Three red lights over the San Diego area - IT'S A HOAX YET AGAIN!!

My brother and I went outside right after New Year to see if "they" were there, and sure enough, the idiot had done it once again, just like clockwork on every holiday! We observed three red lights that looked like burning road flares floating a few thousand feet up in the dark sky, and we even watched as one burned out. They appeared to be hanging and dangling in the light wind from a triangular frame of some kind.

I've been told that the person claiming to have continually perpetrated this hoax had been interviewed on a San Diego TV news show in shadow to conceal their identity awhile back and had agreed not to do it again, but apparently they lied, or it's someone else doing it now. Maybe it DOES fall under the category of "UFO", but it's definitely terrestrial, and it's also a dangerous HOAX!
