People have expectations about aliens and UFOS having to do with technology, magic, science, religion and sometimes a shortcut to our dreams and nightmares

The thing that keeps me coming back is the whole 'believers inside the government who aren't marginalized'. It's such a strange situation (and system of beliefs) that exists but gets almost no attention.
Seriously, it's like weird Lovecraftian fiction starring bureaucrats sequestered in a Pentagon boiler room. The whole saga here is just so bizarre. Who would believe you if you tried to tell people?
Then you have the government seemingly treating this with kid gloves, the NASA BPP people being involved with weird shenanigans, Bigelow owning everything...like SERPO was before my time, but this seems stranger than anything I can remember.
New Fravor interview.

Yeah, I know what you mean, it’s all so interesting.
What also is interesting is the government not knowing anything about this powerful phenomenon.
As of now where all at this level regarding this phenomenon. Remember the words that started the old time Superman show:
It's a Bird...It's a Plane...It's Superman
I’m not saying aliens are superman, I’m using that phrase to illustrate our ignorance
During our research programm for these books one of us - Tom - had an interview with a high ranking member of the military establishment....he suggested - quite strongly- that we take a closer look at Greek mythology.

The most bizarre (to me at least) is the belief the ancient Greek Gods are not only real but they are not just "ancient", they are running things now. I don't want to look down on anyone's belief system but that one threw me for a bit of a loop when I heard it considering how many ex military pilots I've known who would have been ill done by just for reporting they saw a UFO.
