Why would they be excited? That would certainly cut their funding. > UFOS: CHALLENGE TO SETI SPECIALISTS (Friedman, 2002) > Major news media and many members of the scientific community have taken strongly to the radio-telescope-based SETI (Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence) program as espoused by its charismatic leaders, but not supported by any evidence whatsoever. In turn, perhaps understandably, they feel it necessary to attack the ideas of alien visitors (UFOs) as though they were based on tabloid nonsense instead of on far more evidence than has been provided for SETI. One might hope, vainly I am afraid, that they would be concerned with The Search for Extraterrestrial Visitors (SETV). I would hereby like to challenge the SETI specialists, members of the scientific community, and the media to recognize the overwhelming evidence and significant consequences of alien visits and to expose the serious deficiencies of the SETI-related claims. I have publicly and privately offered to debate any of them. No takers so far. https://web.archive.org/web/20191222220058/http://stantonfriedman.com/index.php?ptp=articles&fdt=2002.05.13 https://web.archive.org/web/20191222220058/http://stantonfri...
