I may be a skeptic - having been expelled from UT Austin's Aerospace
Engineering a semester short of my Ph.D for having found a faster,
safer, more efficient Earth to Mars trajectory

I would bet, oh, about a trillion, billion, quadrillion dollars that this
didn't happen as described above.

I'll take you up on that bet. Consider the following:

I refer you to the four editions of the popular book "The Relaxation
and Stress Reduction Workbook" for the documentation you seek on the
"orgasmic reconditioning" practice. As for the issue of
homosexuality, it's easy to search the literature from say fifteen
years ago, then compare it to the modern day and to see that modern
day psychologists consider this method to be too stressful,
homosexuality irreversible - and their decision irreversible.

You can ignore this issue all you like, but the bottom line is this:
evidently something has happened in the last fifteen years that has
diminished the stress coping capacity of ALL people everywhere. It is
not hard to qualify this statement: the Gulf War syndrome was a
stress disorder, never before experienced by soldiers. AIDS is
essentially a stress disorder, whereby the immune system is weakened.
The need for Viagra is a clear signal that fundamental physiological
processes of the human body are breaking down.

All of these conditions, of course, have chemical solutions. All I
was saying is that modern advertising is so powerful and the marketing
budget of the pharmaceutical companies is so limitless, that they are
driving all people into a chemical dependency and a chemical solution
for basic biological processes. Other than my scrawling in the
newsgroups, there is no opposition anywhere to this trend - thus, it
is not hard to extrapolate the trend, to say what I have said. I'm
sorry if that offends you, but if you were to study up on the issues I
think you would see more than an iota of truth in my statements.

I did not say that my theory was correct. I only stated that it fits
the facts better than any other, and implied that the political
implications are too stressful for psychiatrists to consider the
notion. That being the case, I suppose humanity will ultimately be a
buch of spineless quadrupeds cringing in the darkess, hiding from the
truth and shivering in the shadows afraid to move forward. I think
this whole NASA scenario pretty well proves all of that, without any
further ado.

Ignorance is bliss - ignore it while you still have some accessible
gray matter.
