|
|
|
|
Not bad judgement Jack, more like the report was ill-equipped to handle
|
|
the kind of scrutiny we've put it through.

|

|
|
What else are we supposed to do Jack? In a field such as this,
|
|
misinformation runs rampant. When we as independant investigators find
|
|
flaws and loop-holes that do not get explained to our satisfaction, are
|
|
we supposed to blindly accept whatever is told us? Do you want us to
|
|
just accept the words of a here-to-for unknown group as gospel? Come on
|
|
Jack, independant verification is the life-blood of all research. If
|
|
one's findings can-NOT be independantly verified, then said findings
|
|
MUST be viewed as inaccurate. So far, not ONE claim made in the K-2
|
|
Report has been verified, other than static data. (ie the name of the
|
|
mountain is Pilot Peak etc etc..)
|
|
|
|

|
|
JM> bit disappointed that the *Team* chose not to respond to the files
|

|
|
|
|
Nothing has been disproved, that I'll grant you only on the grounds
|
|
that I've not received confirming data on Pilot Peak. One of the key
|
|
claims made in the K-2 Report involved the Magnetometer readings, and
|
|
those are what I, and the SUFOG are working on now. However, too many
|
|
of the statements made in the K-2 Report have been shown to be
|
|
seriously flawed. This you cannot dispute.
|
|
|
|
JM> I, myself, am considering responding, in sorts, to Joesph in
|
|
JM> regards to his messages and also to the file released by Michael
|
|
JM> Corbin in which he addressed Don Kircher's 10/23/92 report because
|
|
JM> I still feel that something should be said. I do not believe for
|
|
JM> one instant that the book is closed. After all, unless one
|
|
JM> experiences something it will always remain hard for others who
|
|
JM> haven't, to believe.
|
|
|
|
If the Phoenix Project refuses to back-up, or at least attempt to
|
|
explain some of the problems noted in the K-2 Report, then we must
|
|
assume that these problems are such that they cannot BE explained,
|
|
other than by admitting that the report is bogus. "Silence is an
|
|
admission of guilt." That statement is upheld in most courts of law,
|
|
and I believe it has relevance here. I look forward to hearing from
|
|
you. Remember the key items we're interested in...
|
|
|
|
1. The F-4's scrambling from a base that has never operated fighter
|
|
aircraft of any type. How could this be "verified" ?
|
|
|
|
2. The memo referancing a document that would not be received for 2
|
|
more days.
|
|
|
|
3. The lawyer attempting to incorporate the Phoenix Project who's
|
|
office is the same as the mailing address of the Phoenix Liberator.
|
|
|
|
These amongst many...
|
|
|
|
Joe.
