Através do Rui Carmo chego a esta noticia que dá conta que numa pacata vila italiana alguns fenómenos estão a ser imputados aos pobres dos extraterrestres pelas autoridades da zona. Aliens were responsible for a series of unexplained fires in fridges, TV’s and mobile phones in an Italian village, according to an Italian government report.
Mas claro que os extraterrestres não foram os primeiros a quem foi apontado o dedo (não passaria pela cabeça de ninguém no seu perfeito juizo), antes disso:
Locals were quick to blame supernatural forces and at the time the Vatican’s chief exorcist Father Gabriele Amorth backed up their fears and said: "I’ve seen things like this before. Demons occupy a house and appear in electrical goods. Let’s not forget that Satan and his followers have immense powers."
Forças demoniacas, lá está... seria também a minha primeira opção, mas após apurada investigação parece que está quase decidido:
Now in an interim leaked report published by several Italian newspapers it has emerged that the Civil Protection Department has concluded the most likely cause was "aliens".
Mas há sempre quem procure evitar o óbvio:
Francesco Mantegna Venerando, Sicily’s Civil Protection chief who coordinated the report, said: "This is not the final report. We are still working on our conclusions and this has been leaked.
"We are not saying that little green men from Mars started the fires but that unnatural forces capable of creating a large amount of electromagnetic energy were responsible.
"This is just one possibility we are also looking at another one which involves the testing of top secret weapons by an unknown power which are also capable of producing an enormous amount of energy."
Projecto ultra-secreto de teste de armas por um poder desconhecido... anda, anda, vamos parar ao programa nuclear do Irão... mas o que vale é que o processo de investigação ainda só custou "£1 million", pode ser que as receitas do turismo geradas com esta operação de marketing ainda garanta um resultado positivo.
