Reflections on I-Doser

Of course, there is still the original question about "I-Doser" which it is hard to get a handle on - most of it appears to be a scam along the lines of on-line viagra ads. There appears to be little scientific evidence one way or the other, but lots of links to You Tube videos, and sites selling audio files offering various "highs." I suspect that the effect is a placebo effect, but there is much about the brain which we don't know, so without evidence one way or the other, it's hard to know!

It's also interesting to note that adolescents (and adults) are still looking to pay money and experiment with something they view as "mind-altering" and "safe" regardless of whether it actually works or not. Humanity's search for something larger than oneself.
