Crystal

Crystals are formed from metals and other substances that develop an intrinsic geometric shape and native bond length and angle.   Glass and plastics are not crystals, rather, they are amorphous solids.  Crystals occur in nature or they can be man-made.  Crystals have a lattice and geometric structure, which in some ways identifies their physical and chemical properties.

They like crystals and are attracted to them as their glitter draws them closer.

Each crystal has a characteristic bond distance, the length between adjacent atoms that forms an ionic rather than a covalent bond.  The length of this interatomic bond is the nature of this discussion.

Diamonds, rubies, emeralds, and garnets fascinate and attract them even more. They are a subject of interest and demonstrate worth and intrinsic beauty.

When the energy of a single frequency focuses on a crystal, the crystal bond will absorb the energy and reradiate the energy as a wave function in a lower quantum level.  This feature is called lasing.  Any even multiplicand of the wave function coincident with the crystal bond length is absorbed and then emitted or lased.   The reemitted energy is typical of a crystal bond angle and should not be confused with Albert Einstein’s photoelectric effect of 1925.  The reemitted light is coherent and of a single wavelength and demonstrates the intrinsic physical quantities of the initiator crystal in question.   In the photoelectric effect, light raises the quantum level of an outer or bonding electron which then falls to the native level and emits a photon.  When the energy is of sufficient magnitude and optical quality to be harmonic with the bond length of the intrinsic crystal, it reradiates as another form of energy that may be light, maybe heat, or even the weak force of gravity.  Again, this depends on the atomic weight and purity of the crystal as heavier metals demonstrate shorter bond lengths that determine the reradiation profile of that native crystal.     

What can we use as the initiator of the energy cascade?  Are they who want the beauty inherent to crystals willing to part with their property?

Does it take neutron radiation in a thermonuclear reaction to make the bonds lase?   After all a neutron has wavelike properties and a frequency and wavelength associated with it.  Can a high-intensity laser designed from a ramped-up photoelectric effect have enough power, E=h*nu to cause the bonds in a crystal to lase?  Will the re-emitted spectra have demonstratable qualities and quantities that enable scientists to use these forces productively?  Is the re-emitted light in the electromagnetic spectrum or really gravity, or time-space continuity?  Are the Di lithium crystals seen in the movie Star Trek a reality or a macabre fantasy of Gene Barry?

They adorn themselves with crystals because they are beautiful just as they are and they show them off unbelieving and unassuming of the true nature of the spectacle that lies within.

What is the energy necessary for crystal lase?  Can mankind create the necessary initiation energy and fabricate the necessary crystal for scientific use?  Is this re-radiated energy of sufficient character to harness and produce?  Will the nature of this energy continue to surprise as it surprises the other throughout history?   I don’t know because matter and energy are interconvertible and related to gravity and space-time.  The form function is merely an interpretation of the universal wave equation.  They wear them and they are as beautiful and desirable as they are.    Can I have my personal crystal and bring it home and infuse it with pi mesons to see what will happen?   Can it happen to us all?    Can a crystal make it happen and bring us to the next star: Alpha Centauri?     Is it silicon, carbon, titanium, or even nickel?   It all takes birth in a dream and when it is time the maker will surely fill us in with a hint and a smile. 

A lot of work

Back in the sixteenth century in Europe, the wealthy aristocracy wondered why citizens would get sick and die in the prime of their lives.   They prayed to find out why women died in childbirth and children were born deaf and what is tuberculosis, and a thing called cowpox.   The landed gentry with their money, and their power, and their influence commissioned scientists and general practitioners to elucidate the cause of disease.  These people began dissecting human cadavers to elucidate the causation of disease.   The disease is categorized by the color of the pus, the size of an organ (hypertrophy or hypotrophy), and its weight.   These parameters were the only ones available to the scientists at the time.   Pathologists still do the same thing and autopsies are hopelessly outdated by laboratory science and Microbiology discoveries.   Now scientists have machines that categorize sickness by genomic abnormalities but they do not tell the uneducated public that the mutations they discover might lie on the intergene DNA.   Most genes that code protein are well spaced out by spacer DNA.  This security through obscurity obfuscates horrible chemicals that destroy the DNA.  Most mutations occur in the spacer DNA if they occurred in the genes, they would not function correctly.

About one-half century ago, God’s gift to medicine decided after a half-century of practice that disease is either infectious or due to poisoning.   In other words, if a physician rules out infectious disease with a battery of laboratory tests, that patient has been poisoned.   Poisoning can be acute or chronic depending on the dose level and duration of poisoning.   Various poisons affect different organs in different ways and certain poisons affect different organs differently.  Poisons can be organic in nature, petroleum-based, or inorganic salts of various elements.  If a student looks at the periodic table of the elements, and looks at it again, at the groups and classes of elements with different electron levels, he or she discerns differences in chemical action.  The transition metals have electron configurations of plus two to plus six and can mimic to some extent, the natural ions sodium (+1) and potassium (+1) which constitute the major inorganic elements in the body.  The heavy earth metals like lead, arsenic, and more have an electron configuration of +2, this is why they are absorbed by the body.  Lead and arsenic resemble calcium (+2) which constitutes the major element of bone and muscle including the heart.  Any chemical element on the periodic table that ionizes, has the capability of causing disease if it accumulates in appreciable concentrations.  Scientists can look at the table and decide what element he or she is going to use as a poison. Even halogens that form a Negative one valence can uptake like protein which has a negative one valence in situ. 

The stage sets for American medicine in the twenty-first century.  American medicines’ preeminence happened because of laboratory science, and if the laboratory is not available, Chinese medicine functions better at diagnosis and treatment.    The tools for emergency room physicians are now high-pressure gas-liquid chromatography and mass spectrometry.   HPLC is ideal for enumerating organic toxins in the body.   Turn to the last chapter of the text (Current diagnosis and treatment) and look at the variety of common household poisons that affect humankind and can be brought to light for us all to see.   HPLC can bring a diagnosis, and treatment might be to be doused with hexane until the organic object passes out in the urine. Older people who sit in bars drink hard liquor not only to get intoxicated but also to initiate the elimination of organic toxins in their urine.  Ethanol solubilizes organic toxins. Do we need to be hospitalized and get intravenous infusions of grain alcohol?   Common poisons not in the text include atropine, strychnine, ibogaine, and more.  Further work in the field and pharmacy will eventually create modalities for the elimination of organic toxic entities. 

The real concern for emergency room physicians is inorganic ions.  Certain ionic species share predilection for certain organs and accumulate in these organs causing acute intoxication or poisonings of lesser amount and longer duration: chronic disease.   Pathologists will spend a decade removing organs from cadavers that died of chronic degenerative diseases and burning them with mass spectrometry until they understand what elements in the periodic table exhibit toxic properties and organ predilection.  The function of discovery is an easy task.  More arduous is elaborating on what chelating agents are most efficacious for removing inorganic ions from the body.   For example, what most internists regard as actinic keratosis in the elderly is merely chronic arsenic poisoning that if it continues, causes skin cancer.  Lead seems to accumulate most in the kidney and then the brain, hence renal failure and senile dementia.    Transuranic elements cause psychological derangement before chronic disease.  Does anybody remember when Psychiatrists had to be board-certified in internal medicine before practicing psychiatry?   Many Psychiatric maladies are merely chronic afflictions due to the accumulation of inorganic ions.   Is it true uranium ions cause manic-depressive illness?    The real work to be done is discovering novel chelating agents that remove metal from the body.  BAL removes everything.  EDTA removes lead and arsenic, deferoxamine removes iron and other transition elements.  Succimer which is a four-carbon moiety resembles oxaloacetate in the TCA cycle and causes sickness and weakness and although it is an over-the-counter agent, it is to be avoided because it is toxic and doesn’t work too well.   The sky is the limit, and drug companies have a lot of growing harvesting, and extracting to find new and more efficacious chelating agents.  Pathologists will be burning tissue by mass spectrometry to give the working public a handle on what is ailing them.   Then we have to find a cure.   Like the gift to medicine said, “disease is either an infection or a poisoning” and he was too old to do anything about it when he made this conclusion and discovery.   Now the ball is in our courts and there is a lot of work to do.  It is a lot of work!

La Bamba (slight refrain)

Yo no soy marinero

Ni desperado alquileres

Pero yo bebo tequila

Entonces sangria

Hasta que yo tranquila

Yo soy capitan

Yo soy capitan

Tal vez la bamba

Da me la bamba

Presta la bamba

Queria la bamba

Porque o sea

Porgue o sea

Yo no soy marinero

Ni desperado alquilero

Pero yo baila

En mis calcitones

Abraza con miga

Besa mi ligera

Porque yo pedia

Desfruta ti cercita

Porgue o sea

Porgue o sea

La la la la

Es la bamba

Nada se importa

Excepto tu y yo

Es la única

Es la bamba

Pide el señor para la bamba

Por gue o sea

Por gue o sea

La la la

La bamba
