The softening of public perception probably began after the HG Wells barometer test. I wonder how many movie/tv show scripts have been subsidized clandestinely since to desensitize public perception of OFOs/ETs...?
Intentions? We may be nothing more than pets in a global terrarium. The far side base maybe just the broadcast end of a galactic wi-fi camera they get to watch us on their desktop for a nominal subscription fee. Because the fish in the tank can see you on the other side of the glass doesn't mean you should climb in the tank and treat them as equals. -john -----Original Message----- From: OrionWorks [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, July 25, 2006 10:24 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [Vo]: OT: Buzz Aldrin comes clean [snip] The question I keep asking myself is will a "disclosure" happen overnight or will the process actually turn out to be a gradual transformation, one that when the historians look back took decades to slowly manifest through the collective minds of the planetary population.

But we will never know, not until we can open up a public dialog with "them."
