Why isn't it presented comprehensively?

Good question. Its answered in several ways.

• There are many Books and this website and many others has seen a lot of work by volunteers.

• It is mostly comprehensive.

• The books are well presented.

• There's only around 20 thousand individuals which have picked the information up and developed an interest, its a small to medium sized community.

Why haven't all the books been translated

• There hasn't been the resources and interest. It takes a lot of work to understand and translate all the terms and many of the terms are entirely new.

Why isn't it presented like a beautifully illustrated encyclopaedia we can pick up from our local book shop.

• That's a possibility however;

or Why hasn't it seen a BBC Planet Earth documentary treatment

• There simply isn't the resources and interest to make it happen.

• There is plenty of demand or would be though. Just look at any random story in a film, its not necessarily popular because of the story, often simply for the fact that its been presented well and the story has been well cultivated and 'fleshed out'.

• Political correctness causes problems and theoretical ideas are difficult to present seriously.

• An organisation like that wouldn't go far enough with a presentation or couldn't go far enough even if there was the interest, because the medium of television and film itself is somewhat limited by maintaining interest long enough. It would have to be a 20 hours series.

How far would money take this information

• Any amount of money would go a long way.

• £10,000 for example would probably allow for all the works to be translated with a professional translation organisation. However FIGU doesn't allow for all the books to be translated, only the contact reports and even this with the contact reports is a very new policy.

• FIGU doesn't care about any third party presentations, media, websites etc, but if the original source material is used then that is not allowed.

Is it just a money thing

• Yes

• £1.5 million pounds would probably be enough to fund a BBC Planet Earth style 20 hour documentary series covering all of the information and do it justice, be captivating enough and cause a vast world audience to look in.

• Projects of size do tend to require very large teams however, and the exact costs depends on how enthusiastic the team is; currently FIGU is voluntary, so this quantity of money would be enough to cause a global revolution probably.

• Much of it is fringe science knowledge so a team which had studied the information for a decade or more would have to have a role in gathering and sorting the information appropriately for a television production, to transform it into a workable format.

It's very advanced knowledge most of it, and you may of noticed that television organisations won't entertain the notion of broadcasting anything that challenges the viewers too much, for whatever reason, so it would be quite difficult, not impossible, to produce a presentation like that.

Is it too controversial

• Not necessarily.

• It would be no more controversial than some other things.

• At present if a feature is presented it has to be reference able to known scientific discovery and known things. This information is far too fringe even though with the work it could be presented beautifully and that pitfall could be worked around, a team could work out a way of working around that.
