LETTER OF THE MONTH
Unsolved mysteries
I love a good conspiracy theory, and enjoyed the way Rob Attar explored the reasons they are so prevalent (March). I think it’s human nature to want closure – and if we can’t have that, we would rather be part of the secret societies that cause the greatest mysteries of our times. After all, it’s uncomfortable not knowing: maybe part of our brains sparks an alarm that whirs ‘Danger, strange event! Get to the bottom of it, before they get you!’
