Interesting, how the dupes of the government/media complex will always bleat and scream...

...when exposed to new and contrary information.

And even when it isn't in any field of their own "expertise". Maybe, especially when.

The bleaters might do themselves a favor and examine the controversy surrounding the infamous Brookings Report of 1961.

Arthur Clarke and Stanley Kubrick, well acquainted with that document, collaborated to produce a film that would sink into the minds of a generation inculcated by their government not to accept the evidence before their very eyes. (It didn't help that the government altered the evidence wherever possible.)

"2001" -- The classic 1968 movie depicting a future "NASA�s" history-changing discovery of extraterrestrial artifacts � which it then promptly "covers up" � because of National Security � including, from the very astronauts sent to investigate the evidence themselves!

Arthur C. Clarke himself said that there must be a period of preparation before certain disturbing truths can be revealed to the public. Did their movie jump the gun? Or was it part of the, ah, preparation?

Most folks, as we see, prefer to dodge the larger questions.

  orejones,
  
  The March, 2008 "Alien Digest" reports: "The good news is the brain shrinkage rate has slowed considerably and the flatulence has reduced to 31 cu. ft. @ 4,200 ml/cu.ft. of butylic acid methane per day. Fortunately for "Mr. J", he's now under the care of the grey, big-eyed human aliens and not the scaly lizard type who botched that brain transplant operation on him in 1988. Mr. J, known for decades on Mars as an enthusiastic supporter of analytical anal probing of humans, recently donated $42 to the Olympus Mons clinic."
  
  It's very kind of you to express the concern we've all had for Clark's continuing mental and emotional decline.
  
  Cheers,
  
  Bambi B
  - It's a shame you should say that. Why? - clarkjohnsen 08:45:00 05/15/08 (0)
    Because it betrays a woeful ignorance of the topic, overlaid with an unbecoming sneery schoolmarmishness. And if that's true here, then what is one to think of the "expertise" that you portray yourself as having, elsewhere on these fora?
