Heart wrenching story...just when I think the human race can't be any more of a detriment to this planet, I get reinspired by something like this.
I married up in SO many ways! I was going through some pics and this was taken the day we picked up our two puppies.
John O. Brennan on UFOs by Tyler Cowen December 16, 2020 at 10:53 am in Current Affairs Philosophy Travel I thought I would give this segment its own post, again here is the audio, video, and transcript of my Conversation with John O. Brennan, head of the CIA for four years under President Obama: BRENNAN: I’ve seen some of those videos from Navy pilots, and I must tell you that they are quite eyebrow-raising when you look at them. You try to ensure that you have as much data as possible in terms of visuals and also different types of maybe technical collection of sensors that you have at the time. Also, I believe, it’s important to reach out into other environments and find out, were there any type of weather phenomena at that time that might have, in fact, created the appearance of the phenomenon that you’re looking at? Were there some things that were happening on the ground, or other types of phenomena that could help explain what seems to be quite a mystery as far as what is there? I think an important thing for analysts to do is not to go into this type of challenge either discounting certain types of possibilities or believing in advance that it is likely X, Y, or Z. You really have to approach it with an open mind, but get as much data as possible and get as much expertise as possible brought to bear. COWEN: At the end of all that sifting and interpreting, what do you think is the most likely hypothesis? BRENNAN: [laughs] I don’t know. When people talk about it, is there other life besides what’s in the States, in the world, the globe? Life is defined in many different ways. I think it’s a bit presumptuous and arrogant for us to believe that there’s no other form of life anywhere in the entire universe. What that might be is subject to a lot of different views. But I think some of the phenomena we’re going to be seeing continues to be unexplained and might, in fact, be some type of phenomenon that is the result of something that we don’t yet understand and that could involve some type of activity that some might say constitutes a different form of life. The major reason I take UFO reports seriously is simply the “gradient” of other people who take them seriously — the people with the very highest security clearances! It is not just Brennan and Harry Reid, there are others too, namely people with the very highest level of security clearance who believe these issues deserve further investigation, and are not just weather phenomena, instrument mistakes, weather balloons, etc. https://marginalrevolution.com/marginalrevolution/2020/12/john-o-brennan-on-ufos.html
Sorry, but @Lanny has already done calculations on the back of an envelope. No possible way, case closed.
Hey, I don't think it's fair to characterize my opinion as some sort of tyrannical law. I explained how I came to my conclusion now the rest of you can treat your opinion however you want but please leave me out of it. I haven't denigrated your conclusion nor have I told you that you have to believe me, so I'll leave that to you.
