Hello Bill & Michael,

I similarly agree on this.  As far as I can tell, Ed Dames is in the same
mold as Courtney Brown, and very likely a disinformation specialist, IMO.
One thing that quickly turned me off of Ed Dames was his insistence, on
Art Bell's show, that RV is a scientific topic.  It seemed to me like he
would spend more time talking about the scientific nature of his RV
research than on specific results that might be scientifically attested.
