[QUOTE="Mercule, post: 1185750, member: 5100"] Nope. If you think there are documents the government/NASA is intent on hiding, and SciFi isn't primarily using the suit to generate PR, then it makes perfect sense and I'd never be able to convince anyone otherwise. My gut reaction is that it's a PR thing. I don't think I ever said anything designed to persuade anyone. Just threw out an opinion and was attacked for something I didn't say (or didn't mean to imply). Everything else has been me trying to clarifying that I was irritated over what my gut reaction said their motives were. Oh, and saying that I may have a blind spot because of my own disbelief of UFOs. I figure that acknowledging a bias is pretty much the same thing as saying that I'm not looking objectively and you should take what I said with a grain of salt. The SciFi lawsuit isn't exactly something I'm going to lose sleep over. It isn't the greatest sin I've heard about lately. It just happenned to be about the tenth "frivolous" lawsuit I'd read about in the past couple of days. This one, although the least of the offenders, had a "Reply" button next to it where I could rant about stupid lawsuits. The main thing I forgot is that this may not be a "serious" lawsuit at all. Sometimes the only channel to get certain Federal documents is to go through the courts. If that's all this amounts to, then I've got no problem with it. Obviously, any PR generated over it is incidental and I can't fault their motives. [/QUOTE]
