Stanton Friedman never clarified just how the above is accomplished.
(Perhaps because it cannot be?)  I don't accept everything he says
as gospel. I do, however, consider it entertaining reading. ...And
that's what it's all about. He is well know among UFO circles, and
has made some of his material available to me. End of story.

That's ok, I've decided to make my presence there known. It's gotten
to the point I need to do my own "defending." It's all a head game
over there, and you should have picked that up. It's all about insults
and one-upperisms. It is pointless to argue with them. You will see
what I mean as I continue to post there.

It's no problem to me if it's no problem to you.

That's fair enough.

My netmail address is at the bottom of all my messages. You can send
me netmail direct or routed through the gate. I am 1:379/12, and have
been nodelisted since April. You can also send it care of 1:379/1,
which is another common way of sending netmail (through the hub).

Jack
