Close Encounters Of A Rocky Mountain Kind

In a world filled with naysayers and disbelievers, you have to thank the gods for Jeff Peckman. The Colorado man's previous forays into civic duty found him attempting to legally enforce stress-reduction techniques on the entire city of Denver. Now he's asking the good people of the Mile High City to vote "Yes" on the creation of a commission to deal with the arrival of aliens from outer space. More »
