Rating:  - Science!What a concept!!
Dispelling ghosts and ghost hunters, demons and exorcists, miracles and evangelicals, bigfoot and related beasties and their hunters, psychics, mediums, and lots more of things that go bump on network TV and the mainstream press, SI is a breath of fresh air for those tired of the unending, uncritical coverage of the "paranormal."

Skeptical Inquirer has got to be, hands down, my absolute favorite periodical (Free Inquiry comes in a close second).Produced by the Committee for the Scientific Investigation of Claims of the Paranormal (CSICOP), the magazine aims to separate "fact from myth in the flood of occultism and pseudoscience on the scene today."Through scientific inquiry, scholarly research, and in-depth analysis, it succeeds (and with flair!).
A typical issue reads like a season of the X-Files (well, had Scully ... Read More
