    Is the World Flat? The Flatlander's theory..

    "A Sealion is a person who, when confronted with a fact that they don't care to acknowledge, will ask endlessly for "proof" and insist that it is the other person's job to stop everything they are doing and address the issue to their satisfaction. Sealioning is not predicated upon any implicit...

    Anyone know if acupuncture works for nerve pain?

    As I said, you are free to have your prerogative. I happen to be of the opinion that anyone who is sick or in pain has the right to try whatever treatments they want. I just also think that they have the right to informed consent. Acupuncture carries risks, and patients should have a fair...

    Anyone know if acupuncture works for nerve pain?

    Your post amounts to nothing more than you saying "lol, nu huh!" You've offered no real evidence or cogent argumentation, you've simply made assertions. You seem to not realize that most of the developed world has socialized healthcare. That means the government pays for it. These...

    Anyone know if acupuncture works for nerve pain?

    Nope, I haven't had it. I'm glad you found relief, and if the question were "did you improve after receiving acupuncture" that would be fine. The question, however, is does it work? There is no treatment, no matter how implausible or baseless, for which we would not expect some of the people...

    Anyone know if acupuncture works for nerve pain?

    "Big pharma" isn't into the habit of testing the same medical intervention 3000+ times. The studies were actually done by a wide range of medical research establishments, including the National Center for Complementary and Alternative Medicine, and the vast majority involve trained...

    Newbie Dwc Problems !!!

    Yes, that will work. Preferably start with 2 gallons of distilled water. The hydroguard plus EWC will make a good tea, but if you can find a product with tricoderma fungi it will be even better. While your waiting for it to brew, rinse as much gunk off your roots as you can. Don't be afraid...

    Newbie Dwc Problems !!!

    My advice was to get some microbes in there and get the temps down, not to let it set for a week and get worse. The course of action is the same IMO. Take those plants in the shower, rinse off as much gunk as possible, and get some tea in it. Stop using roots excel and anything else that is...

    Newbie Dwc Problems !!!

    Air temps at the ground are normally about 5 degrees cooler than at the top of the room. Place your pumps at the coolest spot possible. Just make sure to add check valves to the airline (I hate these because they restrict airflow) or run your lines so that they go above the water level of your...

    Newbie Dwc Problems !!!

    Signs of root rot in DWC are mushy, smelly roots that stop growing. What I see is a few patches of discolored roots with new healthy root growth all around. If it were me I would treat with a microbe tea. I wouldn't even sterilize first. Stop adding roots excel to the res. Use it plus the...

    Newbie Dwc Problems !!!

    Roots excel sometimes causes a little goop in the roots. It's not really anything to worry about. As long as you see new root growth, particularly the tips, and there is no bad smell, you'll be fine. From what I see in the pics, I wouldn't worry. I would treat it with some beneficials and...

    DWC Root Slime Cure aka How to Breed Beneficial Microbes

    Don't waste money on fraudulent products. Advanced Nutrients microbe products contain nothing they promise. Spend your money on EWC or soil amendments like ancient forest, or buy powder straight from the lab, like http://www.fungi.com/product-detail/product/mycogrow-soluble-1-oz.html...

    55 days or less strains that are still decent.

    Crit #47 from Positronics. Strong smell, fat buds, and hits like a hammer. Mine finishes in 53 days. .

    Is the World Flat? The Flatlander's theory..

    The animals example is actually meant to be a control. The point intended was that on an average night watching an average program we are likely to hear a noise and suspect the most likely culprit. This, of course, depends on where you live. Animals may not be likely if you live in a big...

    This is getting a bit ridiculous. You and I have had enough exchanges in the past, including disagreements, that I think I deserve the benefit of the doubt. I assume that Annie is c2g, and as I explained to her, as far as I knew, I was awaiting a reply. Perhaps I am missing something. In...

    I do not doubt your sincerity. You can search youtube for examples of the many iterations of the Wason selection task. Although I chose a slightly different rule, I think you'll see they all operate the same. I'm curious if you have a problem with just my version, or all versions. Perhaps...

    Is the World Flat? The Flatlander's theory..

    Yes, this is sometimes referred to as the luck bias. Good Job. The more proper name is optimism bias. Where the availability heuristic can cause us to miscalculate the probability of an event/outcome, optimism bias happens when we understand the odds favor a negative outcome, but think we'll...
