A trifecta of whackoery! Plant conversationalist Bird writes an
article for Nexus which gets reproduced at Scudamoreland!

The only thing that would make it better would be for Carole to tell
us about it.

But, wait ...

No thanks -- I decided to read Grimm's Fairy Tales instead. Just as
truthful and more educational.

I also tried typing "microzymas" into Medline. Guess what? Zero
hits.

Perhaps it's not the whole story. But it's far more truth than I'm
going to get from the likes of you, not-really-a-Dr Chuck.

Carole was touched by the minds of the terrible Old Ones, and imparted unto us
these blasphemous ravings:

From http://www.whale.to/p/bird.html

| There was, of course, the possibility that the newly generated
| "animacules" - as Leuwenhock, inventor of the microscope called them
| when he first viewed them - could have invaded the cultures from the
| ambient atmosphere or that they could have appeared because the
| culture media had been improperly sterilized. To rule these out,
| Reich superheated his bion cultures to find that the ostensibly
| "dead" mixtures still gave rise to the higher microbic forms.

| This led to the further conclusion that bions, as preliminary stages
| of life, were embodiments of an indestructible life force that
| defied death. This life energy he called "Orgone."

Consider various canned foods, like baked beans and tomato soup concentrate,
which can stay on the shelf for some time without changing, but open them up
and put them in room temperature conditions, and they start to rot. If these
"animacules" were truly immortal/indestructible, and gave rise to bacteria,
these canned foods would start to rot long before they got opened up
(anaerobic bacteria could digest the food without access to oxygen). It
would be impossible to properly sterilize *anything*.

| So apparently outlandish a discovery as that of a new "life energy"
| could not but rile biologists who had long sought to dispose of
| "vitalistic theories" such as those of the French philosopher, Henri
| Bergson, who postulated an elan vital, or the German biologist, Hans
| Driesch, who, borrowing the term from Aristotle, referred to
| entelechy. Biology was coming increasingly under the cold sway of a
| physics which adamantly rejected any "mystical" notions such as
| those of a "primal creator" or a "force of life", and therefore
| dutifully took its cue from the branch of science considered "first
| among peers."

It wasn't the concept of an indestructible life force which "riled"
biologists, but rather that the simple "animacules" could quickly give rise
to much more complicated living cells. The idea that these simple objects
could, in a matter of hours (or minutes), produce DNA, ribosomes and even
larger organelles, and arrange them such that they can survive and
reproduce... *That* is what's got them laughing.

It has NOTHING to do with the germs mutating in the people, and a
whole lot to do with:

1. The major and minor differences in the people. For example,
the deaths from SARS were largely confined to Asians ... come to
find out that they have a genetic difference in cell surface
antigens that makes it easy for the virus to invade and destroy
lung cells.
The major and minor differences in the previous exposure to
similar bacteria and viruses. For example, if you have been ill
from one of three main variants of dengue virus, getitng any ot
the others is much more likely to kill you.

2. The major and minor differences in the strains of bacteria and
viruses - there are numerous minor genetic variants, and
sometimes only a few of the many are serious pathogens,

ABSOLUTE BULLSHIT!

He is "said to have said" many things, including begging for
devine forgiveness for having dared interfere with God's plan by
developing vaccines that worked.

Can you cite as reference any direct communication from someone
who was with him when he died? Anyone can say that they hears
Pasteur said something when he died ... conveniently that was a
century ago and all the witnesses are dead.

1651? 1880s? 1925?
Certainly the most cutting edge bunch of references I've evre
seen.

Perhaps they can be used as containers for fusionreactors? No need for cold
fusion research, then..

I have to make a comment on this one.

Pasteur had a biographer. The biographer was present at Pasteur's bedside.
The biographer, the "official" one, has stated for the record that Pasteur
uttered the words, "Bernard was right, the bacteria are nothing, the soil is
everything."

Pasteur was recanting his medical lies.

I am well aware of many of Pasteur's vaccines failing to work, but I have no
evidence of any of them, including his hilarious failures with rabies, ever
working.

Yes, but you aren't aware of any vaccine ever working. I am well
aware of your hilarious failure to realize that most persons reach
sexual maturity before the age of 18.

You aren't aware of a lot of things, not-a-Dr Chuck.

I'll bet Chuck can't come up with the name of this official biographer nor any
documentation that there was such a person, at his bedside at death, no less.

He can't give you the name, the book, or even the alleged quote.
Chuck is such a jack-ass.
