This Clinton Presidential Library FOIA release (2006-0483-F), taken from Scheduling Office records, contains Steven M. Greer's CSETI correspondence with the White House. Greer's 15 November 1996 letter asks President Clinton for a meeting before a planned UN disclosure event. A memo sent to senior officials says witnesses would testify publicly unless told by 1 January 1997 that security oaths still bind them. Greer's enclosed briefings claim ET craft were retrieved in 1947. The White House declined the meeting on 6 December 1996.

What are the implications of such technologies being applied around the world? • The environment, which is being degraded at an alarming rate primarily due to the burning of fossil fuels and the relative scarcity of energy. would be greatly assisted, if not saved, by the widespread application of such technology. For the most part, the earth is still in the 1800s as far as energy generation, transportation and related technologies are concerned. The internal combustion engine reigns supreme, as does gas , oil and coal as sources of energy . Aside from being the chief sources of pollution of the air and water. their relative scarcity results in a further cost- and efficiency-related inability to 'scrub ' other sources of pollution from waterways, chemical processing, manufacturing and the like. Such inefficiencies, scarcity and intrinsically polluting qualities of the current world energy system are literally killing the earth. The application of advanced ET energy systems would completely reverse this situation. • When it takes only minutes - instead of 12-14 hours - to go from Asia to New York, the world will truly be a global village. Indeed, the need for vast, inefficient and dehumanizing metropolises will no longer exist, since both communications and transportation will allow small towns and villages to have access to each other instantly . This will result in a transformation in the nature and function of society unequaled in recorded history . • The relative scarcity of energy, and hence of resources generally, has resulted in a vast inequality among the poor and rich nations of the world. The application of these ET technologies will · alter this situation radically, and eventually abundance and an economic equilibrium will emerge. This will alter the world socio-economic situation and mitigate the economic pressures and inequalities which create so much strife and conflict in the world. With zero-point and related technologies in every village and every home, the consciousness of scarcity and a 'zero sum game' will give way to one of abundance. And with this, the human race will be freed from the oppressive mentality of material acquisitions and survival to a larger vision of developing the full potential of each human. • Public health and medical advances will result both directly and indirectly from these new technologies. For example, imagine a world where abundance of clean water and energy removes the specter of famine and disease from the entire earth. • Space exploration will be a viable possibility, since these energy and propulsion systems permit transport through space effectively at multiples of the speed of light. And with this, well, the sky is the limit. Aside from these technological and environmental long-term implications , there are the long-term implications related to the world corning to grips with the early and eventual mature stages of an open relationship with various extraterrestrial civilizations. _What might be the effects of an open dialogue with advanced life forms on world culture, art, music, philosophy, science and so forth? Only when we have stopped lying to ourselves about the existence of these other civilizations and disclosed the truth can we move in the direction of a sustainable global and inter-planetary society. Volumes can - and no doubt will - be written on the meaning of contact with advanced extraterrestrial civilizations. But of this we are sure: the first step is to achieve an honest disclosure. The implications of this disclosure are truly world-encompassing and far reaching. Because today we do not have a sustainable civilization on this planet, but one which is morally, technologically and socially moribund. 5
