UFO FAQ (1994)

______________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________ Date: 29 Mar 1995 17:22:40 GMT From: Steve Gamble <sgamble@hgmp.mrc.ac.uk> Newsgroups: alt.alien.visitors, alt.ufo.reports, alt.paranet.ufo, alt.answers, news.answers Subject: alt.alien.visitors FAQ Last-modifed: 94/11/15 Distribution-agent: ldetweil@csn.org alt.alien.visitors Frequently Asked Questions This FAQ was last updated: 15th November 1994
The FAQ and shortened version, the MINI-FAQ were originally written for the Usenet Newsgroup alt.alien.visitors. More recently the FAQ and some of the a.a.v. messages have been cross posted to other networks. The FAQ will try to reflect this more universal distribution, but for now it is essentially the FAQ produced for alt.alien.vistors. The full FAQ is a very large multi-part file which is posted infrequently, but is available by WWW and ftp (see below). The MINI-FAQ is designed to be a single file which can be posted more regularly but only contains basic information.
The FAQ is the result of contributions from many people. The views expressed are varied and unless otherwise stated should not be taken to represent the opinions of any one contributor, the editor or the contributors as a whole. Neither, unless otherwise stated, should the views expressed be taken as in anyway representing any organisation or employer with whom the contributors are connected. As the FAQ is the work of many people, speaking many different flavours of english, some of the spelling and grammer might be novel to some readers, remember the main function of the FAQ is communication not a lesson in english. The current editor is Steve Gamble (see FAQ updates for how to contact him.) All comments by him are indicated by the square brackets[].
Charles McGrew has made the full FAQ together with other UFO related material available by ftp. Here are the details:
ftp.rutgers.edu (128.6.26.25)
many ufo-related documents (some of dubious reputability) in pub/ufo. See README's in the directory (and subdirectories). Files are a little disorganized right now, since the document- collection process is still going on, but if you're looking for that "special file", this is a good place to check out. More recent versions of the FAQ can be found here as a.a.v-faq. All files except the README's are in unix-compressed format, so please be sure to use 'binary' transfer mode. Anonymous ftp enabled.
