   Well, letting a semi-religious UFO believer investigate it would be even   
   more funny, and the result would be utterly predictable :-) It's like   
   letting a devout christian investigate whether or not there is a God. What   
   are the odds of a negative on that one? :-)   
   It should be investigated by someone who adheres strictly to the scientific   
   method. Such a person would not believe either way, being interested only in   
   the evidence.

   I'd do it, too, and I don't know in advance what the result would turn out   
   to be.   
   The only thing I'm fairly sure of is that unknown objects are in the skies.   
   What they are is another matter.
