This is what makes cable UFO shows so boring - same stuff. It never goes anywhere. I discovered that as a teenager. Wow, was that a long time ago. This repetition has been going on for a long time. I was so disappointed an alien wasn't about to land on the White House lawn. 'Klaatu barada nikto.'

Loved your statistics generated regarding people referenced in the book. Demonstrates a great deal of work done to comb through the pages of a dense volume. Well played.

Acrobat helped as well. The publisher sent a PDF also. ;-)

I can't understand why Michael Shermer more or less endorses these books and I'm pretty sure he wasn't even through reading this one.? He had Graff on his Skeptic podcast. He had Avi Loeb on also and did the same thing.

He had Graff on because, like everyone else in the world, he was sent a review copy by Simon & Schuster and it makes business sense to interview someone who's about to be highly visible. He has Loeb on because he is the "token skeptic" on Loeb's board. I have not heard those shows so cannot comment on their content.

Oh, I see! Thanks Brian! You are my number 1 go-to Skeptic!
