. I am thus not surprised that Walker could be considered "fringe" within a group where timidity reigns.

You think a community that came up with quarks and string theory is intellectually timid?

A paradigm shift is not required. Quantum mechanics IS a major paradim shift.

It was certainly a paradigm shift in 1924. We've gotten over it, though. Born and Heisenberg and Schroedinger and Bohr and Dirac, that collection of dimwits that missed Walker's great insights, explained it all to us.

Sorry, guy, we know a lot about synapses and neural transmission. Electrons scooting along RNA molecules ain't in the picture. If they were, you'd be out of luck in an NMR imager; you do know what electrons do in a magnetic field, don't you?

The scientific world isn't like FR. A theory that is plausible but controversial gets a lot of citations. But nobody bothers to refute a theory that is bogus on its face. One citation in the last 13 years is a far more telling condemnation than I could possibly write.

A few posts back I used the phrase hamster in a microwave to describe what would happen to brains in an MRI if they weren't magnetically transparant. Am I wrong?
