View Full Version : Woo of the Week
Rolfe
24th November 2005, 06:34 AM
Have you seen the rest of the post he snipped it from (it's not actually on the page Kumar linked to, BTW; it's on page 2 of the thread)? That looks like this week's "Woo of the Week" winner right there.This nomination from Mojo of a post quoted by Kumar is such a worthy contender that I believe it merits its own thread. The full post is here. http://www.otherhealth.com/showthread.php?postid=65170#post65170 (strange forum structure makes it very difficult to follow the threads I'm afraid).Research and experimentation led to a significant discovery about the nature of matter, and its relation to electromagnetic fields. This discovery, which is called Potential Mass Theory, is essential to the understanding and accurate measurement of electromagnetic fields, and thus all paranormal phenomena.According to the Einstein equation, E mC all manifested (physical) matter is composed of; and animated by, a large electrical field of energy, measured in units called Joules. Conversely, every measurable field of electromagnetic energy is capable of manifesting as a certain amount of mass, m, as determined by the Einstein equation.The reality of manifestation, however, is that some energies remain electromagnetic, and do not manifest as mass, and some energies that do manifest retain large amounts of uninanifested energy as mental or life force energy. Thus, inherent in electromagnetic field energy is a potential to manifest as physical matter, or mass. In other words, all that exists in the Universe must be either physical or metaphysical (manifest or non-manifest). Potential Mass Theory states that if an object or entity does not have actual mass, it must have the potential to manifest as mass, or to have effect upon mass through the quantum particles. Electromagnetic energy that is not manifest cannot have physical mass, and thus can only have Potential Mass, by definition. Experiments and research have shown that such electromagnetic fields can be measured by radio-field voltage, using a sensitive digital voltmeter connected to a sensitive multifrequency antenna. Placing the antenna in the location of a subtle energy field or metaphysical object will cause the voltmeter to record the precise voltage contained in the electromagnetic field. This voltage reading is very important, because we may use it to calculate much useful information about the nature of the metaphysical body in question.And there's lots more where that came from. We have to bear in mind, however, that it has been pointed out that this is a poster who boasts of drinking his own urine every day.

It fits in nicely with her (?) first post on otherhealth in the Chi Kung topic:
"Physics and maths are my weakest subjects at school and college but I have a great interest in sympathetic vibratory physics."
Wow, that papimi page that Lew (cellsalts) links to is quite something, although almost unreadable what with the different sizes of fonts. Pappas thinks the sodium potassium pump idea is all wrong; what really happens is that the sodium goes into the cell and transmutes into potassium in a cold nuclear reaction. Well, now it's all clear to me.

Interestingly, my Kumarese-English translator comes up with this translation in English:
Scientist-types have an idea about matter and energy, called Potential Mass Theory (PMT). This is important for everything, according to Einstein, because energy is mass etc. Actually, not all energy is mass. Everything is either physical or not-physical and PMT says that any energy could become mass, so everything is either mass or “potential mass”. It is possible to measure electromagnetic fields quite accurately, which is quite important.
Although not actually stated, it looks like this is going to lead to some apparently exciting measurements of "potential mass" (otherwise known as magnetic fields). An interesting theory, which seems to just replace the word "energy" with "potential mass". Wow.

..Therefore, all forces can be defined by their effect; that is, by the change of movement they induce on point-like systems.
Properties of force
Because momentum is a vector, then force, being its time derivative, is also a vector - it has magnitude and direction.
Forces can be added together using the parallelogram of force. When two forces act on an object, the resulting force, the resultant, is the vector sum of the original forces. This is called the principle of superposition. The magnitude of the resultant varies from zero to the sum of the magnitudes of the two forces, depending on the angle between their lines of action. If the two forces are equal, but opposite, the resultant is zero. This condition is called static equilibrium, with the result that the object remains at rest or moves with a constant velocity.
As well as being added, forces can be can also be broken down (or 'resolved'). For example, a horizontal force pointing northeast can be split into two forces, one pointing north, and one pointing east. Summing these component forces using vector addition yields the original force. Force vectors can also be three-dimensional, with the third (vertical) component at right-angles to the two horizontal components.

Bad Kumar. Quit playing stupid.
Each of your sentences should have one meaning. Write for clarity. Violate this only when you have mastered it, and then only when approriate.
In all of your writing, find the single English word that best describes your concept and use it. Do not use chains of words that you appear to believe will serve the same purpose. Do not replace slashes with commas, or commas with something else, in attempts to trick us.
Wouldn't you like to be more than a pathetic joke to the people on this forum?
If you want to share your ideas, you're going to have to do the work needed to communicate them clearly and coherently. You're also going to have to try to write in a manner that invites reading and consideration.
As it is, your messages aren't worth the effort of reading, let along thinking about.

Prevailing Modern Atmosphere. It means "WAAAAAH YOU KEEP ASKING ME FOR EVIDENCE WHEN I HAVE NONE! NOT FAIR! LET MY SUPERSTITIONS ALONE!"
I am guilty of engaging with Kumar in the past. Originally I thought I was dealing with someone who genuinely wanted to learn, but I have come to see that, whether he can't or won't, he is certainly not going to listen and learn.
I have also found some entertainment in reacting to his posts, but I have passed that stage now and just find them a nuisance. I can't be bothered to dissect them any more to get to an underlying message. Also his tendency to clog up every thread with his drivel is irritating- either by design or accident. His recent discovery of badscience.net is also to be regretted especially because the format of the threads there do not allow you to ignore lengthy and stupid posts as well as the JREF vBulletin style.
I used to think it would be a shame if he went away, now I wish he would.
The one remaining plus point is that threads in which he takes part do seem to generate traffic, which serves to keep discussion going on around him when the forum might otherwise get too quiet to keep up a critical mass of active participants. This post is itself and example of that effect. I expect Kumar is really Randi just trying to keep up his page-impression count so his masters in the BigPharmaPseudoSceptic World Conspiracy remain happy and don't beam him back up to their mother-ship.

One can only hope. The plot has gotten stale, we need a nice twist to boost the ratings.
As I was just saying, I think Kumar has long since jumped the shark. (http://www.jumptheshark.com/)

Yes, thinking about helping by natural/ non adverse means, even when no other choice may be there, is a big idoicy on my part. Thinking about preserving current imbalances/excess & opposing PMA, can be a sin and so a big idiocy on my part. Finding, PMA adding to cancer, modern type of diseases etc. so our Karma's effect, is a idiocy on my part....
But It is in society'sPMA angle not in nature's/god's angle. Punishment/nailing for real good here but reward can be there.
Just continue, maintain & add to PMAs or current excesses or nature's imbalances. You are intellegent, I am an big idiot.:D :D :D
Poor guy. He started an insult, and I pointed it back at him. Now he seems to be upset at the nasty tone in here.

Poor guys. May become guilty of restraing one to help someone, who needed badly. Desire to harm/kill/oppose nature, stub-bornness, non-flrxibilities, self interests, egoistic superiority...may result poor, cheap thoughts, idiocies, game playing in hospitals, radiculing healers....etc. so may add sin. Joining hand with such emotions may result into deviations and sin.

Kumar, people have been trying to help you on this forum, by trying to explain basic science to you, since the day you arrived here. The trouble is, that doesn't seem to be the sort of help you want, as you have persistently ignored all the information and advice that has been offered. You just seem to want people to agree with your crackpot ideas.
Don't expect people here to tell you that you're right when you're wrong.

How do you think you might obtain a more friendly and helpful response?

Fair enough.
Kumar, do you have something useful to say and are you prepared to learn from the answers you have been given?

Thanks for the reminder, Darat. I'll tread more courteously.
My apologies to the forum for having let Kumar get to me. I have avoided participating in a forum until last week because I knew that doing so was likely to irritate me. I'm in someone else's home and I need to rise to the level of conduct that they require.
Kumar, you are a human being and deserve to be treated like one. Since I have lost all patience with you and do not anticipate gaining anything from continued discussion, my best course is not to engage you in discussion or to refer to you. Have a good life.
To the rest of the forum - it is good to be alive, to be a skeptic, and to have a sense of humor in challenging times.

Rolfe says the Ignore button is your friend, but I think it makes Kumired threads even worse because they become disjointed.
Heck, I've offered "Kumar" a chance at redemption, let's see if he takes it. I'm not offering very good odds though.
So, it's still over to you Kumar to say something sensible.

We have been asked to attack the argument, not the person. Fair enough and certainly a good idea but ....
Just exactly WHAT is the argument here? Very difficult to attack it, or even agree with it, if it is incomprehensible.
Kumar, the stuff above really does look like you opened a dictionary, selected a whole bunch of words at random and posted them here.
Perhaps you could begin by posting just ONE sentence. Concentrate on making it relevant and comprehensible. We can go from there.

Kumar? Bah humbug!
I nominate LAL (and now also Huntster) as the "Woo of the Week" for her steadfast defense of Bigfoot as being a real creature right here in our American forests. If you haven't seen the Bigfoot threads running since early summer 2005, take a look at the various threads in the General Skepticism and Paranormal forum. Don't miss the Patterson-Gimlin Film threads.
This is wooism at its best (or worst).

You know, I was wondering why I've been so poor the past couple months. At first I thought it was because I'm a poor grad student who shelled out all his money for TAM4.
Now I know the truth. Apparently I'd blacked out a month ago and totally forgotten about it. Darat!

I tried taking an interest in sympathetic vibratory physics at school but I kept getting slapped.

This week's woo is surely Julio Iglesias (or whatever the last name was) and his pal Vitor should've-been-Zammit-but-it's-not. They're taking lying in the name of woo up to a new level of lowly slime. :D

Anyway, start reading at about post 500 or something in this thread (http://forums.randi.org/showthread.php?t=45357). It should give you a hint of what's going on.
