You are to be commended for your honesty John. I personally

I understand believe me. However and unfortunately, the above
DOES necessarily involve humans. It involves people who have
undergone a set of serious traumatic shocks to their psyche.
These folks seem to have an extremely difficult time
disassociating themselves from the tremendous emotional
attachment to their experience.

That the reported circumstances of these phenomena is fantastic
and all but unbelievable is true, but due to the overwhelming
numbers it is clear that something exceedingly strange is and
has been occurring.

> That's the only way we'll know that we got it right.

Perhaps, but in any event it IS TIME NOW that an honest and
totally objective study be made of what is occurring. Our
collective future just may depend upon it.

Honesty is an all too rare commodity during these times. ;-)

It IS for sale!  <grin>

Just think of what a conversation piece it would make hanging in
your entryway!
