I don't think this is proof of "Life Force"!

Funny as hell to look at though. ;)

That was a cool movie. The naked chick was all-too-necessary.

Funny she never made it big after that.

"Life Force"... is that like an aura because I'm not buyin' it.

Sharks can detect the natural electrical currents in living organsisms. Maybe this product can do something similar. But it still does not warrent the product to be named a "Life-Force Detector".

Still, not much work is involved in distinguishing the differences between a living organism or a non-living organism... I mean really, they taught that in college... dont you remember the "Is this an animal or rock" course.

:rolleyes: Yawn! The usual techno-mumble. Yes, the human body, being a big chunk of conductive material, can influence electromagnetic fields around it. Possibly, this device is active, that is, it generates its own EM field (although they claim the opposite), which is then influenced by whatever you place in contact with it or even near it. I could build such a device anytime :rolleyes:

What clinched it for me was when they showed that organically grow food has a higher life force than non-organic.

IMO, the main clinch is that they make an instrument that reacts in some way to the surroundings, then claim that it measures a hitherto undetected force. This is basic woo-woo'ism.

From what I can glean from the schreds if technical information, they have built an oscillator with a low stability and are allowing it to be strongly influenced by outside objects. Such a device will be susceptible to a number of known factors, like capacitance, inductance, noise sources, temperature. These factors are more than enough to account for any readings they get. On top of that, the instrument has several manual adjustments, all uncalibrated, but ranging over several orders of magnutide. This means that there is absolutely no way the readings can be used for anything at all. Not even measuring the known factors that influence them.

Such people are an insult to the technical and scientific community. They are either completely deluded or deliberate swindlers.
