... that in order to see, hear, smell, taste, and so on, the brain performs complex calculations on the frequencies of the data it receives.

These mathematical processes have little common-sense relationship to the real world as we perceive it. Neuroanatomist ... creation of artificial "need", whereas the new economic paradigm promotes appropriate consumption with conserving, keeping, recycling, quality and craftsmanship as goals.

... Trevor Palmer [1 ] and Gunnar Heinsohn does not deal with in his response to Benny Peiser: the Jewish gravestone that Benny said destroyed Illig's reconstruction.

These events, and a long period of darkness, Velikovsky ascribes to an earlier encounter with time comet, from which fell red dust, meteorites, petroleum, and other substances.

... or "edge" of "Earth". As a traveler left the sub-Saturnian point, atmospheric refraction would cause Saturn to swell and redden. (To this day, red is a signal of warning.)
