French space agency to publish UFO archive

[PRG believes this is a significant exopolitical development.
It's the "other shoe" to the 2000 COMETA report. It
represents another "message" from a foreign government to
the United States that patience with the U.S. led truth
embargo is short.]

PARIS (Reuters) - The French space agency is to publish its
archive of UFO sightings and other phenomena on line, but will
keep the names of those who reported them off the site to
protect them from pestering by space fanatics. Jacques Arnould,
an official at the National Space Studies Center (CNES), said
the French database of around 1,600 incidents would go live in
late January or mid-February.

He said the CNES had been collecting statements and documents
for almost 30 years to archive and study them. "Often they are
made to the Gendarmerie, which provides an official witness
statement... and some come from airline pilots," he said by
telephone.

Given the success of films about visitations from outer space
like E.T., Close Encounters Of The Third Kind and Independence
Day, the CNES archive is likely to prove a hit. It consists of
around 6,000 reports, many relating to the same incident, filed
by the public and airline professionals. Their names would not
be published to protect their privacy, Arnould said.

Advances in technology over the past three decades had prompted
the decision to put the archive on line, he said, adding it
would likely be available via the CNES website www.cnes.fr.

PRG Supporter Passes

Sadly, PRG has lost another supporter from the 2002 independent
congressional campaign in Maryland with the death of Jim Peters
on December 14. As reported by his friend David Lindahl, "Last
April he was riding his bike from Boise, where he had been
meeting with the Governor and top legislative leaders on
legislation to introduce advanced technologies into the
marketplace to reduce fuel consumption and pollution. It was
dark and he was on his way to a farm where he was staying about
10 miles from Boise when a guy about 25 and intoxicated swerved
to the side and hit him at 55-60 mph. He made an amazing
recovery but apparently a clot from one of the surgeries caused
a stroke and took him out. I never met anyone with Jim's
persistence and dedication, truly an amazing guy."

That persistence enabled Jim to gather one of the largest
tallies of the 5000 signatures required to get on the ballot in
the 2002 election. He was always positive, upbeat and filled
with ideas for how to make things happen. The other loss from
the 2002 crew is Wesleyan graduate, Peter Morgenstern-Clarren.
Both made some history that fall and will be missed.
