Among the expected and usual, is this comment from "kittynh" (who likes to play UFO researcher; explore the history, if you have the inclination) on Travis Walton:
TRAVIS WALTON is still raking in money on the UFO thing?Yeah, he and all other UFO researchers and witnesses are rolling in the dough, as we all know. That's how we can afford our secret underground tin foil encased villa in the Mediterranean.
"Gord in Toronto" reassures that:
The UFO folks are "Mostly harmless"* and it's not likely that you'll be inducted into any cult.
Of course there were a few members who posted this infamous link to the Trent UFO sighting (of which the McMinnville UFO conference/fest is in homage to) that rabid skeptoid Robert Sheaffer "debunks" the Trent case. Sheaffer is not only among the most loathsome of skeptics, he's a raging misogynist.
As I posted on UFOMystic a week or so ago, (A Ha! I Knew It; Skeptics Infiltrate McMinnville UFO Fest) the skeptics do intentionally infiltrate the McMinnville UFO conference, as no doubt they do all over the country at various UFO conferences. I hadn't heard any skeptic questions asked during the Q don't know.
