Re: Cache's and Flame's
George, from my own research into the blue flame phenomena here a few things to ponder. #1. Best time to view these are during the first 10 days after the new moon with the third and sixth days being the best. #2. Every lost treasure has it's spook light. #3. Most are the size of a basketball. #4. Blue flames or balls hover just above the site, although some reports state that if in ball form, it floats off.#5. They have been known to float back to the treasure and shrink in size and sink down below the earth. #6. They have been known to emit flames out of a house. #7. Although the blue flames are known to flicker and dart like true flames, they produce no heat. #8. At times it can emit enough light to read by. #9. The ball variety has been known to follow railroad tracks. #10. Some people have heard a soft low hum like the 60 cycle hum of an electrical transformer. #11. Some only appear in foggy or rainy weather. #12. They have been referred to as "mysterious balls of fire". #13. They can appear to pulsate at times. #14.They can vanish when approached. #15. If it floats off, it usually bobs and sways. #16. They could be a phosphorescent gas. #17. They can be as small as 2 inches in diameter to three feet in diameter, but when a mass is formed of many individual lights they may assume some very bizarre shapes. #18. Some are transparent, others are opaque. #19.Ball lightening is reddish when positive, "bluish" when negative. #20. Gold is an excellent conductor of electricity and heat. #21.By transmitted light, gold glows bluish green. #22. Gold dissolved in aqua regia forms a solution containing crystals of chlorauric acid, a compound much used in photography. #23. Finally, but not the final word in this ongoing research of mine strange but true, if you stare at gold long enough, it seems to glow on it's own. Old timers said this "glow" was the cause of gold fever. Hope it helps you!
