Our friend Drex at CKNW came across an article in the Georgia Straight written by the Straight’s Adrian Mack, referencing an article which appeared in the UK’s Telegraph talking about British police and intelligence agencies monitoring ‘fans’ of shows like Star Trek and The X-Files in the run-up to the Millennium “amid fears that British fans would go mad and kill themselves, turn against society or start a weird cult.”

Adrian Mack writes for the Georgia Straight on a number of topics, including music, film, and fascist death cults. He’s also frequently spotted around town playing a 1962 Gretsch round badge three-piece drum kit with a champagne sparkle finish. Adrian is unapologetic about his interest of UFOs, he likes to tease Skeptical Inquirer readers, and he’s a pioneer in the field of naming one of your kids after the drummer in the Clash.
