Yep. Anyone concerned about the quality of the second series can rest easy, it's still shit. He's always reminded me of Jim Bowen (probably only a name UK readers will recognise). Interestingly, they both have links to things beginning with "BULL...."

I forget the name of the show (some debunking type show on Discovery or the History Channel) but they had a recent episode looking at witness claims of similar objects (i.e. similar in size, shape, movement). They did a test with a bunch of balloons and if I'm honest it was very, very...

What do people consider the most up-to-date/intelligent/objective/rational (etc. etc. you get the point) book on Roswell?

John, If you get the chance check out Jerome Clark(e?)'s piece in the latest issue of Fortean Times. It's very much "on topic" for this subject.

Best wishes to you David, hope things improve.

John, I think those are great questions. I'm not sure I'd immediately assign the source of such tulpas to an outside agency (i.e. an advanced intelligence), I'm certainly open to the idea that these experiences may in some sense be self-generated. Which, I should also add, would be something of...

dhatz - I didn't realise that was your site! Stumbled across it just a few days ago (and already referenced it here in another thread). Nice work.

It's been many years since I last read one of Good's books but looking back I see a lot of parallels between his approach and output and that of Rich Dolan.

You put it a lot better than I did, Kevin, thank you! David - this is (I think) constructive criticism, at least that's the way it's intended.

Well, I can only speak for myself, but the underlying theme seems to me to smack of paranoia and manipulation. I don't think anyone needs a history lesson from me about where fear, uncertainty and manipulation of public perception has led us over the past few years. Obviously equating an ad for...

My guess, and I think it's been mentioned previously, is that there might be some sort of cultural - UK vs US at the very least - issue here (although I'm not sure where schticknz is from so perhaps I'm wrong). Although I could care less where people horde their nuts, I think this is an ad which...

Great post, dhatz. I really recommend anyone looking for more info on Rendlesham read Bruni's book and the earlier Skycrash from Randles et al.

"Belief in aliens can turn deadly" Yes, absolutely. On a related note, I recently stumbled across this site which has a nice diagram of UFO "types" on its homepage.

More usefully, and along the lines of both threads, there's the example of the National Institute for Discovery Science (NIDSci) I read their black triangle report some time ago, seems a shame it's now defunct.

Bloody hell, it's almost exactly the same question isn't it? Not sure how I missed it earlier :o Still, great minds and all that ::)

Fair enough, then. Thanks for the link!

Is that meant quite as dismissively as it sounds?

Imagine you'd won a huge amount of money (think lottery win, inheritance from a fabulously wealthy aunt, etc.) and after taking care of your immediate needs and desires decided that you were going to spend the rest of your money investigating "the UFO phenomenon" (admittedly you probably...

You're not alone. Sorry, that sounded a bit sinister, wasn't meant to be!

Have to agree with schticknz et al here, I can see this type of ad putting some people off (which would be a shame). Seemed kind of out of kilter with the tone of the show...
