Subject: Re: Rife = JUNK SCIENCE!
As a collector of quack medicine machines, the Rife machines are the best.
Lots of knobs on the outside but no works on the inside. Must work by
magic. The working gauges on the outside are connected to one or two working
potentiometers so they do show changes. Some of the machines have Tesla
coils to make noise, show sparks, and emit ozone (the harmful kind). These
were debunked as "JUNK SCIENCE" long ago when skeptics, God bless their
souls, sent in rooster blood which one of the Rife machines analyzed as being
a human female with iron deficiency. These machines conned people out of
millions at their height of popularity.
Best wishes to all on the list-
