I was with her on the Atomic Energy Commission corruption stuff but then she apparently went into a psychotic break with Mengele and Stalin. Should be a hot book since she's apparently pissing off both sides of the fence.<br /><br />But she went single-source on us at the end.

Would the simplest explanation be that Roswell was a product of terrestrial military testing and experimentation, or that radar or a pigeon knocked out the navigational system of an extra terrestrial craft?<br /><br />Of course, not knowing the level of technology and advanced ET civilization might have, it's not entirely easy to apply <i>Occam's Razor</i>. Maybe it's really fucking easy to travel vast interstellar distances when you're millions of years ahead of us. And maybe even with that advancement under one's belt, shit still happens -- like the breaks going out, or even bad judgement brought on by driving under the influence. *snort*<br /><br />You are right, though. When it it comes to mainstream media, it could <i>never</i> be aliens. Which in itself is a little ridiculous. It still portrays us as the center of the universe, which we most definitely are not. If there are even a 100 advanced ET civilizations in the Milky Way, chances are they've noticed earth. Much like we notice planets such as <i>Gliese 581d</i>, and note it's habitable zone.<br /><br />I mean, come on. We Earthers are looking for earth-like habitable planets, for a few reasons. One i search for possible life, two, for future Earth homes, because we're gonna need a second (or third, or fourth) home, if we keep multiplying. So, isn't it conceivable that at least a few extra terrestrial civilizations would need to do the same? <br /><br />That argument is often brushed off easily, when I don't think it really can be. We're talking about hundreds of billions of stars in a single galaxy alone. If there are a large number of tech-savvy civilizations out there, yeah, many of them probably won't be at all human-like in nature or even in composition, but at least some will be. It's argued that you really can't anthropomorphize unknowns, which I often agree with, but just as it is improbable that we are the only life in the universe, it is also improbable that we are the only carbon-based life in the universe requiring similar ingredients, and composed of similar needs and emotions.<br /><br />Whether anyone else has been here, or not -- that's the burning question. Despite arguments of why it is unlikely, it isn't impossible. Therefore, it's perfectly acceptable to consider it as a plausible reality.Deirdrehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04423108917664239449noreply@blogger.com
