...boomers once boasted of never trusting anyone over 30, Xers have even more cause for disillusion. Between 1965 and 1977, the divorce rate doubled. More than 40% of today's young adults had spent time in a single-parent home by age 16. Did the psychic toll produce latch-key basket cases or self-reliant survivors? Undoubtedly, both. In their coupling habits, Gen X is the "youngest copulating and oldest marrying generation ever recorded," note Strauss and Howe. Since 1970 the average marriage age has crept up from 23 to 27 for men and from 21 to 25 for women...
...Harvard-educated physician, ought to know better than to tell stories like this. But Weil has a thousand of them. There's the one about the 19-year-old girl just months away from dying of a terminal blood disease who began a regimen of hypnotherapy, diet therapy and psychic healing, miraculously overcame her affliction and is now a 43-year-old mother of four.

But even the most jaded Bell fans were excited when Courtney Brown, an Emory University professor, called to make a patently ludicrous announcement: his team of three psychic "remote viewers" had focused on Shramek's object and determined it was a spaceship full of aliens. Furthermore, Brown claimed, he had a photograph of the craft taken by a "Top-10-university astronomy professor," who had told him radio signals were coming from the object, indicating it was "intelligently...
...Universal. Amistad, his first for DreamWorks, will open at Christmas.) Katzenberg says there are no losers, since Paramount gets control over domestic distribution of the comet movie Deep Impact, another joint venture to be produced--but not directed--by Spielberg. Meanwhile, the DreamWorkers should work on developing Spielberg's psychic abilities. Maybe they could have skipped all that trouble over the sitcom Ink and held off the splashy announcement about their dream studio at Playa Vista, where ground has yet to be broken...
