Art Bell reads a breaking Associated Press report from Roswell, New Mexico, where a metal shard delivered to the local UFO museum is undergoing analysis at the New Mexico Institute of Mining and Technology. The fragment, described as copper plated with silver with holes caused by catastrophic forces, was submitted by a local citizen who claims it originated from the 1947 crash cleanup. Art Bell announces that a scanned photograph of the metal is now available on his website for public examination.
The program continues with open line discussion spanning the ongoing Montana Freemen standoff, the Riverside County police beating of illegal immigrants, and the death of Commerce Secretary Ron Brown in a plane crash near Dubrovnik. Art Bell fields the program's first call from the Philippines on the new international toll-free line, as well as a call from a man living in Belize for eight dollars a night who listens on a Sony Walkman in a hammock. A caller from Lincoln, Nebraska, claims to live on the prairie for three dollars a day.
Art Bell debates immigration policy with regular caller Charlie, a self-described liberal who works in U.S. Customs, while maintaining that securing the border with a wall and electronic surveillance remains constitutionally sound and practically achievable.
