Skeptic

I am not normally what one would term a skeptic. I have a sense for when things are perhaps not true, but I am not out to poke holes in people's ideas, nor am I all on board with the ways that people use science to try to prove things wrong. However, this guy comes across as very sensible, and not at all like the kind of people who simply spew ichor at others for believing differently. The article also highlights some compelling evidence the investigator, Joe Nickell, presents about certain paranormal ideas. I would go on different tangets from there, but it's an interesting read.
