Parasociology...Thank you Glenda for your comments.<br /><br />Parasociology is obviously not in the world of the exact sciences, and it is still in its infancy. I think what is to be kept in mind is that in many sightings people make the assumption that they are dealing with "aliens" and "spaceships" while the witnesses have no evidence for it. it is only an interpretation. They tend to make such an assumption because they ask: what else could it be but aliens in spaceship? Well, it could be many other things. But to be able to make such an assumption, this very idea that we could, in theory, be visited by extra-terrestrial needs to exist in the first place. That's why people who saw airships in 1897-98 assumed these were man-made ballons. In any event, I think it is the core message that Spencer wanted to send.<br /><br />EricEric Ouellethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01985467572506352039noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2911986427253894754.post-91705437948706198932009-05-05T11:07:00.000-04:002009-05-05T11:07:00.000-04:00Hello again Eric, I have just skimmemed this arti...Hello again Eric, I have just skimmemed this article for the second time.... What I am still confused about my own sighting as a young child when sci fi was limited to me. I think the show Lost in space and Star track were aired during that time frame. What is still puzzeling me is that I did not see the treckey version or a three or four legged saucer... What I did see was something that was extremeley rare for the time frame invoved.Yes simular sightings of large triangular things in the sky have been reported quite a few years later and yes there have been variations that differ to mine. Heck my mothers recolection of the account varies from what I remember... All I know I was young and it scared the crap out of me.... and I am still driven to try to find an explaination to what I saw... I know good luck right! oh well if my comments help your studies i will continue to do so.... Glenda...Glendahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09361838048886919104noreply@blogger.com
