Alien Disclosure Eminent!

I don't think the NSA ( or any other organization ) would choose to leak information about alien disclosure via a conspiracy theory board.. it wouldn't really achieve anything useful .. nobody would believe it anyway so it's completely unproductive .. there would be far better ways to gradually leak that kind of information to the masses.

With that said, while it would be nice if this would happen, methinks this is going the same way as those YouTube clips of weather balloons, or the latest Blossom Goodchild prediction.

In other words, bollocks. I've heard 'wolf' cried too many times now to take any real notice anymore.

dude, I love the Giorgio icon! His hair rocks!

Sweet!

Alien disclosure! Its totally going to happen this time...

-goes to make more t-shirts to sell-

Hopefully this time it won't be false...already printed about 4300 shirts from various other (monthly) disclosure by some guys friend assured events...but ya, this time it will be different, this one is the winner, I feel it in my soul.

or wait, that could be gas..

They are not. They are going to inform it on their own website,and on Cnn mainly.

And I also point you to an earlier post of mine on an earlier page explaining why I don't let the grammar issue of making a friend into a plural shouldn't really matter unless it's somebody picking apart how a person speaks and types for the sake of it, almost like if someone were to hear Guido Fawkes say something that sounded a little odd and then saying "A-ha! That man is a terrorist!" even before the Gunpowder Plot happened.

Ok, so my comparison was weak and stupid, I admit that. Still though, to argue that calling a friend in the plural is the killer evidence that this thread is hokey is just as stupid.

Hasn't this thread been made already, like 1000 times, and still nothing?

After looking at a few recent threads, I found that 'some' folks here at "Above Top Secret" buy into things too quickly. If you do not mind me asking, can you provide us with some proof?

Even though you may trust your friend, the people here at "Above Top Secret" do not know you personally.

Many of us live by the X-File motto, "Trust No One."

Any type of 'tangible proof' will be helpful.

Thank you.

Firstly, I sincerely doubt you have a friend who works for the NSA. (I could insert an obvious joke here, but I will spare you that.)

Even if you do have such a friend, I am quite certain that they aren't allowed to tell you anything about anything.

Thus already the likelihood of your prediction coming true can be precisely quantified: zero.

If you realised that for yourself, you probably wouldn't waste the time to post a thread containing zero information.

It's odd. As a mathematician, I romanticise about the NSA holding vast stores of shadow mathematics and cryptography (*). You as a ufo lover romanticise about them holding vast stores of secret information about space aliens. The only difference is, I know the NSA does cryptography!

I find this intriguing because if the NSA suddenly released all their secrets tomorrow, it would be meaningless to the average citizen.

A perfect example of this appeared on ATS a while back. It was a exercise sheet from an NSA class on crypto. Instead of solving the exercises, which were about a theoretical alien language (to illustrate how alien civilisations might communicate with each other in the language of mathematics), people on ATS spent all their time arguing about whether the NSA had really intercepted this from outer space! Yet if anyone had bothered solving the exercises, they would realise immediately that this was written on earth!

If the NSA does release something next month, prepare to be bored by it. Really bored. It certainly won't be as interesting as the existence of space aliens.

* In reality the NSA claim in their press releases that they are only a couple of years ahead in crypto these days, so of course my romantic world of shadow mathematics doesn't exist. And it wouldn't be interesting if it did. There's kilometers of unclassified shelving in a good university library that I haven't read. So no need for secret mathematics. If it were declassified, it wouldn't be interesting any more by definition.

I wish the 20 people that flagged this would tell us the details about this imminent disclosure...

...I mean those 20 people must have some sort of details that corroborate the OP's 2nd-hand story of imminent disclosure, or else they would not have flagged something that otherwise seems to be unconfirmed. Would they?

This earlier post you refer to is moot.

The importance of the distinction between one friend versus multiple friends chiefly concerns the convergence I wrote of. That a group of friends who'd known one another since childhood grew up to work at the NSA & have foreknowledge of an UFO/alien disclosure is peculiar. If Common Scarecrow claims this is the case, it casts doubt on his story by default. You may not agree with that reasoning, but it stands evident that I'm not asking to you agree with that reasoning either. In any event, you've more or less arrogated what I'd written by writing "killer evidence" and blah, blah, blah.

Your displeasure is noted. I'll hang it on the wall in front of my toilet & reflect on it everytime I go #2.

I see your 20 flags, and raise you 100 flags of people who believe John the rancher killed an Alien with a Samurai sword.

"They couldn't get into specifics for obvious reasons" . . . .. . . .. what are the obvious reasons?
