See it for yourself.

I wasn't trying to say that your guy copied this movie, I was pointing out how most abduction cases share similarities. Either they're all just copying each other (willingly or subconsciously) or there is something going on.
But, I will say that I don't believe ANY eye witness accounts unless it can be backed up with proof like a video or a body, ect. As sincere as someone may be there is a very good chance they're making it up for any number of reasons.
You should see Fire in the Sky btw. I really liked it and it was based on eye witness accounts(I think it was 5 guys, 1 was taken). It's not intended as fiction, it's supposed to tell the story of the people involved. Of course some details were changed when it was made into a film but they did write a book about it in 1978(making this before the guy in Africa).

If we are not interested in finding real answers, but are just having fun, then I ask to be excused.

You can be excused anytime you want since there is no obligation to post but I'm always willing to discuss things seriously. We here at RU like to joke around, even in serious topics. Don't be discouraged by the light hearted tone it's normal.

Thanks for the heads up on the wall of text, (hey you're right !) too many years in school gets one used to seeing almost everything that way (to save paper) but here we have a choice to space it out.

I had no trouble reading your post. I only wrote that to help you get heard since most people who read forums skip over long, clustered posts. It can be intimidating.
