Welcome back, Wade! Glad to see you are making a strong recovery. Time among family and old friends will have its advantages, so enjoy that. We were just recently back that way for a wedding, down by Syracuse. Mighty pretty country.

SS Malay is a better match. I googled that first, but got sidetracked by a Wiki page that said it may refer to RMS Malay or something. Didn't sound promising because RMS Whatever didn't seem to survive the war. Maybe even WWI. Now I can't find that page. Don't care anymore either. Since SS Malay...

:D

Cool. Was Berlitz in contact with "Carlos", I wonder. I'm back from my image search, and of course Allen's handwriting is far different. Much more legible, too.

Heh. That hadn't registered with me yet. That is interesting. I figured the red was Allen's original comments, but was focused on deciphering the handwriting. It has been a long time, but I've seen images of some of the original notations and it seems the handwriting was similar. I could be way...

I'll take a stab. Seen from SS Medina ...-time- 1947 Discharged between 100-110 flying light from explosion later crew hair fell out ship exploded Probably more of Carl Allen's nonsense. Just a guess. The SS Medina has quite a history, serving as a transport ship in the North Atlantic...

Interesting article. I watched the TV special on Youtube or something years ago, but don't recall ever hearing about the conference. Heh, no surprise there, apparently. I won't spoil it for anyone, but I laughed when I read about Don Ecker's "prize". Yikes. I'd love to hear his take on the whole...

There seem to be varying degrees of success getting photos downloaded from the site. I got mine, but it wasn't many and I had to do them one at a time. I've read of people with hundreds or thousands of images on there being able to get through a bunch of hoops to download zip files or...

Whatever floats yer boat. You don't seem to be a jerk about it, so I don't care. Live long and prosper.

Well, okay. I thought it was pretty obvious. Fundamentalists, reactionaries and other dogmatic types who know that no "paranormal" experience can't be reduced to some chemical imbalance or some sort of incompetence, simply because what was described is impossible. You know, the "functioning...

I see the good Dr. Wu started that thread over at FT. He would be a welcome addition here. A true skeptic with a working brain, not some half baked materialist zealot.

What them other guys said. Many of us here have had our share of strange experiences; some are compelling. Most other places like this have been overrun by dingbats and troglodytes, but it's pretty sane here. There is a steady trickle of desperate attention seekers (it is, after all, the...

When that happens, it might devise some way to send out machines to hover over power lines and suck up electricity so some puny human can't just pull the plug. This could throw the power system far enough out of balance to trigger massive blackouts. It might also come up with a way to project...

What reasonably competent person, in possession of something like an alien mummy, would let the likes of Maussan anywhere near it? Anyone with an internet connection and ten minutes can learn all they need to know about his track record. I wouldn't trust the clown with my lunch money. I really...

Gotta be aliens. It's the only explanation that's any fun. Not to mention the only one that makes money for Clickbait Team.

Yikes.

Mike, just don't wear a red shirt when you go. Doesn't matter which century you visit, for a couple of reasons. You'd be seen as an officer in the Picard one, and that would no doubt be a lot of trouble, but time doesn't seem any too stable in either, with far more visits to one another than one...

I have a toll bridge for sale, if anyone is interested.

Thanks for posting this, SS. I've heard about this story before and hoped to one day read the book. I've been trying to send a message to my 1989 self, to buy several copies of the book and stash them here and there, but he's pretty thick headed about things like that. I've tried even harder to...

Space travel is utter bilge; rocks can't possibly fall from the sky, and on and on. It's always good, though, to have someone around who knows it all.
