I thought you all might be interested in the story I wrote. In Burnet, Texas, it's becoming business as usual. It was on March 3, that Ennis native Mark Atwood, managing editor of the Burnet Bulletin published a story concerning a report of a black helicopter spotted flying over Burnet and releasing an unknown white powder on residents below. The concerned resident, Richard Wruble of Burnet, contacted Atwood at the Bulletin and asked for him to investigate the black, unmarked Apache helicopter. Atwood grabbed his camera and soon found the Apache flying away from Burnet.
Zoom lenses are a beautiful thing.
By the time I got to it, it was pretty far away. Atwood, who was a former editor at the Ennis Daily News in the late 1980s, said since the story ran he has become Burnet County's reluctant authority on conspiracy theories. When I ran taht story, I really had no idea what I had gottenn myself into. In the past two months, Atwoods 'quirky and innocent'story has gone national. There is not a five-day work week that goes by that I am not getting a phone call from someone wanting to interview me about this chopper.
