     Hmmm, for something that's no threat to national security, 
there does seem to be a rather large cloak of secrecy wrapped 
around them under the guise of "national security".  
     Now, you know me as a skeptic (skeptibunker?).  But I tend 
to find myself in the middle, equally skeptical of both sides.  
While I know of no evidence that indicates without doubt that 
there are or ever have been alien visitations to Earth, I also 
know of no evidence that shows there haven't been either.  This 
is a difficult position to be in - equally distanced from both 
sides of the discussion - but it is, in my never humble opinion, 
a rational approach to the question of an alien element being 
involved with these events.  
     With the NSA's response to CAUS compared to the above 
statement, I think I have reason to be skeptical of the 
government's position (or lack thereof) as well.

     *chuckling* ... some admission.  Er, was it an election 
year?
