"Thx Bringbacksemi. I have seen a little of the Grusch case. Fair point had not all military-industrial complexes may see a point in disclosure. There is a sci fi novel on the list to read that has that kind of plot line in it - Three Body Problem?"
"Poupou, why is testimony about seeing an alien riding a dragon in the park on par with testimony about seeing a dog in the park? I cannot see any good argument for treating each with the same scepticism. The former is testimony about a departure…"
"Poupou, Sagan was just adapting David Hume's argument against miracles. Hume advised exercising suspicion about any claim that violates every material experience you have ever had. But that's insufficient as we routinely discover new things. So he…"
"One day we will probably pick up a signal from aliens and we spend 20 years decoding it and finally a translation is achieved and it says "don't do X". We then realize that civilization wiped itself out doing X and we have been doing X for ages.…"

"Strange Eel, I thought this blog would be totally ignored, but maybe asking existential questions breeds better discussions than more earthly political questions?!"
