Hi all. Here's an article from the Sunday 12th issue of our
|
|
local newspaper, The Sunday Mail. The article is accompanied by
|
|
an aerial photograph of a sugar-cane field with random,
|
|
flattened cane areas reminiscent of perhaps a cyclone path. The
|
|
cane is not swirled, but appears (the photo is taken from some
|
|
distance) to have fallen from the centre outwards, or just any
|
|
which-way.
|
|
|
|
CANING ALIENS OR SHAPING FUTURE?
|
|
|
|
A more than slightly bemused cane farmer, Jack Walden, arrived
|
|
back at his Sunshine Coast hinterland property at Woombye
|
|
[about 100 klms north of Brisbane.M.W.] yesterday to find his
|
|
bottom cane paddock full of media and flying saucer devotees
|
|
looking for proof that aliens had landed.
|
|
"This is just so enormous! You've got a world first here!"
|
|
an elated George F. Scott of Pomona, a member of the Gympie
|
|
[188 klms north of Brisbane] branch of the Queensland UFO
|
|
Research Bureau, said. [No, I've never met him nor heard of the
|
|
organisation. It is not listed in the telephone directory. It's
|
|
possible that the press have got the name of UFORQ - UFO
|
|
Research Queensland - mixed up. M.W.]
|
|
|
|
Areas of flattened cane on Mr Walden's property are being
|
|
given wildly different interpretations, including a visit from
|
|
aliens.
|
|
"I'd just been to Blackbutt when I got a message that all
|
|
this activity was happening." said Mr. Walden.
|
|
Present in the otherwise empty field were news staff from
|
|
Channels 9 and 10, The Sunday Mail, and two flying saucer
|
|
believers who confessed they were absolutely riveted by what
|
|
they were seeing.
|
|
"Ah well," said Mr. Walden philosophically. "Even if aliens
|
|
have landed, the cane'll harvest all right.
|
|
"Maybe they'll have the technology to make the cane stand
|
|
up because it's a variety, Number 110 we call it, that lodges
|
|
(falls over).
|
|
"I've been cane farming for 23 years and dad's been on the
|
|
property since the early Forties, and we've never seen any
|
|
signs yet of visitors from outer space.
|
|
"But I'm not too worried about killing any aliens when I
|
|
fire the cane."
|
|
Mr. Scott, who was with fellow UFO bureau member Carlo Riva,
|
|
from Traveston, said: "We've just had the most incredible
|
|
experience, the two of us.
|
|
"I've seen a lot of crop circles in the UK and they are very
|
|
precise and symmetrical. What we got in the canefields is
|
|
incredible ... rectangles, they've sculpted the cane." [there
|
|
is no evidence of this in the photograph.]
|
|
And who are they?
|
|
"It's an intelligence from outer space," said Mr. Scott.
|
|
"It's not local people. It's got to be extraterrestrial
|
|
intelligence.
|
|
"It's like somebody's been up with a laser tool and sculpted
|
|
it with a complexity you can't believe.
|
|
"Somehow or other there's a message in these things."
|
|
Mr. Walden said: "If aliens have landed, I might have to get
|
|
a few more cartons of XXXX so I can shout them a drink."
