The Pine Bush, NY Phenomenon Is Alive and Well On 18 December, 1999, Bruce Cornet took Herm Fischer, a colleague from California, on a tour of the Wallkill River Valley, where he had conducted seven years of research on the Pine Bush Phenomenon. Because the area had not experienced much Anomalistic Observational Phenomena (AOP) activity during the past two years (based on rare sightings), he had hopes but no emotionally-bound expectations that they would be lucky enough to see an AOP, let alone be treated to a mind-bending performance. After touring the valley, taking many pictures, and talking to residents, Cornet and Fischer settled down for several hours of night watching from the edge of a farm field near the old Jewish Cemetery on Rte 52. All they saw were conventional aircraft. At about 8:40 disappointed they began their trip back home. They drove to the town of Walden on Rte. 52, and then took Rte 208 south to I-84, which crosses New York State from west to east.
