You can see this crud standing in line at any US grocery store. Why post a Russian version of it here? The US versions are less exciting for some reason?

The interesting thing about this genre (the ooooooh i saw a UFO doing about 60 on the wrong lane ) is that even if, and it's a big if, there was something it would nto be believed. Everyone would scoff at the person telling the story and all credence would be thrown out the window. Even if a UFO came and hovered over your house and teleported some alien dudes who came into your place for supper, the best thing to do would be to just entertain them wish them well and once they flew off go back to what you were doing before (and try to ignore the irritating rectal probe). Telling your friends, neighbors and the press would not be a prudent course of action, unless you are a masochist and enjoy pain and suffering.
Now, i personally believe in UFOs. I just don't believe in Aliens. Let me explain.
Think about it. A UFO is simply a flying craft that cannot be identified. Hence if i saw a plane that was unlike anything i'd ever seen that would fall under UFO.
Perfect example: The B-2B stealth bomber (and to a lesser extent the F-117A stealth fighter). Both planes, especially the B-2, do not look like conventional planes. And for almost 2 decades they were not official. Yet, they flew covertly at night. Now imagine some hombre spotting a B-2 in 1985! He'd think it was an alien craft. Is it? No! But it is definitely a UFO.
Hence UFOs exist .....the only problem is that they are just unidentified but not alien. Humans for some reason tend to attribute mystical qualities to anything they do not comprehend.
However the fact still remains that any UFO sighting is automatically termed as a kook-pot story. And it is great for national security due to the fact anyone seeing the B-2 back then or the alleged Aurora (the supposed replacement to the Sr-71) today will be taken by the public to be a crackpot and hence his story will be effectively negated.
As for lil' green dudes smoking space weed while flying at warp 17? Mmmmmmmm, let them come on Meet the Press and i'll believe in them.

The little creature had no ears, huge slanting catlike eyes occupied the biggest part of its face. ...The skin on the body was gray and with dark spots in brown on the head. No hair, small holes instead of ears. Small flat nose enabled the creature to breath. ...Long fingers had small sharp claws. No genitals revealing creature's sex. ...a complete set of teeth, but too small lower jaw and huge scarlet tongue occupying almost all the mouth ...The creature was lying and did not move most of the time.Damned if it ain't James Carville! What was he doing in Russia?

Reminds me of one story I heard somewhere the F-117A could have existed as early as the early 1970's and even used towards the end of the Vietnam War. I don't put much stock into the story, well, it's close to "tinfoil hat" territory but I'll just stick it in the file of "things that make you go hmmmm" file. B-)
Several months ago, I watched Steven Spielberg's "Taken" on the Sci-Fi Channel, I think it ended kind of dumb though, but I remember when the Army/Air Force guy was running the Area-51 study on the Roswell flying saucer in 1957, I remember once scene had the B-2 flying about along with other prototype black ops aircraft. B-2 in 1957, well, again, hard to believe but for the mini-series as backdrop eye-candy, it was a nice touch. B-)
