Do Hoaxers See UFOs?

Monday February 5, 2007
Here's a nice little blog you might want to check out. Written by Joseph Capp, and titled, Do Hoaxers See UFOs?, it has some very well thought out ideas on how different groups of folks see the UFO mystery. Joseph talks about how we, the true UFO seekers, view the hoaxers with disdain. How true that is. I have, myself, through the years, probably published some photographs sent to me that were hoaxed. Well, if I did I didn't know about it, and certainly didn't promote a hoax on purpose.

Actually, he is talking about against those who set out to hoax just for fun, or to get attention, or to cause confusion to those who investigate UFOs. I totally agree with Mr. Capp on this-there is nothing worse for us. He also addresses crop circle makers, and rightfully so. Even in the film, "Taken, " the main character, who was an Air Force investigator was hoaxed by a circle maker. Do these guys give the UFO community a bad name? I think you would agree with me that the answer is yes. Go over and read all of Mr. Capp's article, and I think you will enjoy it.

I’m pro-hoax. It exposes that unidentified flying objects are just that, unidentified.
