You know it's easier to make up stories about UFOs than it is to counter the stories that come out right?
Makes you put into question just who the "agents" really are.
Not implying against anyone specific... Just food for thought.

Well I don't believe that there is something like a disinformation agent, so I see them as skeptics. So one needs to ask the question of what is the difference in a believer and a skeptic?
The answer is how much evidence, or lack of, does it take to believe?

Oh you don't do you, well I most certainly do and believe most skeptics fall into that category myself and a host of others as well.
The vast majority of people on all the polls are believers by the way.

You must lead a very sheltered life.
Skeptical Inquirer magazine: Published by UFO Skeptics or Disinformation Agents?,

I have a cousin who has published articles in Skeptical Inquirer, mostly about debunking false psychics and faith healers. He's also contributed to one or two of James Randi's books. Anyway, he's not a Disinfo Agent, he just thinks its important to stop charlatans, especially people like faith healers who give people false hope that they've been healed of serious illnesses when in fact they have not. He's a medical doctor, so that last part is really kind of a mission for him. To his point of view he's helping save lives, so people with serious illnesses won't throw their money and the hopes away on false healers and will seek proper medial attention for what ails them.
"As a result of several trips to project Bluebook,I´ve had an opportunity to examine quite carefully and in detail the types of reports that are made by Bluebook personnel.In most cases, I have found that theres almost no correlation between so-called "evaluations and explanations" that are made by Bluebook and the facts of the case...
There are hundreds of good cases in the Air Force files that should have led to top-level scientific scrutiny of this problem,years ago,yet these cases have been swept under the rug in a most disturbing way by Project Bluebook investigators and their consultants."
