S.E.T.I. just isn't a good idea.

Hay why I'm at it why don't I list Ezekiel. (Although I admit he is less than creditable)

And in a less sensational note Carbonyl sulfide has been discovered in the atmosphere of Venus, OCS is suggestive that life of some sort is there.

Those sources all say the same general thing: 'I think I saw something. I don't know what it was. I cannot explain it.' They are no different than Ezekiel, although Ezekiel gave greater detail in his testemony than any of the others. This is not proof. Proof is multiple sources citing the same specific information. For example: Jesus was wandering the countryside, claiming to be the Son of God and attracting a large number of admirers. All of the historical writers agree on this.

Process of elimination. 'I saw something that wasn't "ours", I saw something that wasn't "theirs", it was not an aircraft as we know it but it was artificially constructed". This is basically what a lot of those statements say, what possibly could it be?

You need multiable confirmed sightings from different sources:

Here you can find some of the testimony of some USAF F-94 pilots who quite possibly dogfighted with ET over Washington DC.
