More simplistic and peurile mind games. Why don't you trot down to your
local mental institution and plead with them to have your nervous system
checked for chemical imbalance. You may be suffering from a brain
disorder which could bloom into a full scale attack of paranoid
schizophrenia one day, if you aren't careful to have checked now.

In a 1952 classified report for the Air Technical Intelligence


Center

(ATIC) at Wright Patterson Air
Force Base, Hynek recommended that the UFO question be given "the
status
of a scientific problem,"
freeing the scientists from the restraints of secrecy which confuse

the


public. "The number of truly
puzzling incidents is now impressive," he reported. "The first


effort

should be to determine with great
accuracy what the phenomena to be explained really are and to

establish


their reality beyond all
question."16"

"The testimony of Dr. James E. McDonald, senior physicist of the
Institute of Atmospheric Physics and
Professor of Meteorology at the University of Arizona, was the most
extensive. A respected authority
and leader in the field of atmospheric physics, McDonald had


authored

highly technical papers for
professional journals. He spent two years examining formerly

classified


official file material and radar
tracking data on UFOs; interviewing several hundred witnesses; and
conducting in-depth case
investigations, details of which were provided to the Committee."

"McDonald told the Committee that no other problem within their
jurisdiction compared to this one.
"The scientific community, not only in this country but throughout

the


world, has been casually
ignoring as nonsense a matter of extraordinary scientific

importance."


McDonald indicated that he
leaned towards the extraterrestrial hypothesis as an explanation,


due

to
"a process of elimination of
other alternative hypotheses, not by arguments based on what I


could

call 'irrefutable proof.'" 24"

"Dr. Bernard Haisch, Director of the California Institute for


Physics

and Astrophysics and author of
over a hundred published papers, agrees. "I propose that true
skepticism
is called for today: neither the
gullible acceptance of true belief nor the closed-minded rejection


of

the scoffer masquerading as the
skeptic." Haisch was the editor of the JSE for twelve years. "Any
scientist who has not read a few
serious books and articles presenting actual UFO evidence should


out

of


intellectual honesty refrain

from making scientific pronouncements," he says. "To look at the



evidence and go away unconvinced
is one thing. To not look at the evidence and be convinced against


it

nonetheless is another. That is not
science. Do your homework!"84"

You are an idiot BP. This is not an insult to you by the way, just a
simple statement of fact.

MS, can't you hang on past one round of critiques. That would present more

No integrity.

MS, that is precisely the logic that the holocaust deniers use. "Give me

many. You cannot simply prove something with one piece of evidence. In the
case of the holocaust deniers, they narrow it down to one piece of "Physical

What do you think Wally? He wants us to turn the fight to each other. We
could have some competetive fun figuring out the flaws in his logic. Divide
and conquer is what he is thinking. What a jerk. Aww screw it.

If the astros are united...we will never be divided!
Up yours MS!

BP jumps on the anti-social psychopathological bandwagon. Of all his
posts, I think he contributed even less to scientific discussion of
astronomy than Wally. Maybe he is competing for for the number one
Usenet sociopath spot with him.

Yes, M.S. has degrees in both psychology and parapsychology and has tested
all of us extensively with his little "psyche" experiments and has been
able to prove conclusively that everyone posting on alt.astronomy (except
himself) is a certified sociopath. He claims that he is here to dialoge
with the "real men" (perhaps he is also a misogynist?) who discuss "real
ideas" but so far he has been unable to come up with a single person who
fits his description of one he deems worthy of an epithet other than
"sociopath."

God, you are right. I am an idiot.

Wally, Paul help...What the heck am I gonna do? Does this ruin my dream of
the PhD at Cal Tech. Man, I had no idea I was ...sniff, sniff stupid. Why
me? Why? That dashes my hopes of being a professor. What would the kids
think of me if they new I was stupid?
