'Aliens have been on Earth for a long time and are still here':
Stanford University professor claims there are experts working
on reverse engineering crashed UFOs

Dr. Garry Nolan has been commissioned by the CIA to work on UFOs
before

Nolan told Klokus that possibility was '100 percent' aliens have
been here

The immunologist compared it to early native tribes seeing
new explorers

'I think it's an advanced form of intelligence that using
some kind of intermediaries,' he added.

'It's not that they walk among us wearing a skin suit. You're
going to put something there that I think of as an intelligence
test.'

. . .

Doesn't Stanford also suck Wokie dick ?

Anyway, immunologist ? Someone in an engineering
field would be MUCH more persuasive. He doesn't
even mention any immunological/biochem evidence
for his assertions ...

Came across a little article last week saying
that something like 20% of "academics"/profs
claim to have actually seen UFOs - as opposed
to like 0.1% of the general pop. LSD consumption
must still be really high on campus ...

"Reverse engineering" ? Not his field alas. Also
there seems to have been a pretty steady progression
of sci/tech over the decades - no Giant Leaps like
you'd get from flying saucer parts. Don't even know
if we could UNDERSTAND flying saucer parts well
enough TO reverse-engineer.

This is all mostly a re-run of 1970s UFO/mysticism
TV shows.

Now does more of this drivel mean there are no UFOs
of any kind ? Nope. Even the US military is
finally sharing some pretty interesting stuff.
WW2 pilots often saw "foo fighters" - which pretty
much fit the description of what's being seen
these days. Even medieval texts/drawings show
basically the same things. So, 1000+ years ???

(but they never butt-probed farm-boys)

Thing is, these objects don't seem to DO anything.
They're not an "IQ test" or anything else, just THERE.
They just hover around 'major events' (usually
military campaigns) and document. Maybe we're all
on the "Meet The Stupid Humans" show on planet XYZ ?

My concern is that the "UFOs" are turning into some
kind of new religion - with a thousand rules the
high priests claim the aliens want us to follow
even though they never met one alien. And, of
course, the Infidels must be eradicated ....
