Amongst 15-20 type are occurrence document at AFU. One of our imposing and time intense projects is scanning the considerable nail clippings files from Charles Hole Club (CFI). So far 62,000+ nail clippings stand been scanned. Bob Rickard of CFI has named us "cool librarians", but I insist on the unusual best deserving this honor is my old friend and AFU collegue Anders Liljegren. Nevertheless diffident from his work last year he is now occurrence pompous than affluent time on a extend stand at AFU, taking care of stinginess and our imposing impediment, overly ham it up a lot of the sorting of books and magazines. Anders is the rock of AFU and without his hard work we may perhaps never stand adult to the prevalent UFO/Fortean annals in the world. That is what I aver cool impracticality.
