Actually. My brother and I did see a U.F.O. once. Whatever my brother and I saw, it was not an air craft. It had to have been very bright because my brother and I were in a well lit parking lot when we saw it. Only the brightest of stars could be seen. We watched it for a few minutes, and it was making these VERY sharp zig-zag type movments untill it finally shot away toward the North if I remember correctly.
I also saw a black disk shaped object in North Carolina once. My brother wasn't there for that sihting.

It was probably a bird or large moth lit up from underneath by the lights of the well-lit parking lot.
Even Baloo was fooled by something like that once. (Dig up that old post, willya?)

Show them! Nothing better than debunking these things!
Aliens? They MUST exist The most likely haven't found us They most likely are NOTHING like us They most likely are not capable of communication with us (we can't even understand other species on our own PLANET!) We most likely don't have any fruitful relationship. Space war is ridiculous. Is way to difficult and way to clumsy and useless. Space is big enough for all, I think.
And anyway, we'll eventually create our own alien species (humans colonizing a far planet, no contact with home, evolving to unique species, etc.).

Aliens are out there. Just not here. Most likely.
Ninety-something percent of sightings have been proven to be fakes. I.E., Projects Grudge, Sign, and Blue Book in the '50s & '60s found this out. Of course, if you believe in the government conspiracies, these studies were rigged because they already had a craft that crashed at Roswell/Corona in '47, etc, etc, etc....
Most UFOs, IMO, are simply misunderstood objects, and the weirder ones are the results of odd military planes such as the Dark Star and Tacit Blue aircraft.

Hehe... I don't even think the Martians want it, but what choice do they have?

Delta Vega. ahhh yes. Project sign, grudge, and blue book. All of which were the same project. 90% were designated as TRUE unknowns? B.S. What you probably do know is that the govenment gave bogus explanations for many more sightings.
An example of this is a repoted sighting by Jesse Wilson in March 18, 1959. When he developed photographs he took of the moon he noticed that one of his photographs captured 34 bright objects arcing in a line formation away from the moon. Upon investigation, the government dismissed the sighting as nothing more than a static electrcal discharge in Wilson's camera, dispite the fact that that explanation was ruled out during the investigation.
In a related note. I know what aircraft like Dark Star and Tacit Blue look like. Some of the pictures I've seen are definetly not them. Trust me. Tacit Blue paticularly looks so ugly I don't think I could ever forget what it looks like.

Projects Sign, Grudge, and Blue Book were NOT the same project. Project Sign was established after the Kenneth Arnold sighting in 1947. It evolved into Project Grudge in the mid 1950's, and then the United States Air Force UFO study concluded in the 1960's with Blue Book. They were all seperate projects with seperate staff and investigative techniques.
I realize the investigators made many mistakes, but a lot of the teams did the best they could. It was an understaffed and underfunded project, and some directors left because of this. Dr. J. Allen Hynek was picked to help Blue Book not because of his expertise, but because he was the closest astronomer, so yes it did suffer from short commings. This was mainly because of the Condon Committe's report that UFOs are mass hysteria or something (forgot exactly). If you'll note in my earlier post, I did NOT specifically say that aliens or whatever are not here. Just most sightings are fake and/or misunderstood. Some may be real, I do not know.
And there is a rather famous Iranian case of a UFO sighting with a picture, where the craft looks a lot like the Tacit Blue.

I love these things. Sure.
I remember watching a "UFO" report some guy did a while back showing a UFO that was reported to be a 'true unknown.'
It was sort of blurry, and looked like a cylinder standing on one end and rotating back and forth on its long axis.
This guy was going on and on about how amazing it was, how it was far too non-aerodynamic to fly, and how it seemed to be hovering over a spot out over the ocean.
It took me all of a half-second to identify it by shape and motion alone.
It was the Budweiser beer-can-shaped hot air balloon. I've seen it at county fairs.
Human beings... are they gullible or just self-deluding?
