   One example from my personal experience is my   
   Orca Hot Foot of the fall of 1995, which I describe on   
   http://www.nfld.com/~dalton/dtales.html   
   particularly in the subsubpage   
   http://www.nfld.com/~dalton/orca.html .   
      
   I would like to know of any parallels to this experience   
   in mythology, religion, folklore, history, oral tradition,   
   or living memory.
