Having said that I did see (along with a second party) something wierd once, a light floating along in the sky, not explainable by plane, helicopter or satellite theories - silent, erratic motion, in dead calm weather.... never figured it out, but we did report it to the local UFO hunters.....
I would tend to disagree that most are liars, but agree that most are afraid of being tarred with that brush…at least in the west.

I do believe it was brave of you to admit to a sighting in this particular venue however.
There must be some reason other than mass insanity why most believe that there is something there.
