I am totally there with you Blackride. Maybe this guy just needed a publicity stunt of sorts to get some cash.
I am also a very analitic guy and I need evidence confirmed by the international scientific community to actually agree on the idea of intellignt life visiting us.
And about ocnspiracy theories, well, they are inherent to the human being. Even if goverments showed evidence of not being colluded with ET, people would still think about dark deeds all over.
Astronauts, presidents, popes, leaders can say what they want about ET and company visiting us, but until no evidence is show, their ideas lie in a place right between faries and Mickey Mouse.
On the other hand, I want to belive. It would be fantastic to have real contact with ET.
But until then, it's just make belief really.
