Lorenzo!
Thank you for a very important interview with one of the elders, that have done pioneering and beautiful work in the field. But I cant believe you did not ask more questions about his extremely close encounter with an extra terrestrial!? Specially since it seemed that he is a man who you don’t think is fouling around or spacing out. Did you ever talk more about this at some other point? If so, do tell about it in a future podcast.
Be well 🙂
[Yes, Gary and I spoke at length about it on several occasions. However, he didn’t want our conversations to be recorded. All that I am free to say is that even though I am a skeptic, Gary’s stories have forced me to keep my mind open. Interestingly, another of my friends also had a similar and strange encounter in somewhat the same part of the country. There are obviously still many questions that defy our standard stories about life.]
