I have just heard that John Keel is seriously ill. Theo Paijmans writes:"...Word comes that John Keel, iconic Grand Old Man of Forteana, has been admitted to a NYC hospital, suffering from anemia, adema, and various other complications of diabetes.Keel,at 79, is said to be very frail and weak and his prognosis is uncertain..."
He is one of the greats, and one prays that he will recover. Remember him in your thoughtsand prayers.
It's a shame. The fellow deserves to be a millionaire as a result of all the material (credited and uncredited) directly influenced by his researches. Keel's eyesight was also notoriously poor, which necessitated painful surgery in 2001, and it occurred to me that such pains may be the payback for continuously chasing UFO phenomena about the place in the 1960s. Also, I hear another honorable member of the Old Guard, John Michell, isn't too chipper these days. . .
ReplyDeleteWe live in an increasingly trivial, nasty world — this is what the elites want. Chaos and stupidity is NOT a problem for them — it's their raison d'etre for social control. At least the CFZ is doing its bit to arrest this decline by keeping the spirit of free, unbounded enquiry alive for future generations as this Old Guard passes on.
