UFO's

http://www.rickross.com/reference/ufo/ufo7.html

The article I read is about a 28 year old who gave up his job as the owner of an online company worth three billion dollars to search for alien life. Being as he is financially set for life, money is of no object to him. The article states that he has spent millions of dollars in his quest to find alien life. The article says, "Joe Firmage believes in aliens - visitors, UFO's. Not just that they exist. That they're here. They walk among us." In my opinion these are some pretty far fetched beliefs. He offers some explanations for his beliefs but I think they all boil down to theories not facts. He talks of a strange experience that he had when an "image of a being" appeared above his bed and spoke to him of space travel. He also believes alot of the world's religions were formed by off worlders. Personally I think what he says is interesting, and I think its cool that hes putting alot of money toward finding extraterrestrial life. However, I don't think he has any factual grounds for his beliefs. Overall though he sounds like a pretty interesting guy. It sounds like he knows a whole hell of alot about computers and physics, but in the end I think his imagination is getting the best of him.
