I would say you've been lucky. I'm quite interested in the whole thing and have no doubt that people see things they can't explain. Or think theyv'e seen things. What you see and what the brain tells you you've seen aren't always the same thing.

>And yet I have seen quite a few over my lifetime. Why is that? How come I have been so unlucky? Surprisingly, a friend of mine has a $15,000 telescope and when I've been at his place using the telescope I have not seen anything that couldn't be identified. In fact, I've never seen a UFO in North Carolina period.

>>I watch the sky a lot because I'm interested in astronomy and I've never seen a UFO. I used to live near Cley Hill in the UK which was supposed to be a UFO centre (its also near Salisbury Plain which is a major UK military exercise area which I think explains a lot of "lights in the sky").
