Curiously Confused
So I have the latest copy of Popular Mechanics and on the cover it says, "PM Investigates UFO Myths". It is an article that centers around Stephenville and is punctuated by other tidbits of nonsense. There is a section explaining the Leonids, Venus, Plasma, and lenticular clouds. There is a section showing the outlines of old top secret military planes like the SR-71 and the B-2. There is even a handy-dandy timeline of UFO events. Like the movie "Flying Saucers attack" and "Close Encounters". They even managed to put Whitley Streibers book in there.
The second section of the article (the first debunking section) has this gem of a quote. "There is no dispute that UFOs exist - that is, objects flying through the sky that are unidentified. (In fact, on in seven Americans say they have seen UFO's.) But that, of course, does not mean they are ships from a distant Galaxy. We humans tend to leap to conclusions, imagining alien spacecraft while discounting more likely explanations."
OK, you all should know by now that I do not hold the ETH to be the absolute answer. But, if it is a spaceship why of why does it have to be from another damn galaxy?
The main section is oozing with conempt for the hapless and backwards people of Stephenville. Clearly this is a town filled with stupid fuckers. I'll bet the whole town is pissed after reading this.
But wait, there is more! The shit peddlers that spawned this literary abomination chose to attack the MUFON radar report on the good word of that fuckhead Magaha. He says the thing tracked on radar was.... wait for it.... temperature inversions! If anything at all. In fact he says MUFON just made it up. He says they had a bunch of information and just created the return out of thin air. What a goddamned travisty! How do these fucking "journalists" sleep at night?
