When did this become a discussion of scientific method? The philosophy of the "Burden of proof" seems a little irrelevant to me. Sanat stated many times that if you do not believe in the event then the discussion as far as he is concerned is meaningless. Call that what you will but in the end it means he's not trying to convince. He's just speaking of opinions. You may conclude from that yes that you do not have to believe him if you are inclined to do otherwise.
We all know that if we demand scientific proof of this event or of channeling in general then you're going to get disappointed. It's the reason E.t's do this through channeling in the first place. So people remain free to disbelieve. Obviously if they are in fact in orbit they could just call you on your cell phone.
Lets keep this discussion on a level where people state their opinions and form their own opinions. Lets not invoke the scientific method it is arguably invalid in matters of spirit and consciousness anyway.
We wait 2 weeks and then we will know.. That much is for sure.
Kathy I don't know what you're sitting on. But maybe the best approach would be to forward it to the administrators on this forum? They can forward it to the project camelot people. If you tell them about your uncertainties then they can judge for themselves. If you ask to remain anonymous I'm sure they'll respect that.
The alternative is to just post them on the internet. The disclosure project or wikileaks are two specialized sites. And then let the crowds sort them out. Depending on the risk to your personal safety it might be wise to do this from an internet cafe. I don't know what you have so I cannot judge. I'd recommend against just posting or privately messaging it to strangers, (that includes me) in good faith especially if you have any reason to believe there are people who do not want this to leak out.
