Comment Pre-1952? (Score 5, Insightful) 100

So why no reports from before 1952? Roswell incident occurred in 1947. I imagine before this people just attributed "UFO"s to natural "unexplained" causes, but then Roswell got so much exposure that I guess it made more sense for people to take the easy way out and say it's aliens. We're still discovering amazing natural occurrences in our atmosphere.

I'm not saying a UFO have never stopped by to take a look, but 99.999% of reports are likely explained by natural causes.

In an interview with Computerworld last week, Ethan Beard, director of the site's developer network, defended Facebook's policies and even said users love the changes that Facebook has made. However, it seems calls for people to delete their Facebook accounts, which have gathered momentum, have not fallen on deaf ears at Facebook. Adding to the perception of a crisis on hand, the NY Times profiled on Wednesday a project called Diaspora*, which is creating a more private, decentralized alternative to Facebook.

Wouldn't some of these fan made games get people interested in some of the originals again? You get enough people into a forgotten series who start asking for more and in turn the rights holder makes a new game of their own in the end with a healthy profit hopefully. Yes, I know... big business doesn't understand this type of thing.
