Sam Maranto is NOT an "armchair UFO fantasist"


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.
