Subject: Ten Strangest Stories of 1990
Date: 31 Dec 90 06:18:16 GMT
From: Roger Black <rblack@shemtaia.weeg.uiowa.edu>
The December 30 Des Moines Register has an article on the 'ten strangest
news stories' of 1990, as compiled by Strange Magazine. They include a
number of interesting items, including Crop Circles, a 500-pound Chinese
'wild man' (pursued but never captured), a rain of fish in Australia, and
an exploding cactus in Arizona.
The following stories, however, are probably of greatest interest here:
(7) The 'Thing in the window' video. "On Halloween 1989, Gina Jones and
her husband viewed orange lights in a 'W' formation outside their
Greenville, S.C., home. Gina Jones videotaped the lights. When they
played back the tape, they found that the camera recorded a small alien-
like figure scurrying past the lit bathroom window at the southwest
corner of her house. It was a biped about 2 feet tall, with its arms
held up as if to cover its face. 'It's not a cat, it's not a squirrel,
it's not a bird ... Everybody laughs at me until they see the tape,' she
says.'
(9) Japanese anti-gravity device. 'Scientists Hideo Hayasaka and Sakae
Takeuchi of Tohoko University have claimed that their special gyroscope,
when spun between 3,000 and 13,000 rpm, lost between 20-millionths and
60-millionths of its 11.3-ounce weight, violating the laws of physics.
Senior scientists cannot prove them wrong and have asked for a repeat of
the experiment: If it's true, the discovery could lead to invention of
an anti-gravity device.'
(10) UFO propulsion in the Stealth bomber. 'Former NASA mission
specialist Robert Oechsler said this year, 'The Stealth bomber you see
flying around actually had its primary propulsion system removed from a
recovered flying saucer.' He said his sources are highly placed
intelligence officers and also claimed to have received information from
a physicist who does government work at a secret Nevada lab. This
physicist says he has seen the crashed UFOs and states that some have
been put back together and successfully flown.'

Please try harder to resist, Mike. These things found their way into
the media as cutesy-cutesy news items. My theory is that these are
actually a new strain of insight-resistant viruses.

Just wanted you to know that we got the ParaNet Newsletter 342,
which was just as great as ParaNet Newsletter 341, perhaps
even better here at Cleveland Free-Net (216-368-3888). Any-
ways, I approved the message to the files and general section
of the UFOlogy Sig. The files section so that it can be
saved and the general section so that people can comment on it.
Thanks again,

As you have noticed, we are now linked in with our digest to
the Cleveland Free-Net. The Free-Net is a site in
Cleveland, Ohio which offers many different sigs. Dale
Wedge and Rick Dell'Aquila are the sysops of this and I am
most happy to have them here. Welcome.
We have also appointed John Burke as ParaNet's legal
counsel. John comes to us from Chicago, Illinois and is
actively involved with ParaNet. John is a fine addition to
our group as ParaNet continues to grow. John is a
litigation attorney in the Chicago area. Welcome John!

First, I thought I'd let the gang in on a little research I did a few
nights ago when I was bored. I called one of the BBSs listed in the
Resonant Gravity Field Coil file I mentioned, and logged in as GUEST.
(Smart move, as it turns out.) I went to the file section and looked for
the file, and it was dated sometime in early November. So it's probably
contemporary (though not necessarily, because they were in 'upload anything
you downloaded before the bust, please' mode.) They didn't have any other
gravity-related files, so I turned to the message area and searched for
references to it or its authors. Turns out that the author hasn't been
around for a while -- he's been arrested for computer crimes. The sysop
didn't seem to be too impressed with his file, and said that he thinks he
copied it from a Consumertronics publication. Another person said it
sounded like something out of Information Unlimited. They were all pretty
skeptical, and nobody had actually had any experience with the subject.
(FYI, see 'Computer Shopper' for Consumertronics ads and "Discover" for
Information Unlimited ads. Though I don't remember seeing any gravity
coils advertised by either of them. In fairness to the authors, though,
they said that the only place to get information was by mail order and
nobody had it all.)
Enough of that. Onward!
In an article dated 29 Dec 90, Clark Matthews writes:
+Word is that concentric toroidal coils can work as described. I have not
+built one personally. I am aware of one person who seems to have been
+experimenting with them who suffered severe psychological sideeffects and
+ultimately died as a result of a very unusual lab accident. Similar
+sideeffects are a matter of record in other high-energy pioneers, notably
+Tesla.
You'll have to bear with me, Clark, because I'm even newer to the
electro-gravity field than I am to the UFO field, and I'm not heavily
involved in either one.
I know that Tesla was rather eccentric (to be kind), but I'm not sure if he
was always that way or whether it was a worsening condition. If it got
worse over time, it could've been psychological. He was involved in a feud
with Edison and a lawsuit against Marconi, wasn't he? But then again, I'm
not sure I'd want to expose myself to as much RF as he certainly did.
+ In some circles, the word is that Jack Parsons was
+fooling around with similar technologies at the time of his death. My
+point is that the danger attached toof the device seems to be quite real
+and, worse, very unpredictable. Fair warning.
Who was Jack Parsons?
I'm sure that such devices could be dangerous. From a purely
electromagnetic perspective, what would happen if the power failed
unexpectedly? (The file I have advises against letting this happen!) I
envision the power supply exploding from the induced current. I don't know
anything about EMP generation, but I imagine it would be a possibility
also. And if it *does* somehow alter local spacetime, have you seen the
Star Trek: The Next Generation episode where Wesley is hacking the warp
drive and traps his mother in a collapsing universe? :-) (And it just ran
again on Saturday, too...)
+You know your Allende!
Well, if you're ever in Montgomery and see a group of people apparently
laying their hands on thin air...
But seriously, 'Dr. Rinehart' said that the Experiment was covered up not
because of the technology involved but because of the embarassment of the
lives destroyed. So I guess the question becomes, does Allende talk about
the Experiment because he's crazy, or is he crazy because of the
Experiment? He stuck his hand into the field -- he must've been crazy.

Love it!

Happy New Year to all! Here is hoping that the New Year will be
much better than last year, and an additional hope that the
crisis in the Mid East may be resolved with out the use of force.

To anyone who reads this,
Please ask Jim Speiser, WM. Moore, or Bill Moore to contact
Ben Metzler at 503-624-2124 at thier convenience, I Very much wish
to talk to any of them about UFO's, Goverment cover-up, and the such.
I have no information other then what I have recieved from various
boards, and I would dearly like more to pass onto a friend of mine
who does not have access to a computrer like myself.
This friend, I feel, would be very interested in contacting any
of the three.
Thank you,
Ben.

Well...you may never get to see any original frames in person...but 'Unsolved
Mysteries' should be into re-runs soon, if nobody has a tape copy. :-)

OK!! So she failed geography class. Give her a break! :-)

I heard Friday that this got canceled by NASA with no explaination or future
date for broadcast. There might be a problem since Weststar 4 is almost
"dead" (meaning almost out of manuvering fuel) and might not be operational
(with no fuel it can't stay on location properly) at that time. There is a
big ruckus being raised about the broadcast being stopped.

Hi,
I saw your message and, even though I don't know the 800 number for Unsolved
Mysteries, I do have another number I could pass along if you want it.
Please let me know and I'll post it.

PS--has anyone seen her photos at the various conferences? Sounds like she
does a LOT of selling there.

I didn't see her at NUFOC or the MUFON symposium.
I sure would like to converse with someone who has examined her
cameras.
