Bucks County is the focus of world wide interest in unidentified flying object sightings. That's according to local UFO enthusiasts who meet monthly in Philadelphia's Fishtown section.
Bob Gardner is state section director of the Mutual UFO Network -- or MUFON. He's an expert on the Bucks County UFO sightings and a regular attendee of the UFO discussion group at the Germ bookshop on Frankford Avenue.
David Williams is the Germ's owner:
“It is a free form, open forum discussion. People can bring up any aspect they'd like to. There's always been a policy of don't laugh at anybody.”
The discussion at the February meeting was freewheeling, indeed, touching on topics such as unidentified submerged objects, Operation Blue Beam -- a secret government project to create a holographic simulation of an alien invasion -- and the Bucks County sightings.
Gardner suggested that Bucks County sightings may be up in part because reporting them is losing its stigma. At least, it feels that way at Germ Books.
