There are some people who you can actually see soaking up attention, like a parched plant soaks up water. For Elizondo, there's no such thing as too much attention.Artoo45https://www.blogger.com/profile/14300348322780544335noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8104600450225406597.post-76129084115619531242021-11-12T10:22:50.107-08:002021-11-12T10:22:50.107-08:00I say Very Good, and good riddance!

It's not so long ago his co- author John Burroughs accused him of lying over their book they wrote together. I won't get started on Philip Mantle's relentless campaign re Nick and his credentials either. Yet there he is saint Pope mixed up in the next alien seeking mission. On a positive note let's hope some good comes of all this. Re Elizondo goes and Mellon, time will tell how it all pans out with them.

O dear. At least the recruitment of Mike Shermer may bring a little sanity to the table, though I don't envy his uphill struggle (best bring his bike to meetings)—and actually I'm surprised he agreed to be in such company. At any rate it's clear Avi Loeb is more interested in gaining a place among the ufological luminarati than doing the science he claims to want to do. And that was redundant anyway. Jeez, what a shambles.<br /><br />The Duke of Mendozahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14335501899298333878noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8104600450225406597.post-20896017965795929372021-11-03T00:20:16.157-07:002021-11-03T00:20:16.157-07:00This is all such utter and appalling crap.

Okay, so ufology has always had its shysters, its sincerely deluded and its freaky theorisers; what's worse, in my jaded view, is that so few in the audience for ufology has learned anything from the history of the subject, nor do they seem to want to. I wonder if they actually know the history. Gawping idiots persisting in insisting that the USN videos "prove" an ET presence, is just the most recent & obvious example. Robert Hastings' crazed witterings, which are really getting old now, about UFOs fiddlings with nukes (against all informed evidence) is another. Ah well. So it goes. I think I shall now pour myself a drink. There's a bar open somewhere...<br /><br />Peter BThe Duke of Mendozahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14335501899298333878noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8104600450225406597.post-5076906152076687002021-11-02T17:26:34.117-07:002021-11-02T17:26:34.117-07:00When the news came out that the new Galileo Projec...When the news came out that the new Galileo Project, under Dr. Avi Loeb, would investigate the UFO mystery, I gave it some credibility, simply because the usual Ufoologists, I mean, ufologists, were not listed as part of the project. Surprise, it now seems that Dr. Loeb is not the credible person that I though he was! Luis (or is it Lue?) Elizondo & Mr. Mellon being on the project, will make it like, 'To the Stars', phony, and full of B.S. When anybody says a lot, but never gives out any evidence, or refuses to answers proper questions on the subject, but hides behind an 'oath' the guy is a scammer for sure...red flag people. Also, Luis Elizondo is acting a lot like Frank Kaufman of Roswell fame - he says a lot, but never offers no evidence, or hides behind his oath. What gets me is that people are listening to him! In any other professional field, this guy and others like him, would have been booted out long ago. And one wonders why the outside professional world looks down on the so-called UFO field...it's full of scammers and charlatans.
