Paul Marik listed twice?

Are readers able to submit requests, vote on topics to have studied, read about sources of funding / conflicts of interest, or donate?

Thanks Paul. I have a suggestion. We need to figure out how to get affordable silica rich drinking water that is not in plastic bottles in order to get the aluminum out of our bodies. Chris Exley recommends Fiji water because it has a very high silica content (93 mg/liter) that binds to the aluminum to get it out of the body. However, Fiji water is currently being sued regarding microplastics. I use Mountain Valley Spring Water in glass bottles but that only contains 18mg of silica per liter and according to Chris Exley "Mr. Aluminum" it has to be at least 30mg/liter in order to successfully remove aluminum from the body. Chris Exley says no silica supplements currently on the market, added to water work. He has tested them all. Did anyone reach out to Chris Exley? I'm happy to see Dr. Shaw from Canada on the team. He may have some thoughts on this?

Marc, Thanks for the typo... vote on topics to be studied? No, WSES will, when fully funded issue Calls for Proposals under the direction of the WSES leadership, which is elected by the membership. We'll be as transparent as necessary on sources of funding, but nearly 100% will come from membership. We don't have corporate sponsors.

While I am easily able to celebrate this World Society of Ethical Science, as an eldering woman living on Social Security, membership in this org is not possible for me, and surely many others.

No worries, all papers published on the journal website will be well-advertised, and access is free. Only join if you CAN! Cheers.

For some time I have been a regular continuing doner to Popular Rationalism, and while I agree that the educational courses on offer should attract separate course fees, it is irritating to be tickled-and-dimed for things like a journal on top of the my regular support.
