The discovery of electricity calibrates at 445; the creation of the Tucker automobile at 175; the Ford automobile at 445, etc. Diversely, the research technique can be usefully applied to any area of science, such as archeology or paleontology (e.g., Piltdown man was a hoax? ‘True’). Thus, a tool is now available to save vast amounts of time, money, and energy in diverse fields of application, including pharmaceuticals and the numerous branches of biologic research. It is interesting that science projects funded by the federal government calibrate collectively at 150 points lower than those relying on other sources.

All of the major therapeutic modalities in current use calibrate well, and we see that psychoanalysis is of a high level of excellence for those who have the time, motivation, and financial resources for it. Its emphasis is on subjectivity and the evolution of personal growth and awareness.

As a diagnostic tool, kinesiology (muscle testing) at 600 indicates a major shift of paradigm because it is at the interface of the linear and the nonlinear domains. Its major value is that there is no other instrument or technique available at such a level, which indicates a shift from just that of the observed (‘objective’), but also includes the observer as well as the impersonal field of consciousness itself. Thus, muscle testing could be a tool
par excellence
for the advancement of science and knowledge.

When public health issues are addressed by various health agencies (Centers for Disease Control (CDC), U. S. Public Health Service, Center for Science in the Public Interest, etc.), manipulation of data is rather frequent and reflects politicized issues and the negative influence of preconceived policies. Grant money is often dependent on whether the proposed project will support a politically correct notion. Thus, anti-smoking and anti-obesity projects proliferated and the public reports were frequently fear-inducing exaggerations. The grossest examples had to do with ‘second-hand smoke’, which was rather transparently designed to demonize it and thus gain public support for the anti-smoking lobby. Fudging on statistics is rationalized because it is ‘good for you’, meaning good for the reporting agency. (Charen, 2004)

Clinical fallacies are rationalized as permissible because they support what is perceived to be ‘good for you’. Second-hand smoke supposedly caused an endless variety of ill effects, from sudden infant crib death to psoriasis, etc. Most of the studies also made the error of assuming that statistical correlation is therefore ‘cause’ (i.e., correlation of ‘A’ and ‘B’ does not prove that ‘A’ causes ‘B’, and both are actually a consequence of ‘C’ to which both ‘A’ and ‘B’ are independently related). As an example, 75 percent of people who develop tuberculosis wear brown shoes. Sixty-five percent of second-hand smoke studies were fallacious. The findings of the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) were invalidated by a judicial investigation (U. S. District Court Judge William Osteen, 1998), which proved the EPA had ‘cherry picked’ data and completely ignored the primary conclusions and data that showed no statistically significant health risk from secondhand smoke (Singer, 2004). The EPA defended itself from the Congressional rebuke by saying the EPA action was ‘for a worthy cause’.

The same trends continue currently with obesity studies, which the CDC admitted were erroneous due to a “math error” (Yee, 2004). Also fallacious were reports that smoking and obesity deaths were the cause of increased costs to the public. Actually, the medical costs at life’s end are approximately the same by whatever illness is fatal (all human life is ultimately fatal in the end). Death at age 70 instead of age 90 actually saves twenty years of Social Security payout (at least $250,000), plus twenty years of other Medicare expenses. Now that people are living longer, it is not illness but improved health and greater longevity that are escalating federal program costs (Pear, 2005). Social security would recoup quickly if retirement age were increased from age 65 to 67.

The significance of these findings has been mentioned elsewhere. Einstein, Newton, and Freud pushed the limits of the intellect to the edge, just short of the significant level of 500 where there is the shift of paradigm that includes the subjective and the reality of the spiritual, which was transcended by both Bohm and Jung and the inspiration of Madam Curie. These calibrations also illustrate the enormous, beneficial impact that their collective work has had on society and the advancement of civilization.

The levels of these institutions reflect the caliber of the faculty, which would be expected to be at least 400 (reason and intellect) at the minimum. Those below 400 reflect the substitution of philosophic relativism and socio-political positionalities. Naïve parents send their children to college to become educated and are dismayed when they discover that they have instead become indoctrinated with problematic philosophies (Shapiro, 2004). Radicalization of students calibrates at 180. As will be discussed later, the presidents of six major universities calibrate below 200, as do numerous academic professors and their departments, some of which are actually lower in calibration than that of their student bodies.
