I might have assigned guilt by association. I’m not currently interested in going back and checking.

If I did, I’m sorry about that.

However, your wording, attitude and tone is consistent with those of the assaultive naysayers, FWIW.

My research? Really.

I happen to be the originator and manager of the FR UFO PING LIST.

I have lots of battle scars from that role.

I have studied the topic since 1960 actually. I thought it was 1962 but it was more likely 1960. Maybe that’s longer than you’ve been alive.

There are lots of mysteries and unknowns and disinformation in the field. There’s also a lot that’s been distilled out.

Those of us who have studied the topic for a long time have a distilled gestalt for some of the basic realities in the field.

We have no great compulsion to cast pearls into the hog wallow.

Not sure how many assertions even, about the topic, that I’ve made on this thread. I mostly came on to help defend TaraP against the ignorant hostiles.

That’s part of your problem. You assume anybody that asks a question is a naysayer, then you shout a bunch of insults, and never bother to even try to prove anything.

Yes your research. I assume you’ve done a bunch but the best you’ll present to anybody is root links to possibly related websites buried in posts filled with shouted insults. Boil down some essence, make sure to avoid the things you consider to be disinformation and hoaxes and bring it to the table. You talk a lot about logical errors, so obviously you know the rules of logical discourse, so you know that by those rules it’s the job of the asserter to defend the assertion.

If you don’t want to cast pearls before the hog wallow then why even have a ping list for discussion of the topic? Sounds like what you want is an echo chamber, nothing but true believers patting each other on the back. Discussions include questions, but you shout at all questions as flawed assumptions and balderdash by naysayers. You put yourself in a pretty bad light when a simple post of “got facts?” gets this: “GROSSLY FLAWED ASSUMPTIONS AGAIN”, for an answer. If there’s a grossly flawed assumption in asking you to present facts it would be an assumption in your favor (ie that you have facts that could be presented), screaming at the person pretty much says you don’t.

You’ve made lots of assertions on this thread. Including one about thousands of scientifically verified landings.
