'UFO Octopus' Destroys Wind Turbine; Gore Fears for Life

UFO versus Wind Turbine

Methinks they joust at Windmills after way too many quaffs of ale. Why, oh why would an alian spacecraft pick on one windturbine out of the hundreds dotting the landscape. Everything man made is subject to fail, we don't need a martian to destroy it for us, we are quite capable of doing it our very selves. The sky is NOT falling, it's just another junk windturbine falling apart. Breeeathe deeeeeep...reeelaaax..all is well, have another ale.

Skeptics abound

Skeptics called the great scientist Galileo a heretic when he theorized that the Earth was not flat and was not the center of God's universe. They executed him for this heinous crime. Now as in the past we have nay-sayers who scoff at events and phenomena that they can not explain, that do not conform to socially acceptable ideas or are not politically correct. It's so much easier for those who fear the unknown or cling to old ideas or religious dogma to dismiss possibilites as nonsense. Because to embrace the possible means that Biblical descriptions of the end times describe alien extraterrestrial beings (led by JC of course) coming from the heavens (outer space) and dealing us puny Earthlings catostrophic suffering and massive deaths. That would just be too much to accept, especially from people who believe there is a benevolent, merciful, forgiving God who does not exercise revenge or torments mankind with repeated destruction. As for Darwinist who deny creationism... could it just be that life on earth emanated from the heavens, coming here inside meteorites from exploded planets, or even from Martian debris when Mars was more temperate like Earth? No doubt skeptics will scoff and ridicule and say that'a another fantasy.

wind turbine damage

Enough already! You have to get your head examined to be beleive

in UFO'S.or just completely ignore commonly known facts.First

things first,any space traveler will have to completely understand quantum mechanics and physics. This knowledge alone

makes any trip to earth useless. With this knowledge another

species could make or produce any form of matter they required

and propably many we never could even dream of. THERE IS NOTHING

HERE ON EARTH THEY WOULD NEED! Travel thru space at speeds above 186,262.4 mps (light speed) would also mean that they could arive at any time they choose,berfore the dinosaurs or a 1,000 years in our future which brings paradox's into play. Based on our own limited technology aliens could park themselves on the moon and easily

remain invisable and learn all that need to know about us.

Here's a question. Why do almost all UFO sightings apear near

or over sensitive military bases? No connection there. Right.

What a great cover for the military! Get people to look for UFO,S instead of discovering the existence of a new aircraft.

Case in point. The F117 stealth fighter was in full sqaudron

force and operating for 10 years before one crashed in California and you can bet that the B2 was operating a lot longer than we know.I have no doubt that the triangle

shaped objects people were seeing were B2's.

The biological argument is pointless as well. With our present

knowledge we can clone and grow almost any form of life we know

of limited only by our ethics and morals. Imagine what a species could produce with technology light years ahead of us!

Maybe we were visited but certaintly without our knowing.

This is science fiction.

Who cares.

Who cares if you believe in aliens or not. I don't need to proof, I don't need NASA to explain it to me. The fact of the matter is: Who cares what damaged this Wind Turbine. WHO CARES.

The real story about wind turbines is they shut down

Heavy icing breaks blades and one can get long periods of windless weather during cold periods just when additional electricity is needed. Given that the temperatures have been going down for the last 7 years in spite of additional CO2, it might be time to get back to reality. The climate changes, we have nothing to do with it, and UFOs are probably something secret and military.

Extraterrestrials are a fact of life

Typical of a mainstream media author to laugh it off, how can there alien spacecraft flying around when humans are all alone in the universe. The creators only creation. ..ya right.

NEWSFLASH: The Creator created the universe and all life within it. Earth is not alone, it is one of millions. The facts will be evident to all soon enough. Love yourself, love your neighbor and Love the elements of creation that surrounds you.

inform yourself

where is the blade then

Hi, I dont want to throw a spanner in the works, but i live in the UK and i am a member of a 4x4 club, 1 of our members lives within a couple of miles of the wind farm and has visited the site and spoken to some of the officials on site, and has a friend who works for the company who owns the wind farm and the story is that the blade is missing, they have searched a wide area around the turbine and found nothing. This sort of blows the metal fatigue and errant firework ideas out of the water for me. I'm not saying it is a UFO but lets face it whatever it was is still unidentified, and to hit a blade 290 feet off the ground it had to be flying really. All the best from the UK, DAZ

paper shit

why are american papers so passive on occourances that happen in any other country than its own? if this event happened in the US it would of been on CNN and Bush would have been claiming the world was coming to an end, americans in general need to brodern there horizons and stop thinking that they are the bee all and end all of everything. Believe it or not your not the only country that populates this planet.
