Hi Larry Hi all
One could venture that the reason for this that most people are
to "involved" in their normal everyday lives during the day to
notice anything unusual going on around them, thus at night they
have less to distract them so they are more likely to notice
other more extraneous things.
This hypothesis could be bourne out in part by:
1) some night-time sightings were barely visible "lights".
2) some of the daylight sightings were the more "unusual" ufo's.
But of course we would need more data on this and a more
intensive study on it.
