James, your diplomacy knows no bounds, and you are clearly destined for
high office. Me and the boys have decided you should be one of us. Your
title of "Ptarmigan" will be confirmed in due course by Dr Boylan.

Am I the only one to have the thought cross his mind (never a long journey,
it is true) that all Lee Shargel is doing is just *taking the piss* and
seeing how far he can go putting the mockers on soi-disant ufologists before
*finally* someone notices the huge smirk all over his cuckoo-like features?

Yours knowingly
