As a former UFO scholar who at present must confess to having acquired a
somewhat jaded perspective on the entire sociological phenomenon, please let
me rant for a few seconds.

I luv these kinds of "film at eleven" reports. They come off as so
incredibly exciting, and yet the substance of the announcement remains
completely unsubstantiated! Just who the hell was Mr. Cohen talking to? The
same "sources" that have kept Richard Boyland informed for all these years?
While I've never met Cohen I have met Boyland. I know Boyland has had his
own unique CE4K experiences/encounters. Boyland seems like a nice guy. But
nice guys aren't necessarily informed individuals. For all I know
individuals like Cohen and Boyland could be nothing more than clueless
patsies who have allowed themselves to become completely enamored with the
"drama" of it all.

Mr. Cohen's announcement strikes me as nothing more than spin.

Under current circumstances, what the hell can BO really say on the subject
of UFOs that would be of any practical use to most U.S. Citizens. For
decades I've heard all the speculation that the government is clandestinely
attempting to "acclimate" the general public to the existence of UFOs and
aliens. It certainly sounds nice and dandy. To be honest I seriously doubt
that's what's really happening. I doubt our own intelligence gathering
operations can yet agree among themselves as to what UFOs are, let alone
whether some of the objects are piloted by aliens. Without a doubt, I'm sure
it's a given that certain government organizations have acquired strikingly
better pictures of UFOs than what we, as citizens, can ever hope to snap
with our Best Buy digital cameras. I'm also convinced there exist government
officials who are absolutely convinced that UFOs are real, that some of
those UFOs are even piloted by extraterrestrials. But top-secret super
resolution photographs and radar signatures that the government keeps
carefully concealed doesn't automatically translate into acquiring a greater
comprehension as to who or what is behind the curtain. We have to ask
ourselves: Why do such reports remain concealed after all these decades?
Obviously, not because there's nothing out there to report, as most
debunkers want everyone to believe. It's more likely the case that
government officials studying the phenomenon simply don't know THEMSELVES
what the phenomena really is, period. I bet they are still bickering amongst
each other. Just like out in the world that you and I live in, the
phenomenon continues to be open to personal interpretation particularly
since all such experiences end up being filtered through our own cultural
backgrounds. A government official who is also a born-again fundamentalist
Christian is likely to interpret UFO phenomenon differently than a colleague
who has found the relig'in of atheism to be far more palatable.

So, Toto, if you MUST push the curtain back, don't expect the majority to
pay any attention to what the old man might have to say.

PS: Terry, I seem to recall you telling us that you were once involved
within MUFON, that you even held a high administrative position within the
organization. In an attempt to set my own pessimism aside for a spell, what
say you about this report? Anything you'd like to add? Inquiring minds want
to know! ;-)
