Throughout the briefing Ms. Smiley asked intelligent, thoughtful questions,
and took copious notes. She explained that the only reason she was here was
the strong support for GRILL FLAME by Rep Charlie Rose (D-NC), a member of
the HPSCI. Ms. Smiley related she had discussed GRILL FLAME with Dr. Hal Puthoff,
SRI-I, during his recent trip to Washington (week of 26 April 1982). She
explained that while GRILL FLAME had not been cut in the House, it had been cut
in the Senate, and, therefore, must go to conference for resolution. Ms. Smiley
continued that neither the dollar amount nor the spaces appeared to be at issue,
but rather the concept of parapsychology itself. She believed that GRILL FLAME
would be an emotional issue in conference.
