Don't know if you happened to catch the recent Nightline episode on Morgellons Disease- incredible stuff! People have these weird, itchy fibers growing inside their bodies and scientists, doctors and "experts" all over the place simply dismiss them as nuts. It's one thing to conduct the necessary scientific research and investigation- it's a whole nother to summarily dismiss these people as complete whackos without so much as seeing them! A biologist who examined her son and found fibers growing underneath his lip that actually glowed under fluorescent light was prescribed psychiatric treatment by their doctor. Even the FBI couldn't make hide nor hair of these fibers, despite their massive database- all they could say was that it wasn't "natural," or commercially made- so much for pulling it out of your living room sofa, or your pet goat.It seems that some scientists and medical personnel are finally starting to approach this seriously- one hopes. And I sure as hell can't help but make the obvious parallel as to how astronauts, military officers, aviation personnel, etc. are also dismissed offhand as misguided or worse when it comes to UFO reports- when all they ask is for serious scientific investigation as well...
