I attended a lecture at the Holiday Inn in Collinsville, IL on
12/20/91 given by Bill Knell, a UFO investigator, that was to deal with
"The UFO Coverup". Having never met Mr. Knell before, I didn't know
exactly what to expect. I must admit though, after hearing him on the
radio prior to the meeting, I was braced for "the big announcement."
His presentation was very good. I personally have not been exposed
to most of mr. knell's material. He was well received by the sixty or
so people in attendance. But, unfortunately, the big announcement is
still somewhere out there in the future.

The following press release announced a special episode of "Unsolved
Mysteries" that was due to air last month. Even though the regularly
scheduled program (Wednesday, 12/25/91) included a segment on the
Bentwaters Air Base incident, the special government episode has not
been aired to date.
The Bentwaters story, although a repeat, did include some additional
details that hadn't been presented originally.
"Unsolved Mysteries" must be commended for presenting cases from a
balanced and objective position. The Belgium story done in November
was done in a far from even neutral manner; instead, it was done in a
very positive and professional way with striking special effects. The
high profile of the show, together with the regularity in which UFO
subjects are presented, will help the masses cope should the "big one"
ever come along.

The United States government plans to make a surprise announcement
revealing that U.F.O.s are real, intelligently-controlled aircraft of
unknown origin sometime within the next two weeks. This announcement
will coincide with a special, unscheduled episode of the nbc network
television program "unsolved mysteries' on sunday, december 22, 1991.
Neither the content, nor the format of this announcement is known at
this time.
This exclusive information was revealed to veteran U.F.O. investigator
Bill Knell during the past 48 hours by two reliable sources. The first
is Dr. Robert Carr, a professor at the university of South Florida,
State of Florida, U.S.A. and the second is a person who works for TRW, a
company which has examined captured or crashed UFOs for the government
at trw facilities according to this source and one former employee of
that company. Both sources say they have participated in the filming of
the special "unsolved mysteries" episode and have been told by unamed
government contacts that the forthcoming announcement concerning UFOs
will be made on the same date as the airing of the tv episode. The
person, agency or format of the announcement and concerning it is
unknown at this time.
