	    If anyone wants to discuss the above matters, I would ask that they
    do it on other bboards.  Physicists often speculate about the universe, but
    in my experience rarely do so unless the phenomena in question either can be
    observed directly or indirectly (that is, the consequences of the phenomena
    may be observed).  PK. magic, life-forces, God, clairvoyance, and ESP may
    well exist.  However, unless and until repeated, controlled experiments
    demonstrate any of the above phenomena, or the phenomena in question are
    observed in a fashion that suggests a decisive experiment, I for one do not
    give a damn.

I do not agree with your point of view. I believe that if you wish to
cause a discussion to end then there should be an opportunity for the
readers to voice themselves. As a physicist I find these discussions
particularly interesting and do not believe they should appear outside
of the physics mailing list. I think this is the proper place for this
information. 

Can we have a vote please?
