True; the argument from personal experience is probably the most compelling to the person making it, but when it comes to convincing others, it’s the weakest.  Consider that when the first European explorers in Australia discovered the platypus, naturalists back in Britain and America didn’t believe them. They thought it was a hoax. Photographs weren’t enough, even stuffed specimens weren’t enough. Only when they caught a live platypus and sent it back to a zoo did naturalists say, “Yeah, it looks like you’ve got a real, live animal there.” That’s the way it is with UFO’s and the paranormal at least.
