He describes himself as an "amateur polymath" ie he has a wide interest in history, anthropology, science, and in particular, scientific anomalies.Blog: http://malcolmsanomalies.blogspot.com/We focus on the book and the blog in our interview - Malcolm posted about his 2 UFO sightings on the blog - when he opened the site in 2011.  *Borneo, 1981. It was Sunday 19 July, and I was travelling up the broad Mahakam River in Kalimantan, or Indonesian Borneo in a 17 metre houseboat.*Brisbane, Australia, 1968. It was Saturday evening, 7th December.
