Or anywhere, for that matter.


Well then it did happen. I was "super into" "chemtrails" back then. I say this because, I haven't seen activity like that since and just chalked it up to me being too curious. I wasn't the only one who noted the difference. But okay, the white threads stands as a possibly true phenomenon.

Star Jelly and Angel Hair mythology definitely pre-date chemtrail theories, and both are associated with UFO phenomena. Both wikipedia entries give a nice attempt for skepticism but most examples lead to more questions than answers.

There was s good chapter on angel hair in one of my mother's paranormal research books dating from the 60's or early 70's, I wish that information was available on the internet.

The Waterford Incident
Aired May 7, 1978

A strange sighting is reported by several students at Waterford Military Academy, headed by Col. Max Delany. The boys claim a saucer flew over their school, discharging strands of an 'angel hair' substance that turned their hands green when they touched it, and the military school becomes enveloped in a strange web-like substance left behind by the UFO. Gatlin and Fitz investigate the incident, and also a case told to them by astronomer Dr. Virginia Paulson, who puts them in touch with Darryl Biggs, a young man who sighted a triangular-shaped vehicle in the woods while hunting. Afraid of losing his job because of his bizarre story, Biggs reluctantly tells Gatlin and Fitz how an unearthly alien robot emerged from the ship and attacked him.

Come on people, you say these white sticky threads were falling through the air, landing everywhere and covering everything, right in your own town. So did you keep samples? Did anyone? Have there been chemical analyses? What's the point in speculating when you can find out exactly what it is?

In the new RI, I'll continue mainly to look benevolently on the Sasquatch and frog-rain stuff, from afar.

Does anyone know ... if/when mods move a thread from one forum to another ... what might be the unintended consequences?

I recall a big thread I was trying to find I couldn't as it had been merged (different than moving to different forum) with another - I think this was a thread consolidation requested by Jack that condensed the New Manhattan Project thread into the To The Hell That Is Iraq thread or similar.

I like the idea of forcing posts into certain sub-forums because otherwise only an even smaller handful of posters ever post to those sub-forums and everything ends up in GD.

I realize some might not like such a forced categorization of things, especially given the cross-categorization efforts of RI's founder's wonderful blog posts which brought most of us here - wanting to be able to discuss the paranormal and the parapolitical.

Jack! Don't go! Doctorates are for nerds!

(Taking a new tack): Jack! Doctorates are cool! But don't go! Post your doctoral dissertation here! In daily instalments! We can help you! We can pick holes in it! We can add weary sarcasm and petty point-scoring! We can add bits about UFOs!

if Jeff came back and posted anonymously he'd probably get booted shamed off his own board
Mazars and Deutsche Bank could have ended this nightmare before it started.
They could still get him out of office.
But instead, they want mass death.

Arg, you crazy millenarians, Jeff's available to you any time, if you're willing to hang out with him on FB. His obsessions remain the same, though the Ford family has really grown... and grown... into predominance.
