I believe for a very long time these visitors have large bases here on earth. I also feel that if they didn't care we would be positive of their existence because they would land anywhere they wanted. I am sure you've studied Ted Phillips. Many of his landing cases describe UFOs which seem to be in trouble and landing in the rural areas. Which is what would be expected if they didn't want to be discovered. Also if you believe some of the entities sightings reports, usually if the beings do not initiate contact, they end up trying to hide and get away. This has been reported in dozens of credible UFO reports.<br />This does not mean they want us completely in the dark but it does mean for me they want to do, what ever they do, with us, in their time and with as much control as possible.<br />I also believe the military knows they are here but the only messages between our government and these ETs is done through the overt actions by these beings and their UFO craft, like at Stephenie Texas as they headed toward the Presidents ranch, the Washington DC flyby or nosing around and interfering in out top military facilities. <br />This is how humans talk, mostly in these situation, by actions not discourse. As I have always maintained these ETS know us psychologically better than we know ourselves. <br />There is no conclusive proof that these are ETs but we are here and there's a great deal of planets out there and the only thing standing in their way of them coming here is our interpretation of the Universe. <br />Thanks <br />Joe <br />UFOMMJoseph Capphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12428219762980782866noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6624008755912934271.post-34000290658076979102010-03-30T14:03:27.646-04:002010-03-30T14:03:27.646-04:00Joe,

If they are truly "out there" somewhere then we could pose no danger to them whatsoever. The advent of nuclear energy and weapons is absolutely meaningless and here is why. Nuclear energy is pretty useless for interstellar travel. We will not be jumping in nuclear powered starships and zooming off to the stars anytime in the foreseeable future. To travel to the stars with any kind of lethal intent (packing atomic heat) would require us to develop something even more dangerous and powerful than our present nuclear technology could ever be. If they have bases here and have been here since ancient times then whose planet it is anyway? We seem to be the johnny-come-lately not them. I think it is convenient for "them" (and perhaps the government) for us to think they are from somewhere else. However, I think it is a mistake to come to any real "belief" one way or another about it. Viewing things through an established belief system causes a person to interpret data in a certain way. Hence the interpretation of some that UFOs are demons and so forth. It is the same for the ET hypothesis. I honestly think that they don't care if we see them or not. Sightings are just accidents of perception. The phenomena is indifferent much as we would be if we went for a walk in the woods and startled some squirrels that happened to see us.Ricky Poolehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07961047550977479085noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6624008755912934271.post-48807546686460195272010-03-25T19:54:38.560-04:002010-03-25T19:54:38.560-04:00Dear Trained Observer,
A well thought out comment ...Dear Trained Observer,<br />A well thought out comment and a reality dose for sure. However the idea that we haven't figured out the true nature of what is here actually lends credence to the idea that they may not only be technologically superior, but even psychologically superior to us. In every way they have befuddled explanation and yet at the core of the phenomenon is evidences of some possible ET common sense strategy. They monitored us during very dangerous times and have seemed to send warning messages to the powers that be. For me when it comes to humans causing possible harm to them they don't mind stepping out of their many, many faces and flexing their advanced tech muscles. <br />Thanks<br />Joe<br />ufommJoseph Capphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12428219762980782866noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6624008755912934271.post-32972724464315394012010-03-25T13:32:46.270-04:002010-03-25T13:32:46.270-04:00While you're correct Joe, the Internet has inc...While you're correct Joe, the Internet has increased the proliferation of reported UFO sightings, I think it has also added just as much, if not more, noise into the mix than ever before. If you review the old UFO books and testimony and compare what is going on today I think you have to conclude that we haven't progressed in any real way in understanding the UFO phenomena. It is still a large mystery. It might even be said that with the advent of the Internet it is even easier for outstanding UFO reports or evidence to be marginalized and neutralized. With the advent of cheap, easy to use, digital image processing software, an 8 year old can produce realistic, convincing UFO photographs and video footage. More and more UFO 'evidence' appears on the Internet daily. However, as I've already mentioned, none of it appears to add one iota to our understanding of the phenomena itself. As attractive as the ET hypothesis might be, we still have no viable evidence that proves these things are truly of on an ET origin. We have no evidence of their origin whatsoever. We just have the same theories that were being batted around in the 50s and 60s. The exact same ones! It seems that the mystery and secrecy surrounding the phenomena isn't controlled by human agencies but rather by the phenomena itself. Given its history and continued behavior I hold little or no hope that it will choose at some future date to reveal itself to mankind. In fact, I have begun to wonder if it might not be possible for it to do so. Think about how impossible it would be for humans to "reveal" themselves to any other species that live on this planet that is beneath us on the food chain. John Lilly spent his life attempting to communicate with dolphins. While it can be argued that he made some progress it never reached past the level of your average alien abduction experience. Perhaps "they" can no more land on the White House lawn and announce their presence than we could announce ourselves to a pod of dolphins. Yeah sure we could make them notice us, scare the b-jesus out of them, maybe even befriend them by feeding them some fish, but actually understand each other? Probably not. I think we're screwed by the limitations imposed upon us by our species operational specifications. Figuratively speaking, we can't get our Commadore 64 code to comprehend the code running on their Cray CX1-iWSs no matter what we do! While I do feel that the study of the phenomena is important and necessary, I think we have realize we are pretty much at its mercy as far as any real understanding or even detection of it goes. Pardon me for my cynicism but I paid for it in full and I like to whip it out occasionally to feel like I'm getting my money's worth.Ricky Poolehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07961047550977479085noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6624008755912934271.post-6447416758089451742010-03-24T12:07:33.194-04:002010-03-24T12:07:33.194-04:00Dear Kevin,

This will lead to better quality, however I still believe it is hard to get clear defined photos of UFOs, unless they are hovering or straight on, because they change the space around them when they fly. <br />Thanks<br />JOeJoseph Capphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12428219762980782866noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6624008755912934271.post-44232366741124988082010-03-24T09:33:35.872-04:002010-03-24T09:33:35.872-04:00With the future advances in digital camera tech (w...With the future advances in digital camera tech (we'll have these new cameras within 2 years), we are bound to get much more high quality UFO photos.

It seems hard to pin point classic evidence rich sightings in the 90s and 00s while some sightings in the early days of Ufology were some of the best proff of such objects. I think it might be because the internet has led to a info overload on UFO data. Following that point, what cases in the past 25 to 30 years do you think will be solid casebook examples like Betty and Barney Hill? I think the second question would make a great post!!:)<br /><br />popintellectPopintellecthttp://popintlect.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.com
