I hate that this is flagged. HN's penchant for self-stifling interesting discussions is probably its worst feature.

Does astrology work? Almost certainly not. (Though I will suggest that the position of ONE PARTICULAR STAR could have some measurable effects.)

However, a discussion wherein a community of smart folks use logic and the scientific method to lead someone from a pasture of mysticism to one of rational thinking could be a very interesting discussion indeed. Especially since we seem to be in the middle of a resurgence of unscientific thinking...
