You do realize that those "mad scientists" are in fact the reason why you can listen to recorded music in the privacy of your own home in addition to arguing with people who are far more grateful for the advances that the scientific method has brought us, via the internet.
It never stops being amusing when ever someone takes the time to compose an anti-science screed on a computer and post it to the internet. Put your money where your mouth is and move off the grid to the middle of nowhere or stand out on the street corner in rags proclaiming doom to any who will listen. The truth is you can't. You're too used to modern conveniences to do it, even if you actually felt that way. You're just the same as those middle class whiny "activists" who make "sacrifices" for the sake of fashion that few others can afford to take. While people like you whine about things you don't understand some people are actually working to make the world a better place to live in.
You might not think something silly like headphone cables has anything to do millions starving in the third world but all this woo stems from the same sources and you're contributing to it. I'm neither a brilliant scientist or a maverick inventor who will single handedly save or improve billions of lives but I can do my best to pave the way for their advances by spreading helpful memes and smacking down harmful ones.
Do you realize how much you're sweeping under the rug with that post? But Prog Rock Man is right, this train of thought is off topic. I'll give it a rest.
