I guess you're saying that the investigative journalists and TV
magazines, etc., will be the first ones to bug Genesis III and
Village Labs for the video segment or for it plus its story.  But
I suppose they could fend them off and when ready give their
presentation straight to the Fox network?  But if they instead
feel that the evidence is so firm that they can risk letting it
go to the CSICOP types first, I think they'll instead learn that
such types will make whatever kinds of misrepresenntation are
necessary to debunk it.  The stronger the evidence, the greater
the amount of false claims that need to be made against it.  Yes,
I find it sad also.
