I question the sanity of those who believe that in the 130+ BILLION(yes, with a B) estimated galaxies(and this an estimate I remember from a couple of years ago), that the Earth is the only planet with life on it.

And it's not like the Government hasn't lied to us before.

Who said anything about that? This has nothing to do with the idea that Aliens crash landed in Roswell. The universe could be teeming with life, that doesn't mean they are flying around down here. BTW, I am a UFO buff of at least 30 years, was a "true believer", have read up on it for ages, but it came to a point where the evidence was just lacking. I am agnostic on the subject, but being from the Midwest, close to Missouri, I say, Show Me!

Occam is my friend, and so far, this "smoking gun" could be alternatively explained by any number of alternative hypothesis that would easily be more plausible than "Aliens have the technology to cross vast stretches of time and space, but OOPS!, poor aliens go BOOM."

That is an "E" for "estimated" -- is it not? Wait -- let me "estimate" the number of angels on the head of a pin. Can you be sure we can trust our electron microscopes?

UNTIL you people can drag out ALF for an interview with Art Bell John Stossel, who can seriously believe in "little Green Men"??
