The Robert Lazar Timeline As Assembled from Public Records and Statements...Version 1.30, January, 1997, Originally released July, 1994 by Tom Mahood
This project began as an attempt to verify Robert Lazar’s story of “vanishing records”. What was uncovered was not only a multitude of records, but records that portray an individual and story very much at odds with that generally accepted. Some of these records appear to contradict statements made by Lazar.
Tracking the links back to Reddit, I was surprised to find a number of current discussions on Lazar and his veracity. Sadly, there were quite a few posts saying how they believed Lazar’s story and he was the “real deal”. And I’m pretty sure many of those posters were small kids or not even born when all this Lazar stuff first went down years ago (Ummmm….What’s a “newsgroup”??). This was all news to me, as I quit following the subject 20 or so years ago when I started my graduate work in Physics and realized the basic science elements of Lazar’s tale were something well beyond wrong, and moved in other directions.
First and foremost, I need to touch on the basic science in Lazar’s tale. In the world of scientific research the harshest insult that can be leveled against someone’s work is that the person “is not even wrong”. In other words, the research or theory is so bad it really can’t even be discussed coherently. If I were feeling charitable, and I’m not, I suppose Lazar’s story may just barely reach the “not even wrong” level.
As for my beliefs, I happen to think that UFOs are a quite real phenomena. I’m not inclined to take any strong position on just precisely WHAT they are, but I’ve read too much and know too many well-connected individuals to dismiss them. And beyond that, I think it’s highly likely we are in possession of some sort of “stuff” from this phenomena from “crash recoveries” or whatever. Finally, I’m sure there are at least a few very dark government programs dealing with this sort of thing, but Lazar never worked for any of them.
To wrap this up, I’d like to leave you with a quote, reportedly straight from the mouth of Lazar, related to me by someone who once knew him: “The more incredible the lie, the more people will believe it.“ Thus speaketh the Bob. On this one point, I guess I gotta agree with him.
“Bob Lazar made up his entire cockamamie story about the UFO that he saw in a building inside Area-51. He was never exposed to any classified information, facilities, or programs in his work area.” ~Dr. Eric Davis
“As if Lazar’s verifiably false claims deserve a public stage. It was impossible for Lazar to do Ph.D. level work at LANL because he only had a high school education with a C average grade, thus he had no education or training to be a scientist. He did not take high school physics. His job was radiation health monitor which did not require security clearances so he did not get access to Area-51 since his workstation was at the off-site logistics support facility which is unclassified. He’s also a convicted felon in the state of Nevada.
“In civil society having been charged with and convicted of a felony crime in a court of law by one’s peers directly impugns one’s credibility, truthfulness, and obedience to the law. These three items go to the heart of why some people fail to earn security clearances. Lazar never had security clearances to begin with because his EG&G job at the unclassified, physically disconnected Area-51 logistics support facility didn’t require security clearances.”
It is all BUNK. Not one shred of evidence has been put forth to support this story: No diplomas, no résumés, no transcripts, no memberships in professional organizations, no papers, no pages from MIT or Caltech yearbooks. He also mentioned, in a phone conversation with me, California State University at Northridge and Pierce Junior College — also in the San Fernando Valley, California. I checked all four schools. Pierce said he had taken electronics courses in the late 1970s. The other three schools never heard of him.
I just see a bunch of quotes with peoples opinions, where is this evidence you speak of?

Character assassination? Lazar is a con man. The "BS" video is based on facts THAT ARE OUT THERE!
While you have every right to believe whatever nonsense you want, don't be so gullible. Research takes time and you need a desire to find the truth. Do you have what it takes? Because the facts are out there if you bother looking:

'You can lead a horse to water, but you can't make it drink'
For those who saw Corbell's documentary, "Bob Lazar: Area 51 & Flying Saucers," remember the "raid" that took place at Lazar's business, United Nuclear? Turns out that had absolutely nothing to do with Lazar's conversation with Corbell and had nothing to do with his supposed discoveries at S-4. Turns out the raid was planned before they even had that conversation. The raid pertained to a homicide investigation, due to poisons that was sold at Lazar's business.
In the case of the Bob Lazar raid, two different persons will look at the Laingsburg Police report and end up walking away with two completely different perspectives. One will sit back and see the atypical nature of the FBI’s search of United Nuclear Scientific as vindication of Bob Lazar’s claims of having worked on secret UFO technology, and the government’s commitment to keep this extraterrestrial Pandora’s Box closed. Conversely, another will say how the report confirms Bob Lazar as a ne’er-do-well, seemingly surrounded by nefarious happenstances, and exactly the type of person who would create the whole Area-15/alien technology hoax.
The Author (Tim McMillan) sums it up well in this statement as to why it is seemingly so difficult to get the truth of the enigma that is Bob Lazar - both sides seem to take something away that substantiates their view, including this incident..
No, you said the evidence is there to prove he is a fake, where is it?

Where's Lazar's "PROOF?" It's a tall tale..a fabrication. Believe what you want, it's all good.
What are you going on about, i am claiming nothing. I'm actually still on the fence about Lazar so i am not claiming he is telling the truth.

Well, if you want to dispute the information as non evidence...fine. And don't deflect my question. You're quick to state that the there's no evidence proving Lazar isn't a fake, so give me evidence. The fact is you can't, because his story was based on lies. He played you, as well as many UFO/extraterrestrial believers and that included me...but no more. If you think Stanton Friedman is less credible than Lazar, than there's no sense in me convincing you. Like I stated to others...believe what you want.
So basically he's insane? Don't see it myself, he seems very intelligent.

There's no doubt Lazar had some fun in his early years. Personally, I think he inhaled too much jet fuel vapors from his rocket powered bike years.
