Yes, I can agree with that. My thought is that although they are unexplained, that does not make them unexplainable.

I'm more against the notion that they are non-human entities of some kind, controlling some kind of technology. I see nothing that can support that hypothesis.

Some unknown natural phenomenon, well, there are plenty of those. As Trained Observer pointed out, we didn't think there were meteors 200 years ago. People probably had crazy ideas about those too - they proved to be something physical and natural. Nothing to do with demons.

All I wanted to point out with my posting of Plait's blog is that the vast majority of what people hold up as evidence would probably not be unexplained if it had been seen by a different person.

Now, if Ray Stanford gets his photographs published of what he talked about, well, then I'll look like a dumb ass and so will many others. I'm looking forward to that, but I don't think it'll happen.
