...what then? What will it accomplish? Some of us will say, "see, look, there's nothing in there that could have the stated effect" (because nothing could, frankly). Others will see some sort of technical something that looks like engineering and they'll continue to believe it's real.Thing is, there's nothing in there that, according to known laws, could cause the effect people say it has. So go ahead, pop one open. But I don't see what we could possibly learn from the experience.
