It is a well known fact that the common cold is not like other diseases
but is caused by viral material carried in the tails of comets entering
the earth's atmosphere. What would be needed for a psychic cure of
this would be planetary belief in the healing process. This is something
that modern mass media should be able to achieve in the near future.
I note that they don't offer to cure congenital stupidity either.
