Re: Ha

Having 'seen' something that wasn't there I don't think it would be hard at all. I 'saw' a big cat (Beast of Bodmin style). It was 100% a big cat, slinking through a field about 250 metres from a first floor office window in clear daylight. I called a friend over and said 'Is that a lion or something?' He agreed and we watched for about 2 or 3 minutes in amazement, pretty much cashing the News of the World cheque in advance.

3rd friend then comes into the office with his bird-watching binoculars - and watched the Great Dane happily bound back to it's owner, stick in mouth. The thing was the moment we knew it was a dog, it obviously was a dog, and impossible we ever saw it as a big cat.

I wonder how many of the witnesses were air traffic controllers - you know those people who hang out in towers in the middle of airfields and have binoculars on their desk?
