Oh, good grief. I did an experiment, offered you the results, and you pounce on my conclusion with an oblique adhom. Never mind the data I collected. Attack the fact that I concluded something without explaining WHY you feel that way. Poor form, at best.
Ok, where's the data? All I have is your say so that you even did this, let alone that you got the results you did. I don't know you or your friends, why should I believe any of you? Your "data" is anecdotal at best and proves nothing. They could have been feeling a static charge, the air disturbance from you moving it in thier direction, some kind of "tell" you weren't even aware you were doing.
As for "why" I feel this way, I spent over a decade living with a Wiccan who was constantly making me "feel the tingle" coming from all kinds of crap. She could always feel it, even though I couldn't. She also felt it coming from a plastic army man I swapped for a crystal one time. I never saw her produce a result, either. Not to mention that the orgone blaster is a device designed to counter the effects of something that doesn't even exist.
In refernce to the "ad hom" attack, it may be ad hom, but it's also true. "You're just not sensitive" is the standard BS line from believers in foolishness like this. Can't feel the tingle? You're not sensitive. Can't hear the ghost? You're not sensitive. Can't sense the aliens in the room? You're not sensitive. Talk about ad hom! Anyone who doesn't agree just isn't as sensitive as you? What's the basis for this? You don't know me any more than I know you, so how can you have any clue as to my sensitivity levels? Or is that that info supplied by your sensitivity?
No, the orgone blaster is just more new age drivel produced by charlatans and distributed to the gullible. However, if it makes you happy to believe it works, who am I to "harsh your mellow", as it were? Use it. Enjoy it. Point it at your friends (with or without the "pew,pew,pew" noises). If nothing else, it sounds like a fun little party game. We'll both be happy living in our respective realities, you blasting orgones and me laughing.
Sounds like a win-win to me.
The Food and Drug Administration not only declared that there is no such thing as orgone energy, they had some of Reich's books burned—a sure-fire way to ignite interest in somebody.

No, I haven't made one. Nor will I. I have much better ways to waste my time, thank you.
I don't believe I can leap from a bridge and fly to the moon, yet I haven't tried that one, either.
Although I might yet if things keep going like they are...

interesting how your source can't deny that the FDA ordered/had a hand in books being burned
which is how "science" is supposed to work.

Dude.....it's the flipping FDA!! Not the FBI, not the CIA, not the NSA!! Need some perspective.
Wilhelm Reich was selling a worthless quack product to gullible people.....one source there mentioned monthly rental rates for this contraption of $250 a month!!! Do you know how much money that was, back in the early 1950s???
The jurisdiction of the FDA covered this, as he was promoting it as a "medical" device. No "black coated" agents, no "government censorship".....it was the government doing its job of protecting consumers from being taken for a ride, and having their money stolen by false promises.....AND, he was indirectly potentially causing harm to people who DID have serious illnesses, like cancer, by telling them he could "cure" them....thus, they would perhaps not seek proper medical attention....
That same FDA that brought us this? : farmwars.info... Yeah. Nothing to be afraid of, I'm sure.

You tell me why you think I am motivated to lie. That's beside the point. I showed a very simple thing to construct, so it is reasonable to conclude I probably did construct the object. The experiment was simple to do, so it's a pretty good bet that the effort to do it was minimal, and I guess I should have gone into more detail.
Subject is sitting in chair, blindfolded. I hold the shooter and approach their hands with it, which are together on their laps. The shooter is either pointed towards me or towards them. I wait about 10 seconds. If they give no comment, I conclude they have felt nothing, since the instructions, of course, say to speak up if they do.
If they say something, I conclude they felt something - could be static. Could be air. I try to control for these with the phrase, "unusual sensations," but that is subjective enough that I have to conclude that subjects may just think it's unusual.
I back away and move around briefly to disguise any movement rotating the shooter and then approach again. The shooter may or may not have been rotated. This eliminates, over successive trials (ten "passes" for each friend), any likelihood of comments like, "Oh, WOW! I feel THAT," coming from someone just feeling static or air. Which I heard.
Now, you ask, "why should I believe any of you?" No reason. You choose what you believe in. But here I have presented a way of verifying my data that is not expensive and not greatly time-consuming. If you choose to, you have all you need except materials and perhaps the will to check it out for yourself.
I'm not going to defend chemtrails.
What might a blind One believe if never having heard of a rainbow, one day anOther described one? Point is, if you lack a sensitivity, you are "blind."
The army man incident? I could think of things that might explain this based on the very intimate connection this energy has with the "life force," which is Consciousness and a latent talent for using expectations to manipulate it...
(There's more, but I've probably lost you by now.)
Anyway, I'm sorry you were not happy in that relationship and hope you find someone suited better (if you have not yet done so).
... but of the presence of an energy we can manipulate to positive end results and positive sum energy, I am certain.
Again, I am not defending this devise. I am defending Reich and Orgone.
Not that I care if you do, but you might want to consider my experiment - instructions on building a shooter are on the first page in this thread.
Check other people. See what results you get. Or just laugh. Your prerogative.

Sorry, I can't give evidence on the non-existant.
I guess I'm just a closed-minded knob...

the museums once had displays on piltdown man which turned out to be a hoax
consensus science once had it that the earth was flat
science is just an old word for knowledge and the world is full of people who "know" things that just ain't so.
your point being?
since we are all so imperfect, and by extension incabable of arriving at "The Truth" what is the validity of your arguments?
