We can fight a little with MUFON Illinois director Sam
Maranto, but let me tell you this: he is not the “armchair UFO-EXO charlatan
and fantasist”
In the article about Sam Maranto published by the Kate Valentine
UFO Show we read:
“Midnight
will find Maranto at his computer, frowning in concentration and tapping away,
until he is satisfied with his conclusions. Only then will he look up from his
task, grab the nearest phone and call a colleague with the news.”
Maranto's heart skips a beat every time the
phone rings. And why not? That next call, might just be the one. And when he
gets a call, Maranto hotfoots it right over to the scene. He wants to be there
when it happens.
"There are approximately 70,000
reported UFO sightings every year, and that's something like 192 per day,"
Maranto said. "Even if only a handful are authentic, there is still a
substantial case for the existence of UFOs.”
Sam is honest and works in the field like we did for
decades. We knows well that feeling of frustration each time that he learns
about balloons, planets, satellites, funny clouds, planes, meteorites, man made
artifacts…(you name it.)
He knows that 95 to 98 percent of the so called UFOs are
perfectly identifiable phenomena. No ETs, no cosmic visitors, He knows that his
witnesses are just bored people wanting to see something different.
Day after day Sam Maranto, like a few other true
researchers, comes back to his home with empty hands. There was nothing there,
just simple people wanting to be special, wanting to experience the “supernatural”
which doesn’t exist.
People desperately wanting to believe in “something else”.
Day after day, year after year, decade after decade, while nothing happens. Just
words.
Nothing else, nothing different. No gods, no angels, no
demons, no extraterrestrials but humans, just people like Sam Maranto and Tomas
Scolarici.
