The tubes! It's the tubes!
« on: June 04, 2015, 11:09:24 AM »

The existence of plasma tubes in the Earth's atmosphere has been confirmed.

The discovery was made by Cleo Loi, a 23-year old student of astrophysics at the University of Sydney and lead author of the paper documenting the phenomenon.

Plasma tubes are created as the sun interacts with the earth's magnetic field.  They are thought to be the cause of the occasional signal interference experienced by navigation devices.

Did you notice that nothing - absolutely nothing - was said about chemtrails?  Or about the alien overlords who live in the tubes?

stay safe.

Perhaps the chemtrails are affecting his behavior.

I saw something on this from the Science or Discovery Channel I think.  I thought they were pointing at some of the unexplained airliner crashes also.

I had to look it up. And, apparently it's so old there's not even a wikipedia entry for it! (But some people still discuss it on forums...)

I wish the Ring had never come to me. I wish none of this had happened.

So do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us. There are other forces at work in this world, Frodo, besides the will of evil. Bilbo was meant to find the Ring. In which case, you also were meant to have it. And that is an encouraging thought

There was someone here who was convinced that the Rods of Ra were real...

Either that or he was doing a decent job of selling it...

 It's the Pax. The G-23 Paxilon Hydrochlorate that we added to the air processors. It was supposed to calm the population, weed out aggression. Well, it works. The people here stopped fighting. And then they stopped everything else. They stopped going to work, they stopped breeding, talking, eating. There's 30 million people here, and they all just let themselves die.

Not anymore.  =|


Sure they do. Only now they're wrapped in a fancy plastic box labeled "Willow Curve".

The willow curve is at least based on something approaching sound science. I can't tell if it's laser based or LED based, though.

I know various laser based treatments for joint issues, including arthritis, tendonitis, etc., are becoming more and more common and are acknowledged to be effective in certain cases. Friend of mine is a DC and uses laser therapy. He treated my tennis elbow a couple of years ago after I was helping him get his Mom's place ready for sale. It actually helped quite a bit.

If the willow curve is LED based.... no clue as to its value, but LED light treatment does seem to be coming into its own for various things. But, I'm having problems tracking down any real studies with associated data.

If the IR wavelength is right, there's no debate that it can penetrate the skin at least.

If a double-blind study with controls shows it works... Good enough.

Yep, this one was an IR laser. In that sense I think it works in a fashion similar to ultrasound in that it causes heating of the affected areas, which increases blood flow. But, ultrasound can have some drawbacks in treating some of these conditions.

You want to see someone jump? Give them an ultrasound treatment on an area that has a fresh stress fracture. BOOM! Right through the roof.

I was a student trainer in college and I was treating one of the runners for shin splints, which included ultrasound. One day he's fine with the treatment, next day he comes in after practice, I start ultrasound and he screamed and jumped off the treatment table like a scalded rat.

I stuck my hand once into an ultrasonic cleaner bath to snag out a part.

I only did that once. Grabbing an electric livestock fence is more pleasant.

I once almost purchased the willow curve because my left elbow is hurting for some reason.  I called up on the phone,went  through the process   and asked how much the thing cost.
...........
$695.00
 :O.

Ah, no thanks, cancel   the order.

Advil is less expensive.
