"We forteans could be characterised as benign sceptics, taking nothing on trust but tolerating the surreal fringes of explanation until they are supplanted by more convincing evidence. We use 'sceptic' in this sense and distinguish it from the word skeptic (with a 'k') which can usefully be employed to cover the militancy (exemplified by CSICOP) which starts from the premise that most unexplained phenomena area priori impossible. Of course, current dictionaries don't make this distinction; perhaps we need a new word." ~ Fortean Times 1/02
Put on your aluminum hats and debunk the debunkers who subscribe to the gods of scientism! Make fun of CSICOP, sigh over the rabid rantings of religious fundamentalists, rant against material rationalists - even debunk yourself!

Re: Crop Circles---Has Anyone Done the Math? Ausiepath, It would seem a simple experiment to choose the biggest and most complex crop circle that has yet appeared and have a group of people, perhaps those Posted - Tue Dec 18, 2007 7:31 pm	James Dawson jamesndawson Online Now Send Email
Re: Crop Circles---Has Anyone Done the Math? Actually what it is is convenient. Saying "the Army" secured a given area puts a patina of authenticity to a claim that can be plausible any way the claim Posted - Tue Dec 18, 2007 1:29 pm	John Beatty jdbeatty.geo Offline Send Email
