hernandson:the research has been done amateur, theories' been made. . . but you are obviously an"illiterate in physics" ...so in simplest form for you- sound waves can bounce on smooth surfaces, to reproduce almost the same effect ( echo ). that's cheap knowledge for you. 1 Like |

junioromniscient: Maybe he is far from being a scientist. But you're not a 'good' one either. A true scientist leaves space for doubts. That is the only way he/she can expand his/her knowledge bank. When I came across the 'quack' info, my first line of reasoning was 'How does the duck make its quack?' That was before research and confirmation; Not just condemning outright with no in-depth analysis. 14 Likes |
