But CBS figures it got its man. Grabbe was interviewed by Stahl at Area 51 in December for the 60 Minutes segment broadcast Sunday on the difference between fact and fiction on the Internet. That's the kind of electronic gossip, according to a local Internet expert, that floats in cyberspace. You have people talking about more subjects than ever before. People are talking.
Talk is cheap.
Grabbe brags that he lured CBS and Stahl to Area 51 after refusing to be interviewed at the network's New York headquarters. I have them on the hook, I insist on doing it at Area 51. They come all the way out to Reno to interview some bar patron. Area 51 is named for the top secret location in southern Nevada where the Air Force conducts test flights of experimental aircraft. CBS searched the net to find Grabbe, who says he tricked the network into believing he is Reno's town crackpot.
