So, how come there are no ufo’s ‘buzzing’ astronauts, shuttles and space stations but only earth-bound pilots?
Astronauts have reported UFOs ever since man has gone in to space.
They don't buzz civilian pilots any more or less frequently than astronauts. As far as buzzing military pilots so frequenctly, reasons are easy to imagine. Such as, they wish our military to observe them. Any notion that UFO sightings are pure happenstance doesn't make much sense. Like when they flash bright lights which scream to be seen. With the technology UFOs routinely exhibit, it must be only too simple for them to remain in stealth if they wished not to be observed. Ergo, they wish to be observed when, and by whom, they desire.
Gordon Cooper disagrees, for one.
I keep mentioning recent documentaries such as The Phenomenon because this stuff is UFOlogy 101.
Someone pointed out the pilots in some of these videos sound like kids playing a video game. With folks crying "national security is at stake" you might think they would be trying to hail or challenge or something that at least seems serious.
Playing the Devil’s advocate (because I’ve heard this actual complaint), couldn’t one just as easily single out a lack of amazement or incredulousness as proof that what was being seen was nothing unusual?
Yes, they do sound a little like kids playing a video game, but consider who they actually are. Young adults, probably in their twenties, and who undoubtedly, still play video games. Plus they sound more like their having nervous fun, sort of whistling past the graveyard. The UFOs, meanwhile, seem to be playing an ongoing, non-shooting game of Tom & Jerry style cat and mouse, with the young pilots recognizing that their role is Tom.
Are there any worthwhile examples? My first find was Lovell and the Titan booster rocket stage.
My second was: "According to Armstrong’s further intel, there was an alien base on the Moon and they even encountered these aliens who told them to leave immediately."
Please don't cite Edgar Mitchell.

I was actually going to say the same, Ken.
Ultimately, the tone of the witness is more a reflection of the witnesses character than the character of that being witnessed.
Ultimately, the tone of the witness is more a reflection of the witnesses character than the character of that being witnessed.
So, here's the proceedure.
1) Roughly total the number of U.S. civilian pilot flights ever since the beginning of the space program. Then count the documented civilian pilot UFO sightings over that same period. Compute the percentage.
2) Next, total the number of U.S. maned space flights. Then count the number of documented astronaut UFO sightings. Compute that percentage.
3) Then, we'll compare the two percentages to see which is greater. Care to guess which it will be? Or, you could simply concede the point now, instead.

UFO picture taken during Gemini mission in 1965? I'm not sure how authentic that image is but something to ponder...
Keep in mind who made a point of conjecture about the tone of the witnesses first
Avoiding the question is the procedure?
Concede what point? I found two examples and asked for a third. I didn't think it was unreasonable, and it had nothing to do with "the point."
Then there was a misunderstanding. I wasn't making a diagnosis, I was describing symptoms. With that info, maybe you should reread the relevant posts.
