When I was a kid, I loved the show In Search of and I had liked Sitchin's early books.

I dropped everything related to these topics for a number of years. It was after Mirage Men was published and around the time a certain researcher got caught in falsifying his academic credentials and lying about his military service. I had gotten a little disgusted with the starry-eyed believers over the silent planes a little before that, I think I had been accused of being a disinfo agent or some such nonsense over that stupidity.
In the meantime I had discovered Julian Jaynes, Buddhism and Lovecraft. I felt they were a much better use of my time. This spring I had a weird time-slip episode that couldn't be explained by normal means, so I decided to come back for a bit.
