Re: Yay!

Wombat, I can relate to the lament of long hours reading large essays from a computer screen. I've found a flat screen and a printer to be indispensible accessories to this overall investment.

As to shedding more light on Price, the allegation that Price's research was repressed is easy to answer to and perhaps bears repeating. His findings were published over 60 years ago. While I can only speak for myself, I do suggest that same or similar effect (having information withheld) is likely to apply to pretty much anyone among the masses at large. I first stumbled upon Price only within the last 2 years, work that is of a nature that I have not been going out of my way to avoid over the years.... 60 years..... just found out 2 years ago.....why wasn't the History Channel, or Discovery, or NBC, or CNN or FOX or CSPAN, or Time or the Times or Uncle Sam informing me of this, why has somebody anbybody from the collective mass-media & brain trust not been trying to drum this into my consciousness from as early as 5, 10, 20, 30 or more years ago?....what's up with that? My allegation that Price was in part knowingly involved or complicit in the cover up, I admit was somewhat of a subjective opinion the result of having done a lot of eye-tiring on-line reading in studying and researching. Off the top of my head I cannot think of a referal to a short document or web site that will quickly reveal anything along the lines of "Price was complicit", but if you pursue this topic, I'm confident that you may eventually reach this same conclusion. If and as you peruse the medical hiearchy and the history therein, you may even find good reason to change or revise preferences for what you believe...... scary, I know, but possible :)

There are a few people, one or two very close to me, who've expressed that they might make a more consistent effort to get self-informed on issues if it were not for the problem of eyestrain. Taking in relatively small computer text output usually does require one to spend considerable time staying up close within a few feet of the display. On the other hand, being within the effective field and target zone of that which comes out of a TV is not so specific, or in other words is a much broader effect that can easily be accomplished from as far away as an adjoining room 20 to 30 feet or more away; especially in consideration of the trend/hype/craze for big-screen and surround-sound gadgetry. There is one person whom I have observed that their eyesight really has been degrading the past few years. Glasses are a mainstay and these help only for seeing the broad picture but they do not help much to bring fine fine details into focus. In a way it's a shame to observe someone else losing some of their most critical senses, not only is intense reading difficult, numerous aspects of what we consider every-day going about one's business and generaly functioning are impacted; such as the degree of eyesight required to safely operate a vehicle has increasingly become a real concern...... but this same loved one has no qualms about plopping themselves down, daily, within range of a TV for hours at a time........
