None. This is not a > flame Paul, just a matter-of-fact. Is this an official statement from someone who would know? There weren't any CIA people on Pan Am 103 either, right? At least that's what they said then. No, just a few, and "maybe" the Beirut station chief. A few special DEA agents too (returning from Beirut), and rumors of others (maybe that's why they picked that flight). It was years before the government stopped denying that, and never would have if it hadn't been for all those screaming families and reporters. Just like the government didn't have informers (agents?) on the inside at Waco. They've admitted that now, they just won't say if any the survivors at the end were. Nah. Wouldn't matter even if there were, right? People working for those arms of government wear all sorts of uniforms, work for all sorts of companies, and come from all sorts of countries. Just because uncle sam says so, doesn't make it so. ------------------------------ From: corpsnut@isumataq.eskimo.com (Cathy Doser) Date: Thu, 2 Jun 1994 23:13:49 -0700 Subject: Doughnuts On A Rope!!!!!!!! Time: 6:10pm PDT Place: Skies over Seattle Direction: South to North Sighting: Doughnuts on a rope contrail, fresh Story: I was just walking out of MacDonalds with some dinner, when I looked up and saw a contrail. I always like to see contrails, but I stared at it for a moment and realized that it was the one, the motherload, the Doughnuts On A Rope. I walked quickly over to my car and beat on the window by my friend screaming at her and pointing in the air "Doughnuts On A Rope!!! Doughnuts On A Rope!!!" She got out of the car quickly, and we stared in disbelief. She saw and confirmed what I saw. We tried to get the three miles to my house quickly to get out my camera, but by two miles, or 5 minutes from the time we left MacDonalds, unrecognizable as a special contrail, so we didn't go for the camera. I tell you one thing, I'm going to start carrying one of those throw away cameras in my car. It would have been enough. Well, that's pretty much it. Does anyone have any info on day flights of Aurora? Does anyone have any idea of why it would have been out during the day? Is it starting day flights like the F-117 did just before it was opened up to the public? /\ //\\ |||| | | /| |\ __________________________________________________ / | | \ ___ | Cathy Doser * Blackbird, A Novel _/^\ | | /^\_ | | P.O.
