Alexander Sternberg" Mr. Sternberg and the many readers of CASI; I thought the idea of this list was to DISCUSS, rather than blindly TRUST all that is written. We have had conversations prior to this one whereby DISCUSSION about a particular claim was bantered about between the interested parties. As we all know, all of us come to these postings with our own biases and personal experiences in tow. I personally find some of the postings to be more 'credible' when filtered through my own experiences, and some to be less so. I think your information relating to satellite communications is potentially relevant, Mr. Sternberg, and is certainly part of the discussion. I also, as one who does not know of any history that the two of you may or may not share, think your parting "dear Felicitas" was rather condescending and potentially inappropriate. But then again perhaps the two of you share New Years Tea together and your calling her "dear Felicitas" isn't in fact as condescending as it otherwise sounds, but a warm reply between two longtime friends. I think that the points made in F's reply are valid ones, neither slanderous or superfluous, ones that should be brought up, ones that should be considered . I personally find Felicity's postings to be honest and genuine, as well as nicely thought out.
