No not completely secret, it is just not official. It is a very different thing.

Yes, if it were completely secret, the UFO authors and speakers wouldn't have anything to allude to. If there were any real evidence, real historians would be interested and get something accomplished. But instead there's rumor, speculation, and innuendo -- that shadowy middle ground on which tabloid podcasts and late-night AM radio can subsist indefinitely.

So you don't have any knowledge of the disclosure project of Mr Greer ? Many people gave their testimony.

Of course I do. It's the same hodge-podge of testimonials that have been offered up since the 1950s in media circuses that always seem to open up commercial opportunities for some person. Of course you can't paint the witnesses all with the same brush. But the most interesting witnesses -- the ones who claimed to have been government insiders -- always seem to be exposed as frauds. Some people will do anything for attention, and UFO enthusiasts are not generally critical listeners.

Yes, Greer is out conducting UFO seances in the woods. I think the going rate for his rattle-shaking "seminar" is $700. It's not clear whether you get your money back if you fail to contact a UFO. You say you believe in people. Does he sound like the kind of person you should believe in?
