To say there is no evidence when there is a clear video of magnets sticking to head does not make much sense.
There are also videos of free energy magnetic machines in actual operation, powering devices with no energy input. They look great! It looks to all
the world like the energy problems are all solved, if only someone would buy this poor man's invention.
Pan the camera away and you'll see the other magnets connected to a wheel or something that is making it work... with plenty of energy input. It's a
hoax. Period. When I was younger I actually built a few of these "zero-point" energy machines just to prove to myself once and for all they don't
work.
Why do people do it? The same reason they make weird videos of other things... people think it's fun to trick others.
I can make a magnet stick to my skin anywhere I want it to, whenever I want it to. All I have to do is take a glue stick and rub it across the magnet
before I turn on the camera. Voila! It sticks! Look world, I must be Magneto! And before you ask, no, I'm not going to waste my time doing such a
video to "disprove" anyone. Experience has taught me that those who do not already look at things with a skeptical eye will demand I spend hours on
each one of them individually, as though that's all I have time for. Nope, not gonna do it. I'll post here and explain when I have time, but other
than that? I get paid for building prototypes; I only do it for free when it's something
I want.
I don't see the high court even wasting their time with her if she had no evidence.
That all depends.
Something you need to understand: scientists are people. They get up every morning, shower naked, gripe about having to get up, drive into work
dealing with traffic, argue with co-workers, get intimidated by bosses, lose their temper, get confused at times... just like any other human on the
planet. Many of them are also dealing with psychological issues... there is a fine line between idiot savant and genius, and kids can be cruel growing
up. The kid who is athletic and good-looking gets all the breaks and has all the friends; the kid who has the mind of a scientist and reads constantly
is an outcast with almost no one to talk to. Trust me; I have lived that. I made sure that, should someone see me walking down the street, there is
nothing...
nothing to indicate what I do. Saves on bruises.
Judges are people. They get up every morning, shower naked, gripe about having to get up, drive into work dealing with traffic, argue with co-workers,
get intimidated by politicians, lose their temper, get confused at times... just like any other human on the planet. In many ways, a judge is the
least expert person on the planet in anything except law. They spend their days listening to such varied cases there is never time to look any deeper
than legalities. Why do you think there are expert witnesses to let a judge understand, at least for the moment, the actual science? Hell, do you
realize what a professional expert witness makes?
I don't know this Dr. Katherine Horton. Never heard of her. She has a PhD? OK, cool... I could, too, if I had wanted to push that hard. What field is
it in? What work has she done to justify that PhD? Just having the title "Dr." in front of one's name just means one has done exhaustive study on a
subject. Might be Underwater Basket Weaving; might not; probably isn't.
What I do know is this: no one is giving a reasonable explanation for any mechanism that could cause a magnet to stick to a person's skin through
magnetic attraction. No one. Every "theory" that I have heard advanced can be disproven easily using experimentation that has already been done by
others for decades or longer. If you want to prove to me that a magnet sticks to your skin using magnetic attraction, the solution is simple: get a
doctor to examine you wherever you say the magnet sticks for anomalies that could explain it. I'm certain if you carry a magnet to a doctor and stick
it to your body, they will have some interest in finding out why... if for no other reason than that could be a death sentence for a patient having an
MRI.
Post the report here. I would hope I have proven to you that I understand and will consider any scientific information you provide.
