Subj: interesting letter.... Date: Mon, Dec 4, 1995 4:32 PM PDT From: sandworm@via.net X-From: sandworm@via.net (Ross Jeffries) To: psychospy@aol.com Dear Mr. Campbell, Here is a letter that appeared in this month's "STEAMSHOVEL PRESS" from Sean David Morton in response to an interview you did with the magazine. It shows pretty clearly once again, that Mr. Morton is a brave pioneer in the UFO field and an educated class act, while you, sir, are nothing more than an ignorant, babbling boob! ************************************************************* Allow me to quote you just a small sample of the sage-like wisdom of Mr. Glenn Campbell: "I think that Las Vegas should be destroyed with nuclear weapons..." Groom Desert Rat Newsletter "I apologize...for saying that Las Vegas should be destroyed with nuclear weapons...I now think that New York City should be nuked..." Groom Desert Rat Newsletter CAMPBELL: "I came out here (Rachel, Nev.) because I saw the video of the base (Groom Lake) shot by Sean Morton, and he guaranteed people that we could see UFO's out here any day of the week..." MORTON: "Glenn, you just got out here a day late and a dollar short. Most of the UFO stuff got moved when the public attention heated up in late '93. I stopped coming out because there was just nothing to see!" CAMPBELL: "Yeah...Well I've been in the same valley at the same time when Sean saw UFO's and I didn't" MORTON: "That's not true..." Exchange on THE MONTELL WILLAMS SHOW "I don't see how UFO's could possibly fly when they don't even have wings." Glenn Campbell onTHE LARRY KING SHOW As a long time fan and subscriber to the STEAMSHOVEL PRESS I was disappointment to see an interview with this rather sad, lonely individual. I mean if you wanted the "Party Line" that nothing more was going on at AREA 51 other than secret aircraft testing, or the burning of toxic materials, you should have just talked to the PR officer at Nellis AFB, or picked up the Establishment's technology tabloid POPULAR SCIENCE. STEAMSHOVEL is exciting for giving vent to the other side of the story. As a leader in Conspiratorial Theory you should have asked questions like, "Why is this man here?", "Where does he come from?", "What purpose does he serve?" ,"What exactly is his message?", "Why, in a town used to eccentrics, does the entire population want him tarred and feathered?" "Does the Agent Provocateur premise apply here?" I first met Glenn Campbell when he had just blown into town at Rachel, Nevada's "Little A'Le Inn". He bought me and my friend Charles Smirnoff lunch and I cordially answered his questions about what I felt was going on at the AREA 51 facility. We got out maps and I patiently showed him the military boundaries, the viewing area of the base which I had discovered in May of 1991, and the mountain top which he now calls "Freedom Ridge", and has become the obsessive focal point of his life. I did what I could, and would do for anyone, with a genuine curiosity about this mystery. It's a fact that in the media if 999 people see something and one blind man doesn't, the blind man will get just as much coverage, and his word will carry as much weight as the 999. Maybe Campbell felt that this was his best strategy to leech onto his fleeting 15 minutes of fame. There has yet to be a camera out there that he hasn't thrown himself in front of! Feeling he could make a quick buck by knocking down people who had done the research and taken the risks so he and his cronies could peer down on the Groom Lake base from picnic tables and deck chairs, he went on to call me a "moron" in his self published "Area 51 Viewers Guide". Everybody that went out to the site with me he described as my "mindless minions", which I assume would include Kenn Thomas (the author of the article in question and publisher of "STEAMSHOVEL PRESS.") Joe and Pat Travis, the owners of the Rachel bar and grill, also made the mistake of befriending this man who has never repaid money he has borrowed from them (which in my netighborhood is called "Stealing"!) and who he has gone on to call Mr. & Mrs. Travis "yokels", "hicks" and "fools." If this was just about a difference of opinion, Hey! I love a good debate! But Campbell's twisted psyche, or should I call him "The Glenn Campbell", as he always refers to himself in his newsletter in the third person, like some megalomaniacal all star wrestler, or as "the PSYCHO spy", but Campbell says that I am "...his arch nemesis! The embodiment of evil" and I am always at the top of his "Death List". I ride in esteemed company. Others he calls "truly evil" are Bob Lazar, Gene Huff,(who got off his list by making some kind of financial deal with them), George Knapp, John Leer, Gary Schultz, Norio Hiwakawa, Anthony Hilder, Bill Cooper, Joe and Pat Travis (including all who live in Rachel)....in fact, everyone who believes that there might be some extraterrestrial origin to what was going on at the Groom Test Site he feels are "the evil spawn of Satan" and have made his "Hate List" of enemies. This is a well adjusted individual? He counts among his heroes and friends such debunking cranks as Philip Klass and Porno video producer turned UFO 'investagator' Russ Estes. There is an old Irish saying that goes: "To be cursed by the devil is a blessing indeed!" So I find myself truly sainted. I laughed out loud when I read his quote: ".....I'm looking for things that are alien that are probably beyond our current knowledge, that doesn't mean you can abandon the scientific method." Who-ha! That's a good one! He constantly ignores and conveniently avoids hundreds of eye-witness testimonies and video tapes that don't fit into his incessant "it's just the military" bleating. He continues to call me a liar when my sightings have been backed up by video taped proof and similar eyewitness accounts. Maybe he forgets that on the self same tape he claims to have seen on the MONTELL WILLIAMS SHOW which brought him to AREA 51 in the first place, I showed that the much bally-hoed "Old Faithful" which appears every morning in the sky at 4:50 AM WAS merely some kind of landing plane.....but on many other occasions IT WASN'T and jumped wildly back and forth, witnessed by myself and others and filmed by Norio Hiwakawa. It was also on this same show, thanks to my direction and urging of the producers, that they received a letter back from the military admitting for the first time that the Groom Lake Facility did in fact exist. This should help Campbell in his upcoming court case. (You're welcome!) Campbell says that I would "...charge people $99. and point to the landing lights of commuter jets and call them saucers..." This is patently absurd! I thank you Kenn for defending me. You at least have been out there with me, whereas Campbell has not. I live by the LA airport so I should know the difference between UFOs and landing planes! Everyone in my groups carry high-powered bi-noculars, and far from being my "mindless minions" I think they could judge for themselves what was what. I started taking the tours because so many people insisted on going. The $99. paid for a van (at $160 a day and .39c a mile), gas, firewood, equipment and meals. I limited the groups to 8, and took them on a 14 mile hike up and back to the peak to look down on the base and then dealt with the sheriff when we got down. You can't even take a bus to Vegas from LA round trip for less than that. Suffice it to say I didn't break even, and I stopped going for one good reason....by late 1993 we simply weren't seeing anything, and my excellent sources told me that everything had been moved to Tucson and Maryland. It is also ironic to have Campbell accuse me of profiteering from AREA 51 by taking tours there, while he has now based his entire livelihood and income on doing the same thing with his tours and catalog and newsletter and patches, ad nauseam! Somebody is paying for his smear spot on the INTERNET. On his WEB site, due to a lack of any real interest by anyone in his lunacy, and the fact that he has nothing else really to say, he has tried to extend his sorry stay in the spotlight by slandering me. It would all be funny if his ravings were not so sick and viscious. It was all very exciting while it lasted, but unlike the individual you cover in your piece....I have a life. Please remember that until I let the cat out the bag about the location of the peak that looked down on the facility, I was one of a handful of people who had actually seen the base without having worked there. So when I spoke with men who claimed to be scientists, or workers or guards, all of whom confirmed some kind of alien presence or backing of the technology going on there, all I had to do was ask them to tell me what the base looked liked and how it was laid out to test their veracity, because I had the place on film. So Glenn Campbell can go on calling me a liar and fake or "evil" if it suits his peculiar neurosis to knock down everybody who took the risks and did the work long before this person came along to base his life on and live in the shadow of the deeds of others, whom he mocks and gives no credit or due. He can even go on claiming that he "Shoo-ed me away..." from going out to the test site, but I stopped going when there was nothing left to see...which is just about when Campbell showed up to trumpet, against all the available evidence, that there had never been anything there at all. So next time you see him in print or grumbling on some TV show somewhere, just think about a crazy little man who shows up at the barn with the doors wide open and the cows all gone, squealing at the top of his lungs that he has been tricked.....and that because he hasn't seen any, bovines must not exist. Thanks for your time, and keep up the excellent work! Peace!
