Discovery work cannot be done *without* touching and looking. We
are enjoined to "investigate" them. This can't be done by remote
control!

Watch this space for results of some of my own study and investigation.

As the TI "Statement of Intent" puts it, we need

2. To encourage and *engage in* the study of comparative religion,
 theosophy, philosophy, and the scientific method, according to
 individual ability and inclination.

3. To *investigate* mysteries of nature and unrealized human
 potential and abilities, with an underlying respect for all
 life.

My emphasis.
