Hi Rick,

Thankfully, Nigel's dropped in because I wouldn't know where to start on this either.  I did learn something kind of neat the other day.  An article in Skeptic Magazine explains how this Berlitz guy, the same one who made a fortune with his language schools and tourist guide books, was the complete king of New Age bullshit.  Turns out he was singlehandedly responsible for not one, not two, but three New Age Fairytales:  the Bermuda Triangle, the Philadelphia Experiment and the Roswell UFO crash.  Just one guy caused all that mischief.  Funny, huh?
