Lunar Danger! James and Ichi are the only ones?

Everytime I go outside during the summer I have an increased amount of trouble breathing and tend to sneeze. This does not happen during the winter, and generally the cold months. This must be directly related to too much sun exposure, because it pretty much always happens when I'm out in the sun.

This is proof that the dangers of the sun light is even greater than reported by many sources.

Arguements from authority are the weakest arguments in philosopy! lookee here! you have to prsent your own arguements rather than smply say "alotta scientists [who may or may not be working with a conspiracy if it exists] never noticed this, therefore it doesn't exist!"

Good thing we're talking science and not philosophy.

Not quite sure if that was a burn or not. Still funny though.

Actually, it's argument from false authority that's a fallacy.  Legitimate authorities are perfectly valid sources.

yes but we have to wait until ichis experiments are don! mayb he can be pioneering research into this field. give em time~

Yep.
Gotta wait until his experiments are done before you can call him a false authority.

people laughed at George washington! they laughed at Caesar! they laughed at Rockerfeller when he rowed people from Staten Island to NY before making it big and making a massive company! they laughed at einstein!

well maybe Ichi is on to something! I am being 100% serious...maybe he will pioneer some brilliant new research!

No, people cheered George Washington.
No, people cheered then stabbed Caesar.  Then bathed in his blood.
Don't know about Rockefeller.

Maybe, but he's jumping to conclusions by saying moonlight is harmful when all he's proven is that plants react to moonlight when deprived of sunlight.

Rockefeller was one of the three great monsters in 20th century history, the other two being Hitler and Stalin.

That I know.

That's what happens when you have a pure (or close to pure) capitalist society. 

But anyway...

When society mocks someone,they are right 99% of the time.

People that think we never landed on the moon and are convinced the CIA has tried to kill them three times.

P.S. - If the CIA really tried to kill you. There would be no "try," just "killed."

The CIA haven't done such a good job of killing Castro.

The CIA haven't done such a good job of killing Castro.

While that is true, Castro is the ruler of an entire country, extremely paranoid, and people would notice if he died. (like the whole world).

James is not the ruler of an entire country, is extremely paranoid, and only a very small group of people would notice if he died (friends, family, and coworkers).

Oh and James doesn't have an army to protect him.

I would protect James and he would protect me.

I'd protect both of you, and any of my FES brothers.

I would protect James and he would protect me.

You'd shelter from the deadly moon rays together under a tin foil golf umbrella. How sweet.

I would protect James and he would protect me.

I'll be sure to tell that to the 7.62x54mmR round that would make its way through James' cranial cavity.

Not a death threat -  a mocking of someone trying to protect another agianst the most powerful spy organization in the world.

Fair enough. I admire your commitment to courage.

In order for me to believe that moonlight is harmful, a test would have to be done under very controlled conditions. For example, to eliminate any environmental variables, I would measure the light spectrum emitted by the moon and then replicate it exactly using artificial lighting. I would use several variations of types of light exposure (sunlight & moonlight, sunlight and darkness, moonlight and darkness, moonlight only, sunlight only, darkness only), and I would at least perform the experiment on an animal vaguely related to humans. I would then develop some method to quantify the 'damage' caused specifically by the light. It would probably involve comparisons of overall health to that after an equal period of time exposed to normal lighting conditions and performing the same activities as during the tests.

It would all come down to eliminating the extraneous variables and quantifying damage, which none of the studies cited here have done.

You would have to take in more than one animal(Just before a FE'er actually takes on the experiment and claims you only stated it was neccesary for one animal)

I think it would be adequate if the animal were a species of ape, preferably a chimpanzee as they seem to be the closest related to humans.

Obviously if lower animals were used more than one species would be helpful.

Studies on a plant say absolutely nothing about their results on a mammal.

I was thinking that it's possible the animal could've gotten sick from something unrelated, therefore the need for more healthy animals.

Obviously the tests wouldn't be performed on a single animal from a species, you would need a decent sample size, and they should be kept isolated from each other to prevent the possibility of communicable diseases.

Ye, that's what I meant, but you know how these FE'ers find loopholes in anything.

Great, so animal cruelty is necessary to corroborate an already widely known hypothesis? Why? The scientists on the studies I've already posted didn't have to molest any animals in order to prove their point.

The scientists you've provided have shown the effects under the moon is only psychological, which has already been stated.
