Wow. Are you aware that something inside thunderstorms is creating pulses of gamma rays? These anomalous pulses are detected by military satellites intended to find covert A-bomb tests. These gamma ray bursts, or TGFs (Terrestrial Gamma-ray Flashes) in theory cannot happen, since the high pressure of the air will keep the electron trajectories short, so electrons can't get up to KEv speeds to create KEv photons.

June issue, I think. Note that lots of "Electrical Experimenter" 1910 era magazine issues are available for five bucks as PDF files. The guy at http://store.g-books.com is selling them. More weird stuff: on teslaflyingmachine group on yahoo.com, the author of "Occult Ether Physics" says that Tesla later built a bulb from a metal hemisphere but WITHOUT ANY VACUUM BULB. In thinking about this, I think it's possible. The bulb will self-pump its own vacuum during operation, just like Tesla observed in his lecture on the bulb shown at http://amasci.com/graphics/tesblb1b.jpg. Suppose we take a solid aluminum hemisphere with a flat polished face. Put a glass disk against the flat face and seal the edge and cover the whole thing in thick insulator. If this device is then operated with a CW tesla coil, a high-frequency AC plasma will appear in the thin air film between the glass plate and the aluminum. The air will vanish! There's an "ion pump" effect which drives the gas ions at high velocity into the metal surface where they're permanently trapped. Given enough time, a hard vacuum will form in that narrow gap. Now if we have a capacitor-like device with: a metal plate, a glass plate, and a vacuum layer between them, and if we drive the metal plate at extremely high voltage AC of high frequency, then something interesting should occur. The voltage drop should mostly appear across the vacuum layer!!!! This happens because glass is conductive at high frequencies (because it contains movable charges.) The higher the dielectric constant of the glass, the more AC voltage will be impressed across that vacuum layer. Second, a glow discharge will develop in the air surrounding the device, and this gives a second "conductive plate" as well as a long conductive "wire," so our vacuum capacitor develops two real terminals. The conductive plasma path connects capacitively to ground. This again should increase that voltage drop impressed across the thin vacuum layer. And finally, with that high a voltage on a hard vacuum next to a metal, the metal will send out electrons via high-field emission. And on alternate cycles, the electron cloud will smash into the metal at extreme high velocity, producing Bremssralung x-rays. The metal should be highly polished in order to create a parallel beam of x-rays, and supposedly this is a necessary feature of the device. The electron trajectories are short. But how high is the voltage drop over which the electrons travel? Heaven only knows. Could be astronomical, especially when compared to a conventional x-ray tube. The thing might even be producing extremely hard x-rays (gamma radiation.) The beam of ionizing radiation will launch a narrow corona discharge out of the face of the tube. There will be a high-capacitance connection between the metal Tesla Coil terminal and the plasma (remember that the vacuum is conductive, since it contains an electron cloud.) A purple beam should shoot out of this simple device. One more thing springs to mind: it might be better to use PZT or Barium Titanate instead of glass. This would force a larger potential drop across the vacuum layer. (But perhaps this change might screw things up. Maybe high-temperature ceramic would be a better choice.) The only trouble is that we'd need a high-wattage CW tesla coil to run this beast. Tesla said that the spark-gap type of coil doesn't work very well in this application. I sort of see why: the electron cloud inside the vacuum layer might need constant drive once it forms, and if it was driven in short bursts with long dead-time between, it might quench out between bursts. Or at least the onset might be delayed, so the total on-time would be very small when compared with a CW system. In any case it probably would behave very differently under pulse drive than under CW drive. Pretty cool, eh? A GAMMA-RAY EMITTING CAPACITOR!

Once 1.6 million people of North America has been registered for this program and agreed to be a witness at our demonstrations, BWT will produce 100 units to be demonstrated nationwide. These demonstrations will be held at the same time across America in sports stadiums and large public meeting places." [But wait! It gets better! I especially liked the next two paragraphs:] "In appreciation to these first 1.6 million witnesses, the International Tesla Electric Company (BWT's utility company) will provide up to 26,000 kWh of free electricity per year for as long as ITEC is able to sell the excess electricity on the open market. This is our way of rewarding these witnesses for their faith in God, His technology and us. After the technology has been publicly demonstrated and proven to the world the remaining 14.4 million units planned for distribution to North America will be made available to the public at a projected cost of $2,000.00 per registrant." "The unit is not now for sale and will never be made available for sale but will remain the property of BWT and ITEC.

Some personal thoughts on the matter: While I'm obviously a tad skeptical, who am I to pass judgment on an organization for which I haven't had the chance to accumulate any information on, either pro or con. But assuming, just for a second that this IS genuine, I think BWT's economic plan to maintain ownership of their "units" and "sell" the excess electricity back to the grid, as the company's economic model, is complete and total lunacy. It's as if BWT is attempting to wrestle the control of energy away from OPEC's greedy hands and into their own greedy little hands. The majority of Joe public would not likely end up any better off than they are now. So, only 14.4 million units will ultimately be produced, at two grand each? No more? Yeah, right. Having smelled fresh blood wafting through the air, there would soon be plenty of fledgling companies besides BWT trying to perfect their own "free energy" generators to sell to Joe Public. Where would they find the technolog? Rest assured, they WOULD find it either by hook or crook. Soon, there would be plenty of competitors out in the market offering equivalent "free energy" generators in no time flat. Poof! There goes BWT's economic plan to rule the energy world. Of course, the utility companies wouldn't be happy either way, and I'm sure they wouldn't take it sitting down.

This will be approx. delta P / P. Since the average maximum high pressure region is about 1030 mBar, and the average minimum low pressure region is about 970 mBar, delta P = 60 mBar, thus delta P / P is 60/970 ~ 6%. This is thus also the Carnot efficiency for the conversion of Solar energy into wind energy, actual conversion will be less, not least because not all insolation goes into driving that particular heat engine. Since surface insolation is approx. 116000 Terrawatts (TW) (taking into account an average albedo for the planet of about 30%), 6% of this is about 7000 TW. Total human power consumption is about 14 TW, which is thus about 0.2 % of the wind energy available world wide. IOW there is about 500 times more wind power available than we actually need. Of course most of this is way out to sea, where we can't use it.

Note that lots of "Electrical Experimenter" 1910 era magazine issues are
available for five bucks as PDF files.  The guy at
http://store.g-books.com is selling them.


More weird stuff:  on teslaflyingmachine group on yahoo.com, the author of
"Occult Ether Physics" says that Tesla later built a bulb from a metal
hemisphere but WITHOUT ANY VACUUM BULB.

In thinking about this, I think it's possible.  The bulb will self-pump
its own vacuum during operation, just like Tesla observed in his lecture
on the bulb shown at http://amasci.com/graphics/tesblb1b.jpg. Suppose we
take a solid aluminum hemisphere with a flat polished face.  Put a glass
disk against the flat face and seal the edge and cover the whole thing in
thick insulator.  If this device is then operated with a CW tesla coil, a
high-frequency AC plasma will appear in the thin air film between the
glass plate and the aluminum.  The air will vanish!  There's an "ion pump"
effect which drives the gas ions at high velocity into the metal surface
where they're permanently trapped.  Given enough time, a hard vacuum will
form in that narrow gap.

Now if we have a capacitor-like device with:  a metal plate, a glass
plate, and a vacuum layer between them, and if we drive the metal plate at
extremely high voltage AC of high frequency, then something interesting
should occur.  The voltage drop should mostly appear across the vacuum
layer!!!!  This happens because glass is conductive at high frequencies
(because it contains movable charges.)  The higher the dielectric constant
of the glass, the more AC voltage will be impressed across that vacuum
layer.

Second, a glow discharge will develop in the air surrounding the device,
and this gives a second "conductive plate" as well as a long conductive
"wire," so our vacuum capacitor develops two real terminals.  The
conductive plasma path connects capacitively to ground.  This again should
increase that voltage drop impressed across the thin vacuum layer.

And finally, with that high a voltage on a hard vacuum next to a metal,
the metal will send out electrons via high-field emission.  And on
alternate cycles, the electron cloud will smash into the metal at extreme
high velocity, producing Bremssralung x-rays.  The metal should be highly
polished in order to create a parallel beam of x-rays, and supposedly this
is a necessary feature of the device.  The electron trajectories are
short.  But how high is the voltage drop over which the electrons travel?
Heaven only knows.  Could be astronomical, especially when compared to a
conventional x-ray tube.  The thing might even be producing extremely hard
x-rays (gamma radiation.)

The beam of ionizing radiation will launch a narrow corona discharge out
of the face of the tube.  There will be a high-capacitance connection
between the metal Tesla Coil terminal and the plasma (remember that the
vacuum is conductive, since it contains an electron cloud.)   A purple
beam should shoot out of this simple device.

One more thing springs to mind:  it might be better to use PZT or Barium
Titanate instead of glass.  This would force a larger potential drop
across the vacuum layer.  (But perhaps this change might screw things up.
Maybe high-temperature ceramic would be a better choice.)

The only trouble is that we'd need a high-wattage CW tesla coil to run
this beast.  Tesla said that the spark-gap type of coil doesn't work very
well in this application.  I sort of see why:  the electron cloud inside
the vacuum layer might need constant drive once it forms, and if it was
driven in short bursts with long dead-time between, it might quench out
between bursts.  Or at least the onset might be delayed, so the total
on-time would be very small when compared with a CW system.  In any case
it probably would behave very differently under pulse drive than under CW
drive.

Pretty cool, eh?   A GAMMA-RAY EMITTING CAPACITOR!  No vacuum pumps
needed.

I'm goina try this myself. The water I plan to microwave will be done in a Pyrex glass measuring cup to hopefully eliminate the potential of any kind of leaching contaminants. I'm actually more concerned about how to reduce potential leaching from occurring when boiling water the conventional way, in a pan on a stove. If this is verifiable it will make me think twice about all that micro waved food I've consumed throughout my life. Perhaps it's the cause of my stunted growth! My father was 6'2", My older brother 6 feet. I'm 5'8".

I'm goina try this myself. The water I plan to microwave will be done in a Pyrex glass measuring cup to hopefully eliminate the potential of any kind of leaching contaminants. I'm actually more concerned about how to reduce potential leaching from occurring when boiling water the conventional way, in a pan on a stove. If this is verifiable it will make me think twice about all that micro waved food I've consumed throughout my life. Perhaps it's the cause of my stunted growth!

An interesting point is this: in terms of the inherent energy of the radiation source, thermal boiling is supplying orders of magnitude higher energy photons (and phonons): terahertz as opposed to gigahertz. So - whatever effect is happening to change either the water structure, or to remove "something" [which is not removed by boiling alone] - it is not related to the energy of the photon radiation itself. Of course, the hydroxyl radical is resonant in frequencies around 1665 GHz, and this would be an expected harmonic of an oven - in that the microtron frequency is 2.45 GHz. That would serve to change water structure perhaps - from a more-ordered to a less ordered arrangement - but is that enough to explain what is happening? Jones If Steven Johnson has grandkids, we may be seeing a return of the Hobbits ... For those who are ignorant of that particular sub-species, Frodo sez: Hobbits are between two to four feet (0.6-1.2 m) tall, the average height being three feet six inches (1 m). They tend towards stoutness and have slightly pointed ears. Their feet are furry with leathery soles, so most Hobbits never wear shoes. They are fond of an unadventurous bucolic life of farming, eating, and socializing. Hobbits can sometimes live for up to 130 years (with 100 years average). Pure science at its best, folks.

There are some very large differences between boiling on the stove and boiling in a microwave oven. On a stove the heat is from the bottom, the water is heated more or less evenly (due to convection), and it typically all comes to boiling, throughout the cup. In consequence, as one example, one would expect dissolved air to be driven out of stovetop-boiled water very effectively. Chlorine would also most likely be driven out quite well. Microwave-boiled water is _typically_ boiled by adding heat on the sides and top. Penetration of the microwaves into the water is typically not deep -- perhaps half an inch at best (water's pretty opaque to microwaves). Due to convection, the result is _typically_ that just the top "skin" of the water really boils. The bulk of the cup doesn't get all that hot by the time the top is boiling merrily. One consequence is that a beverage heated in a microwave often seems to "cool off really fast" -- in reality it was never heated all that much. (To avoid that you need to stir the liquid first, so it's moving when the oven is on, and -- I find -- you typically need to microwave it in several short steps, stirring before each.) One further consequence would be that, if the user of the oven isn't careful, the water which was "boiled" in the microwave won't be heated nearly as thoroughly and so it will retain far more dissolved air ... and, quite possibly, more chlorine. So, you don't really need to look for subtle "chi energy" changes to find what may be significant differences between microwave and stovetop boiling. (A series of impromptu experiments with saki heated in a microwave led to some of the above conclusions, by the way. The old fashioned method of putting the saki bottle in a pan of water and popping it onto the range is typically far more satisfactory than the microwave!)

The standard hydroxyl maser frequency is 1.6+ GHz. There are two or three close subfrequencies around 1.6 where the radical is most active. Water itself is resonant at ~22 GHz (the cosmological "water hole"). The standard microwave oven frequency is very close to being 50% greater than 1.6+Ghz for several reasons, but commercial ovens use a closer range. Many ovens are sized so that the most prevalent frequency range ends up being lower harmonics of 2.45 GHz.

Old-fashioned station wagons did much the same job as SUVs. The issue is that SUVs are -- or were until very recently -- classed as trucks by the government as a result of which certain safety, pollution, and gas mileage regulations which apply to "cars" did not apply to "SUV"s. One consequence was that many people who didn't need them bought them anyway, because they were bargains (due to the loopholes they drove through), and it was easy for the manufacturers to drop big V-8's into them without worrying too much about fuel economy. Note well that the much-publicized "rollover problems" of SUVs stemmed directly from their CAFE-dodging birth as modified trucks. That led to their body-on-frame design, in contrast to the "step-down frame" used in cars since time out of mind, and put their center of gravity higher than it would have been otherwise. Personally I loved the two full-sized station wagons I owned in years past. That was long ago and each had a V-8. Our current Subaru "small wagon", OTOH, has a 4 cylinder engine and a lot of plastic parts to make it light enough to perform acceptably with such a "mouse motor". (And it's also 10 years old BTW. I think Subaru has since moved away from their old policy of selling nothing but 4 cylinder engines...) Banning SUVs makes no sense -- it's just going to be another massive distortion of the market. The SUV "problem" was created by one attempt at sledgehammer regulation; fixing it with another blow of the hammer isn't likely to produce a good result either. As I've mentioned previously in this group, I think the CAFE business was misguided from the first and we should have gone with a stiff tax on gas and let the market take care of gas mileage, but since we've got regulation instead of taxation, we should at least see that anything sold as a car -- as SUV's are -- is subject to the regulations Congress intended all cars to be subject to. > -j > > > -----Original Message----- > From: Kyle R.

You probably already surmised that the "chi" part was partly tongue-in-chi-eek... ...yet... there is always the remote possibility that "unfathomables" such as "chi" of "orgone" have some small grounding in physical reality (or "non-physical reality" if you consider 4-space as nonphysical). For instance, even without subscribing to the details of Mills' hydrino theory - it is conceivable (but not likely) that an easily hidden species of "redundant ground state" hydrogen is being continuously created in the solar corona over geologic time - and makes its way to earth in the solar wind - and then accumulates in earth's oceans in parts per billion quantities.... I totally discount the de-gasification explanation, since my plants grow quite well in chlorinated water, and if anything dissolved CO2 would help, not hurt. I also discount leached minerals, since the mineral content of soil is many time higher than what could possible be in the water. ... as I said in the original post..."often mainstream physics can only guess at the answer."

Some thoughts regarding Wikipedia faults.

Yes, I tend to agree with that.

Except for sodium, but boiling would increase the concentration of that, and besides that would hurt, not help, and tend to skew the results the other way. Anyhow, the main point I was trying to make is that it's possible, even likely, that there was a gross physical difference in the way heat was applied to the two samples, including the amount of heat that was applied to the samples. When one notes a large difference in handling of two samples right up front which could plausibly cause the observed different results through conventional means, it seems a little early to speculate as to the effect of some very subtle differences in their handling which should cause at most a small difference in results according to current theory. In other words, until one has rerun the experiment taking pains to see that the two samples really are heated and boiled to very similar degrees, it may not be worth speculating about strange chemical bond (or orgone, or chi, or hydrino) effects due to the microwaves themselves. That's all... > > ... as I said in the original post..."often mainstream physics can > only guess at the answer." That's for sure. For that matter, almost any real-world situation tends to be too complicated to fully address via "mainstream physics" -- one nearly always must address, instead, an idealized, simplified version and then hope the predicted results will be "close enough". > > > From vortex-l-request eskimo.com Wed Oct 4 20:31:24 2006 Received: from ultra5.eskimo.com (localhost [127.0.0.1]) by ultra5.eskimo.com (8.13.6/8.13.4) with ESMTP id k953UAlv012853; Wed, 4 Oct 2006 20:31:05 -0700 Received: (from smartlst localhost) by ultra5.eskimo.com (8.13.6/8.12.10/Submit) id k953KZ8B004316; Wed, 4 Oct 2006 20:20:35 -0700 Resent-Date: Wed, 4 Oct 2006 20:20:35 -0700 X-Authentication-Warning: ultra5.eskimo.com: smartlst set sender to vortex-l-request eskimo.com using -f Message-Id: <6.2.0.14.2.20061004195219.02ae9df0 mail.newenergytimes.com> X-Mailer: QUALCOMM Windows Eudora Version 6.2.0.14 Date: Wed, 04 Oct 2006 19:56:37 -0700 To: vortex-l eskimo.com From: Steven Krivit Subject: Re: [Vo]: Steve Krivit NO LONGER urges participation in Wikipedia In-Reply-To: <200610041914.k94JEaxm086145 mail1.mx.voyager.net> References: <200610041914.k94JEaxm086145 mail1.mx.voyager.net> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii"; format=flowed Resent-Message-ID: Resent-From: vortex-l eskimo.com Reply-To: vortex-l eskimo.com X-Mailing-List: archive/latest/70941 X-Loop: vortex-l eskimo.com List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: List-Unsubscribe: Precedence: list Resent-Sender: vortex-l-request eskimo.com Status: RO X-Status: Well, some of you attempted to intervene, and I applaud you, whoever it was, but it seems the like things are a bit out of control there at the moment.

Consequently, the following is not really a stock pick but more an indication of an area of intense technological interest - and involves a highly promoted stock on the "cutting edge" of the energy sector (rather, the non-petroleum area of that sector). Consider Utah-based Headwaters. [BTW I don't own it, so it may be safe to invest in] http://www.headwaters.com/ This is a company which was founded merely to use "coal waste" but has gone from nothing to a billion in sales in 8 years... but unlike many good-luck stories in the energy industry - those who are just raking in obscene profits - this company has an active R&D pipeline of forward looking alternative energy projects - which are not necessarily tied to fossil fuels. You may have guessed one of them already. The thing that caught my eye - and I am trying to find out more detail - is that they have made a big push into hydrogen peroxide production. What is a big push: half a billion pounds annually has been mentioned. First use: as a chemical intermediary to be used in the manufacture of plastics (urethane for auto upholstery in Korea) but later ?? who knows. [side note: remember the Nauga ] http://nauga.com/history.html There are enticing rumors -- peroxide-powered Kias for the Asian market?? Who knows, as most rumors are created by stock promoters. If you have ever been to the tracks, you are probably familiar with the role of "tout"... and usually you get what you pay for there. Back to touting peroxide, not the stock or the Nauga. The innovative Degussa-Uhde HPPO process, now owned by Headwaters-Korea, uses a hydrogen peroxide and propylene reaction to form propylene oxide with special catalyst supplied by Degussa. A significantly lower capital investment makes this technology more economically viable than the production process currently employed. Yawn. In addition to the current progress being made with HPPO for plastics, however, and the whole point of this posting, is that Degussa and Headwaters are also working on another so-called milestone, namely the catalytic direct synthesis of hydrogen peroxide- they call it DSHP, and act as if it is proprietary - but vortex readers have been hearing about another version of this for some time. The company claims: "The DegussaHeadwaters direct synthesis process will be commercially available starting in 2007. The combination of the HPPO process with DSHP offers additional cost advantages over conventional propylene oxide manufacturing processes." Heck. They call it a milestone and probably have a staff of patent attorneys trying to claim it, but I have posted to vortex earlier on a direct synthesis process that anyone could build at home, based on information in the public domain, and with a few hundred man hours of effort. It is no big secret and remarkably simple- considering the potential- and in fact this whole subject may pose a huge threat to the stability of oil pricing, because it could actually cut in half (and that is no exaggeration) the gasoline consumption of any vehicle. Probably why Headwaters is doing this in Korea. Of course as with all innovative technology "the devil is in the details" and it would take a major cash infusion for me or anyone else to move from promising Rube Goldberg prototype (using kitchen pots) to a real-life prototype which only fails once a week instead of once a day.

It can be quite a letdown when you have worked on a modest but potentially cutting-edge project for months, having scoured the internet and technical libraries, thinking that it is novel and unique - the coveted "eureka moment" put into action ... ...only to find that a large company is about to start-up a real demonstration plant - using what you thought was your nascent idea: at least a version of it. The moralist will say that this falls into the category of "nothing new under the sun" which is another story in itself - and we don't have the bandwidth to get into "memes" today. First of all, the 'eureka moment' in question goes back further than Archimedes - it is Mother-nature's idea - biomimicry at work. And actually, the company in question apparently has not discovered the most efficient (but lower output) version of the process. As it turns out, that demonstration plant should open in Hanau-Wolfgang, Germany 'any day now'. What the company involved has failed to do, however, is to admit that the process is probably amenable to a much smaller turnkey "mini-factory," which can be installed in any auto-owners garage in order to safely and automatically make a cheaper-than-cheap magic oxidizer (or monopropellant) useful for transportation, using only a small amount of grid power. And that is just the beginning. Come to think of it, there is no reason why - if the natural gas supply and prices stabilize, or if the homeowner is in a location where wind or solar energy can be used ... [at least for urban-pioneer-mentality] ... no reason why one cannot co-generate one's own electricity, using half the natural gas which the large power generator must consume to get the same amount of power, and at the same time make all the heat and auto fuel needed, saving tons of out-of-pocket expense. Or alternatively use wind energy to compress air, in order to make HOOH which is stored and expanded in a turbine to make electricity on demand. Here is one good metaphor that few observers may have realized. Hydrogen peroxide is basically a form of 'virtual' (or water-stabilized) compressed air ! By that I mean that if you have compressed air - from any source (and what better way to use wind energy?) - then you can get all the way to molecular HOOH in a few relatively low-tech 'natural' steps, using magnets and catalysts, and never need the steel storage tanks, etc. If made in a medium grade, HOOH is safe (albeit corrosive) - at least as safe as natural gas or propane. Anyway, according to the DegussaHeadwaters Press Release, the company has been developing a "completely new" method of synthesizing hydrogen peroxide for direct use as an oxidant. They failed to mention that the more general process, dubbed DSHP, has already been in "natural" usage for quite a few hundred million years, and that all animal life and much of the plant world on earth has been using it to create cellular energy. The DSHP demonstration plant was scheduled to come on stream in the second quarter of 2006, but was delayed, and may be in operation now. It will be able to produce several thousand metric tons per year of hydrogen peroxide. I suspect that an average family, especially a rural or farm family, could easily make a few tens of tons of DSHP yearly in a mini-factory, enough to provide about half of their net energy consumtion - given that there is a special synergy of using HOOH to combust biofuel. Perfect for the farmer. Given that the raw materials for this 'miracle fuel' are air and water, there is no real limit to how much can be made, especially using wind energy to provide the power needed to compress air. With an adequate supply of compressed air, all the remaining input energy can be taken from a small portion of the output - so this is also a great way to use and store wind energy; following which, wind energy becomes available "on demand" and multiplied in intensity. The DSHP process- the one in the press report - is said to use a "nanocatalyst" developed by Headwaters. They are not saying what it is specifically, but my bet is that it is one of the same ones use by "mother nature" - probably colloidal manganese oxide. BTW and without sounding too cynical towards Headwaters ... almost all colloids are inherently "nano" ... so if your spin-doctor PR woman wishes to wave her verbal magic-wand of techno-lingo over it... just add the 'nano' suffix, wow the assembled masses [and become an instant nan-E ?] Jones From vortex-l-request eskimo.com Fri Oct 6 15:11:36 2006 Received: from ultra5.eskimo.com (localhost [127.0.0.1]) by ultra5.eskimo.com (8.13.6/8.13.4) with ESMTP id k96MAMMq030125; Fri, 6 Oct 2006 15:11:11 -0700 Received: (from smartlst localhost) by ultra5.eskimo.com (8.13.6/8.12.10/Submit) id k96L2xYs024100; Fri, 6 Oct 2006 14:02:59 -0700 Resent-Date: Fri, 6 Oct 2006 14:02:59 -0700 X-Authentication-Warning: ultra5.eskimo.com: smartlst set sender to vortex-l-request eskimo.com using -f X-CVTV-Spamfilter: Scanned X-Virus-Scanned: by Clam Antivirus on mail.cvtv.net X-Virus-Scanned: by McAfee Antivirus on mail.cvtv.net Message-ID: <001a01c6e98a$be3c4f60$0100007f xptower> From: "RC Macaulay" To: Subject: [VO]:Re: More on DSHP Date: Fri, 6 Oct 2006 16:02:20 -0500 MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: multipart/mixed; boundary="----=_NextPart_000_0013_01C6E960.CD9F4FE0" X-Priority: 3 X-MSMail-Priority: Normal X-Mailer: Microsoft Outlook Express 6.00.2900.2869 X-MimeOLE: Produced By Microsoft MimeOLE V6.00.2900.2962 Resent-Message-ID: Resent-From: vortex-l eskimo.com Reply-To: vortex-l eskimo.com X-Mailing-List: archive/latest/70951 X-Loop: vortex-l eskimo.com List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: List-Unsubscribe: Precedence: list Resent-Sender: vortex-l-request eskimo.com Status: O X-Status: This is a multi-part message in MIME format. ------=_NextPart_000_0013_01C6E960.CD9F4FE0 Content-Type: multipart/related; type="multipart/alternative"; boundary="----=_NextPart_001_0014_01C6E960.CD9F4FE0" ------=_NextPart_001_0014_01C6E960.CD9F4FE0 Content-Type: multipart/alternative; boundary="----=_NextPart_002_0015_01C6E960.CD9F4FE0" ------=_NextPart_002_0015_01C6E960.CD9F4FE0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="Windows-1252" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable BlankJones wrote, First of all, the 'eureka moment' in question goes back further=20 than Archimedes - it is Mother-nature's idea - biomimicry at work.=20 Howdy Jones, Surprising how many Texas A&M engineering school undergrads are now = tracking your posts on this subject via my secret code ring location = under my keyboard.

Park Friday, 6 Oct 06 Washington, DC 1. THE PHYSICS PRIZE: LOOKING BACK AT THE EMBRYONIC UNIVERSE. "Are we so fortunate that we live at a time when we can develop the theory of creation?" George Smoot mused in a 1992 press conference http://bobpark.physics.umd.edu/WN92/wn042492.html . It was at the April Meeting of the APS in Washington; Smoot had announced results from the Cosmic Background Explorer mission launched in 1989. The COBE findings appear to confirm the Big Bang theory of the origin of the universe. Smoot, who is at the Lawrence Berkeley Laboratory, and John Mather of the NASA Goddard Space Flight Center, share the 2006 Nobel Prize in Physics for the COBE measurements. It was an exciting time. Sadly, however, it couldn't happen now. NASA has chosen to set aside relatively inexpensive science in favor of "Hollywood" sci fi spectaculars. 2. GIMME AN "A": IMPORTANT PROGRESS MADE IN MANNED SPACE FLIGHT. One small step in data enhancement. After 37 years, the missing "a" turned up. An Australian computer programmer used high-tech software to analyze Neil Armstrong's "One small step for man..." quote. He claims Armstrong said "a man" just like he insisted. I tried to lip-sync it while listening to the tape, but couldn't squeeze the "a" in. I guess that's why I'm not an astronaut. 3. FUEL EFFICIENCY: THE DEMAND IS GROWING FOR SMALLER PEOPLE. According to Holman Jenkins in the Wall Street Journal, Detroit is talking small cars again, following the near collapse of the SUV market amid higher gas prices over the last two years. He points out, however, that the popularity of SUVs and pickups was linked to the obesity epidemic. People need taller cabs so they can fit behind the steering wheel and still reach the pedals. Meanwhile, gas prices have fallen 25% since the peak just two months ago, but they may be at the bottom. Reports that OPEC is preparing to cut production is already starting to raise oil prices. There is a way out. If we keep converting crop land to making ethanol, rising food prices will begin to reduce American waistlines. We just have to stay the course. 4. THE BOMB: THE "AXIS OF EVIL" IS TURNING UP THE PRESSURE. Foreign Ministers are gathering in London for crisis talks on how to deal with Iran's refusal to end its nuclear program, even as North Korea's threatens to conduct a test of a nuclear weapon. 5. NANO: FDA LACKS RESOURCES TO REGULATE THIS NEW TECHNOLOGY. There are 320 nanomaterials products already on the market, including cosmetics, dietary supplements, drugs and medical devices, with 200 more in the pipeline. However, there is no record of anybody being harmed, in spite of Prince Charles' worries about the world being reduced to a mass of "grey goo" by self-replicating nanodevices.

The method aligns a plurality of ferromagnetic nanocrystals to produce an aggregate magnetic field; utilizes an electrical coil in the aggregate magnetic field; and alternately directs and removes radiant energy from the ferromagnetic nanocrystals such that the aggregate magnetic field decays and regenerates to produce a current in the electrical coil. The apparatus includes either a distribution or a stackup of ferro-magnetic nanocrystals and an electrical coil, the combination of the nanocrystals and the electrical coil operating with energy derived from the source of radiant energy.

Burns   August 29, 2006
Method and apparatus for converting energy to electricity

Abstract

A method and apparatus are provided for converting electromagnetic
radiation directly into electricity. The method aligns a plurality of
ferromagnetic nanocrystals to produce an aggregate magnetic field;
utilizes an electrical coil in the aggregate magnetic field; and
alternately directs and removes radiant energy from the ferromagnetic
nanocrystals such that the aggregate magnetic field decays and
regenerates to produce a current in the electrical coil. The apparatus
includes either a distribution or a stackup of ferro-magnetic
nanocrystals and an electrical coil, the combination of the
nanocrystals and the electrical coil operating with energy derived
from the source of radiant energy.

Did any one copy the whole site while it was up be for the luddite revision? And can we get a couple of disputed wiki pages loaded to the way back machine? Every action the luddites take dig a very deep grave for them. Some argued that Goddard and Von Braun were bogus or frauds. These scientist argued that Peenemünde need not be bombed. The chance to kill programe early was was missed. The V2 subsequently killed hundreds. After the V2 was confirmed; one of these scientists retired never returning to a University campus. Another found himself facing empty class rooms. Most were simply never consulted by government again. Ironicly a few wound up working under Von Braun in America after the war.

The objective of the spiral design, patterned after the Wankel engine, is to use an electromagnet to provide the kick needed at the end of the spiral to then repeat the cycle again. No known over-unity systems have yet been achieved using such a design. His personal account of magnets jumping out of their glued positions and glomming together was quite humorous.

I agree that with changes Wikipedia could become a reasonable source of information. But as far as I know the people who run Wikipedia are satisfied and not thinking of implementing changes. What they need is something a bit closer to the traditional academic model of peer review and expertise. Of course this model has often failed in the past, and it has failed drastically for cold fusion, but no set of rules always succeeds in eliminating politics and folly. - Jed From vortex-l-request eskimo.com Mon Oct 9 13:42:02 2006 Received: from ultra5.eskimo.com (localhost [127.0.0.1]) by ultra5.eskimo.com (8.13.6/8.13.4) with ESMTP id k99KeSPw029516; Mon, 9 Oct 2006 13:41:47 -0700 Received: (from smartlst localhost) by ultra5.eskimo.com (8.13.6/8.12.10/Submit) id k99JxlPv006705; Mon, 9 Oct 2006 12:59:47 -0700 Resent-Date: Mon, 9 Oct 2006 12:59:47 -0700 X-Authentication-Warning: ultra5.eskimo.com: smartlst set sender to vortex-l-request eskimo.com using -f Message-ID: <452AAA24.5090509 pobox.com> Date: Mon, 09 Oct 2006 15:59:32 -0400 From: "Stephen A.

Only Congress can declare war and they have not done so. They've given the president a lot of leeway in Iraq but none the less we don't have a full-blown "state of war". Bush can talk all he wants about the "war" on terror but AFAIK the United States is not "in a state of war". > and order it to shut down immediately and retool. I mean close it down > that instant. FDR ordered told them not to sell a single car for the > duration of the war, and he confiscated their entire inventory for > military purposes. FDR had extraordinary powers because Congress had declared war. In the present situation they have not done so, and the president cannot rule by edict (AFAIK). The president can push through a lot of things by snowing Congress and/or cheating but simply issuing straightforward edicts without input from Congress isn't something he's generally allowed to do ... except during a declared war. And it's a good thing, too, because you're not President just now; nor are Lincoln and Roosevelt (either one). Bush is president, and if he had the ability to issue any arbitrary edict and have it become law, no questions asked and no congressional approval needed, I don't think he'd necessarily institute a program you would see entirely eye to eye with.

Note that "fossil fuels" are produced continuously, also. In either case the problem is that the terrestrial production rate is far slower than the current consumption rate. So, biotic or abiotic, there comes a day when there isn't any more, and won't be any again for a long, long time. The interesting conclusion of the abiotic theory is that there may be more large oil fields than expected, because exploration has been guided by the biotic theory and so the oil companies haven't looked everywhere they should.

No president can implement a program, either drastic or pedestrian, without the support of the Congress and the people. As soon as the economy began to recover in 1932 Congress took back its prerogatives and much of the "broad executive power" it ceded in the first 100 days. That was the proper thing to do. One thing for sure if I were president, even for 10 minutes: cold fusion research would be inundated with funding. Probably with too much for its own good. Theodore Roosevelt paid for the first US military test of the Wright brothers airplane with the president's discretionary funds, which was $10 million back in 1908, or about $150 million in today's money. If they still have this level of discretionary funds for the president, I would send $100 million to the cold fusion researchers in the first 10 minutes of my administration. - Jed From vortex-l-request eskimo.com Mon Oct 9 14:22:30 2006 Received: from ultra5.eskimo.com (localhost [127.0.0.1]) by ultra5.eskimo.com (8.13.6/8.13.4) with ESMTP id k99LMIkX029824; Mon, 9 Oct 2006 14:22:18 -0700 Received: (from smartlst localhost) by ultra5.eskimo.com (8.13.6/8.12.10/Submit) id k99LMFtO029800; Mon, 9 Oct 2006 14:22:15 -0700 Resent-Date: Mon, 9 Oct 2006 14:22:15 -0700 X-Authentication-Warning: ultra5.eskimo.com: smartlst set sender to vortex-l-request eskimo.com using -f DomainKey-Signature: a=rsa-sha1; q=dns; c=nofws; s=s1024; d=yahoo.com; h=Message-ID:Received:Date:From:Subject:To:In-Reply-To:MIME-Version:Content-Type:Content-Transfer-Encoding; b=306P1RTblomL26878dYfYmSwX+AfLujjjGJOx+GbIsK5u1epiPBHt9cxyj+/c5MWruSeSo0aYggkV/tXmhWg7BOO1Gh3MkR5mHkbNfKJNBT7+I9tZhGbXTwVpjLoViQ2IASV6aSFYfLc2gaJjhdPVmGSkUia5L8WzD6CT3IO8Bo= ; Message-ID: <20061009212213.83302.qmail web60923.mail.yahoo.com> Date: Mon, 9 Oct 2006 14:22:13 -0700 (PDT) From: Paul Subject: Re: [Vo]: MCE energy could be the smoking gun To: vortex-l eskimo.com In-Reply-To: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=iso-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Resent-Message-ID: Resent-From: vortex-l eskimo.com Reply-To: vortex-l eskimo.com X-Mailing-List: archive/latest/70972 X-Loop: vortex-l eskimo.com List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: List-Unsubscribe: Precedence: list Resent-Sender: vortex-l-request eskimo.com Status: O X-Status: --- Robin van Spaandonk wrote: > In reply to Paul's message of Sun, 8 Oct 2006 > 21:20:20 -0700 > (PDT): > Hi Paul, > [snip] > >> I have a few questions. > >> > >> 1) At the frequencies you envisage using, > wouldn't > >> the heat have > >> difficulty entering/leaving the material?

I apologize. In a nutshell the design collects MCE (Magnetocaloric effect) energy. When the intrinsic electron spins flip the entire atom precesses as it rotates. This rotation/flip gives off radiation, typically in the hundreds of MHz. Unless using specific techniques, the magnetic material absorbs nearly all of this internal radiation. The problem in most magnetic materials including ferrites is the amount of energy released is on the order of thousands to hundreds of thousands times less than amorphous & nanocrystalline material. It's the domain size at no applied field and saturation level that basically determines the amount of radiation. The MCE energy radiated by a 1 cubic inch of ferrite at 100 KHz can be a few hundred watts, but again most of this power is absorbed by the core. For a similar amount of amorphous & nanocrystalline core it can be higher than 15 megawatts. This is an energy exchange process. At 100 KHz there are 400 thousand energy exchanges. That is, 125 joules is exchanged during each phase. So the material heats up by 1 C, then cools down 1 C, etc. The goal is to prevent the magnetic material from absorbing the radiation. One idea is to use material with appreciably low electrical conductivity. In such material there are micro eddy current loops around the avalanches within the magnetic material. So part of the potential magnetic energy is being converted to eddy currents. At the appropriate time the circuit will extract as much of this eddy current as possible. In the previously provided link you may see further details regarding this MCE radiation, where is comes from, what's the cause, and the advisable methods of preventing the core from absorbing the MCE energy. For those wanting a design, here's a quote from the intro of my wiki "I began designing the MEMM over a month ago and took a look at the design and basically said, 'Hey, this is the MEG!' I began to notice the extreme similarities with other devices. They used PM's (permanent magnets) to nearly saturate magnetic material, electrical current in a coil to oppose the PM's field, high di/dt in the correct cycle. Since that time the design has evolved into another form that will hopefully be more effective than the MEG." I would be more than happy to release MEMM designs that have evolved beyond the MEG when everything is 1000% verified. My intentions are to freely publish everything in extreme detail. --- Robin van Spaandonk wrote: > In reply to Paul's message of Sun, 8 Oct 2006 > I have a few questions. > > 1) At the frequencies you envisage using, wouldn't > the heat have > difficulty entering/leaving the material?

I am not sure what COP some of these recent machines are achieving. I received an email from a guy from France said there's a local company that achieved abnormally high efficiencies. Even so, nearly all companies are focusing on Gd alloys, which rely on achieving MCE by means of room temperature Curie point materials, such as Gd. The permeability of Gd at Curie temperature is extremely small, meaning that the most of the MCE energy would come from the battery by means of the coil and not the magnetic material. In such a case COP will always be less than 1.0. My theory predicted that domain size and saturation equate to potential MCE energy. So there are two methods of achieving small domains. 1. Simply heat up the material. At or beyond Curie the magnetic moments are randomly scattered which is essentially domains the size of a few atoms. 2. Use amorphous & nanocrystalline cores, which are extremely efficient. The reason the industry does not use method #2 is because the whole idea is to achieve very cold or hot temperatures. Amorphous & nanocrystalline cores are definitely not suited for this task. Last, but not least, trying to mechanically extract energy from temperature differences is still astronomically inefficient.

[snip] Ah, the penny drops! :) So essentially you are converting random thermal energy into coherent microwave energy by forcing all the atoms to release their energy at one time. Then they absorb more thermal energy, and you convert it to microwaves again. I like the concept. You mention small domains as being advantageous. Could this be attained by reducing the density of the active atoms? IOW could you simply use a compound that is essentially an insulator, with say only one active atom among ten "insulator atoms"? That would appear to result in domains comprising single atoms. The disadvantage is that it would be a bit bulkier, but perhaps lots more efficient, and the insulator is hardly going to bother the microwaves, which should easily pass through and can be collected externally. Apparently Metglas makes a whole variety of products (http://metglas.com/products/page5_1_2.htm), did you have any particular one in mind? (And do any of them meet the description I just gave)?

The balance is lost to "heat", ie background thermal >energy. The point I was trying to make, was based on the concept of *only* producing radio waves, without any background thermal energy. The concept being that in theory at least, I can do work while converting heat into radio waves, because radio waves are longer than heat waves. Practically, this could perhaps be done out in deep space (or the dark side of the moon etc.) where a heat engine could attain close to 100% efficiency, by radiating energy away at the temperature of the microwave background (i.e. 2.7 K). However because the radiated energy is in the form of microwaves, almost all of it can be recaptured and reused. IOW almost all of the energy can be used twice, iso once, and then most of that can be used again, etc. If you add up all the partial re-uses of the same energy, before you finally lose everything, you have done much more work with the initial amount of energy than is normally taken into account when calculating the increase in entropy (which basically assumes that you lose the energy after one pass - see Carnot efficiency). (This is also a concept that Tom Bearden pushes). So if I have a microwave capture and conversion efficiency of 80% (is this a reasonable number?), then in total, I can do 1/1-.8 = 5 joules of work with only one joule of energy. The reason this is currently seen as so outlandish, is that we are used to thinking in terms of energy dissipation and loss. We think in these terms, because we usually "give up" on recovering energy when it reaches the thermal stage. We see "low grade" thermal energy as useless and throw it away. But looked at from the point of wavelength, it is actually "higher grade" than radio waves. Yet we are able to gather and "upgrade" radio waves, into energy of almost any grade, by means of electric conversion. The *only* reason that heat is seen as low grade, is that we don't have a "heat diode". (Well actually we do, they're called solar cells, but these are only about 25% efficient at best). What we really need, is a substance that is a strong radio-emitter when heated (or even just warmed :). Something that might serve the purpose, would be a gas with long molecules, that has ions stuck at the ends. If the molecules are long enough, and able to move freely, then when the plastic is immersed in a magnetic field, thermal motion will agitate the end ions, causing them to accelerate in the magnetic field, and radiate radio waves. Such a substance would absorb heat energy from the environment, and convert it into longer wavelength radio waves that we could then rectify and turn into electric current. As far as conventional entropy calculations are concerned this material would be down-converting radiant energy, so it would be seen as an increase in entropy. > >So Entropy works. If you think entropy failed in some well understood >process, see the first comment. If you think entropy failed in some ou >experiment, see the first comment again and go looking for where the extra >energy came from in the experiment. The bottom line as far as I am concerned, is that the ability to rectify a wave, results in negative entropy, i.e. it gives us the ability to convert random motion into directed motion. Our second "law" was written at a time when energy, once "randomised" could not be recovered. That may now be changing.

The peak wavelength of such radiation is considerably lower for electrically conductive materials such as iron for obvious reasons. Under normal core usages the radiation is incoherent, but if you magnetically flip all the spins at relatively the same time you then have a coherent pulse; i.e., tons of potential energy. Note that in such a case a great deal of the energy is not absorbed by the material because it's in a state of flipping to saturation. > You mention small domains as being > advantageous.

Your idea is somewhat similar to nanocrystalline material. One of your ferromagnetic atoms surround by insulation could be single crystal. A single nanocrystalline material is one large ferromagnetic crystal.

I tried to get a 2714A sample, but they referred me to similar material that had permeability of just 72,000. My second pick would be 2605SA1, which is the material Naudin used.

It reminds me of my other design based on T-rays -> http://www.emwiki.info/T-ray_Energy_Mover_Intro It's based on the fact that an ultra thin 1 square meter sheet radiates ~900 watts of T-rays. I have foolproof design that will generate several hundred watts in the form of a hot and cold plate per square meter. So you could stack hundreds of these per meter high and achieve vast amounts of energy. The only problem is what do you do with the heat & cold besides air conditioning and heating? The PowerChip will supposedly be on the market next year, which could efficiently convert this into electricity. The design is not yet published because I would have to spend some time searching for the appropriate materials. It requires two materials that have highly different refractive indexes between ~ 10 THz to 50 THz. I know glass and germanium would work, but germanium is relatively transparent at those frequencies. Therefore the germanium plate would have to be very thick, but that would be ridiculously expensive. Sterling's lawyer friend recommended that I not publish the design until I know the materials. You mention the second law of thermodynamics might be changing. I would have to agree, but the physics community will probably just append to its description rather than admit error. Are you familiar with the Dew Point experiment? http://www.emwiki.info/T-ray_Energy_Mover_Dew_Point_Exp Have you thought of a process to convert thermal to radio waves?

I suspect that if you place the entire device in a cavity designed to resonate at the emitted frequency, then the resultant standing waves in the cavity will help cohere the microwave emission. This is analogous to he electron bunching effect in magnetrons. Essentially, you have a "forced" oscillation, where the forcing energy is supplied by the device rather than from an external source. BTW, I think that if you have "single atom domains", you will find that all the domains are effectively the same size, and consequently that should all emit at a single frequency (provided that the magnetic field is uniform across the device), or have I misunderstood? > Note that in such a case a great deal of the energy >is not absorbed by the material because it's in a >state of flipping to saturation. Furthermore, by tapping the microwave radiation and rectifying it, you are "sucking" it out as it were. Not exactly true, but what you normally have is an equilibrium where energy is being both emitted and absorbed. By attaching a "one way valve" to the energy flow, you ensure that the equilibrium constantly shifts in the direction of outflow. It's also what you are trying to do by operating near saturation. In fact before the invention of diodes magnetic saturation was widely used as a crude means of rectification. > > > >> You mention small domains as being >> advantageous.

However I don't see much use (yet), for 50 MW in the average home, so a drop in power output to say 10 kW shouldn't really be a major problem. What you really need to look at is power density, i.e. power/kg of mass, then compare that to other power sources such as e.g. an internal combustion engine. Since you are going to be processing considerable power, your device will either get very cold very quickly, or you need to ensure rapid transport of heat to it. The latter is relatively easily done by making the active component of your device a flat plate, and binding it to a thin metal plate which forms one side of a water pipe. Then water flowing through the pipe can carry heat to the device. (This has the advantage of also providing chilled water for air conditioning in the summer). The pipe needs to constructed from a metal that won't interfere with the operation of the device (copper?). However the device itself also would ideally be a good thermal conductor, while at the same time being a good electrical insulator. The only substance I know, that comes close is BeO. (highly toxic BTW). Regards, Robin van Spaandonk http://users.bigpond.net.au/rvanspaa/ Competition provides the motivation, Cooperation provides the means.

No. As I suggested, trace amounts of radioactive material migrate out via the instrument leads. See: http://www.slate.com/id/2151214/nav/tap2/ The New York Times reports that small underground nuclear explosions actually tend to release a little more radioactive material. QUOTES: Blast May Be Only a Partial Success, Experts Say It will probably take several days to determine with confidence if the explosion was in fact nuclear, the official said. He added that so far, sensors had not detected radiation leaking from the blast site. But federal and private experts said it seemed unlikely that the North Koreans had faked an underground nuclear blast with a large pile of conventional high explosives. . . . federal and private analysts said, the United States has long had spy satellites observing the North Korean site and appears to have found no signs of chemical explosives being unloaded. "It's difficult to fake it when you know people are looking down on you," said Dr. Richards of Columbia. "The execution of a chemical explosion would be hard to hide." Dr. Coyle, the former director of nuclear testing at Livermore, said small tests were more likely to leak radioactivity than large ones, because the intense heat and gigantic shock waves of bigger blasts tended to melt and pulverize nearby rock into impregnable barriers. - Jed From vortex-l-request eskimo.com Tue Oct 10 07:00:20 2006 Received: from ultra5.eskimo.com (localhost [127.0.0.1]) by ultra5.eskimo.com (8.13.6/8.13.4) with ESMTP id k9AE02wJ009198; Tue, 10 Oct 2006 07:00:07 -0700 Received: (from smartlst localhost) by ultra5.eskimo.com (8.13.6/8.12.10/Submit) id k9ADpSiJ003574; Tue, 10 Oct 2006 06:51:28 -0700 Resent-Date: Tue, 10 Oct 2006 06:51:28 -0700 X-Authentication-Warning: ultra5.eskimo.com: smartlst set sender to vortex-l-request eskimo.com using -f X-CVTV-Spamfilter: Scanned X-Virus-Scanned: by Clam Antivirus on mail.cvtv.net X-Virus-Scanned: by McAfee Antivirus on mail.cvtv.net Message-ID: <001201c6ec73$2418b130$75027841 xptower> From: "RC Macaulay" To: Subject: [VO]:Re: MCE energy could be the smoking gun Date: Tue, 10 Oct 2006 08:51:08 -0500 MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: multipart/related; boundary="----=_NextPart_000_000E_01C6EC49.3AAB4B30"; type="multipart/alternative" X-Priority: 3 X-MSMail-Priority: Normal X-Mailer: Microsoft Outlook Express 6.00.2900.2869 X-MimeOLE: Produced By Microsoft MimeOLE V6.00.2900.2962 Resent-Message-ID: Resent-From: vortex-l eskimo.com Reply-To: vortex-l eskimo.com X-Mailing-List: archive/latest/70979 X-Loop: vortex-l eskimo.com List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: List-Unsubscribe: Precedence: list Resent-Sender: vortex-l-request eskimo.com Status: O X-Status: This is a multi-part message in MIME format. ------=_NextPart_000_000E_01C6EC49.3AAB4B30 Content-Type: multipart/alternative; boundary="----=_NextPart_001_000F_01C6EC49.3AACD1D0" ------=_NextPart_001_000F_01C6EC49.3AACD1D0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="Windows-1252" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable BlankRobin wrote, >I suspect that if you place the entire device in a cavity designed to resonate at the emitted frequency, then the resultant standing waves in the cavity will help cohere the microwave emission.

It is my contention that the unusual properties of HOOH may be the "expediting technology" for enhancing many alternative energy schemes. Apologies to readers who are not convinced of this yet, for usurping forum bandwidth; but for whatever reason, the October postings to vortex have dwindled anyway, so consider this as "light-weight" filler, if nothing else. The main alternative energy technology for which peroxide may be a key future building block (synergistically) is *wind energy.* HOOH provides an ideal intermediate storage (liquid) and enhancement step for windmills, especially in areas without a "grid infrastructure". The added complexity of a "systems approach" is worth it. More on that in a later post. The other day, information was also posted here (with no subject line, despite repeated attempts so it is not searchable in the archives) about the broad subject of "entropic explosion" which is an "explosion without heat." About as close to a "free energy" anomaly as mainstream science admits to, these days (that situation is soon to change). The following is similar to entropic explosion. It is not a subset of that topic, but there are cross-connections. This general process is called "chemi-luminescence" - which is the strong emission of light, with or without heat. One could call this super high efficiency subset of chemiluminescence: the "firefly effect" and YES, the human version is based on biomimicry. If you don't know what "glow sticks" are, and especially with Halloween coming up, here is a site that explains the "supernatural magic" of this device, but actually the technology behind light-sticks is simple: http://science.howstuffworks.com/light-stick.htm Glow sticks are based on a chemical process which releases copious light, and for surprisingly long time-spans, but produce negligible heat. This is sometimes referred to as "cold light" to contrast it with incandescent light - that which is associated with combustion, fire, or high temperature sources like bulb filaments. There are three chemicals involved, two of which are kept separated by a breakable barrier. One is a phenyl oxalate ester, which is mixed with a dye. The other separated reaction chemical is that pivotal chemical: hydrogen peroxide. The dye is what actually releases the light, after heatless stimulation. When you break the barrier keeping the chemicals apart, the phenyl oxalate ester and peroxide mix to produce an unstable compound which then transfers its chemical energy to the dye. The dye is the type used in posters that glow in the ultraviolet, the blacklight spectrum made famous to many Vo's by Mills' hydrino, but instead - here the glow energy comes from the unstable compound rather than from ultraviolet light. Ultraviolet light is in fact much higher energy light than normal visible light - so the natural expectation is that copious heat "should be" involved. The common type of UV laser in fact produces about 50 units of waste heat for every unit-equivalent of light. Anyway, pick up a couple of glow ticks for the grand-kids and have yourself an enlightened Halloween, for a change. With the flurry of recent OU announcements, perhaps this one will be considered by future historians to be a hallowed event, at least when the chapter on alternative-energy is being written.

If we could someone find magnetic material that worked in the THz region we could have an excellent free energy device thus converting ambient energy into THz electricity with a DC component. Of course it's the DC component that's of interest. That would be some material though as the highest frequency cores are in the GHz, correct?

Yes, lol, but it would an interesting display watching 50 MW dissipate across a coil wrapped around such a small core. I'd imagine the UHF pulse alone would knock out half Los Angeles. Considering the heat capacity 470 J/Kg/K it would lower the cores temperature to absolute zero in 360us time _if_ we were to extract 50 MW of power from the 1 cubic inch of material. Although obviously heat capacity is not linear to such extreme temperatures since according to Einstein's equation, E=mc^2, there's enough energy in one cubic inch of such material to supply 50 MW for 7.4 years. Such low temperatures are not realistic for core materials. I agree though, 10 kW is more realistic, and quite frankly I would be ecstatic for an _initial_ 10 watts over input.

This could possible work for the MEMM core since it would most likely have nano size domains. The idea of heating iron to molten level does not sound attractive, and then cooling it within microseconds to achieve the amorphous stage. Yikes! Any ideas? Supposedly the only method to achieve such rapid cooling is by limiting the iron to a thin wire, which is fine, and then perhaps rapidly pouring some cold liquid over the iron. Another idea is to make amorphous iron powder. This could be mixed with a binder to make an amorphous iron powder core. It might be easier to create such powder iron since you can don't have to worry about cracking the iron during the flash cooling stage. This would allow you to basically hit the molten iron with a high power flow of cold liquid. Regardless then resulting iron would have to pure, like 99.9+% pure. Perhaps another problem is preventing the liquid from appreciably reacting with the iron. Is this realistic? Best to just buy the amorphous powder iron, but where? Thanks for any input.

So, biotic or abiotic, there comes a day when there isn't any more, and won't be any again for a long, long time. The interesting conclusion of the abiotic theory is that there may be more large oil fields than expected, because exploration has been guided by the biotic theory and so the oil companies haven't looked everywhere they should. But that still doesn't translate into anything that allows one to conclude oil is inexhaustible at current use rates. leaking pen wrote: first off, how does this give evidence of an abiotic source' I'm missing something. second, even if true, its formed very very slowly. meaning we WILL run out.

Known as the Jack Field, the reserve, some 270 miles southwest of New Orleans, is estimated to hold as much as 15 billion barrels of oil. Authors Jerome R. Corsi and Craig R. Smith say the giant find validates the key thesis of their book, "Black Gold Stranglehold: The Myth of Scarcity and the Politics of Oil ," that oil did not come from the remains of ancient plant and animal life but is made naturally by the Earth. "We have always rejected the theories that oil and natural gas are biological products," Corsi told WND. "Chevron's find in the Gulf of Mexico validates our argument that the Gulf is a huge resource for finding oil and natural gas." The Wall Street Journal reports today the find could boost the nation's current reserves of 29.3 billion barrels by as much as 50 percent ... Corsi and Smith note the power of the abiotic theory: "Could it be that oil is abundant, nearly an inexhaustible resource, if only we drill deep enough'" Prior to the Jack Field discovery, the largest U.S. oil find in the Gulf of Mexico has been the Thunder Horse , about 125 miles southeast of New Orleans. British Petroleum holds a 75-percent interest with ExxonMobil to develop the Thunder Horse. This field, too, is deep-earth oil, with BP and ExxonMobil finding oil under one mile of water and five miles below the seabed. Scientists believe Mexico's richest oil field complex was created when the prehistoric, massive Chicxulub meteor impacted the Earth. "Could it be that the Chicxulub meteor deeply fractured the entire bedrock under the Gulf of Mexico'" Corsi asked in a WND interview. "If so, we might find abundant oil wherever we look as we begin to explore the deeper waters of the Gulf." Earlier this year, Cuba announced plans to hire the communist Chinese to drill for oil some 45 miles off the shores of Florida. This move was made possible by the 1977 agreement under President Jimmy Carter that created for Cuba an "Exclusive Economic Zone" extending from the country's western tip to the north, virtually to Key West, Fla. "If Cuba and communist China believe they too can find oil in the Gulf, we should pull out all stops," argues Smith. "We may be able to bring the price of gasoline down under two dollars a gallon if oil can be found in these huge quantities within our territorial waters. It's crazy to think we should be dependent on foreign oil when we've made Mexico our number two supplier of oil with the reserves Mexico has found in the Gulf." "Thomas Gold should feel vindicated today," Corsi added, referring to the Cornell University astronomer who in 1998 published "The Deep Hot Biosphere: The Myth of Fossil Fuels," a book that also challenged the conventional wisdom on the origin of oil ... ------------------ http://www.searchanddiscovery.net/documents/abstracts/2005research_calgary/abstracts/extended/hunt/hunt.htm Hydrides and Anhydrides C.

(403)-244-3341, Fax (403) 244-2834 E-mail: archeanc telusplanet.net Hydrogen being 90% or more of all matter in the Universe, must have been abundantly present in the formation of the early earth. The consensus among scientists has been that most primordial hydrogen was expelled as the earth accreted. New evidence challenges the consensus raises questions as to the validity of other long-held geological concepts. The new evidence involves the behavior of hydrogen nucleii, which at pressures characteristic of mantle depths have shed their electrons and inject themselves inside the first electron rings of metal atoms. Thus sequestered within the earth, hydrogen may comprise as much as 30-40 percent of total earth mass today. Hydrogen penetration into metals was demonstrated by Vladimir N. Larin, a geologist, whose project over the last 34 years has been research in the USSR and FSU on sources of natural hydrogen. Three major effects result from the phenomenon: (1) transmutation, (2) densification, and (3) fluidization ... >From this data it is easily shown that the excess core and mantle density above that of the crust can be attributed to injected hydrogen, and the density differences between inner core, outer core, and lower mantle can be treated as phase effects. In this scenario the idea of an iron core is superfluous. V.N. Larin demonstrated the fluidity of titanium hydride for this writer by setting a ruby in plasticized titanium intermetal. Under reduced pressure the hydrogen bled off, allowing the metal to recrystallize and leave the ruby set firmly in metallic titanium. The potassium and titanium behaviors are not unique. All elements but noble gases form hydrides, some readily, others not so readily. Thus, a mixture of non-metal hydrides and fluidic intermetals that comprised the interior of the primordial earth should undergo fractionation and coalescense of components on the basis of mobility and density differences. Non-metal hydrides, H2O, NH3, H2S, CH4, that were present during accretion of the earth would have been the first to go. Expelled, they accumulated as atmosphere and hydrosphere. Solar wind bombardment and dissociation of non-metal hydrides allowed hydrogen to escape into space. This left residual oxygen and nitrogen to build up in the atmosphere, which then enabled a transformation in the biosphere. Replacement of the early Archean biota of hydrogen-tolerant prokaryotes by oxygen-tolerant eukaryotes in the late Archean is clear evidence of the conversion of the atmosphere at that time. Intermetal hydride plumes would follow. Coalescing on the bases of differential fluidity and density, viscous intermetal plumes rise buoyantly through the mantle, perhaps lubricated by hydrides of the earth's third most abundant element, the transition element, silicon. Rising into regimes of reduced pressure the intermetals dissociate or oxidize, creating crust in the forms of rock-forming minerals and metal ores. The hydrides of silicon, the silanes (SiH4, Si2H6, Si3H8, Si4H10, etc.) are of special interest. Gases at standard conditions, they react vigorously with water, producing quartz, volcanic ash, and rock-forming minerals, depending on depth, pressure and the admixture of other metal hydrides. The high mobility of silane explains the mode of transfer of silicon from the interior to the oxidic crust. Crust then is the residue after silane and intermetal oxidation and release of hydrogen, which eventually escapes into space. Carbon, the sister element of silicon, is a lesser component of earth makeup, but probably is prominent in the form of carbides in the interior. Its primary hydride form, methane (CH4), although energy-laden like silane, behaves quite differently in three important contrasting ways. First, it does not react with water; second, its combustion products are only gases; and third, it enables the biosphere. Where silane is stalled in the crust by reacting with water, methane and hydrogen released by its partial oxidation proceed upward in fracture pathways. Methane and hydrogen seep into deep, shield mines and through porous members of sedimentary series. Both are major constituents of fluid inclusions in sub-oceanic basalts as well as in shield granites. Their migration is differentially impeded due to their different molecular sizes. Methane may be trapped temporarily, while hydrogen escapes. Both enter the atmosphere worldwide on a large scale. Thus the hydridic earth image comprises a mobile inner geosphere of highly-reduced, dense, intermetals and carbides, an outer geosphere of oxidic rock that has accumulated incrementally through geological time, and a transient liquid-gas envelope. The image implies a core that is neither iron nor very hot, because the heat source for endogeny is primarily not primordial heat but the chemical energy released in the upper mantle and lower crust, near the crust-mantle boundary by hydride oxidation. Hydrocarbons other than methane are partially oxidized carbon forms, and thus unlikely to occur in any form but methane in the earth's interior where extreme reducing conditions prevail. When methane rises to outer crust levels from the interior, its chemical energy is available to metabolize bacteria and archaea that live there in total darkness at elevated temperatures. They get that energy by stripping hydrogen from the methane and oxidizing it metabolically. When bacteria and archaea strip hydrogen from methane, they create 'anhydrides' of methane, CH3, CH2, etc. Two CH3s combine to make C2H6, ethane; two CH3s and one CH2 make C3H8, propane, etc. The process is known on the surface, where outcrops of petroliferous strata sometimes are sealed by bacterially produced tar seals behind which live oil has accumulated. In this case, bacteria have stripped hydrogen from live oil, rendering it immobile. Anhydride theory merely extrapolates the process backward to explain stripping of methane, the lowest carbon numbered hydrocarbon. Petroleum can be interpreted as degenerated methane, a product of the biosphere. Petroleum produced by bacterial stripping of methane is, a mixture of anhydrides of methane, an organic product produced from inorganic methane. Coal and oil shales are also anhydride products. In peat and kerogen-rich shales, partially oxidized carbon is present that has lost electrons and thus carries positive charges. By contrast, the carbon in methane that effuses from the highly reduced earth interior has acquired electrons and is negatively charged. Opposite charges cause capture of effusing methane by peat and kerogen. Once captured, methane is stripped progressively of its hydrogen by bacteria and archaea that naturally occur in the peat and kerogen. The terminal anhydride, pure carbon, the main component of the purest coals and asphaltites, and protein molecules (porphyrins and others) that are found in petroleum and coal are molecular residues of organic origin. The fact that coal and oil shales have more carbon and hydrogen than their peat and fossil predecessors is clear evidence that fossils cannot fully explain their origins. These high carbon and hydrogen contents of oil shales and coals require abiogenic additions, whereas organic molecules require organic provenance. Methane and petroleum found in coal seams and organic shales should be seen as evidence of methane capture, not methane generation. The topology of petroleum occurrence is a further defeat for the argument in favour of either an exclusively organic or exclusively abiogenic origin for petroleum. If oil were either rising from primordial sources in the earth's interior or created in 'oil windows' by catagenesis, the more mobile fractions would escape from the depths and be found more abundantly near the surface and less mobile fractions, low gravity oils, would be present at depth. Exactly the opposite is the norm. Methane gas, the most mobile hydrocarbon, is more abundant with depth, worldwide; and tars, the least mobile, are most abundant at and near the surface. Working backwards through the above points, we can say that: Topologies of hydrocarbon occurrences indicate that methane effuses from the interior, not petroleum; that Topologies of hydrocarbon occurrences indicate that low-gravity oil is not generated at depth in oil windows; that Methane beneficiates fossiliferous shales and peat deposits, creating oil shales and coal. Oil shales and coal do not generate methane; methane generates oil shales and coal; that Bacteria and archaea in the outer crust strip hydrogen from methane progressively through condensates, high gravity oil, and low gravity oil, to bitumens; that Hydrides of silicon and carbon along with intermetals rise into crustal levels where dissociation and oxidation liberate the heat of endogeny and deposit rock-forming minerals, and metal deposits, leaving only methane and hydrogen to effuse into the atmosphere; that Nonmetal hydrides escaping from the interior of the primordial earth created a reducing atmosphere that was changed over to oxygen-rich by the loss of hydrogen to space; and that The discovery that hydrogen nuclei under pressure penetrate atomic shells of metals, transmuting the metals to intermetals, densifying them, and fluidizing them, creates an entirely new geological picture of the earth's interior, of endogeny, and of the mode by which the crust was created.

Of course, this assumes the Chinese are really upset. Having NK being a nuclear power to distract attention from what the Chinese are doing would be a clever ploy.

The goal is to find inexpensive pure iron or an inexpensive process of creating it. The goal is to publicly release the exact detailed build instructions of the "smoking gun." A lot of people cannot afford $200 for a single magnetic core. Realistically such a core, at least during initial designs, would generate perhaps up to 100 watts, and even that is a feat. To achieve 1 KW could require 10 such cores ($2000), which IMHO is way too expensive. Don't get me wrong, if that's the last option then so fine. I'm wondering what permeability 98.8% pure iron would have. I know extremely pure iron can have permeability near 1 million.

China also is a rather extreme proponent of non-interference in the domestic affairs of other countries. That's been proposed as part of the reason that China (and Russia) seem to oppose all action to stop Iran from building their own nukes. (The fact that Iran is in Russia's back yard has had me scratching my head over that one -- if I lived in Russia I sure wouldn't want Iran to have nuclear arms, yet Putin doesn't give any indication of caring about the issue.)

You might want to take that up with a few Tibetans. I don't believe the Taiwanese are any happier about China's "meddling" either. BTW, our family lived in Taiwan for three years back in the early 60's, when ousted leader Chiang Kai-shek, leader of the Nationalist party who unceremoniously skedaddled over to Taiwan, (and who also in the process removed the indigenous government), still had illusions of grandeur of reclaiming the motherland.

We are rapidly exhausting Earth's sources of fossil fuels and there is a desperate need for an energy alternative. A perennial favourite is solar power, but its utilization could come at an enormous cost to future generations. Solar panels are already draining our sun of vital energy. As more panels are set up, more solar energy is removed from future generations. Without realizing it, the lifetime of our life-giving star is being threatened by the careless absorption of precious solar radiation. And if every Joe American lined his roof with solar panels, we'd suck the energy out of the sun faster than college freshmen on a free beer keg. That energy model just isn't sustainable. Arrays of solar panels will only contribute to the depletion of the sun's energy. And it's getting worse. Automobile producers are already developing hybrid vehicles that will capture the sun's rays to power our cars, trucks, and SUVs. Scientists and researchers continue to find new ways to harness the sun's rays and improve the efficiency of solar-powered cells. But what thought is being put into the long-term effects of this excessive solar power use? Every day, solar energy is frittered away on solar-powered flashlights, solar-powered garden lanterns, and even solar-powered tanning machines--and we presume that there is a limitless supply of sunshine to power these devices. But at the present rate of consumption, solar energy reserves will most certainly be depleted a couple billion years sooner than expected, and then we'll all be sitting in the dark, wondering how we're going to run our stereos, hairdryers, and Vitamix machines. Unfortunately, there aren't any solar conservation movements to communicate the necessity to protect and ration the burning of the sun's not-so-everlasting power. The heat should be on to find other viable sources of energy, or at the very least, slow down our solar energy consumption so that our sun can continue to grow our food, light our planet, and heat our pools for many years to come. Solar energy is a clean alternative to oil, coal, and natural gas, but we must realize that there are limits. If we tap into the sun's radiation with our eyes closed, we risk the untimely depletion of its reserves, and then we'll all be sorry.

The radiation is typically in the hundreds of MHz (not GHz) for non-electrical materials and considerably lower in frequency for electrically conductive materials such as iron. In electrically conductive materials the free electrons act as inductance, which slows down the electrons flip rate. So in iron, depending on purity, the peak radiation frequency ranges from KHz to MHz, not hundreds of MHz let alone GHz. Even if it were microwaves (GHz), which for the most part the radiation is not, the metal would act as a high refractive index. In other words, the metal would slow down the radiation velocity. Furthermore, most of the radiation would internally reflect off the cores outer walls. Note that in microwave ovens the metal reflects the radiation-- only a small amount is absorbed. This process of slowing down the radiation and reflecting is understood when studying electrodynamics in detail. Also you can see this effect in electrodynamic computer simulations. The end result would be most of the radiation reflecting internally, which would cause heat. Here's a list of methods to decrease the magnetic materials ability to absorb the radiation in addition to increasing the potential radiation. 1. Use materials with smallest domains at operating temperatures-- amorphous and nanocrystalline cores. The smaller the domain the more potential energy. When times permit I would like to precisely demonstrate this in a step-by-step process using conventional physics. 2. The thinner the core the better! Your goal is to prevent the core from absorbing the MCE radiation. Presently I am pondering upon a design that uses long thin magnetic electrically conductive wires. The thin wire would be the core and coil. 3. High saturation materials. A fully saturated core prevents the intrinsic electron spins from absorbing the magnetocaloric energy. Of course a fully saturated core is useless, but no realistic coil can fully saturate magnetic material. The core should be close to saturation. 4. Unless you use filters you'll need to flip the process so you can collect the energy during the cores radiating cycle. You do this with a permanent magnet. Also the PM helps saturate the core, but you don't want to fully saturate it. 5. The field from your coil will oppose the PM's field. So you slowly increase your coil current to decrease the cores net applied field and then you want to drop the current or reverse the current as quickly as possible (high di/dt). High di/dt causes a higher percentage of the electron spins to flip simultaneously, which in turn greatly reduces the cores ability to absorb MCE energy, which allows more of the energy to escape the core. In short, ultra high di/dt lowers the effective permeability, which in turn prevents the core from absorbing a great deal of the MCE energy, which your circuit can then properly absorb. If the core material has low electrical resistivity then the Eddy currents will absorb the radiating energy and then with precise timing you can rob a certain percentage of the Eddy currents energy.

But until recently the basic spin-process was seldom considered as a substitute for the more energy-intensive enrichment processes like distillation. That can change with three types of spin-hybrids. 1) spin plus filtration (or osmosis) 2) spin plus magnetization (or e-field polarization) 3) spin plus a "binder" In general, the energy required to spin-separate a liquid into components (like whole milk) ranges from less than one percent to ten percent of what would be required to distill. Even so-called ultra-centrifugation is usually only a fraction. Some recent success in finding a combinatory enrichment technique - which is efficient in the enrichment of peroxide from dilute mixtures (which will be reported on later) got me to thinking about the possibility of using something similar to this for biofuels - even though the density gradient is much less accommodating. The multiple goals of this would be to avoid distillation, expedite continuous (non-batch) fermentation, and thereby to enrich directly from a fermenting mash in one step - returning the dilatants immediately to a continuous - not a batch - process. The first use would be "on the farm." A farmer with as little as 20 acres should be able to devote a tenth of that to making and refining all of the tractor fuel, home heating fuel and transportation fuel needed, by growing and cutting grass or cane. There have been objections voiced that this would somehow "deplete the soil" but there are parts of the world where farm-land has been intensively farmed by humans for 6000 years and is still productive. Even fully depleted-soil (watered sand) will grow grass or cane. It is a hollow argument. Given that single-celled yeasts and engineered bacteria are now available to ferment cellulose biowaste (hay) quickly; then all that is needed for energy self-sufficiency is to convert the same into diesel-like methyl and ethyl esters, with mixed alcohols and up to 15% water - but without using lots of extra energy to boil it. Perhaps it is time to look at schemes to enrich the *mixed biofuel content* of a "mash" to a level which is burnable in an unmodified ICE [using a compact "turnkey" machine] and which does not require distillation. There are a number of advanced proposals out there, but the most exciting is one which can enrich in both biodiesel esters and ethanol at the same time. Biodiesel and ethanol are far from mutually exclusive and can even be "brewed" in the same mash synergistically and then enriched together and burned in an unmodified diesel engine (in theory). The tornado-like "vortex" itself, which gives this forum a certain unique "personality" (screwy ?) is one basic centrifugation method, and possessing a possible advantage over 2-D spin-only. That advantage being a spin-elutriation method using a indigenous binder. "Elutriation" is the separation of (finer or lighter) particles or colloids from coarser or heavier particles, or from a liquid, often by means of an upward and outward stream of fluid so that the lighter particles are carried upward and then "slagged". It can be combined with centrifugation, especially when a colloidal "binder" is used. The binder, if it is colloidal, can remain in the mixed fuel and be burned. A binder is a reagent which will favor attachment to one molecule over another by as much as million-fold, and many of them are hydrophobic - and thus can dramatically aid the de-watering effort - in a hybrid process. That binder can, in theory be made in situ from the very yeast which accomplishes the fermentation, by ultrasonic or other pulverization methods. The first large-scale use of spin-centrifugation was non-military, and a bit less mundane than uranium enrichment. Historically, the first centrifuge seems to have been built late in the last century by de Laval, a Swedish engineer whose design is still used chiefly for cream-separation from whole milk (cream being lighter). The "gold-panning" technique is part of an older spin-elutriation lineage, along with "winnowing" but wasn't industrialized until later. That one also has elements of elutriation - as does milk-cream and the mixed biofuel scheme envisioned here. For getting the active heavy metal isotopes for the bomb which ended WWII, it was necessary to enrich uranium in its fissile-isotope, which is found in nature in only seven parts per thousand. The bulk of that separation was done in a gas centrifuge process in which a U-fluoride gas is rotated at high speed in a porous tube, so that the slightly more massive molecules - uranium-238 concentrate near the outer edge and are expelled preferentially while the lighter molecules of U235 are concentrated near the axis - but slowly, very slowly. Several hundred stages of centrifugation are needed to effect the required degree of enrichment, since we are dealing with a mass/density (specific gravity) difference of only three parts per 292 (counting the fluorine) - or about 1 percent. The number of stages in any enrichment cascade is directly related to the mass/density variability and other factors. Cream is actually not very different in density from whole milk, but is not completely miscible and will separate on its own - so it is easier - and that is a direct analogy with the hybrid biofuel process envisioned - since the fat (or binder) is hydrophobic. Centrifugation is based somewhat on Stoke's Law in which the particle "sedimentation velocity" increases with increasing diameter of the chamber, increasing difference in density between the two phases and decreasing viscosity of the continuous phase. There is zero "sedimentation" however, in a two part miscible liquid like water and alcohol, but that can be changed with a binder which "prefers" alcohol - and is also combustible in itself.

For ages, it has been possible to easily separate and enrich miscible liquids into "rough" components - or even to enrich atomic elements isotopically using only spin - simple centrifugal methods. But until recently the basic spin-process was seldom considered as a substitute for the more energy-intensive enrichment processes like distillation. That can change with three types of spin-hybrids. 1) spin plus filtration (or osmosis) 2) spin plus magnetization (or e-field polarization) 3) spin plus a "binder" In general, the energy required to spin-separate a liquid into components (like whole milk) ranges from less than one percent to ten percent of what would be required to distill. Even so-called ultra-centrifugation is usually only a fraction. Some recent success in finding a combinatory enrichment technique - which is efficient in the enrichment of peroxide from dilute mixtures (which will be reported on later) got me to thinking about the possibility of using something similar to this for biofuels - even though the density gradient is much less accommodating. The multiple goals of this would be to avoid distillation, expedite continuous (non-batch) fermentation, and thereby to enrich directly from a fermenting mash in one step - returning the dilatants immediately to a continuous - not a batch - process. The first use would be "on the farm." A farmer with as little as 20 acres should be able to devote a tenth of that to making and refining all of the tractor fuel, home heating fuel and transportation fuel needed, by growing and cutting grass or cane. There have been objections voiced that this would somehow "deplete the soil" but there are parts of the world where farm-land has been intensively farmed by humans for 6000 years and is still productive. Even fully depleted-soil (watered sand) will grow grass or cane. It is a hollow argument. Given that single-celled yeasts and engineered bacteria are now available to ferment cellulose biowaste (hay) quickly; then all that is needed for energy self-sufficiency is to convert the same into diesel-like methyl and ethyl esters, with mixed alcohols and up to 15% water - but without using lots of extra energy to boil it. Perhaps it is time to look at schemes to enrich the *mixed biofuel content* of a "mash" to a level which is burnable in an unmodified ICE [using a compact "turnkey" machine] and which does not require distillation. There are a number of advanced proposals out there, but the most exciting is one which can enrich in both biodiesel esters and ethanol at the same time. Biodiesel and ethanol are far from mutually exclusive and can even be "brewed" in the same mash synergistically and then enriched together and burned in an unmodified diesel engine (in theory). The tornado-like "vortex" itself, which gives this forum a certain unique "personality" (screwy ?) is one basic centrifugation method, and possessing a possible advantage over 2-D spin-only. That advantage being a spin-elutriation method using a indigenous binder. "Elutriation" is the separation of (finer or lighter) particles or colloids from coarser or heavier particles, or from a liquid, often by means of an upward and outward stream of fluid so that the lighter particles are carried upward and then "slagged". It can be combined with centrifugation, especially when a colloidal "binder" is used. The binder, if it is colloidal, can remain in the mixed fuel and be burned. A binder is a reagent which will favor attachment to one molecule over another by as much as million-fold, and many of them are hydrophobic - and thus can dramatically aid the de-watering effort - in a hybrid process. That binder can, in theory be made in situ from the very yeast which accomplishes the fermentation, by ultrasonic or other pulverization methods. The first large-scale use of spin-centrifugation was non-military, and a bit less mundane than uranium enrichment. Historically, the first centrifuge seems to have been built late in the last century by de Laval, a Swedish engineer whose design is still used chiefly for cream-separation from whole milk (cream being lighter). The "gold-panning" technique is part of an older spin-elutriation lineage, along with "winnowing" but wasn't industrialized until later. That one also has elements of elutriation - as does milk-cream and the mixed biofuel scheme envisioned here. For getting the active heavy metal isotopes for the bomb which ended WWII, it was necessary to enrich uranium in its fissile-isotope, which is found in nature in only seven parts per thousand. The bulk of that separation was done in a gas centrifuge process in which a U-fluoride gas is rotated at high speed in a porous tube, so that the slightly more massive molecules - uranium-238 concentrate near the outer edge and are expelled preferentially while the lighter molecules of U235 are concentrated near the axis - but slowly, very slowly. Several hundred stages of centrifugation are needed to effect the required degree of enrichment, since we are dealing with a mass/density (specific gravity) difference of only three parts per 292 (counting the fluorine) - or about 1 percent. The number of stages in any enrichment cascade is directly related to the mass/density variability and other factors. Cream is actually not very different in density from whole milk, but is not completely miscible and will separate on its own - so it is easier - and that is a direct analogy with the hybrid biofuel process envisioned - since the fat (or binder) is hydrophobic. Centrifugation is based somewhat on Stoke's Law in which the particle "sedimentation velocity" increases with increasing diameter of the chamber, increasing difference in density between the two phases and decreasing viscosity of the continuous phase. There is zero "sedimentation" however, in a two part miscible liquid like water and alcohol, but that can be changed with a binder which "prefers" alcohol - and is also combustible in itself. BTW - cream is about 25 parts per thousand lighter than milk - which tiny difference is comparable to the range which is often exploited in isotope separation and about what would be involved in enriching a mixed biofuel - if other techniques are employed to encourage sedimentation. Anyway, most of this is well-known and hundreds of US chemists are plodding away on various parts of the problem... but if anything can be added by the comments of an outside observer - it would be that few efforts seem to be aimed directly on the easiest "quick and dirty" approach (in this case "quick and green").

If the material is electrically conductive as iron then it is probably best to allow the free electrons to absorb MCE energy in the form of eddy currents. At the precise moment the coil would extract as much eddy current energy as possible. Regards, Paul Lowrance __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!

There is a formula from which one can derive the necessary number of stages, but I have misplaced it. The interesting/unaccounted-for thing is that when any stage can exploit two physical properties instead of just specific gravity - say: specific gravity and positive charge affinity, or magnetic moment, for instance then it seems possible to get to higher enrichment in fewer stages then expected from the properties being additive. But I do not have an authoritative reference for that contention. Obviously, if it turned out the NMR was one of those "enhancements" then ... well let's don't go there.

Next month, hundreds of those blades will spin to a stop, in what appears to be a wind-energy first: Facing legal threats from environmentalists, the operators of the Altamont wind farm have agreed to shut down half of their windmills for two months starting Nov. 1; in January, they will be restarted and the other half will be shut down for two months.

This is because of the numbers of migrating birds and raptors (hawks and eagles) that get killed. Anti wind farm types often quote the numbers of birds that get killed by wind farms as a reason to object to new projects "on environmental grounds". Actually farms like the AP are responsible for almost ALL of the bird deaths. The Altamont pass was probably the biggest of the early wind farms and it was sited purely to intersect the strongest winds in the area without regard to the other environmental aspects that all modern wind farms consider today, such as scenic impact, bird habitat, noise etc. The blades are a problem for birds because early wind farms used low towers with small blades rotating very fast. Nowadays, the designs tend to be very tall with massive, slowly rotating blades. BTW, I think the Kitegen concept is fantastic.

It sounds pretty good on paper, but the recent crash of a private airplane in NYC highlights the reason that such a concept - at least the onshore version if situated in the USA - is dead in the water. Large kites and even occassional air traffic are totally incompatible. All the more reason to look to offshore. Offshore is were that "long and winding road" ends ;-) The recent Stanford study of good wind farm sites indicates that offshore sites are highly preferable for both steady winds and to avoid problems with the "neighbors," whether they be avian or bird-brained humans If I had any control over R&D funding, the first prioity for wind-energy would be robust design for a standardized (mass produced) offshore vessle - probably a catamarran and probably with a ladder mill or ferris-type wing mill which is producing a strorable liquid - as the energy transfer medium. That stroable energy-transfer liquid could be: 1) liquid air 2) liquid air enriched in O2 (or LOX) 3) ammonia or the currently favored (long-winded) concept - 4) midgrade HOOH (50% enrichment) The feasibility of any of these is of course ultimately based on cost and safety issues. It is impossible to judge which is preferable without an extensive R&D program, which is why - as a national priority - we should be engaged in this now. For HOOH to be economicly feasible, that would probably depend on using sea water - which might be feasible. Jones "Let it be wind ?"

Kewel! It does strongly suggest to me that the biggest obstacle is not going to be how technically feasible the concept is to build and operate. It's how to overcome the equally difficult hurdle of how crazy it appears to most individuals. "It just ain't natural!" I hope we can get over our foibles on that one!

Not to mention, this happenstance was in part due to other lab workers (senior to Faraday) having been recently fired.

HINT: Your opinion would NOT be considered a popular one. ;-) To clarify my previous somewhat muddled statement, the Nationalist Party headed by Chiang Kai-shek essentially took over the Taiwanese government when they fled the mainland back in the 40s. The takeover of the Taiwanese government by the ousted Nationalist party, by some accounts, was just as brutal as the draconian consolidation that was simultaneously going on in the mainland headed by Mao. The United States ended up supporting the Nationalist party on Taiwan because it served our own political and strategic interests to do so. We were most certainly "meddling" in Taiwan's internal affairs in that sense. But such are the stuff of political dramas and strange bed fellows. I would say that everyone who felt they had an invested interest in Taiwan was caught "meddling" in the island's internal affairs. We are not the only guilty party. Not by a long shot. I would recommend you talk to a real indigenous Taiwanese who was born and raised in Taiwan. It should not be misconstrued that the indigenous Tiawanese population consider themselves a part of the Mainland. I suspect the brutal takeover by the Nationalist party only confirmed their opinion of "Great Dragon's" incessant meddling. FWIW: My family lived in Taiwan back in the early 60 for approximately three years. My father was a production manager for Foremost Dairies, a San Francisco based company that supplied dairy products across the globe. Foremost had many plants across the Pacific as well. We supplied dairy products to Americans and their families living in Taiwan. This included a very large contingency of U.S. military based on the island, and a few CIA operatives and their families working there as well.

Korea and the PFB Status: O X-Status: A pure fusion weapon (PFB) is a (hypothetical) concept that does not need a fissile trigger to ignite fusion. Of all the gruesome scenarios in the current International situation, it is the scariest. And possibly the truth is somewhere "in between" the PFB and the Mark ll "Port Chicago" design, which does not require a high enrichment trigger). Despite billons of dollars spent during the ColdWar to develop a pure fusion weapon, no measurable success was ever reported by the Pentagon. At least that is the official story. In 1998, the DoE (notice this is NOT the DoD) released a partly declassified doc stating that even if they had made a substantial investment in the past to develop a PFB (an admission that they had tried) "the U.S. does not have and is not developing a pure fusion weapon and no credible design for a pure fusion weapon resulted from the DoE investment". This is true, but limited to DoE investment in the USA. The power density needed to ignite a fusion reaction (on DT in a non-plasma) are attainable only with the aid of a fission explosion, OR with an apparatus which first creates a warm plasma - but not with conventional explosives alone. However, a large expendable apparatus such as a Z-pinch, or solenoid, or array of exploding wires could be conceivably combined with secondary explosives to implode the pre-plasma, creating a small neutron-rich explosion and create the illusion of a PFB - by Korea for its own political ends... i.e. blackmail. A pure fusion, or this kind of 'bastard' weapon, would only subvert the "intent" of the Comprehensive Test Ban Treaty but probably not the treaty itself - so we are in a double-weak bargaining position. It has been claimed by some experts that it is possible for N. Korea to have built this kind of crude, hybrid weapon, using only unclassified 20 year-old technology. The weapon design which is described below (Jones and von Hippel, Science and Global security, 1998) and might have a total yield below what Korea or observers have claimed. From the point of view of explosive damage, such a weapon would have no clear advantages over lots of conventional explosives, EXCEPT for the massive neutron flux, which could deliver a lethal dose of radiation to humans - plus by using a boron-based tamper (or fuel grade U on the high end) the damage could be raised to a much higher level - tens of kiloton range but still not be a usable offensive weapon due to bulk and complexity. http://www.princeton.edu/~globsec/publications/pdf/7_2Jones.pdf That is - no clear advantages unless **blackmail** is now to be considered to be an offensive weapon... ...as it certainly could be in the sense of a N.

Status: O X-Status: THE QUANTUM RING THEORY Quantum Ring Theory: Foundations for Cold Fusion. http://www.bauuinstitute.com/Publishing/QuantumBook.html In Quantum Ring Theory Wladimir Guglinski presents a radical new theory concerning the fundamental nature of physics. Hailed as a intriguing theorist by Dr. Eugene Mallove, president of the New Energy Foundation, Guglinski argues that the current understanding of physics does not put forth an accurate understanding of the world. Instead, Guglinski argues that we must once again consider the "aether," a notion originally put forth by Greek philosophers. By considering the nature of "aether" and its role in physical processes, Guglinski is able to put forth a theory that reconciles Quantum Physics with the Theory of Relativity. To date, no other physical theory is able to accord for the fundamental intraction between these two fundamental notions of physics. As part of Guglinski's new theory, the author presents a new model of the neutron. Guglinski's model of the neutron has been confirmed by contemporary physical experiments: The first one was made by Don Borghi and published in 1993 by the American Institute of Physics; the second experiment was made by Elio Conte and Maria Pieralice, subsequently published in the magazine Infinite Energy in 1999. Currently, other experiments around the world are being conducted to test the remainder of Guglinski's theoretical work. Quantum Ring Theory presents for the first time in a complete text the theoretical work of Wladimir Guglinski. In this volume cutting edge theoretical work in physics is presented; theoretical work which may ultimately change the very way we understand the world.

What's more, I'm not disagreeing. IMHO the railroad China's running into Tibet is another aspect to their invasion of that country, _not_ an example of how they are better uniting the kingdom of Cathay. Perhaps I should have put quotes around "part of China"...? I was just trying to say that the Chinese government is very fond of invoking the doctrine of "no interference in internal affairs" in a wide range of cases, including those where any reasonably disinterested party would say the affair in question is most certainly EXternal. >>> I don't believe the Taiwanese are any happier about China's >>> "meddling" either. >> Taiwan is absolutely considered part of China by the mainland Chinese >> government, and United States arms going to Taiwan is the "meddling" >> which is taking place. >> > > And again, you might want to take that up with a few Taiwanese. HINT: Your > opinion would NOT be considered a popular one. ;-) Right, for sure. Claims that there's "just one China" are nonsense IMHO (a claim which both Nationalist China and People's Republic of China governments have made at various times). But again, the doctrine of non-interference in internal affairs certainly has been invoked by the mainland Chinese government as justification for shouting at the United States for aiding Taiwan. So, maybe, like the British in previous generations, they've also been guilty of believing some of their own propaganda. Anyhow that was the original point, such as it was. > > To clarify my previous somewhat muddled statement, the Nationalist Party > headed by Chiang Kai-shek essentially took over the Taiwanese government > when they fled the mainland back in the 40s.

But claims that it was a dictatorship were nonsense, of course. ;-) It was a properly constituted democracy. The only hitch was that elections on the island of Taiwan were, of course, impossible to hold until the parliamentarians could campaign properly and stand for election in their home districts, which were, of course, mostly on the mainland. So elections simply had to be suspended for the duration of the emergency, until such time as the government could return to its seat on the mainland and they could once again be held sensibly. But the suspension of elections was purely temporary, of course. I have heard it said that Chiang Kai-shek actually used that argument to justify remaining in power for 40 years without an election (or however long it was). I don't know if he really did; haven't checked it. > The United States ended up supporting the > Nationalist party on Taiwan because it served our own political and > strategic interests to do so.

Historically the United States looks pretty heroic in its behavior toward China, if you contrast it with the European nations, IMHO, and about this I'm quite serious. Perhaps Roosevelt got us into the war just to save us from Japan -- but I'd like to think he did it at least in part to save China, as well, about which nobody else seemed to much care at the time. (Of course I'm thinking of the pressure he put on Japan in advance of Pearl Harbor which most likely precipitated the conflict.) Of course the European treatment of China was sufficiently awful that almost anything would look good by contrast -- treaty ports, opium wars, oh my.... > I would recommend you talk to a real indigenous Taiwanese who was born and > raised in Taiwan. Why? I've already spent some time speaking with a mainlander, and I doubt anyone from Taiwan could have a more negative view of the mainland Chinese government than she had. I remember I started to say something fatuous about how communist leaders are idealists (using a narrow definition of "idealist") and I never got to the end of the sentence; got interrupted with a tirade against the evil old men who were just holding onto power against all comers, who had no ideals, sense of duty, morals, or notions of right or wrong whatsoever.

IMHO the days of QM are coming to a close. IMHO the future of physics will be in replacing paper written equations with computer simulations & algorithms, and replacing terminology such as "energy exchange" with highly detailed step-by-step processes. IMHO that's the future of physics. For example a guy from NASA contacted me about my magnetic theory regarding MCE. Although he agrees on half my theory, the other half he cannot confirm. For example, he refers to it as simply an "energy exchange." It's a nice terminology and indeed it looks pretty to see a little wiggly photon moving from one atom to the next, but in real life it's just not that simple. We cannot write such a simple equation if we want to clearly understand in detail what's happening. Truth is no single particle can absorb 100% of any electromagnetic wave. The nearest atom might absorb 12% of the energy, the next atom absorbs a far less amount, etc. Mathematically we cannot associate a single frequency with a single photon. This concept of trying to make the photon a single quantum object and quantum wave is limiting. For example, consider the following, It is possible that what QM refers to uncertainty is simply caused by minute particle-waves so-called dancing around at rates far beyond the detection of present instruments. Consider a hot pan slightly tilted. Allow a drop of water to fall on the hot pan. We see the water dancing and hopping all over the place, but slowly the hopping water makes its way down the slanted pan. People a few hundred years ago could not predict exactly where the water would hop from one location to the next. Although they could indeed derive an equation based on probability of predicting when the drop would reach a certain distance down the tilted pan. Lets say the equation stated that in 3 seconds there is a 90% probability the water will reach the 5" mark. So these people could say it's impossible to predict the water within any accuracy beyond the equations. Yet, given today's high speed digital cameras and computers we can conceivably calculate where the drop will hop from location to location over time if we analyze the pan in extreme detail, take live thermal shots of the pan and water, etc. Two hundred years ago such certainty would seem like magic. The suggestion is QM has placed limitations. Sure, the probabilities and uncertainty has given humanity the ability to predict, and such predictions are better than nothing, but the science community should not rigidly believe in the uncertainty principle. To even suggest such a thought in the science community is offensive. It's my hope we can all be a little open-minded and have some foresight. That's why I give scientists such as Dr. Michio Kaku two thumbs up! :-) I have a highly untested theory in its infancy called MMT that's based on defining all things with respect to magnetic moment. It seems hopeful and would like to post it here one day. IMHO it will be the computer to clearly demonstrates the proper method of viewing the universe is by understanding all things are connected, that the concept of particles are different than we thought. MMT shows how to view the universe and that it's not confusing to understand that the particle is both a wave and a particle at the same time, always. The single electron double slit experiment and single photon double slit experiment has and is shaking the science community.

The facility where the test took place was identified by U.S. officials as a North Korean science and technology research center near the town of Kilchu and the northeastern coast. Very high-resolution satellite images obtained by the Defense Intelligence Agency showed the volleyball game being played near dormitories at the facility. The Japanese intelligence agency also had access to the photographs, and according to U.S. defense officials, they reported that a sports activity so close to a nuclear site was inconsistent with post-nuclear testing precautions, since the underground tunnel where the test took place was located several hundred yards away.

The signature was characteristic of an explosion: a sharp leading edge, unlike the release of elastic energy in a tectonic movement. But so far there is no report of airborne radioactivity, which is the most reliable evidence of a test and says the most about what sort of nuclear device it was. North Korea says it was deep underground, but there is typically some venting. If it was a nuclear bomb, it was very small. Bomb freaks in the Pentagon hyperventilate at the thought of a mini-nuke, but a fizzle would be more likely. 2. WOMEN IN PHYSICS: NEW BOOK TELLS THE STORY FOR THE FIRST TIME.

It is forty stories of women who made major contributions to twentieth century physics, written by distinguished scientists who are themselves actively engaged in the areas of physics about which they write. Cambridge University Press, produced a beautiful 500-page volume, and the Sloan Foundation provided a grant that reduced the list price to $35. It cannot be read without a sense of regret at what the world lost by not having greater involvement of women in science. Even today, my freshman physics class averages only 10% women. 3. PERPETUUM MOBILE: GAS PRICES STIMULATE MORE ZERO-POINT DREAMS. About five times a year somebody comes out with a new device to make free energy. Most involve magnetic fields. See for example http://bobpark.physics.umd.edu/WN06/wn082506.html . The oldest perhaps was Perigrinus in 1269, who proposed a magnet to attract iron teeth arranged around a wheel. Once you started it moving, inertia was supposed to carry it beyond the difficult gap to the next tooth. I tire of debunking these things, but this week a reporter called about Magnetic Power, Inc. He said deep-pocket investors, are putting money in it. They always do. MPI says its "Quantum Dynamos" tap the "Virtual Photon Flux, a limitless source of energy." Inventors used to call that "perpetual motion," but the Patent office won't patent perpetual motion machines. That was only a policy of the Patent office before 1985. It became case law after Joe Newman sued in federal court to force the Patent Office to issue a patent for his "infinite source of energy" (Quigg v. Newman) and lost. 4. DOVER EFFECT: MICHIGAN STATE BOARD OF EDUCATION BACKS DARWIN. Michigan had been targeted by the Discovery Institute in an effort to include intelligent design along with evolution in public school science curricula. However, following the Dover decision in federal court (Kitzmiller), the intelligent design move was reduced to trying to soften support for evolution. Instead, the Michigan Board solidified its support for evolution. THE UNIVERSITY OF MARYLAND.

Jack Smith ------------ Science News, Vol. 170, No. 16, Oct. 14, 2006, p. 253. by Sid Perkins http://www.sciencenews.org/articles/20061014/note11.asp ``Ancient hot spell is linked to copious carbon dioxide The presence of a particular mineral in ancient rock suggests that during an extended warm period in Earth's past, the atmosphere held at least triple the concentration of carbon dioxide that it does today, a new analysis shows. Between 52 million and 50 million years ago, Earth's climate was the warmest it had been since the dinosaurs died out 65 million years ago. The temperature of the deepest water in the oceans, an indication of global climate, was at least 10°C higher than it is today. Some rocks derived from Colorado lake sediments of that era contain large amounts of nahcolite, a natural form of baking soda. Lab tests indicate that nahcolite would precipitate out of salty, alkaline lakes only if atmospheric concentrations of carbon dioxide were above 1,125 parts per million (ppm), Tim K. Lowenstein and Robert V. Demicco of the State University of New York at Binghamton report in the Sept. 29 Science. Today, concentrations of that greenhouse gas measure about 380 ppm, Lowenstein notes. The climate around the ancient lake where these minerals formed was probably similar to that at the Dead Sea today, says Lowenstein. There, air temperatures average 24°C and surface-water temperatures range from 21°C to 36°C. '' References: Lowenstein, T.K., and R.V. Demicco. 2006.

Demicco Quantification of the atmospheric concentration of CO2 ([CO2]atm) during warm periods of Earth's history is important because burning of fossil fuels may produce future [CO2]atm approaching 1000 parts per million by volume (ppm). The early Eocene (~56 to 49 million years ago) had the highest prolonged global temperatures of the past 65 million years. High Eocene [CO2]atm is established from sodium carbonate minerals formed in saline lakes and preserved in the Green River Formation, western United States.

The cooling phase is far away and IMHO will not last long. Scientists can now with ease measure temperature increases over cities across the globe during peak traffic hours. That's just the tip of the iceberg. I've always said that global warming was both natural and man made, which is why "free energy" is vitally important.

If the core is solid metal, then I doubt the radiation would ever make it to the outer walls. It would all be absorbed by the free electrons in the metal. However this may not be a bad thing. A normal radio antenna is also made of metal, and when it intercepts radio waves it just results in an oscillating current in the metal, particularly if the antenna is tuned to the frequency of the waves. So you could do the same thing. Just determine what the frequency is, and attach a tank circuit to the core that matches the frequency of the core. You have direct conversion into RF energy in the tank circuit (with a bit of luck). What you end up with is a tuned antenna, with an internal power source. Then all you have to do is rectify the output of the tank circuit, and store it in a capacitor. If the voltage isn't high enough for rectification, then just couple a transformer to the tank circuit and boost it first. >Note that in >microwave ovens the metal reflects the radiation-- >only a small amount is absorbed.

You don't really need to worry about this, because the energy isn't lost, even when it is absorbed by bound electrons. It is just delays the output "temporarily". The trick is to include rectification in the external circuit, so that there is a net flow of power out of the core. (Once it has been converted into DC there is no way it can reenter the core).

First, a few prerequisites and definitions. PM - short for Permanent Magnet. Magnetic materials - Most magnetic materials are either ferromagnetic or ferrimagnetic. They both generate magnetic fields, but ferromagnetic is stronger than ferrimagnetic. Ferrites are made with ferrimagnetic material. Pure iron, cobalt, nickel, etc. are ferromagnetic. Electron orbital - The electrons are not particles, but really wave-particles. Even so, a lot of electrons do indeed have an equivalent orbital motion around the atoms nucleus. Simply stated, some electrons orbit the atom. Basically you can imagine this electron orbital as a coil of current. Intrinsic electron spin - I'll abbreviate this as IES. If we zoom in a look at the electron we'll note there is an equivalent vortex of current. Basically speaking you can imagine the electron as a small coil with current. More precisely this imaginary current is spread out like a vortex. Essentially, IES is similar to the electron orbital except the IES is far smaller and more intense. Magnetic field caused by all ferromagnetic or ferrimagnetic materials - The magnetic field caused by these materials mostly come from the IES, not electron orbital. I've read values of 80% IES. Magnetic moment - This is a field caused by either IES or the electron orbital. If you have seen drawings of the Earths magnetic field then you know what the magnetic moment field looks like. See the below image. Image:Magneticmoment.jpg MCE - This is the Magnetocaloric effect. Eddy current - Please see the following web page -> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eddy_current Electron flip - This is as described, the electron rotating 180 degrees and flipping. A great deal QM (Quantum Mechanic) physicists are under the impression the single electron does not rotate, but simply flips in an instant, in zero seconds. This is a false interpretation of QM. Experiments conducted by companies such as IBM have shown that the electron not only forces the entire atom to rotate, but it also forces the atom to precess as it flips / rotates. The actual electrons flip rate has been measured and it's typically a few nanoseconds, but can be significantly slower in electrically conductive magnetic materials. Avalanches - This is an effect where a great deal of electrons flip. It is an avalanche effect where one electron will trigger another and so on until the avalanche dies out. Applied field - This is simply a magnetic field that is applied to the magnetic material. This applied field can come from current in a coil or from PM's. Magnetic energy - this is in reference to the energy associated with electron flips. There are basically two main methods of extracting MCE energy. --> Method #1 --- Using the Eddy currents as a tool This is the method Naudin used in both of his designs. This method will not work on ferrite cores, as it requires the magnetic material to be electrically conductive at least on the micro scale. This is the easiest method. Lets start from the beginning and with a very simple design. For simplicity lets use a design that does not have any PM's (Permanent Magnets) because PM designs introduce more complexity. We have a core with two coils-- coil #1 and #2. This design therefore requires a certain minimum amount of current running through the coil to make up for the lack of PM. Note that coil #2 is only for collecting energy. Our core is a toroid. So current is flowing through the coil #1. The net magnetic field within the core is at level A. Now we want to increase coil #1's current as rapidly as possible. So coil #1 has increasing current and coil #2 is completely off. What happens is the IES's (Intrinsic Electron Spins) flip in avalanches. These avalanches are very slow because our magnetic core is electrically conductive. So there are avalanches igniting here and there. These avalanches cause Eddy currents, since our magnetic material is electrically conductive. So basically a great deal of the energy associated with the IES flip is given to the Eddy current. We see within magnetic material there's a storm brewing as the applied field increases. As the applied field increases there are millions of nano size avalanches and Eddy currents. The avalanches generate energy, which Eddy currents collect. The Eddy currents have an RL decay period, once they reach peak, meaning the Eddy currents decay at a changing rate, simply stated. At this moment our applied field is increasing, there are avalanches and Eddy currents. At the precise moment, and time is crucial, our coil #1 suddenly turns off and coil #2 turns on. A lot of electrons are still flipping and we already have a lot of energy built up in Eddy currents. We now have no current through coil #1. For simplicity coil #2 is connect to a resistor. So the resistor across coil #2 collects energy, which it dissipates in the form of heat. At some point the Eddy currents in totality will reach maximum and begin to fall. It is the job of coil #2 and its load (the resistor) to rob as much of this Eddy energy as possible. Eventually the net magnetic field in the core will fall back to level A, as mentioned above, and the process repeats. Method #2 --- The High Speed method I'll document this method at a later time. Essentially this method requires non-electrical magnetic core such as ferrites. This method could possibly generate more power, but it requires extraordinarily high performing parts that can switch in roughly a nanosecond while allowing either high current or have high breakdown voltages. As in method #1, the core is always partially magnetized. This method does not rely on the micro eddy currents. Rather, at high speed the coil current must increase (switch completely on) faster than a fraction of one flip speed. Since the core is non-electrically conductive the electron flips will occur at high speed, typically in a few nanoseconds. It's the job of the coil to generate one coherent simultaneous avalanche pulse. When the electron flip process has reached a certain rotation (roughly 90 degrees rotation) then it is time to collect the energy. Remember, just as in method #1, the core starts at level A net magnetic field. So the core is partially magnetized from the start. It is this strong net magnetic field that provides so much energy when the electrons flip. The magnetic field caused by the coil is but a fraction of the field caused by the magnetic material. That is why one cubic inch of Metglas oscillating at 100 KHz generates 15 mega joules of energy exchanges in one second (15 megawatts) per Tesla. Note that the effective permeability in method #1 would be relatively low (~5 to 100) as compared to method #2. Paul Lowrance __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

To understand how this works one needs to understand wave mechanics. Reflectance occurs during changes in effective refractive index. Free electrons give metals high effective refractive index. Since the magnetic field _originates_ within the metal it will traverse at a slower rate. The rate of absorption depends on the metal. > However this may not be a bad thing.

Yes, but in that case the field is traversing from air to metal. In magnetic material the field originates within the dense material.

In method #1 that's idea-- allow Eddy currents to collect a significant part of MCE energy and then collect as much Eddy current energy as possible.

Turns out the little buggers have a taste for heavy metal ... and we're not talkin' Led Zep either. Side note - unless you are of a 'certain age' you may not realize that the US "dropped" three enormous hydrogen bombs on Spain forty years ago. They were among the largest H-bombs ever deployed. That's right ... and what is equally miraculous is that we have somehow managed to marginalize that incident in the world-press over the years - since there were only a few dozen fatalities. Savory or not, the snail has a long and diverse history as a human food source, even though not all varieties are edible; and many (now more than ever) are poisonous. Snail shells have been found at numerous archaeological sites, especially in the Mediterranean basin - and snails were an everyday item in the diet of the Romans and Greeks, etc. They are not "Kosher" but then again neither is lobster or scallops. Escargots, as prepared in French cuisine, is a mostly-garlic dish said to contain cooked snails... but who can be sure with that much butter, garlic herbs and spices ... heck, the budget-gourmet could probably turn road-kill into a delicacy with that recipe. BTW the French word, and the edible species itself, are of Catalan (Spanish) origin.

BTW - the "fortieth" is traditionally known as the Ruby-Anniversary, but in Spain it is more like Plutonium. "MADRID (Reuters) - The discovery of radioactive snails at a site in southeastern Spain where three U.S. hydrogen bombs fell by accident 40 years ago may trigger a new joint U.S.-Spanish clean-up operation, officials said on Wednesday." The hydrogen bombs fell near the fishing village of Palomares in 1966 after a mid-air collision between a bomber and a refueling craft, in which seven of 11 crewmen died. Hundreds of tons of soil were removed from the Palomares area and shipped to the United States after high explosive igniters on two bombs detonated on impact, spreading plutonium dust-bearing clouds across nearby fields. .. bon apetite & kick it up a notch....

Global warming is real, but it may be cyclical beyond our control, especially now that methane is being released from the melting tundra -- probably a deviation amplifying process. Maybe we should be grateful for anything that puts greenhouse gas into the atmosphere because we may be entering the cooling phase of the Milankovitch cycle. Jack Smith ------------ Science News, Vol. 170, No. 16, Oct. 14, 2006, p. 253. by Sid Perkins http://www.sciencenews.org/articles/20061014/note11.asp ``Ancient hot spell is linked to copious carbon dioxide The presence of a particular mineral in ancient rock suggests that during an extended warm period in Earth's past, the atmosphere held at least triple the concentration of carbon dioxide that it does today, a new analysis shows. Between 52 million and 50 million years ago, Earth's climate was the warmest it had been since the dinosaurs died out 65 million years ago. The temperature of the deepest water in the oceans, an indication of global climate, was at least 10°C higher than it is today. Some rocks derived from Colorado lake sediments of that era contain large amounts of nahcolite, a natural form of baking soda. Lab tests indicate that nahcolite would precipitate out of salty, alkaline lakes only if atmospheric concentrations of carbon dioxide were above 1,125 parts per million (ppm), Tim K. Lowenstein and Robert V. Demicco of the State University of New York at Binghamton report in the Sept. 29 Science. Today, concentrations of that greenhouse gas measure about 380 ppm, Lowenstein notes. The climate around the ancient lake where these minerals formed was probably similar to that at the Dead Sea today, says Lowenstein. There, air temperatures average 24°C and surface-water temperatures range from 21°C to 36°C. '' References: Lowenstein, T.K., and R.V. Demicco. 2006.

Lowenstein* and Robert V. Demicco Quantification of the atmospheric concentration of CO2 ([CO2]atm) during warm periods of Earth's history is important because burning of fossil fuels may produce future [CO2]atm approaching 1000 parts per million by volume (ppm). The early Eocene (~56 to 49 million years ago) had the highest prolonged global temperatures of the past 65 million years. High Eocene [CO2]atm is established from sodium carbonate minerals formed in saline lakes and preserved in the Green River Formation, western United States. Coprecipitation of nahcolite (NaHCO3) and halite (NaCl) from surface waters in contact with the atmosphere indicates [CO2]atm > 1125 ppm (four times preindustrial concentrations), which confirms that high [CO2]atm coincided with Eocene warmth.

The key here may be "control". If they intended it to be a 0.550 KT blast, then perhaps they have demonstrated great control over a process nobody else has mastered. OTOH if they intended it to be a larger blast and only part of the material fissioned and the rest just splattered around the test site as molten droplets -- which, I suspect, is extremely possible -- then they've demonstrated poor control over a process numerous other countries have already mastered, and they've also shown that they probably can't predict very well what's going to happen when they set one of these off. > > i see this as more of a , look, we have control over very very highly > advanced technology. if we can do this, we can make nice nukes of > larger size as well. > From vortex-l-request eskimo.com Mon Oct 16 11:27:02 2006 Received: from ultra5.eskimo.com (localhost [127.0.0.1]) by ultra5.eskimo.com (8.13.6/8.13.4) with ESMTP id k9GHxiNM016863; Mon, 16 Oct 2006 10:59:48 -0700 Received: (from smartlst localhost) by ultra5.eskimo.com (8.13.6/8.12.10/Submit) id k9GHxenZ016783; Mon, 16 Oct 2006 10:59:40 -0700 Resent-Date: Mon, 16 Oct 2006 10:59:40 -0700 X-Authentication-Warning: ultra5.eskimo.com: smartlst set sender to vortex-l-request eskimo.com using -f DomainKey-Signature: a=rsa-sha1; q=dns; c=nofws; s=beta; d=gmail.com; h=received:message-id:date:from:to:subject:in-reply-to:mime-version:content-type:content-transfer-encoding:content-disposition:references; b=XX7Ce+4kQytMuaj2klHM96wv3szLqP0YpL5woQ8/EmQJszDDKWD/FpzJMahEElyxVVhrdDudKcB39yE58iTdUKZSf/l6Q4NsJJXIEfVScMzvt1aC8tntjR1uCK+/zqBFohuW0mcgInr2VobKc784jIvxBNG2DW6BLtpoKnbr2o0= Message-ID: Date: Mon, 16 Oct 2006 10:52:58 -0700 From: "leaking pen" To: vortex-l eskimo.com Subject: Re: [Vo]: Kim's nuke In-Reply-To: <4533B47F.3040109 usfamily.net> MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1; format=flowed Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Content-Disposition: inline References: <4533B47F.3040109 usfamily.net> Resent-Message-ID: Resent-From: vortex-l eskimo.com Reply-To: vortex-l eskimo.com X-Mailing-List: archive/latest/71054 X-Loop: vortex-l eskimo.com List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: List-Unsubscribe: Precedence: list Resent-Sender: vortex-l-request eskimo.com Status: O X-Status: rots the brain.. yeah, some say the same about comic books. and http://www.fas.org/faspir/2001/v54n1/weapons.htm On 10/16/06, thomas malloy wrote: > I just heard Fox news say that the NK did detonate an atom bomb.

Therefore, when the price of gasoline recently dropped substantially, only a few dyed-in-the-wool cynics made that particular connection. Personally, I did not see a political nexus then; but OTOH I'm proud to be labeled as a non-partisan political cynic, as the whole process stinks, including BOTH parties. Our system is often little more than a Pac-man PAC-sham which is run by "special interests" usually Petro-interests, and that will not change much, even if control of Congress does. There will be a liberal version of Jack Abramoff which emerges to fill that void and he will be distributing the same petrodollars for votes, just to a different constituency: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jack_Abramoff Even this cynic could not imagine that the price of gasoline could be manipulated that quickly and by that much - given that the price of OPEC crude [which is out of our control as many prior shortages have demonstrated] which only recently has gone down by a lesser percentage --- nor -- that the price of gasoline could change the outcome of even close re-election races. Even if the electorate "votes their pocketbook" - does the cost of gasoline matter that much? The stakes are extremely high. More so than you might imagine. Some of Nancy Pelosi's supporters claim that if the Democrats win, Bush will be impeached and possibly even put on trial in Hague for war crimes. Apparently charges have been secretly drawn up. You could say therefore, that the stakes *could not be higher* for the President and his inner clique, including Cheney and Rummy. However, I would not want to get into a poker game against that threesome. Even using Pelosi's chips. BTW the wholesale price of gasoline last week - in the USA - get this: it is less on the futures market (per gallon), then is the equivalent price of the crude oil it from which it is derived! Plus OPEC has stated that the recent smaller drop in crude oil prices actually began with the drop in gasoline prices in the USA -- and NOT THE OTHER WAY AROUND. This is a reversed cause-and-effect situation which would have been expected in a normal free market dynamics. So what could be going on ? The futures market - by and large - determines the pump price in the USA for gasoline, as all the US production is totally pre-bought (an Enron legacy) ... and that futures market is controlled, ultimately, by a single NYC investment firm called Goldman Sachs (GS). This particular banking firm has long been a "suits" company with suspiciously close ties to both the CIA and Mossad - and to both political parties, not just the Republicans. It is the Halliburton of Banking. In a few words GS is the most profitable and successful investment firm in the world - is no longer under Jewish control, if it ever was, and is the most "connected" bank around at high levels... and supposedly [what they do not want to publicize] : the biggest tax cheat in the banking world - done by hiding trading profits overseas, especially in Asia and then to Europe in a petrodollar recycling scheme. After 9/11, when two of GS's banking competitors were nearly wiped out by the tragedy, reports appeared on the net, along with a scanned copy of an Goldman Sachs internal memo, said to be a smoking-gun of inner circle "fore-knowledge" of the event. It was a memo sent around but not in hard copy form except to only to a few overseas offices: dated on September 10, and it is advising all employees of a possible terrorist attack. It recommended all employees avoid any American government buildings. It was supposed to be read and destroyed. Yes - WTC 6 is/was not exactly a "government building" per se, but more on that later... The PR firm handling the GS account has countered these rumors and "conspiracy theory" reports in general - with the disdainful reply that the purported memo (which they did not deny) referred only to government buildings, and apparently only to such buildings in Japan, not to "the Street". Huh? How many US government building do we have in Japan? Anyway, critics have been trying every since to determine if Goldman Sachs distributed other electronic memos, closer to home, which have not come to light. They apparently have an internal computer system which wipes all computers of a certain type of internal email. You can check for yourself on how they fared in 9/11. Anyway... enough pandering to conspiracy nuts. Here are some hard facts. Back in July, nobody thought much about the fact that President Bush had nominated Henry M. Paulson, Jr. to be the 74th Secretary of the Treasury. Quick confirmation. This was just another in a long line of candidates picked from the ranks of GS for high office especially at Treasury. Yes, Paulson had been the recent Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Goldman Sachs. At the time, a couple of months ago, this did not raise eyebrows except for the fact that Goldman had been aggressively stacking the commodities futures market to reflect its long-position outlook on gasoline- and was partly responsible for $3+ gallon run-up in fuel price during the summer driving season. Some cynics may have thought that Bush was effectively promoting Paulson to take over Treasury, and that this job may have been a "payback" from the Bush oil connections - for a job well-done in the previous round of gasoline price manipulation. He received an enormous compensation package on leaving GS - so the tiny government paycheck was not an issue - with a quarter billion in the bank. BTW - Paulson's three immediate predecessors as CEO of Goldman Sachs: Jon Corzine, Stephen Friedman, and Robert Rubin - each left the company as extraordinarily wealthy men (hundreds of millions in severance) to "serve" in government: Corzine as a U.S. Senator (later Governor of New Jersey), Friedman as chairman of the National Economic Council (later chairman of the President's Foreign Intelligence Advisory Board), and Rubin as Treasury Secretary (for Clinton). It goes like this. Serve 4-6 years at the helm at GS, then go into government with a quarter billion of severance to compensate for the minuscule government salary. And as for any lingering obligations ? Well, what does Goldman do just weeks after Paulson is sworn in as Treasury Secretary? It announces a surprising, but not so subtle move that drives DOWN gasoline prices, short-term. The opposite of what they had been doing in the years prior to this. Not just a little short selling either - it was an aggressive move in retrospect, since there was no underlying reason for it at all on the supply side. OPEC was horrified and blindsided. And surprisingly, it was a move that "lost" about $6 billion from commodity investors (in two weeks) who still held onto long positions. Almost all of these were oil companies themselves or overseas speculators. Nice chess move in a way, to finance a re-election move "off the books" so to speak as it is coming just months before the election - that: according to cynics. What GS did - in effect- was to tell its traders - we are going to see the futures price of gasoline drop by 25% in one month. Tell your most trusted independent investors to get out now... or else. Let big oil and the Euro speculators take the loss. Very Enron-like, no? ...and need anyone add ... Mission accomplished. Almost theatrical. Now, it may be hard to swallow this, for the political idealist, or for the free-market advocate, including some neo-cons who are just as shocked as the rest of us at high level "meddling" -- that this kind of market manipulation can go on at the Treasury level, and behind our collective backs - for whatever reason. But it only happens infrequently, and in fact this is the first time it has been used aggressively during Bush's tenure. But the Washington Post has revealed another leg of the manipulation ploy - the one designed to show citizens that they are better-off than the "liberal press" is telling them - the one in which our Federal government long ago teamed-up with GS to form a clandestine group know as the PPT- or Plunge Protection Team. It is semi-official, but has access to billions in treasury assets and is controlled by the aforementioned secretary pf Treasury - Paulson (who BTW is a "Fundamentalist," a so-called Christian Scientist). PPT is supposed to jump in and buy stocks when the economy is in trouble in order to prevent recession "steamrolling," as happened prior to the Great Depression - prevent the "run on the bank" so to speak. But it may turn out that recently, from early-October on, they have overshot their mandate, buying stocks long and have been pushing the stock market up to new records, just prior to the November elections by overly aggressive buying - which is certainly not part of any anti-recession mandate, as this is NOT an economic crisis, yet. Ronald Reagan formed the PPT with Executive Order 12631. It's just another way of "painting the tape" (Using your tax money, or newly printed Federal Reserve dollars) to manipulate "free" markets for political goals. Goldman of course is a founding member of the secretive PPT and yet it gets its normal retail commission for every share purchased and sold. It will profit handsomely and has probably already made back Paulson's huge severance package, in just the gasoline trades alone. Every share which has been bought recently to push the stock market to new highs - or futures bet on the gasoline shorts - will be sold after the election so that there will be little trace of what has happened - and perhaps even a net profit. You need some profits to keep things like this silent for a few months, even after Bush pulls off a narrow victory to maintain control. This is the way US politics operates today. That is - unless more of us can raise a feeble voice in protest. I just wish that there was a viable and "honest" third party. There is none - now - and if the Democrats win, it will be more of the same. In fact there are reasons not to join the Bush opposition - national pride being one. If regime change does happen, let's hope that it does not result eventually in the national disgrace of having Bush, Cheney and Rummy on trial overseas for war crimes ... the accusation being promoting war against a sovereign nation, under false pretenses, resulting in over half a million dead Iraqi. That is serious and who wants to see an American President treated like a common criminal? But that is precisely what is "in the cards" with a Pelosi speakership. House Democratic leader Nancy Pelosi says she will "drain the swamp" [in her fondest wish] should the Dems win control - and Pelosi takes the gavel as the first" Madam Speaker" in the history of American Politics. Many suspect she has already been in contact with prosecutors in the Hague, and is gloating in vindication for her strong opposition to Bush, with every new poll. I would not want to be on the same Airline Flight she gets on.

We can speculate till we're all glowing blue with radiation regarding Kim Jong's alleged predilections. Perhaps he does like his Scotch and wine. Perhaps he likes his pornography collection as well. Perhaps he even sings the lumberjack song and likes to wear high-heels and a bra in the privacy of his bedroom. So what? Much of this kind of speculation degenerates into dis-informational fodder. It serves little to get at the real individual other than to give many of us (and particularly those who are aligned to a strict ideology) justification for hating what Kim represents – because he's behaving like a hypocrite to his people, or that he behaves "that way" because he's a pervert or a tyrant, or because his personal predilections are causing his brain to rot away. It comforting to know who is wearing the black hat. It would appear that North Korea has demonstrated to the world that it can detonate a nuclear bomb. Deal with it.

Jed, I pretty much agree in principal with your assessment of the situation. I would also add that the last thing Kim wants is to be ignored. The more we engage with Kim's regime (in the 1st person) the more legitimate he is likely to feel his regime is being perceived by the rest of the world. OTOH, if Kim manages to successfully sell nuclear material to rogue organizations we will have a lot to "deal" with. It's my understanding that the science of being able to identify where nuclear material had been manufactured is a precise process. There would be no doubt as to who was responsible for the source. It is pretty much understood by all parties involved that if any clearly identifiable N. Korean nuclear material were to be used in some nefarious way by a 3rd party it would spell the end of Kim's regime - big time. People scratch their heads wondering why Kim might even consider selling nuclear material to rogue organizations if it is clearly understood that the source would quickly be traced back to his country - with disaterous consequences to his regime's health. But then, who really knows what Kim is thinking. FWIW: The most interesting speculation I've heard (and it IS pure speculation I might add since I have no hard evidence to back it up) is that Kim's political decisions indicate there may be a streak of martyrdom in his psychological makeup. If so, all the more reason to tread carefully. A cornered, wild, starving animal is not likely to feel that it has many viable options left.

Kooky Kim has a long history of secret collaborations with the rich and infamous in the PRC as well, and could take some of them down with him if he saw himself falling. Some of those who promised him troops and supplies in the past are perhaps seeing the unfeathering of their nests and might seek changes in China's leadership. Inasmuch as these may BE China's leadership would explain the extra caution and reluctance to act that could be explained by duplicity. Sun Tsu stated that all things had a rational source, so some explanation must exist to make seemingly irrational acts rational in the end. In the early nineties of the last century, there were secret arrangements made by representatives of the DPRK leadership and senior leadership in the Chinese Army PRC concerning 'triggers' for re-supply and coordinated responses. Whole PRC Army Groups were mobilized to readiness condition in Schenzhen Province in the mid nineties, and ominous unidentified massive increases in the male population totalling over six million people in the DPRK occured in the early nineties lending one to suppose the whole 'crisis' was manufactured with the west being intended victim of an enormous ambush. Mr Clinton perhaps saw this trap for what it was and found a diplomatic solution. Perhaps also at that time China PRC was not yet ready for a fight. At present Kim may not percieve time on his side. His country is six hundred thousand tons short of vitally needed foodstuffs at a time when contributions have dried up. He even told the United Nations to stop shipping food, saying it was not needed; this a seeminly irrational act. Why would he say this in the face of imminent starvation of millions in his country this winter. The only reason he would not need it would be if a large part of his population ceased to need to consume. And the little boy who never tasted power until his father died has now 'found his father's gun'! Say he does sell some of his klutzy hardware to some militants who then decide to target some population center. This center does not, as many Americans believe, have to be an American interest or city. Militants have many targets in the world, and North Korean influenced and supplied militants may well have their sights set on Japanese cities instead of American ones. The new surrogates, say, actually hit a city or some other target! What then? Who do we target in return? Or maybe then the next shoe drops, and we are threatened with a major war involving a large eastern power with over a billion population if we dare retaliate, whilst Kim gloats. And plots his next target. It has happened before. It was called Viet-Nam.

Your best source for news and information on low energy nuclear reactions

October 16, 2006


Lefteri Tsoukalas has resigned as head of the School of Nuclear Engineering today, according to Purdue spokeswoman Jeanne Norberg. Tsoukalas remains on staff at Purdue, Norberg said.
 
Tsoukalas was one of the two named accusers who made cutting remarks against physicist Rusi Taleyarkhan to journalist Eugenie Samuel Reich, writing for Nature. 
 
Exact details of the reason for Tsoukalas' resignation and to what extent it pertains to the Taleyarkhan matter are not known. A source who wishes to remain anonymous indicated that Purdue's policy of handling internal complaints may have been violated. 
 
Taleyarkhan is one of the world's leading researchers on bubble fusion, an experimental investigation into energy research that Taleyarkhan considers a possible alternative to the large, costly and more-accepted forms of conventional fusion research as well as a possible alternative to fossil fuels.
 
Nature hastily published a series of four articles on March 8 that appeared to be an attack and an effort to silence the work of Taleyarkhan. He has been working for months since the publication to respond to the attacks on his work and character.
 
The articles, which could have destroyed Taleyarkhan's career, were published in Nature's news section before the alleged scientific evidence against his work was published in the scientific literature. One of the articles was titled "Silencing the Hype," which displayed an intolerance for new science as well as a breakdown in the relationship between science and science journalism.
 
On Oct. 6, Physical Review Letters published the alleged evidence from Seth Putterman's colleague Brian Naranjo, both of UCLA, and Taleyarkhan's successful rebuttal.  (Related story)
 
On a related matter, Brian Josephson of Cambridge, a 1973 Nobel prize winner in physics, is questioning whether Nature has violated journalism ethics as outlined by the United Kingdom Press Complaints Commission. Specifically, Josephson questions whether Nature published "inaccurate, misleading or distorted information" and whether Nature failed, once the facts were brought to its attention, to publish a "correction, promptly and with due prominence, and -where appropriate - an apology."

Finally some justice for Rusi. IMHO with so many fusion experiments closing in on break even, and one Z-pinch type experiment obtaining 300 x(10^6) deg K. for several seconds generating 200,000 amps of energy, the day draws near when fusion will be a reality.

If the powers that be wanted to do something they could, Here in Western Australia they had the option of building a covered "aquaduct" from the north of the state to bring fresh water down to Perth and the more populated areas of the state or build a desalination plant close to Perth. Unfortunately for us they, the standing state government, went with the desalination plant on the coast which is starting to reveal many more environmental issues that were not taken in to account, not to mention the ongoing energy costs of running it. The decision was made based on "todays price" in dollar values and not the long term environmental versus "$" cost. Yet another example of Government making decisions based on the "next election" results rather than the "next generation" costs. If Elected Government Officials were personally held accountable for the decisions made by them as individuals rather than hide behind "Parliamentary Privilege" then many of the decisions made would be considered much more carefully than they are currently. Imagine where the western world would be today if this was the case. John Rudiger Perth, Western Australia.

Very cynical today... sorry. -john -----Original Message----- From: Jones Beene [mailto:jonesb9 pacbell.net] Sent: Monday, October 16, 2006 1:20 PM To: vortex Subject: [Vo]: Off-Topic: Gasoline Prices and Market Manipulation Most of us "want" to believe that the price we must pay for commodity items like gasoline - is somehow "above politics" and cannot be easily manipulated; especially to influence the outcome of what looks to be - in three weeks - very close mid-term elections in the USA. Therefore, when the price of gasoline recently dropped substantially, only a few dyed-in-the-wool cynics made that particular connection. Personally, I did not see a political nexus then; but OTOH I'm proud to be labeled as a non-partisan political cynic, as the whole process stinks, including BOTH parties. Our system is often little more than a Pac-man PAC-sham which is run by "special interests" usually Petro-interests, and that will not change much, even if control of Congress does. There will be a liberal version of Jack Abramoff which emerges to fill that void and he will be distributing the same petrodollars for votes, just to a different constituency: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jack_Abramoff Even this cynic could not imagine that the price of gasoline could be manipulated that quickly and by that much - given that the price of OPEC crude [which is out of our control as many prior shortages have demonstrated] which only recently has gone down by a lesser percentage --- nor -- that the price of gasoline could change the outcome of even close re-election races. Even if the electorate "votes their pocketbook" - does the cost of gasoline matter that much? The stakes are extremely high. More so than you might imagine. Some of Nancy Pelosi's supporters claim that if the Democrats win, Bush will be impeached and possibly even put on trial in Hague for war crimes. Apparently charges have been secretly drawn up. You could say therefore, that the stakes *could not be higher* for the President and his inner clique, including Cheney and Rummy. However, I would not want to get into a poker game against that threesome. Even using Pelosi's chips. BTW the wholesale price of gasoline last week - in the USA - get this: it is less on the futures market (per gallon), then is the equivalent price of the crude oil it from which it is derived! Plus OPEC has stated that the recent smaller drop in crude oil prices actually began with the drop in gasoline prices in the USA -- and NOT THE OTHER WAY AROUND. This is a reversed cause-and-effect situation which would have been expected in a normal free market dynamics. So what could be going on ? The futures market - by and large - determines the pump price in the USA for gasoline, as all the US production is totally pre-bought (an Enron legacy) ... and that futures market is controlled, ultimately, by a single NYC investment firm called Goldman Sachs (GS). This particular banking firm has long been a "suits" company with suspiciously close ties to both the CIA and Mossad - and to both political parties, not just the Republicans. It is the Halliburton of Banking. In a few words GS is the most profitable and successful investment firm in the world - is no longer under Jewish control, if it ever was, and is the most "connected" bank around at high levels... and supposedly [what they do not want to publicize] : the biggest tax cheat in the banking world - done by hiding trading profits overseas, especially in Asia and then to Europe in a petrodollar recycling scheme. After 9/11, when two of GS's banking competitors were nearly wiped out by the tragedy, reports appeared on the net, along with a scanned copy of an Goldman Sachs internal memo, said to be a smoking-gun of inner circle "fore-knowledge" of the event. It was a memo sent around but not in hard copy form except to only to a few overseas offices: dated on September 10, and it is advising all employees of a possible terrorist attack. It recommended all employees avoid any American government buildings. It was supposed to be read and destroyed. Yes - WTC 6 is/was not exactly a "government building" per se, but more on that later... The PR firm handling the GS account has countered these rumors and "conspiracy theory" reports in general - with the disdainful reply that the purported memo (which they did not deny) referred only to government buildings, and apparently only to such buildings in Japan, not to "the Street". Huh? How many US government building do we have in Japan? Anyway, critics have been trying every since to determine if Goldman Sachs distributed other electronic memos, closer to home, which have not come to light. They apparently have an internal computer system which wipes all computers of a certain type of internal email. You can check for yourself on how they fared in 9/11. Anyway... enough pandering to conspiracy nuts. Here are some hard facts. Back in July, nobody thought much about the fact that President Bush had nominated Henry M. Paulson, Jr. to be the 74th Secretary of the Treasury. Quick confirmation. This was just another in a long line of candidates picked from the ranks of GS for high office especially at Treasury. Yes, Paulson had been the recent Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Goldman Sachs. At the time, a couple of months ago, this did not raise eyebrows except for the fact that Goldman had been aggressively stacking the commodities futures market to reflect its long-position outlook on gasoline- and was partly responsible for $3+ gallon run-up in fuel price during the summer driving season. Some cynics may have thought that Bush was effectively promoting Paulson to take over Treasury, and that this job may have been a "payback" from the Bush oil connections - for a job well-done in the previous round of gasoline price manipulation. He received an enormous compensation package on leaving GS - so the tiny government paycheck was not an issue - with a quarter billion in the bank. BTW - Paulson's three immediate predecessors as CEO of Goldman Sachs: Jon Corzine, Stephen Friedman, and Robert Rubin - each left the company as extraordinarily wealthy men (hundreds of millions in severance) to "serve" in government: Corzine as a U.S. Senator (later Governor of New Jersey), Friedman as chairman of the National Economic Council (later chairman of the President's Foreign Intelligence Advisory Board), and Rubin as Treasury Secretary (for Clinton). It goes like this. Serve 4-6 years at the helm at GS, then go into government with a quarter billion of severance to compensate for the minuscule government salary. And as for any lingering obligations ? Well, what does Goldman do just weeks after Paulson is sworn in as Treasury Secretary? It announces a surprising, but not so subtle move that drives DOWN gasoline prices, short-term. The opposite of what they had been doing in the years prior to this. Not just a little short selling either - it was an aggressive move in retrospect, since there was no underlying reason for it at all on the supply side. OPEC was horrified and blindsided. And surprisingly, it was a move that "lost" about $6 billion from commodity investors (in two weeks) who still held onto long positions. Almost all of these were oil companies themselves or overseas speculators. Nice chess move in a way, to finance a re-election move "off the books" so to speak as it is coming just months before the election - that: according to cynics. What GS did - in effect- was to tell its traders - we are going to see the futures price of gasoline drop by 25% in one month. Tell your most trusted independent investors to get out now... or else. Let big oil and the Euro speculators take the loss. Very Enron-like, no? ...and need anyone add ... Mission accomplished. Almost theatrical. Now, it may be hard to swallow this, for the political idealist, or for the free-market advocate, including some neo-cons who are just as shocked as the rest of us at high level "meddling" -- that this kind of market manipulation can go on at the Treasury level, and behind our collective backs - for whatever reason. But it only happens infrequently, and in fact this is the first time it has been used aggressively during Bush's tenure. But the Washington Post has revealed another leg of the manipulation ploy - the one designed to show citizens that they are better-off than the "liberal press" is telling them - the one in which our Federal government long ago teamed-up with GS to form a clandestine group know as the PPT- or Plunge Protection Team. It is semi-official, but has access to billions in treasury assets and is controlled by the aforementioned secretary pf Treasury - Paulson (who BTW is a "Fundamentalist," a so-called Christian Scientist). PPT is supposed to jump in and buy stocks when the economy is in trouble in order to prevent recession "steamrolling," as happened prior to the Great Depression - prevent the "run on the bank" so to speak. But it may turn out that recently, from early-October on, they have overshot their mandate, buying stocks long and have been pushing the stock market up to new records, just prior to the November elections by overly aggressive buying - which is certainly not part of any anti-recession mandate, as this is NOT an economic crisis, yet. Ronald Reagan formed the PPT with Executive Order 12631. It's just another way of "painting the tape" (Using your tax money, or newly printed Federal Reserve dollars) to manipulate "free" markets for political goals. Goldman of course is a founding member of the secretive PPT and yet it gets its normal retail commission for every share purchased and sold. It will profit handsomely and has probably already made back Paulson's huge severance package, in just the gasoline trades alone. Every share which has been bought recently to push the stock market to new highs - or futures bet on the gasoline shorts - will be sold after the election so that there will be little trace of what has happened - and perhaps even a net profit. You need some profits to keep things like this silent for a few months, even after Bush pulls off a narrow victory to maintain control. This is the way US politics operates today. That is - unless more of us can raise a feeble voice in protest. I just wish that there was a viable and "honest" third party. There is none - now - and if the Democrats win, it will be more of the same. In fact there are reasons not to join the Bush opposition - national pride being one. If regime change does happen, let's hope that it does not result eventually in the national disgrace of having Bush, Cheney and Rummy on trial overseas for war crimes ... the accusation being promoting war against a sovereign nation, under false pretenses, resulting in over half a million dead Iraqi. That is serious and who wants to see an American President treated like a common criminal? But that is precisely what is "in the cards" with a Pelosi speakership. House Democratic leader Nancy Pelosi says she will "drain the swamp" [in her fondest wish] should the Dems win control - and Pelosi takes the gavel as the first" Madam Speaker" in the history of American Politics. Many suspect she has already been in contact with prosecutors in the Hague, and is gloating in vindication for her strong opposition to Bush, with every new poll. I would not want to be on the same Airline Flight she gets on.

You are likely referring to film producer, Shin Sang-ok. If you can believe what is printed in Wikipedia here are the more salient facts: ******************************************************************* >From http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shin_Sang-ok North Korean period (1978–1986) In 1978, actress Choi Eun-hee, recently divorced from Shin, was kidnapped from Hong Kong to North Korea. When Shin traveled to Hong Kong to investigate, he was kidnapped as well. The kidnappings were on orders of future dictator Kim Jong-il, who wanted to establish a film industry for his country to sway international opinion regarding the views of the Workers' Party of Korea.[4] The North Korean authorities have denied the kidnapping accusations, claiming that Shin came to the country willingly. Shin and his wife made secret audio tapes of conversations with Kim Jong-il, supporting his story." Shin was put in comfortable accommodations, but, after an escape attempt, was placed in prison. He was brought to Pyongyang in 1983, to learn why he had been brought to North Korea. [4] His ex-wife was also brought to the same dinner party, where she first learned that Shin was also in North Korea. They re-married shortly afterwards, as suggested by Kim Jong-il. >From 1983 Shin directed seven films with Kim Jong-il acting as an executive producer. The best known of these films is Pulgasari, a giant-monster film similar to the Japanese Godzilla, which can be seen as a metaphor for the effects of unchecked capitalism. In 1986, eight years after his kidnapping, Shin and his wife made a daring escape in Vienna[4], before eventually fleeing to the United States, seeking political asylum.[1] ******************************************************************* I bet there is a movie worth making here! In the meantime there are plenty of less documented rumors circulated among Kim's harshest critics for which the content appears to do nothing more than attempts to paint Kim as a degenerate nincompoop. Most of those rumors remain unsubstantiated, discounted, and unsupported. It might help to keep in mind the obvious fact that most nincompoops are not likely to be intelligent or wily enough to maintain political power, and particularly for as long as Kim has shrewdly managed to do so. There also appears to be little evidence to suggest the possibility that Kim is in danger of being replaced anytime soon, unless, of course, he drops his nuclear shoe. At that point all bets are off. Personally, I don't think Kim is deliberately planning to drop a nuclear shoe on anyone, and for obvious reasons. I suspect Kim has a far more convoluted "contingency" plan of action in mind, one that actually might work. FWIW, as I had speculated previously, Kim's political behavior resembles that of a martyr. His behavior of continued nuclear provocations suggests, at least to this observer, that in a cool, conscious, and calculated way he is deliberately trying to provoke the superpowers, (specifically, the United States!) into attacking his country FIRST in what he hopes will turn out to be a haphazard, ill-thought-out, and limited military campaign. He may be basing that reasoning on what he has seen happening to the United States and its continued debacles over in Iraq Land. From a leader with a martyr's POV, to be able to successfully provoke such an ill-planned military engagement originating from a hated superpower against his poor and starving county would quickly legitimize his regime and simultaneously bring condemnation and shame expressed from of the rest of the world on the doorstep of the belligerent Superpower. IOW, since Kim's options and resources are quickly dwindling to zilch, I suspect a major contingency plan he has had in place for some time is to attempt to provoke the United States into in a limited military campaign against his country. Instigating a limited military campaign would be the only way he and his regime could hope to survive the risky ordeal. The best way to provoke a superpower is to behave AS-IF you really ARE going to drop a nuclear bomb, but with no rational intention of actually planning on doing so. The point is to PROVOKE one's enemy into ACTING OR REACTING FIRST SO THEY CAN BE BLAMED FOR STARTING THE WAR. And as the military campaign unfolds, Kim could then expect to quickly garner significant sympathy for all the trials and tribulations brought upon his ravaged country. Remember, the United States instigated the latest military campaign against Iraq, a fact that I'm sure has not been lost on Kim within his martyr calculations. And also remember, martyrs love to garner as much sympathy as they can possibly get from others - meaning the rest of the world. But more importantly, global sympathy would eventually translate into all sorts of reparations for his country, and of course his regime. It's good to be the "Kim". It's risky. It's exceedingly dangerous. It's also very clever and shrewd. Considering the collective intellectual & emotional IQ of the current administration behavior towards "evil" nations, I would say that Kim might actually have a shot at achieving some level of global martyrdom, and possibly even surviving a limited military attempt to nail him and his regime to the cross. God! I hope not!

I am not a popular media drone nor shill for any particular political party platform. I am not dismissing the science nor challenging the credibility of the front liners... what I am challenging is the causality that is being applied. In statistics it's called "failing to reject the null hypothesis". It's a tricky way of saying something might be true because it can not be conclusively proven to be false (in short 'definitely maybe'). It's the classic argument of theology... the existence of a supreme being can neither be proven or disproved so many/most fail to reject the null-hypothesis and assume true. There is no doubt excessive CO2 and evaporating methane cathrates will have a significant impact on the environment. There is no question that current activities of our parasitic infestation of this planet are the source of much of the CO2 spike. I think it's just irresponsible to hang our hat entirely on atmospheric pollution global warming to explain increases in tectonic and volcanic activity and deep water temperature changes, especially in context to KNOWN, CYCLICAL geological and astronomic events that are converging on this time frame... 1) magnetic flip of the poles 2) pending ice age 3) increased solar output. Our pollution is No.4 at best and most likely on the tail end of the 80/20 on a pareto chart. In the strata it will be nothing more than a finger print that we were even here. My money is on pole flip and the resulting inductive heating of the planet core as flux lines are forced out of alignment with the sun's polarity... but hey, that's just me. My point is this... shame on us for crapping in our own fish bowl, but even if we 100% stopped all polluting activities today these other CYCLICAL events would continue and dramatic environmental change would still happen. This is not conjecture, this relentless march is detailed in the strata over eons. It is only our own arrogance that precludes us to believe we have an over reaching role in this process... to cause it or stop it. We are contributory bystanders at best IMO. I know this isn't popular topic and I will agree to disagree with dissenters. I have no interest in perpetuating this thread any further... -john -----Original Message----- From: Michel Jullian [mailto:mj exbang.com] Sent: Monday, October 16, 2006 2:32 AM To: johnsteck tetrahelix.com; vortex-l@eskimo.com Subject: Re: RE: [anti-Vo]: global warming John you will certainly agree that the political color of global warming concern proponents or dismissers has nothing to do with the validity or invalidity of the concern.

Do you think it is natural, or that it won't generate any serious global warming? http://www.clearlight.com/~mhieb/WVFossils/last_400k_yrs.html Note that if you align the CO2 and temperature graphs and scale them identically you can see quite clearly that the CO2 peaks systematically lead the temperature peaks by several hundred years, which IMHO answers the question of which causes which , whether directly or via an amplifying process such as methane outgasing from the melting permafrost. Personally I feel concerned about the temperature peak which will follow the present steep CO2 peak, will it over- or under- compensate our natural tendency to plunge into the next ice age? I don't know. In any case accurate modeling and adequate measures are called for.

Status: RO X-Status: Hey ex-hot-rodders .... in your wildest dreams can you imagine an affordable 1,500 Horsepower engine --- for your car, skycar, or ... err bicycle? Possible - yes - as this one pictured below only weighs-in at 35 pounds and can be mass produced. It is a reality now; but there is a catch-22 (isn't there always?) ... since it is not exactly practical, given present commercial and political realities... or should I say not practical yet .... since most of the present impracticality could be related to the shortsighted horizons of ... well, let's don't go there today. Here is a pic of the simple engine, which could cost less than $1000 in mass production: http://www.swissrocketman.com/images_gtre/41.gif BTW such an engine (and wouldn't Mr. Moller love to have access to these): http://www.moller.com/skycar/ is only possible using a liquid mono-propellant, such as a peroxide-based fuel - and that is because any liquid monopropellant negates the need for compressing huge amounts of air... which is where most of the weight (and inefficiency is) with a traditional turbine - and negates the need for expensive high temperature alloy. It is not a heat engine. The Swiss rocketman uses commercial grade stainless steel - not cheap - but affordable, especially in mass production. For comparison purposes, here is an earlier model of the famous Allison Turbine (from GM in better days) which powers most of the world's non-military helicopters, in its various incarnations. http://www.avonaero.com/allison.htm As you can see, this one develops only 317 HP and tips the scale at 136 pounds for a ratio of 2.3 (HP per pound of weight) ... whereas for comparison, the HOOH turbine is 1,500 HP and 36+ lbs for well over a ratio of 40. BTW a normal auto ICE has a ratio of only about .4 - which is fully one hundred times heavier for the same power. Most importantly, the Allison costs $100,000 minimum, due to the need for investment-cast "superalloy" blades (and the low volume production). That monstrous weight and cost advantage is severely offset, as a practical matter, by the lesser energy content and non-availability of the monopropellant fuel - as approximately four times more is needed per shaft horsepower. Therefore, for anything longer than a twenty minute flight, the weight advantage of a lighter engine can lost. Still the Swiss rocketman puts on some impressive demos. Actually it is surprising that only four times more is needed, since the comparative "heat content" is 13 times less - but that biomes relatively unimportant compared to other factors, since the HOOH engine is technically NOT a heat engine in the normal understanding of that term. However, the large amount of propellant needed is not the end-of-story. There is the huge issue of cost - which includes both fuel cost and vehicle cost. And then there are political and commercial realities, which means that US citizens may never benefit from this alternative transportation concept - even the rich ones. Try buying peroxide these days in 5 gallon quantities. OTOH ... as Bobby Z sez: "the times, they are a changin' " In the "big picture" and in the "perfect world" of the near-future ... circa 2010 and thereafter, perhaps the only real possibility for affordable personal air transportation vehicle, like the Moller-esque SkyCar might be the engine above - which is turning an electrical generator and powering 4-6 electric motors, driving tiltable fans. So what if your sixty mile, 20 minute commute from the 'burbs (of Sebastopol ?) to the city, requires 120 gallons of monopropellant ... ... since you made it all last night from water and air for about the grid-equivalent of 100 kWh, or the equivalent cost of two gallons of regular (in the year 2010) ... but since you are off-the-grid ... all cost is for the amortization of the mini-factory which makes the propellant... And I am assuming that the other breakthroughs [like the MPI generator or the LENR converter] have permitted you to go off-grid. OK maybe we better move this Sci-Fi timetable to 2020.... Hey.. then as now, there will still only be two kinds: the quick and the dead... ;-) Jones For non-word-freaks, the old (biblical) meaning of the word "quick" is "alive." The phrase has become, of course, the prototypical gunslingers-mantra of Oaters and drag-racers. But when a baby was first felt to move in a mother's womb, it was then considered to have come to life, in ancient reckoning- and this moment was called a "quickening" ... nowadays, your mostly-male-moralists prefer to call it the "second trimester" From vortex-l-request eskimo.com Fri Oct 20 13:07:53 2006 Received: from ultra5.eskimo.com (localhost [127.0.0.1]) by ultra5.eskimo.com (8.13.6/8.13.4) with ESMTP id k9KK7TOF030498; Fri, 20 Oct 2006 13:07:29 -0700 Received: (from smartlst localhost) by ultra5.eskimo.com (8.13.6/8.12.10/Submit) id k9KK7P46030466; Fri, 20 Oct 2006 13:07:25 -0700 Resent-Date: Fri, 20 Oct 2006 13:07:24 -0700 X-Authentication-Warning: ultra5.eskimo.com: smartlst set sender to vortex-l-request eskimo.com using -f Date: Fri, 20 Oct 2006 16:03:49 -0500 From: Harry Veeder In-reply-to: To: vortex-l eskimo.com Message-id: MIME-version: 1.0 Content-type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 User-Agent: Microsoft-Outlook-Express-Macintosh-Edition/5.0.3 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit X-MIME-Autoconverted: from quoted-printable to 8bit by ultra5.eskimo.com id k9KK7Htu030345 Resent-Message-ID: Resent-From: vortex-l eskimo.com Reply-To: vortex-l eskimo.com X-Mailing-List: archive/latest/71085 X-Loop: vortex-l eskimo.com List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: List-Unsubscribe: Precedence: list Resent-Sender: vortex-l-request eskimo.com Subject: [Vo]: OT: A short rant Status: O X-Status: I suppose it necessary to keep digging this stuff up. Perhaps when enough of it is dug up people will finally see the conceptual problems of modern physics began long before modern quantum and relativity theory. They began, in my estimation, when some PRINCIPLES of motion championed by some 17 th century mechanical philosophers were implicitly elevated in the second half of the 18 the century to the level of DOCTRINE. Harry http://www.bookrags.com/Christiaan_Huygens "Huygens's mechanistic tendencies are most evident in his studies of gravity and light. His 1659 gravitational researches presupposed and built upon Descartes's vortex theory‹gravity is caused by particles of subtle matter swirling with great speed around Earth. Huygens maintained that vortex particles have a tendency (conatus) to move away from Earth's center. In realizing their conatus, vortex particles exert a force on ordinary particles of matter through direct contact, which brings about in the latter a conatus to move toward Earth's center. Thus, the centrifugal force of vortex particles produces a centripetal force in ordinary matter. Fleeing vortex particles are continually replaced, thus maintaining a constant gravitational force. Next, Huygens established the law of centrifugal force for uniform circular motion as well as the similarity of the centrifugal and the gravitational conatus. He also distinguished between quantitas materiae and weight, the former being proportional to the space occupied by ordinary matter, while the latter was treated as a gravitational effect proportional to quantitas materiae. This is likely the earliest insight into the distinction between mass and weight. Though Huygens rejected Newton's theory of universal gravitation because it required action-at-a-distance, his own mechanistic account failed to explain satisfactorily how subtle vortical-matter transferred centripetal conatus to ordinary matter."

The change in the international political climate over the past decade is nowhere more evident than in a comparison of the new National Space Policy with the 1996 policy it replaces. The old policy committed the U.S. to "greater levels of partnership and cooperation" with other nations to ensure the "continued use of outer space for peaceful purposes." The new policy defines "peaceful purposes" as whatever U.S. defense and intelligence- related activities are deemed to be in the national interest. "Freedom of action in space is as important to the United States as air power and sea power." The first goal of the 1996 policy was to:"Enhance knowledge of the Earth, the solar system and the universe." Now the first goal is to: "further U.S. national security, homeland security, and foreign policy objectives." 2. CLONED? WE WERE JUST GETTING USED TO "GENETICALLY MODIFIED." According to Rick Weiss in the Washington Post, the Food an Drug Administration is about to approve the sale of meat and milk from cloned livestock.

Park Friday, 20 Oct 06 Washington, DC WHAT'S NEW Robert L. Park Friday, 20 Oct 06 Washington, DC 1. EMPIRE: PRESIDENT BUSH APPROVES A NEW NATIONAL SPACE POLICY. The change in the international political climate over the past decade is nowhere more evident than in a comparison of the new National Space Policy with the 1996 policy it replaces. The old policy committed the U.S. to "greater levels of partnership and cooperation" with other nations to ensure the "continued use of outer space for peaceful purposes." The new policy defines "peaceful purposes" as whatever U.S. defense and intelligence- related activities are deemed to be in the national interest. "Freedom of action in space is as important to the United States as air power and sea power." The first goal of the 1996 policy was to:"Enhance knowledge of the Earth, the solar system and the universe." Now the first goal is to: "further U.S. national security, homeland security, and foreign policy objectives." 2. CLONED? WE WERE JUST GETTING USED TO "GENETICALLY MODIFIED." According to Rick Weiss in the Washington Post, the Food an Drug Administration is about to approve the sale of meat and milk from cloned livestock. The FDA is responsible only for the question of human safety. Too much animal fat in the diet is dangerous, but no more so if it comes from clones. If there is no rational downside to an innovation we can always count on religion to discover supernatural objections. Some Jews, for example, worry that the Talmudic injunction against crossbreeding might forbid cloning, but a clone seems to go in the direction of species purity rather than a chimera.

Middlemen are really transient nonenities that disappear as soon as ways can be found to bypass them. Reveal was buying electronic computer peripherals from a Taiwanese company in Kaioushung and selling them through Wal-Mart and other stores here in the United States after rebranding them. There was almost no value really added by Reveal except to ship them here. As a result, accessories described in the manuals were totally unavailable from the real manufacturer, and Reveal did not live long enough to really deal with. Evidently Wal-Mart's people found out who the real producers were and promptly tried to cut Reveal out. I think that there was some litigation but it came to nothing. So the danger in becoming a nation of wholesalers is that we become a nation of losers. We lost the means of production to slave labor. We never really owned the means of production in the first place. Corporations will go where they can to make a buck and know no national loyalty whatsoever. The passage of 'free trade' legislation erased our borders, our tariffs, our independance, our freedom, and now is erasing our wealth and our jobs to a tide of foreign indigents invading even the smallest of our towns, working for nothing and regrettably so must we. And all we have to show for it are new laws allowing our own government to torture us in foreign countries and hold secret trials in star chambers with no right to habeus corpus, confrontation of witnesses, statements of charges, no jury, admissability] of illegal and hearsay 'evidence'...just like the German 'enabling acts' of 1934 under the third reich. We then lost the rights to produce our own stuff that we invented when Al Gore passed the DMCA back in the nineties to 'put us in the digital highway'. Even if we tried to start factories to produce televisions, for example, much of this product is tied up as so called 'intellectual property' and those ideas are 'owned' by foreigners. We would be put out of business by our own police. Little did we know in those prosperous times that those laws concieved in naivete would come back to haunt us, forcing us to become vagrants and bindlestiffs on the 'digital highway' to free trade slavery. Standing Bear Sadly Richard is absolutely right. We are throwing away our discoveries to foreigners, and stifling our ingenuity through throttling higher education opportunities to any but the rich and/or well connected. This means less likelyhood of our recovery even when we do come to our senses. What does it say about a society when the largest section of the yellow pages of any town's directory is 'attornies'?

Unfortunately, machines cost money, machines with a history of exploding cost even more money. Does anyone know if the upper clouds in a hurricane resemble the proposed Respine? Also does the observed energy from a hurricane exceed the input energy? It is a conductive material, water and salt moving in a magnetic field. --- http://USFamily.Net/dialup.html - $8.25/mo! -- http://www.usfamily.net/dsl.html - $19.99/mo! --- From vortex-l-request eskimo.com Sun Oct 22 07:54:35 2006 Received: from ultra5.eskimo.com (localhost [127.0.0.1]) by ultra5.eskimo.com (8.13.6/8.13.4) with ESMTP id k9MEsFAX028361; Sun, 22 Oct 2006 07:54:15 -0700 Received: (from smartlst localhost) by ultra5.eskimo.com (8.13.6/8.12.10/Submit) id k9MEsBmF028326; Sun, 22 Oct 2006 07:54:11 -0700 Resent-Date: Sun, 22 Oct 2006 07:54:11 -0700 X-Authentication-Warning: ultra5.eskimo.com: smartlst set sender to vortex-l-request eskimo.com using -f DomainKey-Signature: a=rsa-sha1; q=dns; c=nofws; s=s1024; d=yahoo.com; h=Message-ID:Received:Date:From:Subject:To:In-Reply-To:MIME-Version:Content-Type:Content-Transfer-Encoding; b=i3XsJQuyUGzMU+9jbcaqUY6hifpXYS5gDEtMf5ZZxG1PA59G18UUZ24VvY9VILXy/O6VgVOjwYBQCXv5g6Odb+bZdadFYe0BM8mOdX64oFCA1yGvQtKNj9mG1l6gu2re3NlEE3g3QSgpSwRRlecG9Vwhu0L9vcUrCxzIkWuf9Hc= ; Message-ID: <20061022145404.30832.qmail web62403.mail.re1.yahoo.com> Date: Sun, 22 Oct 2006 07:54:04 -0700 (PDT) From: Paul To: vortex-l eskimo.com In-Reply-To: <453AE8C9.4070403 usfamily.net> MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=iso-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Resent-Message-ID: Resent-From: vortex-l eskimo.com Reply-To: vortex-l eskimo.com X-Mailing-List: archive/latest/71098 X-Loop: vortex-l eskimo.com List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: List-Unsubscribe: Precedence: list Resent-Sender: vortex-l-request eskimo.com Subject: [Vo]: C2C guest tonight Status: O X-Status: On C2C-AM tonight a writer and philosopher Stephan A.

And when the aim is moving any vehicle, "torque" at the drive wheels is really all that matters. Some of those old locomotives could pull half a million pounds with less than a hundred real horsepower, it is said - because they had sufficient torque. And, yes, the two measures are interchangeable to an extent - on paper - but try using your 200 HP car to pull a train. The low steam pressure locomotive is still being used in parts of Asia today. Big polluter but a "sunk cost" as they say in the Raj. Since only about a hundred psi - up to a few hundred - was feasible for steam pressure in the old boilers, very large cylinders were used to convert the low pressure steam to torque. Anyway the main point for what follows is that a significant contribution to the net torque which was attainable - was from the "vacuum" on the exhaust stroke. And we are not talking ZPE here but real vacuum created on the exhaust stroke, due to condensation of steam against the large bore cylinder. Atmospheric pressure being ~14.7 psi at sea level is potentially "free" as your power stroke must displace that much "space" it to begin with. This vacuum can provide as much as several thousand ft-lbs of torque alone, with a sufficiently large bore, but vacuum is (more or less) always underutilized in modern engine design; nevertheless it is there - free for the taking (although of little benefit without huge pistons/cylinders). However, fast-forward a century - and the thought just occurred - than in a modern context of using a very larger bore aluminum cylinder in a modern auto, a kind of steam/vacuum engine is once again feasible; in which the free vacuum contributes as much of the end torque as does the expansion phase. A perfect balance is actually desirable. This is a "green" concept, only an hour old, so maybe I am missing something. If so, forgive the wasted bandwidth. BTW, you may have already guessed from prior postings about various aspects of a current alternative-energy "obsession" - that this type of engine is only feasible using a certain kind of liquid propellant to generate the steam by internal explosion, and not using a boiler, nor regular combustion (CO2 will not condense, needless to say). Let me see if I can paint a verbal image of this. First - for a lightweight auto needing about 200 ft-lbs or torque and assuming that the vacuum would only be partial (some residual steam) so that the vacuum itself will give us (in round numbers) ~ 10 psi to work with - then if one wishes to balance that with about 25 psi net on the power stroke (mid stroke) - for a 50/50 split between the two sources of effective torque - then this constraint basically sets most of the necessary parameters. And it looks extremely promising at first glance. Here is just how strange this beast might appear to one accustomed to only gasoline or diesel engines. I suppose that not many Vo's other than John Steck have been involved in ICE design as a profession, but even so, you probably know the terms: "displacement" and "bore/stroke ratio". Used to be, a ~ 300 cu.in. displacement ICE - or roughly 5 liter - was considered desirable for an American car, but in a vacuum-assisted steam ICE (notice that it is an ICE and not an ECE), and with even less torque but a lighter vehicle, you are going to need perhaps 1,200 ci or 20 liters displacement - and to make things even weirder, instead of a "square" bore-to-stroke ratio (i.e. one-to-one) this one will probably have an unbelievably oversquare ratio of perhaps 10-1 ! This consideration has been optimized in order to present a very large surface area for the vacuum to pull against - but yet still to allow for fairly decent RPMs (300 RPM ?) Imagine a two cylinder, 2-cycle engine - with each cylinder having a bore of 20 inches and a stroke of only ~2 inches. It is lightweight, heavily finned, die-cast aluminum and operates at only 150 F. The outward appearance is mostly that of a gigantic cylinder head, below which sits a very compact remainder of an engine, but it will still easily fit under the hood. It burns 50% (mid grade) peroxide with hydrogen gas, both direct injected, and gives **only** condensed steam (hot water) in the exhaust - nothing else. ZERO emissions. More on that later. It uses plenty of peroxide but very little hydrogen (17 to one ratio by molecular weight). At TDC there is zero effective gap between the piston crown and the cylinder *except* for a small spherical combustion chamber, of about 2 inches in diameter, centered. The piston crown is not flat but conical, except for the "dimple" of the hemispherical half of the combustion chamber. There is NO intake manifold and no "real" exhaust manifold, although there is means of removing condensed surface water using gravity and microchannels around a hydrophilic cylinder wall. The Carnot efficiency, based on hydrogen alone (which introduces an error) is around 150%. That's still not real overunity however, because of the peroxide requirement. But it is very enticing as a goal. Normally these parameters would be impossible, of course. But this is not your father's ICE (closer to your grandfather's locomotive ) and the ironic thing is that we are getting half the energy from "the vacuum" but not the mystical and exotic ZPE vacuum - just the garden-variety interplanetary one. More later.

If located at Monahans, the solar tower -- also known as a solar chimney -- would be, at 3,000 feet tall, the largest manmade structure in the world and generate 200 megawatts of green electricity, enough to power 200,000 homes. "As an oilfield community, we've been in the energy industry all our lives," said Gene Brown, president of the Monahans Chamber of Commerce and consultant to the Monahans Economic Development Corporation. "We want to be on the cutting edge of the next energy boom." Chris Davey of SolarMission Technologies, the U.S. company that is a major stockholder in EnviroMission Ltd., the Australian developers of the tower, said the project operates on the basic rule of physics that holds that hot air rises. The project will be built at a cost of $350 million and create over 2,000 jobs during construction and create business for numerous local vendors, especially concrete vendors, Brown said. "While that's good for Monahans, it's also good for the Permian Basin," he said. "It will create over 2,000 construction jobs and we'll be able to put a lot of people to work." He said there is no doubt the project will draw workers from surrounding areas like Midland, Odessa, Kermit and Andrews. "The most important thing," Brown continued, "is that for years and years things we've viewed as a disaster -- our population declining, losing school population, may actually be a positive.

Davey acknowledged that it was Monahans' available infrastructure, as well as its experience in the energy industry, with a plentiful supply of the engineers, geologists, machinists and welders needed for the project that has SolarMission looking at West Texas. At the present, Davey said, preliminary feasibility studies are being conducted over the next six months, followed by another 18 months of putting together the financing, environmental impact studies and getting government approvals before construction actually begins. There is a chance, if the first tower is a success, that up to four could be built, Davey said, and the costs of construction would decline with subsequent projects. If additional towers are built, Brown said, construction jobs would last seven to 10 years and there would be 15 to 20 permanent jobs afterwards to operate the towers. Indeed, he said, neighboring communities are pledging their help in securing the tower. Davey noted that the impact of the tower would be felt beyond its contribution to the electric power grid or to developing renewable energy. He cited tourism as an example, noting that tourists would be drawn to the world's tallest manmade structure. To accommodate tourists, he said observation decks would be built at 1,500 feet and at 3,000 feet. This, said Brown, "is a chance for Midland and Odessa, Monahans and Pecos to get together and discuss tourism packages, putting together tour groups that would come to the Petroleum Museum in Midland, the Presidential Museum in Odessa, the meteor crater, the solar tower, the Monahans Sandhills, and the Judge Roy Bean office in Pecos. Once we get the tower, that might be our next big project. Once a tourist comes to see the sights, they might want to stay and play golf or go to a cookout on a ranch. We need to find ways to make it worth their time to spend three or four days in West Texas." The German-designed technology, licensed by SolarMission, operates like this: A "greenhouse" of transparent material two-and-a-half to three miles in diameter will collect hot air, which will flow through 32 turbines situated around the base of the concrete tower. The difference in temperature between the interior of the collector and the tower and ambient temperature will provide a constant source of uplift of heated air, generating power. Unlike other renewable power sources such as wind, hydro or solar, Davey pointed out, the solar tower is not dependent on sunny days or wind speeds. "We are a large-scale power generator and can guarantee delivery of power," Davey said. "We can deliver power on demand" just like the natural gas-fired electrical power generation plant in Odessa. West Texas, with its solar radiation, access to a power grid and flat terrain, makes it a prime candidate for the first solar tower in the United States. Other candidates are sites in Arizona and Nevada. But Davey said Texas' mandate that a percentage of electricity be generated by renewable sources, tax incentives and the community's support for the project are weighing in West Texas' favor. "This is a conducive climate to renewable energy," Davey said. The technology has been successfully proven with a small-scale plant in Spain. The key to success, Davey said, is being able to provide the power at a cost competitive with power generated by natural gas, coal or fuel oil-powered plants. Power generated by the solar tower, he said, will be a bit more costly but should be "in the ballpark." While the jobs created, the $350 million investment and the contribution to renewable energy is important, Brown also has a typically Texan reason for wanting the solar tower built in Texas: "We want Texas to be the first," he said.

Physics Professor Steven Jones is due to retire Jan. 1, after BYU placed him on paid leave to review his research paper on the Sept. 11, 2001, terror attacks, the Deseret (Utah) Morning News said. Neither side released details of the package. In his paper, Jones said experiments he conducted on material from ground zero and other evidence led him to believe three complex towers fell because pre-set explosives detonated throughout the buildings after the hijacked jets struck the Twin Towers, the Morning News said. Once the retirement agreement was reached, the Provo university stopped its review, the newspaper said. Jones submitted a letter to the Morning News, criticizing the Iraqi war and questioning the official explanations of the towers' collapse. He also expressed concern that any future attacks may be blamed on Iran or Syria to justify U.S. actions against those nations, the newspaper said. Scholars for 9/11 Truth, co-founded by Jones, has collected 2,924 of the 10,000 signatures it wants on a petition supporting Jones to send to the BYU president.

That 200 megawatts is probably "name plate" i.e. maximum power output. Assuming there is never a cloud in the sky, a more realistic figure is 1/4 of that on average. IOW the real continuous power output is likely to be nearer to 50 MW. (Unless this has already been taken into account, and the maximum is actually 800 MW). (Pi x r^2)/(4 x Pi x r^2) = 1/4 x 1 kW/m^2 = 250 W /m^2 average continuous power flux across the surface of the Earth. Near the tropics of course, it is somewhat better, but always less than 1/2. [snip] >The project will be built at a cost of $350 million and create over 2,000 At 50 MW, that would be $7/Watt, which is definitely on the high side, and that's assuming that they can actually get such a huge structure built for a mere $350 million. Of course, if it really is 200 MW, and gets built on budget, then it's only $1.75 / Watt, which is quite competitive, especially taking into consideration that thereafter, the fuel is free.

I'm reminded of a party scene in the classic movie "Animal House" where college freshman "Otter", under the influence of cannabis, is having his imagination temporarily -stretched- in the midst of a conversation with his English profession, played by an equally stoned Donald Sutherland. "You mean all the atoms in my body are made up of electrons spinning around a nucleus," Otter exclaims "just like a miniature solar system?" Suddenly, Otter grasps the implications, "Wow!" Well, you had to remember the scene. ;-) Thanks, Terry!

Next scene ended up singing "Hey Paula". Yes, I've watched it too many times. :) Hmm...

Another Classic. "We need your liver!" I loved Erik's Galaxy Song too. However, the rather stuffy explanation: "Assuming we are 25,000 light years from the centre of the galaxy, then the path taken by the sun as it orbits the centre is given by the formula for the circumference of a circle: 2?r = 157,000 light years. As one light year is equal to 9,500,000,000,000 km, and the sun moves at 220 km/s, this all works out to an orbital period of roughly 215-million years. Perfect." ...may not be as accurate as we have all assumed. There is a controversial theory called "MOND" (Modified Newtonian dynamics) having to do with the correction of acceleration anomalies known to exist on galactic scales. It's possible MOND or some variation of it may ultimately turn Newton's revered square law of gravitation upside down, and in the process possibly the eventually dismissal of most if not all of that mysterious DARK MATTER that physicists and astronomers love to pontificate endlessly over, a huge chuck of "matter" that has yet to be proven to actually exist. Can you spell "f u d g e f a c t o r"? See: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Modified_Newtonian_Dynamics PS: My most sincere apologies to "Pinto."

Status: O X-Status: There has been a lot of complaining in Japan, China, and elsewhere about the high price of (mostly Western) copper lately, but is anyone really looking at alternatives seriously? With hybrid cars, this can be an important issue - as they need much more electrical conductor - and the buyer ends up paying a huge premium for a traditional metal (required by codes) - which might not be the best choice for many applications - that is, if a surprising (and light weight but corrosive) alternative conductor ever gets into mass production. Of course, there is aluminum, as an alternative - but an even lighter and much cheaper choice (yet more of a corrosion risk) is sodium. Plus Na is a byproduct of PVC production. It can be clad with anodized Al or plastic, and still be much cheaper. A 'conspiracy theorist' [do any frequent this forum?], might opine that copper prices are possibly being manipulated as a competitive measure to lower the high demand for the Hybrids vs Detroit iron. The buyer of a Prius is paying, in effect, an added $500 copper tax... hmmm... probably more of a situation of 'market opportunism' - than real manipulation. 25 years ago a decent study was done on the subject of alternative conductors; and this report came out of it: "A single insulated sodium conductor for HVDC underwater power transmission" Author: Dunlap, R. M. It would be interesting to know if anyone is pursuing alternative like this, in today's economy - or have the Alcoa's of the world squelched such inquiry... Terry might know? Abstract The minimum energy transmission cost cable configuration for HVDC underwater power transmission is considered. Cable material costs, energy losses, operating temperatures, bend radii, terminal voltages, currents, and resistances are determined. Electrode design, single vs two conductor transmission, splices, insulation, control of buoyancy, operating hazards, and the cost per unit of energy are analyzed. It is concluded that the use of a sodium conductor insulated with polyethylene for HVDC underwater power transmission is superior to copper conductor with the same insulation due to its reduced transmission cost, avoidance of strategic materials (copper), flexibility, near neutral buoyancy in water avoiding high stresses laying in deep water, lower received voltage, and lower operating temperature. END of 25 year old report. Nowadays, copper is at least ten time higher in cost then it was when the study was done, and sodium is little different (in potential cost as a by-product). As for properties: Sodium - on a per weight basis - will carry three times more current than copper for the same temperature rise; but is 9+ times less dense; consequently, for a wire of the same size it will only carry about a third the current. Plus sodium requires much better insulation against air and water. Wire diameter, as opposed to actual weight, is important in motors, generators and alternators - but with a cost differential (per amp carried) of at least 10-1 (in today's market) and a weight advantage which makes hanging wire much easier for crews, it is puzzling why we have not seen some published R&D (relating to why it is not feasible to switch some applications to clad-Na) or else consider changing the standards - especially by the Japanese, who have neither much copper nor aluminum resources ...but are totally surrounded by megatons of sodium .

Directed toward the craft from the ground was an array of 135 mirrors to concentrate the blinding New Mexico sunlight to an intensity equal to 300 suns. The beam shined on the climber's high-efficiency solar cells. With a muffled whirring, it rose 35 feet. Only 37,500 miles to go. The solar-powered elevator car, dubbed the Jolly Roger, is one of a dozen prototypes from around the world for a device that could lift humans and cargo into geosynchronous orbit aboard a futuristic space elevator. It's an admittedly bizarre idea, but NASA has taken it seriously enough to host a global competition here this week, offering $150,000 to the team that can lift the most weight to the top of a 200-foot tether in the shortest time. Instead of carrying heavy fuel, the machines must get their energy beamed onboard from sources such as sunlight, microwaves or lasers. That energy is then converted to electricity to drive the crafts' motors.

Unbeknownst at the time, there had already been posted, to KeelyNet back in May, the piece: "The Science of Qi" about Dr. Patrick Flanagan. I must say that Jerry Decker is becoming quite the excellent scavenger and sleuth of alternative science News items these days... Here are some excepts and comments from that piece. BTW Qi and Chi are the same word, or at least about as close and Deng and Dung which is to say, they contrast how the modern Chinese lexicops are trying to make their language appear in print to Westerners (but without the aid of a good PR person). Anyway: "PERHAPS the grooviest scientist on the planet today is Dr Patrick Flanagan. Inventor, physicist, medical doctor, author and holder of over 300 patents, he is also among the most brilliant scientists alive. At age 11, he invented a missile detector which could track missiles being launched anywhere in the world. The Pentagon promptly bought his invention and appointed him as an adviser! At age 13, he invented a hearing device that helped many deaf people. He continued to invent so many things in so many fields that by age 17 (43 years ago), Life Magazine had already chosen him as one of the 100 most important young people in the US.As proof that he has not slowed down at all, in 1997 at age 51, he was named Scientist of The Year by the International Association of New Science." OK that is the "build up" - which is important here to show that Flanagan is not some kind of quack or cranky-health-nut. He is the creme-de-creme of inventive genius. The reason that this is important is that many physicists, on hearing something like Qi or Chi or orgone spoken in a serious context, turn pale, start to froth at the mouth, and slather vulgarities... anyway... "During Dr Flanagan's research, he found that the Hunza Valley water contains high levels of negatively-charged hydrogen ions (each hydrogen atom having an extra electron)"... Is that correct? What did he find, really? Given that few scientists outside the energy-world, including the good Doc Flanagan, have ever heard of Mills' hydrino-hydride ... and given that the Hunza valley sits at very high elevation ... hmm? "According to him [Flanagan], the moving electrons (through the movement of hydrogen) generate Qi, the universal life force. Even he acknowledges that Qi is at the core of all matter and biochemical reactions... Hmm ... now that is interesting, no? Should we alert the good Doc to the fact that the Key ...err... Qi of Life - may not be that "electron" after all, but might be something a little more "binding" shall we say and have a new name and symbol: hydrino-hydride or Hy+ ? OTOH ... if it takes a couple of pages of hard-won prose just to scratch the surface in an attempt to explain the arcane differences between Qi, Chi, hydrino-hydride, orgone, and hydronium ... to the sci-lexicops [and that is without recourse to Mills' 800 page oeuvre), then I think I'll be well-advised to just stick with a simpler "Chi" and let others, with a bit more patience and less of an elitist slant, unlock the subtle-secrets of ... Qi. Jones BTW, as a personal note, and perhaps intuitively sensing the universal memes which are floating around Gaia this season - Ramadan, Yom Kippur, etc. I began a Fast five days ago (as much for therapeutic as religious rationale), and can vouch for the general concept that "only" water can have curative and sustaining value far in excess of what we normally attribute to it.... However, sure wish I had a few gallons of Doc Flanagan's Hunza-Hy+ ;-) So if the observations above are too cranky for you, attribute that to the altered perception which is induced by lack of food. I missed the Coast-to-Coast radio show mentioned by Paul - where writer and philosopher Stephen Schwartz was to discuss how consciousness affects the structure of water, but it is definitely a subject which you will hear more about, in the years to come... and probably supports the related conclusion that fasting is not for everyone; certainly not for those without the consciousness to "believe" that they can alter the structure of the commonplace and elevate the trivial to the vital.

The hypothetical particle in question will be designated as Hy- [but in an earlier post it was dyslexicly written as a positive ion]. This species (if real) must consists of one proton and two electrons at 'orbitals' which are a whole fraction of the Bohr orbital. However, this solar-derived species may be largely incompatible with any earthly existence at all, and yet it could still be a major component of solar wind. Believe it or not, we do NOT presently know from real experiment just what is in solar wind. It's all a guess now. Even the recently failed attempt by NASA to find out was not equipped to search for this species, Hy-, so it too would have been inconclusive. Electrons, despite electrostatic repulsion, can display an equally strong and balancing magnetic attraction, and often will exhibit a very strong preference for pairing, as we know. This - even without Mills' CQM - is a most revealing and important observation. We might even go so far as to agree with Mills that the Bohr orbital is NOT the sole ground state, as is generally stated in physics textbooks, but instead is merely the first [of many redundant ground states] at which the electron and proton *can exist with unpaired electrons*, as opposed to paired. A further implication is that - for every Bohr atom at normal earth-ground-state, in the Universe as a whole, there could possibly exist from 10 to 100 widely dispersed and 'cold' Hy-, which ARE then defined as 'dark matter' (or at least a major component thereof). This creates the situation of an inherent charge-bias across the Universe. Not to mention making fools of previous cosmology "experts" who are convinced they have it all figured out already. Does a charge bias, or inherent imbalance, seem to fly in the face of observation? is it theoretically even possible? ... and before reflexively yelling NOT POSSIBLE! ...consider that "universal expansion" itself could be a relic of this inherent charge bias! We certainly have a charge-bias in earth's atmosphere, which varies in layers, and is most apparent as the so-called "fair weather field" but one of those layer may be caused by the solar wind containing lots of Hy- instead of what is normally envisioned = free electrons. Free solar electrons could be almost impossible in a situation where the Sun itself has an ever increasing positive charge bias from having already given up 5 billion years worth of Hy-. In contrast to free electrons, these Hy- can and do exit the corona by means of the 1837x greater kinetic momentum which they possess, compared with free electrons. At any rate, given the thermodynamics of the constant formation of hydrinos in the solar corona, we might further suspect that the average [most prevalent] hydrino paired orbital is near maximum entropy, of perhaps n=1/7 or 1/8 (if Robin's calcs are correct). See http://users.bigpond.net.au/rvanspaa/ however, I should add that Robin will likely disagree with parts of this speculation. It is ironic that perceptive folks, of all persuasion, can seldom agree on anything without first having the ferment of a previous, and vigorous, disagreement. The major spatial difference between hydrogen and hydrino is that in the same volume of a typical H2 molecule, upwards to 4000 of the solar Hy- would fit if they were not charged, but since the charge creates a strong near-field, the actual ability to coexist with normal matter is extremely doubtful at all, and is unknown (to anyone other than Mills, but his present inability to harness this species is probably meaningful). But that is not the end-of-story for using them elsewhere, even if making them on earth is too difficult. Stated another way, why buy the cow when the milk's free? OK, after this preamble (more like a pre-ramble ) we are back to the Hydrino Harvester (c). I have taken the liberty of copywriting this name and idea today for a number of reasons. Mills, despite his admitted genius, has a history of [occasional] plagiarizing the ideas of others without attribution. This continues today, as many corrections in his various revised versions of CQM resulted from the unacknowledged input from his critics: somewhat as 'punishment' it seems for their correct criticism, which makes it doubly wrong - but at least he does continue to make the necessary changes in that oeuvre ... but seldom with proper attribution. Ergo the (c). Anyway, if the Hy- is a real species, then what follows will be of great interest to NASA - and they should get it for free, rather than paying BLP for it (poetic justice). If we are ever going into interplanetary space, or even to colonize the moon, it would be of incredible benefit to "harvest" one of the most incredible propellants which is imaginable - and to do that by "farming" the ionosphere of earth. Coincidentally, this is spatial layer (one sublayer of it) is probably a gigantic but transitory repository for solar Hy-, as they are being continually temporarily captured, or slowed, by earth's magnetic field. Very few may actually get to earth's surface, although megatons arrive daily, are slowed and then continue on towards the Oort cloud and beyond. It makes sense that a magnetic, or electrostatic "Harvester" for these solar-derived hydrinos, placed into low earth-orbit, in a part of the ionosphere where NASA has never wanted to place satellites before (for the obvious reasons), could collect and "neutralize" Hy-s to then be used later for a propellant in interplanetary, or interstellar, exploration. IOW one might imagine several hundred relatively cheap robot harvesters, which contain permanent magnets, a supply of potassium to neutralize with, and an AI computer brain (son of X-box). After scavenging the ionosphere for a few weeks, the robot-collectors will rendezvous with a space-tanker and transfer the booty and go out again, powered by induction from the same materials they are capturing. Simple, on paper, no? Well, OK - if this doesn't pan out in practicality, it might be the premise for a good Sci-Fi tale -- We might call it: "Just Say NO! : The Revolt of the Hy Robots" or something along those lines...

Hi Robin.
 
My back-of the-envelope calculations for a flat panel
solar collector using water as a heat transfer fluid
to heat anhydrous ammonia (or propane) stored in tanks with
nighttime black-plate radiative or daytime cooling tower heat rejection
operating at 10% Carnot efficiency (140-80 F) could easily muster
about 5,000 kW-hr per hectare day.
That comes out to about 4.0 square miles of collector that
can be used for Texas Style barn dances to pay for the Solar Tower losses (where less
than 1.0% heat as work is extracted from the solar-heated air).

Status: O X-Status: Before anyone starts to take what follows too seriously, let me say that it is offered in the "spirit of the season" shall we say. That season being the rather irrational season around Halloween with its ties to the ancient Celts and even to the Egyptians. Hey - I am trying to avoid pumpkin-carving by pretending to be "at work" .... I have to add this caveat, because many normally perceptive individuals tend to go a little gaga about the Egyptians (or the Celts) and their accomplishments. You know... "lost knowledge" and all of that. Don't get me wrong - in the context of what came before, it is almost like the a major explosion in technology took place around the start of the 4th Dynasty, leading many to invent all kinds of hypotheses for that - like "alien" contact and so on. You can buy into the concept of lost knowledge without going all the way to alien-contact, but hey... this time of year, anything goes. Let's don't even go there, at least not precisely all the way to aliens... but instead consider a minor detail of the Pyramid of Cheops - that being the shafts leading from the so-called King's and Queen's chambers. But that in the context of putative "free energy". Here is some good detail: http://www.cheops.org/startpage/thefindings/thefindings.htm ... and I will not go into the various theories regarding the function of the shafts as passageways for the soul etc, except to say that when discovered, two of them were heavily filled with soot. However, there does seem to be a strange Cartouche next to one shaft which translates to the equivalent of "hyperfine" .... ;-) Right. Well, in this context, one must introduce the ancient phenomenon of the "eternal flame" or the "ever-burning lamp" (the original genie's lamp) --- the importance of which symbol and the proven relics thereof cannot be over-emphasized to the mentality of ancient people. The ever-burning lamp was a daily miracle to them - a goal of pilgrimage and a gift from divinity ... especially considering the importance of fire - to early civilization. Unfortunately, the archaeology often gets mixed up with other things, as is the case of Ms. Lloyd here: http://www.americanchronicle.com/articles/viewArticle.asp?articleID=12801 ...but anyway, in a few of the dozens of ancient sites where eternal flames were known to have been going, apparently unattended, and of course worshipped, there has been the prevalent hypothesis that the source of flame was a slow underground seepage of natural gas. This source kept the flames going for centuries, it is said. Many of these were located in caves in areas which have some hydrocarbon geology - and we all know the stories of "coal gas" in the Appalachians of the USA. This explanation is bolstered by the fact that some lamps were extinguished after earthquakes. Anyway - back to the shafts in the Pyramid of Cheops, where of course there is no underground seepage of natural gas, or coal, and any priest who was carrying a secret lamp-refill would have been easily spotted ... consequently - one might be justified to consider whether the shafts themselves could somehow capture of focus a hidden source of energy, which might be involved in either augmenting slow combustion or perhaps in powering a natural iridescence or certain minerals ... or both. (assuming that these were not the lamps of early grave robbers - or of the craftsmen finishing the work, which is the mundane explanation, which we want to avoid at all costs during this special season of alternative reality ) Anyway, I will leave the "trick-or-treat" answer up to your imagination, with the hint that if you look closely at the dimensions of the shafts - it seems that they were trying to make them pretty close to 21 cm on a side. They might have been lined with gold or brass at one time, which would have stripped-away by a later Dynasty to pay the bills. The dimensions are not precise, but perhaps they were good enough for 'Pharaoh-work' ... as the slaves used to say back then.

When Lawrence Summers speculated that innate ability might explain why there are fewer women in math and science, it cost him the presidency of Harvard. A study reported in Science by researchers at the University of British Columbia found that women exposed to bogus scientific theories linking their gender to poor math skills performed more poorly on subsequent math tests. Uncertainty over whether they could do it presumably affected how hard they tried. Professors over 70 also have a notorious stereotype, but I can't remember what it is. 2.

We live now in an age of science, but it is ancient, unfounded religious beliefs that are central to national disputes over the teaching of evolution, stem cell research, abortion, euthanasia and same-sex marriage. A Harvard curriculum committee has therefore recommended that every Harvard student be required to take one course on the interplay between religion and science. It must be framed in the context of social issues. This seems certain to influence other universities. Scientists had better start getting involved before the zealots take over. 3.

But many people still believe a plane crashed there, even though there was no sign of an airplane.

There is a company called JP Aerospace that has an idea of going to space in a balloon. Sounds crazy. Gets even better! They plan an ascender of large size to climb to about 200,000 feet to an enormous derigible transfer station shaped like a star. There whatever cargo is on the ascender will transfer at this station to the space ascender, an even larger and more flimsy craft powered probably by solar electric propulsion. This space ascender would then leave and ascend in a slow circular pathway gaining speed with each orbit, more so after leaving the last traces of atmospheric friction for practical purposes. Ultimately the space ascender should arrive at a true rigid space station in space in synchronous orbit about 20,000 miles up. From there it would return for another load, taking with it anything needing transport back to the surface. They do this, possibilities are endless. This plan places all its parts at one time or another in this hydrino region, and all of these parts could take part in such a hydrino harvest. This comment involving the use of others' technologies and ideas named above together in a useful and practical form is copyrighted by me, Lee M. Castleton, USAF retired. Parts of this idea involve projects and ideas that are copyrighted, patented or trademarked by others who own their respective projects and IP. It is sad that intellectual discourse has come to this, but the deep dyed villains in this whole sordid affair of locking up science in a cocoon of avarice are our senators and ex-vice-presidents who passed the DMCA and other acts that have the net affect of debilitating our research abilities and bringing a digital dark age to all the world except China, Russia, North Korea, and many Muslim countries too numerous to name. Those so called American politicians could not have done a better job, even if they had been foreign agents, of making real the precept of the ancient Chinese military general and philosopher Sun Tzu: "If you would defeat an enemy smarter than you, then you must cause him not to think!" I did not create this crazy world, but along with you all must live in it. Makes me wonder if some of these ideas may be among the thousands that are locked up by the patent bureaus of many countries simply because their governments evaluate them to be of military significance.

Very interesting, and thanks for putting this piece of the puzzle into place. If you are personally in contact with these individuals, I hope you will write them privately to express the same sentiment. That 'puzzle', mentioned above being - how to get space exploration out of the hands of a top-heavy bureaucracy and perhaps into the hands of a nimble corporation or small wealthy country. If for no other reason - then to make it competitive by offering the lowest cost option. NASA is too focused on man-in-space, when instead, space is the perfect environment for artificial intelligence. Actually several candidate countries come to mind - which are possessed with both a top-flight (pun intended) education system, a history of efficient and pragmatic government (desirous of international recognition) and most of all - wealth - particularly oil wealth. Norway would be one. Among companies - one would presently need to merge several types of corporate expertise - Virgin (Branson) with say Chevron and Intel. I suspect that this concept, as complicated as it seems, could still be pulled-off in the short-term for the quarterly profit of Chevron - spread out over five years - if (BIG IF) the ionosphere can be harvested for solar hydrinos. Even if the supply is tinier than the optimists suspect - if there are any at all, that resource could be put together as a step in yet a bigger package - one that would put a population of micro-robotic drones on the moon - to harvest lunar 3He, a proven resource, and then that would be another step-wise wrinkle in a more complicated hybrid system. I don't see the JP "balloon thing" as being very advantageous, otherwise; unless there is this kind of "harvestable" propellant in the ionosphere. And BTW - I'm sure Robin has been thinking about hydrino-induced fusion more than I have, but the Hy+3He reaction would seen to be a "natural" (or Hy + 11B, or Hy + 7Li) given the very small atomic size of the type of solar hydrino-hydride, hypothesized in the original post (i.e. N= 1/7 or 1/8) should they be in the ionosphere. You could probably get to breakeven fusion levels with those using a device as small as a Farnsworth Fusor ... Needless to say, any type of breakeven fusion in a small device in the ionosphere - using air buoyancy to shuttle smaller payloads up with reusable gear - that almost guarantees the availability of lunar payloads for about cost of terrestrial rail transport - seriously: pennies per pound instead of hundreds of dollars per pound. Hey, Branson may be the man ... if can step-back from his numerous overload of involvements, and focus on what is needed in the big-picture for private space exploration. He says that it is his number-one priority.

They got a contract from the government to build a ground takeoff ascender prototype as a model for the real thing if a contract for it materialized. They actually have a working ascender about ninety feet long and about a hundred feet wide in the shape of a 'V'. A picture of it is on their site. Positively dwarfs people standing next to it. Of course the real thing would be an order of magnitude larger. My worry about the hydrino if it existed arises from the idea that energy, like manure, rolls down hill. Energy always seeks the down ward path from a higher energy level to a lower. From previous descriptions by Randall Mills in Vortex and on his site, the production of hydrinos is accompanied by a hugely exothermic reaction greater than any chemical reaction yet a bit less than nuclear thermal output weight for weight of reagents involved. This would lead one to believe that given that our planet is a ...water...planet and has a ...lot...of hydrogen, such a reaction if it got started on this planet would have converted us to a kind of small star for a while on our way to becoming a dead cinder a long time ago and we would not be contemplating our navels here about it. So making hydrinos must be a little harder than Mills has admitted. Other than that, hydrinos would make excellent rocket fuel, as was found out by a Dr Marchese at Rowan University when NIAC funded a phase I study of a 'Black Light Rocket'. A final report was issued, but no further public work was done on something that ought to have been a natural for fuel for a Star Trek type of one stage to orbit shuttle craft. Possibly it was a good experiment and government officials, most of them with large industry backgrounds, buried it out of fear that the world would change if this was developed and their old industry buddies would be out of a job, not being able to sell expensive failure prone junk for astronomical prices to Uncle Sucker. The same job was done on the Tactical High Energy Laser, a truck mounted laser capable of bringing down artillery shells and small 'manpads' that would have saved lives in Israel in the last dustup they had with their religious fanatic jihadist friends last summer. The THEL was quietly shelved in favor of expensive failure prone one-shot-oops-I-missed-spend-another-million-dollars-Harry 'anti-missiles'. The dirty secret of these Patriot missiles and just about every other 'anti-missile- missiles is that they do not work most of the time except to back up propaganda for more government sales. A laser like the THEL and its stepchild the 'Skyguard', a civilian airport version of the same can aim and shoot at the speed of light. It sees it, it kills it; end of story, period. No misses, and even if it did, a reload is just a recharge away. With good design those re-charge times can be minimised. There is also the Free Electron Laser being worked on by the HasyLab in Deutschland. This jewel now is being developed to put out over a hundred thousand watts of steady state lasing power. The only reason these projects have been shelved or delayed can only be to benefit some alternative system whose intellectual property is owned by monopoly interests. Good point about the helium three. The Chinese are working on going to the moon to get it. They get there first and they will lay territorial claim to as much of it as they can. With enough nuclear warheads in MIRV configuration to back up this land grab, I would say that the Americans are in a nuclear space race whether they like it or not, AND whether our President wants to admit it or not. The stakes are nothing less than whether you and I want our grandchildren to live under Chinese hegemony. A political leader that did not realize this would have to be a fool or a 'Manchurian Candidate'. I have a grandson who will be military age in a few years, and shudder to think that he may end up on a military front line crossing Asia from Vladivostok to Tashkent with we Americans and our allies the Russians toe to toe with 75 million Chinese Army troops screaming for our blood. Unlimited energy from helium three would make them strong, and there are ...other... shortages in their country.......water.....food......strategic minerals...............and the shortages are.......growing. There is an American space program critic from the University of Hawaii that calls himself a 'recovering space cadet'. He does not miss any opportunity to criticize our space program. He wants us to drop it altogether, often coming up with reasons that only could be gotten from inside information from sources within the present administration. The current actions of NASA seem to reflect these policies. Like taking two years of fruitless investigation with no action to improve safety of our shuttle fleet, then sending them back with minimal changes. Its almost like the government is hoping for another disaster so that they CAN drop the program and abdicate their responsibility to the American people. This 'critic' goes about his 'rocket equation' with all the tenacity of a crank, and can see no further than the same tiresome chemical rockets that we have been using for decades. Rest assured that some large power like China that has demonstrated having no compunction for slaughtering its critics at home will also have no compunction for using nuclear thermal propulsion as main propulsion for its earth boosters if it needed some extra lift and more payload space per craft. And here we sit with some technologies like the Shawson device and appear to do nothing about it. I know that political rants are not really what this list is all about, but some it this is inseparable from the very things we like to look into. I am just saying out loud what many people must be also thinking. The shuttle needs safety. We should make it safe. Better propulsion systems could possible use the same spaceframe. Can you think of a black light booster set in the place of the shuttle main engines. Get us from earth to orbit to mars and back on one re-fueling! Would'nt have to drop that big tank! Just take it to mars and back and park it at the space station. Trip ought to take less than a couple of months! And that is just one idea. JP Aerospace's system could also be used to provide transport to build in space a large interplanetary exploration ship with its own internal gravity to take us anywhere in this system to prospect for minerals, helium three, or whatever we wanted.

That is becoming clear and it should be obvious why that would be so -- for the simple reason that it requires *free atomic hydrogen* to exist in proximity to extremely hot catalyst ions for a fairly substantial time period (relative to the normal time-frame that hydrogen would remain free and unionized). The "relative" part comes into play because - and this may be important even though you have never heard it stated this way: the catalyst ion with a net positive charge will still have a negative near-field, since the ion is still surrounded by many electrons... which will repel the near-field of atomic hydrogen in a cool plasma. And if the plasma is hot enough to propel the oncoming H past this near-field barrier - then that plasma is generally hot enough to have already ionized the H atom instead. See the problem? Think about free atomic hydrogen. Not protons. Not H2 molecules. Not hydrogen ions of any variety - ONLY neutral atomic hydrogen will do. And all of these hydrogen species are far more likely to turn up in a warm plasma than free atomic hydrogen. If the plasma is hotter you get protons and if it is colder you get either molecules or molecular ions but almost never (percentage wise) do you find the necessary "raw material" for this reaction on earth (except perhaps within a metal matrix ;-) These parameters make it the rarest of the rare situation here - but not in the solar corona, where parameters may be much more favorable ?? who knows but in fact there could be several pathways for them to form in those conditions. With the intense gravitation, hydrino=hydrides may form easily in one step from a flux of protons and tightly paired electrons. Many observers tend to agree with Mills' assessment that a large fraction of the heat of the sun is due to this reaction - rather than to the complex fusion pathway as is generally accepted, and that explains the solar neutrino problem better than the kludges which are now resorted to. I'm pretty sure that the first stage reaction for hydrinos is also far more reversible (re-inflation)than Mills admits-to; and that the production of useful quantities of hydrinos on earth may be hopeless. After burning through $50 million, RM has a couple of vials full, but that is not going to provide cheap energy or anything else, Until NASA finds out for sure what the solar wind consists-of ... as it enters the ionosphere - we will not know if there is any chance of using this potentially gigantic resource. To repeat a lament which has been expressed here before: Seven years after launch, NASA's "Stardust" space capsule returned recently with a bit of comet debris. Will they even look for hydrinos? They are probably in there - from the Oort cloud. At least the parachute opened this time, already giving Stardust more success than its predecessor - the "Genesis" solar wind mission last year, which crashed in Utah after its chute failed to open. Dammit. Many observers really wanted to know if there are substantial hydrinos in the solar wind or not - but no one is sure if NASA is even prepared or equipped to look for them. OTOH - since we know from the aftermath of the Rowan work for NASA which you mentioned that some key people at NASA do have an appreciation for this - there is always the possibility that the whole story about the "failure" of the "Genesis" solar wind mission last year was invented or exaggerated as part of a secrecy plan - so that they would not alert our enemies and competitors (China, USSR, and maybe even the Euros) that they did find a "harvestable" resource. Jones ... Sorry for that last paragraph. How could anyone be so cynical of Governmental motives?

Ha! should be un-ionized, unless hydrogen is orgainizing; or going into labor ;-{ But after cogitating on the overall situation of 'how to harvest' (if, that is, the putative solar wind derived Hy- is available in sufficient quantities) there is an obvious solution. BTW we may already have the visible proof of hydrinos and never have really appreciated it (Thanks to Alfven himself) ... OK first - the balloon idea - forget it; it is a waste of time - as are normal satellite-robots. One does not need to put anything into orbit. A ballon for this task "will not fly" as they are needed in polar regions. Curiously, we can even now, as we speak, view the ripe harvestable "field" and have historically already given it a name: Aurora borealis. Yes the "Northern Lights" as we know are caused by the interaction between the solar wind and ionospehre, that is we know for certain - and what we can only guess at is that this phenomena is caused in part by the Hy- species itself. The Hy- interacts as the Earth's magnetic field and then deflects into the upper atmosphere, where ionized air interacts with the wind for a fleeting instant as it passes by. Very little is captured. There are apparently some controversial spectrographic lines documanted in the Aurorae (more on that later) which were detected some time ago and given assignmetns which did not "look right". A similar effect happens in the southern hemisphere where it is known as the aurora Australis. If those lines are due to the hydrino, then we may already have the proof needed - but no one really knew then what they were. I do not think that even Mills knows about this today. And in another synchonicity, one of Hannes Alfven's fifty year old books is in a personal collection which I have access to. The Purple/violet streaks are the ones of interest - only 60 miles in altitude. It is fortuitous that the higher energy streaks are the lowest in altitude. BTW, there is 20 million amperes at 50,000 volts of continuous power in these lines, spread over a large area - which can also power the harvester itself by induction, and consequently it can be a reusable vehicle closer to an airplane than a satellite; and need not be "launched" at all. The harvester can be towed up to 3 or 4 miles in altitude by a tanker, and then use a monopropellant to blast up to 60 miles for a single harvesting pass of around a thousand mile loop, then return and land conventionally at a special landing strip in Alaska, give up the cargo, refuel and do it all over again - several trips per day. Tons per day are possible. This is doable. There is no need for high-tech ballons, nor for expensive satellites.

Pons and Fleischmann were unaware of Jones' work. They did not and still do not think Jones' neutron claims are valid, and these claims have never been replicated as far as I know. Jones has campaigned against Fleischmann and Pons from the beginning, he denies there has been any excess heat effects, and he has attacked and belittled Fleischmann, Pons, Miles, McKubre and many other researchers even more often than you have. See, for example: http://lenr-canr.org/acrobat/JonesSEchasingano.pdf I know nothing about Jones' Twin Towers claims, and I would not try to judge them without reading a technical article, but from the newspaper accounts I have the impression that they are absurd. It would not surprise me to learn that he has reached an absurd and totally unsupported conclusion that flies in the face of the evidence, the scientific method, and common sense, because that is what he did with cold fusion for 18 years nonstop. When a person's judgement is flawed about one subject, it is likely that he is wrong about other things as well. Not certain, but likely. To paraphrase G. K. Chesteron, when people stop believing in replicated, peer-reviewed experiments published in mainstream journals, they don't believe in nothing -- they believe in anything.

And there's more to come... In fact so-called evolution may be like virtually all natural occurrences in that it comes and goes in very large cycles. Take a look around you and try to figure out where exactly we are right now in the "evolutionary cycle," without placing too much emphasis on our "toys." It could be that the pyramids were in place well before the Egyptians took them over as "interesting" burial places. So the idea of the "major explosion in technology" in ancient Egypt may not be a reasonable fact. Question of course is, what would have promoted this explosion of technology? Anyone looking at the cave paintings in Lascaux, from 15000 years ago, then looking at the Chauve-Pont-D'arc paintings from about 30000 years ago, may see that the older paintings were far "better" than the newer ones (which were quite superb), leading us (well - me, that is) to believe that there was a high degree of civilization somewhere on Earth, before the Egyptian one - a mere 4000 years ago - than current dogma lets us believe.

This is possible, sure, but lately it is seeming less likely that they would appear in PPM quantities in water, or even PPB quantities. The relative percentage is most important if they are to become an energy resource. I'm surprised you didn't mention the "faux-D" possibility, or were you waiting for the proper segue? Look at heavy water. Heavy water is rather pricey already - and deuterium in water may be hundreds of times more common than hydrinos. In fact, for those who have not heard of Robin's hypothesis - it is clearly possible that some of the deuterium which is there already - either came from hydrinos originally, or IS hydrino-based rather than a real neutron, as the small differences in physical properties would be barely discernable, except perhaps that the hydrino-based faux-D is the kind of deuterium which is more easily stipped, as in the Oppenheimer-Phillips reaction. But that is most like a tiny percentabe of all deuterium - so the cost would likely be ... err... "astronomical" ? It is the scarcity and the cost of enrichment which could make the Hydrino Harvester attractive, as an alternative. Even having to go up 60 miles in the polar regions to accomplish this - as expensive as that is - it could easily be the low cost option - who knows without more data ? Very thorough mass spec measurements have regualry taken on water from amny areas since the cold war, especially rain water, to look for traces of atomic bomb testing and other things in PPB quantities, and there would likely have been some indication from that kind of very thorough testing, if much were to be found, outside of the faux-D possibility. The more you research this kind of thing; the less likely it appears that affordable quantities are available in rain water- quantities which can be enriched at a cost comparable to that of tritium for instance.

Besides, China and the USSR (???) are not really enemies, they are just portrayed that way to take our attention off our own leaders. In fact the people of the USA have no real enemies.

Jeff Green / Bloomberg News DETROIT -- General Motors Corp., losing sales to Toyota Motor Corp., will use some of the $9 billion in savings from cost cuts this year to make vehicles that match the Japanese automaker in technology and fuel efficiency, according to people familiar with the strategy. GM's plans include a hybrid-electric vehicle with a battery that recharges at any outlet, improved gasoline engines, hybrid versions of its Silverado pickup trucks and hydrogen-powered fuel cell models that emit only water vapor, according to sources, who didn't want to be identified because the plan isn't public.
