A number of times I've clashed on Usenet with a fellow named Don Palermo.
He claims that UFOs are actually human designed craft and that the
stories
of "Mr. ET" are simply to cover this up. Why don't we see open evidence
of
such craft? According to Don "Its classified," as if merely uttering the
phrase explains everything. Apparentl,y the US has spent zillions of
dollars on "conventional" aircraft and so forth to hide the existence of
this technology, which is controlled by some ultrapowerful cabal, and
which
apparently no one else has ever managed to stumble across

Has Palermo ever explained WHY this cabal would expend so much effort? It
seems
to me to be counter productive.

He has a number of, to me, and others, less than convincing rationalisations
about how it would supposedly do economic harm to people displaced by the
new technologies and so forth. He also, like other conspiracy theorists,
has an amazing faith in the ability of security services or whoever to keep
control of the information involved. After all, you'd think someone would
have gotten their hands on this supertech thru espionage at some point and
used it in such a way that would be publically obvious.
