Re: UFOs
After watching some of the episodes I find none of the so called evidence as persuasive. To me it is all double talk and speculation to the point of absurdity. Truth is, the History Channel and the program producers are just foisting a big hoax on the viewers and laughing at the success of their show. Unfortunately some people do believe and accept what is being shown.RichLB wrote: Believe it or not, I have no investment in the alien theory - in fact, I don't really believe it.

Re: UFOs
Hmmmm.....speaking of confusing, you find the evidence "persuasive" but you say "in fact, I don't really believe it." I tend to believe persuasive evidence but, with respect to the "alien" stories, I have seen no such evidence that even approaches persuasive. Sorta like the Bigfoot sightings in my book.RichLB wrote: I confess your rebuttal has confused me.......

Re: UFOs
Until some countervailing arguments are presented I remain an advocate. I notice that those who reject the ongoing hypothesis do nothing more than write hysterical epithets and now attribute motives to the channel and producers without an iota of evidence. How about some intellectual integrity and presenting an argument in opposition rather than merely stamping your foot and saying, "It ain't so."windwalker wrote: After watching some of the episodes I find none of the so called evidence as persuasive.

Re: UFOs
Bob, I guess I am more of a skeptic than you. I find persuasive evidence just that - persuasive, but not convincing. The more I read the inputs of the naysayers, the more I begin to believe that maybe there are no better explanations for the anomalies we've been discussing. Merely proclaiming that the theory threatens prevailing wisdom is not compelling to me. How about some support for the rebuttal argument?Bob wrote: Hmmmm.....speaking of confusing, you find the evidence "persuasive" but you say "in fact, I don't really believe it."

Re: UFOs
It isn't? In reading the provided links and doing a Google for other articles, it is an extremely rare condition. But I didn't need to read those articles to know that. How many people have you seen walking around with a head shaped like the picture of the skull of Tutenkaman? Seems pretty rare to me.Gaybutton wrote: Dolichocephaly - which not even particularly uncommon.
