One of the biggest obstacles to serious UFO study are witnesses who are unwilling to talk. In fact, it’s so bad… well… I don’t want to talk about it.

Of course, there are many reasons witnesses would be reluctant to come forward (not wanting to be considered a ‘kook’, figuring that discussing it will not solve the problem, etc.)
That doesn’t include the fact many interviewers have their own agenda as well, or are unwilling to admit that not all things have to be alien influenced either. I sometimes grit my teeth when people who study crop circles, for example, deny that humans are unable to make the really intricate ones…and then some team is hired by Discovery/National Geographic/etc…and make a complicated structure in the dead of night with just a few individuals.
VERY good point! Intolerance and narrow mindedness continue to be humanity’s biggest obstacles in any field.
I wonder if Mr Walston’s first name is Martin. Because then he might just be my favourite Martin.
Good catch. I was conscious of that when I named him. That was also the motivation behind the name of Betsy’s son, Martin.
