This is a story that you won't believe. Not that there's anything really incredible about it. Doesn't have to do with ghosts or foreign spies or flying saucers.

In fact, there isn't a single element of the mysterious or the unusual in the entire episode. It's a story that could take place in any city or town in America. It could, but unfortunately, most people think it couldn't.

And that's why you probably won't believe it. It all began about a year ago. I was driving through the southern part of the state on my way back to the capital, where I work for one of the big dailies as a political reporter.

I guess I have driven through Rodneyville at least a dozen times without ever paying much attention to it. It's a little town, more than six, seven thousand people. Normally I wouldn't give Rodney Bill change for a quarter, but that day my engine was heating up, so I pulled into an old filling station and honked my horn.

Hee hee hee hee hee. Nothing. I glanced around for the antique, gasoline, hand-pung. Honked again. Hee hee hee hee. Still nothing. I just about decided to drive on and fill my radiator someplace else when the screen door, the shack, flew open, And a small middle-aged woman wearing dungarees hurried out.
