The anomalous event that had occurred on Thursday, June 3rd 2004 may have alternative explanations other than the ones offered by the University of Washington and Whidbey Island Naval Air Station.[See Seattle Times article, link below] I am a researcher with uforc.com who has been studying this and other types of unexplained anomalies for the past 37 years. I have also been studying the effects of gravity sliding in areas of high tectonic activity that produce an enigmatic plasma ball of energy known as earthlights. (Do a Google search for more information.) To make a long story short, the information that I have been gathering from my sources in the Seattle area, suggests that the meteorite theory is not the only explanation for the anomaly reported in the early morning hours of Thursday. I received the initial report by way of a phone call that I had received only minutes after the bright light had illuminated the greater metropolitan Seattle early that morning. The fact that there was seismic activity at the time of the event further substantiates my theory. This as well as other information that I have gathered surrounding the unexplained event early Thursday morning suggests that it was not a meteorite at all...the evidence supports the hypothesis that this was what is commonly referred to as earthlights.

"...the event that occurred in the Northwest is only the precursor for a larger event that may be as yet forthcoming." - Christopher Montgomery*[see footnotes]

This phenomenon is frequently reported in Washington State especially in the Yakima Indian Reservation. These balls of energy are produced in areas of high tectonic/plate activity where the tremendous force of the plates grinding against each other emits balls of plasma derived from electrical energy that is produced by the piezoelectric effect. Although this phenomenon is not completely understood, I have identified these events. They occur as the result of gravity sliding. These geological events produce earthlights that have been seen numerous times by many eyewitnesses. They usually precede massive earthquakes of significant magnitude and register on the Richter scale. The events reportedly seen on Thursday morning were very similar to those that have been seen in Japan just prior to earthquakes of devastating proportions. The last time I have seen an earthlight of similar magnitude preceded the last major deep quake in the Seattle area. Your city lies on the northern side of the Pacific Rim, an area of high geologic activity. This is also an area where earthlights are seen in great numbers both traveling at great velocity as well as the high altitudes associated with bolides, or meteorites. These balls of plasma usually precede quakes of great magnitude; the level of activity recorded by seismographers during the event that occurred in the Northwest is only the precursor for a larger event that may be as yet forthcoming.
