Seems like interest in UFOs started to fall off a few years ago -- about the time Kennedy Assassination theories began to fade. Doubtless strange and unexpected things happen in the world, but over fifty years of UFO theories sort of wore out the interest. Theories of dark forces and mysterious conspiracies thrive in the darkness, but put them front and center on the Internet or TV's X Files, and the interest dies out. For a little while, there's intense interest, then it just becomes yesterday's thing (I've been watching Taken, and while the first few episodes were interesting, it all seems like an fad that's long since passed its heyday). Maybe the conspiracy fans have moved on to something else...

Which doesn't change the fact that from 200 to 500 intelligent American Internetters see unexplainable UFO's every month, and both know about, and post to, nuforc.org...and tell about what they saw and where and when.

The actual number of sightings must be HUGE.

Interesting hypothesis.

Doesn't come close to matching the evidence I've had to deal with.
