He had visited 150 bands, none of whom spoke English (as a primary language) and all had excellent health and great teeth.
Then, he visited England which did speak English (as a primary language) and had poor health and poor teeth.
Frankly, the conclusion is irrefutable.
- breck 2y agoThere are no randomized controlled trials showing parachutes work. A working model of nature >> a large symbolic dataset >> a large personal dataset >> anecdotes. This is a bit of #1 and #3. Sure, #2 would be great, but #1 (mouth breathing bad) seems highly likely given both studying anatomy and modeling the physics of breathe and also given his dataset #3.

I agree that mouth breathing is probably bad. I don't agree that it causes spinal deformation or smallpox. I really don't think taping the mouth shut is a safe treatment for sleep apnea.
