CSETI Background
**************************************************************
Dear Friends of CSETI Project Starlight,=20
This letter is to bring you up to date on developments since the
historic CSETI briefings in Washington DC for members of Congress
and other leaders held on 9 April 1997.
- 5 of 11 -      - UFO News International 34 -
The past 6-8 months have witnessed a number of promising
developments, with increasing interest from key congressional
leaders and congressional committees, as well as leaders in other
countries. Additionally, senior scientific leadership who direct
major operations at nationally significant scientific instituti-
ons are now looking into the extraterrestrial question in a
serious and thorough fashion.
Last month, we concluded preliminary meetings with these
scientific leaders and congressional staff, and are optimistic
that the subject of UFOs/ETI is finally being taken seriously.
Members of several Congressional committees, as well as the
chairman and chief of staff of a key House committee, have stated
that they are now convinced that the subject is 'real' and of
importance. We are continuing our dialogue with these and other
leaders and encouraging them to hold open hearings in the
Congress during the next term which begins in January.
This month we are sending a full briefing package, including
videotaped witness testimony, government documents, UFO photos
and film footage and other evidence to the chairmen of 15 major
Congressional committees which are relevant to this subject (see
enclosed letter). In this letter they are asked to reply to our
formal request for hearings .
Additionally, we are completing a proposal for a major new global
survey of extraterrestrial intelligence. This proposal, called
The CSETI Earth/Near Earth Extraterrestrial Survey, calls for a
major scientific real-time survey of UFO/ET activity using
state-of-the-art technology and rapid response capability.
Properly funded and executed, it would scientifically study and
document in real time UFO events globally. Scientists and
institutions of the highest caliber are currently consulting with
us on this project.
Regarding future strategic plans to effect a global disclosure
on the existence of UFOs/Extraterrestrial Intelligence, we are
at a significant crossroads: While continuing to provide
briefings, evidence and advice to the Congress, White House and
other national and world leaders, we must now make good on our
promise to disclose fully what is know about this subject to the
public. To 'privatize' the disclosure of top secret witness
testimony  and other evidence will require several world-class
documentaries and books coordinated with a world scientific
gathering and press conference.
While we certainly have the materials, evidence and witnesses in
place to fulfill such a plan, funding is another matter. Most
likely, these documentaries and books will need to be funded
through a business endeavor since it is clear no benefactors
exist to fund such an undertaking through a non-profit entity.
>From a practical point of view, the minimum required to effect
such a privatized disclosure, including a broadcast quality 2
hour documentary, two books, the world press briefing and a
- 6 of 11 -      - UFO News International 34 -
scientific gathering to review the evidence is approximately $2
million.
If you know of any individuals or entities who could help with
such an undertaking, please contact me as soon as possible.
The release of definitive evidence and top-secret testimony
through such  a multi-media plan - if done properly - would
constitute a disclosure of significant proportions. It would very
likely then lead to the  congressional investigations and
hearings for which we have been calling.
Strategically, it is unwise to continue to allow governmental
foot-dragging to delay any longer the release of information and
top-secret witness  testimony. The obvious advantage to Congres-
sional hearings is that they would be taken seriously, seen
widely and would be funded by the Congress If we must, as a
civilian group, achieve much the same goals through a private
multi-media effort, then substantial business and financial
support will be needed. The resulting products must be first-rate
and be positioned to avoid the tabloid, lower-end media. =20
Certainly, we are ready to move into the public domain with this
disclosure process and look forward to your comments, ideas,
networking and general assistance in this important global
undertaking.
Wishing you the best of all worlds and a time of Universal Peace,
Steven M. Greer M.D.
Director of CSETI enc.

Anonymous mail to Ufomind (Glen Campbell)
I am convinced that aliens have infiltrated the Dutch government.
I can proof this statement by reports about several secret
meetings, held by a number of creatures from outer space. Soon
I will make public an alien conspiracy, which has a dutch
revolution as purpose. I can not sign this message because I am
being watched by the BVD, the secret intelligence agency of
Holland.
Our minister of Foreign Affairs is just losing it a little bit,
that's all - HvdP
