UFO Conjectures

You can’t just tell a UFO story with no there there

Copyright 2023, InterAmerica, Inc.
Google’s UFO Alerts for 1/29/23 were itemized by some recycled stories and dead-end reports.
 
George Knapp and Jeremy Corbell’s ongoing repetitious story of a UFO swarm engulfing a U.S. warship popped up again.
 
And George Noory’s Coast-to-Coast site was featured, the site so flush with ads that I didn’t see what Mr. Noory was extolling.
 
(If thse guys have a need for ad revenue as a living expense they should get a real job somewhere and quit using quirky news items, surrounded by ads, to pay their bills.)
 
Then there is a piece touting Malcolm Robinson – a FB friend – and his 45 years as a UFO “expert” with 10 books under his belt.
 
Malcolm’s books are superb – I’ve reviewed a few – and he is an expert but one with little cachet in the general UFO community, him busy with attention-seeking notes on social media but no resolutions to his investigated UFO events, all of which that have not been bettered by other UFO “experts.”
 
My point?
 
Playing with the UFO phenomenon for a lot of years doesn’t make one a UFO expert.
 
You are just an avid hobbyist.
 
But if you solve a UFO riddle, no matter how slight, you could attach “expert” to your name or effort, but the solved riddle better be something substantial and worthwhile
 
Otherwise, you’re just a moke treading water, gathering ad money from a web-site or blog, telling people you’re an expert when all you are is a person with a time-consuming hobby that takes you away from your family life and everyday existence.
 
There are no UFO experts – none!
 
And those guys reiterating the same stories over and over again are just pains in the ass for those of us who hope for, wish for, someone somewhere to give us an answer to the UFO enigma,

  • I'd call them failures as ufologists, whatever else they consider themselves to be or are labeled as. They're a horrible drag on the subject, having failed to add an iota of credibility to it, something it badly needs.

  • No UfO experts? I disagree. Dr. James McDonald was an atmospheric scientist and as close to an expert on UFOs as we are likely to ever get. He did the heavy research and analysis "lifting" on dozens of cases, including Heflin, and testified before Congress that the some UFOs were both real and likely a national security issue. "No UFO experts NOW" would probably be more accurate.

  • Dominick:

    Dr. McDonald was an exemplary UFO thinker but did not live long enough to accrue the title of expert, and only a few in the UFO community (old and new) remember him or his work.

    They are no UFO experts now and there have never been any....otherwise we'd not be in the UFO mess we're in.

  • There are some good thinkers out there amid the hucksters but how can you be an expert without experience and recent or ongoing experience or evidence? -For most of us just we are lucky to have one clear sighting.

    The threshold of being a UFO expert would require a reliable source first hand experience of some sort and that leaves the military in their broad opportunities world wide and especially the ability to command an organized reporting system and varieties of technical equipment.

    It is especially understandable that the with Navy ship borne personnel of lookouts with binoculars or better, radar operators (or better) in 24 hour operation, and common 24 hour aircraft patrols would be the the lead experts.

    Who else can compete with that? Can anyone?
