Gentlemen:

For years I have been pursuing the UFO phenomena in my own manner, and sending materials on to you, with the idea that perhaps some of it would have some value to you pursuant to your own interest in said phenomena.

With the exception of three more rather important sets which are already being xeroxed for you...I am stopping the above practice completely...that is, sending my findings to scientists. I shall continue, of course, to work for and with my UFOs, but will keep my findings to myself. To me, at least, they have a great deal of value. (Informational value).

C'est finis.

Sincerely,

Ted Owens

Jeffrey... this only pertains to future... has naught to do with our book project in the works. Merry Christmas.  
Ted
