THE TRUTH IS OUT THERE



by ROD ICE

Yes, the truth really is out there. I saw it at the county archives this week.

For a few years, one of my older, hotrodder friends has insisted that there was a UFO incident in the countryside, east of Cleveland. Right in our back yard. One that inspired a report in the local newspaper, and drew attention from law enforcement officers.

Now, I know he was correct.

The report was from November 14, 1957. The incident occurred on November 6th. Civil Defense authorities did an investigation, and radiation was detected at what appeared to be a landing site.

I was able to view an actual copy of the newspaper, in our county archives. Material on the Internet from 'Project 1957' says that the man who viewed the UFO was later interviewed in Washington, D. C. but told to remain silent. He finally admitted the facts to a NICAP representative in 1961.

Truth - as Hunter S. Thompson said, it is a dangerous commodity in the context of professional journalism. But now I know. It really is out there.
