Hello Joe, Frank and List,

With all due respect, Joe, this is a lot of bull.

I am pretty tired of hearing this spurious argument over and over
again: the bulk of the astrology stuff in a year outweights by
far anything that is published in astronomy, and astronomy has
never been so popular.

You are faulting ufology for being perceived as fringe territory.

Hogwash.

The most damage comes from the alledged scientists who read the
smelly manure excreted with pseudo-competent geek talk and choose
to remain silent.

Science is not at fault. Scientists are.

The same alleged scientists, who are the first to beat to death
a case suffering from the Planet Venus syndrome, become strangely
mute when rubbish gets published by Popular Mechanics or CSISOP.

This is the pure cowardliness of choir boys who are there to
serve, ever so grateful to be part of something larger than them,
even if this means contributing to a big lie.

Faulting ufology is a cop out: it merely serves as the lamest
excuse to desecrate your lab uniform, making you a rat in the
process.

I don't care if so many people in the field are crackpots. My
God, crackpots are everywhere. How do you think the planet got
into this mess? Because of obsessive-compulsive competence?

And we should do nothing because, poor us, greed has trumped
honesty?

When scientists don't decry the CSISOP and PM B.S., they are, in
a sense, like those child molesting priests.

Pious hypocrites.

And they have NO excuse.
