- giddieon, on 01/15/2008, -9/+141Quick someone tell Tom Cruise that the mother ship has come!!!
- ats314, on 01/15/2008, -0/+114Best line in the video:
"Surrel's (the hunter who saw the UFO) though about shooting at the object, but didn't want to start an interstellar war, so he lowered his gun and hightailed it inside." - Napoleone, on 01/15/2008, -10/+84FTA: "...Steve Allen, a freight company owner and pilot who said the object he saw last week was a mile long and half a mile wide. "It was positively, absolutely nothing from these parts."
Let us grant the dimensions this man describes as being a good approximation, for the sake of argument. And let us also grant that the military produces advanced air-crafts and technologies the general public doesn't find out about until many years later.
Now let us reflect on the fact that we've lost space shuttles and their crews to foam damage and icy rings, and that after several billions of dollars invested we still have not been able to devise a reliable anti-ICBM missile.
With those two extremely critical, yet obviously troubled aeronautical pursuits in mind --and any others you can recall-- is it plausible our military could produce such a craft, at this moment in time? - sensor, on 01/15/2008, -12/+84How about Steve miscalculated the size of the craft? Wouldn't that be the plausible answer?
- tattertech, on 01/15/2008, -7/+77Let's say Steve's approximation was correct. And there was an object flying in the air that was a mile long and a half a mile wide...
....How the goddamn ***** would this not have ended up on everyone's camera and been on every ***** TV channel? - inactive, on 01/15/2008, -4/+64"The Air Force no longer investigates UFOs." Thats the most interesting part of the story, why is this?
- JimSwarthow, on 01/15/2008, -0/+59just b/c the Air Force/Military/Govt says they've stopped doing whatever that doesn't mean they've stopped doing whatever. it just means they've stopped telling people about whatever it is they're doing.
- donkz, on 01/15/2008, -2/+57Hidef video with 200x zoom, and not some cellphone video of a white light in the sky
- donjuan571, on 01/15/2008, -1/+55It would be interesting if they found a video of it
- jetboyterp, on 01/15/2008, -11/+59And if you looked really close at the back of the UFO, you'll see a bumper sticker reading: "Kucinich/Paul '08"
- inactive, on 01/15/2008, -20/+62"People wonder what in the world it is because this is the Bible Belt, and everyone is afraid it's the end of times,"
Sums it up right there... - jon02129, on 01/15/2008, -2/+43Because they've 1) already found what they were looking for, and/or 2) _they_ are the UFOs.
- mannaran, on 01/15/2008, -6/+46I am going to give it a cold... to get their shields down.. huh..!!
- theghoul, on 01/15/2008, -2/+39Great, more illegal aliens.
Or should we call them "Guest Extraterrestrial Workers" - Orderless, on 01/15/2008, -0/+35In most science fiction, ships like these use more advanced forms of propulsion. Any idiot can figure out that a craft of this size would be impractical if powered by conventional means.
- DickyT83, on 01/15/2008, -3/+34The government denying UFO existence? Nawww.
- h3lx, on 01/15/2008, -4/+34Because it's rural Texas and half of 'em are lucky if they can get some gingham for the miss and some cane for the babies. Not exactly the technological Mecca of the south.
- tehxen3, on 01/15/2008, -4/+33Aliens piss me off.
- kidgib, on 01/15/2008, -14/+41Here is a simple set of rules for the ignorant:
1. If its in the air and we instantly can't identify it, its a flying saucer.
2. If its in a house or otherwise on the ground, and we instantly can't identify it,
it's a ghost. - ursername180, on 01/15/2008, -6/+30Aliens are magicians. Everyone knows this.
- Thex1138, on 01/15/2008, -2/+25If it bleeds, we can kill it.
- cheeseron, on 01/15/2008, -1/+23This guy just saved humanity! Someone get him a medal!
- teh_techie, on 01/15/2008, -4/+26It would be great if the end of times arrived solely in the bible belt...
- kazamx, on 01/15/2008, -8/+30Its the Iranians you fools. We must bomb iran NOW
- tattertech, on 01/15/2008, -4/+24The ultimate tag line for evidence of UFOs, Bigfoot, etc: "but it's not very clear"
- seanhive, on 01/15/2008, -2/+22I want to believe.
- inactive, on 01/15/2008, -3/+21"Seriously though no pics no vid nothing just witnesses so its *****. "
-- like 99% of "history"? - UGM2099, on 01/15/2008, -3/+21All we want is for the world to become a whole lot more interesting, amiright?
- kraemer007, on 01/15/2008, -1/+19This is the same stealth blimp people saw in phoenix and here: http://www.space.com/businesstechnology/technology ...
- freexe, on 01/15/2008, -8/+26Or it was a cloud.
- inactive, on 01/15/2008, -0/+17I can recognize the uuiU, do not want.
- slapded, on 01/15/2008, -1/+1815% of America still has rabbit ears on their tv sets
- mcgarry83, on 01/15/2008, -1/+18I hate when that happens, Im always seeing "banks of clouds" zig zagging through the sky with incredible speeds, while military aircraft chase them. I've just learned to ignore it.
- woohhaa, on 01/15/2008, -0/+16I don't think ET is using fossil fuels.
- orangefly, on 01/15/2008, -2/+18not if they flashy thingied everyone with a camera....
- demicritter, on 01/15/2008, -1/+17You'll note that it was filed under "Science"
- Bakrain, on 01/15/2008, -0/+15Yes, it sounds fantastic and I normally wouldn't believe it either, but we once thought that the world was flat. Many things can't be explained scientifically, so I won't dismiss them outright, that would be, well, unscientific. :)
- inactive, on 01/15/2008, -3/+17No one said it was a flying saucer. They just said it was a UFO. The flying object was unidentified making it a UFO.
- inactive, on 01/15/2008, -8/+22I for one, welcome our new silent object with bright lights overlords
- bdawg123, on 01/15/2008, -2/+16I'm not about to jump on the "aliens from space" bandwagon just yet as I require more facts/evidence before coming to such a conclusion. I do not, however, discount the possibility that this has/could happen. What pisses me off is when I read stuff like this -
"While federal officials insist there's a logical explanation..."
They then fail to provide a logical explanation and proclaim they don't investigate such matters! Assuming this isn't a mass hallucination (and someone would need to explain how that is even possible) and that the eyewitnesses really saw what they claim they saw, then it is premature to "insist" anything about it. What are these officials basing this on beyond their own unwillingness to allow for the possibility that there may exist phenomenon on this planet that is currently beyond our understanding? Whatever happened to keeping an open mind in the interest in learning the truth, whatever that truth may be? - cslawren, on 01/15/2008, -1/+13that one made me laugh, i have to admit.
- Waiting2awake, on 01/15/2008, -1/+13computer virus FTW!... *****, it's asking me to play a game?
- zcreem, on 01/15/2008, -1/+12deny UFO's exist, do they even know what it stands for.
- Lackey10, on 01/15/2008, -5/+16Indeed. They truly are a higher form of intelligence.
- pitdog, on 01/15/2008, -4/+15It was Tom Cruise with Xenu, visiting the grounds.
- inactive, on 01/15/2008, -0/+10yeh, We don't take kindly on strangers in these parts
- br0ken1128, on 01/15/2008, -1/+11Yes because the government is concerned about wasting taxpayer money.
- mccarron, on 01/15/2008, -3/+13Too late, see above.
