The door swings both ways. Dont it hit you where the good Lord split you.

Sorry that you were not able to understand, nor were you able to refute any
of what I stated.

Further, I am very sorry for you that you find it neccesary to resort to ad
hominems, and patheticall, hopelessly pathological medicines such as
"psychology" of all things. My God Bob - do you really believe all that crap
? Do you know that they study things like "remote viewing" and "crystal
vibration therapies" ??

Is this the level of your great depth of scientific comprehension ?

Look here - I dont give one tinkers damn about your psychological assements.
It is as superfluous and useless to me as has been your contribution to this
thread, and I would invite you to get lost if you dont like it.
