Sceptical aphorisms

A number of years ago, a self-proclaimed Crytozoologist showed me some fuzzy pictures of hundreds of "Nessie's eggs" that some of his crew took at the bottom of the Ness. Now, it turns out that they were golf balls that vacationers hit out into the lake. That's kind of a bummer. (Al Seckel)
