A lot of people on FR are kind of in the dark ages of attitude toward UFO's as a topic. There's usually a group who rush to with great hostility, insult, derision, etc. assault anyone who dares hereon to treat the topic seriously, worthy of thoughtful discussion.
This thread has been way better than ever in recent years. Not sure why.
