the fact that it was ever taken seriously by anyone is what astounds me far more than any of the photos.

email from Dr. Keith Edwards:
Hello all,
First off, apologies for the delay in getting back to the many mails I've received over the last few days; I've been on vacation and am just catching up with my email.
I have to say, the rash of email I've received has caught me somewhat off-guard. I want to let you all know that I'm not the "Isaac" many of you have asked me about. The comments on my website about "using alien technology" were meant to be something of a joke. Xerox PARC, where I used to work, had a reputation for working on advanced technology projects; that, coupled with my interest in Roswell lore, led me to post that comment on my page.
I'm sorry for any confusion this caused. I wish you all the best of luck in your search!
Sincerely,
Keith Edwards
Associate Professor
Georgia Tech

On the other hand there is no copyright notice on the images, but it would be fair to assume that these are copyrighted works.

Doesn't matter. They are still subject to copyright. That's one of the changes that was made to copyright law a few years ago. It used to be you had a statutory copyright once it was printed, but had to register the copyright with the library o congress to establish precedence for your claim. Once you got the copyright certificate you could prove it was yours by the date. Today the law has changed so that you are protected by copyright immediately.

Anyone on a boat in international waters?
[Edit to add: It might be a way to make someone come forward and identify themselves and claim the items.]

This could be a great excuse to finally buy the ATS Yacht!

Just because we dont know who owns the copyright for these images doesn't permit us to make money out of them. There was an attempt to pass a law that would make it legal to use copyrighted material if the owner of the copyright cannot be found or contacted. It was the rather vocal opposition by photographers that prevented it from being passed (I hope I'm right about this part). On the other hand there is no copyright notice on the images, but it would be fair to assume that these are copyrighted works.
