Sorry, I can't help myself, but I love the connections between the language of science and the experience of spirit. I'm all over this. From Slashdot and others:
Quantum zeno effect explains bird navigation
April 18th, 2008 | by KFC | 
Just how birds use the earth’s magnetic field to navigate has puzzled researchers for decades.

Quotes from his patients during the... [Read More]
