    Why say that emotions aren't detectable by "scientific instruments"? If
    "emotion" is the generic name we give to sense data / feelings, they
    certainly can be measured. If I'm angry, there are distinct physical signs,
    as heightened blood pressure, a fast pulse, a rise in vocal tone, clenched
    fists, an increase in the release of certain chemicals into the blood, etc.
    If the instruments were developed enough, I'm sure there would be many
    things to measure for each emotion.
