That's very silly. CS is a physical substance, and there are known methods which
are quite precise.

An EC meter reveals *conductivity*; only proper chemical analysis can
reveal *what* we are measuring the conductivity of.
Come on now, this is really elementary stuff.
Either we have data, or we have anecdotal evidence, but we do not *call*
anecdotal evidence "data" if we wish to be honest.
Look, too many people are taking what I said the wrong way.
It may be "proof enough for you", but it isn't actual *proof*.
Just as I am satisfied that CS is curing me from MRSA, but if I write a
medical paper about that and submit it to the medical journals I'll be
laughed at because I have no actual *proof*.
Let's face facts here: if we are not objective enough to recognize the
difference
between data and anecdotal evidence, then we are just crackpots, and the
crackpots issuing absolute statements are the whole reason I waited over a
year from the time I first heard of CS until I started using it. I feel
personally harmed by that kind of thing, and it is certainly more than
conceivable that many people are harmed in this way.
Therefore I implore you all, let's be reasonable and honest and let's learn
to recognize the difference between hard data and anecdotal evidence.
Otherwise, we risk doing suffering humanity a disservice.
Wouldn't it be so much nicer (and useful) if, when I'd first read about CS,
I'd come away thinking "Well, those people have no real data, but they
certainly seem sincere -- maybe they're on to something"?
But no, I was left thinking, "what a bunch of loonies!", because of all the
absolute statements and unsubstantiable claims presented as "data".
I had to get really, desperately, on-my-last-legs ill before I tried it, and
even then I probably wouldn't have except a friend whom I'd discussed it
with bought it for me. Now I'm a believer, but I *still* do not know what I do
not know, and I recognize that. That is important! Please -- do not be one of
the
crrazies responsible for driving reasonable people who are suffering away
from CS. Many suffer, and they need the benefit of our experience. But they
will not get that if our experience comes wrapped in hyperbolic, fantastical,
stories purporting to be "facts".
If we could all be a little more Joe Friday ("just the facts, Ma'm") we
could do much more good in the world.
If I've offended you, I apologize, but as you may have figured out by now the
principles at stake here are rather dear to my heart. I want to contribute,
not just muddy the (already quite unclear) waters.
Okay, now: I'm stepping away from the soap box, and will not speak on this
further
unless replied to directly. Only you can decide what's important to you.
Sincerely,
indi
