RSF - I can totally understand how many people would think this a fake (and true for that matter) it's a wild story to say the least. I also think it's cool that counterpoints be brought up (like ufowatchdog) because whatever the truth may be, it'll present itself despite lies eventually, and it's good for discussion of possibility. The one thing I've noticed that seems to be at the heart of the matter in the assessments of the actions of others like in Dr. Reed's case? The lack of understanding a human's heart. Maybe that's just how he does things? Maybe he just believes that everyone should pay him for this information now, especially if it's true that he got beat and friends & family messed up too? Maybe he's just using a marketing that is proven to work a bit at least & he wants to travel the world and tell his story now for his job. I've also noticed there isn't many openly "rich" ufologists or contactees are there? It would seem one of the best off is probably David Icke and & he sells his information about politics & history that has at least a large amount of confirmable truth in them. So does that discredit him now too because he charges and has a business plan? Nope...
Either way, I know I sure hope that this case proves to be 100% true. It resonates so well as a true story way better then a convoluted hoax (who made the ET damn it!?
)
