Reply #90: I certainly couldn't tell you, but it's really interesting to watch.

It appears on this little traveled dirt road and looks like someone walking in the distance carrying an old kerosene lantern that sways back and forth. Then it might suddenly disappear only to reappear a little closer or a little farther away. If you drive towards it, it seems to disappear, but people behind you can still see it. At times it would appear to be two or more lights in either a vertical or horizontal row. It has been studied by the Army Corps of Engineers, but they had no explanation for it. My family knew some of the old folks in the surrounding area who told of seeing the light before highways were built in the area and cars were common.
