In January, Silicon Valley legend Joe Firmage quit his job as the CEO of USWeb/CKS, a $2 billion company that employs nearly 2,000 people. The reason: He’s had contact with extraterrestrials and wants to expose the government conspiracy to conceal a 1947 space crash in Roswell, N. M.
"I’m not praying for a spacecraft to come pick me up," says Firmage, who calls himself the "Fox Mulder of Silicon Valley." "I’m just saying there is good, rational, left-brain evidence of things out there."
Firmage said his priorities shifted 15 months ago, after an encounter at his Los Gatos, Calif., home with a "remarkable being" clothed in brilliant white light.
"I don’t call them aliens," he says. "I call them teachers." He says it’s necessary to quit his high-paying job because of the "public relations complications" it might cause his company. He plans to write a book and is posting his findings on his website.
