IMO this entire thread is a red herring. It doesn't matter except to people who enjoy having cows about meaningless issues. Is that a mixed metaphor? Well, who cares, which is what I think about the whole thing. Who cares if Grusch was an alcoholic? Who cares if Grusch was diagnosed with PTSD? Isn't everbody? It seems to be the disease du juor. Who cares if Trump is a convicted felon? So was Jesus. It gives new meaning to the phrase "trumped up charges." The point is that these sorts of complaints are used to "discredit" someone whom the opposition feels needs to be discredited. Frankly, I do not think this sort of tactic works except to deflect the energy of the conversation into dead ends.
The pertinent issue involves the credibility of Grusch. Is what he says true and relevant, or is he another Steven Greer with his excessive baggage? I say he IS credible, but that the result of his relevations has not had quite the explosive impact many had wished for. And that's not necessarilly his fault. I think we ought to have a discussion on what constitutes smoking gun proof, but I suspect some people would not accept that, no matter what it is or how it is presented. And that is a problem.

Everything hurts and I'm tired.
