MICROBIOME AERODYNAMICS & SEDIMENTATION RATES are studied & known. Who would have guessed that studies would uncover cloud formation & precipitation phenomenon as function of bacteria ubiquity & size.

Korean scientists quantify lift off, descent, & propagation of various bacteria “species” in the atmosphere & as high as 1,000 meters. These micro-spaceships average about 8 micrometers (if I got that right).
Atmospheric density of bacteria particles relates, in part, to their ability to nucleate with other airborne particles. Scientists can even differentiate the aerodynamic properties of these bacteria from larger (factor of 10x) pollen spores & larger fungal spores (factor of 5x).
Most surprisingly, these bacterial-driven spaceships can live & propagate while in the atmosphere via nutrient atmospheric milieus & sources of alcohols & other organic substrates.
In the mid-1980’s, Princess Stephanie (sister of Prince Rainier of Monaco) invited me to present at an intimate “Energy Medicine” symposium in that small kingdom. I remember it was their national holiday of fireworks & celebration.
At the Symposium I presented some of my research on healing energies of focused subtle energies; after the techniques of Dr. Paul Norgier, who was in attendance & to whom I presented a copy of my recently published book “Energy Medicine”.
Dr. Paul Norgier (physician & Neurologist, Lyon France) discovered the Vascular Autonomic Signal (VAS); key to his body of diagnosis & therapy called Auricular Medicine. He was discoverer of dozens of ear Acupuncture points. Classical Chinese Acupuncturists had only 3 ear points.
At the same Symposium, I met Sir Frederick Hoyle, famous Astrophysicist, who had recently published his research of the Spanish Flu pandemic of WWI era. Sir Hoyle studied epidemiology of the flue & contagion patterns by studying death records (British kept impeccable records).
What Sir Hoyle discovered was that the patterns of individual Illnesses were completely random geographically & unexplained by person-to-person transmission. The pandemic spread as if the influenza viral vector had fallen from the sky to homogeneously pepper the population.
Being an Astrophysicist, Sir Hoyle calculated rate of descent & possibility of survival of viral particles upon atmospheric re-entry/fall to terra firma. He was impressed virus survived, & theorized this was a cosmic event & dynamic seeding of humans with novel genetic material.
I don’t remember if Sir Hoyle described this or whether it was my own thoughts that surmised the idea that viral genetic strands might be explanatory for large runs of the human genome that do not have any seeming importance for genetic control of vertebrate physiology.
As I pondered these ideas, I tied them in with modern scientific regards that evolutionary phylogeny & ontology occurred by leaps & bounds. Evolution of species occurred in a series of genetic explosions, not as a series of gradual rolling mutations Darwin would have us believe.
Could it be that vertebrate & human evolution was driven by viral genetic snippets fallen to earth from intergalactic clouds? What might these theories impart to us about the current COVID-19 pandemic? Are the patterns of viral spread truly person to person?
Surely, phage forms are quasi-viral forms that invade bacteria. If our earth atmosphere is replete with bacterial spaceships, might these spaceships hold viral genetic passengers? Might these passengers be novel genetic material new to our species & vectors of our own evolution?
These are ideas that come to me in the lonely silence of early morning hours while sleep is fitful & elusive. It is time to go back to sleep, or perhaps it is time to wake up.
A few years ago, I was moved to record my years of Energy Medicine research at https://t.co/igEYp4IWO1. At that platform, I spent countless hours recording my career-long clinical journeys in two collections of essays about two areas of long-term interest:
One area of interest was Energy Medicine. The other was clinical research of a novel method of diagnosis I invented and which I have termed “Biomechanical Functional Diagnosis” (BFD).
The importance of Biomechanical Functional Diagnosis is that this method of clinical observation and record keeping provides a time efficient way to capture clinical data about complex disorders like Fibromyalgia & Dysautonomia Syndromes.
Absent a set of standardized examinations & shorthand charting formats it is not possible to capture Biomechanical phenomena & disorders over time, and yet within the clinical timelines attendant with the hurried pace of daily outpatient clinical practice.
In order to discover etiologies of disorders that develop gradually over time, as the organism encounters common environmental biomechanical assaults and as it ages, there needs to be standardized formats for gathering & recording clinical data. I have invented those formats.
At https://t.co/igEYp4IWO1, I wrote 100 essays about Fibromyalgia, spine & pelvis injuries, detection & consequences of soft tissue injuries, headaches, shoulder injuries, Cervicalgia, TOS, TMJ, Costochondritis, Panic Attacks, Gastroparesis, IBS, IC, Endometriosis, CRPS, & etc.
As I conducted my clinical researches, I sought unifying Principles about the nature of these various disorders, which modern medicine has relegated to separate diagnostic boxes with disparate sets of etiologies, various diagnostic criteria, & targeted by varying synthetic drugs.
My own regards, as result of my clinical experiences, is that most of these disorders have similar etiologies and that therapeutic modalities based on natural & non-toxic principles are the foremost ways to heal these disorders.
Besides my https://t.co/igEYp4IWO1 essays, which I published after 2012, there are over 2,000 answers to telemedicine clinical questions written at https://t.co/7GPL8qQFr2, where about 150,000 physicians voted me first in the nation for knowledge of Fibromyalgia.
In recent years, I have published more than 200 threadreader essays at Twitter, & about the same clinical subject matter.

BOTOX FOR MIGRAINES: Key to success is depositing the Botox in the best tissue: mid-body & occipital insertion site of the most spastic Superior trapezius muscle; chronic spasm of which induces chronic muscle tension headaches and reflexive Migraine.


Way to discern spastic unilateral Superior trapezius muscle: look in mirror, view your auto driver license photo, & to pinch leading edge of each Superior trapezius to determine which leading edge is painful to pressure & also thicker; from supporting a chronically tilted head.

Looking in the mirror enables the person to view which shoulder is lower. The head usually tilts toward the lower shoulder side; causing Superior trapezius muscle on the higher shoulder side to be spastic from chronically supporting a tilted head (weighs about 10#).

The drivers license photo often confirms which shoulder is lower and provides clue as to which direction the head usually & chronically tilts. Some people pick a posed posture & straighten up when they pose for a photo. Therefore, other and more candid photos might be examined.

Often, especially in hyper-mobile women, the spine is curved with a functional scoliosis (straightens when reclined), and this is explanation for the asymmetric shoulders and tilted head.
The exercise program is only for persons with less severe forms of Hypermobility (those who are still physically active) & who have not advanced to Fibromyalgia/ wasting disorders (who should begin an exercise only in warm water & until they are ready for walking on land).


My theory how persons with Fibromyalgia, wasting diseases & severe fatigue should exercise is that they should start with very gentle activities whereat gravity is negated & then through gradations of activities whereby exposure to gravity is gradually increased.

The first phase of exercise for persons with Fibromyalgia & wasting diseases should be similar to what was done with polio in the 1900’s: Warm water relaxes spastic muscles & enables joint range of motion exercises with gravity relatively negated.

During warm water physical therapy, efforts include specific exercises to strengthen muscles supporting a body tower able to stand on land; the goal. Trapezium, Serratus ant., Rhomboids, Rectus abd., Transversus, para-lumbars, Glutes, & all leg muscles must be strengthened.

Once standing on land has been achieved, then moving on land is the next goal. Moving would include crawling & walking. During this phase, people might need extra support of a sacroiliac joint belt &/or perhaps even knee supporters in the beginning. Walking sticks might help.
HYPERMOBILE YES! These are exact postures chosen by hypermobile patients with unilateral sacroiliac joint disorder & low back pain on that side. One leg bolsters the other so as to hold up the hemi-pelvis on side the SIJ is subluxing; because it hurts to sit on that buttock.


Another posture that attends unilateral sacroiliac joint disorder in hypermobile people is the Trendelenberg posture. This is to sit flexed forward with elbows on both knees. When brought to their attention, many are apologetic, “I know I shouldn’t slouch”.

The Trendelenberg posture is in fact the wisdom of the body finding the most comfortable position; in this seated bent over position the femurs leverage each sacroiliac joint into an anatomical neutral station; so joint ligaments are not stretched.

Standing posture liked in low back pain due to unilateral sacroiliac joint (SIJ) disorder: keep same-side leg straight & slightly flex knee on stable SIJ side; posture that lowers normal hemi-pelvis down & horizontal with loose sagging side. Body likes horizontal pelvis platform

People with sacroiliac joint (SIJ) disorder sleep restlessly like “rotisserie chicken”, but favored sleeping posture is on the non-subluxing-SIJ side; whereby injured loose SIJ floats upward; better if subluxing-SIJ-side leg is thrown up & over husband, dog, or large body pillow.
A video for people to test for hypermobility.


An experience I have with patients who have stigmata of hypermobility is that I will comment on their widespread joint Hypermobility & their rejoinder commonly is, “of course I do Yoga”.

When patients tell me that my heart sinks. I was excited to tell them that I think that I have an explanation for several of their seemingly disparate symptoms in several of the dysautonomia & MCAS spheres.

Instead, disheartening disappointment takes over as I realize that their yoga devotion has now forestalled my ability to teach them about hypermobility & many attendant dysfunctions they suffer.

When I examine women with hypermobility I sometimes say, “you would be great in yoga”. Often they tell me, “well, that is why I can bend like this, it is because I take yoga”.

The entire discussion around Facebook’s disclosures of what happened in 2016 is very frustrating. No exec stopped any investigations, but there were a lot of heated discussions about what to publish and when.


In the spring and summer of 2016, as reported by the Times, activity we traced to GRU was reported to the FBI. This was the standard model of interaction companies used for nation-state attacks against likely US targeted.

In the Spring of 2017, after a deep dive into the Fake News phenomena, the security team wanted to publish an update that covered what we had learned. At this point, we didn’t have any advertising content or the big IRA cluster, but we did know about the GRU model.

This report when through dozens of edits as different equities were represented. I did not have any meetings with Sheryl on the paper, but I can’t speak to whether she was in the loop with my higher-ups.

In the end, the difficult question of attribution was settled by us pointing to the DNI report instead of saying Russia or GRU directly. In my pre-briefs with members of Congress, I made it clear that we believed this action was GRU.
