Spotlight in Air over DC - what is it?
My eyes | 10/31/01 - 11:30pm | Me

Posted on 10/31/2001 7:31:29 PM PST by Julliardsux

I am in Dupont Circle on the 9th Floor of an Apt building looking s.w. toward Rosslyn.
In a location that appears to be slightly north of Pentagon, there is an extremely bright spotlight in the sky. It is brighter than any I have seen before.
It is pointing N-NE and moving in a regular path.

Never seen it before - anyone know what it is?

Well, they haven't used spotlights to detect incoming planes since the advent of radar.

Umm, is it the moon? It's really bright tonight. I'm in Leesburg. I don't see a spotlight and the sky is quite clear.

Yeah, if they're riding an electrolux instead of a broom.

Perhaps they finally broke the Arc of the Covenant out of that government warehouse.

Is it a haunted house? Sometimes I've seen spotlights used to direct people to haunted houses on Halloween.

The Pentagon did ask for help from all US citizens.

It's the Angels of the Pentagon saluting the Hero's at ground zero.

It's a Halloween homing beacon for Hillery and her fellow broomstick riders.

I've been meaning to ask you for some time. Why does Juillard suck? FReepmail if you want.

Let's try that again.

The Pentagon is asking all US citizens to contribute ideas in the war against terrorism.
