His life, and his work, formed the basis for Jon Ronson's book The Men Who Stare at Goats, the film of which is out this Friday.

Channon lives "on an eco-homestead" and promotes a crusade dubbed "Operation Noble Steward," calling for a united global military to handle ecological problems. So in the end, the entertaining farrago of make-believe and scrambled history in "The Men Who Stare At Goats" doesn't faze Channon. He compares his collision with Hollywood to "a 'meeting engagement.' That's when two armies bump into each other and chaos errupts. The ones that are quickest on their feet win. I've been quick in this case. So far it has been an amazingly successful engagement." Spoken like an honest-to-God, flesh-and-blood Jedi warrior.
