Was it weather anomaly, or UFO?

Isn’t it ironic how we trust our lives with highly respected people, and then we’re told not to believe their words at the same time?

Case in point, on Nov. 7, 2006, a UFO was observed at O’hare International Airport. Twelve employees from United Airlines to include two pilots, a U.A. manager, a mechanic, and others witnessed a saucer-shaped object hovering 1,900 feet above gate C-17 around 4:30 p.m. Reports were made from the employees for safety concerns. They were later asked to describe and draw what they witnessed. They were instructed to never speak of it again by the FAA. The Chicago Tribune caught wind of the story and asked United what happened. They denied everything ... until the Freedom of Information Act was requested. They told the Tribune that something happened and it was a “weather anomaly”.

Now, I’m not sure about you, but I trust pilots to know more about what’s in our skies then most people. I also doubt 12 people woke up one day and conspired to make up a UFO story and throw away their careers and reputations. If you can’t trust pilots, military, police, and other reports made by credible people, then who can you trust with your lives.

  • Viewpoint: Medical professionals instill confidence

    The reason for this letter is not to inform everyone in town “all about my operation,” but far more importantly, to share my remedial experience — physically and emotionally — with gratitude and appreciation for all components of the entire Saint John’s Cancer Center team.

  • Letter: Public should have say on library space

    As taxpayers, does the public have no say-so what happens with their tax dollars? With some proper schedule management, those existing meeting rooms can fulfill everyone’s needs.

  • Letter: Election fraud tales turn voters away

    Columnist Maureen Hayden asked, “Why did 3 million Hoosiers choose not to vote?” She gave a few reasons but I can think of another one.
    How about election fraud?

  • Letter: Elected officials should buy insurance

    I may be wrong but I thought the city and county were hurting for money, and that’s why services keep getting cut or eliminated. One thing is evident. There is no shortage of money for lawsuits.

  • Letter: Source of inequality is not economic

    The truth of the collapse of a living-wage economy for working-class America is a social catastrophe and, increasingly, a severe embarrassment to free-market ideology.

    Global elitists behind our government have methodically been guiding our government toward the New World Order.

  • Letter: Let’s work through the problems

    On May 14 I attended the county council meeting in hopes that I could understand what is happening in the legislative branch of our Madison County government. What I saw was politics at its worst and I cannot applaud either party.

  • Letter: Columnist Brown ignores truth

    It’s hard to understand why The Herald Bulletin carries columns by Susan Stamper Brown, who has such a blatant disregard for truth in her conservative propaganda.

  • Letter: Taxpayers should thank the ‘few’

    Are those who worry about the loss of the wheel tax concerned about the roads or about their jobs? Most of them could care less about people’s needs.
