UFO's

99% probably are the government just testing out new planes and stuff.

Who says that Aliens have more intelligence than us? I'm just as smart as anybody on Earth.

"What Planet Are You From" seems to apply. Watch it next time you have a few minutes.

*Misses all the good puns and the joke*

But you arn't an alien. I ment that aliens could be smarter than us.

My point on animal experimentation was that we need many animals to test new drugs and things. We need a large sample to give a good idea of how the drug reacts. Since I think aliens will be different from us, they wouldn't experiment on us like that, they would just like to get samples of humans to study them. If we, say, study chimps, we wouldn't take thousands of them, ten would be enough to get some knowledge about they're anatomy.

I would think that aliens would come here because they are curious about us, not that we are more intelligent. If they got here, I would assume they are more intelligent than us.

From what I remember from chemistry, only carbon and silicon lifeforms are reasonable, as only those elements can form long chains. Water is nearly certainly needed for life. But other than that, we have no clue what they would look like. Do you really think that the so called grey aliens would really look so much like us? Seems a bit fishy to me.....

If you believe in them no argument is necessary.
If you do not believe in them no argument will change your mind.

You should change your mind in view of the evidence, not what your feelings are. I know thats not easy in practive, but its the scientific way.

I'm pretty sure there's ones as dumb as us *snicker*, ones smarter than us, and ones even dumber than us.

Well it was either him or idiot Gore. As it was the country was split down the middle. Just sad how many Americans didn't even understand our own election process and were so shocked. "Electoral College? What's that? You mean I don't vote dirtectly for the president?" No - read the Constitution.

This is off subject - but I like Colin Powell and Condoleeza Rice. I don't trust Ashcroft that much though - if at all. Wish Colin Powell or Condoleeza Rice would run for President.

Are u saying you picked the lesser of the two idiots? Except instead of just going for a dull safe idiot u picked a hick. This is another example of where you have much power localised instead of nationally.

[BeardofPants]

This is the exact reason why New Zealand no longer uses FPP (First Past the Post) any more. Now we run a system, where it is the majority of votes that passes legislation, instead of the two big parties competing. This way minor parties get a chance to get a say, and the big party with the big stick is held accountable by the smaller parties.

Not that that has any thing to do with UFOs... unless you count Helen Clarkes insatiable urge to commit art forgery... it must have been aliens!

Well this thread is about UFOs and maybe if you were really interested in why our country is more localised - maybe you should read about American History. Especially about the war where we kicked your country out. The rest of the world really should worry about their internal issues and let us worry about our political system. How we vote for our president or whether he favor state rights over a beaurocratic federal government is our business, If you want a say in it then become an American citizen. I personally can care less how you elect your prime Minister or house of Commons. Maybe you should do away with the antiquated House of Lords.

Oh and Al Gore isn't a hick? I suppose you don't know what state he comes from then. My sister lives in his state - which he didn't even win (Tennessee in case you don't know - which I'm sure you don't and if you do - then you don't know where it is).

i got my fight started . I take great intrest in the affirs of other countries im like my mum im kinda nosey but i couldnt care less what my family did with there day.

so what percentage of the worlds elected officials say compared to cabbies do you think are aliens or not quite of this world.

Well i was calling Bush a hick but if Al Gore is indeed from tennersea we have 2 hicks. I bet u all wish you had the preseident from the west wing.

I thought you'd like the fact that you got your wish. I hate Martin Sheen - so no - I do not wish that he was our president. I stated my choices above - although in this past election I wanted John McCain (but he didn't win the republican nomenation). I was also looking at voting libertarian.

Concerning percentage of the world's elected officials versus cabbies that are aliens - that's a hard question - you'd have to see the taxi drivers in NY to understand why.

And like you Sween - I'm interested in other countries too. I just don't think i should critisize them on their internal affairs. I had seen the House of Lords in action - I wish I had another day in London - I might have seen the House of Commons too.

[Sween]

the house of lords is well funny you can play the game of whos slipping into real sleep. u see them all restiung there eyes and all of a sunnden one will pop up trying not to sleep.

you know we still aint got rid of our heridertay peers. i bet they are aliens 2

Well most of them look like it. I think it's all that inbreeding among royalty.
