Mysterious booms make Fort Wayne homes shake

Sept 2

FORT WAYNE, Ind. -- City officials have been trying to figure out just what is booming.

Residents in recent weeks have reported a series of loud noises on the city's northeastside that has caused a handful of homes to tremble.

...

He said the city began investigating the issue this week, but it has no solid leads on what is causing the sound.

...

Denise Porter-Ross, a spokeswoman for Mayor Graham Richard, said callers have not reported damage or injuries, but "it's just a little disturbing. You're hearing these noises, but you go out to investigate and nothing's there."

Ever heard of the "Kokomo Hum"? Yup - Indiana again.

From ABC News:

Reports of Mysterious Noise and Illness in Indiana

Feb. 13 — Some say it's like a diesel engine idling. Others describe it as a deep drone or fluorescent light-like buzz. And a great many people don't hear anything at all.

Complaints about the "Kokomo Hum" began in 1999, when a handful of local residents began to report a constant low-pitched rumbling noise. They say they developed a range of mysterious health problems soon after, including dizziness, diarrhea, extreme fatigue, joint and muscle pain, nosebleeds, and excruciating, unending headaches.

"I think we all know something was starting to go drastically wrong about two years ago," says LaQuita Zimmerman, a 55-year-old grandmother who has lived in Kokomo her entire life. "It went from a headache to a never-ending headache," she says. When she leaves Kokomo to visit relatives, the suffering abates, she says.

"It's been over two years now," says Maria McDaniels, who lives several miles away from Zimmerman. "We just noticed a low hum — a drone in the background. It seemed to increase in intensity in the wee hours of the night."

1. The Spirit of Eugene Debs

:shrug:

Either that or GOP Psy Ops is using Indiana to test it's mind control program. That would explain all the irrational devotion to the GOP around here ....

[Khephra]

2. I live in Indianapolis and I've heard the "Kokomo Hum"

There's also this high-pitched "Squeal" every few days too, which I've heard as far away as Richmond. I used to think it was just me, but then I started reading articles like this one. I'll tell you, finding out I'm not the only one hearing these weird noises was a major relief.

[Jackpine Radical]

20. Jeez, Kef. The rest of us

were hoping it was just you.

[Khephra]

23. Well...I don't really know what to say to that....

;-)

But seriously, the first time I heard it was actually before 1999, more like in the 80's. The noise just suddenly was THERE. At first I thought I was losing my hearing as it was so loud that it overpowered everything. Eventually it calmed down, but I've heard it occasionally ever since.

Is it natural or is it military? :shrug: No idea. But I remember how people used to make fun of us who could hear it. Since then so many people have come out saything that they hear it that it's no longer a laughing matter.

3. Drilling new bases, tunnels---more hidey holes fo cheney

spider holes for the pubs!

[whistle]

4. Dan Quayle has one of those new military sonic weapons....

...to play with and he is targeting democratic communities. Shades of Dune! MuwaaaaaaaaaaDEEB!

5. Denver Airport is my favorite!

Function: Military reserch, construction, detainment camp facilities
Levels: 7 reported
Tunnels to: Denver proper, Colorado and Rocky Mountain "safehousing", Colorado Springs, Colorado(Cheyenne Mtn), Riverton, Wyoming Notes: Constructed in 1995, the goverment and politicans were hell bent on building this airport in spite of it ending up vastly overbudget. Charges of corruption, constant construction company changes, and mass firings of teams once they had built a section of their work was reported so that no "one" group had any ida what the blueprint of the airport was. Not only did locals not want this airport built nor was it needed, but everything was done to make sure it was, period. Masonic symbols and bizarre artwork of dead babies, buring cities and women in coffins comprise an extensive mural as well as a time capsule - none of which is featured in the airport's web site section detailing the unique artwork throughout the building. DIA is reported to serve a a cover for the vast underground facilities that were built there. There are reports of elecronic/magnetic vibrations which make soome people sick and cause headaches in others. There are acrres of fenced-in areas which have barbed wire pointing into the area as of to keep things in, and small concrete stacks that resemble mini-cooling towers rise out of the acres of nowhere to apparently vent underground levels.

8. Hi seemslikeadream!

Those paintings are the murals at the Denver airport, aren't they? I remember reading about how weird they were.

[seemslikeadream]

10. Hi ellie, yes aren't they lovely!

Herre's a map of the underground bases

11. That painting

is the cover art of Dr Leonard Horowitz's Death in the Air:



Cover blurb from Midwest Book Review: "A timely and much needed contribution to our dialogue regarding the instigators of globalism with their use of coercion and terrorism.... Very highly recommended reading."

Picked it up a couple of months ago at a funky used book shop. The pages still smell like incense. "Death in the air" should smell so sweet.

[leftofthedial]

13. and don't forget the Taos Hum

in Taos NM

said to be part of the network of alien tunnels connected to DIA and Area 51 for use by the New World Order when they carry out whatever their evil plans are.

6. Things That Make Ya Go Hummmm...

Thanks for the interesting post! So much going on that could be dots to connect-- all those homing pigeons losing their navigational ability a few months back, the noises, the changing weather patterns. Fun stuff to think about.

7. This is what happens to ocean creatures when they do the

sonar exercises

I hate these people, they are sick, despicable, disgusting.

9. Yep, we're all just lab rats in the

corporate/government's laboratory of sick & twisted experiments. I swear, I don't think humans will ever evolve beyond me, me, me, me, me! Thnik about another sentient creature, human or otherwise? I doubt it.

Navy's Use of Sonar Suspected in Near-Stranding of Whales

http://www.commondreams.org/headlines04/0901-04.htm

<snip>
The Navy has acknowledged that vessels on maneuver off Hawaii in July used their sonar periodically in the 20 hours before a large pod of melon-headed whales unexpectedly came to shore in the area. The acknowledgment added to an already contentious debate over whether the sound from sonar has been causing marine mammals to strand.

<snip>

Lieutenant Commander Greg Geisen, the Navy spokesman responsible for information about the maneuver, said a Navy review of the incident still concluded that the ships were either too far from the whales or were using the sonar at the wrong time to cause the mass movement.

"There is no evidence of a relationship here between the sonar use and the whale behavior," he said.

But the newly released information from Geisen and other Navy officials -- that the ships were testing their sonar in preparation for the maneuver on the day before the whales came ashore, and early on the morning of the near-stranding -- has caused some observers to question that conclusion.

12. compendium of links to recent "mysterious boom" stories

http://signs-of-the-times.org/signs/signs_boom_supplement.htm

Take or leave the "high strangeness" as you wish, but the stories culled are to mainstream sources.

[starroute]

14. Stuff like this goes way back -- may be tiny earthquakes

http://www.gi.alaska.edu/ScienceForum/ASF8/896.html

"Moodus is an apparently unremarkable Connecticut town. except that it is the headquarters for peculiar subterranean noises. My childhood home lay a dozen miles to the north, and the noises were simply part of life's givens. I associate them with the fall season only because there was then no chance they were distant thunder, and with night only because quarries did no blasting after dark. The noises could occur any time of year or day.

"The Wangunk Indians, who lived there when the first European settlers arrived about 1670, warned their new neighbors of the peculiar sounds. Tribal meetings were called when the noises sounded, for reasons not recorded. Perhaps they considered the sounds a supernatural summons. In one Wangunk myth, an angry god created the noises by roaring through a cave.

<snip>

"Most local residents suspected earthquakes, since the ground sometimes seemed to move when the noises were hears. But only sometimes; as late as 1982, a Reader's Digest book on mysterious happenings noted, 'None of the usual signs of earthquakes accompanied the Moodus noises.'

"The Digest researchers were running a little behind science. By 1979, sensitive seismometers showed that earthquakes always accompanied the noises, but most were far too small for people to feel. Earthquakes measuring as low as minus 2 on the Richter scale generate booms at Moodus, and that's more than a hundred times less ground motion than human senses can detect. All the seismic activity came from a very small area, a spherical lump of the earth's crust about 1500 meters (4560 feet) deep and 250 meters (760 feet) in diameter."

15. That part of Ft Wayne is a strong GOP area

Who knows what type of nuts live there and what they might be doing.

[Prisoner_Number_Six]

16. With any luck Ft. Wayne will disappear into a sinkhole

I've lived there. It's a filthy, nasty place. (I was born and raised in Huntington, which is just a few minutes drive away, and Huntington is no better. Trust me.)

17. We have the "hum" here in Puget Sound.

I noticed it shortly after we moved here last year. Odd that this story is popping now.. our hum seemed to stop this summer, but has returned a few weeks ago. It sounds like a diesel idling in the distance. I assumed it was drilling for water in the numerous housing developments springing up around this area. The research I've done traces it, most likely, to an experimental program in Alaska which microwaves the atmosphere.. it's like Tessla gone wild. Can't recall the program name right now... I've lived all over California, I've stayed in Oregon, but this is the first time in my life I've experienced that "hum". God only knows what they might be subjecting us to... microwaving the atmosphere! THAT's gotta be healthy.

The hum is irritating, and can keep you awake at night.. but usually normal noise drowns it out. We also have lots of loud booms.. but we are 20 miles from Ft. Lewis, so everyone attributes those to the Army.

[JohnOneillsMemory]

18. 'Tessla gone wild'= H.A.A.R.P. Look at haarp.net to see

how the microwave charging of the ionosphere is being weaponized and can induce earthquakes and climate change.

[RivetJoint]

22. HAARP doesn't

use microwaves. The name of the projcet alone should tell you that.

[Jokerman]

19. I thought they solved the "Kokomo Hum"

I avoid local TV news like the plague so I could be wrong, but I thought they found an industrial site that was causing the hum.

[truth2power]

21. Kokomo Hum, sounds like

that Stephen King novel, I can't remember the name, where there was this mysterious sound of machinery coming from underground that could be heard thru the storm drains. What was the title?

I started that novel but never finished it. I've never finished any Stephen King novel. They scare me to death.

This is really creepy stuff.

[RivetJoint]

24. That last site you posted

"And FYI, a list of known and suspected US underground military bases: http://www.anomalies-unlimited.com/Bases.html"

Pretty far out there...

26. "Pretty far out there..."

That, or
















pretty far down there.
