I've followed Mr Ford's blog for a couple of years now. Some of it is way way OTT in my studiedly provisional opinion and he does provide a pretty clear warning about precisely that possibility in his 'about' piece.
That said he comes up with some curious and possibly 'fruitful for further research' relationships, allegations and theories about all manner of contemporary events. His stuff about the Mike Todd (Greater Manchester CC) 'suicide' being a case in point.
He also often sends his stuff to John Young at Cryptome who sometimes has a bit of a banter with him over its credibility.
There's an interesting example of his very credible stuff on MI5-6 and their entrapment of one John Symonds in the matter of Romano Prodi and the manipulation of the Mitrokhin Archive here
Incidentally, both he and John Symonds believe that MI6 was behind the Olaf Palme assassination. As I recall he has set out evidence which I found credible when reading it some time ago. Must see if I can dig it out for the Olaf Palme thread.
