Somebody in New York City is taking the UFO phenomenon seriously.
Finally: NYC Has Its Own Hotline For UFO Sightings
A Brooklyn man has started a 24-hour UFO hotline, empowering NYers to testify to their close encounters with freaky creatures who don't live off the
L. "How is anybody going to report this stuff if everyone is discouraging them? I'm looking at witnesses as a resource rather than someone to slam
around," founder Joe Capp told the Post. We're relieved, since for too long, NYers have had nowhere to go with their dramatic tales and footage of
unidentified objects...except for all the dallies, countless UFO websites and message boards, etc.
Capp, a retired computer consultant in Sheepshead Bay, started the hotline in February, and says he's fielded nearly two dozen calls already. He says
the most memorable sighting he's received has been from a woman who spotted three lights moving in unison in the sky over Park Slope, which sounds a
lot like a Williamsburg sighting from March, which was also seen the previous two years.
Capp and the phoneline are part of the "NY UFO Meeting Group"—on their UFO Media Matters site, they say they advocate for UFO witnesses to be
treated "fairly and with respect." About the hotline, they write: "If you wish to talk someone or have us document your sightings or paranormal
activity please call us. All calls are held in [strict] confidence." The number is: (347)-298-9020. At least one member of the group is happy to find
new ways of connecting with fellow UFO enthusiasts, whether they be terrestrials or extraterrestrials: "It's good to hear shared experiences," said
group member Julio Barriere, who the Post adds, "said he sees UFOs any time the sky is clear."

It will be interesting to see if New Yorkers treat this seriously.
