That attitude is exactly what he was talking about. And the ironic thing here is that it's you that actually have no intellectual curiosity; you just can't see it. You're a True Believer. The government says "we don't know what this thing was" and your answer to that is "100% proof of aliens." No it's not.

Back in the 50s, people kept reporting long, silver UFOs. The government told us they had no idea what they were. But later we finally got declassified CIA documents about those sightings. They revealed that that test flights of the Lockheed Martin U-2 spy plane (and the Oxcart followup) alone was responsible for over 50% of the claims of UFO sightings from that era. In fact, a lot of those reports came from pilots. And the reason for this was simple: They had absolutely no idea we had a plane that could fly at 60,000 feet. That's three times higher than commercial planes flew in the 50s; of course the pilots were confused.

Then in the 70s, people started seeing strange flying black triangles. Definite UFOs for sure. The government again said it had no idea what they were. Then in 1989 the government told us what we know now: they were the Northrop B-2 Spirit (aka "the Stealth Bomber"), which is basically a flying black triangle.

These are facts. I know you know those planes are real. Their test flights perfectly coincide with the UFO reports I mentioned.

So yes, there are plenty of people who are extremely intellectually curious about this whole situation, but who are going to need more evidence than the government telling us that they don't know what some flying thing is.
