um and of course there are lots of people who are speculating and talking about the subject and it's all about evidence you see that a picture is worth a thousand words i would prefer not to speak at all just if i had it in my hand you know the proof then i would just show it and let's move on you know like why do we have to talk about it um

And a lot of people just have an opinion.

It's not bad as long as you're motivated to collect evidence and show it publicly.

What would you do if someone just dropped a piece of a craft on your desk?

What would be the first thing you'd do with it?

I would check it.

I would check the isotopes.

I would immediately be able to say whether it came from outside the solar system.

In fact, there were people wanting me to look over pieces, but they never delivered it.

there are some pieces floating around out there i don't know how real it is about recovered metal from craft that's arranged sort of layered in a lattice structure that could be a wave guide right so but

The publicly available data is not conclusive.

And that's what I would like to find, something that is beyond any reasonable doubt that you can present to a reasonable person that is not a member of academia and they will apply common sense and it would be obvious that this is the right interpretation.

Oh, you're so hesitant.

I don't know why you get attacked so much.

You're so careful.

When I read about particles winking in and out of existence, it makes me think about zero point energy.

How do you feel about that?

Is that real?

Yeah, that's definitely something in the context of physics.

That basically means that the vacuum itself, if you empty space of all the material and radiation in it, there is something left.
