Alderaan?
What is a CSRA?
What mystery is there in a meteor?
That movie scared me good — especially when he zapped the dog.
Then there was the lady in the pool...
Tune up music? ;)
I grew up close to Wright Patterson AFB and that was almost a daily thing in the 50’s.
back to sleep zzz
Hi mountn man, you said — “In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump...”

Now, that made me think you might be interested in our Rapture Caucus thread...
The Rapture [RAPTURE CAUCUS]
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-religion/2209700/posts
It’s a “caucus” which means the posters support the Rapture (being pre-trib, mid-trib and pre-wrath). So, if you’re a Rapture supporter, come on over... :-)
Very interesting. When I first read this I thought about the booms I heard yesterday in southern Maryland and the earth shaking.
It was a very low frequency bass sound followed by earth tremors. They happened several times, I thought they were earth quakes.

This is an interesting thread. In the middle of the night last night I thought I felt a long, low rumble. I’ve been checking the news and Internet all day to see whether we had an earthquake here in Ohio, but I haven’t seen anything yet about it. Could have been my imagination, I suppose, but this thread makes me wonder. But I didn’t hear a boom.
NASA has completed a delicate set of flight tests to measure how modifications to an F-15 jet can affect the way shock waves form. The results could help turn sonic booms into distant rumbles.
The measurements will be used to calibrate a computer model of shock wave propagation which will be a crucial aid for engineers designing a new generation of quieter supersonic aircraft. “We’re pretty close to being able to control sonic booms,” says Peter Coen of NASA’s Langley Research Center in Virginia, principal investigator for the agency’s supersonic research programme.

So you’ve seen ‘em too?
Hmmm, there was a volcano eruption over toward Australia (Tonga, I think). Sound travles through the earth and eventually is emitted on the otherside of the earth. And you say you heard low frequency rumblings and minor tremors? Sounds about right

signs in the heavens times?
Thanks.
Interesting.
Wonder what it could be . . .
Charleston, SC had these booms one summer in the early 1980s, and again a couple of years ago. Here is one possibility http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Guns_of_the_Seneca
So that would be ....Texas?......Virginia? The station call letters begin with "W", so it can't be West Coast.....
