Michael, it's an idea whose time has come. That sound you hear is opportunity knocking. :D

Seriously, I hope you consider it. I promise to buy the book. Soft cover, of course.

It is just such a "negative" topic. I have actually debated this exact book over the years, but people generally don't want to buy books filled with negative stuff! It would need to be an exposure of 'bad' examples, with reference to 'good' examples. Some balance. Thinking out loud.

When you expose BS -- name calling starts. That's human nature. Look at you. You have never read my books or seen my film, but like the sheep in my film you heard "something" on ET and ran with it. Now you are so far into believing whatever you want to believe that the truth is no longer digestible for you. Trust me, I get that, but my goal is not to make crazies see the light. That said, I could be a nice guy and let you up, but I prefer to use you as an example.

You write your own books?? :eek:

The topic may be negative, but the contribution would be positive. There's a lot of deceitful conduct going on out there. Depending on how thorough, even-handed and far-reaching the content, such a book may well become talk show circuit material. A book principally addressing this subject matter would be the first of its kind to my knowledge.

Another big issue: the research. Maybe it becomes a collaborative effort at ET for many different people to contribute research/documents? As evidenced by the end notes of my (2) books...research is time consuming!

Yes, but that's why you best-selling authors get the big bucks. :)

One avenue of research might be to advertise, either on your web sites and/or elsewhere, that you are looking for people who got duped. You can go from there. Of course, the cat would be entirely out of the bag at that point, so you'd have decide whether that's good strategy. Just thinking out loud.
