The question-and-answer period went on for a full day as the scientists dug into the details of the general facts I had given them in my briefing. The following day and a half was devoted to reviewing and discussing fifty of our best sighting reports that we had classed as "Unknowns."
You'll probably want to ram some of my arguments down my throat I know there is no star near enough for the journey to be made in anything less than a couple of generations by all that's logical; and they'd freeze in the interstellar cold doing it. There is no known star close enough but how about unknowns?" "What have they been doing with the star?" Morey snorted. "Hiding it behind a sun-shade?"
Now, there is perfect fairness in all this. The public know the persons who agree to take the full responsibility; they know also the amount of money put into their hands by other parties. In deciding whether they shall deal or not with this body, they are not perplexed by mysterious visions of possible rich unknowns who may be brought in for the company's obligations.
The last of the six was just leaving him after this process had been completed, when Mr Dexter called him back. "That is not all," he said, suspiciously. "Yes, sir," said the last of the unknowns. Neither of the Irishmen recognised the voice. Its owner was a stranger to them. "I tell you it is not," snapped Mr Dexter. "You are concealing the truth from me.
And e'en though I know not your identity, still I may sense your fond confusion. And yet why blush, dear unknowns? 'Tis in the air to-night. Even I myself have yielded to spirit of frivolity. Two hours ago I appeared masked in these dingy vestments as Love's Young Dream; but with me the mood has passed.
Using answers like these, or similar ones, to explain the UFO reports is an expedient method of getting the percentage of unknowns down to zero, but it is no more valid than turning the hands of a clock ahead to make time pass faster. Twice before the riddle of the UFO has been "solved," only to have the reports increase in both quantity and quality.
If the letters reporting UFO sightings were counted, the total would rise to twenty or thirty a day. The majority of the reports that came in by wire could be classified as being good. They were reports made by reliable people and they were full of details. Some were reports of balloons, airplanes, etc., but the percentage of unknowns hovered right around 22 per cent.
My dear child, you are as niggardly with your philanthropies as you are with your favours. Why not be generous with me? And, by the way, can you tell me just why that young fellow appealed to you so? I daresay other 'unknowns' drift into St. Albans." "He looked you will think me foolish, Mr. Boswell but he looked like some one I once knew in Kenmore."
So they all go up again into the gorgeous drawing-rooms all of them flushed with breakfast, as having taken scarlatina sociably and there the combined unknowns do malignant things with their legs to ottomans, and take as much as possible out of the splendid furniture.
In a few days the Danby UFO left and it never came back. Nineteen hundred fifty-eight was not a record year for UFO's. The 590 reports received didn't stack up to the 1178 for 1957, or the 778 for 1956, or the 918 for 1952. But a new record was set when the percentage of unknowns was pared down to a new low.
