Luke Mullins presents the life and passion of Stephen Bassett. Reading this may provide more insight into Bassett and respect for his tenacity. He’ll appreciate the “money quote” from Garry Nolan’s interview by Ross Coulthart in Stanford Professor Warns Massive UFO Disclosure Is Around the Corner. TweakTown Science and Space Reporter Jak Connor has the relevant passage, and comments “It certainly seems that UFO news is heating up recently.” Jason Colavito seizes upon that same dialogue to dissect Garry Nolan’s Kindergarten Alien Encounter. Colavito compares details in the interview with statements recorded in Diana Pasulka’s American Cosmic: UFOs, Religion, Technology. Jason wants to show “the kind of slips and distortions of memory that skeptics have long argued make witness memories an unreliable guide to events without corroborating details.” This Colavito piece is remarkably free of verbal pyrotechnics, but the title of his next-day article has some heat. Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand’s Incoherent New Statement on UFOs perhaps makes too much out of an impromptu and hurried interchange after a “town hall.” (WM)
