The idea for World UFO Day, just celebrated on July 2, started being tossed around at the turn of the 21st Century. June 24 was proposed as the date relating to the Kenneth Arnold sighting. Eventually this idea was formalized in 2010 by the World Disclosure Day Organization likely based in the Netherlands. The day selected was associated with the UAP crash near Roswell, NM - July 2.

On March 5 of this year, I received a referral from Ron James, a filmmaker and the Director of Media Relations for MUFON. Ron had received this request, below, from Wall Street Journal national security reporter, Joel Schectman:

Greetings, I'm Joel Schectman from the Wall Street Journal. I was hoping you might have a good way to reach Robert Salas. I wanted to discuss his important UAP account for an article I'm working on. Please let me know the best way to reach him..

A few years ago, a guy came up to me and said, "Steve." Yeah? I reply. "What will the last days of the Truth Embargo be like? You know, as we get close to Disclosure."

I had a pretty good idea what the answer was to his query, but it was difficult to describe. I did my best, but what I needed was a metaphor. It has taken years, but at last I have one.

Of late, I find myself searching for an analogy gleaned from one of the A-list films of all times to the Disclosure process currently underway. I think I found one, Raiders of the Lost Ark -- IMDb 8.4, Rotten Tomatoes 94% Fresh.

Let's agree "Capitol Disclosure" would be the perfect name for a weekly report or daily podcast revealing behind the scenes machinations taking place on the Hill at the north end of the Washington Mall.
