Do equipment stands have an impact on electronics?


Mechanical grounding or isolation from vibration has been a hot topic as of late.  Many know from experience that footers, stands and other vibration technologies impact things that vibrate a lot like speakers, subs or even listening rooms (my recent experience with an "Energy room").  The question is does it have merit when it comes to electronics and if so why?  Are there plausible explanations for their effect on electronics or suggested measurement paradigms to document such an effect?

Sheldrake's morphic resonance hypothesis posits that "memory is inherent in nature"[3][7] and that "natural systems, such as termite colonies, or pigeons, or orchid plants, or insulin molecules, inherit a collective memory from all previous things of their kind".[7] Sheldrake proposes that it is also responsible for "telepathy-type interconnections between organisms".[8] His advocacy of the idea encompasses paranormal subjects such as precognition, telepathy and the psychic staring effect[9][10] as well as unconventional explanations of standard subjects in biology such as development, inheritance, and memory.[11]

Morphic resonance is not accepted by the scientific community as a real phenomenon and Sheldrake's proposals relating to it have been characterized as pseudoscience. Critics cite a lack of evidence for morphic resonance and an inconsistency between the idea and data from genetics and embryology. They also express concern that popular attention paid to Sheldrake's books and public appearances undermines the public's understanding of science.[a]

Despite the negative reception Sheldrake's ideas have received from the scientific community, they have found support in the New Age movement,[25] such as from Deepak Chopra.[26][27]

That's pretty amusing stuff.  If Deepak signs off on it, we are good to go.  

My Pop was a Biochemistry professor with a PhD from Oxford.  I am sure he is familiar with Sheldrake and his woo woo babblings.  He has generated no data, no NIH grants or body of research to support this.  He is an apologist for pantheistic woo woo plain and simple.  

Geoff, did these things come to you in an epiphany or did you do the subconscious copy and paste from chaps like Sheldrake?

I hate to judge before all the facts are in but I’d say you inherited your Pop's close-minded brain. Guess Morphic resonance does work! LOL

Would you believe I copied the paragraphs from Sheldrake’s website. I never said the words were mine. In fact I said they were not mine. Hel-loo!

Randy is kinda like Eggo waffles. Thick and flakey. Geez, just try to elevate the level of discussion.

And you ascribe to this woo woo without data?  Hel-loo!????

Its just theory, but should not be presented so brusquely as fact.  That is your primary weakness in the context of these debates.
