There is life on Mars, I saw it on the internet! Therefore it must be true.

Couple of problems here- much of the article in the beginning is about trying to establish the credentials of the guy- affliated with a SAC air force base, REALLY? This makes you a trusted authority? I grew up on a SAC AFB and nothing about that base is connected to UFOs, life on MARS and etc. The base's whole mission was to wait for WW3 send all of the FB111s and KC135s toward Russia, the KC135s would refuel the FB111s halfway there and turn around. The FB111s would drop their "we neither confirm nor deny the presence of nuclear ordinance" on russia and seek to ditch over Turkey or Germany. This was Strategic Air Command. An affiliation with a SAC base is not a credential that establishes your bonafides for UFO craziness.

I could pick apart other sections of this but why bother?
I might not be a dralasite, vrusk or yazirian but I do play one in Star Frontiers!
