I heard a brief mention on the radio a week or two ago that one of thieir 'mother ships' had been located and stopped. No more real details.

Its a news cycle thing. Right now theire caught up in the middle east looking the other way as it were.

Its like when a light plane crash makes the headlines. All of a sudden it would seem there is a flurry of light plane crashes when the truth is they happen all the time. Its just 'trendy' to report them at this time.

I watched on a weather channel the other day a live report of a tornado forming. It was pretty damn cool they actually filmed the storm form send down little feelers and finally it formed one helluva tornadoe.

A pretty decent story at the time. But now that channel is all tornado all the time practically running the pre-recorded footage 24 hours a day. In fact you had to go to another channel to get the actual weather.

Maby they lost popularity with people... so the news shifted to a story people would watch more.
