hey, you've got an presidential election coming up, remember.. against
major weirdness like that, what's a few secrets about UFOs?

or maybe it's just a local guy: the famous brown roof jumper of
Salt Lake City, reported by Charles Fort as early as the 1890s?!
and of course, strange jumpings on the roof late at night is a
well known phenomena from all over the world: the same thing happened
in Jokkmokk in northern Sweden in 1922, and in Utsktutsk in Siberia
early in 1949 (of course we never got any reports of that, but the papers
are all hidden in some archive in Moscow). not to forget the roof
jumper of Garmisch Partenkirchen in 1942, that the nazis hunted down
and tried to use as a secret weapon.....

the truth is out there! :-)

no, really JP, i find your story fascinating. you've got any
explanation, however wild?? (apart from the arriving aliens
i mean?)
