Notes

  • Author's note:

    On 29th December 1980 two American women, Betty Cash, Vickie Landrum, and Vickie’s seven-year-old grandson Colby Landrum, were driving near Dayton Texas, when they saw a brilliantly lit, diamond shaped UFO on the road ahead of their car. Convinced that she was seeing the second coming of Jesus Cash approached the object, which belched forth flames and rose into the air, flying off pursued by helicopters. All three showed symptoms of serious radiation poisoning. Cash and Landrum unsuccessfully sued the US Airforce.
