Re: Radar not sole evidence.
  Well, of course not. Except maybe NORAD, but than that's so highly
classified there is no sense speculating on it. I am aware of
inversions & things that confuse radar operators.
 Re: Stigmata
  The phenomena where intense emotion causes physical changes. Ie,
religious fanatics who bleed from their palms, etc. As far as I know
its usually a fleeting thing. I have not heard of life-long scars.
 Re:Rationalization
  Most important defense mechanism when facing the unkown or troubling
events. Why would a traumatized person conjure an image even more
disturbing than the actual event? My biggest gotcha on purely
psychlogical theories of abductions, other than people who ACTUALLY
VANISH that is...
  The willies, the whole thing makes my skin crawl, but I remain
unconvinced of human genesis of the reports from the sheer strangeness,
a gov't. conspiracy would be more direct & have little hope of real
success.
 Sincerely,
