Convention demands the following declaration: I had not been drinking or taking drugs, I hadn’t dozed off and reawoken, and I wasn’t in a general state of agitation. It was a perfectly normal evening: I had gone to bed and was waiting to fall asleep. Nothing remotely similar has ever happened to me before or since.

Whatever I saw in Manchester was there in front of me — there remains no doubt in my mind about that, even after 32 years — but I have never worked out what it was.

Seeing and believing used to belong together only when they occurred in the mass... René Descartes undertook ‘never to accept a thing as true until I knew it as such without a single doubt’. Doubt was the primary basis for the rationalism of the Enlightenment, so the first witness to the miraculous had to be seen to have seen. In the age of electronic mass media, when so much flashes around the world instantaneously, when video clips, in a telling usage, ‘go viral’, there should be no doubt about what is real and what isn’t. Yet the critical mass is no longer critical. There is an air of the semblance, of ‘facticity’, about what we are urged to look at. The very fact that it is shrieking for public attention tends to speak against it.

Globull warming. And Bush’s fault.

The devil and his legions try not to be seen these days.
Global Warming has led to a Sasquatch population boom. One thing all aliens fear is Sasquatch.
It’s probably due to the rise of ubiquitous filming in the form of security cameras, camcorders and phones. When images were rare and grainy, anything was possible. With a few camcorder images for a few minutes, questions arose as to why video didn’t match eye witness descriptions. In a world where people pass 50 cameras to get to work, there’s no room for theoretical aliens.
However, this doesn’t preclude us engineering an artificial or mutated life-form in our lifetimes.
global warming?
Instead of those who rejected Christianity looking for saviors from the skies, we have a new generation worshiping Mother Earth, practically pagan, with a fixation on magic, death cults and vampires.

Why no UFOs?
Their job is finished. They got Obemba elected. Now all they have to do is to sit back and wait for total destruction then move in.
It was a true pleasure reading such a well written, literate essay. Tucked inside that essay are some very deep thoughts.
It's the economy, stupid.
because now everyone thinks they are drones
Because they’re massing in another dimension for the final assault?
That’s a problem with transient phenomena — they happen without warning and unlikely to be repeated.
I thought it was pretty good.
