It was the darndest thing I've ever seen. It was big, it was very bright, it changed colors and it was about the size of the Moon. We watched it for ten minutes, but none of us could figure out what it was. One thing's for sure, I'll never make fun of people who say they've seen unidentified objects in the sky. -President Jimmy Carter
"I looked out the window and saw this white light.It was zigzagging around. I went up to the pilot and said, Have you ever seen anything like that? He was shocked and he said, "Nope." And I said to him: "Let's follow it!" We followed it for several minutes. It was a bright white light. We followed it to Bakersfield, and all of a sudden to our utter amazement it went straight up into the heavens. When I got off the plane I told Nancy all about it." -President Ronald Reagan (Describing his 1974 UFO encounter to veteran newsman Norman C. Miller, then Washington bureau chief for the Wall Street Journal.)

How do I know? I was in charge! (A matter of public record)I think the kids on this planet are wise to the truth, and I think we ought to give it to them. I think they deserve it." -Colonel Philip Corso, Army Intelligence officer, former head of the Foreign Technology at the U.S. Army's Research and Development department at the Pentagon and former director of intelligence on President Eisenhower's White House National Security Staff

Monsignor Balducci is on a Vatican commission looking into extraterrestrial encounters, and how to cope with the emerging general realization of extraterrestrial contact.
THANKS MUCH for your kind reply.
THAT’S A GREAT COLLECTION OF QUOTES!
Have copied it to a Word file. May I use it from time to time? Any one source or your own collection from many sources?
Is it toooo risky for you to comment on a guesstimate of how many . . . colleagues you personally knew who were/are certain or relatively certain of the sorts of facts your quotes discussed?
Such as say . . . a half dozen
a dozen
several dozen
several hundred
??
Oh, re Quix
You may be unaware, when I was allowed back in the fold . . . I was still in Taipei and a number of my students would volunteer from time to time that I was
“The most chilvarous” person they’d ever met or known.
I was looking for a screen name that was short, very unique and easy to remember.
I also wanted one that had SOMETHING to do with my personality, my nature and/or habits.
I also have long liked the Don Quixote story.
So that settled it.
Thanks for your comment.
Naysayers on these sorts of threads have often posted a pic of the cereal box as a personally assaultive diatribe. Though some post it in good humor and friendliness.
I wonder if . . .
anything can be said about . . .
whether or not
a certain source has been ‘chipped’ or not.
