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,

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

From: vanth!jms@amix.commodore.com (Jim Shaffer)

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!

     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!  :-)

In a message of <Dec 26 21:02>, Paul Faeder (9:1010/0) writes:

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.
