“”””You can stick to the ignorance that enables you your bliss and joyous derision — it’s too late for me. While I hope you’re right that it’s all the mere fantasies of “kooks,” “”

Not quite sure whether you are

1) a fearless believer
2) a believer who is scared (sounds like bedlinen)less
3) a spiteful alien
4) hoping your husband is a liar
5) sure there is a squadron of alien spacecraft poised to invade your property and cart you off.
6) an aeronautical engineer with technical schematics

I think #2 would describe me pretty well.

So you think Gordon Cooper lied?

Add to your list of what you're not quite sure I am ... I am experienced in the ways of newsrooms, news editors, and news reporting. It has given me insight into the truth that just because a report isn't validated by "credible" mainstream media, doesn't mean it didn't happen. In fact, it's a lot easier to cover-up (by ignoring) a story than anyone would ever imagine, even when witnesses try to break the media's vow of silence. From a riot at an American tourist mecca that normally would have made national news, to protests at a Presidential candidate's stump speech.

It kinda changes your perspective on the reliability of the news media when it comes to reality versus what people do and don't want to hear.
