You know, people in a.a.v could save a lot of typing by adopting
a classification system similar to the CE1,2,3 etc. system used
to classify close encounters.  I propose a CR (Canned Response)
system.  Here's a start:

Topic                          Code    = Response
----------------------------   ----    ----------------------------------
FTL                            CR1     aliens are smarter than us; just
                                       because we can't do it doesn't
                                       mean it can't be done.

Gov't ignores or denies        CR2     cover-up/conspiracy
knowledge of some UFO topic

TV show that supports UFO      CR3     We are being readied for the big
theories                               announcement

TV show that debunks UFO       CR4     Government disinformation
theories

Legitimate scientific          CR5     Decoy
research on ET existence
(e.g., SETI)

Natural disaster               CR6     See, Nostradamus/Cayce/Fatima
                                       was right!

Personal tale of abduction     CR7     X seems like a decent person,
                                       so it must be true.

Where's the evidence?          CR8     Obviously covered up.  Here's
                                       proof: No one can find any.


I'm sure there are more.  Just a suggestion.
