:I agree with the anon.  The article begins by talking about "the reaction" as though we are meant to know what it means.  I suspect this was cut-and-pasted from somewhere.....perhaps the middle of an article elsewhere here?

Talk:Free Zone (Scientology)

message: I'm not sure I completely agree with the removal of the Germany paragraph. Yes, it was positioned awkwardly by being placed before the section "The Church of Scientology and the Free Zone". I'm thinking of reworking the article Scientology status by country and this Germany paragraph would be relevant (here). It shows the contrast between how Germany sees the Church of Scientology (dangerous organization) and Freezone (relatively harmless hobby). I wanted to at least make a note of this particular edit here for when I get around to reworking the "status by country" article. It's possible that that research would turn up other countries that shun CoS but don't care about the independents, in which case a section here called, perhaps, "Perception by government authorities" or something similar. On the other hand, that 'news' is 24 years old. Just tossing around the idea. Grorp (talk) 09:43, 4 January 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: Hi @Grorp. I think making a section called "Perception by government authorities" makes sense for that paragraph (plus it expands the article in a nice way).

Talk:Responsible Drug User's Oath

message: thumb|right|preserving the history
It seems like the deletion debate was back in 2004.
Now the sentiment towards using drugs is changing.
I'm always advocating the following factors:
* research
* data
* science
* education
* rationality
On the other hand, I don't really like the B.S. and media propaganda of the 1960s. War in Vietnam in full swing, peaceful movements getting out of control:
* make love not war
* drop acid not bombs
The economic incentives of private prison system combined with "war on drugs" and no such thing as internet to share the knowledge, suppressed scientific research and here we are in 2018...

message: The article claims that the Shōnan-Shinjuku Line runs entirely on the tracks of other lines, but as far as I can tell, this is not completely true.

I've never seen freight trains or any other train other than Shōnan-Shinjuku trains running along this section of the track, at least between Ikebukuro and Kaminakazato.

thread_title:  Just do it 

message: The significant thing about Mutke's claim is not that he suffered buffeting. Buffeting was regularly reported by military pilots at high speed. The significant thing is that Mutke reported the buffeting increased as the speed seemed to increase in the dive and then suddenly stopped without the aircraft slowing and normal control returning. It is the sudden stopping of the buffeting and control returning without slowing down that is significant as this is typical of the smoothing out that occurs when supersonic flow is achieved over the entire airframe. He then reported that the plane slowed as the engines flamed out and the buffeting resumed. This is what happens when dropping back into the transonic region.GregOrca (talk) 13:16, 29 September 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Presently I've counted 4 appearances of a description of crossing the sound barrier in this article. It is a redundant read. Once from the pilot's perspective and then maybe a second time abstractly to reinforce the phenomenal significance would be plently.

I wonder if there is any chance that, if the baby was Merritte, if the hydrocephalus was caused by these experiments?
I am not a doctor, and I read the article on hydrocephalus, and I see that (1) it is not only a birth defect (it can develop later in life), and (2) it is usually attributed to physical causes.
I recognize two (probably very slim) possibilities: (1) that the vibrations from the hammer striking that bar behind the baby were enough of a physical stimulus to cause the hydrocephalus, or (2) the emotional reaction to the stress caused physical reactions (which, as we know, stress does have physical manifestations), and either the emotion or the physical reactions caused the hydrocephalus.
