The Swamp Gas Report, #2:

Courtesy of recent Drudge Report postings, here's two more links to recent sightings of cockamamie poppycock. If only people would listen to CSICOP -- (The Committee for the Scientific Investigation of Claims of the Paranormal), recently rechristened CSI (Committee for Skeptical Inquiry), publishers of The Skeptical Inquirer -- they'd realize that they're not really seeing what they think they're seeing. After all, CSI has all the answers. It's Official Reality.

I'm sure there's a prosaic explanation, since it behooves us to be "rational" and explain away whatever doesn't fit inside our tiny little paradigm. Especially if there's tenure at stake and scientific peer pressure at play.

Or, if you're tired of my sarcasm and want to cut through the officially fabricated b.s., spend some time with Dr. Lynn D. Kitei, M.D., author of The Phoenix Lights. It's heartening to realize that some people in this world know the true definitions of "critical thinking" and "rationality."
