I have a number of difficult but very important questions which I
would like an answer to. However, I am having difficulty in getting
anyone to take me seriously. If you feel you have a contribution to
make please do so.

First of all why is it that, generally speaking, the individuals
selected by the aliens to be examined are usually regarded by their
neighbours and colleagues (before and after their abduction) as right
plonkers?  It may well be that the aliens are interested in forensic
psychiatry, but if that's the case then why give such dickheads
messages for the rest of mankind? Who do the aliens think will believe
them? It seems to me that they would be far better of, should they
want individuals to tell the world, to choose some one the rest of us
would at least listen to.

[snipped for brevity]

The other point which has worried me for some time is the need by
aliens to have lights on the side of their space craft whilst in
flight? I could see the need for having lights on the side whilst
docked to or in the mother ship but not whilst in flight. Revolving
lights at that! Maybe someone forgot to switch them off! That could
happen once and maybe twice but not all the time.

I would be interested in getting a thread going on all of the above
topics. But it seems to me that only the more seasoned  UFO watcher
would have the knowledge and experience with which to bring to bear on
such matters.

This brings to mind something that's always amused me about the whole "alien
visitors/massive conspiracy" scenario.
If there really are technologically advanced aliens visiting Earth and
they're trying to conceal their presence, then they're really, really bad at
it because people are always seeing them.
Alternatively if they're trying to make contact with us then they seriously
suck at that too, because the only people they ever talk to are
zero-credibility freaks. Perhaps these aliens simply aren't as smart as we'd
hoped.
Perhaps this also explains why they're always pancaking their ships into the
New Mexico desert. "Watch this, Billy-Zorg! No hands! Yeehaw - argh!"
