Flying saucers and strange beings who have visited Earth aren't the typical topics reported by Peter Jennings, anchor of ABC's "World News Tonight." Jennings, whose new two-hour special tackles the subject of UFOs, admits he and his production team began the project with doubts and a dose of curiosity.
 
"We have a lot of skeptics -- I am very skeptical -- but we seriously investigated something a lot of people are serious about," he said. "And when we come to the end, this is wonderfully interesting.
 
 "More than 80 million Americans believe intelligent beings from somewhere else have come here," he said. "Forty million believe they have seen UFOs, so this is of deep interest to people."

Unfortunately none of that intelligence found its way to Washington!

    "How To Recognise An Alien" They have no pulse or heartbeat 
 They need to regenerate themselves at regular intervals otherwise they die 
 When they die, they incinerate, leaving virtually no trace 
 Some of them have a mutated fourth finger 
 When they are wounded, they don't bleed 
 Pure Oxygen is fatal to them 
 They have no emotions 
 Hmmm ... where did you say you were from again Peter?

    After never watching that show, no matter how many friends said it was just my kinda show, I've started watching it on DVD. I'm through seasons 1-4 and really liking it, though seeing it in such a compressed schedule shows how tenuous some of the "myth" stuff is. Good stuff, though I prefer Millennium in some ways.

    I think angels may be aliens, or the Star of Bethleham was a UFO.

    I find it hard to believe that we've been visited from elsewhere in the universe and the only evidence remaining is the verbal evidence of some odd people.

    He has been seeing things for a long while now ,Maybe he should lay off the pipe.

    A Canadian High School drop-out and speechwriter for Barbra Streisand (Yes, that is Jennings!) pontificates about the mother ship.
