I live in Washington, number two spot on the list. I arrived here via UFO, so what's your point?

Compare this with the population statistics for US states.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_U.S......pulation

An almost identical distribution. I.e., the more people there are in an area, the more UFO reports you get. Duh!

True, Mike. But it's still interesting that Washington State (where the first UFO sightings in modern times were reported) is 13th in population, but 2nd in most UFO sightings. It is a strange place, believe me. I've been stuck here for 23 years. (There's that pesky 23 again.)

Good thoughts,

How about comparing that chart to one of Bigfoot sightings. That would make more sense to me than a population graph would.

Lots of high people in California and Washington, I'm just saying.

Unidentified flying objects?

I've seen many of those... Especially at drunken parties... Smile

Another interesting distribution to compare it to is military installations.

Bob - Washington comes out high on these.

So you could propose that UFO sightings correlates with number of military installations x population.

WE ARE NOT ALONE.
If I were to agree with you. Then we would both be wrong. As of Apr 5, 2015 10:26 pm I have 880 posts. Used to have over 1,000

Are full of passionate intensity.--Yeats
