| These dialogues were
wiretapped by Fox Mulder and his colleagues, Dana
Scully and Kelly Flynt. They take place mostly in
a tent in a state forest in the Cascade Mountains
in eastern Washington state. The dialogues
feature Zoe Alexander, a 27-year old artist from
Seattle, and Joe Carson, suspected alien. During
the third night, Zoe's friend, Erin Hughes, shows
up. Erin is a philosophy professor at the
University of Washington. These dialogues pick up where
John Perry's Personal
Identity and Immortality
(Hackett) leaves off. The chaplain
"Miller" who was a central character in
Perry's dialogue turns out to have been none
other than Fox Mulder! Mulder, it seems, was a
hospital chaplain before he joined the FBI and
Perry was distracted or hard of hearing,
mistaking "Mulder" for
"Miller" when he transcribed his own
tapes.
