Subject: Ongoing Activities Message-ID: <889_9501152314@wmeonlin.sacbbx.com> Organization: Fidonet: Gates Of Delirium - US 916/339-9043: Lines: 88 Good Evening, For about a month, I have been working with a man in Sacramento, CA, who is involved in an ongoing case in the Sacramento area. The man has, since November, been regularly going to parts of Sacramento and Yolo counties (almost nightly) and videotaping unusual objects and activities. These videotapes include: 1. Large, airborne triangular shaped objects, usually with three distinct lights (one at each corner), occasionally with additional, fainter lights on what would be the leading edges of an aircraft fuselage. 2. Smaller triangular craft which appear to be 20 to 30 feet on each side. These craft are not equilateral triangles, they appear to be close to isosceles triangles, but not quite. These almost invariably have one light in each corner; one red, one white, and one medium blue. They also appear to have a fairly large, hemispherical "bubble" in the middle of the triangular surface, which sometimes glows, getting extremely bright for short periods. 3. Orange-white spheres, which appear to be four to six feet in diameter, and spinning rapidly on an axis which is perpendicular to the earth. In the video I have seen of these, they appear to stay close to the ground, to hover, and to maneuver over an open, plowed field. 4. Other paranormal phenomena, caused by the lights, or the intelligence behind them, which includes making inanimate objects appear to be become animate, such a making a large storage tank appear to turn into a giant frog. I have seen approximately three hours of Richard's video tapes. He tells me that he now has more than thirty hours of tapes, which increases regularly as he goes out and shoots more pictures. I have seen the first three types of objects described above on tape and the descriptions of those are my own account of what I have seen. I have not seen the type described at number 4, so that is his account, not mine, but I will also add here that although these are fantastic claims, I know of another investigator who investigated a case last year of different individual who allegedly saw the same types of "morphing" objects in approximately the same area, and just this past week I encountered a woman with a very similar account of activities in the Auburn, CA area. The tapes, by the way, vary in quality from good to poor. A few are daylight, most are twilight or nightime and much is void of fixed, ground reference points. The subject, Richard, is convinced that the phenomena "is working with him", in that he feels he is led, intuitively, to whatever area in which they will be active on any given evening. He also claims that government agents are trying to stop him and to take his tapes. Richard is not a particularly believable person. He gets emotional and is not particularly articulate. I would have discounted his stories completely if he did not have so much interesting video tape (and other witnesses) to support his claims. He is emotional, and his claims are, indeed, fantastic, and yet he has shown me video tapes that support many of his claims. I did go out with him one evening between rainstorms, and we saw only one airborn object that was unusual, and I can only say that this one was at a considerable distance and did not appear to be marked in accordance with FAA requirements. At this point Richard has basically refused to cooperate with any investigator who will not help him publicize his experiences. When I described to him how the e-mail sysytem works, he asked that I do this for him, to help him take his case to the public. He feels compelled to bring this information to any others who will listen, and so I have VERY reluctantly agreed to bring this information out in this manner. Against my advice, Richard has asked that I put his phone number "on line" so that interested persons can contact him directly. So, if you are interested is discussing this with Richard, he can be reached at (916) 428-1802. Richard works odd hours, the best time to reach him is between 2 and 5 P.M. Anyone with an interest in contacting me can reach me at: P.O. Box 1166 Weimar, CA 95736 Regards, John Maylone ... I enjoy talking about gravity and its opposite, comedy.
