annis024: February 2012 Archives

http://news.discovery.com/human/power-balance-maker-admits-bands-are-worthless.html

Ive had way too many people slap their sweaty power balance bracelets on me and prove to me how much more flexible i am. The idea of hologram energy enhancement is fun and all, but it doesn't take a scientist to see through the smoke on that claim. There was absolutely no scientific evidence supporting anything this product was reported to offer. This is a prime example of the placebo effect in marketing action. To have so many people utterly convinced that they were faster and stronger is impressive in itself. Are people really this gullible? Or is the larger problem the decline in critical thinking? But im sure that theres something i can buy that will fix that..
