Well, I guess someone has to say it. Might as well be me.
When you log in to this and other ufo sites, what are you expecting ?
I've been following the ufo trail since 1980 when I saw an odd object flying overhead.
And I've followed the writings of many people on a number of sites ever since. Made a few friends, and a couple of enemies. The former I cherish, the later ?well, hardly remember their names.
But I have got around to thinking recently, 'why bother ?'
I know what I'll get when I log in.
More of the same old same old. Rehashes of decades long sightings. A new list of ex-government personnel who suddenly remember the 'top secret' projects they were involved in (say Mac, didn't you sign a confidential 'never tell' paper about that ?). It seems there is an endless supply of retired generals who hop onto the old band wagon. First comes a 'revelation' , then a few tv interviews. The book generally follows about two years later.
The latest rage is revelations from the top echelons of the Government (Not, US government. The others are not saying much)
But, my friends, it all tells us nothing. Even the 'tic-tac' is old news; it was when we heard about it.
The one thing we want to know, even one example would do...
Where do they come from, what are they made of, why are they here ? No more speculation.
The US government has finally admitted that there is a 'there' there. That something does appear to exist; we could all have told them that much years ago, many did.
It was never in doubt.
So basically, to revert to the common idiom, I am bored shitless with the same old story.
I'll scan the sites as usual. But Please, please, no more confessions of General X, revamps of old Blue Book stuff, Additions to Rendlesham etc.
Its just boring.
