    Debunked: Study shows link between menstrual cycle and the moon

    All potential reasons why the effect only shows up in some people and not in others. Btw, most cloud cover doesn't really affect the brightness of a full moon night much.

    Debunked: Study shows link between menstrual cycle and the moon

    One study done by Dr. Raegan Wells, DVM, suggested that emergency room visits during the three days the moon is full increases by a staggering percentage. Her research shows there was a 23 percent and 28 percent increase in the number of cats and dogs, respectively, in the emergency room during...

    Debunked: Atmospheric pressure on Mars is 9 PSI, not 0.09 PSI as claimed by NASA

    No need to apologize. But you're not doing it for him; you're doing it for me and everyone else who reads your posts, including anyone who reads this in five years when some of the links may have changed. I tend to pick what I found compelling when doing excerpts.

    Debunked: Atmospheric pressure on Mars is 9 PSI, not 0.09 PSI as claimed by NASA

    Plain Language Summary The atmosphere of Mars is made up of primarily carbon dioxide, and during the Martian year, the barometric pressure is known to cycle up and down substantially as this carbon dioxide freezes out and then is rereleased from polar caps. The Mars Science Laboratory Curiosity...

    Debunked: Atmospheric pressure on Mars is 9 PSI, not 0.09 PSI as claimed by NASA

    You've been here long enough, you ought to know you absolutely need to copy and paste your sources because of metabunk's link policy. PS Science Objectives and Requirements The MEDA Pressure Sensor (PS) will continue a long history of pressure measurements from the surface of Mars that began...

    Debunked: Study shows link between menstrual cycle and the moon

    Well, Strassmann didn't find any effect at all, so with that data, she couldn't possibly have answered the question if moonlight was causing it. The human body is complex, the reproductive cycle is complex, it's not surprising that some effects might not occur to everyone or at all times. I can...

    Claim: MI Court: Michigan Secretary of State’s Absentee Ballot Order Broke Law, Vindicating Trump Claim

    That's an oversimplification. I haven't found the guidance itself, but this is what the judge said about it (and he also said that this guidance wasn't established on 10/6, it was mostly a copy of existing guidance): The stated purpose of the at-issue document was to “provide[ ] standards” for...

    Debunked: Corbett Report Targeted by Google/Youtube

    The channel "Corbett Report Extras" is still live at https://www.youtube.com/c/CorbettReportExtras/videos but https://www.youtube.com/corbettreport is gone.

    Debunked: Corbett Report Targeted by Google/Youtube

    I posted Episode 398 of The Corbett Report podcast, “Science Says,” around 10 PM Japanese Standard Time on Friday, April 9th, 2021, and then went to bed. Sometime shortly after midnight, the main Corbett Report channel was removed from YouTube. [..] Indeed, it was not surprising in any sense...

    Debunked: Study shows link between menstrual cycle and the moon

    Sunlight has various effects on the human body. I'm not really surprised that moonlight could have some effect as well. I'd not suspect gravity. I'm also not surprised that the substances in an artificial perfume have hormone-like effects (that's re: the laundry detergent story).

    Claim: Jim Hoffman's "9/11 progressive collapse challenge" can't be met

    You're a lot better informed than I am on that matter; I may have been thinking of the progression stage, where the tower collapses inside the shell, and the empty facade then topples later. My process works the opposite way: the shell goes first, then the floors topple, and they topple...

    Claim: MI Court: Michigan Secretary of State’s Absentee Ballot Order Broke Law, Vindicating Trump Claim

    Well. You imply a good point there. The news reporting I quoted is consistent with a legal opinion of "this was ok because this was an emergency, but you've got to do it properly going forward", which would be NO point for the "Trump side" at all. It is consistent with that because the reporting...

    Claim: Jim Hoffman's "9/11 progressive collapse challenge" can't be met

    Thank you for making me aware of that thread. Its aim is to model the initiation stage of the actual collapse, which my model would not do, as far as I understand it, except on very general principles: "fire weakens the structure,which then starts to collapse from the top" -- but obviously the...

    Claim: Jim Hoffman's "9/11 progressive collapse challenge" can't be met

    On the original challenge Debunkers have not fared well with challenegs offered by conspiracy theorists; there is a long history of challenges in the Flat Earth domain, some of which have been decided in court, and the answers to the challenge have never managed to convince the challenge...

    Claim: Jim Hoffman's "9/11 progressive collapse challenge" can't be met

    On paper tubes Office paper is engineered to be strong, because it needs to withstand mechanical processing in copiers and printers and retain its shape. Its fibres make it so. I suggest constructing the tower from wallpaper or paper tablecloth, these are typically weaker, and can be bought in...

    Claim: MI Court: Michigan Secretary of State’s Absentee Ballot Order Broke Law, Vindicating Trump Claim

    "Vindicating Trump claim" is a misleading headline, since Trump's general claim is that the election was "stolen" through widespread fraud, and this case decided in the Michigan Court of Claims does nothing to support that claim. The decision is subject to appeal; I don't know if the state is...
