyone's feelings. It was not intended to suppress legitimate historical or mythical interpretations of the event in question. On a more humorous tone, I stand aside. Let the close encounter accounts begin. Because this is an open topic let me be the first: I have some un-identifiable material, of unearthly origin,analyzed, by an unknown but reputable lab"- that was recovered from BOTH an undisclosed location near both "Area 51" AND the Roswell Crash Site (sic)( Yeah I know, one is in Nevada and the other is in New Mexico but what's a little 800 mile strewn field discrepancy for something this important) which was extracted from crash site debris by an un-known top secret government scientist and given to a un-known brother to smuggle to an un-known mother of an un-known friend who sold it from an un-known Souvenir stand at Burning Man--to another personally known friend who showed it to me because I was interested in meteorites (<-meteorite related) And gee...I missidentified it as a melted melted 7-UP bottle enclosed in a melted Clorox bottle... So not the first blunder I've made. With provinance like we have I don't know why I don't already have it on Ebay or turned over to the National Enquirer.
