Science & Vie

[1] In 1982, a spinoff computer magazine, Science et Vie micro [fr] (SVM) was launched.

Another important distinctive feature of Science & Vie was its willingness to tackle the issue of pseudoscience.

With the help of magician Gérard Majax, it has exposed the tricks used by Uri Geller to bend spoons and make small objects fly.

[4] The magazine also uncovered the fabrication of the autopsy of an alien body supposedly discovered in Roswell, New Mexico.

In general, articles on paranormal topics were marked as Blurgs, an acronym for Balivernes lamentables à l'usage réservé des gogos ("deplorable nonsense reserved for use by the gullible").
