As clever and entertaining as you are seeking to be, you have actually stumbled on to a bit of rhetorical sleight of hand that some believe the United States Government has engaged in for decades, when they announce periodically that “there are NO such things as UFO’s”, meaning that the Government KNOWS what they are, i.e., “IAOs” (Identified Aerial Objects), and there is no longer anything unknown about them.

Of course until the public is given all of the information which is squirreled away in government files, UFOs will remain exactly that: Unknown.

What files? Where are the files? How many of them are they? Are they like hanging desk drawer files or mannila envelope files?
I don't need the government to announce periodically that “there are NO such things as UFO’s”. The fact that I am a rational sane person tells me that. You know, when thousands of people think you're crazy and you are the only one that thinks you're not....... it might just be YOU.

So, you're saying that the Easter Bunny and Santa Claus really exists, because people say they don't?
