An article in this Schenectady, NY, newspaper prompted this op-ed piece by UFO skeptic Peter Huston. Key quote: "After 60 years plus..., ufologists still have not assembled enough evidence...to obtain a decent government grant, prepare a satisfying exhibit in a reputable museum or provide a single, solid chapter in a legitimate school science textbook." Meanwhile, the NZ Skeptics Society is getting ready to kick off its annual conference, bringing forth the New Zealand group's prediction UFOs to Hit Hamilton! Elsewhere, after reporting a few days ago about a summer camp in Alabama teaching children skepticism, we find much the same thing in a camp near Buffalo, NY, where the national Director of the Council for Secular Humanism became part of the act when Camp Inquiry Encourages Children's Skeptical Side. Those distant thumps you're hearing may be the sudden closings of little minds.
