UFOs über England - IFOs die unmöglich das sein können, was sie aber doch sind!

Reichlich Neues vom Tage, wie immer - ufologische Indiskretion auch Ehrensache/Mythologie-Entwicklung: Es hat so kommen müssen - Jetzt die UFOs zur Asia-SoFi 2009!

Die Wahrheit - Jenseits von Top Secret: 

Alles hat seine Zeit, auch Fragen zu stellen hat seine Zeit. Ob es die richtigen Fragen auch sein werden, wer weiß...? Es gehört aber schon einiges an Ablenkung dazu, um ja ewig die UFO-Thematik frisch zu halten: z.B. die Frage, ob UFOs nun fremde Raumschiffe oder ein bizarres Naturphänomen sind (Sie werden zugeben, diese Frage haben Sie doch schon sehr oft vernommen). Die Antwort ist ganz einfach, so oder so: 

Sind sind beides NICHT, sondern ganz schlicht nicht-erkannte ´Naturphänomene´ wie der Planet Jupiter am Nachthimmel und wenig-komplizierte, künstliche Objekte wie Himmelslaternen oben am Firmament. Die Majorität der UFO-Sichtungen geht weltwelt und schon immer auf erstaunlich-simple Ereignisse zurück - und es ist noch nicht einmal ein Geheimnis daraus gemacht worden, weswegen es schon sehr verwunderlich ist, wie Idee z.B. in Richtung ´Raumschiffe oder Geheimflugzeuge´ nicht aufkommen, aber sich unvernünftig lange halten konnten! Dies geht auf die falsche Einstellung zurück, all diese ´UFO-Lichter sind militärische Flugzeuge´ (sind sie aber NICHT {allein dieser Mythologie könnte man sich lange Zeit widmen, wenn einem langeweilig wie sonst nichts ist}) - geboren aus der Ohnmacht heraus, mit dem Thema richtig umzugehen können, weil man nicht alle IFOs kennt. Sie wissen ja Bescheid, Stichwort: Ohnmacht an oberster Stelle. Natürlich, es gibt noch ein paar andere Dinge als UFO-Erzeuger mehr, aber die sind jetzt nicht wirklich tragische Auslöser für UFO-Mysterien - oder würden Sie Vögel oder Fliegen auf Bilder unerwarteteter Fotoobjekte nun ein naturwissenschaftliches Drama nennen? Sehen Sie, die Frage ob UFOs nun fremde Raumschiffe oder ein bizarres Naturphänomen sind ist sogar bewusst falsch gestellt worden, um die darauf folgende einfache Sachantwort künstlich zu verbergen/erst gar nicht aufkommen zu lassen - und deswegen ist diese Frage auch schon Jahrzehne alt.

UFOs über England... IFOs die unmöglich das sein können, was sie aber doch sind...

Der ´Swindon Advertiser´ ( http://www.swindonadvertiser.co.uk/... ) hatte nun diese Geschichte aufgesetzt: 

>UFOs turn out to be lanterns launched for party

Neighbours who were convinced a UFO had flown into Swindon airspace can relax - an explanation has been found. People in Pinehurst had complained of seeing mystery shapes in the skies on Saturday night. Andy Wood, from Keswick Road, Park South, contacted the Advertiser to set the record straight. "It was me," said Andy. "We were having a party and we set off these sky lanterns. They were an absolutely beautiful sight. Seems like people have got a bit carried away about it." The 47-year-old father-of-two said the family had enjoyed hearing increasingly imaginative tales of extra-terrestrial activity buzzing around the Pinehurst community. He said: "My sister-in-law went into a shop the next day and the shopkeeper was talking about some bloke who had chased these lights all the way to Coate Water - convinced they were UFOs. Then the next thing is it´s in the paper, on the radio - everyone´s talking about it."

In yesterday´s Adver we featured eyewitness accounts of several residents who were mesmerised by the floating orbs of light. They described how the lights formed an arrow shape, so were unlikely to be lanterns {!!!}. But Andy said: "We sent up about six in a row and they just stayed in this shape - it was really wonderful to look at. I got the idea from a wedding I went to when they let off 50 all at once. That was really spectacular." Andy decided to set off the lanterns as a surprise for his two brothers and nephew, who all celebrate their birthday on the same day. He said: "It´s certainly going to be a party everyone will remember. It´s been quite amusing - all the stories that have come out about it. It certainly wouldn´t stop me using them again. I think they´re great."

The shapes were seen as far away as Walcot, as Dave Page said. Mr Page said: "My mate pointed out these orange shapes to me and there was something really strange about the way they were moving. They were too far away to make out exactly what they were but they were making a really odd shape." Daniel Morgan from Pinehurst also had a theory about what the shapes could be. He had heard that a 300 gram piece of cheese was launched into space by West Country Cheese makers in Britain to mark the anniversary of the first moon landing 40 years ago. And the 29-year-old said: "I thought it might be that cheese they sent into space. It was supposed to land somewhere near here, so I thought that would explain it."<

>UFO spotted over Newton

A stargazer has described how she spotted a strange light in the sky over Newton-le-Willows on Sunday evening (August 2). Jude Flint, of Cairn Brae, Newton, says she and her husband Danny were stunned to see an orange cube-shaped UFO hurtling across the sky shortly before 9pm. She said: "I´m very sceptical about men from mars, but my husband and I are completely baffled about this and want an explanation. We also wondered who else may have spotted it. We are both intelligent professional people who are not attention seekers nor sci-fi fans - just two very curious and baffled people. Hope you can help solve our mystery? I´m sure there is a very logical explanation."<

 

´Too fast for a lantern. Is it a UFO?´ war die Headline im ´The Star´ ( http://www.thestar.co.uk/news/Orbli... ) aus South Yorskire:

 

>A woman from Shiregreen claims she saw a bright orange orb-like object that was hovering outside her house. She also filmed the object as it appeared to move from the side of her house towards her back garden. The woman, a cash and carry supervisor who does not wish to be named, said: "I saw it at the side of the house and I had to run to the back of the house to film it on my phone. Apparently the same thing was seen in Dore at around 10.30pm that night."

There has been an increase in sightings such as this in recent years, a fact Dr David Clarke attributes to more and more people releasing Chinese lanterns at weddings and other celebrations. But when this theory was put to the 31-year-old, she said: "No, it wasn´t a Chinese lantern, it was moving steadily and then went off - it was much faster than a Chinese lantern {vielleicht nur nach dem stark-defokussierten Video am Anfang, aber wenn die Image zurückgefahren wird und als schwacher Lichtpunkt zurückbleibt, dann ist es auf einmal wieder ganz normal}."

Is it a Chinese lantern? Is it a UFO? Join the debate by adding your comment below.<

 

Im selben Massenblatt gab es noch die Geschichte "Files which lift the lid on flying saucers" ( http://www.thestar.co.uk/news/Files... ):

 

>Ministry of Defence top secret files and Winston Churchill´s flying saucer committee - Sheffield´s UFO expert Dr David Clarke revealed a world of unidentified intrigue when he spoke to Star reporter Rachel Clegg:

Over the past two weeks across South Yorkshire, there have been sightings of strange, orange glowing objects in the sky. "There were twenty or so orange globes coming up in sets of four getting to a certain point then moving in different directions," said one UFO spotter. "I saw three globes in the sky with an orange glow," said another. These are among tens of thousands of reports of UFO sightings each year, most of which can be easily explained. Some, however, remain a mystery. That´s according to Dr Dave Clarke, senior lecturer at Sheffield Hallam University and UFO expert. Dr Clarke has written eight books on the subject, his ninth book will be published next month by Her Majesty´s Stationary Office. Last year he was asked to be a government consultant, cataloguing thousands of the Ministry of Defence´s declassified UFO reports for the National Archives. We meet in an Italian cafe near Sheffield Cathedral. It seems an unlikely place to rendezvous with a government consultant who deals with previously top secret files from Whitehall.

Surely we should be in a smoky bar, or industrial complex car park, as if I was meeting paranormal investigator Fox Mulder, from television´s the X-Files. In many respects, Dr Clarke is very Mulder-like. He reaches into his rucksack for a handful of official documents - the real, British equivalent of ´X-Files´. "I brought these for you to see," he says, placing them carefully on the table. The top of each document reads: The Ministry of Defence, Main Building, Whitehall. Stamped above the cold font is TOP SECRET, in red ink. These files are now available to the public, the MoD have been releasing them since 2001. There are thousands of them," says Dr Clarke. But the two files on the table are particularly interesting. One is a memo from Sir Winston Churchill, dated 1951, which reads: "What does all this stuff about flying saucers amount to? What can it mean? What is the truth? Let me have a report at your convenience." The other is a copy of the study relating to Churchill´s memo, led by the Flying Saucer Working Party, set up in response to the then Prime Minister´s demands. Churchill´s memo had already been released, but Dr Clarke was determined to see the study relating to the memo. "I asked the MoD but they told me to ´go away´, basically. I kept piling on the pressure and, after giving up, an envelope appeared at my house, I opened up and it had TOP SECRET stamped on it."

The study - described as the ´Holy Grail´ of British ´ufology´ - reports on the findings of the Flying Saucer Party, the brainchild of Sir Henry Tizard, the scientific adviser who was pivotal in the development of radar and one of Churchill´s key advisers during the Second World War. Unlike the fictional X Files, however, the study showed that most of the sightings could be explained by natural events or regular aircraft. But Dr Clarke added: "I am a sceptic but there are some things that can´t be explained." One of Dr Clarke´s inexplicable South Yorkshire encounters was a ghostly sighting during the building of the Stocksbridge bypass in September 1987. He recalled: "Security guards working while the bypass was being built claimed they had seen a hooded figure. They tried to get a vicar to perform an exorcism at the site and one man ended up off work with stress. The police went up there to investigate and, while they were there, they heard thumps on the car." The story was covered in the BBC´s Strange But True series.

Another eerie tale relates to a Bradway farmer who looked out of her window one January morning to see a huge triangular object sat in the field, with other ´objects´ surrounding it. The sighting was investigated by an RAF Squadron Leader but nothing was found. Dr Clarke has been fascinated by the unexplained since he was a boy. "We went up to Scotland when I was 5 or 6 and I was drawing pictures of the Loch Ness Monster then," he said. His curriculum vitae reads like fiction: he co-founded the Independent UFO Network and worked on the board of the European Journal of UFO Abduction Studies. He also worked on The Star in the mid 1990s, when all stories regarding the surreal or supernatural would be directed his way, or to "The Spooky Desk," as his colleagues would refer to him. He has a PhD in English Cultural Traditional and Language from the University of Sheffield, lectures in journalism at Sheffield Hallam, co-founded the Independent UFO Network. As for the orange objects, Dr Clarke says: "They´re probably just Chinese Lanterns."

- Dr David Clarke´s book, The Inside Story of Real Life Sightings, will be published at the end of August.<

Buzz Aldrin stokes the mystery of the monolith on Mars

An image of what appears to be a mysterious rocky monument on Mars has excited space junkies around the world.

The 'monolith', was snapped from 165miles away using a special high resolution camera on board the Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter.

After being published on the website Lunar Explorer Italia, it set tongues wagging with space buffs questioning whether there was once life on the Red Planet.

How the experts see it: The original HiRISE satellite image supplied to Mail Online by the University of Arizona showing a close up of what appears to be a 'monolith' on Mars

article-1204254-05f2e104000005dc-903-634x264

How the science junkies saw it: Three images of the 'monolith' (close, closer, closest) as they appeared on the website Lunar Explorer Italia 

But scientists at the University of Arizona, who captured the original image, reckon it's just an unremarkable boulder, which could measure up to five metres across.

Yisrael Spinoza, a spokesman for the HiRISE department of the university's Lunar and Planetary Laboratory, gave Mail Online the original image so readers can make up their own minds.

He said: 'It would be unwise to refer to it as a "monolith" or "structure" because that implies something artificial, like it was put there by someone for example.

From further away: The circled area show where the rectangular feature was discovered

 

'In reality it's more likely that this boulder has been created by breaking away from the bedrock to create a rectangular-shaped feature.'

The image seems to resemble the black monolith that appears during key moments of man's evolution in the Stanley Kubrick film 2001: A Space Odyssey.

The original image, taken last July, was published again this week on the University of Arizona's HiRISE website on the 'spotlight' page which seems to have led to the renewed interest.

'Is it possible that there used to be an ancient civilization on Mars?' former Montreal radio presenter David Tyler asked on his blog.

'Is it possible that NASA already knows the answer? Could this be the final straw for disclosure?' 

Phobos monolith

A monolith found on Phobos (l) was described recently by Buzz Aldrin, pictured here in his Apollo space suit

But speaking about the satellite picture scientist Alfred McEwen, the principal investigator from the University of Arizona's HiRISE department, said: 'There are lots of rectangular boulders on Earth and Mars and other planets. 

'Layering from rock deposition combined with tectonic fractures creates right-angle planes of weakness such that rectangular blocks tend to weather out and separate from the bedrock.'

Fuel was added to the flames after Buzz Aldrin, the second man to walk on the Moon, alluded to a similar monolith detected on Mars' moon Phobos.

Speaking on a U.S. cable television channel last week he said: 'We should visit the moons of Mars.

'There's a monolith there - a very unusual structure on this little potato shaped object that goes around Mars once every seven hours.

An image sent by the Viking spacecraft in 1976 seemed to show a human-like face on the surface of Mars

'When people find out about that they are going to say, "Who put that there? Who put that there?" Well the universe put it there, or if you choose God put it there.'

In 2007 the Canadian Space Agency funded a study for an unmanned mission to Phobos known as PRIME (Phobos Reconnaissance and International Mars Exploration).

The building-sized monolith is the main proposed landing site but not because scientists suspect UFO activity. They believe the object is a boulder exposed relatively recently in an otherwise featureless area of the asteroid-like moon.

PRIME investigator Dr Alan Hildebrand said it could answer questions about the moon's composition and history.

'If we can get to that object, we likely don’t need to go anywhere else,' he told his science team.

The fact it seems to resemble a rectangular monument could be due to simulacra. This is where humans see familar images in random surroundings such as the famous 'Face of Mars', which is actually just a hilly and cratered area.

Bilder machen Phänomene - angeblich 

Der `Telegraph´ ( http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/new... ) bereitete diese komische - an sich - Geschichte auf: 

>´UFO´ photographed ´tracking´ RAF Hercules - An amateur photographer believes he captured a UFO tracking an RAF Hercules as it approached RAF Lyneham in Wiltshire

John Powell, 56, claims an unusual silver orb was following the military craft as it came in to land at the base. The retired school teacher was gardening at his home in nearby Westbury when he noticed the sun glinting off the circular surface. "I don´t believe in things from outer space but that thing was definitely tracking the plane," he said. "My neighbour was in the garden at the time and I wanted to shout to them, but I didn´t want to say ´there´s a flying saucer in the sky´ so I didn´t say anything in the end." Mr Powell, who taught computer sciences in Belfast for 30 years, added: "I thought at the time this is too good to miss but I didn´t think the picture would come out as good as this. If I were to say it was a shot in a million I don´t think I´d be exaggerating. I´m desperately curious to find out what it is. Since I´ve taken the photo I´ve been on some UFO websites and there´s nothing remotely like this with an RAF plane being tracked."

The incident happened as John was gardening at 3.45pm on July 22. RAF Lyneham is the military base where the bodies of fallen British soldiers are flown back into the UK on Hercules planes but there were no repatriations that day. Ministry of Defence bosses said they would not be investigating because they so not consider it a "potential threat". A spokesman said: "The MoD examines reports solely to establish whether UK airspace may have been compromised by hostile or unauthorised military activity. Unless there is evidence of a potential threat, there is no attempt to identify the nature of each sighting reported." <

 

Nachgedanken WW: 

Eigentlich eine arg komische Geschichte, deren Pendel mehr in Richtung unerwartetes Foto-Objekt-Fall ausschlägt (wie übrigens das Foto ja auch aussieht, wie von einem im Nachhinein erst entdeckten ´Objekt´), als in Richtung "objektiv-gesehenes und deswegen-fotografiertes Objekt am Himmel hinter dem Flugzeug"! Es klipp und klares, sondern nur interpretierbares Statement gibt es in dieser Richtung - KEIN, ich habe dies eindeutig hinter dem Flugzeug gesehen und meinen Kumpel darauf aufmerksamgemacht, als ich es fotografierte. NEIN, diese Aussage gibt es nicht. In der UFO-Hysterie der Presse in England wundert mich diese sehr schwache Nummer nicht, ein Vogel-Foto wie andere auch aus der unerwartete Fotoobjekt-Kategorie; nur das jetzt ein großes echter Vogel mit stählernen Federn durch die Luft zieht während ein kleines biologisches Vögelchen gerade durchs Bild zieht. Der Fotofokus selbst lag auf der Maschine, was man ja anhand deren Schärfedetails erkennen kann. Aufgrund seiner geringen Dimensionen und seiner Bewegungunscharfe gibt es selbst am echten Vogel nichts mehr zu sehen.

 

Und dann wurde von und mit ITN mit ´Kanonen auf Spatzen geschossen´! Zum frühen Abend hin kam die Geschichte "MoD denies UFO sighting ´compromised UK airspace´" ( http://itn.co.uk/c581cc8e1e2e37b0e9... ) hoch: 

>The Ministry of Defence has said it will not be investigating photographs apparently showing an RAF plane being followed by an unidentified flying object. The pictures, captured by retired teacher John Powell, show a large round object hovering in the air above the RAF Hercules plane as it came in to land. The normally sceptical Powell said that he reached for the camera after spotting the object and noted that it appeared to be in pursuit of the plane.

He said: "I don´t believe in things from outer space but that thing was definitely tracking the plane." Mr Powell, 56, added: "I thought at the time this is too good to miss but I didn´t think the picture would come out as good as this. I´m desperately curious to find out what it is." The Ministry of Defence has insisted the incident does not require investigation, as there was no evidence that UK airspace had been compromised.

Powell took the photograhs on the afternoon of July 22nd from his home is Westbury in Wiltshire, several miles from RAF Lyneham.< 

Und immer noch kein Wort, wenn da ein ´UFO´ tatsächlich gewesen wäre, von dem Piloten sowie der Crew der RAF-Maschine dazu, auch nicht vom RAF-Stützpunkt am Boden dazu! Niemand interessiert sich überhaupt, wie sich das hypothetische ´UFO´ eigentlich aus der Affäre gezogen hat, wie es Federn ließ und abzog. Seltsam, um diese Frage kümmert sich keiner, erst recht nicht der Fotograf, der viel eher darum bemüht ist das Image zu erzeugen, er habe aktuell das Objekt am Himmel gesehen und dann deswegen auch fotografiert, während die Aufnahmesituation doch eine zufällige ´Vogel-fliegt-vorbei-Lage´ zeigt. Mich wundert nicht das Bild, mich wundert Objektiv das Tamtam darum! Aber klar, wir leben in besonderen UFO-Zeiten in England auf jeden Fall... 

"Pilot baffled after spotting ´mystery UFO´ over Norwich skies" war die sensationelle Headline in der ´Norwich Evening News´ ( http://www.eveningnews24.co.uk/cont... ) hierzu: 

>A helicopter pilot has been left baffled by an "unidentified orange light" spotted over Norwich. Andrew Goodchild, from Sprowston, spotted the light just before 10pm on Monday night. The 42-year-old, who has flown since 1991, first spotted the light out of his lounge window {hmm, nur durch das Fenster seiner Bude privat daheim und nicht im ´Kampfeinsatz´...}. He said at first he thought it was a low flying helicopter but then realised that the light was "unusual" {hmm, auch kein Grund eine Beule in die Hose zu kriegen!}. Mr Goodchild said: "The light had a bright central portion with an orange halo around it. It looked similar to a landing light of a helicopter, but bright orange. Looking toward the direction of travel, we could see another orange light which appeared further away because it was dimmer and smaller. The sighting was intriguing. I have never seen anything like it. It looked like the same colour as a street lamp - orange sodium. The lights were a little unnerving. Has anyone else seen them? I fly regularly at night and see all manner of night lights and atmospheric conditions, but this sighting is unique to me and I would love to find out what I and my wife observed."

Aus für gefährlichen Party-Spaß auch im Brückenkopf-Park´ hieß es in den ´Aachener Nachrichten´:

>Jülich. Es ist ein schöner, beinahe 2000 Jahre alter asiatischer Brauch, der sich auch in unseren Gefilden großer Beliebtheit erfreute. Bei Hochzeitsfeiern und großen Festen war das Aufsteigen von Sky-Laternen, romantische Papierlaternen mit denen man gute Wünsche und Hoffnungen gen Himmel schickt, oft der Höhepunkt eines rauschenden Festes. Das Prinzip dieser Wunschlampen ist recht einfach: In einer Art umgestülpten Papiertüte wird ein Brennkörper entzündet und die Lampe steigt dadurch wie ein Heißluftballon in die Luft. Nun hat das Land Nordrhein-Westfalen ein Aufsteigeverbot für diese Flugobjekte erlassen: Zu gefährlich sind die Flugkörper, die sich leicht entzünden können und dann wie ein Feuerball auf die Erde fallen.

Geschah dies in Asien vor zwei Jahrtausenden bereits auch schon, sind heutzutage die Auswüchse der modernen Zivilisation im Weg - fällt eine brennende Himmelslaterne auf eine Strohballen oder eine Markise ist ein gefährlicher Großbrand möglich, bei dem auch Menschen zu schaden kommen können. Obwohl erst jetzt ein generelles Verbot der Wunschlampen erlassen wird, waren dem Partyspaß schon vor langer Zeit klare Grenzen gesetzt: "Die Bezirksregierungen Düsseldorf und Köln hatten bereits vor dem NRW-Verbot eine Allgemeinverordnung erlassen, die das Steigenlassen dieser Flugkörper nur in Ausnahmefällen erlaubte", erklärt Hans Pinell vom Ordnungsamt in Jülich.

Wollte eine Hochzeitsgesellschaft ein Sky-Laternen Spektakel veranstalten, so musste bei der Bezirksregierung zunächst ein Antrag gestellt werden, der in der Regel abgelehnt wurde, weiß Pinell zu berichten. "Zu recht, denn denn die Sky-Laternen sind nicht nur ein netter Party-Spaß, sondern überaus gefährlich. Sie sind ungesteuerte Flugkörper mit Eigenantrieb und bringen unkalkulierbare Risiken mit sich. Die fliegende Laterne kann zu einer echten Gefahr für den Flugverkehr werden. Zudem kann niemand kontrollieren, wo sie hinfliegen. Sind sie einmal in der Luft, steigen sie bis zu 500 Meter hoch und fliegen viele Kilometer weit. Nicht auszudenken, was geschehen könnte, wenn sie über einem trockenen Feld herunter kämen", erklärt Pinell. Auch im Brückenkopf-Park haben Event-Veranstalter die bunten Lampions gerne als besonderes Highlight und zur Abrundung eines Festivals in den Sternenhimmel steigen lassen. Aufgrund der neuen Bestimmungen werde dies nun nicht mehr geschehen, versicherte Parkmitarbeiter Hans-Josef Bülles. Auch die Betreiber des Parks wissen um die Gefahren die von dem Partyspaß ausgehen und werden darauf achten, dass die Himmelslaternen nicht mehr gestartet werden.

Das ist auch besser: Wer zukünftig trotz des Verbotes die Laternen steigen lässt, begeht eine Ordnungswidrigkeit und kann sich auf eine saftige Geldstrafe gefasst machen. Mit bis zu 50.000 Euro Bußgeld müssen Personen rechnen, die Laternen trotz des Verbotes in den Himmel steigen lassen, informiert Pinell.<

´Himmelslaterne löste Großeinsatz aus: Miniheißluftballon sorgt immer wieder für Aufregung´ meldete die ´Wiener Zeitung´  

>Graz. (vw) Am Montag löste eine sogenannte Himmelslaterne (oder auch Glückslaterne genannt) einen Großeinsatz von Polizei und Feuerwehr in der Oststeiermark aus. Augenzeugen hielten das rauchende Flugobjekt (das durch ein darin montiertes Feuer zum Aufsteigen gebracht wird) für einen in Not geratenen Heißluftballon und alarmierten die Einsatzkräfte. Daraufhin machten sich 65 Personen und ein Flugzeug (vergeblich) auf die Suche. Die Suche wurde erst abgebrochen, als weitere Zeugen andeuteten, dass es sich um eine Himmelslaterne handeln könnte.

"Miniheißluftballone, die höher als 150 Meter aufsteigen, sind in Österreich dem Luftfahrtgesetz nach verboten", berichtete die Austro Control Flugsicherung, "da die Brandgefahr hoch ist und es zur Kollision mit Sport- und Kleinflugzeugen kommen kann." Der aus China stammende Brauch der Glücksslaternen wird zu einem Problem aufgrund der Brand- und Verletzungsgefahr. Deswegen setzt sich das Kuratorium für Verkehrssicherheit (KfV) für eine Umsetzung eines Gesetzesentwurfs ein, der den Verkauf der Himmelslaternen verbietet.<

 

+++ Verkauf der Himmelslaternen verbietet ! - Verkauf der Himmelslaternen verbietet ! +++ - ... Dieser Hall der Worte, wunderbar! 

Dies sind effektive Worte, die man in Stein meiseln sollte - und viel wichtiger in Handlungen umsetzen!
