I don't think the "alien" theory of Roswell New Mexico would have gained so much traction if the government hadn't been so ham-handed in suppressing the story, thereby increasing suspicion. On the other hand, I imagine the government was laughing their ass off in knowing that so many foreign countries, (as well as Americans) believed that we just MIGHT have advanced alien technologies that they couldn't be sure we didn't have.

@@tobyarmbrust8260 Maybe it's because obesity is an epidemic in America? And carbs appear everywhere and in everything. If you stop eating so many carbs, then insulin won't have to pack it away in the liver. Then the opposite hormone, glucagon, can work to bring your stored carbs into the bloodstream to keep up with carbs necessary to feed the brain. When sugar is not available so much, the body turns to other stored energy: fat. When fat is metabolized, it produces more molecules of ATP than carbs do. When you rest and digest, you are using more fat. When exercising, more energy copy for g.

"Maximum security exists concerning the subject of UFOs.” CIA Director, Allen Dulles, 1955. “Behind the scenes, high-ranking Air Force officers are soberly concerned about UFOs. But through official secrecy and ridicule, many citizens are led to believe that unknown flying objects are nonsense.” Former CIA Director, Roscoe Hillenkoetter, public statement, 1960. “We’ll know our disinformation program is complete when everything the American public believes is false” -William Casey, CIA director, 1981 “Yes, there have been ET visitations. There have been crashed craft. There have been material and bodies recovered. There has been a certain amount of reverse engineering that has allowed some of these craft, or some components, to be duplicated. And there is some group of people that may or may not be associated with government at this point that have this knowledge. They have been attempting to conceal this knowledge. People in high level government have very little, if any, valid information about this. It has been the subject of disinformation in order to deflect attention and create confusion so the truth doesn’t come out. ” ― Edgar D.

On a side note - Steven Spielberg have produced a great mini series called "Taken" depicting two families pitched in opposition to eachother trying through five decades and four generations to find out exactly what happened. It's a little on the rosy-red side of narration style (as is a lot of mr. Spielberg's work) but it's still pretty good for watching while waiting for new year's to come around.

Those balloons you mentioned had a very specific purpose. I belonged to the same organization you speak of. It was still highly classified well above top secret in the 1970's. Ultimately we were directly credited with preventing WW3. Some of those later balloon flights were a diversion, to keep public attention, away from the monitoring site we were deploying all over the word. Along with there identical Soviet Sites and the back channels we used to keep tensions from getting out of control. We all bought the equipment from TI.

@Dog boy Structural rigid dirigibles can be made into approximate disc shapes to reduce lateral wind resistance from all directions while still achieving the necessary displacement volume. Decades ago, the Canadian Government looked into using zeppelins for routine high arctic supply flights and one of the potential winners was essentially a disc because is would resist sheer winds pushing it off course.

The photos with the tin foil was a set up, one of the photos had a letter in the guys hand, using computers we can read some of it. It basically ordering him to lie and spout the wether balloon nonsense. The actual material recovered was not a foil. It felt abit like mylar but it was thicker and could not be creaced, it was more like a metal, when crushed it would reform perfectly. It looked nothing like the mess in the photo. But that's just conspiracy nonsense to Simon so we wont mention that or the credibility of the wisnessed or the fact they had indefinite gag orders put on them. Seem abit extreme for an obsolete spy balloon.

Magic Spoon tastes better the more you eat. The consistency is slightly off from normal sugary deliciousness. Anyone who has had a variety of cereals from Weetabix to granola to bran to Cinnamon Toast Crunch (texture varieties) will easily dig it. If you have younger children that occasionally eat cereal before school, the cost is worth it, especially if they are already used to skim/1% milk or nut juice (like almond "milk"). If you, and/or they, eat cereal daily, the second mortgage on your house may not be worth it.

I asked my elementry school chess instructor about aliens. He was a german rocket scientist whom was brought here to Huntsville, Alabama for NASA. I was in 5th or 6th grade maybe 40 years ago or so. He told me that Roswell was a Japanese balloon that had finally made it over the pacific. It had stayed up in the upper atmosphere and slowly made its way over. The 3 bodies they said were aliens were actually Japanese children whom had died and had decomposed somewhat and had high altitude conditions of damage to their bodies. Apparently the Japanese had a plan to bomb the US during WW2 by balloons across the pacific. I don't know if this is true but he definitely thought it was true. He said the US didn't want to scare the country of this during WW2 that they knew of this and that later after WW2 when this happened they just covered it up still.

I'm simply being logical, I'm not saying it's aliens, I don't know what it is. I'm also fairly unsure the technology required to do the things that were seen and recorded would be currently possible, but that's a guess, obviously, because nobody really knows for sure. That's you too, nobody knows for sure. You can play occams razor all you want, that's not a solution to the problem, many questions remain. You're now also arguing against the US military, if you're determined to maintain your stance that there's a reasonable explanation, that is. There's little to support your argument, again, aside from referring to occams razor, so yeah.
