There are no aliens. It’s a buncha guys in supersecret craft doing their best to generate the impression they’re from somewhere else. When american pilots were testing the first generation of jet planes, sometimes they put on gorilla suits so that when people reported airplanes without propellers, they would be discredited. It’s standard operating procedure.

I think it's safe to say, dear Kevmo, that you have a strong conjecture that reports of "alien sitings" are "side shows"; and that the U.S. military is involved with propagating such false reports. You may be right about this!

So you definitely go on my little list of potentially credible alternatives to the standard space alien/UFO myth that has been widely propagated in our society, thanks to speculations about Area 51 and its "contents."...

Anyhoot, at the time I heard the accounts just described, I quite independently took notice of the fact that U.S. military installations were then close-by, from simple recollection of contemporaneous local knowledge.

This probably puts me closer to your strong conjecture than I am to the standard Area 51 claims.

Thank you ever so much for writing, dear brother Kevmo!

I really wish you would read that book “Intercept UFO”. It’s a good read, almost as good as the book you published. The technology is actually pretty straightforward, until 1952. Then things get astounding, and “instantaneous” accelerations start to be reported. But that doesn’t have any weight towards the ORIGIN of these secret aircraft, which appeared in 1947, just 2 years after the allies won WWII and the designs were implemented.

***They occur over a military airbase, correct? Doesn’t Ockham’s Razor dictate that this portends more towards a secret-weapon hypothesis rather than the ET hypothesis? Or do you actually believe that aliens run our guvmint?
