As I said , in the context of SETI, we are most interested in :"habitable" planets that can support intelligent life on a level that rivals human intelligence. I posit that the requirements for such life to start and evolve may consist of many finely tuned parameters for which there are few (if any) known candidate planets. Time will tell --I would be pleased to be found wrong in my suppositions.

No candidates yet...more so because I think our existence in the universe was overestimated. We are only now beginning to realize just how big space is. It is only a matter of time before we come across such an intelligent species. It may take time, but someday it's bound to happen. I just think we nee to think more out of the box if we are even going to consider bacterial life on planets/moons. Take Saturn's moon Enceladus for example. There could be a whole treasure trove of life there. And it would likely be drastically different than what we have or had on earth.

LONDON - Men in black, Mork and Mindy, shining lights in the sky and more than 20 years of other alien visitations and bizarre sightings recorded in Britain's own "X-Files" were made available online to the public on Thursday.

The nearly 9,000 pages of UFO-related documents, drawings, letters and parliamentary questions recorded by Britain's Ministry of Defence (MoD) from 1985 to 2007 are the eighth batch of UFO files to be released to the National Archives.

Can you think of any logical reasons why aliens need to visit us on a regular
basis?...if any of these visitations were actually genuinely true.

They can't buy Marmite on their home planet.

Umm?....I never thought about that!

• In 1986, a Japan Airlines pilot saw what he described as an unidentified flying object over Alaska closely tailing his 747. He made an evasive move. His career was thrown into turmoil, but he never recanted what he claimed he saw.

• In 1987, a Federal Aviation Administration executive says the CIA warned him not to talk about UFOs because the public would panic.

• In 1997, former Arizona Gov. Fife Symington mocked thousands of people who said they saw mysterious lights over Phoenix, calling out a staffer dressed in a cheesy ET costume at a press conference. Ten years later, he apologized for lying to the media and the public.

What these events have in common is that they are unveiled on a new two-hour History Channel special, "Secret Access: UFOs On The Record," that features in-depth accounts from people who have been willing to risk their jobs and reputations to speak out about their remarkable experiences with UFOs.

Millions of people see man made things they can't identify. About 95% of the people are able to describe what they saw with enough detail that someone else can identify it. The other 5% are just plain bad witnesses. And keep that in mind next time you are on jury duty and the witness points and says he did it.

when i see one, will let everyone know.

What's really galling is to read on everything you buy "Hecho in Chine" a real double whammy as far as I am concerned !!

Yeah and we thought China was dangerous when Mao was in charge.
