Polls indicate that about two percent of Americans believe that they
have been abducted by aliens. I believe the population of the US is
what, five or six percent rural (whatever the correct percentage I am
off in my estimates, I feel confident that they are WELL within the
error levels acceptable to a UFOlogist). Following the reasoning of "J
or N," there must be an abduction rate of something like twenty percent
or better from rural areas. I wonder what percentage of abductees were
named "Bubba"?
