Well, I'll grant you that the media, print or electronic or whatever, has an attention span just a little bit shy of the half-life of plutonium, yeah. 8-)

I also suspect that most (not all!) journalists wouldn't know what questions to ask OR how to report it if a UFO (or a lot of other things) fell at their feet. What isn't understood is too often shoved off into the little mental corner called "if I don't think about it it didn't happen".

As I said, I'm not denying their existence. I'd just like to see physical proof, like TIA said. Either in the flesh (so to speak) or by solid, irrefutable evidence. God(dess), but that would be exciting!
