I guess why, because there was no alien handed to people on a golden platter.

But if you just looked at the release of files, I thought, this is absolutely fascinating.

I was totally into it.

There was one PDF after another that many of which I'd known about.

There's Project Blue Book Special Report Number 14 was in this tranche.

And that's been out for many years, but I will bet you that most people have never read that report.

It's a damn good thing to read.

And there was lots and lots of other...

fascinating uh old army intelligence documents from the 1940s that proved that these guys were not only uh taking the subject of flying saucers seriously but they were talking about when is the next wave going to occur like they're actually getting into this and uh i just think if you just take disclosure out of out of the uh equation for a moment and just look at the data as it was being released

Absolutely fascinating.

But we're at such a point in our society that we're so fractured, so fragmented, no one believes anything.

And then there's a large number of people out there who I really think their attitude is anything related to UFOs as a PSYOP must not be believed, which I think is a very destructive attitude as well, because I believe in the reality of UAP or UFOs.

And therefore I do believe that there are genuine sightings

that are absolutely legit and anomalous.

So I just see what we once called the community has just gone into every different direction imaginable.

And that makes me think, how the hell is disclosure ever supposed to happen?

I co-authored a book on this 16 years ago.

It felt like in a different universe.

But even in 2010, the writing was on the wall.

But we maintain the assumption, wrong assumption, turns out, that when disclosure would happen, there would be kind of a unified public response.
