The later article, dated Dec.18th, 2010, is notable on several counts. First, it is focused on a single, well defined scenario, the detection of a
radio signal from space, which has allegedly already occurred. Second it speaks of a fairly long period in which this news is withheld from the
public. This happens to be very like the established SETI protocols. These call for a careful, thorough process of confirmation before a general
announcement is made. The signal would have to persist over a considerable time, be received by independent observers, and every possible natural or
manmade explanation ruled out. If the signal is ambiguous in some way, it might take a substantial amount of time to finally prove that it originated
with another intelligent species in space. Third, the article puts forth the scenario that most UFOs come from the same source as the radio signals. I
have never before encountered a definite disclosure prediction that links UFOs and SETI in this way. Fourth, A reference is made to the arrival of the
time in which humans have been sufficiently prepared to receive a definite and undeniable extraterrestrial contact. This seems to refer to a specific,
very plausible scenario called a 'leaky embargo' in which we are allowed to observe fleeting evidence of extraterrestrial intelligence at Earth,
such as UFOs, without being given enough evidence to stand as proof, as far as most scientists, and many others are concerned. After this continues
for some time, the possibility or supposition of the presence of extraterrestrial intelligent life at Earth becomes likelier and likelier, until
preparation is sufficient. Fifth, the final, convincing evidence comes as a radio signal from a distant star. There may be some interesting psychology
in that. The most shocking news is not shouted into our ear from someone standing next to us, but is whispered to us from afar. Its effect is further
softened by the delays imposed by the scientific protocols, as referred to above. Ross
