Wry. It means, as I have said above, in the words which directly followed
this statement: "But anybody can say anything. I have made this point plain.
That it why it is necessary to begin to verify..." etc. It is one medium
applied to another. When dealing with "magic" use "magic." I am not talking
about ordinary black or white magic as silly people babble about, but the
power of imagination. I love hearing from you, and if you want to question
me any further on this subject, I will do my best to reply to any of your
questions or comments. As far as being from the same society as Madame
Blavatsky, I am from The Bees, as was Madame Blavatsky. The chance of
encountering anyone from this society is extraordinarily rare. (But maybe
this is all my imagination. Ha ha.) In any case, we do not tell, we show.
Most Sincerely, Wry
