98 When my light flashed on those phosphorescent numbers set in that true blackness of a country night, I knew the ee ee Oo ee numbers were a signal to me. “Wow. I’ve got to get out of here.” I spoke the words aloud and then prayed for help. I drove on, and by some miracle, in only seconds I was on the highway. How I found that highway I'll never know. Each new thing I learned about the aliens came from the people I interviewed or chatted with after our business transactions. I was once able to get a major account from a farmer in the Durant, Oklahoma area. After I’d sold him a painting we both relaxed. When I questioned him about UFO activity, he talked about a mysterious red ball of light that zipped around their house then came through the wall of the house to whiz through all the rooms, terrorizing his c 1 family.
