I saw an alien as a boy...


When I was 11 my best friend and I would shoot bb guns in the Rock Creak area of Twin Falls, Idaho. One spring while searching through the water filled foundation of an old house I saw what appeared to be a human hand with a tail zoom through the water. Astounded, puzzled, and slightly freaked out, we chased it through the foundations. Running home we told friends and family who thought we were playing them. 25 years later I was vindicated by the 9 year study of Dana Quinney who discovered a new species of Fairy shrimp an extraordinarly large version of sea-monkey in 1996 and only recently made official. I have since contected Ms.Quinney and much to her delight shared my story.
