"It occurred to me, listening to what
the walkers were saying, that often
what people tell you is the reason
that they don't burn is actually more
the reason why they have the
courage to take the first step. I'm
beginning to see more the value of
firewalking to folks who are trying
to bring about change in their lives.
I still don't think that there is
anything supernatural about it, I
doubt anyone could have taken
more than 2 or 3 steps per foot on a
fire that was all at 1800 F. but do
realize that there is a lot of
psychology to it. It ain't just
Physics!"

Hummm, he's a stobborn cuss.
"It isn't all physics!"? Then what else is there? Religion? The supernatural.
David Willey recently told me that last week he made a 25 foot Firewalk, in which he stopped and stood in the fire, reached down and played in the flames and fire.
I asked him how "poor heat conductivity" or the short length of time impacted on his thesis?
He refused to answer. He just said I was giving him too much credit to think anything supernatural was happening.
That reminds me of a song, "there are none so blind, as those who would not see."
So Ed, what now?
