An international crop circle conference cancelled entirely, rather than give in to researchers Glickman and King, who demanded from the promoters that they dis-invite presenter Colin Andrews.
I wrote about Colin's comments and the actions of Glickman and King, who seem to think it more important to control access to information than it is to research. It also says much about what they think of witnessess and the rest of us which is, not much, as they don't believe we are capable of thinking for ourselves.

CropCircles seem demonstrably confounding... Does anyone, in a nut-shell, know what the problem is with Glickman re: Andrews? Both have always impressed me so much.
Alfred, I don't know the whys, but I suspect it's because of a few things: pettiness being the main one. That's my personal take, not based on any reality. Probably it's also due to what Andrews has said about crop circles being mostly "fake" but that is, as I wrote on Orange Orb, a famously misunderstood and very much taken out of context remark. I can understand a general audience misinterpretating that statement -- as I did, once -- but not those who are collegues of Andrews, like Glickman. He knows better. He has to. And yet, he seems more concerned with trying to control information than the free exploration of ideas.
