Default Re: Do you believe in UFOs?

Bill, thanks for the reply. Still, this fellow below brings up an important issue:

UFO Types:

http://www.ufomystic.com/wake-up-dow...-models-types/

Why so many UFO "Models"? Here’s one for the aliens-from-other-planets believers: In the history of the UFO subject, I am at pains to find any two photographed, video-ed, or witnessed craft (or whatever they are) that are identical. Even if there are a few, among the thousands of UFOs over the past 60 years or more I defy anyone to find an exact match, especially if the sightings are separated by time or location. John Keel noted this fact long ago in Operation Trojan Horse. One site cataloging the myriad types can be found here. We hate making assumptions here on Ufomystic, but one would think that standardization would be in order to make things easier, especially if these things are coming from many light years away to take a look at us. Perhaps the craft don’t need to stop for repairs and exchange saucer parts like Southwest Airlines does on their one-model fleet. Another speculation is that our non-humans may not need to standardize, and craft are built for specialization down to the most exacting degree. Not all UFOs are shaped like flying saucers or cigars–some are decidedly non-aerodynamic.

...

A telling factor in this is the “standardization” of UFO occupants since the late 1970s. No longer do we hear about beer-can shaped robots, humanoids in spacesuits, or hairy dwarves. Actually, these reports may be out there, but the researchers (especially of the American sort) are most likely blocking out the stories that don’t conform to the big-headed, bug-eyed variety. Literalists and ETH-believers may counter that this is because all those other alien races lost interest or were pushed aside by the “grays” long ago.
