The only other version of the story I know is the one where the UFOs we saw on the Alexandria Desert road that night (from the window of the tour bus, with all your students, when we were returning from witnessing the solar eclipse at the famous Library of Alexandria, remember?) later visited Washington DC and Orange County, abducted Liane Hansen and you and revealed that there is a cosmic battle going on between the Reptoids (who want to terraform the earth for their invasion using global warming) and the Grays (who want to help humanity by encouraging the work of your graduate students who investigate energy and water issues in Africa that could help us prevent climate change under your tutelage).
I think I read that version on Whitley Streiber’s journal blog , but I may have had parts of my memory erased and reprogrammed. I think there was also something about Charlie Sheen being involved (playing you in the movie version?) but everything is still fuzzy…
Seriously, thanks for putting the NPR thing in motion, and thanks for plugging our “Ph.-do” work on your blog. Who knows – given what happened last time, this latest post could spawn even more Amazing Stories (and Science Wonder Stories and Fantastic Adventures Quarterly!).
Cheers, and thanks again.
