This is the first of several issues celebrating the fiftieth anniversary of both Skeptical Inquirer magazine (formerly The Zetetic) and the Committee for Skeptical Inquiry (formerly CSICOP). In this issue, we’re thrilled to have reflective pieces from James Alcock, Eugenie Scott, Massimo Polidoro, Richard Saunders, and Banachek (see my column on page 4 for more about each of these contributors). There’s so much ground to cover that in each issue of SI this year, we will be celebrating our long and storied history in various ways. Many of those ways are already planned, but there’s still room for more. If there’s a particular story that you’d like to tell, please reach out!
