==================================
Dear Reader:
I want to draw your attention to a new show to premiere soon on the Discovery Science Channel. The show is called "Critical Eye" and it was produced in cooperation with CSICOP and the Skeptical Inquirer magazine. Many of you have already seen the 3-4 minutes shorts currently being run on Discovery Science, which are titled "Skeptical Inquirer." The new show is modeled upon these shorts, but will be an hour long and examine several topics within each episode.
CSICOP did not have final script approval, but we did contribute a great deal of time to them, as well as most of the skeptical guests presented. We have high hopes for the final product, which is still being worked upon. It think it pretty safe to say that the skeptical point of view will be very well represented. William B. Davis (The X-Files-smoking man), will be the series host. He is a longtime reader and supporter of the Skeptical Inquirer and had been instrumental in keeping the show true to its mission.
I hope you can mark the airdates on your schedule, and then let us know your thoughts.
