Q: Why did they take 9,000 lbs of supplies but no microscope – although they took three telescopes?
A: Not clarified. Good telescopes would have been necessary to make accurate astronomical observations. (Note: the 9,000 lbs figure was subsequently amended to 90,500 lbs.)

It would have to be ammended, 'cause it didn't add up. Although I find the 90,500 number even odder... now we've gone from 4.5 ton, 9000 pound simple typo (45 ton, 90,000 pound) to 45.25 ton 90,500 pounds *rolls eyes*
My numbers still don't include water.
Two years worth of water would have been another 46,000 pounds (and that's less than the "minimum" daily requirements)

There is too much talk, where are the pictures, videos, evidence and full disclosure.
Im giving up on this crap
I think that most of us have tended toward the skeptical side since the very beginning of this whole ordeal, but all I know of is the promise of pictures -- I don't recall anyone saying that "full disclosure" or videos were on the way... so I'm not raising my hopes unrealistically (or even noticeably) high. There's no reason to hold your breath, waiting for some grand event to occur. Although, you should feel free to speculate wildly on anything you've seen, read, or thought up to this point
As for me, I'm researching a whole different topic on ufology at the moment. Sure, I check my email, ATS, Serpo.org, etc. regularly, but I'm not in or out on Serpo until more is released.
If Serpo leads to disclosure, I think we'll all be more than a bit surprised. If it doesn't, then we just go on. While we're waiting, if you get bored, read this article on why Alpha Centauri might be able to harbor life.

I don't see why we should expect them to take basic material that could be refined/found elsewhere. Heck... one would expect that a race that can build a half mile long spaceship could also afford the Culligan Man.

Much of the stuff have to be remade then, the EBE's have bigger eyes, no thumbs, smaller body etc. etc.
On top of that, the EBE's apparently used very different measuring scales, so everything actually had to be made from scratch, and that had to be hard since they couldnt understand them perfectly.
So please... no more of this 'Serpo has been proven to be fake because the team members don't have my taste in donuts' stuff. And... please... no more of this 'Serpo isn't real because it conflicts with my pet theory' stuff.
Ebe #1 was the crash survivor from the craft found in Corona, NM in July, 1947.
Ebe #2 was the first exchange of an Eben scientist and was the second visitor left on Earth. I don't know the exact time period of his stay.
Ebe #3 was a female scientist.
J-ROD was a cloned Eben, created by the Ebens, who came as another type of visitor. J-ROD is a very complicated matter and the entire story will never be made public. The exact type of entity J-ROD was shall remain classified as "Above Top Secret."
Let your exclusive UFO Thread List membership know that this subject matter is closed and no future questions regarding this topic will be addressed.
Why s/he or it was named J-ROD is classified. People have speculated about that, and officially it means something, but that information shall remain shielded from the public domain.
ANONYMOUS: I will NOT supply that information.
For your information only (not for public view), Ebe #1 visited Washington D.C. in 19__ and stayed at _____ _____, _____ in a special _____. He did not meet with President ______ .

[FACTOID – Victor Martinez:
The final segment of CLOSE ENCOUNTERS OF THE THIRD KIND which I viewed does have 12 people, 10 men and two women. Twelve people are also the number given in Spielberg's book version.
However, I got around to reading the end of Spielberg's paperback version of CE3. It reads the same as the movie except for two interesting things. The 12 Team Members are introduced as ALL MEN.
An additional dialogue not in the movie also takes place. They have a sit down with Roy Neary and have him sign a number of documents. While he signs the last one he is told the following:
"We have a possible problem in the area of canon and common jurisprudence outside of the parameters of our astronomy. The case could be made that you are, in effect, technically speaking... dead."
Is this a fancy way of saying that if anybody comes snooping around about what happened to Roy, they now have the legal right to tell them he is dead? Does that sound familiar?
"Spielberg tells me about the film. It's about UFOs, he says, but it is not science fiction. He calls it 'science fact.'"
COMMENT: Makes you wonder how Spielberg got the numbers and gender count right.
It is reported that after President Ronald Reagan watched a special screening of "Close Encounters of the Third Kind," he privately spoke to Steven Spielberg and said, "You don't know how true this really is." (The actual quote by President Reagan ) ]
know this is very interesting, i never really would think of speilburgh being told any of this.
Also i have yet to see the pics, and it is very strange how the craft never really had any windows. Except the one were the team member only saw the lights ("like we were traveling faster thanlight speed")
other than that, this was a really good read, keep it coming
one more thing about the communication used with both the humans and the ebes. You would think that since j-rod has been said to communicate by projecting images to the person and speaking in peoples head that the othere ebes could have done that to the team members. Or was it just that since j-rod was a clone he was special.
