I was a serious ufo resarcher for about 20 years. I confered and consulted with Dr. J Allan Hyneck, astrophysicist and chief of project Bluebook at his home several times. There has been hard factual evidence of exceptional craft but as for the 'organic alien pilots' virtually nothing substancial. I remotely confered with Dr.John Mack Harvard professor who explored the psychology of those who claim 'close encounters'(a Hyneck term) and I exposed researchers who used bad science and leading interrogations via hypnosis. In the loony fringes of a ufo community if you critisize one you are a threat to all the con men.
Nothing is sacred is my credo. John Mack was even handed in his approach and gave me an advanced copy of his book before he was killed during a UK visit in a pedestrian accident. Dr.Hyneck died of a similar brain cancer as John McCain but remained steadfast and passed the torch to many graciously till the end. Dr. Hyneck never had a sighting of extraordinary craft of his own. I have by some quirk of fate. But organic pilots? - NADA-ZIP-ZERO.
