They're thinking physical death, we assume, because they go ahead and eat and then immediately something else happens. That's what deception does.” –Dr. David Pocta Links: Dr. David Pocta:   / dpocta   Hannah DeSouza:   / hannah-desouza-503ba1142   Slideshow: https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/fmq89u...
