   Suze is a shaman.   
      
   If I have have the misfortune of seeing Suze in an airport, (on his   
   way to another gab fest telling the locals to stay home) about the   
   only place that you see him other than wanly smilling for the CBC   
   camera, I want to ask him if he is a shaman or a scientist. I would   
   bet that he would take a minute to think about it and then happily   
   say: I am a shamatist.   
      
   Just to be sure, I looked up sham and found this:   
      
   1. Something false or empty that is purported to be genuine; a   
   spurious imitation.   
   2. The quality of deceitfulness; empty pretense.   
   3. One who assumes a false character; an impostor: 'He a man! Hell! He   
   was a hollow sham!' (Joseph Conrad).   
   4. A decorative cover made to simulate an article of household linen   
   and used over or in place of it: a pillow sham.
