The journalist in me suspects something along the lines of, say, perhaps
cashing in on the current wave of public fascination with UFO's... Was this
a coincidence? ID4 number one movie last year, 50th anniversary of Roswell,
the X files the most covered television show in eons, and the household
recognition of "abductee" and "Area 51"? Combine that with the manner in
which the "mainstream" media has come to ubiquitously report on UFO
related phenomena... And bang... You got a bestseller, hopefully.

Then again, I'm a film journalist. Most of the people I interview are shameless
self promoters who only wish to make money on whatever story they've come
up with. I doubt the UFO world is like this at all.

Though I gotta say, that "dummies" story rings a bit odd... I wouldn't be
surprised if quite soon a military report is declassified in which it is revealed
the Air Force planned to use "vertically challenged" soldiers as covert
operatives dumped on Japan via balloons. Or some such... Perhaps in
an effort to boost morality they hoped to deliver blow up dolls to soldiers
stuck in trenches? Anyone have any literature that might expose such
a scandalous waste of government money?
