First off let me say that I do believe in Extra-Terrestrial life, it would be foolish not to. Now do I believe there are UFO's hovering around some Podunk town in Texas? No. Do I believe that small towns will do anything to get tourist dollars flowing? Yes I do. And believe me small towns across the world would kill to become the next Roswell.
One thing I always notice about UFO people is that whatever they are looking at in the sky is considered a UFO first and rational explanation is left to the skeptics. Also you will notice that there is always one among them that has seen more than one UFO in their life. Yeah, that sounds like an impartial observer. I wonder what they think when they visit the airport.
I love when they explain that the UFO made no sound. Hell, I've seen 747's so high up they make no sound either. And what about Mylar balloons? They fly high, reflect the sun, can hover in place or move quickly depending upon air currents and when they pop it looks like the UFO just disappeared...oh but those explanations don't bring the New Agers and UFOlogists into town to buy dream catchers and to sit under "pyramids". There is no money to be had in rational explanations.
And why a small town in Texas? Why not visit something a little interesting to a visiting species like a military base or even a big city? UFO's visiting a county with more cows than people does not make any sense - unless of course the Aliens are bovine...
