As an AI artist I regularly do UFOs. A frame from one of my videos....

Sorry, but that is putting words in mouths and thoughts in heads of those skeptics who take the position that the report was likely generated, at its core, by nothing much, and was based on misperceived normal objects and lights. Nothing about...

I've updated Sitrec to handle most coordinate formats, including MGRS (Military Grid). So any of the following formats should work if you paste it in the lookup box. 37S CR 11926 9292332.45836.999 37SCR119269292332.45836.999...

They don't. Ie. @John J. already referenced the Fatima 'miracle of the sun'. What's hallucinated depends on the context, and the zeitgeist.

Your assertion is not supported by any evidence. We only have four contemporaneous testimonies: Andrew Greenwood (science teacher) (interviewed in the paper and a year later by James McDonald) Marilyn Eastwood (now Smith) (interviewed in the...

I don't. Synchronicity almost drove my friend J literally insane. It's basically more intense the higher your stress levels, or if one trains themself to be hyper-alert (like flight or fight mode) all the time. It's not good for your physical...

I think (@BoulderRiver, @Perene will know) the Policia Militar are organised along state lines, but are under the supervision of the National Council of Public Security. The Wikipedia article "Law enforcement in Brazil" says the State Military...

To me its more akin to those scratch cards where the odds are 1,000 to one....rather than the massive single odds for a jackpot win. You have a much higher chance of winning on a scratch card. It's great if you do, but nothing statistics...

I agree, but I used the National Lottery as an extreme example. Given you agree the chances of winning the lottery are much lower than the chances of getting something by chance, I still don't understand why you then find something by chance a...

That's why I think collecting examples here on MB would be useful because we could get together and come up with ways to analyse that dataset, and it would be an interesting exercise for pretty much everyone who partakes in MB, whether it's just...

I think with something like new words its more a case of frequency than odds. Your chances of hearing a new word twice on the same day are way better than the lottery. So the issue is not that it happens...it is bound to...but how often it does...

Good idea. The thing is.....of course some such coincidences are inevitable purely by chance. So one would need to establish whether it is happening more often than one would expect by chance. Quite how one establishes that is hard. I had a rough...
