There is a lot of bandying about of the term "energy" by the new
superstitionists.  I wish they would cut it out; "energy" has precise
properties (as the term has been refined by Physics) that make it
practically certain that all these "life energies" do not exist.
Maybe there is something real being talked about, but "energy" is
the wrong term for it.
