WARNING: This article has nothing to do with UFO's.

While not stated explicitly in this PR, the meta-materials that are referenced are supposedly from possible ET craft. This announcement has everything to do with UFO's as TTSA (To the Stars Academy) is the group that brought publicity to the NAVY UFO videos, helped change NAVY policy on UFO reporting, and also got the NAVY to state those videos of UFO's were real.

that's not true on many levels. What the navy said was that the videos were taken by their aircraft and that they were UFOs, but nobody said the UFOs were extraterrestrial craft. Nobody has any "meta-materials from possible ET craft".

Wow, you're really confident in that assesment. Maybe you would be interested to see the WikiLeaks leaked email exchange between Tom Delonge and John Podesta where Tom talks about his collaboration with Maj. Gen. William N. McCasland.

The truth is the US government does have these materials and more...

Anyone can send an email to anyone else and make any claims they like. Now please prove to us that the "collaboration" and events described in that email actually took place.

>I don't exist for your amusement.

Do you feel threatened by being asked to justify a claim? Perhaps you expect people to take this UFO stuff for granted without skepticism? Sorry... if that's the sort of community you're looking for, /x/ may be more your forte.

>but you may find this interesting

I notice every one of your sources reference TTSA, and this link does as well, and contains more claims from Tom Delonge, but you haven't actually justified your treatment of these claims or sources as factually accurate. You can't prove Tom Delonge is credible with more quotes from Tom Delonge, that's not how proof works.

I’m not threatened at all, I’m just not going to do your research for you that’s all. Either you’re intrigued and you will do look into it, or you’re not and you wont, I don’t come here to convince anyone.

I looked through everything you posted and I don't find it convincing.

I agree. Note that this is an email from "Tom DeLonge" to "John Podesta". I'd be more impressed if it were an email form "John Podesta" to "Tom DeLonge".

Here this may help you get a sense of things: https://www.vice.com/en_us/article/wje9w5/the-tom-delonge-wi...

The guidelines ask to use the original title in the submission https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html In some cases it is better to use the subtitle, or a relevant sentence of the article (whatever is less linkbaty).

As an indirect consequence, if the article doesn't say UFO in the title or the body, don't use UFO in the title of the submission.

Here's what I'll do, I'll change the title to something closer to the original PR title, then the haters can rest, but I'm not changing my comments.
