Even if a group debunked 99.9% of all sightings that still leaves a couple not explainable.

This is true and I have witnessed one myself (1986 Hudson Valley UFO sightings). But what I have trouble with is the leap people make between unidentified and extraterrestrial. I do not see how one automatically follows the other.

When they shoot off at tremendous speed...and without slowing down make 90 degree or 180 turns...no living being aboard could survive such G forces. Now they could be unmanned drones......

Agreed! I've seen two really impressive UFOs in my life. In both cases, I was able to watch them long enough to identify them as airplanes seen under very unusual lighting conditions.

If I hadn't been able to watch them long enough to identify them, I would have had more interesting, but less factual, stories.

Because the object you saw may have been similar or identical to the ones people have reported seeing in the 1800s...

Today, it could be our own technology...But it certainly wasn't back then...
