Guest guest Posted February 21, 2001 Report Share Posted February 21, 2001 Hello All, For what it is worth....x-posting this. contributor was david f from rife group. Mike Slivinski Excerpted from an " alternative " heath newsleter that I recieve.... << This totally awesome, and shamefully free, newsletter is only sent to smart, perspicacious ....... Recently, something puzzling happened. I made a copy of Chopin's concerto in C-minor from my hi-fi to a neighbor's little tape recorder. I thought nothing of it until Louise, 74, mentioned that her severe arthritic pain almost vanished when she listened to it through her Walkman. At first I assumed there was some magic within the composition. I asked her to use my master copy. It didn't work! I wondered how this can be. I took both cassettes to a sound laboratory. Voila! On a dual trace oscilloscope it became obvious. Her tape had additional audio which must have been a result of some strange feedback when I made the copy. It was above 30,000 Hertz, far above our hearing range. To confirm this I quickly built a low pass audio filter with a very sharp cutoff at 20,000 Hertz. Louise still believed that it helped but not as well as the original. Then we made a hi pass audio filter which only passed frequencies above 25,000 Hertz. Louise couldn't hear anything although she said it seemed to help . . . a little. When Louise listens through speakers the efficacy is reduced. Thus far we have not been able to understand exactly what is happening. I loaned the " Louise " tape to Herman, 69. I just asked him to listen to it through a Walkman. I wanted to avoid any placebo effect. I said nothing about any pain benefits. Herman volunteered that it reduced his arthritic pain. Don't get carried away as this proves nothing. However, we find it very interesting. Should we be able to determine, scientifically, that the tape really works, we will make the audio file available on our website. Stay tuned. >> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
