I guess the question then is when the term "UFOlogist" is used in this context, who is being called a "UFOlogist"? Is it only those who call themselves UFOlogists, or is it intended to refer to anyone who participates in discussions in threads like this one who think it's more likely than not that non-terrestrial life has visited earth? Or, as in the case of at least one participant in this thread, have said they, themself, have seen one or more UFOs?
