    The "Bennington Triangle" (Vermont)

    I just downloaded this BTS episode and was about to post it, but I see it's already here. ETA: One thing about BTS is that they usually present more than one explanation for the phenomena that they look at. Sometimes the conventional conclusion is the best one.

    Places That Feel Hostile Or Wrong

    The closest that I can come to your experience is a house my mother and I owned in the state of Washington near Seattle. We kept hearing things fall in the kitchen when we were elsewhere in the house, things turned up missing, etc. One time while my brother, a deputy sheriff, was there we...

    Sightings By Sceptics?

    Didn't know there was a different meaning that was determined by the spelling. Be that as it may, I am a skeptic (or sceptic) when it comes to UFOs, and I have seen aerial phenomena that I can't explain, so I am open-minded. Being cognizant of the fact that there are many things that we don't...

    Lost Cities & Towns

    This youtube video brought to mind a conversation between EnolaGaia and yours truly, about an account of one George Kershon concerning a lost city in the remote Alaska interior. Could Kershon have stumbled across something after all? Now, I wonder.

    The Yowie

    Prehistoric Maritime Global Kingdom?

    This brings to mind a group called the Sea Peoples, about which almost nothing is known. Also, the Phoenicians were fantastic sailors, as well as traders. The city of Carthage was founded by them about 1000 BCE, and was a very major power in the Mediterranean until Rome finally destroyed...

    The Atlantis Thread

    As I see it, there are two fundamental questions here. One is 'did Atlantis exist in the first place?' and if the answer to that question is yes, then where was it? Those who tend to believe that it did exist (and I am among them) have an uphill battle to fight because there is little if any...

    Lost Dutch Colony???

    I might have mentioned the idea of a lost dutch colony in Australia before. It's an intriguing idea and one that I find quite plausible. The problem is that there is not very much to back it up. At the era in question, the Dutch were in their East Indies colony, so it is quite possible that...

    Worst Movie EVER?

    2001: A Space Odyssey. This film bored me to tears. I'm not being a troll like I was accused of on the old IMDb forums. The lawyer Vincent Bugliosi coined the phrase 'Toscaninni of Tedium' in the Manson trial amd I could almost swear that this film was what he had in mind.
