Yeah, Clark's recent slamming of Keel will have made up a lot of minds that he (Keel) is not a reliable source anymore, and is more a fantastist than an investigator. I've only read The Mothman Prophecies, which was entertaining but I found it difficult to take wholly seriously, it was that wacky.

Strangely enough I have read "The Mothman Prophecies" several times. It may not be the best literature but the atmosphere is wonderful. It is perfect escapist literature. I think I'll re-read it again (I have it as an audio-book).

(Note: I know "real literature" and have even read Gravity's Rainbow but Keel's book has a very deep charm. I hope I'm not the only one and if anyone can explain this ...)
