In the recent past (5 years ago or so) this conversation would have been dramatically different than what we are reading here. There would have been two distinct "sides" to this issue. One side would be the true believers, who no matter what, would believe this story and the other side would be the cynical skeptic who, no matter what would NOT believe this story. That "audience" was a whale of alot easier to perpetrate a hoax upon because of their close mindedness on BOTH sides.
Today, here at ATS we have a NEW BREED of membership IMHO.
Very open minded people capable of discussing this issue with little or no emotional baggage or irrational dismissal of it. Open minded yet very logical.

Here is a breakdown of some of the agencies and organisations that have visited the Serpo site since November last year. The vast majority of these were in December and this month, January.
Department of Homeland Security
Sandia National Laboratories (Government-owned, contractor-operated facility with ties to Homeland Security)
US Customs and Border Protection
US Dept. of Defense Network Infomation Center
US Air Force Academy
UK Ministry of Defence
Federal Aviation Administration
and of course: The Defense Intelligence Agency
By far and away the most inquisitive of this list are Homeland Security and the DIA, with 31 and 27 seperate visits respectively.
Speaking as someone who has done a lot of tracking down of perps (in the form of hunting spammers and scammers as part of a "white hat" team), I think those are just fans or people who were passed that info and looked into it on the "oh geez, Marge... you wanna see how stupid people get?" basis.
Having lurked on the fringe of the hacker community in my time, I can say that any investigator with real investigation on their mind would and can easily pick up a very innocuous IP addy through a number of semi-legal ways. They've got their own geeks. If there were investigators there, they'd be coming through something as ridiculous-appearing as a common AOL dialup IP.
Not boldly tromping in with a .mil, .gov addy. That just tips the hand.

A brief update just to add the CIA to the above list. They visited three times last month and the same again so far this month.

it must be remembered that any contact definately would be suppressed by the defence agencies ( to maintain cultural/religous/economic stability as a prime concern of national security), as far as they could...

I was only talking about names not addresses. I will wait to see what other people say. Think I will ask the moderaters see what they think.
I am an Owner, and in the event you may miss my "additional points" in my post above I want to make it clear that we DO NOT want the list posted here.
Thank You.

Interesting thread. I have found on the web the names and E-mail addresses of the people on Victors list. I would be happy to post the names but not the addresses on this forum if people think that is ok.
I'm pretty sure that posting that list would definitely be inappropriate. Also, those lists you found are probably the ones from oct/nov -- the list has grown significantly since then.
More importantly, there are a few people on this forum that are on Victor's list and have seen the mail list in its entirety. There's really nothing to be learned from it.

Your excellent caveat, "as far as they could", is my point exactly... I simply don't believe that would be "far enough" to have kept it this secret for nearly forty years.

That is an example, of course. For all I know he is or isn't on the list, but I and others would certainly like to know!!!

Yes. It is wrong to post the personal information of someone, or a private list maintained by a private person, online.
Ethics should not be hard to understand.
