in the UAP world. I never paid close attention but with the admissions in congressional hearings over the last few years and the sheer bizarreness of the drone incursions over military bases, and then the orbs, things are interesting. It’s unfortunate that whenever I find a rational discussion taking place, the skeptics swoop in to ridicule everything and the whole discussion space becomes polluted with nonsense.

You can count on me for a rec if you post more. Thanks!
