I'm sorry, but has Casbolt not been thouroughly discredited as a fraud/nutter? I know it's not nice to say, but that, too, is part of the continuum.

Scrap that - I just realised it's the crappy security and big-brother style filters on work that are stopping me getting it.
Oh well, it'll need to wait till i get home then.

If I were to ignore anyone who was 'thoroughly discredited' according to the standards here at ATS or elsewhere - then I would be missing out on lots of valuable information and experiences.
You might want to think about this before making your own assumptions about people like Casbolt. At least read what he has to say before rejecting it?

Duncan, I appreciate your measured respose to my comments, but I have to take issue on a couple of counts. First off, my conclusion was derived from my reading of his web-site, which makesome bizarre claims, to say the least. I have poked around the subject a little...to the point where got uncomfortabley close to things and backed off. I still feel that Casbolt is feeding the 'fringe industry'.
Secondly, ATS does not in and of itself 'discredit' a topic unless an investigation is set up by the site owners. Contributers present their opinions...for better or for worse. I speak for myself, and not for ATS.
Still, thanks for bringing the subject forward, and please continue to do so. I, in turn, retain my right to offer comment.

Everyone who has stuck their head above the radar and claimed inside knowledge has been discredited somewhere on the internet, and most likely at ATS - but nothing I have seen has been nothing more than conjecture and guilt by association etc.
I don't necessarily agree with, or share the conclusions and assumptions that Casbolt has arrived at as a result of his experiences, but I do believe he is being truthful about his past and his family. If you take the time to read his 'book' you will see that he provides lots of 'evidence' that has not been available in previous web postings.
There are plenty of people who will say I have been thoroughly discredited on the internet as a neo-nazi, anti-semite, Libyan agent, shape-shifting reptile, freemason, CIA agent, nutter - but they are all wrong. So you can see why I ignore similar claims made about others. I base my judgements about credibility of people by my direct personal experience with them, not gossip based on agendas and ignorance.
My unpopular support of Dr Steven Greer, for example, is based on a couple of decades of dealing with him, his organisation and the witnesses/whistleblowers he has attracted around him. I have personal experience of Greer and his projects that directly contradicts the ATS-supported personal assaults on Greer's integrity, motives and morals. None of the people who flame Greer have had any substantial dealings with the guy or his witnesses or his organisation - so why would I take their opinions seriously?
If I were to ignore anyone who was 'thoroughly discredited' according to the standards here at ATS or elsewhere - then I would be missing out on lots of valuable information and experiences.
