Jim Marrs, R.I.P. (1943-2017)

I regret to report the sad news that investigative journalist Jim Marrs, bestselling author of CROSSFIRE:  THE PLOT THAT KILLED KENNEDY, PSI-SPIES:  THE TRUE STORY OF AMERICA'S PSYCHIC WARFARE PROGRAM, and so many other excellent cryptoscatological books, has passed away at the age of 73.  Jim's work was certainly an influence on my own research, and in 2012 he was kind enough to call me on the phone unbidden and chat for several hours about how much he enjoyed my first book, CRYPTOSCATOLOGY:  CONSPIRACY THEORY AS ART FORM.  He even gave me an enthusiastic blurb for the book that I will always cherish.  He was a conscientious researcher and a very congenial Southern gentlemen.  If you've never read one of his many books, I suggest beginning with his first, CROSSFIRE, now available in a revised and updated edition.  

Rest In Peace, Jim Marrs....
