I'm not making a claim either way about UFOs. I'm just saying your argument makes no sense -- there are volumes and volumes of (possibly false) information that has been leaked about UFOs by people who worked for the US government. See http://disclosureproject.org/. Or consider some of the Art Bell radio programs (http://artbell.com). The fact is we are drowning in leaked "information" about UFOs. > Besides, if a ship could make it all the way here, would it crash?

Yes, if there's one thing we've learned from Star Trek, it's that all alien species think more or less like us (as well as look like us, and speak the same language). -- :: tavin cole (tcole at espnow.com) :: _______________________________________________ Chat mailing list Chat at freenetproject.org http://lists.freenetproject.org/mailman/listinfo/chat
