I will guarantee anonymity except in cases of blatant abuse.
I will achieve anonymity by tallying the results in
uncorrelated tabulations and then deleting the emails.
(I know this loses interesting correlation data, but if
resondents want anonymity it's hard to avoid.)
I know that this anonymity promise depends on trust and that
you have no particular reason to trust me. Someday, I hope.
I will post results Saturday.

invaders. The hermits, immured for years in solitary dark-
ness in search of spiritual advancement, had been blinded
on the instant when sunlight had entered their cells. Al-
most without exception, the hermit was stretched dead
beside his ruined home, with his life-long friend and
servant stretched dead beside him.
I could look no more. Carnage? Senseless murder of the
innocent, defenseless monks? What was the use? I turned
away and called upon those who guided me to remove me
from this graveyard.
My task in life, I had known from the start, was in con-
nection with the human aura, that radiation which entirely
surrounds the human body, and by its fluctuating color
shows the Adept if a person is honorable or otherwise.
The sick person could have his or her illness seen by the
colors of the aura. Everyone must have noticed the haze
around a street light on a misty night. Some may even
have noticed the well-known "corona discharge" from
high tension cables at certain times. The human aura is
somewhat similar. It shows the life force within. Artists of
old painted a halo, or nimbus round the head of saints.
Why? Because they could see the aura of those people.
Since the publication of my first two books people have
written to me from all over the world, and some of those
people can also see the aura.

Years ago a Dr. Kilner, researching at a London Hospital,
found that he could, under certain circumstances, see the
aura. He wrote a book about it. Medical science was not
ready for such a discovery, and all that he had discovered
was hushed up. I too, in my way, am doing research, and
I visualize an instrument which will enable any medical
man or scientist to see the aura of another and cure "in-
curable" illnesses by ultra-sonic vibrations. Money, money,
that is the problem. Research always was
