WND : Carter UFO guru puts faith in crop circles
2006-04-15
The Truth Is Out There.
Btw, IIRC Jimmy Carter allegedly is a contactee (or at least saw an ufo) : now I understand better why he acts like he does, he's got a space worm parasiting his brain.

#10  My take on aliens is this:

I *know* there _really is_ a "great white father" in Washington, but I don't build my life around building a realistic-looking airbase out of bamboo and waiting for the cargo to come in.

WRT aliens, I think the same logic should apply. They may be out there but I don't think they're going to land tomorrow and save us from ourselves.

As for the Carter-is-a-Goa'uld idea, I doubt he'd be a very successful system lord.

#9  Cold desert night air and a hot ground can cause thermal (and density) differentials that can cause light from headlight to be refracted and see miles away.

#8  I've seen strange lights that move at what appear as incredible speeds - but I've seen them in the high desert (Mojave) and So Nevada - I have no doubts they are terrestrial - and paid for with our tax dollars. I approve

#7  I saw a UFO in 1973/4. Classic fat gray cigar shape that apparently accelerated away at high speed. I was outside about an hour after dawn. Watched it for at least a minute. I can tell you it wasn't a plane or ballon. Otherwise I have no idea what it was.

I think all this alien stuff is bollocks. My point being that there is no (necessary) relationship between seeing a UFO and believing this rubbish.

#6  Carter saw Venus. The few times Venus is visible at night (being closer to the Sun this is rare) it tends to be very bright and low on the horizon so that it is refracted by the atmosphere and skips. The nice thing about Venus is we can tell with absolute precision which nights Venus will appear and thus know ahead of time that a lot of UFO sitings are likley. The WW2 Foo Fighters were fighting Venus.
