Good on you, Morgaine. I was very fortunate to be witness to an elaborate helicopter/ufo hoax way back in '81/'82, out at Hofstra U. on Long Island, NY. This thing was completely silent, hovered, and was festooned with flashing, swirling lights and all. Why or how it was cleared to land on the fields adjacent to our dorms is anyone's guess, but a bunch of drunk, partying college students thought it was the end of the world on that Friday night, LOL! That cured me of any belief -- well that, and becoming acquainted with NJ's own Dr. UFO (Pat what's-his-name), and his history of grift, deception and theft of other's faked materials. Of course, those are not in any way everything to be known, but it frees me in the way that mall Santa Clauses do -- but still, the spirit of Christmas (or Winter Solstice for my Pagan friends) endures! Peace, and good luck with your move.
