People are freaking out about aliens... seriously

New York Times reports on secretive US Pentagon programs

Normally I would dismiss this kind of thing, but this is reported in the New York Times. They wrote yesterday about aliens, and Harry Reid's secretive funding of Pentgon programs to study UFOs.

One of the interesting tidbits is a warehouse that is holding some strange materials recovered from unidentified aerial phenomena:

"Under Mr. Bigelow's direction, the company modified buildings in Las Vegas for the storage of metal alloys and other materials that Mr. Elizondo and program contractors said had been recovered from unidentified aerial phenomena. Researchers also studied people who said they had experienced physical effects from encounters with the objects and examined them for any physiological changes."

For his part, Mr. Reid said he did not know where the objects had come from. "If anyone says they have the answers now, they're fooling themselves," he said. "We do not know."
