Interesting list - all very relevant to today. We have just been discussing the comet again - and how ancient people would have viewed them. Are you going to bring this up to date ?
MsDemmie -> A listing that would be up-to-date would be into the tens if not hundreds of thousands world wide.We do on our site include sighting reports over the last hundred years for our province in Canada. It is fairly extensive. The bottom link will give you an idea of the sheer magnitude and scope such an undertaking would require. http://www.pararesearchers.org/UFOs/sightings/sightings.html
Cheers!
I believe there is UFO footage of a sighting that occurred during the swearing in ceremony for one of the governors in Mexico just a few years ago. Can't remember which city, but there were hundreds of witnesses and it was filmed by news crews. Hi Cyberoutlaw, I remember that one, and how it was hotly debatd at the time. I believe it is still considerd an anomaly. Cheers!
