The Washington Post says we should "adjust" to the fact that UFOs exist....

Are they getting us ready for DISCLOSURE???

The problem is, as always, distance. Corporeal beings cannot travel at light speed or many times that number to pop in for tea and cakes. That darn space dust, and inconvenient minor planets and black holes getting in front of the windscreen. If their diaphanous beings with see through spaceships and can pass unaffected I guess it's possible.

Abductions and cattle mutilations that went on for decades are a whole different topic in itself.

I am just curious as to how the public views the existence of UFO and the possibility of us being "visited", which may or may not be sentient life forms.

Given all the difficulties of space travel (unless it is much different than what we imagine or guess it to be at this point of our own knowledge), chances are the UFOs are much like our own exploration probes, just on a much higher level of technological advancement. A UFO could very well be a drone from another planet simply doing reconnaissance work... Let's hope that whatever those "visitors" decide to do after does not threaten us.

But what would I know about this topic? I've only seen a "few" bonafide UFOs in my life and one that was clearly over my head that made me "feel" its presence when I was a child. I couldn't forget it even if I wanted to... Been researching the topic ever since.

I am glad to see that the public is becoming more aware and taking the topic much more seriously and without the idiotic ridicule of the skeptics as if they have all the answers to the "puzzle" we call our "universe"....

Serge.......I have felt relatively certain for quite some time that humans have been in contact with other life forms. I also lean toward thinking that some of the incredible technological advances developed in the last half century or perhaps a bit longer have been aided and benefited from knowledge bases greater than ours, most likely from more advanced beings than humans. Through all time until the present century advances in the manner in which we live, solve problems, and research what is unknown to us have crept along at a snails pace, but the speed at which astonishing advances have taken place in the past half century literally dwarfs every other stage of human development. My thinking leads me to believe there has been help from somewhere beyond what can be considered normal human intellectual enlightenment and growth. Call me crazy, but the notion of advance beings helping humans to solve unimaginably difficult problems and challenges doesn't seem that far of a stretch in logic.

The *REAL* question is what type of speaker cable and inter connects the aliens use on their audio equipment. And do Ethernet cables really make a difference in audio quality?
