Between the JMP letter, Cooper's petition, Philadelphia Experiment fans, the mind-control crowd (including that psycho in Berkeley who said the gov't. owed him $14 trillion for using his brain), and all the rest, the federal government must be getting pretty tired of finding this sort of thing in their mailboxes! Has anyone heard of Senator Pell? If he's really interested in the paranormal, as he seems to be, has he actually come up with any valid data, or is he just another one of the Lear/Cooper/Grace/Commander X crowd? ---------- paper : James Shaffer Jr., 37 Brook Street, Montgomery, PA 17752 uucp : uunet!cbmvax!amix!vanth!jms (or) rutgers!cbmvax!amix!vanth!jms domain: jms%vanth@amix.commodore.com CompuServe: 72750,2335 quote : ATTENTION ALL PLANETS OF THE SOLAR FEDERATION: WE HAVE ASSUMED CONTROL -------------------------------------------------------------------- From: keith@pecan.cray.com (Keith A.

As you may know, they are MUFON investigators who have investigated the Gulf Breeze case closely in the past and up to the present. Recently, our affiliate correspondent, John Hicks, made reference to the possibility that Rex and Carol, previously advocates of the authenticity of the Gulf Breeze UFO, might be having a change of heart due to recent evidence discovered in their investigative process that sheds a different light on the credibility of Ed Walters and the infamous Gulf Breeze UFO pictures. The controversy is centered on the finding of a model of the Gulf Breeze UFO discovered some months back in the house that Ed and Francis Walters lived in during the period of time that the UFO photographs were taken. According to reports received, the model is a very striking likeness to the UFOs portrayed in the photographs. This model was constructed with a type of construction paper used to detail architectural drawings for building plans, and the paper contained plans for a home that Ed Walters was being contracted to build. Walters responded that the plans were of a home that he was designing to build around Labor Day, 1989, and that the plans were drawn after his sightings, therefore, the theory that the model being the model used for the photographs doesn't check out. Ed further slammed the critics as being the culprits in planting the model in the attic to further discredit him. However, Rex and Carol Salisbury, being impartial and forthright investigators not willing to buy into something just because everyone else does, decided to further investigate this and have discovered some very interesting things which do not do much for Ed Walters' case. It is Rex's belief that due to numerous discrepancies found in the actual drawings and the circumstances surrounding them, that the drawings were not originally drawn up in 1989 as Ed alleges, but were drawn up in 1986 or 1987. The original house that the plans detail were for Lot D, Williamsburg Estates with an address of 712 Jamestown Drive. However, the house was eventually built at 700 Jamestown Drive, a corner lot. Recently, Mayor Gray, called a meeting and disclosed that the original plans for 712 Jamestown Drive, the actual plans that match the plans contained on the UFO model, were missing from City Hall records and had been substituted with plans for another house, indicating that someone had come into City Hall and pilfered the records. Rex talked to the caretaker of the library at City Hall who keeps the building plans, and discovered that shortly after the model had been found, Ed and Francis Walters came in and stayed for about five minutes. Ed claimed that he had to leave to go get his glasses. He left and later returned that afternoon alone and stayed another five minutes and then left. It is suspected that someone in concert with Ed used the side door to the room where the plans are stored, and came in and exchanged the plans that afternoon. Rex also points out that the tapes of the conversation of Tommy Smith with Mayor Gray were subjected to voice stress analysis by two independent sources. It has been determined by both sources that Tommy Smith is telling the truth. Smith, as you know, alleges that he was involved with Ed in the hoax. Finally, Rex points out that Maccabee's dates do not jive. Photos 22 & 23 were allegedly taken on February 8, 1988. However, in the MUFON symposium proceedings of 1988, there is a discrepancy in these dates as reported by Maccabee in two different areas. One shows that the photos were taken on February 8th and the other states that photos were taken on January 26th. Dr. Willy Smith alleges that Budd Hopkins was visiting on February 8th and spent all day with the Walters' thus making it necessary to change the date to January 26th. Very interesting indeed. What is of utmost interest here is the people involved in this. If it turns out to be a hoax, what is left is several highly placed individuals holding the bag. For example, Bruce Maccabee and Budd Hopkins, who, at least as far as Maccabee is concerned, have staked a lot on this case. Hopkins makes the necessary disclaimer in the forward of Ed's book, however just his endorsement of the case has placed him in a very awkward position with it. And, finally, MUFON. MUFON has done the most damage to the credibility of the UFO field by buying into this hook, line and sinker. As you may remember, there was so much strife over this Gulf Breeze case that a large contingency of MUFON's heirarchy either resigned or was fired by Walt Andrus because of their negative response to MUFON's alleged "scientific" investigation of the case and subsequent endorsement of its authenticity. It leaves very big questions such as motivation for how these individuals could be "duped" so badly. As you may recall, some big money changed hands with Maccabee and Andrus as part of an arrangement with Ed Walters. Perhaps these issues should be investigated a little more closely. Although we still do not have all the answers on this one, Rex and Carol will keep us informed at ParaNet of the details as they become available. ParaNet asked Rex if it was true that he and Carol were resigning from MUFON before Walt could remove them. Rex did not make a comment either way on this, however if things hold true to the past performance by Walt Andrus, we could see them looking into MUFON from the outside.

The field is very powerful at molecular distances but diminishes by the seventh power of the distance so that the force becomes negligible a few microns away from the hull. ... [The field] lowers air friction tremendously when it is necessary to travel at high speed through an atmosphere. Thirty-six years ago this was obviously total malarkey. In 1990, with some of the stuff that's going in in theoretical physics, it's not so obvious any more. -------------------------------------------------------------------- From: Michael.Corbin@f320.n207.z1.FIDONET.ORG (Michael Corbin) Subject: Re: The Salisberrys Date: 23 Oct 90 20:40:00 GMT In a message to Michael Corbin <10-21-90 22:32> John Hicks wrote: > Rex tends to look for evidence you can hold in your > hands, read or glean from personal interviews.

Isn't this plausible? When you see a jet flying at cruising altitude, you are watching something travel roughly 650 miles an hour, which is only about 75 miles an hour slower than the speed of sound. I get the impression from the eyewitness accounts that the objects in question were travelling at a MUCH faster apparent speed, and therefore had to have been way beyond the sound "barrier".

Depending on the procedures of a municipality, there may be another set of plans filed at the county. Also, to get a mortgage on new construction, the bank or lender would require a set of plans. The lender gives it to an appraiser who would appraise the dwelling based on the plans. The appraiser will most likely return the plans to the lender and the lender will file them. Plans from the lender aren't public records but the mortgage papers are so it can be determined which bank holds the mortgage and therefore, the plans. (Isn't Ed Gray associated with a bank? Maybe the same bank?)

Just about everything that arrives in a government office is date/time stamped. Something to look for.

Rex said he'd found that the incident really did occur, and that he found no evidence of a hoax. Also he said that the person who may have been though to be connected with the incident was in Gulf Breeze, out of radio range, at the time. Of f course it's easy to transmit on any freq in order to perpetrate a hoax, but I understand the same voice was also heard at other times on telephones.
