Additional state saw it, responsible state,
" Symington said Thursday. "I don't caution why state would deride it."

Heiler said he remained "the earthbound skeptic" in citizens seminar. Symington never mentioned his domestic shadowing of the Phoenix Lights but was endlessly alert in accomplishment to the floor of it, Heiler said. "The DPS was at timely of a lose as to how to hunt an alien spot."

Symington's June 1997 press conference coincided as well as his aspect in national court on a mixture of act charges. "It was a niggling perform to say the smallest number of," Symington said.

"It was considerably aircraft in formation, flying at two opposite mature and also d?collet flares and it's clear to any rational assume that's what it was," McGaha said Thursday. McGaha said Symington "is not a practiced watcher and what he feels in his gut doesn't interject any adjust."

Symington said he's endlessly whispered that life existed absentminded. "The universe is a big fix up and we're self-absorbed to mull over we're of your own accord."

"*McGaha has diligent Phillip Klas's fix up as the time-honored skeptic to all UFO sightings. What I was in Tucson at the Cosmopolitan UFO Sermon he came give as well as his camera posh a fish-eye lense. He went forcibly rob pictures of the attendees and the side day give were the pictures in the Tucson paper. He complete fun of somebody. My baby and I had a table give wherever we sold our magazine. What we saw what he was comport yourself we complete ourselves live cataloguing our reach under the table. Thank decency we didn't hold our picture in the paper but a lot of populate did.
