MOH Forum: Could a Little Boy Be Proof of Reincarnation?

Could a Little Boy Be Proof of Reincarnation?
Posted By: X in McKinney, TX Jul 01, 2005	I watched this on Prime Time Live last night and it was pretty facinating. This little boy has his parents, and the realatives and friends of a dead WWII pilot convinced the boy is a reincarnated version of that fighter pilot. http://abcnews.go.com/Primetime/Technology/story?id=894217&page=1 Category: Birth-Babies, Death; Replies: 91

Samba	Posted: Fri Jul 01, 2005 \| 12:11 PM I saw this a while back. It's fun to believe, but I think that the parents are making it up. I know the article says "There's no way we could have known that" but it seems suspect to me.
Snowy in aeternum Member	Posted: Fri Jul 01, 2005 \| 05:38 PM All I can say is YEAH. RIGHT. The parents are just trying to get attention.
Cranky Media Guy	Posted: Fri Jul 01, 2005 \| 05:49 PM Even sadder than the fact that those people are convinced the boy is "reincarnated" is the fact that this crap was on a "news" show.
Alex's Girl	Posted: Sun Jul 03, 2005 \| 07:19 PM Samba has a point. It IS fun to believe, but I think that the kid's parents fed him the info and then had him tell other people. Especially since in my religon, as far as i have come to interpret it, we think that people have to much to do in heaven and that we get brought back up for a purpose... wheather it be because you have a purpose up in heaven or because the purpose on Earth is already fulfilled. It's bull crap in my opinion.
Rita	Posted: Mon Jul 04, 2005 \| 06:12 AM I think it's lousy that the parents are encouraging this. That little boy is going to grow up with problems. Can you imagine what it would be like to have your parents constantly telling you you're someone else? That would give anyone a complex.
jamieblonde	Posted: Mon Jul 04, 2005 \| 07:54 AM Geez, you peeps are so lost. NOTHING would overcome your mindset. You've been heavily conditioned all you're lives to not believe in the concept of reincarnation. You're all so freakin' brainwashed that you've become little programmed skeptic-bots. You remind me of Liberal Democrats, whose heads are so far up their butts that they think that Prez Bush is a bigger danger than the crazed, primitive Islamic lunatic terrorists. But I do love you , yes, even you, Rita......you lovely meter maid! Have a nice day :o) jamie [the hottie] blonde
Charybdis in Hell Member	Posted: Mon Jul 04, 2005 \| 10:45 AM Hey jamieblonde, I've got a bridge to sell ya. It's going dirt cheap. 😊

Jamie, it's up to the person who proposes a theory to prove that it's true. It's not our job to DISPROVE it. Your "logic" makes no sense; since we can't absolutely prove that this boy is the "reincarnation" of someone, that somehow proves that he is? Sorry, that's irrational. "You remind me of Liberal Democrats, whose heads are so far up their butts that they think that Prez Bush is a bigger danger than the crazed, primitive Islamic lunatic terrorists." Again, your "logic" makes no sense. Is your point supposed to be that if Bush is less of a danger to the world, then he is NO danger at all? Here's a radical notion for you to wrap your brain around: Both Bush AND "crazed, primitive Islamic lunatic terrorists" are a danger to the rest of us. Yes, two things--even two things on the opposite side of a dispute--CAN be bad simultaneously. To paraphrase Yakov Smirnoff, "What a concept!" Welcome to the World of Shades of Gray.
Cranky Media Guy	Posted: Tue Jul 05, 2005 \| 03:36 AM jamieblonde said: "My point was not to promote reincarnation. You didn't "get it." Here's what you said: "You've been heavily conditioned all you're lives to not believe in the concept of reincarnation. You're all so freakin' brainwashed that you've become little programmed skeptic-bots." Sure reads like you're "promoting reincarnation" to me. Yes, we certainly ARE skeptical of things for which there is no proof. Everyone should be skeptical of things like that. "And the other thing you had trouble grasping is that the liberal left in the US is so blinded by their hate of George Bush that they are part of the security problem." I have no "trouble grasping" your premise; I just don't agree with it. In my opinion, the left "hates" George Bush because of the things he has done. His actions came first, the "hatred" came afterwards. Kind of like how the Right hates Bill and Hillary Clinton. Can YOU wrap your brain around THAT?
Samba	Posted: Tue Jul 05, 2005 \| 06:30 AM Oh JamieBlonde, thank you for showing me the error of my ways!! I was wrong to be critical of this article. I should just take the parents word for it! I can't believe I was so closed minded!! (Yes, that was SARCASM) I believe reincarnation could be a possibility. What I don't believe is this article or the parents of this kid. There are just too many variables explaining it away.
Mort in Just left of centre Member	Posted: Tue Jul 05, 2005 \| 07:04 AM Just call me sceptic then, cause sorry guys but we have no soul to float off and be re-born when we die, we are but orgainc matter, which i suppose could technically be passed on to form another object in thousands of years (we die, we rot, some trace compounds from our bodies get absorbed by a plant, plant gets eaten by dog, we become dog?), but we won't know about it.
X in McKinney, TX Member	Posted: Tue Jul 05, 2005 \| 08:06 AM That doesn't happen anymore due to caskets. I, myself do not want to be a dog, so I will request to be cremated.
jamieblonde	Posted: Tue Jul 05, 2005 \| 08:50 AM If you knew anything, Sir Stephen, your Highness, about reincarnation, [which is misunderstood by the majority of people in the world due to the Easily-Led Syndrome......are you listening, cranky?,] you would know that people do not return as dogs or any other animal. But in your case, Sir, you might return as a Clinton Democrat right out of the box! You need to remove all the stuff that gives you amnesia.....you guys should try meditation. It'll take a while, but eventually you'll remember your true state of being after removing thousands of years of chaotic "thinking." Peel that onion that's covering your bio-computer. Next, you're probably going to tell me that UFOs are just swamp gas and that there really isn't an alien abduction conspiracy....no, not the Mexicans :o) Ah, what food you morsels be!!!
Myst Member	Posted: Tue Jul 05, 2005 \| 03:01 PM You remind me of Liberal Democrats, whose heads are so far up their butts that they think that Prez Bush is a bigger danger than the crazed, primitive Islamic lunatic terrorists.-jamieblonde Hey now! I am a liberal who happens to believe in reincarnation. 😛
X in McKinney, TX Member	Posted: Tue Jul 05, 2005 \| 03:13 PM Jamieblond, what the hell are you rambling about???? Obviously your superior intelect can not drop to a level we like to call humor....You must be one of those Scientologist I am guessing.....Go do some auditing or something. Go spend a few thousand dollars on some tapes and books or what ever.
Charybdis in Hell Member	Posted: Tue Jul 05, 2005 \| 04:37 PM Ah Myst, I can't marry you now. :down: :cheese:

Let's see...you believe in something the existance of which NO evidence exists and you have the nerve to call OTHER people "Easily-Led"? Of course we rational people are skeptical of reincarnation. We SHOULD be; so should you. Unless and until you can provide some EVIDENCE for the existance of reincarnation, do not expect anyone here to take you seriously.
Cranky Media Guy	Posted: Tue Jul 05, 2005 \| 06:23 PM I should have said "...you believe in something the PROOF of which NO evidence exists..."
Snowy in aeternum Member	Posted: Tue Jul 05, 2005 \| 07:08 PM Oh my, THIS discussion is going down the drain. It's starting to sound like the Prussian Blue one. :roll:
Citizen Premier in spite of public outcry Member	Posted: Tue Jul 05, 2005 \| 08:31 PM Hmm, as I remember from when I learned about Hinduism, we as human beings spent thousands of lives as rocks, then insects, then cows, then monkeys, or some such thing. I think that be living a particularly depraved or stupid life as a human, one might be demoted to a monkey or dog or some such thing. But I admit my Hinduism is a little rusty.
jamieblonde	Posted: Wed Jul 06, 2005 \| 08:17 AM You're not listening, cranky. I never said that I believed in reincarnation. If you would try to clear out all your preconceived notions about what you think reality is, including our [mis]communication, you would know that I've merely been trying to suggest that maybe you should get "yourself" out of the way so that you'll be more receptive to the posibility of new ideas. You and those like you take great delight in debunking everything that doesn't fit into your narrow view of the universe. Your childish thoughts about reincarnation are simply ignorant. If you had studied anything except the usual mainstream crap that passes for knowledge, you would know that there are many theories about reincarnation that don't involve "you," per say, being reincarnated. If there is any form of reincarnation, even if it's only impulses, my bet is that you headed the Inquisition that condemned Galileo for his outrageous claim that the earth rotates the sun. You were probably shocked when you heard that the earth wasn't flat, too. It must have been difficult for you to accept. As Billary Clinton once said, "Ah feel yo pain!" How's if feel to think that you're "in control," by the way? A major part of your life is spent sleeping. Who's in control then? Wrap your mind around THAT one, Pope Cranky! Mmmmmm........I feel soooo much better now :o)
X in McKinney, TX Member	Posted: Wed Jul 06, 2005 \| 08:30 AM I wouldn't argue Cranky; this one lives in her own world.
X in McKinney, TX Member	Posted: Wed Jul 06, 2005 \| 08:43 AM You could even see it from her point of view and she will tell you that you are still wrong.
jamieblonde	Posted: Wed Jul 06, 2005 \| 08:56 AM Omg.......Sir Stephen, Sir! Thou hast been serving in the Crusades too long. Me thinks thou hast shell-shock. I've got one word to say about Scientology: Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!!! Well, actually, I've got a few more words...lol. L.Ron Hubbard was a hustler who had a great imagination. He sold a ton of sci-fi books and decided he could make more money in the religion business. He had an epiphany and dreamed up this scam called Scientology. Now we have these shills, like Tom Cruise and John Travolta, who continue to propagate the lies. And because there's so many gullible people who worship celebrities, many more are drawn into the sinister, corrupt and dangerous scam. Hollywood is the best PR that Scamentology has ever had. Me a Scientologist? Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!!!!! And no, I'm not a Moonie, either. Reverend Moon is another hustler who should be in jail instead of his mansion.
Charybdis in Hell Member	Posted: Wed Jul 06, 2005 \| 09:07 AM I'm not even sure what JB is saying, so arguing with her is a tad difficult. I'll try though. We don't particularly take delight in debunking other people's beliefs. We just point out that logically, your 'arguments' make no sense. You are not making any points, just making bizarre insults. Let's try this - Do you believe in reincarnation? If so, why? If so, do you have direct evidence to support your belief and will you provide it? If you don't believe in reincarnation then what is your point? It seems to have been lost. Please remember that 'a friend of a friend' is not evidence. Neither is 'personal experience' as we don't know you and have no reason to believe that anything you personally experienced really happened the way you state. Sorry, that's just a fact of life. One last tip, and I expect to be insulted for this, but please try to keep the ranting to a minimum. Nobody mentioned half the stuff you keep ranting against. Can you stick to the topic at hand please?
Just droppin by	Posted: Wed Jul 06, 2005 \| 09:09 AM Jamie, you really are blonde. Why are you picking a fight about something so inane on an internet message board? No one gives a crap.
X in McKinney, TX Member	Posted: Wed Jul 06, 2005 \| 09:12 AM Ohhhh Chary.....Well JB, you gone and done it...Chary doesn't make a habit of doing that. He only pop's up if someone is being a rambling fool. And apparently, you grabed his attention.
jamieblonde	Posted: Wed Jul 06, 2005 \| 02:00 PM Ouuuu....Chary, good to see that you came out of your romantic fog....er, mist......uh, Myst? Believe it or not, my ranting and rambling actually had a message for you and your cohorts, and if you read what I've said instead of just selecting little sound bytes that fit into your warped view of the world, you would know that, once again, all I'm saying is to be open.....skeptical but open. You got the first part right and practice it so well that you're collectively going through life with virtual blinders on. Why are you guys so thick? I really thought you were smart enough to grasp even a small bit of the openess thingie. Is the air a little stale in the museum? Are you still breathing that same old 1836 air? [I don't mean that in a bad way :o)] And Chary, you fool for love.....I didn't think we were arguing; just having a little fun. Have you been upset instead of smiling? I'm sorry, really......I appolize. Look, I'm on my knees begging your forgiveness. Ciao, everybody, I love you all....PAR-BOILED, as W.C Fields once said about children....lol. [And Sir Stephen said I don't have a sense of humor.] Oh what food you morsels be!
Citizen Premier in spite of public outcry Member	Posted: Wed Jul 06, 2005 \| 02:30 PM Dismissing reincarnation out of hand is about as bad as dismissing the tooth fairy out of hand. There's a muchly much-much more likely explanation, and that is that money is replaced at night by parents. Now if someone could provide evidence that it was a fairy that delivered the money (such as putting the tooth in a container that could only be accessed by a fairy-sized creature, or setting up a video camera), someone would stop and examine. But we always assume human interference first, because it is more likely.<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Occam%27s_razor">Occam's Razor</a>. P.S. Bill Clinton was the best looking president of the past 4 decades.
Charybdis in Hell Member	Posted: Wed Jul 06, 2005 \| 02:32 PM jamieblone, once again you have completely failed to post a meaningful response. Do you have a point about reincarnation, or are you just goofing off? If you want me to be more open, then stop posting garbage and say something meaningful. I am more than willing to listen to any coherent reply that you make.

X in McKinney, TX Member	Posted: Wed Jul 06, 2005 \| 02:48 PM I think your having fun Chary!!!! U CAN DO IT!!!!!!! :cheese:
X in McKinney, TX Member	Posted: Wed Jul 06, 2005 \| 02:51 PM But what do I know....Were too thick headed and not open minded on subjects like this. JB is more advanced then us weak minded people.
Cranky Media Guy	Posted: Wed Jul 06, 2005 \| 05:20 PM Jamie, you provide NO evidence for the existance of reincarnation, then chide us for being "closed-minded" when we don't concede that it exists. IF you provided any FACTS that demonstrated the existance of reincarnation and we refused to even consider them, you would, in fact, have a legitimate argument that we were being closed-minded. You don't do that, however; you merely assert its existance and expect us to accept it as fact. It isn't "open-mindedness" you want from us, it's credulity. On another somewhat related topic, I agree with you about Scientology. I wonder, though, why, since you are so skeptical about the dubious (to say the least) claims of Scientology, you don't apply the same skepticism to reincarnation.
jamieblonde	Posted: Wed Jul 06, 2005 \| 06:48 PM Hi boys and girls!! Look, I don't believe in reincarnation either, but I leave myself OPEN to the possibility. There are serious books written about it, which I've read, [I doubt you have,] and many more with misinformation that merely sensationalize it. If you really want to have a serious discussion about it, then you should do your homework first. But I suspect that you won't, and will continue to repeat the same things, i.e. "Where's the proof, where's the prooooooof?" It's easier for you to ridicule things you don't understand than actually investigate it. I don't see any curiosity from any of you concerning learning more about the human mind, only using your forum to pat each other on the backs and enjoy feeling superior, smug and secure in each other's company. Have you ever meditated, [or even read a book about it,] and learned through experience that you're not just your bodies? Of course, in order to do that, you would have to drop your egos, your thinking minds, to achieve that state of being. Good luck, you guys will need it....lol. Yea yea, I know......go ahead, it's one more thing you can have fun with. Btw, I still haven't heard a word from you concerning my post about what state the mind is in when we sleep. Don't you wonder about these things, or is it more fun to put down anyone who even mentions them? Here's something else to ridicule. Last year, I saw either an alien craft or a human technology that hasn't been revealed to us yet. It wasn't exactly a UFO that was unidentified, because we were close enough, approx 500 feet, to see that it was a saucer-shaped craft....no sound at all and hovered over the lake where we live. There was no doubt that it was a flying object, the only question for us was the identity of the ones flying it. We didn't report it because we didn't want the negative attention. The media has done a good job of turning it into a joke and people like you have taken the bait, hook line and sinker. My guess is that the only things you know about this subject are what you read at the supermarket checkout. Go ahead, keep laughing, but my husband and kids saw the same thing. Was the whole family hallucinating? That's one of the responses I'd expect from you geniuses. Looks like you've got a lot more grist for your ridicule-mill now, huh boys? Jamie :o) "There are more things in heaven and earth than are dreamt of in your philosophy." [Shakespeare's Hamlet to his friend Horatio]
Boo in The Land of the Haggii... Member	Posted: Wed Jul 06, 2005 \| 06:59 PM Trans;ation: Blah, blah, blah, quote. JB, we'd all appreciate it if you mentioned your points (assuming you have any) in a relevant manner. If you can't, we'll all assume you're a fourteen year old looking for attention, and your posts will be deleted.
Citizen Premier in spite of public outcry Member	Posted: Wed Jul 06, 2005 \| 08:17 PM Reality is that which, when you stop thinking about it, doesn't go away. Keep in mind that the same power for our human minds to be missled also applies to you. If there is evidence that the human essence exists outside the body, that evidence should be presentable to skeptics and not just to those that believe. Also, you didn't discribe the movement of the craft--for all we know it was just a cloud or an odd building catching the light in a strange way. Also, it might have been a mirage. Would I be wrong if I said that you had strong hopes of seeing a UFO before you saw this object? We all hallucinate to some degree, and we all can work ourselves up and convince ourselves we see something that isn't there. In my opinion, keeping an open mind means being skeptical to extrodinary claims of individuals and being open to the possibility of lies and overactive imaginations.
Smerk in to mischief Member	Posted: Wed Jul 06, 2005 \| 09:17 PM We'll listen when there's something worth listening to. After all, this is supposed to be a discussion about a news article on the possibility of a little boy being a reincarnation of a WWII fighter pilot...
Winona in USA Member	Posted: Wed Jul 06, 2005 \| 09:38 PM Amazingly self centered to think that people should comment on every little thing you say, considering you went wildly off topic. Besides, what do you really expect from people who frequent a forum focused on hoaxes? Blind belief, or scepticism? I know what I expect.
Charybdis in Hell Member	Posted: Wed Jul 06, 2005 \| 10:07 PM Okay, I gave jb a chance to become coherent. Stephen, feel free to remove any further off-topic posts - I give up trying to make sense of her. She just won't listen.

Blah	Posted: Thu Jul 07, 2005 \| 08:15 AM Jamieblonde, I think people might be more responsive to your points if you were less condenscending. You come in here acting like you're better than everyone else because you're so "open minded." Well...you're not better, and no one really cares about your argument, because you don't have one! You're just rambling on and on because you have some sort of agenda. So whatever.
Myst Member	Posted: Sun Jul 10, 2005 \| 04:57 PM Ah Myst, I can't marry you now.-Chary Awww Just because I'm a Liberal Democrat or because I believe in reincarnation? 😜
SCL	Posted: Mon Jul 11, 2005 \| 05:07 AM AHA! What be this before me? Another thread gone horribly awry? Well, let me clean the slate for my grand opening! I, do believe in such things as reincarnation, telepathy, telekenesis and all that. BUUUUUUUT! I'm also a very scientific person... Ok, i admit, JB doesnt offer any proof that it does exist... But do you have any proof against it? take the initiative ffs... Must you take the lashings of such a linguist before you can show your hand? or are you just bluffing a royal flush? JB, when you said "to pat each other on the backs and enjoy feeling superior, smug and secure in each other's company." i fully understand what your saying. BUUUT (i use alot of buts eh?) this is not entirely a bad thing... its good that they stand together, but this is kind of an inapropriate place for such camaradery no? Personnaly, i consider these threads as a place where you post your own opinion in a productive manner and theorise things. A conversation continues as long as there are questions. If 1 answer is given, be it tru or false, the conversation comes to an end and it becomes a conflict. (any way, its more fun to answer a question with a question 😛) Soooooooooo.. Back to the original subject... Reincarnation. Uhhhhh... well you might have to wait a tad for it to come back... horribly bad memory and slight ADD (it just makes things more interresting does it not?) And for any 1 reading this with an IQ above 140, "You must deal with alot of turkeys to fly like an eagle!"
roAE	Posted: Mon Jul 11, 2005 \| 05:24 AM This would be a respectable place to debate reality and hoaxes if you guys didn't constantly get into pissing matches. Lets try to be bigger, and debate only the facts or "facts as we see them." Love the thinking (when I can get it)! ro
Charybdis in Hell Member	Posted: Mon Jul 11, 2005 \| 07:44 AM We would debate the facts if people would present any. Instead they ramble on about Clinton and liberals and people not being 'open'. I don't need to provide proof that reincarnation doesn't exist. If you want me to be 'open' and believe it then you need to provide evidence (real evidence, not that "My teacher said that a guy he knew had a neighbor..." crap) and convince me of it. Don't bitch about me being closed minded if you can't be bothered to support your outlandish claims. Plenty of us are open minded, admittedly most more so than me, but nobody so far has provided anything more than incoherent ranting. Some people's minds are so open that their brains seem to have leaked out. Myst, it's certainly not because you're a liberal hippie pinko. 😛
Myst Member	Posted: Mon Jul 11, 2005 \| 12:41 PM Myst, it's certainly not because you're a liberal hippie pinko. What the heck is a pinko?? LOL

SCL	Posted: Mon Jul 11, 2005 \| 02:34 PM Unfortunately Char, there is no hard evidence on any of the paranormal things out there... Unless of course you have unlimited access to all the "top secret files of the CIA 😛 OOO! i Remember now! It's called remote viewing (plz look it up before you say anything...) With the theory of remote viewing, (if this kid had some sort of uber skillz at this) would explain why the kid would know such things.
Charybdis in Hell Member	Posted: Mon Jul 11, 2005 \| 04:06 PM Lack of hard evidence should be a tip-off that maybe there's nothing to believe in. If you believe in things for which there is no evidence then you might as well believe everything - Santa Clause, the Tooth Fairy, the Easter Bunny, Harvey. For some bizarre reason, lack of evidence seems to make these people believe even more.
Dude	Posted: Mon Jul 11, 2005 \| 04:32 PM Let me ask a quick question, Do you believe the earth orbits the sun? if yes what is your proof?
Charybdis in Hell Member	Posted: Mon Jul 11, 2005 \| 05:37 PM The fact that the Earth orbits the sun can be shown to be true using measurements of the planets movements as the move around the sun. With enough measurements you can triangulate (if that's the right word, if not it's the right sentiment) the position of the Earth at any given time. There is no way to interpret the data to show that the sun orbits the Earth. It's been tried and it's failed. While I don't have the necessary math skills to prove it, any mathemetician or astronomer should be able to show you enough to get you started so you can prove it to yourself. It is completely reproducible by any person with the necessary fundamentals. Show me any evidence of reincarnation that I can follow the same procedures for. If it's a personal experience then it counts for nothing. Only hard data that be analyzed by anybody counts.
Citizen Premier in spite of public outcry Member	Posted: Mon Jul 11, 2005 \| 06:07 PM That is to say, in the old days, mathmatical astronomy systems that had the sun and the planets orbiting the earth failed utterly to predict the future movements of the planets. Those that had the earth and other planets orbiting the sun were much more succesful.
Dude	Posted: Mon Jul 11, 2005 \| 06:55 PM OK i got your proof. Remember that movie The Mummy 2. I thought they had good proof. Especially that one scene where she almost fell out of that airship when she was reliving her past. I thought that was really good proof. 😜 I want to be cremated, figure I would go good in a bowl of chili. No need pepper i got essence of dude.
Smerk in to mischief Member	Posted: Mon Jul 11, 2005 \| 07:04 PM :roll: Well, if we're gonna start citing works of fiction as proof, let's not forget X-Files episode "Born Again" from season 1, where a little girl mutilates her dolls in the exact same fashion as a cop was killed eight years previously (supposedly her past life). And to fill the book quota, how about Katherine Kerr's "Deverry" series, where reincarnation plays the biggest part in moving the story forward... [/sarcasm]
Dude	Posted: Mon Jul 11, 2005 \| 07:25 PM Yea your right X-Files has a lot of proof on so many things. That should be our "new" scientology religion. Can I be the Revered Leader? 😝 fin sarcasm

With the theory of remote viewing, (if this kid had some sort of uber skillz at this) would explain why the kid would know such things." Ever wondered how money gets placed underneath the pillows of kids who lose a tooth? There's this theory of The Tooth Fairy (look it up before you pooh-pooh it). If that theory is accurate, then there's just no mystery as to how that money gets there, is there? It's SO simple, if you will only keep an open mind.

DFStuckey	Posted: Tue Jul 12, 2005 \| 01:16 AM Remote viewing is simply a form of reverse memory or recalling things your future and/or alternate self knows, according to J W Dunne's theory of time streams and human minds. The simplest way to verify if remote viewing is possible in fact is to have a remote viewer observe a location and then prevent them remembering it from when they see the photo of the target location at a point in the future: Simple removal of the head from the body would work. If remote viewing IS a paranormal power, it will still happen, but if the viewer cannot detect anything, it shows that reverse memory is involved. But try getting the proposal past an ethics committee . . . . :coolsmile:
