The sad part about these fanatics is that even after you prove that it was a hoax, they will still believe that it was real. Case in point, big foot. The guy who made the origial sighting and movie of big foot, came clean and proved it was all a hoax yet we still have one or two absolute dumbass fanatics saying they have seen big foot and that the legend is true. What legend? It was a hoax you morons! It was fricking joke, and I laugh at how dumb asses who still try and make it like it was not They really are dumb. To be mean, I will add that they are fools who bought into a lie and are to stubern to admit they have been had so they opt to look like morons to save face.

Remember the contaminated Pepsi or coke cans that had needles in them? Remember how all of these people came out and said they had found cans with needles and were all on the news? And then it turned out it was only one can done up by a sick person and the rest were copy cats with lots and lots of egg on their faces.

Tall tale tellers, liers, and just plane uninformed people repeating some hald baked story they once heard make me sick. I want proof, facts, not "I saw bigfoot and an alien UFO" but I hae no proof. Tis better to keep ones mouth shut and avoid the ridicule then open it and be ridiculed.

Thing is with alien visitors is that it requires uncanny good luck on the alien's part. How would they know to pick our little dirtball over the potentially thousands of other planets? You could claim that we've been emitting radio and such, but that travels at the speed of light. The expanses of space being quite, well, tremendously huge, makes it even more improbable. Again, the amount of distance between us and any other sentient life would work against them. They would have to travel for hundreds of years depending on their speed (I assume that the speed of light cannot be broken). I think we are going to be alone for a while.
