CR4 Forum: Re:Sacred Cows in Science. Gena 11/15/2008 Comment #10

Thank you for the civility of this email. I have monitored the CR4 webite for over a year, and I am impressed with humor and honesty expressed among the memers. Not so impressed with the diatribe allocated to a new member trying to find a way to communicate with the other members...

GSC has up to 30 years left to organize his notebooks and derive their contents into a working manuscript. Unfortunately he is not in any hurry, retirement does that to a person, and I referenced a website to you guys that is less than 10 percent completed. Future submissions will provide scientific details about each keyword mentioned on the website index page. The hue and cry for "evidence" will not be met until patent disclosures are processed, and dissemination of patent content is essential to protect patent rights.

However, in the spirit of the comaraderie usually express on this website, I present the following technical information:

1. The rumor that magnetic radiation will react with the electromagnetic fields around operating electronic circuits is not true. The idea that this interaction will disable the electronic function during field operation can not be true. Actually, a big purple finger materializes out of nowhere, and pushes the power button into the off mode...

2. The rumor that magnetic radiation penetrates the dermal and epithelial tissue layers and further reacts with cortical control can not be true. Actually the test subject suddenly dances around wildly singing out , "I think I can. I think I can." while tearing his hair out.

3. The thought that military surveillance may occur if magnetic radiation interferes with ELF military communications is just plain dumb. Actually, the military will not take action until the interferance hurts the communication process, and then the perpetrator just disappears and all records of his existance are erased from computer memory.

4. The rumor that magnetic radiation will transform cubic inorganic material into layered hexagonal stacked crystals has to be made up by the researcher. Actually the researcher spilled a drop of Mountain Dew into the test chamber during his caffeine high.

The list could go on, but enough is enough... Gena

One sacred cow of science has been the "scientific method" of verification. Many scientists live or die by that philosophy, especially if they have two or more PhD's attached to their name. If the test results do not reproduce under identical conditions, then the test results are system artifacts, or worse, and the testing should be discarded. This is a good and essential part of scientific pursuit, and it has carried the scientific community for several generations.

However, the scientific method has little or no value in discovery of new phenomena. Very little discovery has been derived from logical extension of results verified from the scientific method procedures. Perception of test result anomalies have yielded many new discoveries independent of results derived from scientific method endeavors.

Flemings' associates may well have placed "that contaminated petri dish" into cleaning solution since no one at that time placed any value on contaminated cultures. But Fleming had perception and enough insight to realize that a new phenomena had been discovered. Further anaysis and subsequent scientific method verification gave the world penicillin. The same thought goes for the perceptive person who did not throw away the rubber mixture contaminated by a sulfur spill....

These perceptive discoveries were all validated by reproducible test results using scientific method procedure. But what if the phenomena did not reproduce? The perceptive scientist would review his observations, dutifully logged into the company research notebook, and try to understand the anomaly from the vast amount of scientific knowledge available. Then, just before he totally discards the phenomena, he could submit the information to some engineering forum to see if some insight could be gained from the hue and cry generated from the website members. Just kidding, guys, some insight has been gained from our association...

Sacred cows in science are important, but even the scientific method dictates that all sacred cows are subject to critique in light of new physical discoveries... Some, like the conservation of momentum, are well entrenched into our comfort zone, but expansion of system dimensions might reveal anomalies that should be further pursued by the scientific method...
