" Reminds one of the UFO TUBA blast in the movie CLOSE ENCOUNTERS that shattered the glass in the tower on the set...."

Great movie, some was filmed in my backyard:

"The entire landing strip complex behind Devil's Tower was actually constructed and filmed in an abandoned aircraft hangar at Brookley AFB in Mobile, AL."

Didn't know that about film sets/locations for CLOSE ENCOUNTERS. If you've ever actually been there at the devils tower you know how SMALL it is, and just an asphalt walkway around it. My father was born in Hulitt, WY; just a stone's throw away. There is another similar volcanic spire in the area but it isn't as prominent as the devil's tower.
