Guest guest Posted April 15, 2004 Report Share Posted April 15, 2004 It seems as though some of the immunicsBuddies groups are getting big enough to produce world sweeps. Everyone whom I've asked to test the question, " How many people who have cured something, and who know each other, and who are continuing to talk to each other and defend against recurrences of that disease, are needed to ignite a world sweep in curing that disease? " has tested some number under 10. I'm sure that this is not true for all diseases, but it certainly seems to be true for the ones I've been asking them about. And sometimes my question was about " any disease. " So I'm guessing that it's possible for some of you to do this in some diseases. Now I don't know if this next thing I'm going to say is even testable, though I tested it, but it seems to me that if a world sweep ignites in one disease, that sweep will easily cross-pollinate to other diseases. People with cancer who learn that people with HIV are controlling it with immunics are quite likely to start controlling their cancer with immunics. It's simply becomes easier for them to accept the idea that that's possible with cancer if there is a thundering mass of people doing it with HIV. It is also a sociological reality that the more people do something a certain way, the more vocal any given one of them becomes about that. I have noticed huge inarticulateness in people who have had major results in curing themselves -- sometimes all they can manage to do is dash off a couple of lines in an e-mail. They're certainly not phoning their Congressmen. But it is known to sociologists that when thousands of them do the same thing, and know one another are doing it, that they do tend to phone their Congressmen, and express what has happened for them in numerous other ways. And this is how world sweeps happen. World sweeps happen when: People cure things. People tell other people they cure them. People tell other people they cure them again, and don't stop telling other people they cure them until everybody in the world cures them. So I'm hoping to soon see this happen in these groups, even groups like COPD or AHD who only have a few members -- at this point, under 10! If you need any help from me, just ask.
