Peasants believed in meteorites

March 31, 2011 by Donna

Peasants believed in meteorites. Scientists excluded meteorites. Peasants believe in “thunderstones.” Scientists exclude “thunderstones.” It is useless to argue that peasants are out in the fields, and that scientists are shut up in laboratories and lecture rooms. We cannot take for a real base that, as to phenomena with which they are more familiar, … [Read more...] about Peasants believed in meteorites

February 21, 2011 by Donna

I’m beginning to modify: that, at a distance from this earth, gravitation has more effect than we have supposed, though less effect than the dogmatists suppose and “prove.” I’m coming out stronger for the acceptance of a Neutral Zone–that this earth, like other magnets, has a neutral zone, in which is the Super-Sargasso Sea, and in which other … [Read more...] about I’m beginning to modify that
