There's that opinion of yours again. Sorry, but I know and can verify
Dr. Mercola's credentials... and I don't know yours. Given that one
fact, I'd take his opinion over yours any day. And once again, such an
article being "insane" is your opinion. All I had to do was Google the
words PASTEURIZATION MILK and AUTISM to get thousands of hits on the
subject. Right at the top was this very interesting one:
http://www.autismcanada.org/News/HeatKilledBacteriaMarch132003.htm
The first cases of autism started around the early 1940's. During that
time a lot was changing in America. Vaccines were becomming popular,
food refining processes were being developed and yes, pasteurization was
well on its way in.
I fail to see what evidence you have to disprove the article you mention
on Mercola's site. Perhaps that's because I've found so much
information online agreeing with the article.

I have no idea about the AC, DC portion of the article, but it seems
that pubmed disagrees with your assertion that the notion of microwaves
being dangerous is lunatic:

Microwaves from the sun are greatly filtered by our atmosphere.
Microwaves from MW ovens and cell phone towers are not. It is
undisputed that microwaves can change cellular structure. Don't believe
me? Ask a nurse to heat refrigerated blood in a microwave before use.
They won't do it because they know it'll kill the transfusion recipient.

Well, once again it's your opinion. If you're not educated enough to
filter out the "****" for yourself then maybe it's not a good site for
you to visit. Personally I find a lot of useful information there.

Sorry. I just hit reply. I didn't realize I was replying to more than
one group.

Oh now I get it. You agree with me... you're just one of those guys
that gets his rocks off by disagreeing with people. Well, whatever make
you happy... but from here on out, I'm going to require some evidence of
your positions if you expect me to take you seriously. I did a search
of this group for your name and couldn't find a single post from you
where you offered anything other than your opinion. Sorry, but your
opinion has no value to me unless it's supported by something I can
verify... just as I did for you above.
Max.
