Stephenville UFO traveling at 27 mph apparently broke no speed limits
... and thus was not cited by police.

Ken Cherry, state director of the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) for Texas, stated on Sunday (May 18) that the numerous sightings of unidentified flying objects reported over Stephenville and Dublin back in January have yielded no definite evidence as to their - um - true nature.
The MUFON members and others gathered at an Irving public library heard Mr. Cherry and investigator Steve Hudgeons state that the findings of their investigation into the sightings are inconclusive - even though one of the witnesses was able to shoot some dark video of the lights in the nighttime sky with his or her cellphone.
A police officer was actually able to clock the movements of one of the objects with his radar gun, but it was only traveling at 27 mph - presumably not enough for him to pull it over on a speeding charge, more's the pity.

Wonder if the Radar gun had the memory feature that allows you to call up previous "hits"? Seems to me that being able to document a ping, even a 27mph. ping would be important to those who seek to make these sightings more than goofball items in the local news.

I have definitely noticed increased contrail & helicopter activity in the last week. Something is definitely up. The peeps over at Skunkworx don't seem to have pupils anymore, either. Half the folks I bump into at the Racetrac on Collins & 20 are like snooty zombies. Thank the Creator for aluminum foil. [AL-yoo-MIN-um]
