　　Issue114."Humanity has made little real progress over the past century or so. Technological innovations have taken place, but the overall condition of humanity is no better. War, violence, and poverty are still with us. Technology cannot change the condition of humanity."

　　157."There is no such thing as purely objective observation. All observation is subjective; it is always guided by the observer&aposs expectations or desires."

　　Argument57.The following appeared in a newsletter on nutrition and health.

　　"Although the multimineral Zorba pill was designed as a simple dietary supplement, a study of first-time ulcer patients who took Zorba suggests that Zorba actually helps prevent ulcers. The study showed that only 25 percent of those ulcer patients who took Zorba(2) under a doctor&aposs direction developed new ulcers, compared to a 75 percent recurrence rate among ulcer patients who did not take Zorba(1). Clearly, then, Zorba will be highly fective in preventing recurrent ulcers and if health experts inform the general public of this fact, many first-time ulcers(3) can be prevented as well."

　　Argument35.The following appeared in the summary of a study on headaches suffered by the residents of Mentia. “Salicylates are members of the same chemical family as aspirin, a medicine used to treat headaches. Although many foods are naturally rich in salicylates, for the past several decades food-processing companies have also been adding salicylates to foods as preservatives. This rise in the commercial use of salicylates has been found to correlate with a steady decline in the average number of headaches reported by participants in our twenty-year study. Recently, food-processing companies have found that salicylates can also be used as flavor additives for foods. With this new use for salicylates, we can expect a continued steady decline in the number of headaches suffered by the average citizen of Mentia."
