If an alien race ever did try to contact us, I think that the movies portrayal of what the military might do is probably closer to the truth than I'd like to imagine. I'd like to believe that there is other life out there, but to tell you the truth, I'm more Scully than Mulder. I'd have to see/hear/taste/feel it to know that it was true. This reminds of a time I saw something that might have been an UFO back when I was a kid. I was out at night with my Boy Scout troop, and we were doing a night hike, when we noticed a fast moving light in the sky. We all thought it was a satellite, but as it approached the horizon, it did a 90 degree turn in a split second. There was no gradual turn. Even now that I live in Florida and there's all of those sightings in the panhandle portion of the state, that's the only time I've seen a UFO. But I'd love to see one again.
