- Comment: created in sandbox only 24th March before it was moved to mainspace on 25 March. I'm still working on it aiming to fill the daya by over this weekend as I'm reviewing some 1,000 newspaper sources about it.

ALT2 has just come to light as I continue to work through the sources to me its a powerful message and a trigger of imagination that DYK benefits from.
