Re: [CTRL] Fiction is stranger than truth?
AH! Delta Green. Well, this is "fiction" writing in the tradition of Lovecraft with a modern edge. Delta Green is a covert and illegal operation within the government of the US who views its duty as rooting out the minions of the Old Ones and others of the Cthulhu Myth Cycle and stopping their attempts at causing madness and destruction. I highly recommend the books and the web-site. It is all very interesting stuff, and merely fiction. . .but I have often wondered at how the actual events and high strangness of history and existence (at least at times) correlates so well with much of what Lovecraft started with his so-called myth cycle, as well as by the continued propagation of it by countless writers over the years.

Re: [CTRL] Fiction is stranger than truth?
You do realise that this is a game, material for the Call of Cthulhu RPG? Delta Green is a 1990's setting with a heavy government consiracy angle (a la X files).
