Today featured a quasi review of Mallove's book, a bit about the blog, plus a few videos. One more thing about the book, before I go today. The author points out that anomalous events have been overlooked in the past, which if it hadn't been overlooked, would have credited the individual with a discovery that was eventually made by someone else. One example was the X-ray. The individual who discovered the X-ray got a Nobel Prize. The individual who overlooked it did not. There's a lesson in that somewhere. In addition to that, people have a tendency to deny the reality of an event. In the case of so-called "cold fusion", it appears that people are overlooking something important, such as excess heat; and when they don't overlook the excess heat, they deny its significance. Another lesson, if you care to take note.
I hope you found today's posts interesting. Thanks for coming by and have a great evening.
