It does seem highly suspect that all these things happened coincidentally, considering for over 24 hours the news played Chilean miner rescue footage. Not one blip on the radar about things flying over NYC? What is the angle here? Let's stop looking at this from an is it real or not point of view. Let's start over from the beginning and look at what was ignored, there must be something we're missing because none of the "explanations" actually explain why this happened.

There is a 100% chance of rain over Manhattan. There are large rain clouds currently over head, and chance of thunderstorms. The airliners are probably being told to fly above the clouds/storm, so you don't see any.
UFO? NYC kids say no, mysterious floating orbs were escaped balloons from teacher's engagement party

When I said reaching, I wasn't referring to the video...
Then what were you referring to exactly? Show me my errors.

I've been seeing post after post from you trying to knock what anyone else says and as soon as someone buries your rebuttal with any kind of facts, you move on to the next attempt to poke holes in other people's side of the debate or want to argue over things that are irrelevant to what people DID see.
WHAT FACTS??? Show me facts... I haven't seen any!
All I've been seeing is believer after believer knocking down any and every explanation and information that is brought forward. It's a never ending denial from your side.

Nobody is talking about the plane and calling it a UFO, at least not the one you are making claims about.
That is why I asked a simple question... why did they show a video of an aircraft turning and flying away when talking about balloons? It was a simple question, and you told me I am reaching....
What is your point? You have nothing but denial.

I, as I'm sure others on this thread, feel like you are reaching to debunk this in any way you can. It is as of today, still unidentified! Stop arguing over semantics and get into the heart of the debate if you want to be taken seriously, which you consistently complain that what you are saying isn't being taken as such.
What the heck are you talking about... not only did I provide very good video of jet lights flying at night that look exactly similar to the night lights over manhattan, but I also found images of balloons, resized them, and pasted them next to a cluster of balloons someone said was a UFO and showed how they look similar, AND I brought forward reason and logic explaining why people mistakenly confused balloons for ufos.... and you have the freaking nerve to tell me to get into the heart of the debate... and I'm reaching????
I even did calulations and estimations of the speed of the lights! Full with illustrations and all... what has anyone else done? NOTHING
What have you done? Nothing but deny... and tell people they are reaching..
There is no words for your level of ignorance.edit on 14-10-2010 by 0ne10 because: (no reason given)

Otherwise I'm still unsure, where is MMN his opinion seems pretty balanced and outlook but I'm sure it's a balloon or led kite
Hmmm, now I beg to differ. Evacuated was most CERTAINLY mentioned.
