Like so many others, I had thought we were done with the Roswell Slides. It seemed that the reading of the placard, the discovery of the documentation that supported all of that, and the retreat of some of the experts would be enough to kill it. It seemed as if we had all the answers, documented to a level that is rarely achieved in UFO research\u2026 and it appears that I would be wrong because there are always those diehards out there.<\/span><\/div>\n

<\/span><\/div>\n
Tom Carey, a major proponent of the Roswell Slides, appeared on the Paranormal Podcast 393 hosted by Jim Harold a couple of days ago. You can download the program here:<\/span><\/div>\n

<\/div>\n
Carey did make a couple of comments that I thought to be of importance. At about 4:55, while discussing the slides he said, \u201cIt was one of the Roswell bodies.\u201d<\/span><\/div>\n

<\/span><\/div>\n\n\n\n\n

Tom Carey in Roswell.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n
At 18:40, he said, \u201cTo me it was one of the Roswell aliens. Considering the time frame and what it looked like. It looked exactly like what had been described to me as to what the body looked like from the crash.\u201d<\/span><\/div>\n

<\/span><\/div>\n
Why are these two quotes important? Because prior to May 5, they, meaning Carey and Don Schmitt, had insisted that they hadn\u2019t tied the slides to Roswell specifically. Schmitt, on The Conspiracy Show<\/i> with Richard Syrett on April 12, 2015, said, \u201cWhat I personally resent is that so many of the skeptics\u2026 somehow they have done everything they can to link them [the slides] to Roswell\u2026 They\u2019re the ones who have labeled them the Roswell Slides. We haven\u2019t done that\u2026” He went on to say that they were not linking \u201cthese images to Roswell\u2026 It is possible there is a connection.\u201d<\/span><\/div>\n

<\/span><\/div>\n
To sort of underscore this, Carey said during this most recent interview that the owner of the slides, whom he did not identify (Joe Beason) \u201cwasn\u2019t a Roswell guy or UFO guy but it looked like the body of an alien.\u201d I am still not clear why anyone would jump to that conclusion, but according to Carey, that is what Beason did. The point is that Carey mentioned that Beason was not a Roswell guy shows the connection being made.<\/span><\/div>\n

<\/span><\/div>\n
The other point that Carey thought of as important, as he was discussing the \u201cdeblurring\u201d of the placard, was that the placard seemed to have been written in cursive but when finally deblurred, it was in block letters. This bothered Carey and to him it suggested that something in the deblurring process was flawed. He mentioned that he wasn\u2019t a computer guy but he just couldn\u2019t understand this.<\/span><\/div>\n

<\/span><\/div>\n
The answer, however, was simple. David Rudiak, who had first suggested that the lettering was in cursive said that his observation was based on the way the lettering looked in the scans he had been given. They were of the placard and little else which masked the true nature of what he was seeing. When he was given a higher quality scan that had more background detail, it was clear that the lettering was not in cursive. The deblurring of a higher resolution scan provided the answer which Carey seems to dismiss.<\/span><\/div>\n

<\/span><\/div>\n
Of course this argument about cursive, doesn\u2019t explain why the floor as shown when the whole slide frame is revealed matches that in the museum and why other placards visible match the one in front of the \u201calien\u201d image. Or, in other words, the slide was not taken in some obscure government lab, research center or facility. It matches the floor in the museum at Mesa Verde that was open to the public, and given the timing of the events, was probably taken prior to May 1947, which, of course rules out Roswell.<\/span><\/div>\n

<\/span><\/div>\n
Nor does it explain the other exhibits that are seen in the background of the slide. Clearly this is a museum setting and not the controlled environment you would expect if this was an image of an alien creature. It would not be out on display for everyone to see.<\/span><\/div>\n

<\/span><\/div>\n
I could go on in this vein, but is it really necessary? Carey is grasping at straws. The evidence that the image is that of an unfortunate child is overwhelming and the suggestions that it is something alien nearly nonexistent. <\/span><\/div>\n

<\/span><\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

But I want to make one thing clear. I do not believe that either Carey or Schmitt were participating in a hoax that they created. They might have been overwhelmed by their own enthusiasm and their desire to find some evidence of an alien UFO crash at Roswell, but they didn\u2019t create a hoax. Fooled?  Yes. Na\u00efve? Yes\u2026 but not the creators of a hoax. We all get fooled sometimes and this is one of those times for them. Oh, it is certainly time to let it go, but once you have committed to something so deeply, it is extremely difficult to admit the mistake.<\/span><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
