Common sense, reason and logic tells you that this information they are going to release is important to only a very small, minor segment of the population (scientist, astronomers, nerds) and concerns something that is not very important.

Perhaps I'm not paying attention, but I don't believe that there is a member posting in this thread named Common sense. It's rude to address him in such a manner if he isn't posting.

So any speculation concerning this release being something huge is born from ignorance of how things work and the inability to use common sense.

So if NASA is ever to release something huge are they going to throw a ticker tape parade? Did Metallica headline the Discovery of the First Extrasolar Planets Metalfest at Madison Square Garden? Did Diana Ross throw a Space Shuttle Bash at Studio 54 on its madien flight? And who can forget when Neil Armstrong sang with the Beatles?

As far as the guy who said something to the effect of "why wait, can't they release it now if its so important?" That statment is too born of ignorance concerning the scientific and media community...

I'm sorry, do you mean that QUESTION? Asking questions is how we deny ignorance

...and if you settle down, think for a moment, it will be clear to you why they do it in this manner.

A simple, "I don't really know," would've sufficed.

If I need to explain further, plain and simple, your a reason the UFO community is looked upon as outcast weirdos who will believe anything and see a conspiracy in everything. You guys propagate this stereotype with reckless abandon, and ruin the only hope of actually finding out more because you play into the hand that feeds so to speak.

Sorry to be so blunt, but its reality. Continue to scream about things of which you have no clue, while making reckless guesses based on your ignorance, and the only thing you do is help to ensure that this subject remains fodder for casual humor.

Your vindictive tone isn't going to help. I'd go as far as to speculate that although you "seem" to care about the light in which the public views this subject, your actual purpose here is to insight rebellion against the skeptical which will, in turn, encourage the kind of rampant stupidity that can only further bury this subject in ridicule.

Also, I know that when I'm pointing fingers I like to keep my grammar as clean as possible. There's nothing worse than trying to sound like a PhD and coming across like an 8th grader.

And finally, when I'm feeling like a cranky ass I often like to get off of the computer, get some fresh air, and have some fun.

So that's my advice to all of the crankypusses on this board. Then you can come back and scold all of us crazies a little bit more humanely.
