I saw an airshow last year and I watched the F117 stealth fighter fly by, and if that would have flown by 40 years ago, people would have thought it was a UFO. I'm sure.

Area 51 is on the map, but it's usually bundled in as Nellis AFB. As for the stealth, I wonder if when people report seeing a triangle shaped UFO they aren't talking about the B-2 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/B-2_Spirit.

I had no idea Area 51 was on the map though.

Does anyone believe Fire in the Sky was real or a hoax?

It's also really easy to pass a lie detector test if you know how to do it. The easiest trick I've heard is asking yourself (in your head) a question you can truthfully answer with the same answer you want to give for the lie detector test. It measures blood pressure, heart rate, respirations (I believe), that kind of thing.

So you don't believe it was real?

I'm skeptical of a lot of things people have seen. It doesn't mean I don't think other lifeforms are out there though.
Now ghosts-there's a good topic.
