What do these lights around Obama portend?

The near halo-like perfect circumference is proportionally equal to the digit representing his sum total knowledge of foreign policy: one big blinding goose egg.

A “rare site” literally within an hour of a huge quake — when other strange lights were reported before the 1976 quake? Quite a coincidence.

I have an open mind on this. I’ve read about disruptions in radio waves and other electromagnetic transmissions immediately prior to major earthquakes. I wouldn’t be surprised to learn of atmospheric disruptions.

Never seen that before!

…gimme a break

Hmmmmmm….

its just part of a plot by karl rove at the behest of bush to RULE THE WORLD

These lights are merely one more trick that can be done with the Rove weather machine.

The shoe fit.

Guess you have never heard of the phrase… Pawn.

And with that.. Yawn!

abinitioadinfinitum on May 21, 2008 at 1:04 PM

The light is sooooo prettyyyy. Must touch!

Other then that, you are boring and the fact you don’t like my answers do not bother me to any degree. Please step away from the keyboard and take a breath.

Yes master. Finally understanding that I argued with no one, including yourself, what causes this and our only disagreement was on the meaning of conspiracy? Or does it bore you to finally realise the obvious?

You forgot a few details. It must be noted that the various particles within Governmentium switch polarity between Right and Left every four years or so. Astoundingly, while these switches do not yield any significant changes in the overall behavior of Governmentium, it does lead to noticeable impacts on the other elements that interact with which Governmentium interacts. For instance, when Governmentium has a Right polarity, Anti-Bushions tend to get really excited and radioactive. When Governmentium has a Left polarity, particles with the same electrical charge begin to attract to one another and Governmentium begins leaching electrons from more massive elements and redistributing those among less massive elements.

No you were noting the fact that I said I didn’t think Allah was that type. Allah is a big boy and can take care of himself, he really doesn’t need to have a protector.

Other then that, you are boring and the fact you don’t like my answers do not bother me to any degree. Please step away from the keyboard and take a breath.

There is no evidence that these shots were taken any time close to the earthquake, or that they were actually filmed anywhere near the earthquakes (China is virtually the same size as the US). This is an absolute non-story.

LMFAO… DUDE! Are you MAD? Can you not debate? Or are you just getting upset?

upinak on May 21, 2008 at 12:48 PM

There is no debate here. What there is here is an inability on your part to read. People speculating about nonsense they have little or no knowledge of is not a conspiracy. I don’t care what you think is or is not the cause because I was never addressing that issue with you. I was addressing your notion of conspiracy.

The’re called sun dogs.

Thats the ticket, ice cyrstals and light refraction, A fairly common sight if you pay attention to the sky.

Look, where I live is small. We have many a different degree of people up here. I work a lot with geologists, physicist, seismologists, chemists and a few other random people.

They have seen this video… They all agree. Ice Crystals in the atmosphere. Not trying to rain on your parade. I do not believe this has anything to do with magnetism.

We see these constantly up here, they are nothing new. If they were so special, why weren’t they spotted during the 8.1 here in Alaska? Or any of the earthquakes that happen constantly up here as well as quite a few that happen in Cali, AZ, Utah, Washington and Oregon lately? Hawaii has just as many, and nothing there as well. Don’t believe me… Check out the USGS on earthquakes today!

Think Air Mass, Low pressure, density, cloud coverage, which air layer were the clouds on and why type of cloud were they?

flutejpl on May 21, 2008 at 12:29 PM

You are correct. Aurora’s look like they dance, run or “prance” as I heard someone else say which makes sense. They also do what looks like a tidal wave. And in some cases, when you see them above you (this is usually when they are multiple different colors blue, pink, reds, purples but never green) they look like they are falling on you… in a downward motion.

And if the magnetic shield was about to “break” why wasn’t there one in the Washington one or the Alaska one(s)? So I do not find it plausible.

Flute… now just on your speculation. Alaska has a high vantage because the sun is now “sitting” on top of the arctic… world tilting towards sun. How is it that I still see the rainbows, or sun dogs all the time still?

As for the theory of a hole in the magnetic shield caused by the strain about to break beneath, presented above by NotCoach, I do find that plausible. The resulting aurora would not look like a rainbow though, right? The few auroras I’ve seen didn’t remind me of rainbows at all.

I was just tossing fun stuff out there without any real knowledge on the subject. Just thought it would be fun to point out the link between our magnetic field and pretty lights.
