Hi Rick,

When I see you at the spring meeting, I will tell you more about what
happened when Arthur and I were driving to Lewiston. Just ahead of us
something landed in a field, but it was not like anything we have ever seen
before. What happened after that was even more incredible. Arthur agreed
that it was ok to tell you because your e-mail is probably secure and no one
else will ever see this message.

Tom
