Aargh! Turned on the computer early this morning and there was an email with a newsletter from the UK National Archives asking me if I had ever had a close encounter or seen bright , unexplained lights in the skies . At first, I thought it was an NT News online survey . The email said more than 800 sightings had been reported to the Ministry of Defence between January 1993 and August l996 and its files have just been released . It also offered a UFO page , a videocast highlighting some of the most interesting stories from the files , such as alien abductions in Staffordshire, and announced David Clarke's book on UFOS would be released next month. It seems there is no escape from aliens from outer space as the ABC's Media Watch last night went into a spin over a Sunday Territorian front page story about UFOS. Even that ABC Late Night Live tease ,Phillip Adams, pulling the leg of a right wing Yank , claimed to have been abducted by aliens and subjected to anal examination.
