Regan Lee has a very nice article on Binnall of America about all of the dedicated UFO researchers who give so much of their time and effort for free. She also lists Book of THoTH as one of those sites where people can share their experiences and discuss such topics everyday in the forums. Thanks for that Regan!

I started thinking about it, and it's true. I don't know as much about most of those sites as I do BoT, obviously. I've been doing what I can on BoT for years now, and the group of people who spend their time to help out and give a free information resource, as well as a place for people to discuss just about anything in the world, really is special. I know the owner and webmaster of BoT, Michael Bourne, quite well by this point, and I know that doing what he does is certainly not free. However, until a few days ago during our recent server issues, no one's ever even persuaded him to solicit donations, much less put up advertisements or make a subscriber service.

That kind of dedication, by each of the sites which she lists, and so many others, certainly shows how important it is to people, and is really quite unique and special. So, following Regan's lead, I have to say THANKS to all the people who spend so much time, effort, and even money giving everyone free information resources. When you sit down and think about the enormity of the web and the information contained therein, it really is an interesting time to be alive if you always want to learn more, like myself.

Hi Dustin,
Wow, thanks for the mention!
Book of Thoth is great; very professional looking too. Good looks, good info!

It amazes me, when I stop to think about it, all the good free blogs, forums, sites and resources out there. We all hear so much about the negative, poorly done, or just plain weird "out there" sites all the time. Which,as we all know, certainly is true. But there's more to this than just those kinds.
