I read it back then, along with "Gods From Outer Space"; his other book. Even as a kid I can remember rolling my eyes while reading it. It gives absolutely no credit to human inventiveness.

That was back when most bookstores had a whole section dedicated to pseudo-science.

I must admit that's one I haven't seen, but they've got "The Celebrated Jumping Frog of Calaveras County" in the American Literature section.

Fuck yes! I can't wait. I've already started re-reading the last nine or so, I'll be ready when my library gets it in. Buy last year's paperback, check out the new hardback, rinse, repeat. Sadly, he says he might end the series at around 20 of them.
