Rob Riggs's book, <i>In the Big Thicket,</i> ch. 2, describes mystery lights around the world, and persons who investigate them scientifically, such as prof. Yoshi-Hiko Ohtsuki, who is chairman of the Int'l. Comm. for Ball Lightning/Fireball Research.

Whee! Thanks for the correction, DDA. A friend sent me the doctored photo, thinking it was genuine. I should have realized it was unlikely for an Alaskan to own a swimming pool.

I've read that generating stations sometimes get stressed and "slip a pole"--I think that's the term. I've forgotten all the details. However, the effect on the receiving end would be that the normal up and down cycle of current would hiccup and lack smoothness, perhaps causing a restart to your...

Whee! Get ready to dance!

There may also be a connection to Bigfoot, according to Rob Riggs, author of In the Big Thicket: On the Track of the Wild Man (2001), especially Ch. 2, on "The Ghost Light." Here's a quote from pages 21 & 22: "'That damned light was alive.' Jim's voice expressed both conviction and...

Here's my theory about Kal's employment at that nuclear lab: He worked there, but not as an employee. Instead, he was a temp, or contract worker, or consultant. That would fit what's known. I hope McConnell will ask him if that was the case. I have another split-the-difference theory about his...

If the phone company hasn't destroyed its 1997 records--and I think the old ones are kept in storage on tape--then Wilson could ask to see his call-records for the month in question, in order to show that he made no call to Mitchell. OTOH, if he did make a call to Mitchell, he'd have some...

In addition to asking Mitchell about whether and when Haut was one of his informants, he should also be asked for the names of any other informants who have now passed on--and the approximate dates when they divulged their information to him. Such supporting testimony would be quite important.

Here is a link (courtesy of C2C) to a sets the record straight" interview with Mitchell by Lisa Bonnice of BlogTalkRadio: http://www.ufodigest.com/news/0708/record-straight-print.html In it, Mitchell disavows receiving information from NASA, but has this to say about Roswell: "My information...

Thanks a lot. But didn't you mean to say, "according to" Steven Greer? Also, that information sounds different from what I heard Mitchell discuss on Larry King, which was that some different Navy honcho (I assume an admiral), seeking to dispel Mitchell's belief in UFO's, checked to see if any...

This is being heavily discussed on Above Top Secret. Some scoffers there are claiming this is "old news" because he's been saying things like this for years. I don't think that's true--my impression is that the first time he was as specific as this was when he was on Larry King recently and...

I'm surprised there hasn't been more discussion of this case. Perhaps the switch to new software has caused many members to be unable to log in. I saw a replay of the Larry King show on YouTube. Shostak seemed to be trying to shove the flying saucer interpretation off the table by emphasizing...

I can top that: It's a WooDoo WingDing!

Here's their attitude in a nutshell: Pix or Nix.
