Anyone remember "In Search Of" narrated by Leonard Nimoy and "That's Incredible?" They covered this stuff which would become the stuff of Ancient Aliens of today.tinascar2015 wrote: »I am surprised that nobody has suggested building a pyramid over one's bed yet. oh, crap. Am I the only one here old enough to remember when that was A Thing? Although, I think that was supposed to make it so you'd never age, not to detoxify. It was the 70s, we lived in a toxin-rich environment back then.
I do remember that pyramid fad! Someone even built a pyramid house off of I-94 in southeast Wisconsin, and every time I drove up there, I wondered how they hung pictures and arranged furniture. I think the Pyramid Era was the one before the Miracle Magnets Era.
Boy I loved those shows.
Also, I've driven past that pyramid house many times.. kitsch.
The real wackaloons adjacent to pyramid house come from "The University of Lawsonomy." - a kind of depression era crank theory of everything.
"Lawsonomy combined religion and economics and was based on a belief and adherence to what Lawson called "natural laws." Among several laws of the philosophy were: To know God one must understand his laws, true character is formed by unselfish acts, if man will act right he can have knowledge, God permits inactive creatures to perish and others.
Lawson used his philosophy to speak out about patriotism, diet, freedom of expression, spiritual worship and many other subjects. His followers were a disciplined group, wearing uniforms and adhering to a military-like structure."
I'm originally from Chicago, and we drove up into Wisconsin hundreds of times over the years. As near as we could tell, "University of Lawsonomy" wasn't a university at all. It was just a sign with block letters. Is that true? The first time I used an internet search engine, that was the first thing I looked up. No one seemed to know what it was.0 -

Look up Richard Lawson. Think a pre-war version of L Ron Hubbard.0 -
What can I say? Science, skepticism, sci-fi, and philosophical-naturalism have always held a special appeal or interest to me.TheVirgoddess wrote: »nakedraygun wrote: »
My guess, there will still be the same old battles of science vs pseudo-science and SBM vs pseudo-medicine.

And now zombies. I might be crushin on you a little. In a non-creepy way.0 -

In other news, I am a wanton selective Woo Broscience follower. If it's tasty, I'm in. If it's nasty, it's bunk.

So, I work in a hospital. I walked over to one of the doctor's offices, and I basically asked her "So, can you recommend a good detox program for me?"
She looked at me as if I was insane.
I guess that answers this question. :-P0 -
Thread locked.. way too much drama up in thread
2. No Hi-Jacking, Trolling, or Flame-baiting
Please stay on-topic in an existing thread, and post new threads in the appropriate forum. Taking a thread off-topic is considered hi-jacking. Please either contribute politely and constructively to a topic, or move on without posting. This includes posts that encourage the drama in a topic to escalate, or posts intended to incite an uproar from the community.0
