11.13.7
As I begin writing this now, it is early morning Nov 8th. Until
yesterday, the Larry King UFO Show was scheduled for tonight, but for
some reason it has been bumped to Friday. That doesn't allow me as
much time to write about it as I would like. Anyhow, I will get to
what went on with that after it has aired and later in this GM.
Right now, I am listening to Noory's Wednesday night UFO Special. I
think Noory is trying to scoop Larry King because rumor has it that
many of these guests will also be on Larry King on Friday night. By
the time they get done doing all these show I am wondering what will
be left to say at that press conference on the 12th. I do like Leslie
Kean though, she is pretty awesome winning a case against NASA for
information on Kecksburg.
I don't know what to expect from the Larry King Show, but I have a
feeling it will end up being the same stuff I have been hearing on c2c
and elsewhere all week. I don't expect any real surprises and the
best I can hope for is that Michael Shermer will not be one of the
guests.
Alrighty, I watched Larry King and I was somewhat pleasantly
surprised. The super skeptic was not Shermer and although there was
one, he didn't show up until the second half of the show.
Other than the skeptic I could have done without Shirley MacLaine. I
have nothing against Shirley, but there are a lot of people far more
knowledgeable about UFOs than she is. She was invited merely because
she is famous and for the most part she didn't really fit in with the
show theme or the other guests.
It was a lot like a replay of c2c last Wednesday, minus Leslie Kean.
Although I partly gauged it by my SO, Britton. I often do that because I
pretty much know everything that is ever talked about on any UFO show,
so it is hard for me to judge whether it was a good show or not. That
was especially true with this show as it was mostly about the
Rendlesham Forest incidents, my very favorite UFO case. It isn't fair
to judge by my own standards because I am sure 99% of people know next
to nothing about UFOs. Britton really liked it though. He found it
convincing and found the skeptic as annoying as I did. So I think the
show must have been effective in getting the point across that there
really is something out there, or up there.
Now onto the skeptic, James McGaha. I had never heard of McGaha
before, but then again I really pay almost no attention to the super
skeptics. It is one thing to tell a person who just saw lights in the
sky that he may have been seeing a lighthouse in the distance (really
that doesn't even make sense if the lights are moving, but ya know
what I mean). But to tell a military witness, who walked around an object
taking notes for 45 minutes and even touched the object before it shot
up into the sky, that they were somehow mistaken about what they saw
and what happened is completely idiotic and really takes a lot of
fucking nerve.
It seemed that even Larry King found McGaha ridiculous.
He didn't even have a good reason for why this person was mistaken
about what went on in those 45 minutes. I think the thing I hate
about skeptics (really this guy was more of a debunker) is that
I can at least admit that many UFO events may have
explanations that have absolutely nothing to do with ET's or anything
paranormal, but they will not even give a slight possibility of chance
that there is something that doesn't fit into the realm of what we
know. In a sense, they are saying the human mind now knows everything,
there is nothing new to learn. It is really a pathetic attitude to
have.
I think I have watched every UFO related show that Larry King has
ever done and I would say this was probably the best one. To those
who pay close attention to the subject of UFOs, it is stuff we have
heard before, but to everyone else I think it is probably really
fascinating. For those who missed it, you can find a transcript at
CNN.com and also there is video posted various places on the web that
you can find with a quick google.
Now I wait to see if anything comes from the press conference on
Monday. If anything does come from that you will probably hear all
about it from me in next weeks GM.
