	If it's the same Carl Faber I had for Psychology of
Interpersonal Relations at UCLA back in the late 60's, he's a
doctor of psychology. And either that quote is out of context, or
he's changed a *lot* in the last 20 years. His big thing in the
60's was Kundalini Yoga, and he seemed about as sexually
liberated as one could be. Hippy with a capital H. He did always
have a flair for the dramatic statement, though.
