I, too was enjoying the read until the end. The sentence near that last paragraph of greatest intrigue is <BR/><BR/>"A case is made that this class of traditions derives from observations of a so-called "auroral pillar" of unusual proportions, that may have been visible for a prolonged period of time – possibly decades or even a few centuries – as the earth experienced an excessive influx of charged particles from space." I've got to read more about "auroral pillar" and their appearance.<BR/><BR/>But that final paragraph left me with the ole Southern saying, "Do what?!!"<BR/><BR/>Thanks.<BR/>Terry ThorntonTerry Thorntonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01251750196282728118noreply@blogger.com
