UFO experts asked to stop milking Area 51
UFOLOGISTSÂ have been told to stop going on about Roswell and come up with an alien incident within the last 20 years. Cultural analystsÂ believe UFO culture, which enjoyed a wave of popularity in the 1950s and a 1990s revival, isÂ coasting on old glories. Network engineer Tom Logan said: âI am massively credulous and own a bong, so I was perfectly happy believing that Area 51 was real right up until that Ant and Dec film came out. âBut itâs past time for something a bit fresher, whether itâs garish 80s VHS of a spacecraft buzzing an outdoor rave or security camera footage of a 1995 alien abduction. âIt doesnât have to be the least bit convincing. And personally I would be very interested in something that combined aliens with 9/11, just to put that out there.â Paranormal things enthusiastÂ Denys Finch Hatton said: âItâs not just UFOs. âThere is a real shortage of new material in cryptozoology, psychic studies and all the other completely made-up fields. âThe public no longer gives a toss about Bigfoot, the Bermuda Triangle or spoon bending, but inexplicably there have been hardly anyÂ painfully faked contrivances since crop circles. âIf anyoneâs got half an imagination and five minutes free for a shaky YouTube video, we promise weâll believe it for at least twenty years. âItâs that or reality.â
