Today is July 6. I live near Atlanta Georgia along with my mother and father. This morning around 9:30am my father called me and said I should call my grandfather who lives near Altamont NY (near Albany) because he saw a UFO last night along with two of my uncles who were all hanging out at one of my uncle's house in Guilderland NY.

My grandfather had a close encounter with a UFO in 1971. He's a straight shooter. He's a member of the NRA, doesn't drink, and he's a judge. He's the most non-BS type of guy I've ever met to this day. Here is the report I filled for him after gathering notes from him regarding his 1971 encounter which Peter Davenport let me file "for him" because my grandfather isn't that good with computers:

I called my grandfather and he told me as much as he could. He said it was around 7:30pm last night (7/6). The sun was setting but the sky was still some what lite. One of my uncles Ron pointed out something in the sky. It was high in the sky just above the tall tree line. They said it was larger than a star, more like the size of Venus or another planet when you can see it in the sky. The only thing was this object was moving slowly upward and to the north. Then an object they described as a "rod" which was reddish-brown in color shot directly underneath the original bright glowing object at a very high rate of speed.

They then continued to watch the original object move slowly up higher and higher (sometimes stopped and hovered) before it was out of sight. My uncle Ron got some binoculars. He's the only witness I have yet to speak with but I will shortly (sometime today when he returns my call).

My grandfather is a plane/helicopter expert. He's been a pilot for several decades. He swears this was not a plane, nor a helicopter. I rarely hear my grandfather "giggle" but this sighting so spooked him that he giggled and said "what ever this was it was really weird Eric."

I'm calling the Albany news channels to see if anyone else reported these objects. I will post more details as I get them.

Maybe you can go there and find a military base, the watervliet arsenal seems the closest, and have another meeting and talk for 99% of 1 hour and you can school the bigwigs there.

Perhaps. Or you could change your eye stabbing avatar and not worry about me...? I've got the FAA looking into this sighting.

Minnesota, in all of her posts, is clearly trying to appear intellectualy superior. Fails everytime, and only make herself look like a tool. Ignore her.

How great is that. Thanks for letting us know that the FAA doesn't even deal with UFO sightings.

I guess they do for some people, apparently.

It kind of reminds us all to get our facts in order before we open our mouths.

Al Pacino once said in Glengarry Glen Ross, "You never open your mouth unless you know what the shot is."

Yes, also some people tie them together with fishing line so they stay together "in formation" if you will.

Please let us all now when the FAA calls you back after they finish their big investigation for you.

This is not intended to be cruel by any means.

The OP basically was warned for calling me names.

When you post threads and stories on here that's fine. But when people dissect the story and it doesn't add up, don't get upset about it.

I feel personally that most people here, not everyone, some people are appreciating this thread for what's it's worth.

I also feel that most people are really tired of the 3 party ufo sighting. My friend saw this and told me about it, so I figured that I'd tell you all type of story with no pictures or video threads, you know them well. Also, when you start other threads seriously and they don't add up, your credibility doesn't add up for your next thread.

I'm not mentioning any names or threads.

OH, well. Keep looking up everyone.
