	The Temporal Doorway - A Behavioral Classification System For UFO Sightings
		Allen Hynek's system[footnote 2] was designed to classify UFO reports, rather than UFOs.
		Unfortunately, the result[footnote 3] was not an improvement on his first effort, and, in fact, the original categories, which needed extending, were, to some extent, obscured by the incorporation of the Hynek categories.
		It reduces the shortcomings of the Hynek and Vallee classifications, while using the best from each, and yet remains sufficiently simple and memorable as to be accessible to those producing and using catalogs.

	UFO Landing at Socorro New Mexico 1964
		Donald Menzel, a famous UFO debunker whose name appears on the infamous MJ-12 list, stated that the speeding motorist who Zamora had been chasing was a decoy who led the patrolman to the remote area, then used a walkie-talkie to signal co-conspirators, who released a phony flying saucer attached to a balloon.
		The laughable theory was laid to rest by Hynek, who pointed out that the craft left travelling west, while there was a strong wind from the south that day.
		Phillip Klass, another notorious debunker, dismissed the entire incident because the landing mark indentations did not correspond to the symmetrical landing legs of a NASA spacecraft.

	Metamorphosis (Addendum)
		Allen Hynek -- despite his sincerity and basic honesty.
		Hynek gave the photos his preliminary (and customary) stamp of approval: "[No] indication of an obvious hoax.
		Unfortunately, as I learned only after discovering the works of such UFO skeptics as Phil Klass, Robert Sheaffer (who solved the "Jimmy Carter" case) and James Oberg, the dogged rigorousness of Hynek's "investigation" of this case was more the rule for the pro-paranormal community than the exception.
