        If it becomes a tested, documented theory that the transfer of
energy from food to an organism is dependent upon the exchange of
Lifeforce energy in the Astral Universe, I'll give you an American
dollar.  If it also becomes a documented, tested theory that energy
exchange can occure on a purely Astral level, you get five American
dollars, and if it turns out that Vampires rule the earth, I'll give you
ten American dollars.
        Until then, let's agree that the scientific method, and the
persuit of knowledge through empirical and rational means is superior to
taking -anything- Lucas Martel, Ron Hubbard, or any other Gnostic
know-nothing has to say about the way the human body works.
