A flying saucerlike object hovered low over O'Hare International Airport for several minutes before bolting through thick clouds with such intense energy that it left an eerie hole in overcast skies, said some United Airlines employees who observed the phenomenon.

Interesting that so many came forward, yet are not taken seriously.

Well, the physicists say there is a probability for every event you can imagine. This one is pretty low, though, I'd say.

Interesting that no one could find a camera or a camera-cellphone at an airport.

"To fly 7 million light years to O'Hare and then have to turn around and go home because your gate was occupied is simply unacceptable," said O'Hare controller and union official Craig Burzych.
BWAHahahahaha. At least they didn't have to take their shoes off to go through security.

I agree that when lots of people see something it should be checked out. On the other hand there may be little to find

"One United employee appeared emotionally shaken by the sighting..."
Were they emotionally shaken before, or just after?

Someone can sneak a cell phone video of Saddam's execution, but no one at O'Hare has a video? I believe Saddam is dead. I don't believe the UFO story. These witnesses need a beating.

How many people saw a missile strike TWA flight 800, and were ignored? I'd say 100, including pilots.

Old military saying
Don't ask the question if you can't live with the answer.
The FedGov will never follow up on these, with the possible exception of a UFO landing on an aircraft and crushing it.

All the witnesses said the object was dark gray and well defined in the overcast skies. They said the craft, estimated by different accounts to be 6 feet to 24 feet in diameter, did not display any lights.Sounds more like an experimental military drone than Uncle Wally visiting from Mars.
