In reply to the discussion: Have you ever seen a UFO? [View all]hunter
(38,349 posts)16. Yes, several times.
One of them was a F-117 Nighthawk I saw in the early 'eighties while I was out running on one of my cross country desert adventures, just before dawn.
Hot dogging pilot.
I figured out what I'd seen a few years later, and met one of the guys who'd built substantial parts of it at the only high school reunion I've ever attended.
The real aliens I've met don't need UFOs.
They just be or be not in the human perceptible universe.
No need of space ships.

LOL ! I was there! Seriously. In those days, UFO seemed to hit Chicago every month.
