RS showed me where he saw the 'craft' from beneath, I estimated the area to be more than a mile wide, and as he said he did not look behind him to see an edge, that area covered more than a mile. Therefore, he could not discern any shape whatsoever. The shapes, or 'tubes' as RS refers to them as being, went up into the 'craft' and did NOT protrude downward. I also asked him if it created shade from the daylight, he said that it did not. His attention was focused (just moments before seeing it) on being quiet as to no scare any deer off that might potentially be feeding to his immediate west, the sun was about to set and he said that his feet had just snagged on some briars (mine did also as he explained how his had that evening) and he thought that he had made too much noise regaining his balance when "Something made me look up, and there it was."
I would also like to add that he has seen this thing many times, and has video on his cell phone (8 minutes 30 seconds) of it from a distance that I would estimate between 7 and 12 miles away. Also (and this is very interesting) there is a video (according to a source) in existence of a deer feeder survielence cam that caught something VERY strange. I do not wish to elaborate on it as it is not my place to do so, nor have I actually seen the video, but from what was described to me to be on the video...it might be the single most amazing video to date of a UFO. The owner(s) of the video are not yet certain of what they should do with it, who to trust with it. Any further information will have to come from the owner of the video, who I hope will make the video available to us before submitting it to some other entity that might 'misplace' it. There is so much more to this story than what has been made public so far, and the people who are in possession of the evidence want to decide for themselves what to do next.

Hi Rick,
Did you get a look at the cell phone video? Has Mr Sorrells saved the video to his computer and burned it to a CD yet? If not, he needs to take steps to protect his video. Who knows what could happen to the cell phone.
As Angelia stated, the safest thing to do is to stay in the public eye. The witnesses should get their evidence to the public as soon as possible to avoid becoming targets.
It would be great if you could work with Sorrells and the other witnesses to get their pics and videos quickly on a public share so all of us can copy them before something happens. After that they would be safe.

Sorrells has the situation well handled, I assure you. Th video is on computer, and I am asking that it be sent to me so I might try to share it. Yes, I saw it, but as it was so small and my eyes are not what they once were, I only watched approximately 2 minutes of it.

Welcome Mr Sorrells!
Welcome Angelia!
You will be made most welcome here - do take a look around, but please do not be shy about joining in the discussion.
Angelia, from what you told me in email, there have been some major developments regarding you and the the newspaper publisher. The readers here would value your sharing these latest developments - although I realise that some of this is personal to you.
The developments are in line with what has happened before in UFOlogy - people here will confirm that. It is one of the reasons why many people suspect a 'cover up' of the UFO phenomena in general.
Once again, thanks to you both for joining 'like minds' here - you are among friends!

Oh oh ,
I guess I'm going out on a limb, Admin. Can I throw a little speculation out? Is it that the publisher is now pressuring Angelia to tone it down? I wonder who's pressuring the publisher? Excuse me for bringing it up but if it's true then doesn't it sound a little familiar... like Ty's biking buddy?

I don't like to 'quote' posts, it makes it hard to follow at times.
whomever was the poster who said this might not be the government....i would say that was a good point but its more or less the same thing.
people have been hinting around for years about a secret government , or seperate arm of our existing government. Since the one spawned the other, there is no use seperating them, our government is engaged in a prolonged campaign of psy-ops, coverup and many many financial crimes against it's citizens, umbrella'd by the blanket of 'we know whats best for you'. I would say the intent, back in the 40's was probably for the best, but at this point, we are as much their subjects as they were once ours. They (this either government or secret non government) will stop at nothing to prevent the secret getting out.
The best weapon for defense for Mr Sorrells, is publicity. That will make his case high profile, and that is what they fear the most, a high profile incident that would lead the little legitimate people's government agencies to a 'bloody glove' type piece of evidence that might tear the whole thing down.
The best defense is a good offense, and I think with everyone's help here, and the others involved, we have a good offense.
sorry to sound alarmist.....it's an alarming world !

I agree LWR,
It's true the phone caller and the night visitor may not be from the gov (but they probably are) but F-16s and large transport helicopters are! Somebody is commanding those aircraft to harass Sorrells.
Quote:
“I actually got up and looked out my window to see if I could see someone at the cattle guard. So I said if he was who he said he was, why didn’t he stop flying over my air space with all those helicopters,” Sorrells said. “And he informed me that it was not my air space — it was his. He told me if I’d quit talking about what I saw he would stop the helicopters.”
Sorrells said since that conversation, the helicopters have quit flying over his property but the F-16s haven’t slowed.
Before the conversation took place with the suspected military officer Sorrells related a late night experience with a large transport helicopter and three smaller helicopters.
“I get up at 2:30 a.m. to go to work and these helicopters kept flying over and I couldn’t sleep,” Sorrells said. “Because it was about time to get up and go to work, I just got up and went outside to see what I could.”
Sorrells said he has a spotlight on his pickup that he uses to look for coyotes.
“I went to my truck and turned on the spotlight and shined it up at them,” Sorrells said. “It was so close, I could see the pilot’s reaction. He threw up his arm to block the light. He was in one of the smaller helicopters.

I invite you all to listen to the short recording of the late US President John F Kennedy.
It was inserted into an interview we did with Project Camelot.
His 2 minute speech is inserted at the beginning of the interview. To listen, go to the top of the opening Main page of OM and click the grey colored CD Player.
Should you wish to download this. Here is my ensips link. The file name is "Nov 18-07 Project Camelot". Feel free to browse through other recorded interviews.

Angelia has given me permission to let you know what's been going on with her / the newspaper etc,.
This latest development is just awful - and stinks of what is usually used to 'cover-up' UFO phenomena in the MS media - that stench goes right back to Roswell -
-----------------------------------------------
"I think my readers would find a lot more of this sort of story interesting but my newspaper doesn't want any more stories. My boss feels it's time to move on. A city councilman here talked to the Star-Telegram and said the whole thing was an embarrassment to the town (or something to that effect.)
It has been a tough decision but I gave my two weeks notice last Thursday and my last day will be Feb. 14.
At that time, I will be unemployed so I probably will substitute teach for a while.[...]
I joined your group because I was so impressed with how nice the men were to offer to help Ricky Sorrells. I don't know how that went yesterday but I could see they were sincerely concerned about him and his situation. That was impressive and I like people that care about others.
[...] I don't want to say anything bad about the newspaper. They are just not interested any more. But it was a record sales month in the history of the E-T for JAN. so I feel good about that.
It's funny how one day I was sitting on top of a huge global story and practically the next I'm looking for a job.
Life...it's full of surprises. And, I think that's a good thing. Here's hoping there is something better around the corner.
Thanks for writing and congratulations on a very well maintained forum."
----------------------------
2nd update:
----------------------------
"I gave two weeks notice but this morning they had confiscated my computer and I was told to pack up and get out. I'm devastated and still in shock.
I was trying to direct people away from talking to me about UFOs and other information during work hours and I had forwarded emails to my home computer so I would not be dealing with that on newspaper time. But, apparently that wasn't the right thing to do either.
I've just been between a rock and a hard spot if you know what I mean.
The publisher said she didn't want me to leave with ill feelings toward the newspaper and I'm trying not to.
I'm grateful for the opportunity the newspaper gave me in employing me as a writer. I have only been writing for them 18 months and I've learned a lot but I still have a lot more to learn."
