Project Blue Book Episode Seven -- Sonny Desvergers, the Florida Scoutmaster - A Different Perspective

History's Project Blue Book continues to attract comments and controversy. Kevin Randle continues his series of historical rectifications with the "real facts"--and the real mystery still-- of a 1952 CE2 case. Rich Reynolds calls Episode 7 Another Flawed and Execrable Project Blue Book Showing. Rich says "Why UFO buffs don't complain about History distorting their UFO lore (history) and data baffles the heck out of me." And Professor Diana Walsh Pasulka's new book American Cosmic: UFOs, Religion, Technology backs Rich. The chapter "When Star Wars Became Real: The Mechanisms of Belief" and in particular its reference to The X-Files should be pondered by any ufologist who smirks at the idea that such "Based on true events" programming doesn't produce confused memories in viewers. Alejandro Rojas' Project Blue Book Episode 7 adds more on the episode's actual, nonfactual content, and throws in some material on the March 1966 flap that produced Dr. Hynek's "swamp gas" explanation. Back to Kevin Randle for his dissection of Project Blue Book Episode 8 - Lights in Korea. According to Kevin, the offering "had virally [virtually?] nothing to do with Project Blue Book." As with his last post, Kevin here corrects some military "flubs" in the installment, then proceeds to relate a real, and very interesting, case. Alejandro Rojas is once again cheerier than Kevin about Project Blue Book Episode 8, apparently because "the most conspiratorial parts of it are based on fact" but has to stray from the tv script to explain this.
