Feeding On Ignorance

The less you know, the more you get screwed.  Let's take the case of UFO's.

Q: The godmother of your daughter, Shirley MacLaine, writes in her new book that you sighted a U.F.O. over her home in Washington state, that you found the encounter extremely moving, that it was a “triangular craft, silent and hovering,” that you “felt a connection to your heart and heard directions in your mind.” Now, did you see a U.F.O.?
A: I did. And the rest of the account—I didn’t—it was an unidentified flying object, O.K.? It’s, like—it’s unidentified.

I mean, so what?!?  Hillary saw something in the air and didn't know what it was.  I see something...it's flying...and I don't know what it is!  It's a UFO - Unidentified Flying Object.  Not a spaceship.  But the public automatically hears UFO and equates it with an alien spacecraft from another world with little green men.

If the general public didn't have this notion of UFO's being alien spacecrafts then this would of never hit print.
