No, I am not willing to ask Dom nor am I willing to pay his expenses to
travel to Arkansas!! 

Sounds like you drank some very nice wine last night!!  :-))))) 

Couldn't resist that one!

They were told by military people that UFOs were common occurrences in the quiet southern portions of our Pacific and Atlantic oceans. I watch Ancient Aliens religiously. Recent documented info over the past 2-3 years is very revealing, including our own astronauts who were sworn to secrecy decades ago, including on the "back side" of the moon sightings. We never see the back side from earth. Now as they guys are old enough, they are speaking of their experiences, and most people are not afraid of the "truths" after Project Bluebook was published and Roswell NM was exposed... It is what it is..

Maybe the ADXA can get Dom to speak at our annual 2019 December ADXA meeting.  Joel, are you willing to ask him? And, who would pay his way here and back to Europe?

The Russians completely disrupted the GPS coverage in the North Atlantic during the NATO games according to proof supplied by Norway.  Maybe some of the Russian hams...................................:)))))

>> Just got thru checking the position of the 3Y0 boat on all 3 links. The personal Dom link stopped at # 17, over 5 hours ago. Other two links also show boat still up northward, near tip of ZS, just where it was 5 hours ago. Almost like no GPS link is working now. Anyone got a link that IS working and shows recent position, not 5 hours ago?? .. TU
