Sure Mike...Please guys, I'm getting rather tired of this kind of
comment...IFOlogists...give me a break!

Why don't you look to the 10 percent we can't explain instead of
keep going on and on about the cases any RESEARCHER has thrown
aside anyway.

But maybe that's why I think there's nothing wrong with terms
like UFO-researcher or ufologist, the only problem is that
everybody can call himself one, regardless wether they have done
some serious lookin' in to the subject or not.
