Ramon to R.S.

John Ott's time-lapse films comparing children's activity levels in a fluorescent-lit classroom versus ones with full-spectrum lighting or just sunlight are fascinating! The kids really settle down. I'll attach the article I wrote in the seventies for the C0Ev Quarterly. Excuse if this is a duplicate. The spirit is willing, but the brain is shot.

Ott's work doesn't have anything to do with the pineal directly, but who knows what effects artificial lighting is having on various hormonal functions, etc. A lot, I am sure, like earlier puberty, etc.

Sometimes I try to imagine how life must have been before 1) electricty 2) gas light 3) candles, oil -- just sitting around hallucinating into the campfire. And then... BEFORE fire! Just dissolving into the pitch dark.

Clifford Pickover wrote a piece, in which he refers to a little conversation we had, about how with the advent of indoor light (even extending to torches), our pineals got more oppressed/shrunken, thus limiting its synthetic capacities, perhaps to make DMT. He's got a site. I think I may even link to it on my site.

Keep me posted. Come visit in New Mexico.
