Dear List Members,

It looks like some are starting to realize the secret of the Park Forest =
strewnfield, it is reversed. I think this has happened only a couple =
times in history. I hinted at this in a June 15th post to the list not =
wanting to take the element of surprise away from a person who is =
authoring a paper on this very subject.

All the best,

Adam

  Hello Folks,

  This whole thing has me a bit perplexed for several reasons. First, =
the stone my brother and I recovered had a distinct angle of entry that =
I saw and documented, and passed on to Mr. Sipiera. That trajectory =
definately indicated that the offending stone came in from the S.E. and =
was heading in a N.W. direction. I determined this before ever being =
subjected to other theoriesof direction of entry. I also spoke with =
eyewitnesses in the days that followed and all backed up that =
conclusion.
  On a second trip I met with a man named Atul Kumar, He isn't a =
scientist but he has been gathering info on the strewn field for the =
astronomy club that he is involved with. He has compiled quite a =
list/map of stones that were recovered, including weights and locations =
of recovery, and his map indicates the same S.E. to N.W. direction, with =
the larger stones coming from the N.W. end of the strewn field.=20
  Of course I can't argue with the DOD satellite observation, but it =
sure is contradictory to what I've been thinking all along! The =
satellite indicates an entry of exactly the opposite of what the strewn =
field maps look like that I have seen, and my own recoveries, 70 gram =
stone in Steger, 638gram stone in P.F. indicate at the very least a =
South to North trajectory, (roughly).
  No matter how you slice it, based on the DOD satellite info, the =
larger stones should be south of the small ones, and this is just not =
the case.
  Is human error possible, between interpretation of the satellite data =
and publication of said information?
  Curious minds want to know,
  Larry=20
