REF: IIR

1. FOR BETTER OR WORSE, I HAVE TOLD THAT I WOULD FORWARD TO WASHINGTON THE INFO AVAILABLE ON THE UNIDENTIFIED FLYING OBJECT (UFO) OBSERVED HERE--TO SEE WHETHER THE USG MIGHT BE ABLE TO SUGGEST ANY FEASIBLE EXPLANATION(S). TESTING HIS SENSE OF HUMOR, I SUGGESTED THE UFO MIGHT HAVE BEEN AN EXPERIMENTAL MISSILE LAUNCHED BY QADHAFI. FORTUNATELY, PASSED THE TEST.

2. NOT KNOWING WHAT OFFICE OR AGENCY SHOULD BE SADDLED WITH THIS RESPONSIBILITY, WE HEREBY AWARD IT TO YOU, ASKING THAT YOU PASS THE QUERY TO SOME ONE WHO MIGHT BE ABLE TO TELL US SOMETHING. IF POSSIBLE, I WOULD LIKE TO HAVE SOME ADVICE THAT WOULD BE RELEASE-ABLE TO HIM. AN INTERIM RESPONSE WOULD BE MUCH APPRECIATED. REGARDS. ADMIN
