Sheaffer’s “Psychic Vibrations” column has appeared in the SKEPTICAL INQUIRER for forty years.
His new book, Bad UFOs, is available through his blog, BadUFOs.com. His website is www.debunker.com.
The Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) is the largest and best-known organization of its kind in the United States (and probably in the world). Founded in Illinois in 1969 by Walt Andrus and others, it was originally known as the Midwest UFO Network. MUFON is now riding high with its show Hangar 1 on the so-called History Channel, which even most serious UFO proponents reject due to its sensationalist approach and deceptive use of fabricated government documents (see this column, January/ February 2016).
