BUFO WEBSITE COMING
You've been asking for it: a Bufo's WEIRD WORLD website should be up (in some
form) within about a week. I'm not going to have a lot of room there, but I
do expect to be able to have: the current Media Alert; the current Bufo's
WEIRD WORLD; books you can buy on these topics; what should be a nice links
page; and whatever else I can squeeze in, including possibly archives and a
few suprises. I expect to continue these e-mailing lists the same way. I'll
let you know when it is up, although like Disneyland, it will never be
finished :)
MICHAEL LINDEMANN'S MEDIA WATCH SUSPENDED
A sad note for now: Michael Lindemann's Media Watch is being suspended (all
other functions continue for CNI NEWS, to my knowledge). It may be back, but
all the Editors have done a great job (although modesty doesn't permit me to
apply that to my brief tenure...although you can ;) ). That won't mean that
I'll start covering the weekly fictional stuff: there's just not enough time.
Still, I'll do what I can.
CLINTON UPSET BY CONTACT
One interesting fictional note: CONTACT opens this week, and you'd better
hurry to see it in its original form! President Clinton is in
it...involuntarily. It's =possible= the White House will ask the movie
makers to change that, but we'll see.
UFO MUSEUM DIRECTOR NEEDS TEMP STAFF VOLUNTEERS
Erik Beckjord asked me to put out the call for people who can help staff his
UFO/bigfoot/Loch Ness Monster/crop circle museum in San Francisco while he is
out of town in the near future. You can e-mail him at logger@california.com
if you are interested.
On to the listings!
MAGAZINES, NEWSLETTERS, PERIODICALS, ETC.
THE ANOMALIST #5, SUMMER 1997. Editors Patrick Huyghe and Dennis Stacy can
always be counted on for an interesting and eclectic collection in this twice
yearly trade-paperback publication. Articles this time include: TOO MANY
ANOMALIES, NOT ENOUGH TIME by T. Peter Park; DEEP SECRETS: IS THE NAVY
TELLING IDAHO RESIDENTS A WHOPPER OF A FISH STORY? by Patrick Huyghe, which

REPORT by Eris Andrys, looking at Bob Dean's ASSESSMENT; THE WASH INCIDENT by
