Probably the greatest, most objective and authoritative writer and researcher into the unexplained. His writings are enthralling and make for good reading. I've often thought they should make a bio pic of his life story.
I found the NY times article he refers to - it's about the Swamp Lights in New Jersey: 1960 - over 50 acres!! "While the exact connection between Jack’s DIY torch and modern Halloween pumpkins is somewhat hazy, one thing is certain: The flickering lights that led superstitious voyagers astray are not mere legends. So-called ignis fatuus, or “foolish fire,” is a real phenomenon: a ball of flame that hovers above a marsh’s dark, still water for a few minutes before dissipating into the night. Mad marsh science These real-life jack-o’-lanterns most likely occur when a blend of natural gas rises to the surface of a mire, says Jeff Boyd, a microbial biochemist at Rutgers University. Unlike oceans and lakes, bog water is stagnant and oxygen-deprived. This creates the perfect environment for anaerobic bacteria and archaea-microorganisms that live without oxygen-to thrive. And many of them belong to a group known as methanogens. What exactly is a methanogen? “They make a living by eating dead plant material,” Boyd says. “As they break it down, one of the byproducts can be methane gas-the same gas that people are fracking for. When it forms in anaerobic environments, it can get trapped underwater, only to be released by a physical disturbance.” As these methanogens produce the highly flammable gas, they fill up the bogs where they live. If you’ve spent some time in this type of environment, you may have seen signs of methane yourself: As you stroll through the water, dozens of small bubbles will rise to the surface."

The lights are still here john... still here

Fun fact everybody worried bout Area 51 they dk everything the air force took to Wv Ohio line somewhere 👀 they at wrong side of the map fr
How come I search for more of this guy on here, but I can barely find any videos on him or his books. Is he Unpopular among the internet?
Me too someone recommended his book cosmetic question but I can't seem to find in audio
That’s because he is one of the very few ufologists who can give you the right answers of what ufo’s are …
Several books can be found on audible they are edited by Andrew Colvin.

Conjunctivitis is "pink eye". I think he must've said the wrong word there
No, that was correct.
Conjunctivitis comes from whatever heat or light is coming off of these various phenomenon. Reference the Cash Landrum case to start.
