I just got around to listening to this episode. Until recently I would have agreed that an educated person such as a physicist could not possibly misspell such a common word as “follow”. However consider that Richard Dolan, who does not have a Ph.D. but is well-educated, misspelled “lightning” (as “lightening”) *three times* in volume two of his UFOs and the National Security State. So, such things do happen. That being said, Stan Romanek is obviously full of shit.

Hi Fezringham

Season 1 kinda steps into architecture. It looked at strange structures such as underwater pyramids in China, pyramids in Europe as old as the Giza pyramids. It also looked at things like strange Masonic symbols in churches, etc.

I guess that's a start ...

I sent an email, but I should be soliciting others for nuggets of information. I guess for legal reasons you must state that MU is for “entertainment purposes.” Can anyone recommend other websites or podcasts that you would deem credible?

I really appreciate the show gentlemen!

Great episode guys! Loved the focus on strange medicine, germs, etc. Also, loved the comments about chupacubra...that's one of the greatest cryptozoology mysteries and rarely gets noticed!

I'm so glad that a fembot to help the elderly knows the difference between tickling and stroking...clearly, those are important to elderly caregiving!! [insert ad for the tiny blue pill] ...

Can't wait for the 'in the field' podcasts! They'll be awesome!
Also, I'm enjoying old school MU -thanks to the holidays- it's great seeing the transition from then to now!

I couldn't agree more. Not that this is a germ forum, but my partner grew up in a household where their mother was a complete germ/neat/proper freak. He couldn't have pets, I'm pretty sure EVERYTHING was washed was some kind of chemical cleaner, and still to this day, their house is like that. Needless to say, at 28 he's allergic to almost everything, and is constantly getting sick with colds/flu…needless to say, I was the exact opp. (and still am), and I'm a.o.k.

I think the medical system is slowly seeing the impact of the antibiotic/pill/purell craze. With the emergence and rapid spread of megaviruses such as MRSA, it's evident that some germs and dirt are crucial in building a strong immune system.

I agree about eating dirt.

So many of my friends go overboard with cleaning & steralizing. I was chastised because i didnt boil nipples (i used platex drop ins, cause i was lazy and had twins), just washed with tap water (A friend used bottled water for that and then boiled it??) or the pacifiers.

If I washed the pacifier everytime it hit the ground I would still be doing it. I would say they gotta eat dirt.

End result- my soon to be 3yr olds have seen the doctor 1x last year (I begrudgingly immunize them) otherwise between them maybe 2 colds and two recent fevers.

My friends kids are on nebulizers, more than two sets of friends, more than one child has had the tubes put in the ears and i never see any of them w/o that pink crap antibiotics in the fridge! Ha!

My kids are not perfect but they are healthy kids. I dont give into the swine flu crap. You dont need a shot or antibiotics for everything. I think it makes for a weakling generation.
