This is one of the most funny things I've read of late: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sciencetech/article-2507377/Humans-NOT-come-Earth--sunburn-bad-backs-pain-labour-prove-expert-claims.html quote:Humans do NOT come from Earth – and sunburn, bad backs and pain during labour prove it, expert claims I mean, it can't be that evolution isn't perfect, and that we're the first 100% bipedal mammal specials on the planet. No, it's because we're not of Earth origin, and the "humans are naturally aggressive" part of what sounds like this is a new-agey alien thing. (And the fact our DNA very closely matches other species on the planet that points to us being Terran, especially our genetic similarities to primates)

Well, technically, if you're including the pilots, and you're using average samples for each, the death toll would probably be quite similar. If you're going to select for airline pilots in the human sample, you obviously need to do the same for the chimps.

I think the point is that we can survive being cooped up in a box with strangers for hours without killing any of them, contradicting the "humans are naturally aggressive" thing.

I have to admit I've heard the exact same arguments about humans not being native to Earth many, many times with much the same points raised. This was mostly at parties by people who were as high as gently caress at the time though, so I tend to take them with a grain of salt.

I remember reading about NOI and thinking it sounded like Scientology for black people or something. When I related this to someone later, I checked the Wikipedia page and learned that Louis Farrakhan is actually trying to convince everyone in the Nation of Islam to read Dianetics.

Colloidal Silver is a pretty common thing among conspiracy theorists, right? I was a judge at a science fair this week and there was a presentation on colloidal silver as a potential agent for killing E Coli cultures. The whole thing was fine and all, although the procedures were literally printed off of a website so they got almost no points on creativity and their presentation wasn't great. I gave them a low score overall, but they got a pretty good average score from other judges, which pushed them into the top 15 (out of maybe 70 projects). The top 8-10 teams (depending on team size) get to go to the state finals, with the trip paid for by the state's department of education. At these science fair events it's typical for judges to look at the average scores and discuss whether the team rankings look right, since judging is pretty subjective. Overall things looked good to the group, but one of the judges was adamant that the colloidal silver presentation be pushed into the top 10 "because this is extremely important research and the student really needs to present this at the state finals." Ranks 8-10 all have an average score that's close to ranks 11-15, so there are certainly grounds for discussion here. Some discussion is had, and it's clear that most of the judges were fairly unimpressed. So a request is made for the scores. On a 100 point scale, with 10 judges independently scoring the presentations, 6 scores were in the low 50s, 2 was in the mid 80s to low 90s, and 2 were perfect scores. Upon this reveal, the judge pushing for this presentation to be bumped up started ranting about a conspiracy among the judges to discredit colloidal silver as a legitimate medical therapy and the importance of bringing this presentation to the state finals "so that the entire world can finally be shown the truth". Another judge requested that the score sheets for this category be pulled, at which point the judge who was extremely excited about the colloidal silver presentation stopped talking. It turned out that two of the answer sheets in this category were identical, and the scores being given were complete bullshit: 100 points to the colloidal silver presentation, 100 points to a presentation about GMOs, 0-40 points to everything else. By that point, nothing more needed to be said. These two sheets were thrown out, the rankings were recomputed, and the colloidal silver presentation ended up somewhere in the bottom 50.

Before that it was crystals and harmonics. After came magnets, dimensions and, of course, quantum. We've come so far  I wonder if there's an interocitor hiding inside the great pyramid.  Firefox recognises interocitor as a word now. Just FYI.

Colloidal silver was used in the 1800s for a while, before better antibiotics came our, right?My understanding is Colloidal Silver does affect bacteria DNA as described, but has some nasty side effects beyond just the Blue Skin crap. And with all the current state of medicine there's no point in using it. That does also remind me - which I swear is earlier in the thread - of people believing that the "blue skin" is actually humanity's "natural skin color".

Silver has antibiotic properties but it also has anti-most-forms-of-life properties, so its use as an antibiotic is rather limited, it's about as good for you as drinking water with lots of lead flakes in it in the hopes that the bacteria get lead poisoning before you do.

Here's a new one: CERN intends to turn the LHC on again this March with higher energy collisions than ever before, but instead of looking for new physics they're actually trying to open a portal to Hell so that Lucifer may come to Earth and consume our soulsquote:Freedom Fighter 2127 says, ‘ They have officially marked this year as the year of light… which means the year of Lucifer. So we need to understand just how demonic this year is going to be.’ quote:‘Is it just a coincidence that CERN is short for the horned God Cernunnos? Is it also a coincidence that CERN has to go deep underground to do their “god” harnessing experiments? Cernunnos was the god of the underworld.’ quote:‘The authorities at CERN have done their ritualistic experiments in the underworld and has used unlimited power to turn against the earth. This power has shown that it is causing an increase in earthquake activity and some even claim that it may be the reason for an increase of UFO activity as well.’

The first time I saw that video, it was presented without any fanfare in one of the youtube threads and, yes, I thought it was fake as hell. The plane just falls out of the sky, slow as all hell, and without any fanfare. No flames, no smoke, no contrails, no sound. Just this massive object falling in a way that seems impossible. Then it hit the van and you realise, oh poo poo, it was real. And it really does look fake because Hollywood has spent decades making things 'more real than real' and these are the sort of events we simply don't have any experience in judging. Laypeople are simply incapable of knowing what an incident like this should look like, no matter how well versed in the subject they might pretend to be on the internet. I remember when collision physics in games first started and everyone went on about how they looked fake as hell. Now you can find car accident dash cams footage on youtube by the thousands and, it turns out, people really do ragdoll like a toy when struck by a car.

Is colloidal silver also poisonous to cats? I know that's a weird question, but I was looking at pictures of adorable kittens and they give you a care package with each newly purchased kitten that includes a jar of colloidal silver. And I think I already know the answer

http://microbewiki.kenyon.edu/index.php/Silver_as_an_Antimicrobial_Agent Silver is a great antimicrobial with relatively low toxicity and has plenty of legitimate historical uses. In terms of modern use, though, topical use seems to be the only one really worth considering. Colloidal silver was a healthy thing to drink/add to your water because it increased the potability of water. Modern water treatment works better* and is substantially cheaper. * Slight increase in cancer is a fine trade for actually eliminating most of the baddies in drinking water.

Yup, we have it at the vet clinic in a topical cream (silver sulfadiazine), but hardly ever prescribe it. It worked wonders for the greyhound who lost all the skin on the outside of his ear, though  .
