   The sky is full of weird sh*t these days.   
   When I was a kid a barely saw a meteor.   
   Now you see "swamp gas" all the time.   
      
   For another group I set up a very very crude diary on my web site. I'm more   
   intersted in the research than creating fancy web pages for people to read, so   
   forgive how crude it is.   
   And, no, I'm not going to spend time learning how to do the same thing with   
   the latest   
   web tool from Fancy Dancy Inc.   
      
   My informal method for validating a ufo sighting is -- did a bunch of small   
   planes chase after it? If not, it was prob a satellite.   
      
      
      
   Search command kinda works. Might save you some time reading through lots of   
   entries with nothing interesting in them.   
   And AI selected the items to put in the blog.   
   It turns out I am obsessive diary keeper and   
   when I ran the program to build the blog page   
   there were 60,000 entries that could have gone into   
   the diary. But most of them are about local cats, weird people walking around   
   the neighbourhood creating trouble,  and my bowel movements. The AI tried   
   to filter out most of that, but some junk will remain in there.   
      
   At *some* point I want to go through the diary and extract out the number of   
   daily sightings and compare with MUFON or NUFORC sightings databases to see if   
   Australia   
   is any different to N Am. There are local UFO groups but 99% of the ones I   
   contacted have been discontinued decades ago.
