the buzz log
Will this summer's "X-Files" movie spur interest in real-life aliens and unidentified flying objects? It may not have to. The British government beat agents Mulder and Scully to the punch by releasing a treasure trove of secret files on UFO activity.
A post from Wired.com explains that the documents cover the period from 1978 to 1987, and touch on saucers seen by police, military personal, and all those regular folks who believe in little green men. Buzz on the article has been scant, but we expect that to change once folks learn they can download these secret files for free. So much for government cover-ups.
In the spirit of the news, we rounded up the top 10 UFO searches from the past 7 days. Study them closely, because as Agent Mulder always says, "the truth is out there."
