Allright, all of you that will be quite enough! Obviously you're not mature enough to give this subject the careful consideration and respect it deserves. I want you to all log off this instant and go do your piano practicing.

Well the reporting, as usual, sucks in the inattention to detail and downright wrong reporting of some of the "facts".

USAF Chief could mean the CSUSAF or a chief master sergeant (E-9). I'm pretty sure they meant the latter but still, the ambiguity erodes confidence in the quality of reporting.

With respect to the Malmstrom story the report said "the lights were over their missile silo". The fact is, the silos (10 per flight) are geographiclly separated from the Launch Control Center which is the only manned portion of the Minuteman system. The only case where anyone would notice that lights were over "their" missile silo is when a maintenance team was at one of the remote silos.

As a MCCC, Capt Salas should have known the difference and it would be assumed he could get his story right. If what he said was "the lights were over their missile silo" I would doubt the accuracy of any of his statement because of this fundamental flaw in systems knowledge of the Minuteman system.

If he was incorrectly quoted as saying "the lights were over their missile silo" then I would doubt the accuracy of the reporting and the credibility of any other aspects of the article.

Listening to Pink Floyd and doing acid is a combination best not attempted by amateurs.

No kidding! To get hallucinations like that takes dosages so high only real professionals can handle!

Closed course...professional drivers...do not attempt at home!

I read an article about this last week.

IIRC, Capt Salas said the lights were over the command center, as reported by the outside guards.

Then his controls indicated all 10 silos had been deactivated. He used a specific term which I can’t recall, and said the status lights went from green to red. He sent guards to one and there was an object hovering over them.

After the objects left, there was what sounded like considerable work to get the missles back to ready status.

I’m paraphrasing, but if you do a search, you can probably find better accounts posted here on Friday.

Naw. Rumor has it her face is . . . devoted to other priorities.

Is it just me, or do alien stories keep popping up with unusual frequency lately?
