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.

Regan at The OrangeOrb Blog has added another post into the recent swarm of posts on skepticism.

This one's from UFO researcher Gordon Kaswell.

Regan over at the Orange Orb blog has expanded on her thoughts about "skeptics" and that "other" class of skeptics that takes it a step beyond. She really does a good job explaining some of the things that I was attempting to explain.

It's funny how many people are talking about such topics these days with myself, Regan, Greg Bishop and Nick Redfern all weighing in recently. Maybe we can all get together and figure out what terms we should really be using since everyone seems a little perturbed about it these days.

One piece of news today that I didn't get to mention this week. The Orange Orb blog was eaten by the beta blogger switch-over, and for the time being is now located at:

Wishing you all the best over there!
