Subject: Anyone ever see a UFO?
Written By: Andrew-1972 on 01/02/04 at 08:46 a.m.
I know someone who says he saw one as a kid, at a Far-off distance, when he was at camp.

No I don't think he's a fraud. Too many of his associates recalled similar events and had nothing to gain and their reputations to lose.
I'll be the crazy one to admit I have seen one on three different occasions. My son told me he had seen the "greys" outside his window when he was five, we had never seen any movies that would bring him to that conclusion.
I posted a similar question on a another board and the response was huge.

I saw a UFO hoax once, but everyone kept telling me I was lying and that it must have been real aliens. Dang UFO hoax skeptics!

I've seen 'em in movies and documentaries about UFOs. Does that count? I've seen things in the sky that I could not identify. Isn't that UFO by definition? UFO does not equal flying saucer or alien craft. It simply means what it says, unidentified flying object.

maybe UFO should be changed to ETO (extraterrestrial technological object) or something like that to avoid loopholes in the argument about UFO's that anything you don't recognize is one. Even flying saucer is arguable - i could make a saucer (cup holder) fly for a few seconds before it crashes into a wall or falls on the floor. As for the intended question... i'm pretty skeptical about the existence of extraterrestrial intelligent life so i'm not sure either way whether we could have seen something coming from another planet - its possible that some other species sent out something a long time ago and it finally reached the earth in recent years.

Yes, but if you see a UFO, or the "Grays"
is it wise to report it to the Police,
or will they think you are Crazy or something.
What is the correct procedure?

Why is it that the Military does Nothing when UFO's appear?
I remember their was this famous incident in 1952 when
UFO's appeared above the White House, and Air Force jets tried to chase them away.
I even Read in this book, that when someone becomes President they tell him the Truth that intelligent life exists on other planets.

Yes. As a matter of fact I have....
One day, mid- afternoon, my mother and I were driving down a street in our car when stopped at a Stop sign. I looked up and out the window and focused in on what looked like a plane hovering in the sky. After a few seconds it dawned on me that planes don't hover. So I told my mom to look out her window. She saw it too and thought it rather odd. So we both got out of the car and had another look. After watching it hover for another 10 seconds it suddenly bolted across the sky and vanished into the distance. It looked like an outline with 4 lighted points. Yes, like wonder womens plane. It was definately not something normal.

Well once on a summer night a few years back, I saw a star move. I was looking at the sky one night a few years back, and I focused on these stars in the sky. And I swear one dropped down beside this other star.
