So I've been gone a while and thought the same thing. From what I can gather of the last zillion or so posts, your answer would be a resounding NO.

Unless I'm mistaken the game is that Alienware did it because they have the deepest pockets, correct Mr. Config?

What happened to the synergy of Strieber/Moulton Howe tied into a big movie release or book extravaganza complete with Drone Happy Meal toys and posters for your bedroom door? That would have been cool, no?

Wasn't there a Tom Hall/King Isle/Dopefish angle? How about leviathan? Android or Syd, or Elijah, Virgil and the whole IA gang? Fox and that horrible Terminator series? The DRT and their PI's? I know I missed a few in there, but I can't keep track of them all. Any of that would have been more interesting than a corporate marketing ploy to push overpriced computers. But if that's all it is, why are we still here?

Haha! Good one, Michael!

But it does not really sound as if you are surprised, but rather as if you have been up to date all the time.

Don't get your panties in a bunch Manny. Is it really that important? It must get tiring singlehandedly saving Ufology from all the believers. I was only highlighting your tendency to implicate anyone who's ever drawn a circle with some squiggly lines on it as the droney masterminds. Good thing Euclid died over 2000 years ago, or he'd be in your sights as well I suppose.

Whitley's lackey? Oh that's grand.

Oh sure Reader, I check in once in a while, but it looks like I missed all the good stuff.

In the immortal words of Rodney, "Can't we all just get along?"

What would you guys do without the drones, anyway? Seems to me it takes two to dance, and you're here still doing the two step Sys.

Is it my imagination?

Or do I smell sour grapes?

There are enough summaries here and there between Ufo-blog.com, here, and even OMF, that lead to the same conclusion..Hoax, and without even minor exceptions, the same people..Hardly overactive imaginations with the establishmant of facts and even the same people, that the above commentary by a self described caual observer dropping in for morning cofee, hardly qualifies as anything but but sour grapes indeed..

When you are in a forum doing research, putting ideas out in an open and very honest framework ,, and some would call democratic way,..too open..versus what we had from the self appointed saviours of of the Drone meme, and we know they still are..I'll take the democratic way anyday.. as it invites more input..albeit runs risk of slowing things down..simply because all crazy leads with some connection..must be followed.To do less..and entrust to secretive inquiries and even deals....invites nothing but..disaster...If you went for popcorn..and missed the movie while standing in line..well thats not our fault..you will have to watch it from the beginning again..We are not paid, we don't charge an admission fee for reading and participation here as they intend to do..at the conference..for info readily available..something I am sure they will neglect to tell their patrons..

Calling us crazy or implying such is just a pathetic repetition of the very clandestine and evasive behaviour on their part since the beginning..Behaviour one could objectively call paranoid at being exposed..fearful of any opposing viewpoint ..especially when things did not seem to go their way. That was the apparent genesis of the DRT.at Numbers aka "Mumbles". idea as well that they corner the market and discussion, .according to PM i have in my possession from one of their other leading and founding members. n this no small tryst, ..When objective analysts like Torvald, and Marvin..OMF members were not buying the validity of photographs either...even when the very web ADM was backing up the hoax.., not forgetting of course ADM and numbers introduced it over there..so when it seemed they were clearly doomed over there, they created a new firebase..at the DRT.

In fact, clearly well established and well funded opposition that failed miserably at any real bonafide research , ignoring suggestions put it before a qualified laboratory when they had the where with all, (and indeed they did) foregoing sound moves any sane person with means would have done..It would have clearly ended it in one week for approx 5k....a lot quicker and astronomically cheaper than a DNA test for sure and paying the retired Keystone cops working even partime......but instead..They stunningly excelled at the marketing ploys by the very principals and their running lackey dogs above..Yes..solve it with talk..buzz..for two years..and now.. their contortionistic back peddling and barks now fall on deaf ears..

They got their wish..

WE have every right..to treat this behaviour with the very well deserved contempt it deserves..

As a Librarian..i merely point to where the books are, unless its a child or a handicapped person, something I know these people are not..though it is arguable, and I concede, they certainly need help now..

If someone fails to connect the dots..read what has transpired.that does not subtract from what has been established already..
I too say...well do your homework..

But above all...

If the shoe fits..wear it..

As Sidd pointed out, mthood seems remarkably well informed for someone who just stops by occasionally to harass Sysco. The timing of his first appearance here is also interesting. Two days after my own, which was the time of the upheaval at that other forum. Not too long after Sysco caught that "fake Whitley" posting over there. Hmmm. Nobody left here but us obsessive nuts and the damage control crew, I guess.

The original poster of that video used the name "roymartin911". Google search that name and you will find him asking people to star his video on a computer graphic website.

Why does "Roy Martin" sound so familiar?
