The markings are shorthand recipe directions for preparing the largest omlete ever.
Interesting with 1970s UFO photos and witness descriptions they describe a cigar shaped, thin object, making a light whistling sound...which now resemble what we now know as unmanned predator drones since the war on terror was declared.
So what we might be looking at is an experimental aircraft the government is fine-tuning. With all of the talk of what could be possible with nanotechnology, this might be a prototype of that kind.
This whole conversation reminds me of my favorite SNL skit with Steve Martin and Bill Murray...
What The Hell Is That?
Tourist #1.....Steve Martin
Tourist #2.....Bill Murray
[ Tourist #1 wanders onto set, looks straight into camera inquisitively with a dumb look on his face ]
Tourist #1: What the hell is that?! [ squints ] What the hell is that? [ chuckling at himself ] What’s that danged thing doing here! How did that get here? What the hell is that?! [ squints ] What the hell is that?! How’d that dang deal get here?! [ turns off-camera ] Hey! Come on over here and look at this deal!
[ Tourist #2 wanders onto the set to take a bewildered look ]
Tourist #2: What the hell is that?
Tourist #1: I don’t know what the hell that is!
Tourist #2: What in the hell is that?!
Tourist #1: Hey, you kids! Get away from there!
Tourist #2: I would not mess with that thing..
Tourist #1: Don’t put your lips on it!
Tourist #2: [ ever curious ] What the hell is this?
Tourist #1: Well.. get a photo of me with it, anyway!
[ Tourist #1 hands camera to Tourist #2, then walks away from camera view to have his picture taken ]
Tourist #2: Be careful with that thing. [ snaps Tourist #1’s picture, as spark of ingenuity develops on his face ] Oh, I know what that is!
Tourist #1: [ returns next to Tourist #2 ] Well, what the hell is it?!
Tourist #2: [ looks closer ] What is that thing..?
Tourist #1: I don’t even care what it is. [ pause ] What the hell is that?!
Tourist #2: I don’t know what the hell that thing is.
Tourist #1: Oh, I know what it is!
Tourist #2: [ seeing it ] Oh, yeah.. oh yeah.. [ chuckles ]
[ Tourist #1 & #2 walk away from the stage. A beat, before their heads peer back into frame, more inquisitive than ever. ]
Tourist #1: What the hell was that?!
