THe Charles Fort Institute is asking for nominations to establish the Seven Fortean Wonders of the World. As regular BB readers know, Charles Fort was a pioneering researcher into anomalous phenomena. The term “Fortean” is now used to describe especially odd, mysterious, or curious event and artifacts, as well as the people who share Fort’s views. To get you thinking, Fortean Times magazine put together a gallery of likely candidtaes. Seen here, from left, Rennes-le-Chateau, Stonehenge, and the Easter Island statues. Nominations are open until the end of September and then voting will begin. The project was inspired by the naming of the “New 7 Wonders of the World” and a comment from BB cryptozoologist pal Loren Coleman last month.
