Ah, Quix, you know the drill. The guy's limited experience shapes his assessment of reality. Like the young gal I knew who'd spent her entire life (thus far) on a mountainous tropical island 26 x 9 miles in size. When we told her that in California, she couldn't live with us in San Luis Obispo and commute daily to and from UCLA, she cheerfully laughed at us because to her mind, clearly we were crazy. The concept of anything more distant that 52 miles round trip was beyond her real world.

Just the same, I dare mysterio to go up to my husband and his Marine son and tell them that when they and fellow neighbors saw an upside-down pie plate saucer with windows in it silently travel a few hundred yards above their street of homes and then instantly "disappear" into a star, that they simply "assumed" it was an extraterrestrial UFO when it was something else. This happened near a U.S. air base, and husband was (and still is) very well informed about aviation, far better than average. He knew damned well it wasn't a secret government project because he knew that that no earthly aviation developers has mastered that kind of technology.

You could go up to them and tell them they are either lying or were mistaken, mysterio, but somehow ... I think you'd have second thoughts. And FYI, husband rarely if ever talks about UFOs, but he DOES talk about and act on what he now knows to be true: that just because conventional thinking says somethign is impossible, it by no means follows that the thing actually is impossible. He knows better now. Unlike you, because your experiences are less broad than his.

I saw a ghost in college, clear as day. Found out this year what I saw was actually sleep paralysis.

There's almost always an explanation. However, if someone produces a clear, undoctored video or picture of a space monster a space monster ship, I will reconsider my views. Shouldn't be too hard, since everyone is walking around with a camera on their phone and everyone seems to be seeing space monsters.

After we compile some clear, unphotoshopped photos, we can work together to author a scientific paper and get it published in Nature. Then the argument will be settled, and we'll probably all be quite rich.

I like this plan. I'm happy to be a part of it. Let's do it.

I'll ask them.

I want to know if the neighborhood is still standing, or if at the very least the homes still had windows, or if anyone went deaf, considering the resulting shock wave from such an object moving as described.

I know. I know.

But THEY are SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO CONVINCED

of their own brilliance and knowledge!

Almost . . . almost begs for a tweaky response! LOL.

Isn’t it amazing . . .

how the clueless, ignorant, willfully blind folks

do mental gymnastic back flips about speed of ight and shock waves etc.

further proving they haven’t read much of the literature and/or aren’t trusting the enginners and scientists much wiser and far more experienced in the phenomena than they are.

Should be very interesting to hear the shockwave from their jaws hitting the concrete in the not too distant future.
