Dear Jim: Regarding Most Recent Rants.

I've always found your Daily Rants interesting, but the past two so much more so that I decided to reply. Why? Because you mentioned a few things I believe to be true, so perhaps I can add some slight bit of context.

First, the easy one. Yes, US Black Projects have been quite fruitful, to the point that technology is AT LEAST 100 years ahead of what we're allowed to see. Maybe more like 500 years. Remember, you had John Lear saying in the 1990s that we were already capable of "Taking ET home", anywhere in the universe. I have no reason to doubt him. I explain it this way:

The Wright Brothers first flew when? 1903? By WWI we had highly maneuverable planes capable of dogfights. By the 20s we had craft that could cross the oceans, and by WWII, twin engine bombers. Post-WWII, commercial jets came in the late 50s, flying us anywhere we wanted to go. Safely. And on October 4, 1957, the USSR launched Sputnik, signaling the dawn of the space program. Finally, we reached the moon, allegedly, for the first time in 1969. So in 66 years, we had come from not getting off the ground with a motorized vehicle to landing on the moon. Think about that! THAT is the natural evolution of aero-science. And remember, no computers for the most part. Even the giant computer banks we did have in the 60s could all be out-performed by any decent laptop today.

Which brings us to: Where is the natural evolution of aero-science today? Aside from some computerized bells and whistles which don't really upgrade capabilities or speed much, we're still in the 70s! 56 years later!!! All that progress in 66 years, none really in 56 years.

So what's missing? The fact that we ARE in space, and moving about with the speed and ease (or close to it) of non-human intelligences from other planets. It's only logical! There's way more I could dive into deeply, but the point is made.

My feeling is that yes, 80-90% of UFOs these days are ours. Most certainly, the triangular ones with the three domes underneath are ours. Why do I say this? Because the shape isn't aerodynamic! Wouldn't advanced NHIs also advance to perfect aerodynamic shapes? Like saucers? Like no angles? Of course they would. And they'd advance to a biologic control system, as in "You think it, the craft does it". This is one area I believe we're still working on and haven't perfected yet, but it's not far away.

To sum up, I believe any triangular craft is ours, as are any other craft not shaped smoothly, and we've already explored much of the universe. To paraphrase Johnny Cash, "We've been everywhere, man!".

The other thing I believe is in the 80-20 (or 85-15) rule. Which says that there will always be 15-20% doers. Leaders. Unbound thinkers. And of course, 80-85% followers. Sheep. The corollary to that rule is that no matter how much evidence a 20%-er shows to an 80%-er, no matter how well documented scientifically or logically, those 80%-ers will - not- change their thinking. A 20%-er can't do it. It's a waste of time.

But this rule applies everywhere, so it's deeply ingrained at, I believe, a DNA level. Let's look at the American Revolution. At most, 5% of the population actually took up arms - probably more like 3%. But 15% participated, the other 12% in support roles. Hiding the troops, supplying them, providing food and drink, caring for the wounded, editorializing locally, simply spreading the word! Think of that. Only 15% were responsible for the formation f the United States of America.

Same applies to politics. We routinely hear these days that this or that is "An 80-20 issue". That's no coincidence. Example: despite 80% of we the people supporting removing illegal immigrants with no ifs ands or buts, so far at least, the 20% have been able to, if not stop it from happening, at least to slow it down.

All you have to do is watch the news. Watch your friends, Watch your "leaders" Heck, Read your history! Examples abound, just waiting for you to find them!

Thanks for the opportunity to counter-rant Jim. I hope this helps.
