Barney revealed that he was placed in a large tube...like a tunnel...on a slab....."They" were going to take a picture of him (Hmm..MRI?). And the kicker, the Marjorie Fish starmap in three dimensions revealing trade routes....with the mystery "star"...the, at the times of Betty's rendition...previously entirely unknown category of nearest red dwarf...in the approximate right holographic position.Zeta A and B reticulum were two of the others.
Now for an Afro-American businessman with little science background, and his high school education wife with even less...I think they really lucked out by lying about and clearly describing three independently confirmed future advanced technologies years before they appeared in the annals of science and technology. (Betty had the scar from the needle...and both were told that they could be "found" if necessary in the future by implants...RFID tags anyone? Ciao. Pete
