"HLE" wrote in message ... Happy Dog, get out your checkbook! I just did a test and am ready to collect. I tried it 47 times, and was perfectly consistent. I think I could repeat this over and over, and get the same results forever. I've had sensitivity training (evident from my posts here), and to me, microwaved water seems warmer than non-microwaved water. I therefore extended the trial and can say with confidence that John was right. If you microwave the water till bubbles form, then pour it over the seeds, they WILL NOT SPROUT. Try it yourself, you'll see. LOL... Really loud. |

That means you have to give up meat, for safety, and grains because without cooking they don't digest in humans. Are you sure of the latter? I often eat raw oats. They seem just as filling as cooked. Yeah, but it is the undigested part that you notice in a day or two when it passes from your digestive system. -- Keith F.

: "john" wrote in message ... MICRO WAVING YOUR FOOD ISN'T SAFE When microwave ovens were first introduced, there was a wave of concern among consumers and in science. It took a decade of funded and independent research, and two decades of user experience, to prove conclusively that if a microwave oven is working properly (seals, interlocks, etc.) there is danger from such a time-saving appliance in only two instances. 1. If fingers get in the way of the closing door. 2. If it is swallowed and lodges in the throat. Hahahaha. 3. Radiation could leak if the door doesn't close completely (this can happen only if the door is damaged or blocked by a cloth or something). 4. Eggs, liver (nasty!!!!) or hot dogs can 'explode' from steam pressure. Usually this happens inside the oven (while the food is still being heated), but I heard that sometimes eggs can explode a few seconds after the oven has been turned off. If the door has been open then the explosion sprays hot 'egg mass' all over - it's real bad if it gets in your eyes. USE CAUTION TO AVOID THESE HAZARDS Otherwise, the microwave oven is quite safe. |

If fingers get in the way of the closing door. 2. If it is swallowed and lodges in the throat. They all leak as you can prove with a meter http://www.whale.to/w/microwave1.htm This web page just has a bunch of links to other articles. The articles include howlers like this one: The microwaves from the Sun are based on principles of pulsed direct current. BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!! 'Pulsed DC' is used *IN THE OVEN*: high voltage AC (stepped up from mains with a transformer) is rectified with a high voltage diode and filtered with a capacitor. There is no pulsed DC *IN THE SUN*!!!!!! What a dumbass!! These rays create no frictional heat in organic substance." That, by the way, is from Hertel, one of the "scientists" who did the test of the 8 volunteers that supposedly showed the awfulness of cooking with microwaves. -- David Wright :: alphabeta at prodigy.net These are my opinions only, but they're almost always correct.

I do not understand the motivation of people who construct and then publicly present such concepts, which have no basis in either observation/analysis of physical phenomena or objective measurement of events. It's all mental conjuring, from nothing, an exercise in imagination. They make no profit from it, gain nothing but ridicule, embarrassment. Not necessarily. Some people with no or minimal scientific knowledge easily 'gulp' that kind of crap. Why do they do it? What possible satisfaction is there? Jan is an example of such idiocy. Much of what she espouses can be laid off on others who she thinks have credentials and therefore authority, so her biggest crime in such cases is being a terrible parrot. But a pretty high percentage of her output is pure construction on her part, with nowhere to plant her feet. As she's about to touch the SEND button, she must know - somewhere deep inside - that she's about to get flayed alive. What motivates her to expose herself to such humiliation? Henry |

: "Happy Dog" wrote in message ... "john" wrote in If you want proof of this information, here's an experiment you can do at home. Plant seeds in two pots. Water one pot with water that has been micro waved, the other with regular tap. The seeds that received micro waved water won't sprout. If micro waved water can stop plants from growing, think of what micro waved food can do to your health! Bull****. There's a million dollar reward available to anyone who can distinguish pure water that's "microwaved" from that which isn't. Happy Dog, get out your checkbook! I just did a test and am ready to collect. I tried it 47 times, and was perfectly consistent. I think I could repeat this over and over, and get the same results forever. I've had sensitivity training (evident from my posts here), and to me, microwaved water seems warmer than non-microwaved water. You can easily fake the effect with a gas oven or a traditional electric oven I therefore extended the trial and can say with confidence that John was right. If you microwave the water till bubbles form, then pour it over the seeds, they WILL NOT SPROUT. Try it yourself, you'll see. Until now, o grinning canine, you had my respect. Henry |
