benefit throughout history and there is no reason to believe that they will make any great changes. They will go on starting wars so that they can sell munitions, influencing governments to implement grandiose schemes, based on tainted evidence, to further their own commercial interests and manipulating the media to promote their own agenda. I am tempted to take up Arthur's offer of playing host to a Psychid and joining them. The opportunity of a vastly extended life and well being is a great temptation. Given the time and ability to explore this world and its secrets would fulfill the aspirations of anyone with an enquiring mind but I shrink from allowing some unknown life form to invade my thoughts and body. Despite Arthur's assurances I cannot believe that the relationship is an equal balance. I am reminded of that horrifying film 'Invasion Of The Body Snatchers' and it fills me with an apprehension I cannot dispel. Perhaps the best choice is, as Arthur suggested, to return to my hitherto comfortable and uneventful life and simply let matters take their course but would pangs of conscience everlastingly trouble me? Would I always be looking for the signs that society was being maneuvered and manipulated?
I have finally reached a decision. I cannot allow this monstrous subversion of our way of life. The world must be made aware of this insidious invasion by alien life forms. I have written this account on my laptop and now I will upload it into the internet for all to read. Once it is sent on its way I do not believe it is within the power of Arthur and his shadowy organisation to prevent its widespread dissemination. As you read this be afraid, be very afraid.

To all members of the Faculty of Psychology.
It is with the greatest sadness that I have to inform you of the untimely death of our colleague James Curzon which occurred a few days ago. It would appear that James was returning from a seminar in London and that as he was waiting at King's Cross Underground Station he stumbled and fell into the path of an approaching train with fatal consequences. I am sure you will all join with me in offering our sincere condolences. I understand that his old friend, Arthur Harrison, a one-time member of the Department, who was with him at the time, has made the offer of a generous donation to the University to provide a bursary in James's name. Please note that a Memorial service will be held by the University Chaplain in the Great Hall next Tuesday at 10.30, all are welcome.
Daniel Mainwaring, Dean of the Faculty of Psychology.
