Phantom Captain:
"Common to all such ‘human’ mechanisms- and without which they are imbecile contraptions-- is theif guidance by a phantom captain.
"This phantom captain has neither weight nor sensorial tangibility, as has often been scientifically proven by careful weighing operations at the moment of the abandonment of the ship by the phantom captain, i.e., at the instant of ‘death.’
He may be likened to the variant of polarity dominance in our bipolar electric world which, when balanced and unit, vanishes as abstract unity 1 or 0. With the phantom captain’s departure, the mechanism becomes inoperative and very quickly disintegrates into basic chemical elements. . . ."
