So this story was in my local paper today. A bit weird to see, because
ive heard the noise the article talks about about 3 or 4 times. http://www.fortwayne.com/mld/journalgazette/news/local/9552877.htm - http://www.fortwayne.com/mld/journalgazette/news/local/95528 77.htm Personally i think its Tippmann R&D working on cold fusion powered paintguns. -------------

Investigate Nikoli Tesla , his theorys concerning EM/RF energy , draw your own conclusions . to make a big boom , you gotta,,,, 1. release an extreme amount of energy in a Very short time 2. make something go faster than the speed of sound 3. Creat a sudden and substantial void in space ------------- SL68-II , micro honed and polished .688" bore . Tuff Enuf . Widowmaker , under construction |

Has anyone thought about the remote chance of an earthquake? We had 1 here on the east coast in Jersey last year all anyone heard was a boom, they thought that the power plant blew up at first until someone from the power co called to ask that the noise was. ------------- Tippman 98 Custom 14" J&J Ceramic Barrel BT-16 Barrel kit BT-Folding stock JT USA Spectra ProShield "If you must runaway do so quietly; Screaming looks bad on the news.” (unknown) |

| I personally think the boom is coming from the underground R&D Lab of Shenko Heavy Industries. |

| The answer is obvious, Roadrunner and Wile E. Cyote have chased each other from the desert to Enos' town. The sounds are various Cyote set traps being tripped, no doubt missing the roadrunner by inches, yet managing to hit the cyote full force. Wouldn't a 10 ton anvil shake a house just a little if dropped from a nearby roof? |

Anyone ever heard of the Blue Angels. They were flying over my town and one went super-sonic "accidentally." Yeah, there were a few broken windows around. (note sarcasm) -------------

Actually the city claims theyve narrowed it down to a few idustrial
operations near the river where most people hear it. Theyre not saying
which company is to blame, but there is quite an industrial section
down there.
