I consider myself a fully paid-up sceptic who, I suppose, believes the UFO phenomenon says more about human consciousness than it does about anything non-human. Yet I have actually seen, and indeed photographed, what I have to call a 'UFO' (the picture isn't that interesting, though does establish that something was actually there). I guess this is partly because as someone with an occasional interest in how things in the sky are misperceived, I'm often looking up - I wouldn't have noticed otherwise.
This got me thinking - I seem to remember reading a similar statistic about astronomers, but surely sceptics should have more UFO sightings than most other people? I'm only really aware of Donald Menzel's sighting in New Mexico in 1949. Is anyone aware of any others?
