I don't suppose this relates much to anything we have been talking about and
it is unlikely that any of you care, but there is some turmoil going on here.
My next door neighbor has been suffering from dementia and lack of mobility for
some time now and he seems to have just taken a turn for the worse, a severe
turn for the worse. Hospice was contacted about him just a couple of days ago
and they did send someone out with a morphine shot today. But just now his wife
called his nurse and the nurse is on the way out here, but she said over the
phone that this is probably the end.

“Don't you believe in flying saucers, they ask me? Don't you believe in
telepathy? — in ancient astronauts? — in the Bermuda triangle? — in life after
death?
No, I reply. No, no, no, no, and again no.
One person recently, goaded into desperation by the litany of unrelieved
negation, burst out "Don't you believe in anything?"
Yes", I said. "I believe in evidence. I believe in observation, measurement,
and reasoning, confirmed by independent observers. I'll believe anything, no
matter how wild and ridiculous, if there is evidence for it. The wilder and
more ridiculous something is, however, the firmer and more solid the evidence
will have to be.”
