You could control anything with crystals in the 70s, but this power went away some time in the 80s when floppy disks and eventually cds were shown to have greater storage capacity. Sean Connery used one in Zardoz to control space and time as well as meditate at second level. As far as I know Christopher Reeve was the last to effectively use crystals to control things and watch movies of his father giving him advice.

26. You can negotiate with Pakunis if you carry a knife or have perfume.

27. I always keep a ramrod next to my front door in case a T-Rex attacks or JWs get too pushy.
