Town centre brought to a halt by UFOs

More than 100 people had a close encounter of the X-Files kind when they saw five unexplained flying objects hovering over a town centre. Dozens of people spilled out of a pub to watch the spectacle – with one likening it to the Hollywood sci-fi blockbuster Independence Day.

Hillary Potter, from the British Earth Aerial Mystery Society, said it was rare for such phenomena to be witnessed by so many people.

Hillary who?

I vote broomsticks. Get in the Obliviators from the Department of Magical Accidents and Catastrophes.

'Tis the season for corn circles - but with floods over the west of England the poor aliens can't find anywhere to land their saucers.

I often wonder what the sources of these episodes are but I have to say it doesn't capture my imagination much beyond that. Interestingly though, all the weird stuff i've seen in the skies around here has been seen from beer gardens, from the unexplained smoke ring alien attackers to the cool break-up in atmosphere of a satellite or meteor...

I want to know is there a word for people who study Ufologists? UFO's like ghosts catch my interest slightly but I'm far more facinated by the trends in the watchers of both subjects.
What reports say seems far more reliant on social trends rather than what people see.

Except without the widespread destruction of national monuments, or Randy Quaid in a fighter.
