- In recent posting, Sheldon Wernikoff raises the point of a Mig-29
- pilot not being sure if he saw something on the 24th or 25th of
- December 1989 as these are Christmas Eve and Christmas Day.
-
- Could I suggest two possible reasons for this :
-
- 1. Although the 'Authorities' are happy for people
- in general to know about the report, they do not
- want to be too specific about any military operation.
-
- 2. I believe that the Russians do not celebrate Christmas
- as we do in the West. I think that even the Russian
- Church celebrates a festival on what I would call
- 12th Night i.e. 6 days after New Year. The 24/25th
- December would probably just be any other day to the
- pilot.

-
- I have been negotiating recently with a colleague who runs a board
- for her family history data to have a UFO section. At the moment she

- Keith,
- Thanks for the Australian crop circle posts, very interesting.
- Also looks like D+D did not make Australia then. Here in the UK
- the media seemed to have accepted that D+D were the cause and even
- the local television station, TVS, reported in their 1991 review
- program that 1991 was the year that the corn circle mysteries were
- solved by the emergence of two retired gents. Lets wait and see in
- the 1992 'season'

- Actually this isn't quite true. Bill Hamilton went "public" to the press much
- earlier, and Dow Jones/Barron's has followed this case since 1987, not long
- after Meese attempted to force Inslaw into involuntary bankruptcy in the
- federal bankruptcy courts. The Napa Sentinel series I posted actually started
- as a series on corruption in the Federal Bankruptcy courts in Northern
- California -- that's where Meese's associates have the best connections.
-
- This would have precluded a suit by Inslaw for software piracy by the Attorney
- General of the United States, the Wackenhut Corporation, and numerous agencies
- that "recommended" or distributed the stolen software the foreign intelligence

- Subject: Aussie crop circle
- Date: 18 Jan 92 20:54:00 GMT
-
- The phenomenon taps in to Paranet. I'm sure of it now. After recently
- posting an item that we have not had any recent examples of crop
- circles in Australia I now humbly have to report:-
-
- "The Age" Newspaper, Melbourne, Victoria. 31/12/91.
-
- " "If anyone calls me a prankster, I'll punch them in the nose," says
- Ken price. It must be said at the outset that Mr Price, a Mallee
- wheatgrower for 50 of his 64 years, is not a violent person. Nor is he
- a ratbag or a hoaxer. He does, however, have some unexplained circles
- in his wheat paddocks that are attracting the attention of
- international crop circle watchers, and yes, UFO enthusiasts.
- Mr Price first stumbled upon the circles earlier this month when he
- and his son Noel were harvesting their wheat. There are six circles
- varying from two to 3.5 metres in diameter and another larger oval 4.5
- metres across in another paddock.
- On seeing the first circle, Mr Price put the flattened crop down to
- foxes and thought nothing more about it. When he came upon another,
- then another and then a few days later the large oval, 1.5 kilometres
- away, he called in neigbours to take a closer look. They, like him,
- had never seen anything like it and were fascinated.
- It was then that he contacted another farmer, Mrs Nancy Jolly, who put
- him in touch with a group led by Colin Andrews, the British crop
- circle researcher who gave up his job as an electrical engineer 18
- months ago to go on the crop circle detective trail full time.
- In 1989, a number of crop circles had appeared at Mrs Jolly's Turriff
- farm, about 20 kilometres from the Price farm near Hopetoun. A third,
- unconfirmed sighting has also been reported at nearby Beulah.
- Mr Andrews visited Australia recently and last month spent some time
- on the Jolly property.
- Mr Price does not believe the circles are the handiwork of a practical
- joker. "I assure you it's fair dinkum," he says. "No person could
- re-create them, or flatten a crop like that." He is taking the Great
- Mallee Mystery in his stride, although he was reported to be slightly
- alarmed at a suggestion by a UFO "expert" that the field might be
- radioactive. It isn't."

- Hi Mark Rodeghier (No 2)
-
- There is no mix up, my message was directed to Mark Rodeghier of the
- Center for UFO Studies because I know him but I don't know you. So
- it's basically very simple. You can write to him C/- J.Allen Hynek Center for
- UFO Studies, 2457 West Peterson Avenue, Chicago, Illinois 60659.
- Info. Paranet is an open area so I am sure Mark Rodeghier was able to
- read my message.
- Regards,
- Vladimir

- Hi Steve... I certainly agree with #2. In all likelihood, there
- would be inadequate probability of association with the 24/25 date,
- for your stated reasons. However, #1 does not readily apply, since
- Vladimir was not engaged in a military operation at the time of his
- sighting. He was rehearsing aerobatics for the Chelyabinsk
- Aeroclub, a civilian organization. Additionally, the article
- appeared in IUR under the sponsorship of the Joint American-Soviet
- Aerial Anomaly Federation (JASAAF), a civilian organization.
-
- I still feel that the actual date of the event should have been
- known or easily retrievable by one of the principals, or Haines,
- the author.
-
- There may be a very valid reason for this incongruity, but frankly,
- I've yet to be convinced.
-
- Thanks for your post,

- I'll have to look for that book, thanks. As for common symbols, how many
- ways are there to symbolize a tree or a stream, or a cave? There are bound to
- be duplications. I've been reading about indian petroglyphs lately and found
- the only book where someone has "broken" the code. Really interesting. So for
- example make a spiral, now make it the other way, you now have two symbols
- that are universally found on planet earth. Is there anything strange about
- that? l = 1 ll = 2 lll = 3 etc.
-
- I'm not trying to discount any transfer of language or blendings, but I
- would say that sometimes finding things that are similar is a matter of human
- intellegence. We have the ability to reflect and reason. We can remember and
- apply from different areas of knowledge. When I see the same symbols in
- Celtic designs that Indians used in rock drawings, does that imply that the
- two groups met or had contact? Personally I don't believe so. Coincidence
- yes, limitations on variations also.
-
- If one looks for strange things, they will without a doubt find something
- strange.
