Dear Fellow Extropians:
Having read Mr. Goddard's speculations, conjectures ( and possibly paranoid delusions)repeatedly, may I respectfully suggest that he consider reading Aristotle on scientific method followed by Blackstone on the rules of evidence.

Subject: NY Times Lies Re: Goddard

>The New York Times editorial "Conspiracies, Real

>"Mr. Goddard now says he INVENTED the tale [the
>Navy-Missile theory] to give the Government a
>'black eye.'" (emphasis added)
>
>I was contacted by Matthew Wald with the New York
>Times the day the CNN story hit, over a week before
>that NY Times editorial. I explained to Mr. Wald
>that I never admitted to perpetrating a sham or a
>hoax, that I have only presented eyewitness accounts
>and press reports pertaining to military activity

>I also sent him all the messages I have sent here.
>But nevertheless, the New York Times ignores what
>I actually say and instead they say that I said I
>invented the whole thing. Clearly, they chose to
>publish the false over the true. Why???!!

>This is a naked farce, a deliberate attempt to

>me to boot. Why would they do this? Other reports
>claim I wrote the so-called "anonymous Internet
>document," which was written by former 747 pilot
>Richard Russell. The unrelenting year-long sweep

>I have spoken with reporters who tell me they can-

>answer is given. All the major network programs,
>even fringe programs like HARD COPY, refuse to show
>the radar tapes, except a 2 second flash by Prime
>Time Live that prevented any meaningful perception

>the masters, has tried and tried to get media to
>show the tape, with no luck. It's authenticity is
>not in question. The FBI has conceded authenticity.
>It's a fact that Russell has inside contacts. The

>The evidence is clear that there is a clamp down

>a national security issue, and that under such,
>it's Marshall Law regarding the issue of TWA 800.

>Pointing in this direction is the fact that on
>the very same day (03/11/97) the FBI learned that
>Russell had the radar tapes, showing a possible
>Navy missile, and went to get the tapes, President
>Clinton signed Executive Order 13039, which excludes

>federal whistle-blower protections for reasons of
>"national security." The SpecWarDevGru is involved
>in the littoral (coastal) Cruise Missile Defense
>program which seems to be what was happening off
>Long Island during the "Global Yankee '96" military
>exercises taking place off L.I. on July 17, 1996.

>E.O. 13039 went into effect one day before the Paris
