Fire in the Sky - Travis Walton Encounter

[Azrael 5]

Why do I hate them so much I ask myself (since nobody else will). I dunno. I guess I'm just lack-toes intolerant.

Clever!! And funny!

Hmmm, David Hasselhoff ... who knew he was an alien?

What's terrifying is to imagine what might have happened after the female placed the mask over Walton's face and he went unconscious.

What the heck is androgynous man staring at so intently? Why does this look like the beginning of a very creepy and confusing porn flick?

There is a female in the story, but she looks like this:

Aaaaaaah! Aliens!

Oh... my... GOD! They look like Donnie and Marie Osmond!

IIRC Mike Rogers was in terrible financial shape. He was way behind with his Forest Service contract and was about to be fired. I also, believe he was being fined for being late with his contract. The UFO story is believed to be a diversion.

Yep...those are the facts...

Rogers had contracted with the Service to thin out the Turkey Springs area over a year before Walton's experience. He won the contract when he submitted the low bid of $24.70/acre in June of 1974. The contract term was 200 working days ("working days" to allow for bad weather and the long mountain winter) to thin 1277 acres, later reduced to 1205 acres. Rogers was seriously behind schedule and in fact had received an eighty-four day extension (accompanied with a $1.00 per acre penalty for missing the completion date). Only five days of this extension remained at the time of Walton's alleged abduction. At the time of Walton's disappearance, Rogers was in serious trouble: he had over a hundred acres left to finish in five days or he would default on the contract and lose some $2500 -- money sorely needed to get through the winter months -- or he request a second extension and accept another penalty for failing to finish on schedule a second time.
