No he's not. He _knows_ _nothing_ about the facts. She _already_ has been checked by several doctors.
Only those completely ignorant about channeling claim it is some sort of "medical condition"
And your medical degree is _where_ again?? It is always amazing how someone is an armchair expert on someone they have never even met but I guess it is easier to look like a fool then to learn the facts.
Your first mistake is assuming the Mind == Brain. That is incorrect. The mind doesn't depend the physical.
A poor analogy would be:
* Brain = Hardware
* Mind = Software
Your second mistake is assuming that it is not possible to transfer your mind. My wife channels other consciousness for a short time. The point is, whatever consciousness is (or isn't), consciousness is NOT physical as Peter Russell correctly points out in his The Primacy of Consciousness
Your third mistake is assuming you consciousness dies when the body dies. This is also incomplete. Your mind is not confined, nor defined by, the limits of space or time.
If you have ever had an OBE you would understand these fundamentals about the mind.

The 'x' in 0x stands for hexidecimal
I picked 'z' because:
a) it is not a hex digit
b) it close to x to type
c) it is a mnemonic for zero
d) it stands just enough out
e) it has an hint of symmetry about it -- z is the last character in the alphabet so using it for the lowest number base seems appropriate.
Considering some assemblers have used the dumb '%' percent sign to designate binary, having a consistent form with C's hex literal leaves a little choices:
Using a
That leaves: g, h, j, k, m, n, p, q, r, s, t, u, v, w, y , z
0g110101 looks dumb
0h110101 looks dumb, some languages use 'h' for hex
0j110101
0k110101
0m110101 blends in
0n110101 blends in
0p110101
0q110101
0r110101 blends in
0s110101
0t110101 blends in
0u110101 used for unsigned -- not appropiate
0v110101 maybe
0w110101 too verbose
0y110101 maybe
0z110101
So which symbol would you pick??
Considering I am a rendering/optimization/UI expert working for a Fortune 50 company on R&D you tell me?
Without janitors to keep the place clean people would get sick. Everybody has their role to do a company -- no one is more important, or less important, for a company to function properly and efficiently.

Here is some free advice:

How is that deprecated auto_ptr working out for you?
C++ has become a complete cluster fuck of over-engineering. The lambda syntax is hideous. Hell even Javascript makes it easy to declare anonymous functions!
An honest person wouldn't be afraid to admit that.
