0:00.0	I'm Laura Norton, and this is one strange thing, the show where we search the nation's news archives for stories that can't quite be explained.
0:20.0	And if I sound a little funny today?
0:26.0	No, I have not been possessed.
0:28.3	I have a cold, but we must bring you your entertainment.

1:34.8	But that's technically a story for another episode.
1:39.0	Our episode, actually, one that already exists, so scroll back a few.
1:45.0	Moving on. Over the course of the show, we've brought you what the UFO Handbook,
1:52.0	a guide to investigating, evaluating, and reporting UFO sightings, describes as close encounters
1:59.0	of the first type, folks who've cited UFOs.
