I'm not fully up to speed on this just yet but from what I understand previous surveys have been based around the idea that an earth-like planet would be orbiting a sol-like star, whereas this planet is orbiting a red dwarf (and is presumably populated by a senile computer, a felisapien, a...

That's not quite what I meant but you gotta admit, to people in the "real world" those of us on this board would probably be pictured as a collection overweight, 40 year-old virgins, living in our parent's basements, squintilly typing away on the interwebs about things that don't exist and...

It's awesome, isn't it? We finally have a decent target to aim at instead of the dozens of sorta-Jupiters we've discovered so far.

Sigh... isn't the discovery of the planet important enough? Do we have to be going to the fringe reports right out of the gate? How about we gather some data first? Chemistry, astronomy, you know... SCIENCE.

Dude, seriously when did you turn into such a complete and total dick? I remember having conversations with you in the past the were both civil and informative. WTF? Oh and for future reference, telling someone on this board to "get a life"... kinda falls flat.

Uh-huh. I can't help but notice you didn't answer the question I posed. That's getting to be a habit for you lately.

Technically your spelling was fine, you just substituted a homophone. It happens.

"Personal". "Personnel" would be staff. But okay, for the sake of argument let's say Angel did investigate and found it to be something mundane, what then? Wouldn't that just be egg in the face of the believers and another smugly indented notch in the belt of the skeptics? No, scotsmax and Ron...

FOIA? I'm not saying such devices couldn't exist btw, I'm just not buying that they would be used in the manner and on the scale Pilkington suggests.

Behold: theoretical physicists masterbating!

What's that they say about lying down with dogs? This does nothing to help Scamalot's reputation but it sullies Salas' slightly (try saying that five times fast!).

That doesn't really address the underlying point I was making though. If such a device existed in 1952 as Pilkington implied, it would be making regular appearances in the theatre of war by now, probably have been captured or copied by enemies of the USA and would most likely be common...

Good episode. I found the idea of the radar-jamming-device-that-makes-fake-ufos a little hard to swallow though. I'm not saying such a device couldn't exist but given the havoc it would wreak with air travel alone, to say nothing of the interference it would cause during military operations I...

Not really. According to the information we've been given up til now, the odds of these things going down AT ALL is distantly remote. Obviously it's not impossible that such a thing could happen but given the circumstances it seems like an irrational clutching-at-straws to declare it mere...

Replacing one assumption with another assumption is hardly a concrete excercise, Ezechiel.

I haven't seen any of the conference yet but I did manage to catch it being mentioned when I was flipping around the tv this afternoon and landed on CNN during "Rick's List". Except it wasn't Rick it was that woman he has on with him for "trending" I think it's called. In the space of TWO...

Unscientific gibberish. On the plus side, you haven't mentioned "quantum mechanics"... yet... Evidently, you don't understand deception as a tactic of war. Ignoring the "hows" and "whys" for a minute, these beings, fearing our innate hostility could seek to appear as peacemakers, lulling us...

None of that makes any sense. The Andromeda galaxy is a galaxy, it's part of THIS universe and it's not made of light anymore than our sun is "made of light". It produces light but that's an entirely different matter. Also, light already exists as part of our "3rd dimensional world", it's not...

I don't even know where to start with this one... Posts like this make me wonder that if THIS is the alternative, perhaps I should seriously consider putting the blinders back on and just pretending like there is no UFO phenomenon. But what the hell: Do these "angelic beings" have blue skin?

Sounds like a paranormal madlib. I'll stick with FRINGE.
