Wow, ok you totally misunderstood what I said. First of all you don't beleive there is a species out there with interstellar capabilities. Why not? It is not within our realm of technology so it couldn't be in theirs? We are only 200,000 years old! What could we do with 200,000 more?

2nd you may not be scared of the idea but some are. I shouted in the dark and somehow you seemed to think I was only targeting you.

3rd They may have visited us, they may not have but either way isn't it worth some investigation? They might not want to interact with our amoeba farm. We do however build stuff and make things wouldn't that at least add a iota of curiosity to say an interstellar zoologist? Be skeptical all you want, but it seems to me you are ruling out the possibility entirely or staying well within the realms of the box if you will. In fact it seems the very word "Alien" appalls you, like you know everything that ever was ever everywhere.

That may not be the way you wanted to come off but it sounded like pure arrogance to me.

These people certainly have come forward and told great stories, and it gets your mind to thinking. At the same time they have came forward and told these great stories, they have not brought one important thing "proof" and with out that all they have is well just that a "story". People can say they have seen this and heard that, it doesn't make it true or real.

Look at religion, stories passed down from generation after generation, twisted and enlarged for greater meaning and greater response. Many people have died over the years due to these stories being told, twisted, bent and fabricated. Stories are all great, but they can also be deadly when taken out of context and without "proof".

This website brings in many diffrent topics, and many diffrent ideas, that is a great thing, but never and I mean never take it to heart without the proof. I actually like reading, and looking at the pictures and videos just so I can explain them to my daughter who is 9, and what I tell her is this, in this day and age anything can be made up and photo up'd to loook convincing, but it's not, always have an open mind, but no so open your brains fall out.

People should read Brad Sparks's excellent analysis of Philip Corso's background and his book "The Day After Roswell" before leaping to any conclusions.

www.ufologie.net...

Sparks' does his homework. Very few people in ufology have been as diligent as Brad. He not only knows the history of the field, but he's researched the history of the USAF / USN / CIA, US Intelligence agencies, and has a deep knowledge of radar systems & their capabilities.

The study of the unknown requires extra due diligence. We must not only accept what we want or believe, but what we can verify in some way.

Keep looking up folks!

However, in Part 8, Corso says that the NSA was picking up alien "intercepts" in code in the 1950's. Somebody ought to fire a note over to Seth Shostak at SETI and bring him up to speed.

Funnily enough, it is statements like the one referred to above, which place everything else that comes out of the man's mouth into question.

>> SETI didn't start until 1960, and a CODED message, might resemble noise if you aren't cracker jack decryption experts (which I doubt SETI is designed to handle) -- the NSA is top notch at decryption, and if the US doesn't do anything well, we at least can thank our skills at decoding things for many of our victories in WW II.

Exactly. When you listen to the testimony from several civilian and military sources, they will use the same excuse over and over. "We were visited by the men in black, and they told us to keep our mouths shut." I do not think that should be considered a viable excuse.

If someone wants to prove to everyone else once and for all that aliens and UFOs exist, it is your duty to provide tangible evidence for study. Unless the interviews accompany some type of evidence, videos such as this one is based up speculation and interpretation.

Even though I find that these interviews are interesting, I have always hated documentaries where the only evidence is through conversation or reenactments. Its all junk. (Don't get me started on shaking cameras of light moving through the sky.)

Show me a corps of an alien, show me an alive alien, show me a space craft that I can physically touch, but do not waste our time with junk.

My comments are not towards Mr. Knapp himself, but more towards the presentation of evidence in general. I do not mean any disrespect.

This guy contradicts himself over and over.

He says it was so hot that "sometimes we had to calibrate them twice a day"

and ends the next sentence with "we had to calibrate them at least twice a day."

----

He says the UFO was appearing and disappearing, and he was able to run out while it was gone, place bushes and a rock where it was, and when it returned and left again the bushes were smashed and the rock was broken.

Wouldn't that mean it would have to be landing and taking off?

If you time warp into matter does it push it down like if you landed on it?

----

Then he says the UFO takes off, then says it folded like an envolope and disappeared, then says he got the trajectory.

Which is it? Did it take off or fold in on itself?

If you look at my other posts, I'm a believer.

This guy just seems like paid disinfo, bigger pension if you make ufo believers look like kooks in your spare time.

I'm probably wrong, just a hunch.

That has always been my problem with corso. I actually emailed project camelot and asked them why they don't confront this guy on his stories. I also asked for creditable interviews they felt should be listened to because as for my research up to that point these guys can't remember all of the lies they have told which is why you get these multiple versions. No response of course.

I don't like corso, he discredits himself.

INDEED! THANKS.

This psychologist entirely agrees with you.

Highly trained listening and interview techniques in thousands of professional sessions listing to personal narratives kind of gives one at least a slight edge above the average person, I think.

And he comes across as quite authentic, to me, as well.

In fact, it would be relatively easy to trust him with a lot in a variety of tight situations.

I'm glad he was so candid. Helps increase my respect for him and for his story.

Antar, a psychic friend who claims she has seen and tried to communicate with one of my ET guides, says this is the closest sketch she has ever seen to the one she spoke with.

She say it is virtually identical the one who was here in my room one night. I was speaking with her on video chat, and then she saw the energy signature behind me and it lead to this wierd exchange of them talking to each other through her guide, and directly, and then at a request them leaving the room and getting in their ship and flying over 10 minutes later over a buddy and I, in a totally new direction as if to indicate they were indeed in my room. I am still considering this! LOL

So I suspect this image is a very accurate image. Apparently I am to be like them, not sure what that means. So do you know the race?

I should add, the reason I sent her the pic, is the moment I saw the pic I knew it was the same as she described to me. She did a sketch, but it was not good, she was having a hard time getting the head right, I think she said it was looking kind of square.

how a craft disappeared, and then he rambled on about another incident. You can see the confusion in his eyes.


Maybe he was hard of hearing, and had to piece it together. How old are you anyway? If you are under 40, then you have no idea.

If you are over 40, maybe you are fortunate, but some of us might have had a stroke, as in my case, and sometimes things do not recall as quick, I no longer seem to have a photographic type of memory I once had.

Just I see these comments, and I think, brutal, I mean not everyone thinks and forms thoughts at the same speed, and plus, the reason he survived for years was that he most likely considered things before he opened his mouth.

It was like our Prime Minister Trudeau one time, elderly in his wheel chair. A reporter approached him, and in about 4 words he sliced and siced the reporter and sent him packing. You assume much, sometimes there is the false exit, it is a control move, and he used that a number of times in this interview.

I think you are drawing too many conclusions to his abilities, but even so, it would be expected at his age.

Uh, Corso is dead. I doubt very much Camelot will get much of a response if they email him.

It's unpopular to rain on people's parades. Mass market writer William Birnes is listed as Corso's co-author on the "Day After Roswell." Birnes also writes on the paranormal, serial killers, and other sensationalist stuff.

Don't have a source offhand, but remember reading in print how Corso complained that Birnes has taken his accounts and embellished them with things he never said.

General impression is that Birnes interviewed Corso extensively and ghost wrote the book.

An aging Corso was caught in a common situation now of very late in life becoming a cause celebre due to his supposed UFO connections. And he ran with it, retroengineering his memories to satisfy the barrage of leading questions from believers.

My opinion, but shared with others with knowledge of advanced sciences and the military - the Corso book, though interwoven with actual events and experiences, is hybridized science fiction at best. Birnes found an opportunity to create a Roswell and UFO whistleblower out of a very old malleable military figure, and exploited it to the hilt.

People will ask where's my proof. I think the well tracked impossibility of the activities of Corso that conflict with all other accounts and timelines for one. The sheer preposterousness of the thechnological innovations attributed to alien technology is another. The development of these is documented laboriously, and many of those responsible are still alive.

Notably not one credible person who ever worked on or interfaced with supposed alien sourced technologies has ever come forward, though the scientific and academic world would invariably have consulted or advised on what would have been the most momentous scientific breakthrough of all time.

But actual history, common sense and reality tend to fly out the window in this area of discussion. The fact that so many people can talk about this stuff on camera and keep a straight face indicates they actually start to belive their own stories after a while.

It's all become a cult fantasy quest interfacing with real people and events. Fascinating phenomenon. Lots and lots of talk, but no still sign of any aliens.

Pathos, I really wonder the following.
Why you on one hand posted all these remarks and those others in this thread in order to point everyone over and over again to the in your eyes lack of any solid evidence at all of what Col. Corso has said in that video while you self on the other hand started threads like these.
