[QUOTE="Manbearcat, post: 6094488, member: 6696971"] Just want to take a look at these and confirm that these don't have "weirdness". When they do not, could you explain how these are not abstractly "someone else letting you spend a surge" etc. I'm sure you have some sound thoughts on this, but they escape me. - Tennis player starts limping. Trainer comes out during a tennis match changeover. Trainer tapes player's ankle, thigh or knee. Tennis player plays on. - You have strep throat/sinus infection. You go to the doctor. Doctor prescribes antibiotics. You take and get better in a few days. - You have a 100 % ruptured achilles tendon and cannot walk. Orthopedic surgeon repairs the torn pieces and reattaches them. Only 20 years, this injury was life impairing. Now you're walking in a boot for 6-12 weeks and have total recovery in 6 months. - You have horrible muscle spasms in your back and breathing or twisting is agony. You go to a massage therapist and they massage out the spasm and give you a muscle relaxer and you're good to go. - Tons of cases of placebo effect from muscle relaxers, to blood pressure medicine to non-alcoholic beer to mommy kissing a booboo and making it all better. - No one, certainly not his teammates, thought Willis Reed would play game 7 of the 1970 NBA finals. While the teams were warming up, Reed, by far the best player on an outgunned Knicks team playing against a Lakers dynasty, hobbles onto the court after fully tearing a thigh muscle in game 6. He only scores the opening 2 points in the game but those short minutes were enough: "I saw the whole Laker team standing around staring at this man," said Knicks guard Walt Frazier. "When I saw that, when they stopped warming up, something told me we might have these guys!" Are those not cases of someone else unlocking your surges? [/QUOTE]
