This is why the Phil Schneider story is so ridiculous, as well as Bob Lazar. I think Bob is an extremely smart person, but he uses this knowledge to create semi-believeable pseudo-science...he's like a glorified nerd having a field day with people dumb enough to believe him haha.
Okay so let me ask this...
A person... any person whether a Janitor, a cook or a top level scientist working at any such facility comes out to 'spill the beans'
What... in your opinion... would be an acceptable and believable story?
We all know places like Area 51 have top secret projects. Many at ATS believe there is something to do with Aliens or Saucers. So when someone comes out and says... "Yeah I was there and saw this..." what do people do? Well they ridicule them, they don't believe a word they say, and they make jokes about a persons character without ever having talked to them...
So in a sense we are our own worst enemy. There will NEVER be disclosure... EVER... because no one will ever believe what anyone says if it doesn't fit with what they THINK it should be. Short of dragging an Alien body out of a top secret facility... or hi-jacking a reverse engineered saucer and taking a CNN crew for a spin, NOTHING will ever be good enough evidence... NOTHING will ever be proof enough.
Funny thing is a janitor is an invisible person... and sees everything... and the cook... well any NAVY person can tell you that the ship cook knows EVERYTHING.
But as long as people have preconceived ideas about what the truth should be, they will never find any real truth... because they will dismiss and ridicule it all... to the point that no one knows what is real.
So yawl enjoy your bliss... and keep laughing it up

John Lear is about 15-20% real, rest fabricated after the fact. I also see that with many current 'insiders' their original story has merit... then as they enjoy the notoriety, they seem to feel the need to add things as they go, which in the end only shoots down their credibility.
Bob told his story then left 'the field' as it were. Bill Uhouse had one story, but in interviews he added answers to questions based on what he thought they wanted to hear... His main story was highly detailed and never changing... the rest was filled with contradictions. So all that does is muddy the water and make a believable person turn into a 'crackpot'
They are all getting old fast... so now we add memory loss to the equation... and since the stories are picked up, regurgitated by endless websites, twisted around, stuff added to the mix... well soon these guys will all be dead and the only 'evidence' we will have left is the twisted versions that are most prominent on the web. And any smidgen of truth will be so buried it may never see the light of day.

10% here and 20% there, before ya know it, you have enough info for a statistically significant bias...
That is if you are open minded.

Knapp swears by Lazar, only because he talked to other Area 51 employees behind the cameras who confirmed Lazar's presence their.
Me believe Lazar? I do but the only question I have is why the hell he and his wife owned a brothel???

he's no actual knowledge of nuclear physics which has been verified by an accredited actual theoretical physicist.
And according to Norio Hayakawa in one incident he was found laughing when Lazar attended a lecture about Area 51 and people were talking seriously about S4 and that sort of crap.
The whole brothel thing, from I've read seems to be a misunderstanding as Lazar was installing video-surveillance equipment.

I have read a lot of stuff over the years. Would be nice if people backed up what they say they have read with a link... so one could evaluate the source of such material. Just because someone wrote it, or said it, doesn't make it so.

go out and do the research then, none of us are writing a thesis for your sole amusement and pleasure. I never seen you back up your sources either, and if it is it's with woo woo fluff.
