Just asking your opinion. What´s the explanation to these cases? Let´s keep it simple folks. Either you have an explanation or you don´t. Nothing more nothing less. Actually it seems that you are not even trying. That´s very undestandable since these cases are nothing like mundane even though your null hypothesis is that they are. You are guessing only and hypothesis is only a hypothesis. It´s not a fact, it´a a hypothesis (like a theory).

I don't know. They're Unidentified. That's what the U in UFO means. Did you have some other explanation?

Yes. Hoax is common knowledge and thus it´s a mundane explanation. Not sure though if any of these cases is really proven to be hoax beyond reasonable belief. It´s easy to say that though.

Unknown is not same as mundane. If it´s unknown how could we know that it is mundane. Of course we could define universe so, that it only contains mundane things. I am sure that in that case, of course there are no non-mundane cases.

You never will be sure. You want them to be aliens.

The default position is that it's mundane until and unless proven otherwise. How many have been proven to be otherwise so far? You don't get to shove your aliens of the gaps argument in just because something is Unidentified.
 
tom71, since it is clear that you don't comprehend what a null hypothesis is any better than ufology did, can you think of any way that someone could explain it to you so that you could understand it? Would explaining it in French help?

I'd like to help you, I'm just at a loss to know how to.

Who cares if they are mundane or non mundane. The question is: what are they?

Funny how an advanced civilization that can travel from the stars can’t just plaster across the sky,

“HEY EARTH PEOPLE, WE IS HERE”.

What are the mundane explanations to these cases in this video:
http://vimeo.com/19717064

The cases are:
#10: Nuremberg, 1561
#9: Skylab III
#8: Yukon 'mothership'
#7: Malstrom AFB
#6: Shag Harbour
#5: Kelly Johnson
#4: McMinnville/Trent Photo
#3: Rendlesham Forest
#2: Iran, 1976
#1: RB-47

Actually: I only want to know your explanations (mundane) to 9 and 8. Let´s say that they are not aliens/alien craft, but what is your explanation if you are sure, that there must be a mundane explanation? What´s the scientific or sceptical point of view to those cases. How would you explain them to a person who is almost becoming a ufo nut and you can still prevent it by having a good explanation. Would you even try?

You want us to take seriously a list that has a truck's wing mirror come in at Number Four? Wow.

Pas de pièces retournées transformer en papillons? :p
 
I am glad if they actually do found to be mundane, because that gives them an explanation. I don´t care if they are alien crafts or weather phenomena or hoaxes. I am happy with anykind of explanation if it answers to these mysteries.

That's an odd point of view. I would care a great deal if an alien craft were to ever appear in our skies.

You must be very unhappy in your life, not knowing what is in everyone's pockets.
