Dear Sirs,

I made a correction in the article about Howard Storm. It said that Howard Storm was a professor in the Art Department at University of Kentucky. That is incorrect. He held that position at Northern Kentucky University. I read his book, attended Northern Kentucky University, was graduated from University of Kentucky and grew up in northern Kentucky.

I do not have an IP address and don't want one, but my correction is factually correct.


[edit] Article Expansion

I believe that this article is a good start, but does not convey enough of the depth of what Howard Storm is trying to express about what he says happened to him (an NDE). I firmly believe in maintaining a neutral point of view on the discussion of what he says happened to him, and believe that Wikipedia would be enriched if more of his claimed experience was detailed. As it stands today (May 28, 08), there is very little in this article about what he is trying to express happened to him, and that information would be useful for Wikipedia users to have, in order to understand more of what he (as a public figure) says & believes. I have attended a number of NDE-related events and read several NDE-related research books (including Howard Storm's book and other stuff he has made) and believe that the "essence" of what the "near-death experiencer" felt and is trying to express is just as important as the "bare bones" data about what they say they saw or where they say they visited. The near-death experience is always a subjective and highly personalized experience, and often the images are said (by the experiencer) to be less important in comparison to the "feeling" and the "meaning" behind the images and places they visited. I encourage enrichment of this article. EnochHenderson (talk) 04:26, 29 May 2008 (UTC)
