Repy: The way I understand it is that the Earth or any other planet orbiting the Sun is falling toward it at a certain speed and is also falling away from it because the sun is round, at the same speed it is falling toward it. If the speed were to increase it would orbit at a further distance from the sun. If it were to move fast enough it would reach escape velocity and move in a straight line away from it. Does that make sense to you ? ...Dr.Syntax ... I did not mean to suggest anything you said was wrong. This is the way it`s been explained to me

I believe stem cell research is the field where there is some reason to believe some new discoveries are aready in the works. Have you heard of the case where a 30 year old woman had her trachea replaced with a trachea created from her own stem cells that were taken from her own bone marrow. There are some serious implications here. I mean good ones. Being from her own stem cells no need for anti-rejction drugs. Stem cells from adult bone marrow can be used to create what ? A kidney,aheart,an arm,a leg,new skin,new teeth. It seems worth checking into to me. Here is a link to that story wich shows the young woman there with no sign what so ever of any scarring about her neck and there is a video with her in it. Go to : http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/health/7735696.stm . see what you think of that. ...Dr.Syntax ......post script This is not the video I was describing. That first link did not work. But the story is there and another video that my system coud not play. Whatever, ...Dr.Syntax

REPLY: her ideas tie in with Janov`s. She does have peer reviewed credentials wereas Janov`s were not so easy to find. I`d be a little careful about trashing her or Janov for that matter. I am amazed how free some of you feel to go about trashing these two distinguished people. ...Dr.Syntax

Dr. Solter claims allowing babies to cry and have tantrums is essential to their physical and mental well being. She discusses a babies ability to have BIRTH PRIMALS and the importance of them. And that crying is also an important aspect of Primal Therapy. I wish to note that Dr.Solter is an internationally renowned expert on infant and child care. Dr.Solter is a developmental psychologist, lecturer,international workshop leader and consultant in three languages. She is the founder and director of the: Aware Parenting Institute. Some peer reviews of her works are here: [ http://www.awareparenting.com/books.htm#abnew. She is also the author of the following books: " Crying for Comfort" " The Aware Baby" "Understading Tears and Tantrums " " Helping Young Children Flourish" " Raising Drug-Free Kids: 100 Tips for Parents ". There may be some other books, I don`t know. She embraces the concepts Dr.Janov developed and is according to many,THE new expert on chidrearing. So Dr. Janov`s ideas are indeed becoming widely accepted by many people. Without much acknowledgement of Dr. Janov`s groundbreaking work. Oh well, Whatever,...Dr.Syntax

There is no mention of moving my thread back where it originated. No, what I am told is : " provide peer review sources in your next post or the thread will be closed". I find that a bit odd. Here I am in psuedoscience and speculations and peer review sources are demanded of me. Whatever, ...Dr.Syntax

REPLY: YOU STICK IN P&S AND EXPECT PEER REVIEW PAPERS ? If you want to close it I can`t stop you. You people seem to enjoy doing that to me. There is nothing I can do about it. I hoped to reach a few people who would could understand the importance of Dr.Janov`s work. Oh well, Whatever Dr.Syntax

REPLY: I can always expect a cheery little reply from you. Dr. Janov will eventually prevail just as Charles Darwin did and for the same reason. The truth is on his side. The evidence is mounting as to the validity of Dr.Janov`s principles. A Primal Revolution is coming to the World of Pschology and Janov`s going to prevail. ...Dr.Syntax

Quoting no one. There is no name attaced to this quote: who ever wrote it blacked out the name of RECIEVED FROM on reciepts from The Primal Center. I doubt they ever finished the therapy or the course. They never said they did. From the reciepts they didn`t appear to have attended much of anything. HOW CAN YOU QUOTE SOMEONE WHO WON`T GIVE THEIR NAME ? It seems an oxyMORON to me. Who are you quoting ? I find it hard to beleive it was some oversite. I want to know who you are quoting. That website is devoted to debasing Dr.Janov. Anyone who goes there be sure and check out their "Quote of the month" for some real laughs. And they devote themselves to debasing Dr.Janov. By all means check that website out and see the kind of hateful snobs crawling around down there. ...DS

REPLY:He developed a truly original therapy . He was trained as a tradional psychoanalyst but it was Janov who decided to let those first few patients he describes in THE PRIMAL SCREAM go where they would with their apparantly wild outbursts and see what happened. What happened was they had an unrestrained tantrum and felt much better afterwards. He knew something important to psychiatry had taken place and built his therapy on these new concepts. Primal therapy is the antithesis of cognitive therapies and therefore he is not very popular with traditional psycologists and psychiatrists. Frued himself never got beyond the notion that people were by their very nature in a never ending struggle with different aspects of thier brains. The conscious mind forever suppressing the unconscious mind. He saw this as normal. What a bizarre notion. And all that other nonsense he espoused. So Janov has few friends in the psychiatric hierarchy and many enemies. The peer review papers I found were written in german and French and I have no idea what they say but if you can read one of those languages I could probably find them again. Have you bothered to go to any of those websites to make what YOU will of it. There is some research he refers anyone to at the website [ http:http://www.primaltherapy.com ]. you can read it and make what you will of it. Janov has managed to piss a lot of people off over the years. He is uncompromising and a bit obstinate with those doing what he calls mock therapy. Any notion that Primal is a bunch of mindless screaming egged on by the therapists is antithical to how it actually works. There is nothing easy about illiciting feelings people have spent thier lives doing everything they can come up with to avoid feeling. It`s sad because when you get to that point where the repressed feelings have worked their way up from where ever they got buried up on through the complexities of a neurotic brain to the area of the cortex where it is about to be laid down after and only after it has been felt in all of it`s original intensity by primaling,whatever that is for that feeling. Very often it is deep prolonged crying. But even in the depths of the different miseries you know you are doing something crucial to your wellbeing. One good primal and you are a believer because it really does work. Janov was not much for sucking up and continues to pay a price for it. I do sense a new growing interest in Primal Therapy. It may just peter out again, I don`t know. I think Janov has a sense of urgency about getting his work more widely accepted. Also the internet is allowing him to contact many more people and he has loosened up a good bit. I think he`s offering online courses in Primal Therapy. I`m not sure that would get you certified as a therapist. It seems to me you really have to go through the therapy yourself to become any sort of a competent therapist. So whatever. ...Dr.Syntax

Here is a couple more websites that deal with some of the principals Primal Therapy is based on: " Crying for Comfort : Distressed Babies Need to be Held "written by Aletha Solter at : http://www.awareparenting.com/comfort.htm . That`s a good one and here is another :" Understanding Tears and Tantrums " by Dr. Solter at : http://awareparenting.com/tantrums.htm . These are both ecellent articles that focus more on how this pain comes about, but also recognizes that crying and having tantrums is what cures the infants when they are allowed to and that this same principle is as true for adults as it is for babies. They are interesting articles written by what I think of as the 21st Century Dr.Spock. ...Dr.Syntax

REPLY: John Cuthber is right Why are you asking the questions you do. It`s an explosive you know. A very unstable and therefore dangerous one.

REPLY: This thread was started by me. What you think means nothing to me other than that you are someone who feels compelled to ridicule others. I believe Primal Therapy is the only way to cure the problem [ unresolved feelings ] and finally be free of them. All any cognitive therapy can hope to do is to help you cope better with these troublesome feelings. Until and unless these feelings are resolved they will lie buried somewhere within you causing very real and harmful things such as cortisol and adrenaline to be pumped into your bloodstream causing damage throughout your body. No cognitive therapy can hope to do this because the painful memories never reached the cortex with the full force of the memory. There may be some partial memory there. But the really bad stuff gets blocked automatically and you therefore have no memory of it. It may and will cause a never ending distortion of everything you percieve. By the way,I tried to create paragraphs and it doesn`t work. The words just start piling up on the right side of the typing area and evetually form these blocks. So if you know of some answer tell me and I will see if it works for me. ...Dr.Syntax

I believe Primal Therapy offers some much needed help in a very troubled World. The need for human beings to find their way out of the maddness we all inherited seems to me, to be of paramount importance. I believe Primal Therapy offers the only true cure for neurosis. The only way to free ourselves of all the old fears,pains,anger and such that most of us have piled up within ourselves over our lifetimes. Dr. Arthur Janov dicovered this therapy over 40 years ago and has worked with thousands of cleints over those many years and devoted much of his time and resources toward researching his new therapy. I encourage everyone to visit his website : http://www.primaltherapy.com ]. There is a tremendous amount of information about primal therapy there: videos,articles,forums,etc.. There is no fee and no sign in or registering required. You can just go there and blog on. He has his own blog site that requires registration of a minimal amount for you to be able to ask him questions. Primal therapy differs from traditional therapies in many ways. In primal the idea is to elicit feelings from the patient. To help the patient allow himself to allow a feeling or feelings to arise from within himself and grow in it`s intensity in a natural way. Never to try and push or hurry the process along. That`s almost a sure way of screwing up the process. If done properly old memories of events that were blocked off and rerouted to different storage depots within the person begin to emerge and make themselves felt. These feelings never reached the cortex and remain as disconnected entities exerting harmful forces on the nervous system. Triggering stress hormones such as cortisol and adrenaline. These stress hormones are very destructive to the entire body and brain. These buried memories have a very negative impact on a person`sbody, brain,mind,feelings about life and other people, things like that. As these feelings emerge they intensify and the patient may begin crying or moaning or perhaps screaming in fear or anger. Evenually a point is reached where the old feeling arrives at the correct place in the cortex to be fully expressed and then to become but a mememory. A bad memory with NO PAIN OR DISTRESS attached to it. Simply a memory. I wish to get this posted now. ...Dr.Syntax

REPLY: You`re going to get different answers from different sources. I don`t think any of them have all the answers with any certainty though they may pretend they do and seem convincing until you read what the next one has to say. I`d be trying sources like http://absoluteastronomy.com for one. There is a lot more to evoltion than most scientists think there is. Here`s a fact to make you wonder. An AMOEBA DUBIA, a certain species of one celled animals has over 200 times as much DNA as a human being. An onion 4 to 10 times as much. That`s called the C-value enigma or paradox. Things like that. ...Dr.Syntax

"mutations are the ONLY source of source of new genitic material". What does that have to do with what you quoted me on. You seem to be correcting me about some mistaken notion I proposed BUT I never said anything about it. Whatever, Dr.Syntax

REPLY: no one said genetic mutation is what causes a new species to emerge. Almost all mutations are either harmful or simply junk,not harmful or helpful and don`t express themselves. They are inactive genes. The genes alread exist within a species to produce another species. When for some reason the members of a species are kept appart and no longer exchange genes amongst themselves, create two seperate gene pools, given enough time two different species might emerge. This usually takes many generations. For slowly maturing species like whales,or deer,lions, it could take a very long time. Humans have lived in seperated gene pools for tens of thousands of years at a time and yet are still the same species. They can still breed with each other. Certain insects have been known to generate new species within much shorter time spands. As far as a woman and a man developing the same mutation and mating with each other ,the chances of such an event are so remote. It would also have to be a mutation that expresed itself and most do not. It seems it may have have happened with some bacteria over the billions of years. Whatever, ...Dr.Syntax
