The "caller" in the following transcript is ParaNet member Rick
Dell'Aquila of Ohio. This is verbal confirmation from the Senator
himself of the famous "Blue Room" incident, which heretofore we only
knew about from his letters and from an interview in a questionable publication.

STATEMENT BY SENATOR BARRY GOLDWATER CONCERNING UFOs ON LARRY
KING RADIO SHOW, OCTOBER 13, 1988:
CALLER: Hello Senator Goldwater, I've heard in the past that
you have an interest in UFOs. I just finished a book
called, "Above Top Secret," by Timothy Goode, where
three or four of your letters are quoted concerning
your attempts to enter Wright-Patterson Air Force
Base.
SENATOR
GOLDWATER: Uh-hum.
CALLER: Do you believe that the government is withholding
information on UFOs?
SENATOR
GOLDWATER: Yes I do. But I don't know enough about the subject
involving Wright-Pat. to form any opinion. I
remember when I first tried to get into that room out
at Wright-Pat. and I went to General Curtis LeMay, an
old friend of mine, and asked him. He used some
pretty plain language and in effect, told me to "go
to hell" and...
LARRY
KING: That's the room where they are rumored to have
aliens?
SENATOR
GOLDWATER: Well, its a storage room where they are supposed to
have some of the evidence they've collected relative
to Unidentified Flying Objects. I have never...I
wouldn't argue against them. I wouldn't argue for
them. My only thinking on it is this planet of ours
is one of several billion planets in this universe.
I can't believe that God or whomever is in charge
would put thinking bodies on only one planet. So I'm
a firm believer that something can fly around here
that the Wright Brothers didn't have anything to do
with.
