UFO enthusiasts are calling for a monument to be erected in West Lothian, home to one of the UK's most notorious sightings.
The spotting, in Livingston, led to Britain's only criminal case to arise from an apparent alien encounter.
Now, the Scottish Earth Mysteries Research (SEMR) group has started a campaign to have the location officially recognised.
The group's UFO buffs reckon the monument would become a popular tourist attraction and would be a fitting tribute to the man who had the so-called "extraterrestrial" encounter.
Bob Taylor died in 2007, aged 88. In November 1979, the forestry worker parked his truck at Livingston's Dechmont Law and left to walk his dog.
He claimed that he saw a large, spherical object, around 20 foot wide. Two smaller spheres then dropped from the craft, rolled towards him and attached themselves to his trousers.
The next thing Mr Taylor said he remembered was waking up with a pounding head, a sore throat and a bitter taste in his mouth. He said he calculated later that he had been unconscious for 20 minutes.
Police treated the incident as assault, but said the case left them baffled.
SEMR members say the case is most believable because Mr Taylor had never been interested in UFOs prior to his encounter and was thus unlikely to have made the experience up.
They plan to mark the 30th anniversary of the sighing at the site on Monday.
Full Version: Call For West Lothian Ufo Monument
I wonder if there are any medical records available?
The whole area is a hot spot; from one end of the A71 to the other has a story to tell. There have been several abductions, lots of sightings and is a military hot spot with underground bases. Before my abduction I would laugh at such stories but believe me it is not something to laugh about. I have and still do search the area for UFO and military goings on ,ET is here on the ground and I believe them to be working hand in hand with the military mainly the USAF I do not even bother to look up at the night sky anymore looking for ET . I have had four encounters with ET one was the abduction that I have no real memory off and the other three where on the ground no abduction. I have had fake arrests, black 4by 4s, black helicopters, followed every where bla bla bla by the usual government and military morons and believe me they are as thick as two short planks. I am now 53 years old and should be relaxing ready for retirement but instead I am living in the twilight zone and not via choice, so to all the tourists that want to find ET I would advise they found a different interest such as golf or they may find themselves living in a nightmare so forget monuments and the romantic garbage as the reality is a totally different ball game.
sorry A70 NOT A71
near enough the Falkirk Triangle for me
