I know amongst the mainstream scientist they are leaning towards tectonics, or geo-magnetism, and recent uptick in solar activity. I have looked at the plots, and IMO solar activity, and geomagnetics, van allen belts, the aurora et al. Seem to make the most sense. For example, Amarillo sits atop the caprock. This is a huge, thick plate in the center of the continent, and is the foundation of the great plains region. It is an extremely solid, and calm area geologically speaking. If there is something going on that is making the caprock "creak, and groan." eluding to a possible fracture, or something I think we're in way bigger trouble than imagined.
So, I think solar activity, and geomagnetics make more sense simply applying occams razor. If the caprock were shifting it would be felt, and there would be seizmic recordings. The ground has been still, as usual, and the "sounds" heard here were definitely of a celestial origin from the perspective of the observer. Since there isn't any increase in siezmic activity to account for the anomaly locally the increase in solar activity just makes more sense.

Oh Mama what I continue to be amused by is those who think I am their peer or maybe even subordinate. Let me clue you in and risk the consequences of bragging on myself. I was raised on a ranch in Texas where I could do most things well by the time I was 12; I am a former Marine Corp Officer who went on to get his Structural Engineering Degree from UCSB and MBA from Stanford and this was ground I had covered by 1979 when I was 30. I have been a commercial banker, gaming facility developer, farmer, rancher and have been at the head of a dozen companies I worked for, owned and helped. I was friends of Tim Leary, Sterling Hayden, Ayn Rand, Lucy Ball and a very long list of outstanding human beings of which are all dead and now have no equals. In my 58 years I have lived 4 lives with 4 wives and 4 children. I have made, lost and made again many millions. What? You think because I mingle in here with these clerks that I am one of them? Does Bill or Grey or one of these think I am their peer or one of their minions or followers because I waste my time here? I am leaving the USA for a hundred reasons, any 3 would be enough and the only reason I have not left yet is because of my children and because I continue to gather resources Vs spend resources. The Gold and Silver I switched out my Stocks for in 2002 for continues grow in value and to this moment it has been to my favor to hold tight. So, you want to tell me?? You want to advise me?? Look to your own house Mama.

Phew. Okay okay. I have been trying to keep up. I guessed I missed a page.
I thing you are absolutely correct when you say this.
"Our Understanding of our reality and the Universal Laws have been conditioned first and foremost.
I have watched the beginning ten minutes of the video. It annoyed me initially they did not introduce the speaker and set up 'the problem she announces she is seeking "the answer". But yes the first few minutes are full of interesting information. Scary stuff about the increase in cosmic radiation.
It seems to me worth a watch. Thanks for posting!
EDIT: I will watch. Promise!edit on 14-2-2012 by Tallone because: (no reason given)

Mama, Mama, don't get to love your sources. Take something from them, yes, but not treat them as the answer to all. Even experts bicker between each other, set up camps, and then turn them into fortresses. It is what academic type life is all about. It isn't any less true in the sciences.
Also keep in mind although she has a lot of astonishing things to say she like all good researchers has drawn on the theory and findings of others. Sometimes its good to look to see what else is out there to add to the picture.
We are not attempting to understand the cosmos at least not in this thread. We are exploring the possibility, the very strong likelihood - or not (!), the genuine reported strange sounds constitute a warning to those in the localities they are heard. Questions relevant might be; Warnings of what? Why? Intended or part of a natural force?
I think the video may have relevance in particular to the why and intentional/unintentional questions.
