No shit? I hate that crap, it just muddies the waters.I still think their is enough legitimate claims(like multiple lie detector tests on close encounters) and historical records as well as gov. released info to support a reasonable theory that somethings going on,however, as we get more technologically advanced I suspect alot of sightings are mis-identified military craft..and we always have to be aware of those people who will believe anything(steve Quale),just as bad as the "swamp gassers"

"as we get more technologically advanced I suspect alot of sightings are mis-identified military craft" I have no doubt! I was traveling down from Scotland and saw a nearby low flying "UFO". It was like nothing I had seen before. This was just before the 1st gulf war and I saw the same vehicle, it was a stealth bomber, which had been under wraps until then! "lie detector tests" can be faked by the interviewee learning how to!

From what the people that do lie detectors say its extremely difficult,as you have to control involuntary physiological responses,so even if we say some of these people had this extraordinary ability(which few of our"agents" can do even with training)in cases where several passed on the same event represent some crazy odds.But I personally like older records like before we had aircraft,back when people really sky watched and knew atmospheric phenomenon,and military people who share insider info

The cumulative research evidence suggests that machines do detect deception better than chance, but with significant error rates and that strategies used to "beat" polygraph examinations, so-called countermeasures, may be effective.

Yeah, be that as it may the folks Ive seen pass dont strike me as intellectual giants with the fore thought or capability-and i could be totally wrong-I'm not one to claim "emperical evidence"

"folks Ive seen pass dont strike me as intellectual giants" beware the people that started the "spiritual church" con were hardly high up in the IQ stakes. But were crafty con people! If you have seen some of the early photos of these people in action it defies belief what they got away with!

Thats a whole other social demographic, but yeah, It never ceases to amaze me what people will follow..from personal experience though many of these (especially religious movements) are rarely well planned, they take on a momentum of their own...socially isolated or identity deficient individuals-even somewhat intelligent ones will latch on to a belief system as long as it seems to explain everything in a matter that doesnt require them to do much thinking on their own-White Power is an example

@ kviapunx

Good points well made!
