Of course they are. Just the names of the compartments I was briefed into is in fact SCI. My point is once you're talking about information restricted above a simple TS clearance, all bets are off. There is no hierarchy of information such as level 30 above TS, level 31 above TS etc... That is pure bunk. I don't expect detailed information of SCI compartments to be available in the public domain, but when someone makes the specific claim, using the specific phrase, "X levels above TS", it sets off the BS detector. It's inevitably comes from some UFO conspiracist that can't even prove they were in a position to hold a clearance. You'd think if there was such a system, there would be anecodotal evidence somewhere. A footnote perhaps ?
But there is nothing.

Let's see your proof you're who you say you are.
What's your source rating ? What NECs do you hold ?
What is your current command and UIC ?
If I had a nickel for everyone I've met that claims to have been SF I'd be rich.

That is probably why you call Bob Lazar a fraud, because of the limits.

Then it is safe to say you are compartmentalized, and you don't know EVERYTHING.

And forgive me, I don't want to supply my current command and unit identification code.
But like I said, we have our privacy concerns in the public, so we have limited ways to prove ourselves.

I see what you're saying.
The problem is it's a circular argument.
"There are gradient levels above top secret such as 20 levels above ts, 21 levels above ts etc"
"But nobody knows about them because they are classified 20 levels above ts"
ROFL
edit:
I've given this some more thought and what about this:
For compartmented information to be categorized above or below other compartmented information, someone or some authority would have to know the details of all current compartmented information to make this determination.
There is nobody that has access to all SCI material in the govt. Not even the President or SECDEF. It would defeat the purpose of compartmentalization.
So I think that's a good syllogism outlining why there cannot be "levels" above ts.
Anything compartmented at the ts level is sensitive. Some compartments may have tens of thousands of people. Others may have less than a dozen. But there is no way to label one compartment above another unless you want to talk about compartments within compartments, but I don't think it's reasonable to believe that compartments within a compartments could go on for 30+ iterations.

I dont believe thats unreasonable to put into play. The bottom line is this, say you have top secret clearance now. Does that mean you'd have access to "recovered vehicles" as it pertains to this discussion? My guess is absolutely not.
Compartmentalized info, black over black under black.

Has this been stated by Bob Lazer or did he say that the greys live on planet #4(or serpo I think) in the zeta reticuli system???
Bob said that in the briefings he read at S-4 that it said that the 'greys' come from Reticulum 4, the fourth planet out from Zeta Retuiculi 2. Bob never mentioned the name 'Serpo" which I believe to be a fabrication for an upcoming information scam about Reticulum 4 and the greys.
I'm aware of the rotational characteristics of the moon. I've taken university level astronomy. Dark side of the moon is just a phrase. I admit I'm in error if your so called soul collector is not on the far side. You say it's photographic and scientific fact this 6 mile high tower exists. May I ask to see evidence ?
Secondly I would like to say from researching Bob Lazar I came across "project serpo" so i looked that up, this is were I found out about the majestic 12 and the finer details of project serpo. It was stated that it's called project serpo because the planet was called serpo. I know that the files Lazar read only had numbers for the planets but i'm sure someone perhaps from the planet named them.
I would like to know if you have any comments or futher statments about project serpo.
Getting cleared for the amount of access that is discussed on this thread would require someone to sign off for Lazar's interim clearance until his official investigation is adjudicated. I would like to know who granted his interim clearance, who investigated him, and who adjudicated his clearance. I hope that someone can at least post what agency did any of these to help prove his claims. That is if the process is the same for these talked about higher level TS clearances.
I would like to see any of the people involved with his clearance come forth and talk about it. I don't care about the people that worked on these projects(if it really happened), I care more about the folks that let him work on these gov't projects with or without a proper clearance.
Here is what I can put together from reading all these posts. They let Lazar walk in, without a proper background investigation, and work on the most highly classified technology we have, then let him leave and talk about it to the public.
What do you think would happen to someone who did this with stealth technology before it was released to the public? I think he would be locked up for life or executed. This is a point that I find hard to understand.
If Lazar really worked on classified technology those who cleared him should be arrested and put in jail for letting him talk about what he did. Somone(s) gave him the go ahead to work there. So have any of those folks been charged yet?
Mr. Lear there is not nor has there been two S4 location in or anywhere near groom.
Bob first "visit" to this so called S4 research facility was in fact on a bus with no windows where he was blindfolded until ordered to remove the blinder, which was only after he was inside the main facility receiving room.
Who told him he was in S4....
He was given the drug panel then..
He was brought there and was allowed to see some "engineering samples" then he was asked some theoretical questions about advanced propulsion.
They took down some notes.
They asked him to try and think of how it could operate and then was escorted "off base" again.
They brought him back for a total of three visits over the course of four weeks.
on the last visit he had another drug panel with a different cocktail this time.
several years later Bob would begin to leak a distorted vision of what he saw.

George Knapp is the Television News Reporter who broke the Bob Lazar story and consequently brought "Area-51" into the public mind back in the day. George is very straight shooter and very serious investigator that doesn't get impressed easily.
I've gotten to know George over the past several months through hundreds of personal emails between us and I assure you he believes Bob Lazar has much "under the surface" that he doesn't express in public.
Since you asked for "personal opinions" one Bob Lazar here's mine...
One of the things about Lazar that has always kept me on the fence about him is the fact he has not ever tried to capitalize on his fame. Not once has he tried to sell a book, TV or movie deal, DVD, he doesn't even hit the "Tin Foil Speaker Circuit" for the lousy few bucks you can make on that lowest level venue AKA "UFO Conventions"...
Every other hoaxer, con man, charlatan, and true believer with a story that has achieved any notoriety at all has at least gone and done the cheese ball derby at the UFO Conventions. NOT Bob Lazar though.
Those who claim he is a "Disnfo Agent" have not kept up with his latest round of persecution from the Feds, I simply don't buy that angle at all. The government is pretty lame when it comes to doing anything well but they aren't that incompetent.
A real Disinfo Agent's general assignment is to deflect attention away from something. Assuming the USG wanted to deflect attention away from their latest generation military gadgetry back then they certainly wouldn't have used Bob Lazar and they sure as hell wouldnt have allowed him to take people out to the Papoose Range to watch said gadgetry FLY, IMHO... Not to mention they would have made sure Bob was disclosing pure bollocks instead of actual produce. Element 115, no matter what anyone says about it was talked about 20 years before the public was allowed to know about it by ONE MAN, Bob Lazar.
The critics rant about the fact the stuff doesn't "stay" in this reality for more than a few seconds and that's true but it doesn't alter the FACT Bob Lazar told us about 20 years ago and these same critics were laughing at him and calling him a loon back then because they said it was a fairy tale element, "could never happen" and so on.
Bob Lazar is one of the "enigmas" that defies easy explanation out of hand. He's one of the most interesting cases in UFOlogy IMHO and I don't think we'll ever really know exactly what that means to us.
