CRAIG CONLEY (Prof. Oddfellow) is recognized by Encarta as “America’s most creative and diligent scholar of letters, words and punctuation.” He has been called a “language fanatic” by Page Six gossip columnist Cindy Adams, a “cult hero” by Publisher’s Weekly, a “monk for the modern age” by George Parker, and “a true Renaissance man of the modern era, diving headfirst into comprehensive, open-minded study of realms obscured or merely obscure” by Clint Marsh. An eccentric scholar, Conley’s ideas are often decades ahead of their time. He invented the concept of the “virtual pet” in 1980, fifteen years before the debut of the popular “Tamagotchi” in Japan. His virtual pet, actually a rare flower, still thrives and has reached an incomprehensible size. Conley’s website is OneLetterWords.com.

"What a poor soul is the late-20th-century citizen. Perhaps we see flying saucers and aliens now because we can't see angels anymore." From UFO Newsclipping Service, 1992.
You'll have spotted the issue here. They'll use blimps to search for the Loch Ness Monster, and then when UFOs swarm around Nessie the authorities will claim that the blimps were misidentified. Classic coverup! From UFO Newsclipping Service, 1982. See How to Spot the Loch Ness Monster Every Time.
