Episode Description from the Publisher

In tonight's dead letter, Daniel, a self-described skeptic writes in about the one thing he's never been able to explain away. He was a third-grader in northeast Washington in 1985, riding home one evening, when an intense green light blinded him and his mom in their car. For years he figured he'd made it up, or pulled it from some movie. Then it came up years later over lunch with his sister, and he found out he wasn't the only one in the car who never forgot it.REFERENCE LINKSWhen Mysterious Green Fireballs Worried the U.S. Government — HISTORYProject Twinkle and the Green Fireball InvestigationThe Green Flash: What Causes the Rare Sunset Phenomenon — EarthSkyFairchild Air Force Base History — HistoryLink.orgFaded Giant by Robert Salas and James KlotzThe 1967 Malmstrom Missile Shutdown — CUFON ArchiveRobert Hastings — UFOs and NukesAstonishing Legends Ep. 155: Abduction at Devil's Den (Terry Lovelace)We're looking for more stories!
