Not Churchward, silly! You must mean ChurchWOOD -- Col. James
Churchwood.
After all, HE'S the author of this memorable mouthful (gulp!):
``Our scientists today do not want facts. They hate them
because it upsets all the fairy tales they have been building
up for many, many years.
``What they want, and what they will readily accept, is some
ultra-cracked theory that in some way boosts up their
mythical teaching, and the more technology, impossible
to understand, the better it is, for here is the bluff for
the public with no possible comeback."
