the sad thing is this $%^&&* has spawned a number of copycat channels on youtube so many I wont bother to list them..This guy dose not deserve the time of day from ANY OF US here yet Gene and Chris tried! Chris with his offer was more than I or my husband would give him.. at the end of the day Chris and Gene will still be here and this guy will be off to his next project..hopefully he will try to film something decent.. or I may see something like this on his site...

So what would be your opinion of those who go on TPoM's radio show? They've had Walton and if I recall correctly Friedman ... and the list goes on. Is there an appropriate name for them ... like media sluts or something ... or would that be too harsh? I don't see any of the so-called paranormal personalities boycotting their show. Maybe they've all finally just snapped and gone completely woo? I'd hate to imagine what it means if we're the only ones left who think we're not crazy.

Do you happen to have the surviving footage accessible online? Just curious, even if it seems less spectacular it would be interesting to have a look.

No, but if you're really curious, PM an email or something and I'll upload one of them for you somewhere, and send the link. Or just PM and I'll PM the link back, I guess.

sirus, betleguiese or arcturis setting. I couldn't count the # of times someone called or reported them... On the horizon, they often flicker red white red (sometimes blue) white red red, etc. But they always set and they're always there the following evenings at the same time (depending on time of year, which star, etc). Occasionally they've been reported "beaming" the witness, "It knew I was watching it," blah, blah

Yup, which I believe most people learn in school about star composition and temperature and things that effect it's appearance. But I guess years later when you're looking up and notice different colors, it suddenly seems unusual. But the fact that it's not moving, always appears in the same place at the same time and otherwise looks just like the other stars (maybe a bit brighter) should be a tip off. Plus there are smartphone apps that provide maps of the night sky which you can literally hold your phone up in the position of the star and see what it is.

Do people usually realize their mistake afterwards or continue thinking that they are being "beamed"?

I would go with media sluts or whores. There is no value in the show so anyone going on there is only going to hurt their own reputation. There are those who are maybe just ignorant of who the Moons are but I think as time goes on and word spreads that there is no excuse for pure ignorance. I mean as was proven by B-Moon, it's really not wise (and makes you look stupid) to go on a show with no idea who they are, what they are about, who their audience is, etc.

I tend to lean more towards the popularity factor. They see high viewer counts and they want to tap into it. I suppose there is always the possibility that a few realistic, thinking types might tune in and be enticed to learn more in the right direction by a reputable guest but I am not sure if it would be worth it for the guest or the larger UFO community. After all if someone is truly interested then they will probably start digging around on their own and eventually discover the juicy meat underneath rather than continue sampling the artificial dog food scraps sitting on the surface.

Just tried and your profile viewing is limited so the common riffraff like me can't see it.

 

[Bob Watson]

I wont try to speak for my wife but travis walton was invited to come on the show but has yet to do so..but made time for BC and crew..could it be he dose not want probing questions? Or he wants a recptive show where whatever he says is fact? Hmmmmm I wonder...

 

[Randall]

That's excellent "the Moons" ... I'm going with that from now on ...

After all if someone is truly interested then they will probably start digging around on their own and eventually discover the juicy meat underneath rather than continue sampling the artificial dog food scraps sitting on the surface.

Let's hope so!

One of the reasons I like Paracast is the host's do challenge the guests.
Blake Cousin did stay calm and I have to give him credit for that.

I'm sorry, Grifynne. I haven't been able to get to my profile settings since I registered over a year ago. There is some incompatibility between the site and my browser, which I've mentioned to Gene, and which makes it very slow going trying to post here. Hence my lack of posts until just recently.

Well, I guess I'll just post a link to the footage here, for all and sundry. What's the worst that can happen? My camera probably doesn't even have its clock set, much less would it know any geographical coordinates. I guess you can turn up the volume and hear a shitty internet radio program I listen to sometimes. If someone wanted to REALLY bother me, they could sent it to TTWSNBN, but don't do that, be nice!

The link should be good for just one or two weeks. With sendspace, skip the fake DOWNLOAD ad at the top, which is a google ad, and only press the lower button which says SENDSPACE DOWNLOAD prominently (but don't press the fine print underneath that for some SENDSPACE download manager/accelerator, they'll try to sell you something if you do).

Description:

Context: initial sighting of "red-orange fireballs" was made by me last autumn, with some very subjective circumstances, around dusk. Sightings continued over the months until the beginning of the year, when I started getting creeped out and started ignoring them. This file is the last sighting and is atypical in that the light didn't rise just after dusk, but later, and came from a slightly different part of the sky. Further, it moved differently, drawing closer, and was much brighter than the earlier ones, then stopping in midair, hovering for some time and then assuming a trajectory at a low angle ascending away into the distance towards the south.

General characteristics: small balls of light, look like those plasma lamps sold a few decades ago at malls, seemingly low altitude, red in the middle, orange towards the outside of the sphere, flickering but not like a candle, more of an electrical effect, or maybe like the quiver you sometimes see in the ionized gas in a neon sign when the current flips between alternate paths due to a strange bend in the glass tubing.

Date: Film starts at about 9:19:30 P.M. local time after about one or two seconds of observation by me, on the night of April 6, 2013.

Location: rose SW, travelled easterly, ascended and faded away toward the south at about a 20 degree angle ascending, at [location redacted].

Nothing spectacular, but since this one was brighter and/or closer, a slightly better view than the earlier ones, which tended to appear reddish-orange to the eye but bluish-white upon viewing the digital recording.

Apologies for posting this here, but done in the general spirit of "disclosure" and it is raw, unedited footage, fwiw. No local news on any of these, and no one seems to notice them, even the one I filmed at the train station where there were scads of people, but other people have seen them when I pointed them out. What are they? Drones, Chinese plasma lamps? I don't know.

Thanks for sharing the video and details, Storge! You should really consider creating a thread for this on the personal experiences board (maybe even uploading to YouTube just so there's a reference). Oh, and I already sent it to B-Moons for you. I kid. I wouldn't send those guys a flaming bag of...UFO sightings.

Anyway have you noticed any patterns to their appearances? You mentioned dusk, but is there any correlation to the days/weeks they appear? Does a lot of time pass between each sighting or is it pretty frequent? And when you say this was your last sighting, do you mean it is the actual last sighting you have noticed in a long while (as in they might be gone for good) or do you mean you don't want to look for them anymore so they might still be there (I believe you mentioned that they were creeping you out, which I don't blame you - I would be very creeped out as well so please don't think I am making light of your reaction. I am sure this situation was unsettling when you started to notice it's strangeness).

And, if you don't mind my asking, when you say subjective circumstances, would you be willing to elaborate? I actually have other questions, but I'll leave it at that for the sake of not sounding like an interrogator.

As I said, this might be best suited to its own thread rather than drowning in the sea of moon cheese we have here.

He was calm, but so is this guy...

 

[Rikki]

here is my take on 3rd phase!

 

[Christopher O'Brien]

"out of many we are one." We are the product of our times. We're parts of a collective voice that creates and propagates memes out into culture like zombies in WWZ.
We all paint the face of the clown that dances during tenuous times. But we pick the colors and fill in the blanks.
twsnbn appears (to me) to simply be a reflection to ourselves of what we idealize the UFO phenomenon to be.
Like in politics, those red-haired identical twin stepchildren of "Religion" and "Politics" are also present within the field of ufoology.
And humans have a bad habit of idealizing what they don't understand about science.

So the creation of groups, ideas, etc. like MoonTube is, by human nature, inevitable. I suppose that's not surprising when you look back at how things that were misunderstood were addressed throughout human history. And, by that reasoning, I assume then the only remedy would be wide spread understanding of the thing that has collectively captivated the masses. Although I am not so sure understanding of the UFO phenomena is coming anytime soon.

Maybe it's not all a bad thing, though. I wonder if it's almost like an unspoken coping mechanism for society as a whole when it encounters the unknown. And even religion and politics, despite their many evils, can move people to do positive things as individuals like help their fellow man or work towards solutions for social problems. If the right people get involved and find inspiration, they could do something important that has a positive ripple effect.

Not to give any credit to people like the B-Moons. I really believe they are in it for popularity and to make a buck. But perhaps they and others like them will be the catalyst that pushes someone else into sharing evidence they have hidden away or taking some action that brings us one step closer to understanding.

And in the meantime, frustrating as it is, many people will continue to be amused by the antics of the court jesters who continue to validate their belief that this phenomena doesn't exist and it's only crazy/stupid/paranoid/backwoods/etc. type people who claim to experience it.

Oh yeah, I should be careful before I start the car, in case ET is taking a breather beneath the gas tank. Please, let's stop posting these links. You are only feeding their fantasies.

It looks real to me.
I think this is the proof we all have been waiting for.

I agree. We now have proof that aliens are freeloaders who won't even pony up for bus fare.
