Hi, Jack;
 
 JS> I had a flying saucer sighting in 1953.
 II> Was it a FLYING SAUCER, (specifically round and flat), or was it a
 II> UFO,
 JS> Round and flat.
 JS> I never said it was flown by aliens.
 
I didn't say you did, did I?  But if not, then by who?
 
 II> Did it appear to be intelligently controlled?
 JS> Yes.
 II> please speculate on who was at the controls?
 JS> Me? Speculate?  OK... ...Little green men.
 
AH HAH!  So you now consider the POSSABILITY that it was being controlled
by "someone/thing" from "somewhere else"?  Got any OTHER possabilities?
 
 JS> I did say I didn't think we had that kind of technology back then.
 II> But you would have no way of knowing - unless you worked at Area 51,
 II> that is.  (And I'm reasonably sure that you didn't and didn't know
 II> anyone that did).
 II>  JS> Not all people who believe in UFOs think they are piloted by
 II> aliens.
 
Ya, I have one living next door to me... He would rather believe that
a UFO is a flock of birds/airplane/temperature inversion/mirage/cloud/
baloon/Venus/the Moon behind a cloud/meteor/an overdose of painkillers/
someone's prank/his imagination than to CONSIDER the POSSABILITY, (however
remote), that something which he and 1,000 other people saw and showed
up on 8 different radars COULD be piloted by intelligent beings from
"somewhere else"!!!  I really believe that if he were to see a UFO land
in the back yard, saw occupants come out, talked with same, then watched
them go back in and fly away, he would be over here accusing me of putting
LSD in his drinking water or something.  (He denies this).
 
 II> Granted.  However recent surveys indicate that a majority of
 II> Americans now believe that ET's do exist and that they ARE visiting
 II> us.
 JS> Do you?  What do you think they are here for?
 
I do not discount the possability, in fact, I consider it a very strong
possability, based upon several things which I believe I have elucidated
here in the past.
 
 JS> It's fun to think about it though.
 II> Yes, and a lot of people do think about it, ranging from abductees
 II> to authors of books, movies, and folk who post in this echo.  
 JS> Our resident skeptics don't believe such.
 
Like the one next door... Is he a skeptic or an FNB?   :-}
 
Catch you later... Happy New Year to you and yours!
