If I told you that there's a plant that can count, that plants respond to our emotions and thoughts and that water not only has a memory, but can also communicate instantly over cosmic distances, you'd probably think me mad.

Today I'd like to show you, and briefly talk about two videos that have made clear a couple of things in my mind, even if the topics discussed in the second video are only partially corroborated by other scientists than appear in the video itself. Prepare yourself for some wild explorations of our reality!
First thing I now firmly believe is that water is not understood by science and it probably won't be for some time to come. After sharing with you the scientific discoveries about water having a memory, and following up with the strong experimental indications that water also responds to emotions, thoughts, words and even music, the subject just can't be shaken from my mind. In response to that article @ankapolo rightly commented that this subject of water holds such deep implications for our understanding of the universe we populate, the surroundings we interact with each and every moment in our life, that it might be the most important thing for us to understand as well as we're able to. After all, we ourselves are 99% made of water-molecules and the Hydrogen-atom is the most common atom in the observable universe and was also the first atom to grace our space-time continuum.
If water really is the keeper of some yet unreadable cosmic memory, if it really is the transmitter of our emotions and actions, what giant implications might such insight have? I do have quite a large imagination, but this is something I'm not yet capable to wrap my mind around...
So I'm glad that there are some scientists that are willing to explore the "unthinkable" like shown in this first video about a flesh-eating plant, the Venus flytrap that is able to count and keep track of time, because it needs these capabilities to be as efficient as possible because of the high energy requirements of it's insect-trap.
Electrical experiments with plants that count and communicate | Greg Gage
I'd like you to especially take note of what Greg Gage says about the use of EKG, the recording of the body's electrical signaling via neurons in the skin or muscles, as this is the same basic technique that's used in polygraphs or lie-detectors that play a starring role in the second video. Also notice that the inner workings of this plan's "muscular structure" is heavily dependent on our wonder-fluid, and that he shows how plants can communicate information through electrical signaling.
The second video is a compilation of unofficial experiments from the nineteen seventies and - eighties, clearly first recorded on VHS. It's the story as I told in the post about water having a memory; these experiments are not taken serious by mainstream science. Even in the Ted Talk above, the speaker goes out of his way to emphasize that plants don't have brains, emotions or thoughts, even while he's describing and showing something akin to rational decision making by the Venus flytrap. He uses this experiment even to teach the basics of neuroscience to kids...
So please watch these experimenters and amateur scientists and their wild experiments with an open mind. I don't expect you to believe everything said in here, but the beginning and the end are to me very compelling. Light takes 8.3 minutes to travel from the Sun to the Earth and it's implicated that bacteria in water respond immediately when a solar flare occurs instead of 8.3 minutes later. And when you combine this with the knowledge that the Sun also is made of a lot of Hydrogen, and that in experiments here on Earth it is shown that the changes in molecular structures in water are also replicated immediately in a separated body of water, it really gets the brain going. Well, at least it gets my brain going...
Water has emotional memory
I know. The talking plants had me frowning to :-) Also the plants that seemed to be able to actually recognize people that mistreated their kin were a bit hard to swallow. But since no scientists are willing to try to replicate the experiments shown, and since the few that do are ridiculed by their peers anyway and since these so called amateur scientists and the few real ones that tried to follow in their steps have no incentive I can think of to deliberately lie about their results, I'm not willing or able to dismiss them in advance.
Too often have I read, seen and heard hard working and well meaning scientists being ostracized from the scientific community just because they present "uncomfortable truths". Like the work of many scientists that shows our civilization may be a lot older than we think. But that's something for another time.
