Trying to promote an 'over-inflated' ego? You're missing the point.

Not at all. I think in about a decade of participation in this group,
I've posted my credentials about twice. I just don't like fanatics
telling me I don't know what science is.


You may have specifically proven a number of other things, but nowhere
do I see any studies you have done specifically on 'clear flashes'.
Have you even tried producing one yourself, following my instructions?

Simply using your other studies to negate out something else that you
have not tried does not make you "scientific" in that sense. Do you
even know what the word "scientific" means?

Nor would it make others "scientific" to believe you if you haven't
tried it yourself.



I'm not using my own studies to prove anything. I have not done any
studies on "clear flashes". I posted my background to make the point
that I understand what science is at a level that you don't. "Try it for
yourself" is the call of the charlatan. "Read the literature" is at the
center of scientific review. Just because I haven't tried something
doesn't mean that I don't know anything about it.

To top it off, I haven't made any claims about the Bates Method (though I
do firmly believe it is crap)-- I merely suggested that you might have
benefitted from Lithium from time to time.
