The clock change is odd. A few thoughts:
1) Could be human error - but it was a family, so that may lower the odds of human error.
2) It was a human drone with new tech (that messed with the clock in the car).
3) It is a UFO (i.e. 4D tech) that has either:
a) changed it's camouflage/appearance (perhaps based on the collective subconscious idea of 'drones') to include sound.
b) has bled through way more than usual, and does in our environment emit sound.
I'd kind of like it to be 3.
Harrison and I were talking recently about the historical record of UFOs and how, at periods in history when these things were seen ("flaps" or whatever) and human aircraft existed, the UFOs took the shape of (or were
perceived to take the shape of) craft that were extant at the time or, any craft that the closest approximation for the people of the day, or of the first widely disseminated impressions of eyewitnesses.
For example, there were many sightings of anomalous "airships" or "balloons" during flaps pre-aviation when only 'blimps' were known. There's even an old in report in one of keel's books of an eyewitness seeing a ship slowly 'sailing' across the sky not far above a small church. The 'ship' was trailing an anchor that got stuck on the bell tower of the church and a man in silver suit climbed over the side and 'swam' through the air, down to the anchor, detached it, 'swam' back up and 'sailed off'.
On January 25, 1878, the
Denison Daily News printed an article in which John Martin, a local farmer, reported an object resembling a balloon flying "at wonderful speed". The newspaper said it appeared to be about the size of a saucer from his perspective, one of the first uses of the word "saucer" in association with a UFO, used to describe the size rather than the shape.
Then of course you have the modern 'saucers', which is a result of the first widely reported sighting of a UFO in 1947 by news media for the objects pilot Kenneth Arnold claimed flew alongside his airplane above Washington State. Thereafter, everyone saw 'saucers'. That said, fantasy artwork in pulp magazines depicted flying discs as early as the late 1920s. One of the first depictions of a "flying saucer", by illustrator Frank R. Paul appeared on the cover of the November 1929 issue of Hugo Gernsback's pulp science fiction magazine
Science Wonder Stories. This may suggest a seeding of the idea of saucers into the public mind via 'artistic types'.
Anyway, today, we have drones. And so...
