WHY would a serious journalist like Peter Jennings tackle a silly subject like UFOs? Maybe it's because 40 million Americans can't be wrong. It turns out that 40 million of us have claimed to have seen UFOs, while half yes, half of all Americans believe in their existence < snip >
So, why, if millions of people have seen UFOs, are the eyewitnesses immediately reduced to the level of raving loonies (from "lunar")? Interestingly enough, that is the legacy of another successful government PR campaign < snip >
The feds thought they could keep a lid on UFO sightings and keep a budding worldwide panic under control by making witnesses look crazy. Yes, it seems you could fool all of the people all of the time < snip >
Good for Jennings for reaching for the stars!

If all the real UFO"s went away today, there would still be as many sightings tomorrow.
ROFLMAO! Where did you find that? That pix is hillarious! I love Dubya's expression. It's priceless. :)
LOL! If that isn't proof of an Alien Lifeform, I don't know WHAT is. :)
Ahem. Wrong.
Some kid came forward and said the photos were faked, and they were somehow able to "magically produce" the model. There was only one problem, and it came in the form of the program Unsolved Mysteries.
They took the model and used it to duplicate one of the most widely seen photographs taken by Walters, where the craft in question is seen very close to a road. When the photo was taken and compared, you could see two obvious things: 1) The contours of the ship in Walters' photo is different from that of the model. 2) Light from the craft is being reflected from the road in Walters' photo. It is not present in the picture taken by Unsolved Mysteries.
What was actually happening was some people had taken steps in an attempt to ruin the reputation of Ed Walters. They failed.
Whitley Streiber is totally unbalanced (a "phantasy prone" personality) as his own books abundantly reveals.
Well, gee, J.R.R. Tolkien, C. S. Lewis and L. Frank Baum wrote a whole series of books that were "phantasy prone." Does having an imagination and writing novels make you totally unbalanced?
Unless you can come up with something more specific that addresses the things he experienced instead of making a blanket statement that attacks Streiber himself, maybe you should just sit down and shut up about the man.
Don't thank me, you did that all by yourself.
Next!
I missed it,Will it be on again ???????
