SPIN, SPIN, SPIN - AS THE SAUCERS TURN SO GO THE ALIENS! We are at the mercy of the UFO Spin Doctors. Originally the term "Spin Doctor" refereed to a political press agent or publicist employed to promote a favorable interpretation of events. That is, events which probably did not happen precisely as described, but which could be altered to rise to the occasion. If you can put the right amount of spin on a situation you can make someone, or an entire group, believe almost anything. Even if it never happened that way. The worst case scenario-a terrible nightmare - can become your best asset if you can rectify the events and place them in a favorable light. Look at the O.J. Simpson trial. One on line source explains further that the word is, "Often associated with newspapers and politicians, to use spin is to manipulate meaning, to twist truth for particular ends-usually with the aim of persuading readers or listeners that things are other than they are. As in idioms such as to put a 'positive spin on something'-or a 'negative spin on something'-one line of meaning is concealed, while another-at least intentionally-takes its place. Spin is language which, for whatever reason, has designs on us..." In the world of UFOlogy there is plenty of spit. No matter how hard core the evidence for a particular case may be, your hard nose skeptic will say that there is a "logical explanation," that that craft that crashed in the woods was actually just a meteor (even if it shot back up into the sky). Likewise, a case that is of little merit can be bolstered over and over through talk shows and podcasts, until a story has been cemented in "fact." We have put the best spin possible on the events described in the text of this book. The incidents in quest all have great merit, more so in the way they are told. Furthermore, to justify the "Doctor" in the title we have dug into our files to find a startling report on the Men in Black as described by the late Dr. Berthold Eric Schwarz. You are welcome to hop on board and spin around and around with us and our Ultra-Terrestrial friends. And who knows what side of the galaxy we might end up in!
