The Jury

Given the recent announcement by the Steorn 'Jury':

And Steorn's subsequent statement:

I will write my thoughts on this in a few days. The knee-jerk reaction is to say that the jury was everything - the reason I gave any credence to Steorn's fantastical claims in the first place. That is what drew me in and allowed me to suspend disbelief. Since then, other events turned my position back to its normally sceptical state. Even so, there was always hope - there was always the jury.

I have voiced the knee-jerk reaction elsewhere - particularly inside the SPDC. I believe, however, it is all being said beyond this blog. I'll take a few days and come back again to try and put this in some kind of perspective from my point of view for anyone who cares.

The news is not surprising and yet I am still stunned. Strange.
