Hear hear! JD. Let's get some science into this. Yes, the human body is 55% or 60% water, whichever. BUT, We are not vessels half-full of pure water sloshing around inside of us! The "water" which comprises 55% of us, is tied up in complex compounds making up our tissues. When you pour table salt on your fries (not that I am sugesting you should), a percentage of each of the tiny grains of salt, is water: "water of crystalisation". But salt grains do not look or behave like water. Water itself is made up entirely of Oxygen and Hydrogen, but its properties are NOTHING LIKE the properties of its two constituent gasses. To suggest that human flesh must behave in the same manner as water in a vessel, because human flesh is part water molecules, is absurd. The 528Hz guy seems to suggest, moreover, that sound vibrations travel through the vacuum of space, to then impinge upon us. Many things travel through the vacuum of space to impinge upon us - notably constituents of the electromagnetic spectrum. But not acoustical sound energy, which is vibrations (compressions and rarefactions) in a medium, generally air. Ed Foote, you say "However, if you can offer proof that human physiology is impervious to vibrations, I am all ears". With respect, I don't think anyone is suggesting that the human body is impervious to vibrations. Indeed, sound energy can be used to break up kidney stones, in the medical process called lithotrypsy. And I have heard it said that very low pipe organ notes can make persons feel queazy and affect the bowels (though I have not virifed a source for this claim) BUT, when someone proposes a theory that seems to fly in the face of known science, it is up to that person to provide evidence in support of his claim: It is not up to others to disprove it. Thus, for example, if I claim that I can cure Type 1 Diabetes by using Martian Blue Spider venom, it is not up to you to prove that I can't - it's up to me to prove that I CAN. (I can't, by the way, and so far as I know, there are no spiders on Mars, tho' I can't prove it). Where, then, can one read published peer-reviewed papers in science and medical journals describing the use of acoustical vibrations at 528Hz to "repair" DNA? (And what does it mean anyway, to repair DNA? And are the notes absolutely pure sine waves at 528Hx with no harmonic content at all? Does the medium in which the tested DNA is repaired, not conntribute harmonics and "pollute" the "pure" 528Hz?) I am not for a moment arguing that one should not be open to new ideas, or that the spiritual realm does not exist. I am arguing that the 528Hz guy is talking nonsense, as is the "massages in water" guy. I am of course, open to evidence to the contrary..... As one science writer said, in another context, "The best way to counter claims of lack of scientific evidence, is to produce scientific evidence!". We know about sound vibrations in this list folks - we can do better than pseudo twaddle! Best regards, David Boyce. >What on earth does that mean?
