Hey brother, do you know anything about the "Phoenix lights" that caused
such an uproar about ten years ago? I saw video of this large dark
object
supposedly gliding over Phoenix and environs. The "authorities" are
calling
them target flares at the Goldwater Gunnery Range. Wonder why this only
seems to be an issue every ten years or so.

Lemme thimk... lights in the sky over Phoenix, big Vee formation, *****
poor
video of the event, nothing to scale distance or altitude. Probably
helicopters
in formation with the landing lights on. Get high enough and even helos
can't be
heard from the ground. There are a lot of MOAs in Arizona, wierd *****
flies
there all the time. The human brain can play tricks on you, making
something out
of nothing to solve conflicts in sensory input. I'm still waiting for
good
in-focus video or stills of these UFOs. You'd think with the level of
technology
we have access to, we'd have some good footage by now. I'd love to be
convinced,
but my eyes have lied to me in the past, so I need to 'see the bones'
first.
One thing I'm sure of, they weren't flares. Flares don't maintain
altitude.
