Mmm... I did realised my terrible mistake right after posting....
Sorry, I am suffering from simple anthropomorphism... nearing 50, I imagine every one else does too!
At any rate, the article is interesting, me think....

If the spiritual leader of the Tibetan people had been born in Somerset, would he be the Dalai Farmer?

He turned out to be a bit of a jerk, eh?

A claim of aliens living among us is simply conjecture and speculation based on hearsay and opinion. To the person making the statement, I say prove it with tangible and irrefutable evidence, or STFU. Simple as that. I'm willing to believe, but I need to see proof.

Uptick for being a fellow leftie.
When I was growin' up, I was the smartest kid I knew. Maybe that was just because I didn't know that many kids. All I know is now I feel the opposite.

Relativism and denying the evidence of your own senses is being a lefty?
If so, it explains a lot. I find it amusing that people who have to deal with hard reality when it comes to software can spout such drivel.

Huh? I was just referring to his signature.
We're both left handed.

My mistake. I assumed you upvoted for deeper reasons.

Well, in fairness I did find the reply slightly humorous too.
For my part I think it's fair to presume aliens are not among us absent evidence, but it's not entirely reasonable to make a claim that they do not exist among us absent evidence. It's overplaying one's hand. One might say it's unlikely, of course.

Proving a negative (outside a formal realm like mathematics) is impossible, which is why it's up to someone who asserts something to offer evidence. Otherwise you get things like, "The world is run by shape-shifting Reptilians." And I'm surprised you bothered to deny being the Reptilian Queen, because everyone knows it's Queen Elizabeth.

Well, it's impossible perhaps and yet just the same, all I'm saying is that asserting something does not exist is also a claim and would require evidence. That it's a difficult or impossible claim to support really doesn't change that, as far as I'm concerned.
But that's why I try to avoid saying things like "aliens don't exist" or even "there are no gods" - regardless of likelihood. Life is one of the most unlikely events we know about, and yet here we are.
Now, that doesn't mean I operate on the assumption that those things do exist, but I wouldn't say that they don't definitively, if that makes sense.
And queen elizabeth is a cutout.
