On reading the above description, I was struck by the
amazing similarity of the description to tube objects
portrayed in a contemporary woodcut by Hans Glaser
of the "very frightful spectacle" seen in the skies
above Nuremburg, Germany on April 4th 1531.

For those of you who have a copy of Peter Brooksmith's
book, "UFO, the Complete Sightings", an image of this
woodcut appears on page 16.  I've also seen it elsewhere,
but can't cite sources.

The woodcut shows, among other bizarre things, long
apparently transparent tubes with spheres, some spheres
inside in the tubes, some spheres emerging from the
tubes, and some spheres outside.  If the Nuremburg and
Ontario objects are indeed the same, the responsible
source has truly been around for quite awhile,
historically speaking.
