What? Why don't all the lights have twirls? If the tripod moved, I guess everything would have moved in the same pattern, but no... Hmmm..

My assumption would be that the other lights just didn't have enough presence to leave trails. I would hazard this guess because it looks to me like this was a very fast motion, as it seems you may have caught the strobing of some of the lights. This may not be exactly what that is, but that's my guess.

way back in the old days there was a tv show called Automan. he was a guy that had a head and the rest of his body was umm....electricity? he could travel around through electrical conduits.
maybe you caught him using the lights to travel from point to point? ok, so i have no clue and it took me calling my sister to have her ask her bf what the name of the show was. i was bored and it was bugging me that i couldn't think of that tv show's name.

Those probably didn't show trails because aliens were flying past them just as your tripod moved.
I offer that explanation because I have no other.

Was there a knat buzzing around your lens - very odd - I would LOVE an explanation. Maybe send to pop photography and ask...very curious!

Was someone walking around your equipment with a flashlight or penlight? To me it only looks like two lights are circling, and that they are each reflected as well. If you walked up to your camera with a light on, to release your shutter, that could explain it somewhat. The reflections would be caused by your UV filter.
Just a thought, as I don't believe in UFO's. =)
