Hi, Dennis and listfolk:

From time to time (though fairly rarely), UFO witnesses have
reported the sensation that what they were observing was a
living object. On June 1, 1933, a mountain climber on Everest
told of seeing winged objects which "seemed to pulsate in and
out as though they were breathing." There is the famous
Crawfordsville, Indiana, monster story from September 1891, not
to mention the tradition of pwdre ser ("rot from the stars," aka
"star jelly"). Plus the remarkable case from Biskopsberga,
Sweden, in May 1808, a full account of which was published in a
contemporary issue of Transactions of the Swedish Academy of
Sciences.  Again, I refer interested listfolk to my coverage of
these and related matters in The UFO Encyclopedia, 2nd Ed., pp.
872-77. If any of you know of other cases, I encourage you to
post them here.
