Dear Laura:

I should correct my first post (above)

1)  The actual time was about 2100 hrs ( 9:00 PM )  Tuesday nite.
So, the Daly City event up north preceded the Orange County
sonic booms, if thats what they were.

2)  I narrowed the site down to about 122:35W  - 37:43N, i.e.
further North toward San Francisco.

3)  This is almost exactly where the San Andreas Fault runs out
to sea to the  north-northwest.

4)  At almost the same spot just offshore, there was a similar
sighting on 15NOV57. A white glowing object hovered. A policeman
and others watched for 10 minutes while it shifted to and fro.

Whether there is any connection to military exercises is a good
question in this case .. but the 1957 case sounds more like one
of those "Earthlights" type events, which are occasionally
reported.

In any case, I strongly doubt it is a valid UFO event. (I have
plenty of those listed in my database.) Maybe we should be
looking into earthquake insurance
