Check out the recent article from Space.com 'Meteorite' Crash Breeds Mass Hysteria. It looks like I might have a future in professional psychological speculation. (You can read my original post "Meteorite Sickens Peruvian Villagers" here.)
Then again, what if that is what they want us to think? I mean, I haven't actually been down to the crash site. And where are all of the sick villagers now? Is this a cover up for a global conspiracy about alien viruses, and if not, a highly advanced weapon that is not supposed to exist? This could be a case for Scully and Mulder. Or not.
Would anyone else like to throw in a conspiracy theory or two? This is one of my favorite ways to waste time at work.

Meteorite Sickens Peruvian Villagers
The AFP reported that the meteor crash occurred over the weekend in Peru. Observers initially believed that they were witnessing a plane crash. After the impact, as strange odor apparently caused a rash of health complaints among the residents living near to a crash site. Read the full story here.
Could it be a result of the shock of such an extraordinary event that caused the villagers some sort of mass hysteria? Or perhaps, the meteor kicked up some toxic material that previously sat dormant in the ground. However, if you think about it, cosmic dust is known for its interesting effects on humans. Well, if you ever watched the t.v. show Smallville, you would agree.
Speaking of strange symptoms. I finally worked out why my head is so stuffy and throat so store. No, it's not a meteorite that hit my neighborhood. It's a construction crew that's landed right beneath my feet. Our apartment is full of dust- I can't see it but I can smell something new in the air- and it is irritating my throat and eyes. And the noise! Their voices are a little to clear for my liking and each time they hammer or move a piece of wood, my apartment experiences a little earthquake. It's headache inducing as well. I can only hope that they are installing a whole lot of sound proofing because this could easily turn into a nightmare apartment once the new commercial tenants move in down there.
