Have you tossed out your microwave oven yet?

The use of artificial microwave transmissions for subliminal psychological control, a.k.a. "brainwashing", has also been proven. We're attempting to obtain copies of the 1970's Russian research documents and results written by Drs. Luria and Perov specifying their clinical experiments in this area.

Have you tossed out your microwave oven yet?
mine still sat in the corner gathering dust!

Reply:I've been trying to find a suitable Brainiac Don't Try This At Home experiment to err try at home...
Reply:A prosaic answer to a loaded question. No, and don't intend to. It is a practical tool to heat up, reheat and defrost, whatever subliminal messages are sent out. I wouldn't use them to cook. When scientists come to evaluate diseases of this generation it will be found that more damage was done by mobile phones than mw ovens.
Reply:No, nor have I tossed in it.
Reply:Hmmm, so I should reconsider my plan to buy the Sainsbury's basic range of microwaves? Will subliminal messages suggesting that I buy more food be emitted from it?
Reply:No, and I have no plans to do so.





Your assertion is complete nonsense. Whilst it has been proven that various things including magnetic fields, electronic probes, alcohol, etc can influence brain activity, nobody has come remotely close to "subliminal psychological control". The brain is unbelievably complex, and even now we do not have anything approaching the level of computational technology which would allow us to achieve something as subtle as you're implying. Even if we know exactly how to interface to the brain, we simply don't know what patterns to apply to it to have any particular desired effect.

Reply:From your questions, I notice you're on a real microwave oven tear this morning! I must admit I don't have one at the moment, and food tastes better warmed up in the oven, steamed, etc.





But I'm not quite clear on where the Russians came into the picture. Who's 'we'? Whom do you work for? Anyway, supposing there were anything to this, what would the microwave subliminally condition us to do? Use it again? There has to be some sort of controlled environment and some goal or intended result in mental conditioning. As far as conspiracy theories go, I'd be more inclined to believe you were were worried about something like cell phones or microchips in people's bodies, or satellite tracking of people's brainwaves, or other old chestnuts.





I seem to recall historically that there were similar suspicions of other household appliances, especially the tv and the radio in their relatively early days.

Reply:The key to using a microwave is to not stand to close. I don't believe in the subliminal control though,the powers that be do that with the television.
Reply:It`s true...
