Disownedsky:
Weirdly, I’m working on an article on this very issue for a magazine. I’ll update closer to publication.

Erehwon:
Many thanks for this - anything Lovecraftian is always welcome here!

Euphemystic:
Yeah, Hutchinson’s stuff is pretty interesting. I may do a blog post on him one of the days for people who want to know more.

Hmm, the “sprites” that form over lightning storms look like jellyfish but you can’t see them with the naked eye.

John Hutchison may have made a floating plasma with his Tesla coils, see http://www.hutchisoneffect.ca , as well as levitation and altered metals. A sort of real life Buckaroo Banzai, sort of.

I still have my money on Phylos the Thibetan’s “one substance” and “night side of nature” to explain everything, Theosophical prig though he may be.

Not relevant to this story, but you all might be interested in the March 7 story here of jellyfish-like UFOs. Seriously, http://rigint.blogspot.com/

Sounds remarkably like some of the “orbs” seen in Paul Bennewitz’ home. I wonder if someone has figured out how to make these….
