Abstract of "Forced Catalysis and Guided Catalysis"

By Isaac Mannheim

We believe that the catalysis induced by Stardust should not and cannot be completely forced. For those individuals with no potential, the forced injection of a catalyst is simply a waste of resources. Therefore, my team always selects potential human subjects for experimentation via long-term follow-up observations. In certain cases we even perform emotional interference or inject small doses of Stardust during early observations. We allow the subjects to exist in their natural environment, unaware of our interference in their daily lives... We often say that follow-up observations need to be performed while the sample is totally unaware, since the observations are almost quantum mechanical in nature: as soon as the sample discovers the observer, all its possibilities instantaneously collapse...
