The concept of 'expert witness' means absolutely nothing with regard to this phenomena. Likewise, 'expert opinions' aren't worth their salt either. To me the claim of expert witness/expert opinion implies an individual having a long history of UFO sightings/interactions, something a tad bit problematic. Unfortunately, when it comes to this phenomena we are all in the same boat, and one having tattered sails at that. - Jason Gammon
