Charles Hoy Fort
 
Charles Fort (1874-1932) was an American journalist and writer who collected news articles of anything bizarre or unusual that challenged the scientific paradigms of his day. He was opposed to the practice of throwing out, or discarding data which did not conform to conventional scientific knowledge. He called such data "damned". Fort wrote several books and put forth his theories and ideas, some of which were as strange as the data he collected. From his name, the word Fortean was derived, which encompasses the philosophy that all data must be examined, and not thrown aside merely because it does not conform to accepted paradigms.
