And imagine that you saw that outside.
You wouldn't necessarily know how far away the object was and therefore you wouldn't necessarily know how fast it was moving. You'd misjudge it. And to give everybody an example that they will have familiarity with. I was driving down the highway at one point. Rainstorm, but the sun was shining and I saw a rainbow. And I've thought a lot about rainbows. They're pretty interesting.

And I realized that I could tell that although the rainbow looked to be 10 miles from me or something like that, it was actually feet from me. And I could tell that because the rainbow came down onto the road and I could see it in front of the guardrail. Continuous rainbow where the parts up here look like they're closer to the mountains in the distance.

But when I see where it's continued down into the spray off the road, it's actually 10 feet away, right? So the mind is building a model of stuff. And if you give it the wrong cues, it'll totally misunderstand the distance that it's looking at. To the extent that a rainbow is at a distance, right?

So if you had a robust journalistic apparatus, what it would want to do is figure out, well, if person A was standing in location X and they saw a craft moving at what appeared to be 200 miles an hour, at a distance of five miles, then the question is, well, who else would have seen it? And if we go and we ask people who were standing in those locations, did they see it at all?

Because if they didn't, then maybe the thing was inches away from the person being projected locally, right? And they only felt like they saw something at a great distance.

Well, I'm going to share credit with Ben Davidson for this, but the basic point is PSYOP until proven otherwise. And PSYOP until proven otherwise, I think, is a very functional way to approach this because...
