Alfie Carrington doesn’t believe in UFO’s. His obsession is science fiction. Inspired by avionic pioneers, Orville and Wright, Alfie has invested nearly $60,000 for the materials he believes are needed to make this vehicle work. What you’re seeing in the photograph is a prototype of his version of the Jetson’s car, which he hopes will replace traditional automobiles one day.

“Why drive when you can fly 500 m.p.h.?” he asked.

That’s a chilling thought, considering that many people have problems driving 50mph.

Kathy Strain, archaeologist for the Stanislaus National Forest, has been obsessed with Bigfoot ever since she watched “The Legend of Boggy Creek.” She was about seven years old at the time. Sixteen years later, she has yet to see the elusive sasquatch, although she claims that she came close enough to see the trees moving and to catch fresh footprints.

Her husband, a retired firefighter named Bob, claims to have seen one through the lens of his rifle while on a hunting expedition in Idaho in 1975. He watched it from 400 yards away and let it escape. That’s his story. Had he shot and killed the creature, he would have gained solid proof of Bigfoot’s existence and catapulted himself into fame.

So far, no one has stumbled upon a carcass of Bigfoot, which leaves many people skeptical of its existence. An animal that big doesn’t die without leaving evidence.

France’s National Space Studies Centre (CNES) plans to publish its UFO archive online, which dates back 30 years, to the public by mid-March. Their archive consists of 6,000 reports, many relating to 1,600 incidents and filed by the public as well as airline officials. Nick Pope, former head of the Ministry of Defense’s UFO projects division, said that although CNES is still keeping many of their reports under wraps, the public can gain access to them “over time” by using the Freedom of Information Act.

Popular TV clairvoyant, Sylvia Browne appeared on The Montel Williams Show in February 2003, four months after 11 year-old Shawn Hornbeck vanished. His parents, Pam and Craig Akers, were desperate to find clues to Shawn’s whereabouts. But Browne didn’t give them good news. She told them that she believed that Shawn was dead.

In her vision, she saw his body lying in the woods between two large jagged boulders, some 20 miles from his Richwoods, Missouri home. She even gave a description of the murderer: a dark skinned man that might be Hispanic, with long dread locks. Search teams redirected their efforts, only to find nothing.

According to Wayne Evans of the Shawn Hornbeck Foundation, Browne called Shawn’s parents about a month after the show to offer another sitting for a hefty fee of $700 per half hour. Browne adamantly denies this, stating that she never charges for missing child cases.

Four years later, Shawn was found alive and well. His abductor wasn’t a Hispanic man with long dreadlocks, but a 300-pound white man named Michael Devlin, who abducted another boy last week. Much to everyone’s relief and chagrin, Sylvia Browne was way off her mark and both boys are safe.

Despite the double happy ending, Browne’s blunders may damage the hard-won respect that other psychic detectives are trying to gain from law enforcement as well as the public.
