With all due respect…

Slow down Lon!

This only proves that you are more concerned with stirring up conspiracy theory than reporting the truth of the matter.

For the record, BAASS is not involved in any way with the management of MUFON, nor is MUFON involved with the management of BAASS.

MUFON has been independently investigating UFOs since 1969. BAASS has recognized that MUFON investigates with scientific protocol and a strict code of ethics.

MUFON’s finest Certified Field Investigators are finally being respected and rewarded for their talent, persistence and professionalism.

BAASS is only one of many benefactors who have recognized MUFON as the leading UFO investigative organization on the planet. MUFON is thankful for the support received from all of our benefactors and members.

I for one am pleased that MUFON finally has funding and state of the art equipment to properly investigate reports of unexplained aerial phenomenon in a thorough and timely manner.

I remember when everyone bitched that there needs to be “serious funding” for right and professional UFO investigation and research.

Now that MUFON has access to the needed resources to independently and properly investigate, the poles are automatically shifted to make a positive into a negative.

Am I the only one to notice this?

The UFO phenomenon has not gone away. And it still brings out the excellent, the terrible and the hideous in everyone.

By the way, my name is Mark Easter and I am the International Director of Public Relations for MUFON.

Is anyone interested in the positive things happening at MUFON?

There are many!

NOTE: Obviously, my 2 posts in regards to MUFON are getting some reaction…excellent! Here are the links to those posts MUFON: Who Are They…Really? and Press Release Proves MUFON and Feds Connected. Since the first post, I have received comments from the MUFON International Director of Public Relations, another MUFON Public Relations staff member, 2 MUFON State Directors and numerous former State Directors, field investigators and rank & file members. Honestly, not all the comments I received were favorable and/or defending of MUFON. My blog posts, on most occasions, reflect the opinions of readers and those who want to be heard. It’s obvious that MUFON feels I’m stirring up a conspiracy theory. It is not my intention to get into a pissing contest with this organization…but I’m not going to sit back and be terrible mouthed either. If MUFON has concerns, then let them take the initiative and answer their critics and follow up with their witnesses in a more conducive manner…Lon

BTW…here is an fascinating post by Joe Capp at UFO Media Matters – MUFON’s 600 lb Gorilla: Common Sense. I want to thank all of those who have responded to me on this manner…Lon

I received mail not long ago from one of our readers who had a report to submit. He states that on the evening of November 21, 2008, he was driving on a rural road when he saw a group of flashing lights in the sky. His sighting occurred in Leesburg, Ohio.

He described his sighting as life changing, so be sure to check it out at Silent UFO over Ohio, and make any comments you wish.

Ostrich farm located 3 miles from where discovery made

by Elaine McMillion
Daily Mail staff

CLENDENIN, W.Va.–Something larger than a Thanksgiving turkey laid the egg that Sherman Farley stumbled upon while deer hunting Tuesday.

Bill Pepper, owner of Benedict Haid Farm, three miles from where the egg was found, suspects it is an ostrich egg.

But it still remains a mystery as to how the 4.5-pound egg that measures 18 inches in diameter longways wound up in the woods near Dutch Ridge Road in Clendenin.

Farley, 49, learned it while hunting about 1:30 p.m. Tuesday.

After examining the beige-colored egg, he chose to leave it there overnight. He returned home later that evening and told his wife about his find.

“He was worried to get it,” Rosie Farley said with a laugh. “He thought it might blow up.”

So on Wednesday morning Rosie went with her husband to the spot where it lay.

Rosie, 60, has been a hunter herself for nearly 30 years, but she was baffled by the enormous egg.

“I’ve never seen anything like this in the woods,” she said.

“It looks like it has been with another egg in the nest,” she said as she pointed to a dried, yellow, yolk-like substance on the shell.

The egg measures 16 1/4 inches in diameter at its center and has a porcelain-like shell.

Rosie says it can’t be a turkey egg because those are not much larger than chicken eggs. She also said she has never seen peacocks in the area. Emu eggs are much darker in color, normally blue or green.

“I’m sure there’s nothing native to West Virginia that would lay an egg that size,” said Jim Phillips, a state naturalist based at Pipestem State Park.

Rosie said she has recently heard tales of ostriches running loose near Falling Rock, which is honestly close by and between Blue Creek and Clendenin.

Pepper said about a month ago someone called him to report the appearance of an emu running through the woods just miles from his farm on Dutch Ridge Road.

“I told them I only have one emu and it was still there,” said Pepper, who is also a Charleston lawyer. “But that might have been an ostrich that someone confused for an emu.”

Benedict Haid Farm, which is about three miles from where the egg was found and about a half hour’s drive from downtown Charleston, has one emu and seven ostriches.

Pepper said the shell of an ostrich egg is dimpled like a golf ball and thicker than that of a chicken egg – about an eighth of an inch thick.

Pepper’s description matches the characteristics of the Farley’s find, but now the question is not “what,” but “how?”

“How would an egg get three miles from the farm?” Rosie wondered.

Pepper said ostriches lay eggs only in warm weather. He has not seen one of his large birds lay an egg in three to four weeks.

Phillips, the naturalist, also said that wild birds are not laying eggs this time of the year.

“I wonder if the West Virginia Mothman found a girlfriend,” Phillips joked.

Pepper does not believe one of his ostriches has escaped.

“I don’t keep an accurate count so maybe one of mine got loose, but I really don’t reckon so,” Pepper said. “Someone on the farm would have told me.”

“Besides they make no attempt to get loose. They got it made and they don’t jump the fence,” he said.

Phillips suspects other wildlife is to blame.

“If he’s not missing any ostriches, probably what has happened is a coyote, raccoon or bear has rolled it that far,” Phillips said. “It wouldn’t be impossible for a dog to go something like that, too.”

But, Phillips said he doesn’t know why a bear or raccoon couldn’t have figured out how to crack open the egg.

Pepper said it is hard to believe an animal could get a four-pound egg three miles to the place where Farley found it.

“I don’t see how an animal could have done that,” Pepper said.

Pepper and Phillips suspect a prank.

“The only other thing I can reckon of is one of the neighbors did it as a joke to see if a hunter would find it,” the naturalist said.

But the egg finished up in the woods, Pepper said the Farleys have a new but foul-smelling treasure in their possession.

“There is nothing in there but a bunch of slime and goo,” Pepper said. “Chances are it will be the most horrific smell they have ever smelled.”

Pepper recommends the couple drill a hole in the bottom with a quarter-inch drill bit and blow out the contents with a tire pump. Then he says they should soak it in bleach.

An ostrich egg is valued at $10 to $15, he said.

“People carve them and paint them,” Pepper said. “They are very pretty. You can a buy a stand for them.”

That’s exactly what the Dutch Ridge residents plot to do.

“I’d like to find out what it is, drill it and keep it as a souvenir,” Rosie said.

Although the chances of a baby ostrich surviving are extremely slim, Rosie can still dream.

“If it hatched, I’d probably pen it up and take care of it,” Rosie said. “And if it was huge enough, I’d probably saddle it up.”

UPDATE: Well, it looks like it’s going to be more than just a few days unless Comcast can figure out the problem. They can’t even choose if there is an actual outage, let alone what is really incorrect. Then, to top it off, they canceled my service appointment on Weds….and rescheduled for next Weds.(Dec.2nd). Unbelievable! I called their service center 5 times on Weds. and received 5 different answers. I’m using up my megabytes on my mobile modem to get mail and post updates…as well as trying to maintain my business during the holiday rush. I plot on telling as many people as possible how terrible Comcast treats their customers. Thanks for sticking in there, everyone. Hopefully, this will be resolved soon…Lon
