I sometimes agree with Bob. This is one of those occasions. His is a very reasonable line of thought. When it comes to the ultimate questions we are all stuck with speculation, some of which can be far more reasonable than others. My own thinking (especially after reading the Carey-Schmitt book) is that the military and obviously the president were faced with sudden, undeniable proof of alien visitation without having a clue as to who they were, where they came from, why they were here, or what kind of danger they posed to humanity. Cover-up as a decision at that point is extremely easy to understand. - Dick Listen to 'Strange Days... Indeed' - The PodCast See: http://www.virtuallystrange.net/ufo/sdi/program/
