       | The amount of ignorance on display is overwhelming, and a lot of

       | come to terms with how they were so wrong for so long.

       | Reaction I: The concept/prospect of space aliens _really_ mashes
       | a lot of people 's emotional buttons. And "having a right to
       | learn about" is how such strong emotions are usually articulated.
       | 
       | Reaction II: So long as $Potential_Enemy_Nation is a bit unsure
       | about whether you are _really_ lying, about having a bunch of
       | from-1000-years-in-the-future technology hidden away, that you
       | could suddenly start using (against them) if sufficiently
       | motivated...that 's pretty cheap deterrence, eh?

         | It wouldn't be 100% but it's plausible that it would be the
