I really do read your posts. What I don't understand is how you could have read the opening words of this thread and yet kept banging on about brain waves. Here's what you said most recently:
chaz wyman wrote:Let's talk about "Brain Waves" if you like.
First thing to learn is that there is NO SUCH THING. The brain does not send out a BRAIN_WAVE. There is nothing distinct from the EM spectrum that makes what the brain does unique, special or significant. The concept of the Wave or Ray is a science-fiction term. There is no Gravitic Ray or Wave, distinct from others.
Fair enough, you start by talking about brain waves, but then you seem to generalise by saying there is no such thing as a Wave or Ray. It is confusing, because I have never heard of a brain ray and I'm not clear what 'Gravitic' has got to do with it either. My first words in this thread were 'The brain creates an electromagnetic field.' An EM field has little to do with brain waves.

Well I read them, but they're not always as clear as you think they are. A bit like I said before:

chaz wyman wrote:Not for me to say? What???
tillingborn wrote:Of course not. You can’t insist that people interpret your words in the way that you hope they will.
I don't always understand what you are saying, in part, I suspect because you don't understand what you are saying either. When you do at least write sense, I don't always agree.
chaz wyman wrote:Wiki entry describes then as "a layman term for the electric fields measured by Electroencephalography".
And like I said 'A rose by any other name...', but as I am a layman it seems appropriate to say brainwave rather than 'the electric fields measured by Electroencephalography'. Actually, I think that description is misleading, the potential difference measured is caused by moving charges, much the same as charge is carried by any conductor. It's not the same as measuring EM.
chaz wyman wrote:Brains do not make unique waves and the term is from sci-fi.
I know brains don't make unique waves, I have made that very point several times.
chaz wyman wrote:Electroencephalography detects tine voltage fluctuations between electrodes placed directly on the scalp.
Indeed, and not the EM field.
chaz wyman wrote:You are not playing the game properly.
Well I didn't realise the game was to post self righteous, glibly vituperative codswallop. I'll try harder.
chaz wyman wrote:I should not have to repeat myself.
It's irritating isn't it? But as long as you keep misrepresenting what I have said, I shall keep correcting you. For example:
tillingborn wrote:Brain waves are not the same thing as the EM field they generate, just as the ripples on a duck pond are not the same as the pebble that caused them.
You do give the impression that you are not paying attention.
chaz wyman wrote:Let's recap anyway:
Nope you are getting boring because you are ignoring basic facts, and not reading my responses.
Sorry if I'm boring.
I do read your responses, but a lot of what you say is based on the misconception that I, like you, don't know the difference between electricity and electromagnetic waves.

Hence the perfect Christmas gift for anyone with a fear of lightning. Chaz, this is silly; brain waves, EM waves, not the same thing you know?
chaz wyman wrote: Waste electrical signals expressed as heat is not equivalent to a soul.
Do you really, really not understand the difference between the electrical activity of the brain and the EM field it generates?
