Apparently Google is digitally archiving every major newspaper in the country.
Hope you've never appeared in one that you wouldn't want revealed.
I'm glad to see this. There are so many doubters around.

Everything had to pass the evidentiary test. As a mystic, I flunk. And seeing what they've done, I'm glad.
Constant reappraisal of everything. Not for the faint of heart, but that's never been a problem. My permanent seat in Hesse's Theater is next to Camus, at the abyss.
It may have been Grendel at an early age. Olive Beaupre Miller's Book House series of age-graded stories.
Olive Beaupre Miller (née Olive Kennon Beaupré) (September 11, 1883 - March 25, 1968) was an American author, publisher and editor of children's literature. She received her B.A. from Smith College in 1904. The Bookhouse for Children publishing company was founded in 1919 printing popular children's stories edited by Miller to meet her standards: * "First,--To be well equipped for life, to have ideas and the ability to express them, the child needs a broad background of familiarity with the best in literature. * "Second,--His stories and rhymes must be selected with care that he may absorb no distorted view of life and its actual values, but may grow up to be mentally clear about values and emotionally impelled to seek what is truly desirable and worthwhile in human living. * "Third,--The stories and rhymes selected must be graded to the child's understanding at different periods of his growth, graded as to vocabulary, as to subject matter and as to complexity of structure and plot." The company was also remarkable for its large female staff when most women did not work outside the home.

Really nothing mystical about it, in fact. Semantics is your issue. Semantics and enlightened understanding.
In the Jesus legend we see this time and again. Jesus knows whats going to happen next, who will betray him, who will deny him and who will crucify him.
Paranormal ability or just a very grounded and real understanding of what lies in the corrupt hearts and minds of the peeps surrounding him? I have met many peeps who have similar, startling ability to look at me and read whats in my mind.
Jesus legend is all the more astounding if you consider that he was a mortal. The supernatural hooey detracts from the courageous stand against the PTB.
Why people reject Jesus because of "Christianity" is one of the main questions that I have for Atheists. Reject the life after death meme if you must. Its not clear to me that the Sunday School version of heaven is what Jesus meant. I dont believe he did mean that there was a heaven as portrayed in "Revelations" and subsequent Christian dogma.
Siddartha quite explicitly started his study of life rejecting the notion that a symbolic "God" was even relevant to his study.
A mystic is someone who maintains a more clarified perspective on the nature of reality
Semantics and enlightened understanding.
Jesus knows whats going to happen next, who will betray him, who will deny him and who will crucify him.
BTW, that Hrdy lecture you attended fits perfectly within Buddha's teachings. modern science merely regurging ancient wisdom.
The pre-civilized earliest humans, who lived together by necessity in order to survive and not in the competition that we know today were closer to what Buddha describes as "original mind." The mind that we possess today and that Hrdy deplores is the "false mind" that Buddha teaches has been added from without, perverting our true human nature.
Very simple concept. If you werent so closed to the nature of reality you would see Hrdy's lecture as mundane, redundant to what is already established and known.
I do give her props, however, for incorporating mispellicism into her own name.
