blogcritics.org — When it comes to coverage by the national media, UFOs (or Unidentified Flying Objects), generally speaking at least, are not a story topping the agenda of your more credible news organizations. This week however, was one where the mainstream media apparently never got that memo.

I don't see any reason why aliens would necessarily owe us anything if they decided to visit. Why the hell would they get out of their ships, offer to be friends, and wonder if some redneck will try to shoot them? In fact, if we are just local fauna for them, why the hell wouldn't they just drop in and point us out to their friends/family like an old couple pulling off the road to watch some deer? We pretty much have nothing to offer them other than tasty cattle and an occaisional anal probing (alien cow-tipping) so don't be surprised if someone eventually gets some high def video of them carrying on their alien antics. Smoke 'em if you got 'em.

Absence of evidence is not evidence of absence. The topic of Ufos should be approached with a healthy amount of skepticism but one should not dismiss it without doing some research for themselves. Check out this documentary on Google, very fascinating and all of it is based on video taken from NASA space missions which were broadcast over public TV. <a class="user" href="http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-5070476612863849446&q=NASA+ufo">http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-5070476612863849446&q=NASA+ufo</a><a class="user" href="http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=8524267568796529301&q=NASA+ufo">http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=8524267568796529301&q=NASA+ufo</a>

Apparently it hovered for around 7 minutes. How in 7 minutes can someone not run and get a camera, or pull out their camera phone. Are jobs on the tarmac to low paying for the employees to have cell phones? Are they not allowed to have them on the job?

Inarguably, Feynman was a brilliant physicist, but--does that intelligent quip actually explain the body of evidence? Before someone can comment on the evidence, they need to look at its wide scope and only then try to explain it all in conventional terms. Admittedly, it's a ridiculed, taboo subject for most scientists, although I do know a few at Stanford and NASA that have been willing to tackle the issue, although non-officially.

I would hate to think in this time of terrorism our FAA would mistake a pilots inquiry about a UFO meaning a extra terrestrial. That could be a very big mistake. UFO simply means Unidentified Flying Object. A balloon in the right weather conditions could very well fall into a UFO category; nevertheless, I still think we should take the right precautions on the matter. It would really suck if it was a terrorist and the FAA decided to call the pilot a lunatic just because he said he saw a UFO.

lol at this point I will just say I agree to disagree. I know what I know, and you know what you know. I don't even think a UFO landing in your front yard will change that. I do not fear extra terrestrials, for your information. I have more reason to fear the s**tty things people like you and our government do to keep control over all the feeble minds. Even then all attempts of that in the past have always failed and so will this one. It is only a matter of time. You may have something to prove, but at this point I just don't give a damn about your lame excuses. You would have been better off sticking with I don't know what the hell happened at Chicago Airport. That's all you guys had to say. coming up with weather phenomenons and tech balloons is just a lame ass way to divert attention from what really happened. I suppose you think there is no such thing as Area 51 either. of course it would be stupid to say that now, but I bet you were one of the assh**es in the 80's saying oh no there is no Area 51 you are all dumb asses to think so. Yeah well low and behold someone got in on satellite. Can't screw with that now can you. You assh**es are all alike. At this point you all look guilty as hell weather you know anything or not. Your best bet was to just play dumb, and not try to explain it with anything. Guess greed and control wouldn't let you do that though. Ultimately that is why you bastards keep this crap up to begin with. You may be able to lie and confuse a lot of people in this room with all that rhetoric but you will never change what I know, and you obviously know too or you wouldn't be trying so hard. I find it Amazing you are now calling this thing some kind of stealth aircraft after all that bulls**t. Whats it going to be next swamp gas? Why don't you start telling everyone the earth is flat, eventually it will settle in as scientific truth and you will have way more control over every ones money if you could actually get them to believe that. lol Hey, it worked in the past right.

Wow. You just completely fell apart there, didn't you? Here I was only joking about the "cue the conspiracy theories" and you actually came right out with it. Yikes. Get a grip, son.
