Leonard describes his talk this way:
"A discussion on the major paths of YOGA. The discussion will focus on applying these methods to our journey through life without constraints. How to apply these teachings without a in-depth knowledge of Eastern Religious texts will be discussed in away to fit the daily life style of Western culture. 'All humanity could share a common insanity and be immersed in a common illusion while living in a common chaos. This cannot be disproved.' ASIMOV"

Craig describes himself this way: “I was born in Baltimore, educated in the public schools here and graduated from Morgan State University. I’ve been interested in aliens since I was a child, and spent the last five years seriously researching the field. I’m also interested in metaphysics, clairvoyance and dreams. In India, I studied under a master. I’m a member of MUFON (the Mutual UFO Network) and the Theosophical Society. Currently, I’m trying to get to the UN and see what we’re going to do when the aliens do arrive here on Planet Earth.”
