Local Detroit area news stations report that Selfridge Air National Guard Base has commented, saying that aircraft traffic in and out of the base had absolutely nothing to do with it. It is not known exactly how disappointed they were to hear that.

Harrison Twp. is only about 3 - 4 miles south of Selfridge so it could be debris falling from flying aircraft but there's not much flight traffic these days.

My guess is that it's mud that may have fallen from a low flying coast guard helicopter which is always active along that part of the lake due to the ice fishing.........

***Godzilla was just a movie and not really the news?***

You mean you missed all the 1950s newsreels that were confiscated and destroyed to prevent panic in the USA after what Godzilla did to Tokyo! ;-D

Warthog poop(as in A-10, from Selfridge)?

...used to fly low around these parts(NW of Selfridge)all the time...fortunately without the droppings.

Was an excellent crime thriller, too, with Michael Douglas and Andy Garcia.

My conspiracy theory is that it’s anti-military activists using drones to make it look like it could be coming out of SANGB.

It was probably due to a Hillary fly over, on her way to Nevada.

Scrape it up and market it to hipsters as a new coffee flavor!

If people want it cleaned up in a hurry all they need to do is start a rumor that licking it will get you stoned.

I saw all the newsreels, that’s why I’ve got 100 tons a Amdro in storage.

I’m ready for Them.

Thanks.

I’ve heard of purple rain before, but not black rain.
