I agree. I just don't agree with fighting stupidity with stupidity.

I don't know if this is a good example, seeing as Sept 11 was planned and
timed for maximum exposure.

When I was 17, I saw something that to this day remains unidentified. Since
then (and not because of it) I have spent literally hundreds of hours
looking at the night sky because of my interests in astronomy and have not
seen anything like it. Nor over the years, have I uncovered any logical
explanation for what it might have been. And even though I was then an avid
photographer then, I did not get a photo of it.
To me, whatever it was remains unidentified and I do not fall into any of
the general categories being passed around here enabling my sighting to be
passed off as the ravings of an uneducated hick in the sticks. I saw
something and it was then and remains unidentified. As for the topic of UFOs
in general my mind remains open.
