> None of which gets round the core issue: if EHS is real, I asked Diane, then why has it not shown up in formal experiments? “I encourage scientists to go to where we are and measure the environment,” she replied. “Don’t try to pretend that you’re God and expose us to different frequencies in a lab. That’s like taking someone and breaking their legs and asking how much it hurts.”
That would in fact let you determine if breaking someone's leg caused them pain, though.
- SomeStupidPoint 11y agoAlso, we have probably tens of thousands of records of times that we either intentionally or accidentally, but under heavy observation broke someone's leg, and they seem to pretty reliably be disturbed by the incident. (We actually have effectively done controlled experiments on leg breaking during various times we used torture methods to kill people, and as you say, it turns out that it hurt them.) If the EMF people had a fraction of that evidence, everyone would take them much more seriously.
- saalweachter 11y agoWe do break people's bones pretty regularly as part of a medical intervention. The simplest case is just resetting a bone that healed crooked, but there are countless other ways, like in open-heart surgery or an orthodontic procedure that involves breaking the upper or lower jaw.
- __z 11y agoRemoval of impacted wisdom teeth (a common procedure) often involves removal of bone.
- girvo 11y agoI have a bit of bone right above my two front teeth that was removed -- right in the middle of it was a random tooth. I like to think it was my egg-tooth, but regardless, I was in rather a lot of pain after the operation; turns out removing and breaking bone hurts quite a lot.
- Retra 11y agoHey, it's more important that they don't suffer at all than it is to actually understand what's going on and help people. It's like these free energy guys who give the whole thing up after a run in with a black van and some suits in sunglasses: never-mind that it would completely change the world and solve untold problems. There was a black van and vague threats.
