If you try to contact him or anyone else from ATS does for that matter and I loose contact with him I am going to be very pissed off, I will never go on ATS again, and I will talk about it on Coast to Coast AM and anywhere else I can. So I suggest everyone leaves Dr. Butler alone.
The images he took were with a digital SONY cam. They were as good as he could take! I told you for some reason it doesn't show it's true character in pictures! What more do you want from me?!

And you all wonder why people make fun of us.
YOU the researcher expect us all to believe that you not only have a piece of ET's craft, but that the Air Force humored you and brought various individuals in to meet with you. YOU the UFO researcher who's been doing this for 10 years then had to borrow a camera and take lousy shots of what could be anything. I doubt that even Wolf Blitzer could get such a meeting but somehow you managed it. Whats even more amazing is that as a researcher for 10 years you took genuine extraterrestrial artifacts and handed them over to the ones that are hampering your very research. THIS IS WHY THEY MAKE FUN OF US! THIS IS WHY IT'S HARD TO EVEN MENTION UFO IN GOOD COMPANY.
I am finished!

What worries me about this meeting is that these "bigwigs" were probably there to laugh at you. Most likely the good Dr informed those he reports too about the meeting, likely saying something along the lines of 'I'm meeting a guy to talk about UFO's and he says he's got a fragemnt of one' and they replied 'hmm, I'd like to sit in on that' with the intention of either discovering you had something important that you shouldn;t, at which point this would have been a very different thread, or more likely see it as something insignificant or just rubbish and leave the meeting and have a good laugh about it.
I cannot believe that you know no-one with a scanner or else have no internet cafes or the like in your locale that you could use to scan it. Library? I also cannot believe you know no-one with a camera other than a guy from a forum who then took terible pictures of what could have been amazing evidence. Didn't the place you had it anaylised take pictures they could provide you with?
I don't for one second buy that 'pilots like to buzz their homes in experimental craft' was the bit of 'private information' you didn;t want to share. Your explination that "It's just something I wanted to keep private, nothing more nothing less. I felt like it was something I wanted to keep to myself." is plain ridiculous. Why on earth would you want to keep that to yourself when this place is, and ostensibly you are, all about disclosure? And why would you describe something like that as being 'private'? That I simply cannot fathom.
Personally I believe that they didn;t look at the documents because if they even picked them up to browse, that would instantly give credence to the idea that they might contain something classified. They already knew you didn't because unless you were insane you would have released that info when you found it, not neatly put it in a manilla file and walked into their hands to pretty much say 'hey guys, look what I found!' a half second before the black bag falls over your head and you feel a needle in your arm...
I apologise if you consider anything I've said to be harsh or rude. I thank you for arranging the meeting, going through with it and coming back here to report about it. We need more researchers like you who put in the legwork, and maybe this could have opened a door to future meetings?
Just my 2p...

I honestly know no one with a scanner. The place I took it to be analyzed did just that.....they analyzed it, they didn't take pictures of it.

uforeality...i'm not sure if they have fedex/kinko's in your part of the country, but for a small price, you can use one of their professional scanners to scan the pic as a digital file.
thats one solution, so we can all take a gander at the reptoid pic.

Just my gut feeling after staring back at him with a "don't [snip] with me look"
