In the middle of British Columbia lives a most interesting man. His name is Brian Vike and for years he has managed a web site where people could talk about strange happenings. People have told stories of UFOs, missing time, strange lights, ghosts and Sasquatch sightings. He also has done many radio shows on the topic. Because of health difficulties he has gone from his web site to doing a blog, The Vike Factor. Here people can still write in with strange stories. Now the reason I've sent a "Nicer Place to Live" card to Brian is not so much for what he does, as for how he does it. He responds to everyone with sincere interest and kindness. He has provided people with a place to tell their stories where they will not be ridiculed and laughed at. He is a very down to earth man and quite aware that many, perhaps most, of the stories have logical explanations. It does not seem to matter to him if the stories are misunderstandings, obviously make believe or wonderful examples of the paranormal. He treats every person with respect. For that he deserves thanks.
The picture I've included with this submission is specially for Brian. Unfortunately the quality is not too good as it is a photo of my photo. If you look to the right of the rainbow you can see (with a little imagination) , peeking over the hill, the face of my very own space alien! Appropriately, just beyond the hill is the little town of Rachel, Nevada and the entrance to Area 51.
