to the defense personel guarding Area 51. Maybe he decided to try flying over it like I sometimes think about.

I apologize if this seems nutty, my common sense and grammar usually go to hell at 1:30
Let me guess, we didn't actually land on the moon?
Oh, and 9/11 was actually planned and carried out by the CIA.

Its possible he decided to adventure into area 51 ( i wouldnt be surprised ), lots of people have recorded military warnings near area 51, its nothing new.

He probably crashed from boredom. driving on the 80 thru nevada is the worst. FLYING through nevada is the worst...
