Looking for adaptor cable to fit iPhone case

Quote: 1. Please post a link to the Japanese study to which you refer. The crucial question is whether the test subjects had knowledge of the source material which allegedly produced those physiological responses. 2. IMO you are correct when you point to an unconscious (or...- terriblepaulz
