Re: UFOs

Yes, all fair points, but like I said - show me the money - for all the reasoned theories out there, there are hundreds of 'ancient aliens built the pyramids/my Mom was raped by aliens' stuff too which sort of makes it hard to separate the wheat from the chaff and makes it too easy to scoff at.

which is what the US govt has been peddling for decades. dont forget until the AATIP came to light they'd denied they were looking into UFOs.

Whatever people are seeing (and I've no doubt they are being genuine) there could be any amount of reasons for. Capture one of these things and investigate - then I believe.

Which is what i said earlier on. there are rumours that the AATIP had "materials" from a UFO and they were being investigated

"Under Mr. Bigelow’s direction, the company modified buildings in Las Vegas for the storage of metal alloys and other materials that Mr. Elizondo and program contractors said had been recovered from unidentified aerial phenomena. Researchers also studied people who said they had experienced physical effects from encounters with the objects and examined them for any physiological changes."

Testimony from some 2nd world war pilot turned teacher isn't going to convince me, nor even current air force pilots or government officials...show me the money.

using that need for evidence i presume you dont believe in the higgs boson particle, black holes or even gravity for that matter.

i agree that extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence which we have yet to see. that said, the people who dismiss the credible UFO sightings with the "swamp gas" type excuse are really silly.
