I thought that we had a thread already on the way Fortean topics come into vogue for a while and then sink.
I can't find one.
It is not always easy to identify a lack of something. Google does not help - its new format seems to avoid any statistics on the results page.
The topic I had in mind was Rennes-le-Château. We are so long past the Dan Brown peak that all I could find of recent origin were offers of accommodation in the town - at very modest rates.
No new discoveries, no excavations, no ongoing "research." Have they stopped drawing geometric figures on old paintings and claiming they are maps to buried treasures? Have publishers withdrawn from an overcrowded and disreputable market? Or has the show just moved on?
Perhaps it is due an unholy revival. Meanwhile, can we spot other topics that seem to be slumbering with no recent activity reported.
Odds seem to be against ectoplasm erupting again . . . :atom:
