"The monkeys are eating my brain," Michael had screamed on the day he was accepted to Yale Law School, the New York Post reported. But when he considered taking a job as a salesclerk at Macy's incredibly busy store in New York City, his father immediately saw the dangers. Go to law school instead, his father advised him.

While the panel's report, to be published Monday, emphasizes that it has found no convincing evidence of extra-terrestrial intelligence, it recommends the study of significant physical evidence such as burns, radiation, radar images and the recurring appearance of strange lights.
