The following text is translation from Russian to English of a story taken from the book "Сверхъестественное. Научно доказанные факты (Supernatural. Scientifically proven facts). ISBN: 978-5-906789-00-6, Algorithm. Moscow, 2015" by Serge Kernbach.
This story is about a charming little experiment with sympathetic magic—it's as simple as it is convincing.
So, I had a wart under my nail. If you've ever had one of these unpleasant things, you know exactly what I’m talking about. I tried the over-the-counter freezing treatment, following the instructions to the letter. But, alas, it didn’t deliver the results the box had promised.
Next, I visited the doctor, who gave me a little bottle of liquid (a weak acid solution) that I was supposed to apply to the wart daily. I diligently followed this routine for several weeks, but again, the wart stubbornly refused to budge. By this time, about five or six months had passed since the wart first appeared, and it was looking pretty nasty. Worse still, it had grown larger and spread to more of my skin.
At this point, in a mix of frustration and desperation, I decided to try a well-known folk remedy. Now, I didn’t really believe it would work, but I figured, why not give it a shot? Here’s how the experiment went down.
I took an apple, cut it in half, dipped a string into the apple juice, and tied a knot over the wart. In my mind, I visualized that the knot was strangling the wart, causing it to fall off. Then, I tied the apple halves together with the same string and buried them in a field. The whole process took no more than half an hour. Being quite skeptical, I quickly forgot about the whole thing.
About two or three weeks later—after I’d stopped all other treatments—I noticed that the wart had completely disappeared. I should point out that I wasn’t consciously thinking about the wart during this time, nor was I doing any mental exercises. The timing of the wart’s disappearance coincided with the possible rotting of the buried apple.
Interestingly, there’s another folk remedy that works similarly. You take a potato, cut it in half, rub the wart with both cut sides, then put the halves back together and bury them in the ground. When the potato rots, the wart is supposed to vanish. (Editor's note.)
My original intention was to write about another hypothesis of how to obtain the fine structure constant through quantizing everything and using category theory, as in the following papers:
[1] Lucian M. Ionescu, “e, pi,chi,...,alpha?”

[2] Lucian M. Ionescu, “The Fine Structure Constant revisited”, https://vixra.org/abs/2308.0180
Then I thought, perhaps I will better write about gravity control and antigravity as in this paper:
[3] Lucian M. Ionescu, Alzofon-Ionescu Theory of Gravity, https://vixra.org/abs/2106.0056
But finally I decided that charming is more important. Question is: how exactly it works?
