Fellow Listarians,

Richard Hall has been my friend for a long while now. We
disagree on many points in Ufology, but agree on just as many.
He is, in fact, my mentor. OK, my Aristotle, in Ufology. I'm I
very proud to admit it!

Damn, but he's taught me a great deal and I hope I have been a
good student and fellow researcher.

You see, Dick is a living and walking history of where we, as
the interested masses in Ufology, began and currently reside.

I've read the criticisms directed against him on this List and
others. Although I grit my teeth and hold it at times, I know
Dick can well defend himself against anybody else's slings and
arrows.

I know the true story behind Dick's current woes and I was
saddened that he had to swallow his pride and go public for
help. I'm sorry you had to do this my friend. I know how
difficult it was to do.

As to everyone even mildly interested in Ufology as your
mountains of words on UFO UpDates attest, it is your time to
literally put up or shut up, as to how much Ufology means to
you.

Trust me, there are not many of the first Ufologists with us.
Dick is a fountain of knowledge, stories and humor. Send as much
as you can initially to Dick and remember each Christmas and
June 24 a nice monetary donation. If you're rich, a big cheque to
our living history of Ufology. The rest of us (we used to have a
middle class...sigh), go without a weeks worth of entertainment
and send the same whenever you use his vast published works to
enhance your own research.

Why?

Because he is the grandfather of Ufology just as Major Keyhoe
was the founder. Everyone has to bite the bullet and actually
follow through. This time, no choice... do it.

It'll make you feel Good and make your own research more
rewarding.
