The Invader boys present a hard case, mostly because they start feeling very degraded. And there are several crews of those, by the way. There’s not just one crew. And all of them feel more or less degraded. But the third battalion of the Fifth Invader Force is practically out through the bottom of the chute. You’d have to invent something below minus eight.1
When they first find themselves turning on a small beam of energy, they just collapse. It’s a level of degradation you never heard of, yet they might be operating quite well. They’re, by the way, terribly effective here on Earth as revolutionaries. So we quite often find them in Scientology.
They’re quite effective. That’s what’s strange about it. They can’t handle any more force than that, but how much force are they capable of handling, just beyond computation, practically.
