My last word on the subject:

Excellent! Thanks!

If you machine existed, and created the effect you describe, I'd
believe in it.
You are a long way short of that, and my current scepticism is
correspondingly rational, despite what you'd like to think.

You could try. I don't like your chances of success.

Cyclotron reasonace doesn't need a cyclotron - just an ion, a magnetic
field and an RF field with a frequency that is a close match to the
charge-to-mass ration of the ion and the magnetic field, and an
environment for the ion where the mean free path is a lot longer than
the circular path of the ion.

Invoking it as mechanism for getting RF energy into the brain is
evidence of an imprefect education in physics.

That is fair.

(Still, I would like a yes / no answer from you
whether you believe there is evidence to support the
theory that Dr. Adey *did* use modulated non-ionizing
radiation to steer a lab animal's eyes against that
animal's will, as he claimed in his paper.)

Bill, despite my attempt at humorously characterizing your
position on this, I hope I have never implied that I
believe you're anything less than perfectly rational.

I don't claim another is behaving irrationally
unless I have a good solid reason.

Skepticism is good. Sometimes people who disagree with me
are correct and my point is incorrect. Discovery of that is a
'teachable moment' for me and I relish it.

That is also fair.

Excellent! That will be the thing I learned today. Thank you.

Guilty as charged.

I took Dr. Adey's evidence about calcium movement at face value.
I am skeptical about the resonance you point out as well.
Resonance is by definition frequency dependent.
Dr. Adey's transmitter effect is frequency dependent only at
the EEG level (~16 Hz), not WRT carrier frequency.

I feel calcium efflux is a side issue anyway.

I claim I do not know *why* involuntary brain control apparently
is always caused by a particular kind of modulated non-ionizing
radiation and you claim that calcium efflux is very unlikely to
have been caused by cyclotron resonance, in this case.

If we never find out exactly *why* involuntary brain control
apparently is always caused by a particular kind of modulated
non-ionizing radiation it will matter much less than knowing
*that* involuntary brain control apparently is always caused by
a particular kind of modulated non-ionizing radiation,
however the movement of calcium ions may be linked
to the phenomenon or not.

I still think the transmitter will work disturbingly well,
based on Dr. Adey's research findings. :)

Thanks!

He may have got the effect he described, but I doubt if the non-
ionising radiation had much to do with it, apart - perhaps - from
warming up the lab animals scalp. That sort of experiment offers room
for a lot of confounds.

I think you are taking Dr. Adey's results a lot too seriously - his
explanation is (to put it kindly) unlikely to be the only explanation
that fits the data he presents.
