Dear Mr. G,:
10 . might disillusi n you but
trology ran ri t up there
ith black magic, superstition
and hocus pocus. There' is no
solid evidence to support it a
guide to behavior or prognos­
tica . D. In fact, two years ago,
the country's'majo trologers
discovered that they had made a
major mistake in interpreting
- . the alignm nt of the planets. All
of tbeir data (volumes of it)
eeded to be drastically revised
Can you imagin the grossly
negative imp ct tttat revision of
all trologi data uld have?
That's why it aever revised
