There are still many fervent believers in fictitious aerial organisms popularly dubbed "rods." If you're new to this "phenomenon," this site's all about 'em.
Recently, author Rudy Rucker posted a digital photo of identical critters on his blog, accurately identifying them as streaking gnats with apparent bumps caused by wingbeats.
They've got to be sylphs or "air elementals." It's the only possible explanation.

I was fairly sympathetic to "rods" at first. No longer. And don't get me started on "orbs"...
