[QUOTE="Michael Eichele, post: 131403, member: 1007"] [ QUOTE ] I realize it wouldn't be easy to prove without serious equipment(like radar, [/ QUOTE ] Aint that the truth!! You bring out some good points and ideas. My experiance here is somewhat limited and for the most part unscientifec by what most concider to be credible science practices.
