Do thought waves exist?

[PixyMisa]

We have a fundamental disagreement on this subject, and I'm trying to walk away from it, OK?

But here you are exemplifying exactly the problem we are dealing with: Show up, make some claim, get proven wrong, refuse to admit this, and walk off.

Of course, you haven't (yet) taken it to the next level and started another thread with a differently-worded version of the same claim.

By all means, if that is your solution. I was just trying to educate you .

heh, or persuade

A wise man (ok, one of my teachers) taught me to always remember, "intelligent people can differ" on a given subject.

Some things involve opinion.

But when people differ on a question of fact, at least one of them is wrong.

Wrong. I asked you to investigate facts and form your own opinion. That is education. Apparantly you prefer to refrain from doing it and instead misconstrue my motives. That attitude will get you far here .

Of course we can differ, but since you stated your opinion, I (and others) assumed it was open for debate. Apparantly, we were wrong. You just stated your opinion, ignored all the counterarguments, refused to back up your assertions, and are now backing out. We know that kind of people. They are the ones that feed the "swatting" mentality.

You mean by EM & M.Waves or these are some new/other types of waves as "thought waves". Are these are some newly found/researched type of waves OR is an modification of older waves? What can be the science of undertanding/reading by body languages? What can be the science of sense by eyes & ears?

Where there is any interaction within two objects/person--waves/energy-atoms/molecules interactions should be there.

I'm lost trying to follow your point here but if I read it correctly you are merely asking through which senses are we picking up the signals of body language. If that isn't it then consider this just a thought I wanted to share.

The known senses are certainly adequate to detect subtleties of body language. It is the brain's interpretation where you might be thinking something extrasensory is going on. Actually the amazing thing is the interpretation is close to instantaneous and perhaps subconscious or at least close to subconscious because we don't take the time to think about it.

There is of course the well known olfactory sense picking up the much less well known pheromones which clearly impart information only recently recognized. The distance these chemical messengers travel is extensive but not miraculous. The other day while in my backyard I heard a car skid and could smell the burnt rubber odor within seconds. The car was at least 2 houses away and those two houses were in between me and the street.

There is the possibility of some other sense picking up some other communication but I think we know enough about anatomy to say we haven't seen any evidence of mysterious receptors whose functions remain unknown.

But all of these mechanisms involve direct contact with something that stimulates a nerve receptor. They also still require an interpretation component. As I stated above, brain waves would not carry any 'information'. You would receive an infinitely small electrical impulse if at all but it wouldn't be 'words' or 'thoughts'. And now that I think about it, electrical impulses just wouldn't transmit through air very efficiently either.
