This thread is quite sad overall. IMHO, you have to have something seriously, physically wrong with your brain in order to simultaneously hold a PhD and believe in some of the things Dusty has put forward. I am tempted to think that, unlike the majority of woo peddlers, she cannot help her beliefs and legitimately thinks she is doing the world some kind of service. If that is the case, we can only hope her friends and family recognize that there is a problem and try to get her the help she needs.
