You bet I'm interested, I've been seeing these buggers for years and
it's comforting to know that (someone else) is seeing and recording the
same objects.
I'm getting ready to start a whole new "New Age religion" whose object of
worship is the videocam! If you chant 'Sony, Sony, Sony',often enough you
will attain enlightenment.
>It appears to be very close in appearance to the ARIZONIA LIGHTSHIPS.
Not too crazy about your use of the term, "Lightship." Simple truth is
we don't know 'what' they are. Unknowns or unidentifieds would be much
more accurate and less speculative. Although you *are* entitled to your
oppinion. Your 'guess' is just as good or valid as anyone elses I suppose.
BTW, I got to preview the webpage that Tom King and Jason DeGraf have set
up for my videoclip. They have done a completely professional and
compelling presentation of the material that I submitted to them. I will
post the web address as soon as Tom and Jason give me a 'green light' to
do so. I openly welcome comments from all serious and interested parties.
For Alex,
These sightings in NY are an important issue Alex, it won't do to see it
all get swept under a rug or dismissed because someone has attached New Age
jargon and connotations to it. Or by pretending to know what these things
are because they got the information from the alien that they channel for!
Know what I mean?
Let's try to be responsible about how we report these sightings. I'm a bit
taken back by the fact that the "Director" of New York Skywatch would use
terms like "Lightships" when making a report. I was laboring under the
delusion that "Skywatch" was a serious, investigative group of people.
Slapping labels on things prematurely (especially New Agey crap like
"Lightships") or jumping to conclusions can only serve to diminish ones
credibility, I'm sure you'd agree Mr Director! <G> I, for one would like
to be taken seriously by mt peers, it's something that has to be earned.
Careless usage of words (from one in your position) does nothing to help
the cause.
>PLEASE let me know what you think of it.....
The objects that you have captured on video are identical to the ones I
have witnessed repeatedly. They are also the same type of object that
Tom King, Mike DeVarnes, Bill Hamilton, John Bro and others have been
getting over Phoenix! Ditto for Mexico City. This is why I've been on such
a 'Jihad' about these sightings (which began in Mexico in 1991) and have
now progressed far enough north to generate sighting reports, photos and
video from New York.
To all of my beloved friends in 'Canuckia'... watch the skies, you're next!
The rash of sightings appears to be heading due north! <G>
I think more and more of these reports will begin to surface as time goes
by and more people begin to look up occasionally! It has become a mission
with me to work toward that end.
>The LIGHTSHIPS were seen in close proximity to some air traffic
>which was flying out of and into KENNEDY AIRPORT.
I live within spitting distance of JFK. The "UNKNOWNS" I have witnessed
are usually spotted south east of me (Jamaica Bay on your maps guys)
which is JFK's busiest landing and take off corridor. Like Mexico City,
this could prove to be a potentially dangerous situation for earthly
commercial traffic and passengers. And I'm not too bananas about having
a jumbo jet emergency land on my roof when my damn mortgage is so near
paid up!

Yes, that is precisely how the "UNKNOWNS" I have witnessed, photographed
and videotaped behave. Their flight characteristics are quite unique, easy
to spot and consistent.
>It appears that the objects were emitting and not reflecting light
I got that very distinct impression myself Alex, and have said so on
several occasions. It only becomes an important question because it is so
very hard to tell whether they are (in fact) reflecting or emitting the
bright light that the objects display.
>" LIFE IS ELECTRICITY AND ELECTRICITY IS LIFE "
You are absolutely right, but don't stick your pee-pee in a light socket to
test your theory! Electricity, (in the mundane world) can also *kill you*
reeeeeal good! <G>
