I know, wifi causes high blood sugar level. How do I know you ask? Over a decade in IT near 2.4GHz radiation and as a result high sugar levels. There scientific conclusion LOL)))

A proper scientific experiment, conducted to test a hypothesis and yield results from which you can draw a sound conclusion, is completely different from just growing plants or farming (or inventing the wheel). I don't think you understand the concept of a scientific experiment, despite having it explained to you over and over. I'm very familiar with how to grow plants, and already have some growing in my apartment - the problem with doing this experiment properly is being able to control all of the variables except the one you are testing (in this case, proximity to Wi-Fi). I could replicate, to the best of my abilities, exactly what these 9th-graders did, but what you're missing is that it wouldn't constitute proof that Wi-Fi is dangerous or stunts plant growth.
If I came back after two weeks and showed you a single picture of a sparsely-covered plate of unhealthy-looking cress sprouts marked "away from Wi-Fi" and a densely-covered plate of healthy-looking cress sprouts marked "near Wi-Fi," would my "proof" convince you that Wi-Fi is not, in fact, dangerous, or that it even helps plants grow? It shouldn't...nor should the original experiment convince you that Wi-Fi is dangerous.
The world does have people like me. They are called scientists. You may not have noticed, but nowhere did I assert that I believe Wi-Fi is or is not ultimately dangerous or that it causes cancer in humans. You're acting like I have vehemently denied this point, supposedly to protect my (nonexistent) cronies who control the evil global Wi-Fi industry or something. I merely brought up the serious flaws that exist in the 9th-graders' experiment and pointed out that, because of these flaws, you cannot take their results as "proof" of anything. You can use their experiment as a starting point for further research, and I have no objection to doing so. I would very much like to see the results of a properly-conducted experiment that measures the effect of proximity to Wi-Fi on the growth of cress sprouts. Do you want to fund it?
I do live in, and love, the real world. It seems that you are the one living in a fantasy world, as you have - without knowing any personal information about me - concocted a ludicrously off-base story about me being some sort of evil corporate shill who has a stake in "industry profits," "rub[s] shoulders with billionaires," believes themselves to be "magically invincible" to cancer, has "greedy corporate pals," is just like a James Bond villain's henchman, etc.
By the way, if you really are just trolling here (a possibility I'm still holding out hope of), congratulations - you've been very convincing.edit on 12/16/2013 by opopanax because: Grammar

Have you heard of THE LHC?
it collide particles together and discovered the god particle.
do you think they discovered the god particle on the first try.
no
they ran it thousands of times and after analysis of same said god particle exists with 95% certainty blsh,blah.
no in the case of plants its not rocket science requiring billiions.its just some crummy seeds.
which need to be grown by large numbers either next to a router or not next to a router with other factors minimized.

The LHC is one of the most controlled experiments in existence.
And they ran it thousands of times with - no success finding ANY god particle.
It took SERIOUS CONTROLS to make it successful. The LHC, may I say, is probably the MOST CONTROLLED experiment ever conducted by man!
Now maybe a pile of crummy seeds doesn't need the SERIOUS CONTROLS necessary to grow, or otherwise NONE OF US would even know a cress plant exists. We would have to spend billions, and grow billions of seeds, before we would have discovered the FIRST CRESS PLANT. But, some controls are necessary (amount of light, water, temperature, wind, etc.) or the results are essentially meaningless
Thats the point he is making that you are not getting.
Opapanex is trying the experiment, with the same parameters (barely none) and with two additional controls (three plates non-exposed to one exposed). You should be HAPPY.
But if he comes back in a month and reports that the wi-fi plants are alive and one plate of control is dead, please don't discredit yourself AGAIN by calling him a shill.
Thats the point I am making that you are not getting - repeatedly. And I have conducted MY experiment many times, with almost the exact same results, right down to the false citation about prescription deaths! Always called a shill, accused of hob-nobbing with the drug industry, making wild analogies with absolutely no grain of research, and other such crap.
FYI (and OFF-TOPIC - make a new thread to discuss) most sources state 100,000 deaths to adverse prescription drug reactions!!!! If you are gonna attack do YOUR research and get the numbers RIGHT, as this shows you are really not interested in the TRUTH but only a 'position'. HERE is a crappy discredited source you can parrot for that new number. You can update your signature with that new figure if you wish - please credit me thanks.
In MY experiment, I have also observed the controls (other posters) many times, and the results are always the SAME (these results are recorded in the OP previous postings if anyone wants to review the results of my experimentation). If people disagree with a premise you post, they are forever labeled a shill.
Since that was the desired result of MY experiment, and I have proven it is measurable (shill to the pharma industry, 24000 prescription drug deaths, etc.) and repeatable (she always says the same things to attack) my experiment is deemed a success. Anyone can repeat it as they wish, its good for laughs as it always works.

you simply the swap the rooms the router is in.this cancels other variables.
quite simple.
beckybecky
also you don't seem to understand different models of routers have different outputs.you can even set the power output from the control panel of the router.mine has low, medium and high.
beckybecky
you seem to dismiss 100000 deaths with a wave of your hand.would you care a little more if one of them was related to you?
or do you only care so much about money money money and protecting big pharma profits?
you do realize you cannot take the money with you when you die?
also you con only live in 1 house,swim in 1 swimming pool and drive 1 porche at a time.
look at that tom walker from the fast & furious.50 million in the bank yet a Porsche killed him because he though his money and fame made him invincible.

Worse, it's really hard to tell if the router is actually sending much in the way of traffic. If it's not belting out packets to an endpoint, you don't know the transmission duty cycle. You'd have to generate a known traffic rate as well as choose an output level. It's not transmitting all the time.

There are beacons transmitted, broadcasting SSID but if there are no authentications and other traffic occurring, there's not a whole lot of energy being emitted.
