Secondly, if this mysterious vacuum fluctuation (force)is bounded by a material with a dielectric constant significantly higher than that of space, such as the water-laden perimeter of the vortex (or a bubble) it can do more work on either.

That's preposterous. If the voters found out the government was developing nuclear weapons, there would be a snap election and every major member of the ruling party would be tossed out of office. The voters will not tolerate any hint of militarism or fascism. When one person was killed in anti-government march in the 1960s it brought down the government. The uranium came from French power reactors. People protested the shipments in France and Japan, and in many other countries. The daily progress of the ships and their punny armed guard was reported in the mass media. - Jed From vortex-l-request eskimo.com Fri Oct 1 07:41:32 1999 Received: (from smartlst localhost) by mx1.eskimo.com (8.9.1a/8.8.8) id HAA18705;

Could well? Yeah, sure, until a reporter hears about it. The next day it would be on in 30 point type on the front of every newspaper with 6 pages of inside coverage, like the accident yesterday. (I subscribe to the Yomiuri.) A week later the Generals would be hauled before a Parliament Investigation and every single person who had any knowledge of the program would be fired. Actually, they would quit, after they get on their knees and bowed their heads down to the floor in front of the public on prime-time news. That's what the plant manager and President of the nuclear fuel corporation did yesterday. It was broadcast on CNN and every Japanese network. People take responsibility for their actions in Japan. If anyone did anything remotely like this, or even wrote a memo suggesting they develop nuclear weapons, his career would be over. It is a free society with a aggressive press -- more aggressive than ours. Reporters make themselves at home in politicians houses, and ask anything. If George W. Bush was running in Japan, every schlock magazine and newspaper would publish a picture of the triangular fraternity brand on his ass, and they would have in-depth interviews with guys who claim they were George's pushers. The idea that the Japanese military might develop nuclear weapons in secret is the kind of thing you read in a dime-novel American thriller written by some jerk who knows zippo about Japan. It is utter garbage. They only thing they do in secret is take bribes for overpriced, non-working weapons systems from corrupt manufacturers. - Jed From vortex-l-request eskimo.com Fri Oct 1 08:54:52 1999 Received: (from smartlst localhost) by mx1.eskimo.com (8.9.1a/8.8.8) id IAA17234; Fri, 1 Oct 1999 08:49:43 -0700 Resent-Date: Fri, 1 Oct 1999 08:49:43 -0700 Message-Id: <3.0.6.32.19991001114824.007aee00 pop.mindspring.com> X-Sender: jedrothwell pop.mindspring.com X-Mailer: QUALCOMM Windows Eudora Light Version 3.0.6 (32) Date: Fri, 01 Oct 1999 11:48:24 -0400 To: vortex-L eskimo.com From: Jed Rothwell Subject: Human Error Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Resent-Message-ID: <"P9gEi.0.2D4.NWDzt" mx1> Resent-From: vortex-l eskimo.com Reply-To: vortex-l eskimo.com X-Mailing-List: archive/latest/30705 X-Loop: vortex-l eskimo.com Precedence: list Resent-Sender: vortex-l-request eskimo.com Status: O X-Status: Idiotic mistakes are in the news. They remind us that no machine is safe from human nature, and no technology that depends up perfect performance can be relied upon. The accident at the nuclear plant yesterday was caused by three workers mixing in 16 kg of materials instead of 2.4 kg. If they were not doomed I might call them the Three Stooges (San-baka Taishou in Japanese). If the tank had been designed properly, the accident could never have occured in the first place, no matter how much U you cram in. According to experts quoted the N. Y. Times, correct tank size and geometry can prevent this kind of accident. For example a tall, thin tube shape would prevent most neutrons from stiking another U atom, damping a chain reaction. The space probe sent to Mars burned up because the manufacturer computed thrust in pounds and the JPL technicians thought the units were in newtons. Why anyone would use English measurements in this day and age is beyond me. Hundreds of millions of dollars down the tubes because people insist on using a confusing system of measurements that has been obsolete for 150 years! - Jed From vortex-l-request eskimo.com Fri Oct 1 09:27:12 1999 Received: (from smartlst localhost) by mx1.eskimo.com (8.9.1a/8.8.8) id JAA27603; Fri, 1 Oct 1999 09:22:58 -0700 Resent-Date: Fri, 1 Oct 1999 09:22:58 -0700 Message-ID: <00ae01bf0c31$4efe9060$92441d26 fjsparber> From: "Frederick Sparber" To: Subject: Re: Lassos, Yo-Yo-s and the Casimir Force Date: Fri, 1 Oct 1999 10:20:27 -0700 MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: multipart/related; boundary="----=_NextPart_000_0006_01BF0BF6.94C71A80"; type="multipart/alternative" X-Priority: 3 X-MSMail-Priority: Normal X-Mailer: Microsoft Outlook Express 5.00.2615.200 X-MimeOLE: Produced By Microsoft MimeOLE V5.00.2615.200 Resent-Message-ID: <"eA-M72.0.Dl6.Y_Dzt" mx1> Resent-From: vortex-l eskimo.com Reply-To: vortex-l eskimo.com X-Mailing-List: archive/latest/30706 X-Loop: vortex-l eskimo.com Precedence: list Resent-Sender: vortex-l-request eskimo.com Status: O X-Status: This is a multi-part message in MIME format. ------=_NextPart_000_0006_01BF0BF6.94C71A80 Content-Type: multipart/alternative; boundary="----=_NextPart_001_0007_01BF0BF6.94D04240" ------=_NextPart_001_0007_01BF0BF6.94D04240 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="Windows-1252" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable =20 Equipment: a.. conical pendulum - shelf 5A=20 b.. table clamp, clamp - hall cabinet=20 c.. support rod - bucket beside hall cabinet=20 d.. two 200 g masses - shelf 4D=20 e.. billiard ball with hook - ball drawer=20 f.. string=20 Theory: An object experiencing uniform circular motion must have an = unbalanced force acting on it, directed toward the center of the = circular path.=20 Description: The billiard ball has a mass of about 200 g, so it is = balanced by one of the hooked 200 g masses.

The colder air is, the more >dense >it is. (air molecules packed closer together than >relatively hotter air) Do you not see that it is the density imballance that causes the lift? Do you not see that it is gravity that pulls the more dense beneath the less dense? Do you not see that the heat in the balloon is not being used up for propulsion? That it sets density off balance, then gravity takes over and supplies the energy of motion to the lift itself? You agree the same as in the bubble. Is it not gravity that raises the bubble? Science speaks of a buoyancy force. Is buoyancy a force of nature? Is it not really gravity that is pulling the more dense beneath the less dense? And if space is fluid and space is more dense than light, would not gravity pull the more dense space beneath the less dense light, thus repel? School children have written to me and say they understand these most basic fundamental concepts, but their teachers don't. This list of such high thinkers seems baffeled by the concepts. Has the whole world gone mad with delusion? Dogmatized by science and hypnotized by some wicked spiritual lie. Looks that way to me. "build the whirlpool, that's all it takes" How long will ignorance keep us down?

(The WWII Manhattan Project, our own nuclear weapons development program, was kept out of the press by means of precisely those sorts of severe sanctions, despite the fact that many people in the physics community knew about it and, according to your reasoning, should has passed that information to reporters who, in turn, should have printed it.) --Mitchell Jones}*** (I subscribe to the >Yomiuri.)

Frankly, I think they are smarter than that. If so, then controlling elements in both the executive and legislative branches of the Japanese government are aware of the existence of the program, and a sufficient number of intelligence operatives are in place in the mainstream Japanese press to keep such a story out of the mass media. The likelihood, in short, is that the Japanese government has procedures in place to keep top secret information from leaking to the mainstream press that are very much like those employed by the U.S. government. --Mitchell Jones}*** Actually, they would quit, after they get on their knees >and bowed their heads down to the floor in front of the public on >prime-time news.

No, gravity isn't supplying the energy, the burning of propane in the heater is supplying the energy. If you don't burn propane the balloon won't rise.

Give me an example where this happens. I seem to recall an experiment where a star that was behind the sun during a total eclipse of the sun was visible due to gravity bending the light (photons) of the star. If gravity did not ATTRACT light the star would not have been visible, but it was. This experiment has been repeated many times and gravity bends (attracts) the light by exactly the predicted amount. > School children have written to me and say they understand these most basic > fundamental concepts, but their teachers don't.

Vince agrees the heat is not being used for propulsion but says gravity is not either.

It only sets the relative density off balance. It does not supply energy of motion. And I bet a good physicists could show the weight the balloon and the distance traveled cannot be explained by the amount of heat in the ballon by thermodynamic reasoning, and I bet is not just a little unexplained but %90 unexplained as is the motion of the spiral galaxy in Vera Rubins's study. > > You agree the same as in the bubble.

Gravity pulls >less >on the bubbles mass than the surrounding mass of liquid and the bubble >rises. Saying gravity pulls less on the bubble's mass than the surrounding mass of liquid is the same as saying gravity pulls more on the surrounding mass than the bubble's mass. Gravity makes the bubble rise either way you say it. Take the set up out of a gravity field and there would be no motion. Same with a hot air balloon. > > > > Science speaks of a buoyancy force. Is buoyancy a force of nature? > > Are you saying the surrounding air is MORE dense BENEATH the >balloon than ABOVE it? No, the air is more dense outside the balloon than in it. But it does get less dense the higher you go. So it would be correct to say that air below the ballon is more dense the air above it. > > And if space is fluid and space is more dense than light, would not >gravity > > pull the more dense space beneath the less dense light, thus repel? > >Give me an example where this happens. > I seem to recall an experiment where a star that was behind the sun >during >a total eclipse of the sun was visible due to gravity bending the light >(photons) >of the star. >If gravity did not ATTRACT light the star would not have been visible, but >it >was. > This experiment has been repeated many times and gravity bends (attracts) >the light by exactly the predicted amount. NO IT HAS NOT! It has never reached 1.75 from every account I have heard. Science dances around the exactness of the measurements with so called error bars, or as Vera Rubin writes in her article science "teases the numbers" to make it work out.

I recommend people to go to the Dennis Lee shows with an open mind and closed wallet. I feel the show is unintentionally entertaining - you will never see a more fanatical raving mixture of conspiracy theory, Jesus talk, and butchered science all wrapped into a giant pyramid scam. Early reports say that most of his audience seems to buy it . . . I call that a high cost of sleeping through science class. This is an important time for Dennis, he has just about financially drained his current crop of followers from his 96 tour which promised the same damn stuff - now is his chance to recruit all new sources for financiing. Dennis has been stringing people along with "I'll install them in a few months" for 12 years - maybe he can someday break Newmans 30 year record. I encourage people to alert TV and newspaper investigative reporters along the route to this operation. Use search engines to find them and then give them the show information and my url at: http://www.phact.org/e/dennis.html I can offer more information offlist on working with the press. There are even some brave people who have been passing out information on Dennis's real history before the shows. Bring a meter and offer to expose the improper input power readings. (it turns that Jim Murphy was asked by Dennis to fake OU by using wrong amp meter resistors). So again, do go to the show near you - you will never hear a snake oil salesman work a crowd like Dennis does.

The thing was in no danger of exploding. Here are the facts as reported on the Yomiuri English home page and elsewhere in the Japanese press. - JR In order to remove the water, JCO workers broke part of the water-circulating pipe and injected into the tank boron compounds, which are believed to absorb neutrons. ['Believed to' is a funny way to put it -- it's a translation.] As radioactivity remained high, the staff worked in shifts of a few minutes each. Despite such precautions, some workers were found to have exposure levels of up to 91.3 millisieverts, compared with 50 msv, the annual maximum permissible level of exposure to radiation according to government guidelines.

Well Rick, according to Glaisher's ascent on Sept. 5, 1862: Before the ascent his pulse was 76/min, 90/min 10,000 ft, 100/min@20,000 ft, 110/min at higher elevations. "his inspirations increased also", and he became insensible at 29,000 ft. He figured he had reached 37,000 feet , because when he passed out at 29,000 the balloon was rising at 1,000 ft/minute and when he regained consciousness 13 minutes later the balloon was falling at 2,000 ft/minute. The accuracy of his conclusions has been questioned. :-) OTOH, if you absorb the 120 Cubic Ft of H2 with 0.12 Ft^3 of Pd or charcoal you can get Overunity balloon power?

That's why the EUV is sometimes called the vacuum ultraviolet. So the question becomes, what fluorescing compound dissolved in the electrolyte could reveal EUV like that in an electrolytic cell running a potassium carbonate electrolyte below the boiling point? It would have to be something that didn't inhibit the dissociation of hydrogen at the nickel cathode, because Mills' reaction requires neutral atoms of H rather than molecules of H2.

Park Friday, 1 Oct 99 Washington, DC 1. MISTAKE ONE: NASA FLUNKS METRIC CONVERSION. Converting from one system of units to another has been the downfall of countless students of science. Now we learn that confusion over units also spelled doom for the Mars Climate Orbiter. NASA is scurrying to figure out how the error could have gone undetected, but the most shocking revelation is that the agency that has come to symbolize high-technology has not fully converted to metric. A spokesman at NIST seemed unconcerned by the glacial progress of the metric conversion initiative. Metrification, he explained, will come gradually with usage as the younger generation is exposed to it. 2. MISTAKE TWO: JAPANESE WORKERS ADD TOO MUCH URANIUM. This is reported to be the world's 60th criticality accident since 1945. The problem occurred at a uranium processing plant when too much uranium was added to a mixing tank. The off-site risk appears to be small, but the incident reawakens public concern just as there were signs that the moribund nuclear power industry in the US might still have a pulse. It may be significant that in all the news stories about the accident, the amount of uranium involved was given in pounds rather than kilograms. 3. MISTAKE THREE: DEMOCRATS THREATEN TO LAUNCH BIG PUSH ON CTBT. Yesterday, Majority Leader Trent Lott (R-MS) called their bluff, scheduling an Oct. 8 vote on the test ban treaty, without benefit of hearings and after only ten hours of debate. It was seen as a test of party loyalty, and influential Sen. John Warner (R-VA), who was believed to be leaning toward the treaty, announced that he now planned to vote against it. Under those circumstances it would be unlikely that the treaty would get the needed 67 votes. That set off a flurry of negotiating. The latest word is that there is an agreement to put off the vote until Oct. 18. 4. MISTAKE FOUR: WHAT'S NEW GOOFS IN FREE ELECTRICITY STORY. We apologize to the Wall Street Journal. WN reported that the WSJ had carried a full-page ad on Sep 17 for a demonstration of free- electricity (WN 24 Sept 99). Wrong! The ad was actually carried by USA Today, although the WSJ carried such an ad two years ago (WN 18 Jul 97). Dennis Lee, CEO of Better World Technologies, has now launched his 45 city tour. At a meeting in Columbus, Ohio Lee urged people to sign up to get a free electricity machine installed in their homes and get disconnected from the grid before the Y2K crisis. He explained that the government's plan is to deliberately create a crisis so "they can declare martial law and take your guns away." He said their ad had gotten the attention of "just about every attorney general in the country." He wouldn't actually demonstrate the free electricity technology. "If you show a free electricity machine," he explained, "they will shut you down." He said he did that in 1988 and they put him jail. "I'm doing this for one reason only--God said 'do it.'"

"I never thought about critical mass." Several of the worker's bosses also told police that "the workplace was characterized by inertia," admitting some stipulated procedures were skipped in the past. . . . According to the operating manual, workers must put the material in a dissolution tank and mechanically transfer the material through a pipe into the sedimentation tank. The three workers who were exposed to radiation skipped the two procedures. Instead, they put the material in stainless containers and poured the material slowly into the sedimentation tank through funnels. The operating manual stipulates that up to 2.4 kilograms of uranium may be processed for fuel during one operation. But it was revealed that workers were trying to process about 16 kilograms of uranium. "It is possible that they skipped the procedures in an attempt to process a large quantity of uranium efficiently," Makoto Morita, chief of the general affairs department of the JCO office. "It is possible that this was done so in accordance with normal workplace practice."

This sounds a lot like a silica gel material. I think it even has a trade name, something like Aerogel. The material I am thinking of is a silica gel that is only about 1/1000 silica, the rest being air. However, the air spaces are so small, very much less than the wavelength of visible light, that light is not scattered like in colloids and such. The light propagates as if through a uniform medium. And since it has so little silica in it, its index of refraction is barely greater than air. Therefore, a piece of it is almost indistinguishable from air. It also has very low mass density and low thermal conducitvity. I saw a piece of it once, maybe about three years ago. BTW, the finished product is not a gel. However, I think a gel process is used to make it. ===== Michael J. Schaffer __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

EW: In my 12 years at FAA, I was appalled at the decline in the manner in which technical oversight of maintenance of the air traffic equipment was performed. When I first started, I was told by older technicians that things had slipped a lot in recent years (1986), but we were getting newer equipment. The newer equipment required less intensive maintenance, but it had been bought with the promise that cutbacks in staffing could be immediate and drastic. I saw one radar pressed into service against all good technical advice (I wasn't allowed into that conference, even though I was working on the installation), mandated from Washington, in order to meet a congressional deadline, only to learn of a couple of dozen outages in the following month, which went unrecorded in the logs. The cutbacks were made in technical staff, not in managerial, but the initial need for intense technical proficiency on the new equipment went unfilled to a large part. There were many, many unscheduled outages of radar due to technical incompetence, which was bad enough, but the long term result was that the respect for technical proficiency is sharply diminished. People gain advances in the agency based on quotas and being 'team players'. So, why don't we have more planes bumping into each other? There was a lot of room for error in the system, but that shrinks every year. The main reason is that pilots make the decisions. Air traffic controllers only give advice, although you wouldn't know it if you heard them talk. My guess is that in the Japanese nuclear industry, like in Paducah, KY, people failed to take expert advice seriously, perhaps largely because clowns like to disguise themselves as experts, so all experts start to look like clowns. If prestige is not based on ability (meritocracy), it is based on much less optimal characteristics, like how good you can make your supervisor look. I am presently aware of a lawsuit against FAA filed by a techician, whom I believe to be highly competent, who was fired for alleged incompetence. It has been quite a learning experience.

If you can't believe that, do you have any alternative theories, such as the idea that the probe might have been "shot down" somehow? I gather that this probe would have been able to give us much higher resolution photos of Martian "Anomalies" such as the "face" "Cydonia" and etc. Do you think there could have been any possibility of deliberate sabotage or anything like that? It's great to have someone like yourself here with actual JPL experience. Welcome. Jim Ostrowski At least I sincerely > hope not. Seems silly at first, but makes me wonder.

That's an interesting question. At the moment, the answer is probably no. However, given the direction in which the U.S. is headed, it seems obvious to me that the answer to that question could change in short order. Logically, any parasitic elite that wishes to retain control over its host population should implement a nuclear weapons development program, because without such weapons, *any* nation becomes a potential target for a U.S. backed "UN peacekeeping force", once the proper pretext has been set up. Indeed, I am not surprised that the advocates of global government, with virtual uniformity, are also advocates of nuclear non-proliferation. A gang of U.N. thugs can be assembled which is capable of successfully invading any nation on earth, except a nuclear nation. In that case, the risk of a horrific counterstrike simply becomes too great. --MJ}*** >How about Brazil, Cuba, or Zimbabwe? I don't think so! Nuclear weapons are >useless. ***{The Japanese have already been brought to their knees once by means of nuclear weapons, and there are guaranteed to be people in the Japanese military who have drawn the proper conclusion from that fact--to wit: that if Japan is to be safe from nuclear intimidation in the future, it must possess nuclear weapons of its own. --MJ}*** Everyone knows that China will not use theirs except in extreme >duress or perhaps if a supreme ruler goes insane. ***{Top Chinese leaders routinely threaten to launch nuclear missiles at the United States and brag that, due to their overpopulation problem, they would actually benefit from a nuclear exchange.

They are friends, attend the same parties, send their children to the same elite private schools, and they all "go along in order to get along." This cozy relationship exists because, by virtue of the vastness of the regulatory structure and the complexity of the laws, *connections* are essential to success in most industries. What this means in practice is that a story which the government wants to squelch will *be* squelched--in the major media. And, since the mass of the population gets its information exclusively from the major media, it follows that when a story fails to appear there it might as well not exist at all, from the standpoint of its effects on the outcome of elections, and, thus, on the policies of government. Bottom line: in order to control a democratic nation, a parasitic elite merely needs to control the mass media, since the common man gets his information only from approved sources, and believes what he is told. [Controlling a republic is quite another matter. A republic (e.g., America as designed by the founders) is a nation with a constitutionally limited government, and an electoral system carefully designed to prevent mob rule. In such a nation, a would-be parasitic elite would have to control *all* the media, in order to squelch a story, because the electorate of such a nation is dominated by persons who think for themselves.] --Mitchell Jones}*** They might be able >to plant stories from time to time.

What is required, and what is in fact the reality of the situation, is that the owners of the mass media behave as if they are a part of the ruling elite. They do this because their rise to media preeminence was greased by favors from persons in the power structure, and, now that they are members of that power structure themselves, they return the favor. This means that stories which would loosen the parasitic elite's grip on the reins of power will be killed. This occurs routinely, despite not being mentioned in the historical pablum that is served up to naive students in the public schools, and I have no doubt that the situation in Japan is no different than here. --MJ}*** > > > The likelihood, in short, is that the Japanese government has > procedures in place to keep top secret information from leaking > to the mainstream press that are very much like those employed > by the U.S. government. > >The U.S. government has never been able to keep important secrets out of >the press. ***{You have to distinguish between the mainstream media and the independent media. The mainstream media are the exclusive source of news for the conformist masses who dominate elections in democratic nations. If the mainstream media ignore a story, it cannot threaten the power structure, and thus the ruling elite isn't likely to worry about it. They don't care if some small circulation journal breaks a story that would transform the political landscape if widely believed, because their cronies control the media which are required to give the story wide dissemination. Bottom line: all the Japanese authorities need to do to contain the suggestion that they are using weapons grade uranium, is to put out the word that the story needs to be squelched *in the mass media*. They don't care what we say about it here on vortex, or if small, independent Japanese media pick up the story, because the independent media lack the ability to influence elections. --MJ}*** > >- Jed ***{I should reiterate, before closing this message, that my primary objections to the present mass media explanation of the Japanese nuclear accident are *technical*. I simply do not see how such an accident would be possible if they were processing reactor grade uranium. Think about it: do you really believe that all one needs to do to produce a massive energy release is to mix some mildly enriched uranium hexafluoride with nitric acid? U235 only produces 2.5 neutrons per fission, and they are fast neutrons (average energy, about 1 MeV) with very low capture cross sections. Thus when working with reactor grade uranium (which is mostly U238) you need a moderator--a carefully chosen low-A material with a small neutron capture cross section (e.g., carbon)--to slow the neutrons down enough to make the reaction go. This is a deliberate safety precaution. Reactor grade uranium, by definition, is enriched *just enough* so that a carefully designed reaction vessel is required to make the reaction go. What that means is that an accident of the type described is *physically impossible*, if we presume that reactor grade uranium was being used. Thus I regard this accident as *smoking gun proof* that the Japanese are engaged in a clandestine nuclear weapons development program. And to that I say: good for them! --Mitchell Jones}*** From vortex-l-request eskimo.com Sat Oct 2 11:38:16 1999 Received: (from smartlst localhost) by mx1.eskimo.com (8.9.1a/8.8.8) id LAA10192; Sat, 2 Oct 1999 11:36:32 -0700 Resent-Date: Sat, 2 Oct 1999 11:36:32 -0700 Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" X-Sender: mjones pop.jump.net Message-Id: In-Reply-To: <001601bf0cf7$2065a150$5940ddcf Craig> References: <3.0.6.32.19991001114824.007aee00 pop.mindspring.com> <2of1Nz1oq9VQz9tCYmRNW030tyZ7 4ax.com> Date: Sat, 2 Oct 1999 13:20:47 -0500 To: vortex-l eskimo.com From: Mitchell Jones Subject: Re: Human Error Resent-Message-ID: <"ugmTi1.0.AV2.m2bzt" mx1> Resent-From: vortex-l eskimo.com Reply-To: vortex-l eskimo.com X-Mailing-List: archive/latest/30740 X-Loop: vortex-l eskimo.com Precedence: list Resent-Sender: vortex-l-request eskimo.com Status: O X-Status: >>The space probe sent to Mars burned up because the manufacturer computed >>thrust in pounds and the JPL technicians thought the units were in newtons. >>Why anyone would use English measurements in this day and age is beyond >>me.

Harrigan keeps one of these nearby at all times, and wears it in a holster on his belt when he leaves the house. But that is a story for another article."

This is getting more and more impossible to believe. Apparently some scientific illiterate was in charge of spin control for this incident, and concocted a ludicrous cover story which implies that reactor grade uranium hexafluoride, which is available in massive quantities in all the advanced countries and in many others that are not advanced, could simply be mixed with nitric acid in a stainless steel bucket and used to silently kill huge numbers of people, if the circumstances were appropriately chosen. If such a story were true, all terrorists would have to do would be obtain some reactor grade uranium hexafluoride on the black market and replicate this absurd scenario at a location where large numbers of people could be counted on to remain nearby long enough to acquire a lethal dose--e.g., at the Super Bowl, or in a broom closet at a large apartment complex, or at a rock concert, etc.--and the results would be utterly horrific. Thus, if this story is to be believed, we shouldn't be worrying about black market plutonium from the former Soviet Union, but about black market uranium hexafluoride that could be obtained in most nations. And, of course, nuclear power becomes, by virtue of this obvious lie, infinitely more sinister and dangerous than the worst of the prior technophobic scare stories ever painted it to be. --Mitchell Jones}*** From vortex-l-request eskimo.com Sun Oct 3 00:14:49 1999 Received: (from smartlst localhost) by mx1.eskimo.com (8.9.1a/8.8.8) id AAA17407; Sun, 3 Oct 1999 00:12:52 -0700 Resent-Date: Sun, 3 Oct 1999 00:12:52 -0700 Date: Sun, 3 Oct 1999 02:18:41 -0500 X-Sender: temalloy metro.lakes.com (Unverified) Message-Id: In-Reply-To: <2of1Nz1oq9VQz9tCYmRNW030tyZ7 4ax.com> References: <3.0.6.32.19991001114824.007aee00 pop.mindspring.com> <3.0.6.32.19991001114824.007aee00 pop.mindspring.com> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" To: vortex-l eskimo.com From: thomas Malloy Subject: Re: Excuses, excuses Resent-Message-ID: <"Vve2Z2.0.rF4.q7mzt" mx1> Resent-From: vortex-l eskimo.com Reply-To: vortex-l eskimo.com X-Mailing-List: archive/latest/30748 X-Loop: vortex-l eskimo.com Precedence: list Resent-Sender: vortex-l-request eskimo.com Status: O X-Status: >It sounds more like a typical excuse "designed for the layman" to me. >Regards, > >Robin van Spaandonk Richard C. Hoagland, NASA gadfly, thinks so too. I just listened to Art Bell's interview of Richard on 09/23/99 on real audio. In a series of interviews on this venue, Richard has stated that he believes that there is a cabal of occultists. These people are in positions of power and wealth. Some of them are in NASA. They want to keep high resolution photos of Cydonia from the public. This also applies to pictures of artifacts on the moon, UFO's and the "aliens"that come out of them. Only there is no evidence to indicate that they come from anywhere else but here. I prefer the explanation that they have the ability to enter other dimentions myself. I applaud Mr. Richard's efforts to dig out these people's activities. Since I am a Christian who believes in scriptural inerrorancy, I also believe that there are people who worship Lucifer as God. Their adgenda is to bring about a one world government. Their name for this is the New World Odor, I mean Order. In other words, Mr. Richard's beliefs exactly parallel mine. However since Richard is not a Christian, their activities make no sense to him, where as they exactly fit with the biblical paradigm. Why they would be so interested in keeping what ever is at Cydonia out of the public's eye mystifies me however. I also question the public's inability to handle official acknowledgement of UFO's without going into a panic. I can understand them not wanting the public to know that they are working with the "aliens" however. If the info for the thrusters was that screwed up, how did that prove get all the way to Mars? Don't they have to use it for midcourse corrections?

The rotation continued to be in the counterclockwise direction, even when the thread was turned upside down!

One type of spiral will always unwind in the counterclockwise direction, and the other type will always unwind in the clockwise direction (when viewed from above).

I read your response, went and used the toilet, flushed it, and sure enough the water swirls Counterclockwise, too. :-) After reversing the string as you suggested I went to a 20 lb monofilament fishing line and got some Clockwise rotation, but the preferred rotation is CCW with angular acceleration until the line torsion resists it. I had reasoned that a transverse "ZPE Wave" would pass from inside the glass jar (with Index of Refraction; sin(incidence)/sin(refraction ~= 1.5 and impart a torque to it giving it spin. The jar is from 28 Oz. of *Prego* Spaghetti sauce, (with mushrooms)so I have several to try. :-) Filled with water it must weigh close to a Kg, and it still does it, but the monofilament line is rough on the fingers. One might try a Plumb Bob, I guess.

Air is paramagnetic which means it will be atracted by the aircraft. I'm still interested in studying what effect this will have on the situation. In fact it is Oxygen that is paramagnetic. Nitrogen is diamagnetic but not enough to counter for the oxygen. This could mean that oxygen is attracted more to the aircraft and this would be very good for the air intakes to the engines. Would it be possible to construct an oxygen enriching machine that works with air and magnetic fields? This could revoultionize the combustion engine. It would lower fuel consumption and be good for the environment. Diffusion casued by heat would be an effect that would work against this magnetic refinery.

I'm a Christian, however I think "churches" organized under Internal Revenue Service 901(c)(3) rules also serve the ends of government in general, perhaps incidentally furthering the worship of Lucifer (The Masonic "Great Architect"). Disputes between quarrelling "Christians" are interestingly frequently settled not in "Christian" churhes, but in Luciferian ones often referred to as "courthouses". I've know of cases where Masonic "Funerals" have actually been held in courtrooms. It is a rather common occurrence for marriages to be held there, as well. In any case, in order for "Christian" men and women to get married ANYWHERE, they have to first obtain a licence from government, by going first down to the good old courthouse/luciferian church. Pastors of so called Christian churches amazingly will not perform a marriage ceremony unless the couple first obtains this license. The New World "Order" takes on a somewhat different meaning when you use the meaning of the word "order" to indicate a religious "brotherhood" of some kind or another. Could this "botherhood" be the Masonic "Order"? All you judges let me hear you say "Amen"! Halleluya! Everybody's all got the same religion at last! Hey, all you so called Atheists...when's the last time y'all went down to de courthouse to pay yer repec's to de Lawd Lucifer? We'll if y'haven't recently you better just be carefull and not drive over the speed limit or anything, because his minyuns l'getcha, and in that case de Lawd just might have to increase your "donation" rate.

That's true.

How about becomming a Soverign or State Citizen statis? When the government spells out your name in capital letters, as it does on marriage licenses and drivers licenses, it makes you a corporation and subject to federal jurisdiction. The problem with opting out of the Federal system and into State citizenship is making a living. >The New World "Order" takes on a somewhat different meaning when you use >the meaning of the word "order" to indicate a religious "brotherhood" of >some kind or another.

These kind of events just underscore the desperate need for a non-centralized, non-polluting form of energy generation. We should take this event as an opportunity to demand loudly that our leadership shut down the nuclear industry now, and fund alternative energy research. They have to wake up to fact that the money that they get from this industry means nothing after accidents like this happen.

However, another test is to measure the length of the thread at the beginning, when the weight is hanging from the thread but has been held and prevented from rotating, and then measure the length of the thread at the end, when equilibrium has been established and all rotation has ceased. If the unwinding of the spiral is the correct explanation, then the thread should be longer at the end than at the beginning. And, sure enough, it is: I tried it with a 20 inch cotton thread, and found that the thread had lengthened by 3/8th inch when the rotation ceased.

The suspended spring that runs like Gangbusters on a cotton (twisted spiral thread) won't do squat on a 20 lb. test monofilament line. However, the Glass Jar will slowly accelerate and rotate CCW when tension is applied using the monofilament line, and if set down and relaxed so that the torsion bias is released so that it will not oscillate, it will rotate CCW on each try, whether or not the jar is filled with 28 oz. of water. This suggests that a test using a low mass, low friction turntable with the glass jar sitting on it would be in order, to see if there are Zero Point Fluctuation Waves at work here, as proposed Cyclones-Hurricanes and other Vortex energy phenomena. IOW, when transverse Vacuum Fluctuation Waves of any "polarization" pass through the glass walls, or the water-laden walls of a Hurricane they are deflected-refracted from the "primary ray" in proportion to the index of refraction; N = sin(incident)/sin(refracted). N for the glass jar ~= 1.5, giving a refraction angle of about 42 degrees and possibly a Zero Point Fluctuation Torque on the Jar. How do you propose to measure the index of refraction of the walls of a Hurricane or Waterspout as opposed to the walls of a glass jar or the vortex of a toilet flush? :-) I'm really not into making free energy motors these days, that's Newman, Lee, and Dennard's job. :-) Regards, Frederick From vortex-l-request eskimo.com Sun Oct 3 17:49:25 1999 Received: (from smartlst localhost) by mx1.eskimo.com (8.9.1a/8.8.8) id RAA29774; Sun, 3 Oct 1999 17:48:30 -0700 Resent-Date: Sun, 3 Oct 1999 17:48:30 -0700 From: Tstolper aol.com Message-ID: <8682bae3.25295359 aol.com> Date: Sun, 3 Oct 1999 20:48:25 EDT Subject: Mills at ACS Meeting?

Impressive excess energy numbers. I assume that the fluent translation was done by Jed Rothwell. The article answered a couple of questions I had: 1) Why tungsten for the cathode, considering how brittle tungsten is? Answer: tungsten has a high atomic weight, which Ohmori & Mizuno consider desirable from a theoretical standpoint. 2) Did Ohmori or Mizuno ever try molybdenum, which isn't brittle, and which has a very high melting point (not as high as tungsten, but a lot higher than platinum)? Answer: in one run, which gave good results, they did try a cathode that was 50%W-50%Mo. That still leaves the question of whether anyone has tried 100% molybdenum. Ohmori & Mizuno end their article by saying that they don't think it would be hard to scale up to 1000 kW or even 10,000 kW (that's 1 to 10 megawatts). But who will try to scale up a device with a cathode that fails within an hour?

The "divine right of Kings" does not hold up if the alleged king rules unjustly. Anyway the current government as it stands today was instituted by Abraham Lincoln thruough the enforcement of the "Federal" Constitution as revised by the 14th Amendmant. There is nothing about the "Federal" Constitution which indicates to me that it was "Instituted" by God, you will not find any similar kind of God given government described in the Bible. The Ancient Hebrews, for example, only had a "judge" for each of the 12 tribes and THAT WAS IT.

Toups Technology Previews 1999 Institute Of New Energy Symposium Keynote Address: MagneGas(TM) Process Is Over Unity Energy Content Of Clean-Burning Gas Nearly Triple Of Electricity Used To Create It 'Only A Beginning,' Says R. M. Santilli, Ph.D., LARGO, Fla., Aug. 24 /PRNewswire/ -- When former Nobel prize nominee Ruggero M. Santilli, Ph.D. presents Toups Technology Licensing, Inc.'s (OTC Bulletin Board: TOUP - news) MagneGas(TM) at the INE-99 Symposium in Salt Lake City, Utah, on August 27, he will be announcing the discovery of a renewable, clean-burning, non-fossil fuel manufacturing process that gives back more energy than it takes to make it. Developed by TTL in collaboration with Dr. Santilli, the MagneGas process generated 2.78 times more energy in the form of combustible gas than it took to make the gas according to an independent third party certification. ``A level of efficiency over one simply means that we have a very effective way of extracting energy that already exists,'' said Leon Toups, TTL's President and CEO. With a machine that produces nearly three times the energy that it takes to run the machine, the MagneGas process has the potential to be a source of virtually limitless clean, renewable energy. About the business implications of such a discovery, Toups said, ``With such broad applications and favorable economics, it makes sense to partner this discovery with established fuel providers who can help to bring this important breakthrough to the world market quickly.'' The Discovery: The MagneGas(TM) Process: A combustible gas is produced by creating an electric arc in a magnetically treated liquid containing carbon (such as antifreeze, waste oils or liquid waste like sewage or industrial solvents). Energy Ratio: The energy content of MagneGas is greater than the electric energy (measured at the panel) needed for its production in the current ratio of 2.78 to one. Every kilowatt of electricity used in the production of MagneGas corresponds to 3,412 British Thermal Units (BTU). Each kilowatt produces MagneGas containing 7,144 BTU plus 2,318 BTU in heat, for a total of 9,461 BTU. This phenomenon is referred to as an ``over-unity production,'' or simply, ``over-unity.'' The best-known example of over-unity energy is a nuclear power plant, where excess energy originates in the nuclei of uranium. In the case of MagneGas, excess energy originates in the liquid used for its production. The over-unity of both nuclear energy and MagneGas is in full agreement with the principle of conservation of energy. An over-unity value of 2.78 was established by numerous tests and measurements conducted by TTL technicians under Dr. Santilli's supervision and verified by an independent organization certified by the State of Florida for fuel gasses, Motor-Fuelers, Inc. The company invites accredited institutions or investigators to provide additional independent verification of these results. ``The over-unity value of 2.78 should be considered as merely preliminary,'' Dr. Santilli said, ``because it can be increased via more efficient production equipment, the selection of more adequate base liquids, and other advances. In other words, once the 'mythical barrier' of the value of 1.00 for the Coefficient of Performance has been passed, its increase is essentially reduced to technical, engineering, or chemical issues.'' Emissions properties of MagneGas(TM): When used as a fuel for internal combustion engines, MagneGas exhaust contains about 120-140 parts per million (ppm) of hydrocarbon (as compared to 13,367 ppm present in gasoline exhausts); 14%-15% oxygen (as compared to 0.5% in gasoline exhausts); and 2%-3% carbon dioxide (as compared to 9%-10% in gasoline exhausts). Because MagneGas emits more oxygen than that used for its combustion, it has a positive oxygen balance making it the only known fuel whose combustion exhaust is capable of sustaining life. Applications of the MagneGas(TM) process: The combination of two patent- pending processes; the basic process that produces MagneGas, called PlasmaFlowArc(TM), and a new process for magnetically bonding liquids that normally do not mix have permitted TTL to develop a set of completely new, effective and cost competitive methods for treating any non-radioactive liquid or soluble waste. Treatable substances include, and are not limited to, automotive wastes such as antifreeze and oil, as well as sewage and farm waste. Extensive laboratory tests have established that the PlasmaFlowArc powered by a Miller Welder Summit Arc 1,000 50kw power supply can recycle 25 gallons of liquid sewage per minute, or, about 1,500 gallons per hour. At eight cents per kilowatt-hour for electricity, the cost of processing sewage is $0.0027 per gallon as opposed to the current cost of four cents per gallon to municipalities. In addition to producing MagneGas, solid precipitates can be used as fertilizers and the remaining liquid is excellent for irrigation. The magnetic bonding process also permits an efficient coal gasification method, making an environmentally clean fuel. MagneGas has also established itself as an excellent automotive fuel not only because of its dramatically improved emission characteristics, but also because it is less expensive, safer and renewable. For example, a compact car with a 100 hp engine driving at 50mph requires about 10 cubic feet of MagneGas per minute, or 600 cubic feet per hour. The same 600 cf of gas can be produced with one kilowatt of electricity (costing about 8 cents) while treating 1,500 gallons of sewage (valued at about $60.00). All gasoline or diesel engines can be easily retrofit to operate on MagneGas, and are expected to last longer because MagneGas has over 160 octane (implying smoother engine operation) and dramatically cooler exhaust. MagneGas is also safer by comparison to gasoline because, in the eventuality of a truly catastrophic accident capable of fracturing the heavy gauge storage tank, the gas dissipates instantly and, if ignited, burns without exploding. In commenting on the announcement of his discovery, Dr. Santilli added, ``Our dream of aiding the search for a solution of the world's depleting resources and alarming environmental problems caused by fossil fuels has taken a giant step forward with MagneGas. We are proud to offer an economically and environmentally sound answer to our growing energy needs and rapidly depleting resources.'' Dr. Santilli, has been invited to present TTL's MagneGas and its supporting Hadronic Mechanics at the INE-99 Symposium on New Energy, Salt Lake City, Utah, on August 27-28.

Can someone help me to work out the details? This is not a new idea. In fact, I posted a similar idea here some months ago. Concentrating the oxygen requires setting up a strong magnetic gradient. This can be done by creating a triangular trough using the faces of two magnets or a C shaped magnet, where the C is almost closed. If you close off the trough with a barrier, shown as a a line of "=" in Fig's 1 and 2 below, then you can pass air though the trough in a continuous process and then the oxygen will migrate toward the apex and the nitrogen toward the barrier. ==================== /\ /\ / \ / \ \ / S\ /N \ / \ / \ / \ / \/ /\ Close magnetic loop on this side Fig. 1 At the end of the trough include a bifarcation "--": ==================== /\ /\ / \ / \ \ / S\ /N \--------/ \ o o / \o / \ o/ \/ /\ Close magnetic loop on this side Fig. 2 so the oxygen enriched gas, shown as "o" in Fig. 2 has been separated by moving toward the point of maximum field strength at the trough apex. This could be just one stage of a magnetic separator. In the second and subsequent stages the less rich gas is fed back to the prior stage input to enrich the air input to the prior stage. Magnetic separation of oxygen is a very slow process and the flow must be laminar. It is really not suitable for the variable demands of a car engine. It might be used to improve oxygenation of a fish tank, of a room or tent for a medical patient, or to increase the heat output and reduce NOx emissions of a furnace or boiler system. A big separator might be used for enriching an engine's air input, and reducing polution, but there would be additional problems from the extra heat and engine knocking. An outdoor oxygen separator would reduce the amount of heat lost to do an air exchange for a house. There would have to be controls to avoid excess oxygen concentration because such is toxic and also a fire hazard. You can get an idea of how effective (ineffective) the separation process is by setting up two magnet faces to make a trough, as above, and place gas barriers, a piece of tape, at either end. Leave the top open. After a while light a (preferably wooden) match and dip it down to the bottom of the trough. It should burn brighter at the bottom. Blow out the match, but you need to leave a hot coal on the end, so move quickly. Stick it to the bottom of the trough and it should burst back into flame. You can blow the oxygen out of the trough and try the experiment again at differing time intervals. Note that you may not need a blower to make the process work, once the process starts, provided the exit tube for the oxygen gas has a long drop, or the N2 discharge tube has a long rise. Oxygen is heavier than air. A small vertical heat inversion would kill the circulation though. A blower in the common sense is not appropriate either. A slow air pump is more like it, maybe a star-wheel based Roots blower or gear motor type thing would work OK. It takes a big investment in magnets to build an oxygen separator, and you don't get a lot of oxygen for the money because it is a slow process. That is probably why you don't see them in practice.

On Sunday, Ibaraki prefectural police set up a headquarters to direct about 100 personnel in an investigation of the nation's worst nuclear disaster. Police also obtained a manual detailing an illegal process for the production of uranium fuel that was drawn up by Tokyo-based JCO. (Yomiuri English web site) Witnesses, including one of the gravely ill workers, have testified that they routinely mixed more than the mandated 2.4 kg. The senior worker said that he has never heard of the "criticality." In other words, they had no idea what they were doing. As of last night the three workers were still alive, which is a medical miracle. The government oversight agency shares a lot of the blame for this. It is run by none other than A. Arima, ex-Pres of Tokyo University and arch-enemy of cold fusion -- Japan's answer to John Huizenga. He says this accident was caused by the "immorality" of the corporation. He is right in some sense, but there is plenty of blame to go around. The government rubber-stamped permission to operate this facility after troubling accidents revealed a pattern of incompetence and carelessness. - Jed From vortex-l-request eskimo.com Mon Oct 4 07:21:34 1999 Received: (from smartlst localhost) by mx1.eskimo.com (8.9.1a/8.8.8) id HAA01846; Mon, 4 Oct 1999 07:20:00 -0700 Resent-Date: Mon, 4 Oct 1999 07:20:00 -0700 Message-ID: <018701bf0e7b$9a65eac0$e08e1d26 fjsparber> From: "Frederick Sparber" To: Subject: NTNU Virtual Pysics Laboratory (java applets) Date: Mon, 4 Oct 1999 08:17:13 -0700 MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: multipart/related; boundary="----=_NextPart_000_0021_01BF0E40.DD3B2580"; type="multipart/alternative" X-Priority: 3 X-MSMail-Priority: Normal X-Mailer: Microsoft Outlook Express 5.00.2615.200 X-MimeOLE: Produced By Microsoft MimeOLE V5.00.2615.200 Resent-Message-ID: <"jbmm21.0.iS.GUB-t" mx1> Resent-From: vortex-l eskimo.com Reply-To: vortex-l eskimo.com X-Mailing-List: archive/latest/30784 X-Loop: vortex-l eskimo.com Precedence: list Resent-Sender: vortex-l-request eskimo.com Status: O X-Status: This is a multi-part message in MIME format. ------=_NextPart_000_0021_01BF0E40.DD3B2580 Content-Type: multipart/alternative; boundary="----=_NextPart_001_0022_01BF0E40.DD444D40" ------=_NextPart_001_0022_01BF0E40.DD444D40 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable NTNU Virtual Pysics Laboratory (java applets) Last modified :=A1 (Average: 2 new java applets/month.)

Look down the list that comes up and select "spooky2.zip" and downlo= ad it.

With this simulation, you can play a game called "fight for the photon= ". which involves moving your detector closer ("upbeam" as in "upriver") = to the source laser than your opponent at the other detector which is movi= ng on it's own upbeam path at a predetermined rate. (fig.4) Your job is = to determine the rate of your opponent's movement that you "grab the photo= n" first. If you are successful, you will detect the photon and yo= ur opponent will not.

So I therefore do not see a problem with a setup like this to communicat= e FTL... Does anybody else?

Among other things, it has a extra "feature commentary" sound track which is a voice-over recording of comments made by mission commander Jim Lovell and his wife, along the lines of "Mystery Science 3000." They described the actual events portrayed in the movie, and the occasional technical errors and screenwriter's inventions. Technically, Apollo 13 is largely the story of energy. To be more specific, it is about the inadequacy of chemical energy systems in complex, stand-alone, critical applications like space travel. Most aerospace accidents are caused by or exacerbated by fuel explosions. The second (engineering) theme of the movie is how difficult it is to manage and conserve energy in critical situations and how batteries carry a small charge and do not work well at low temperatures. It goes without saying that CF would solve these problems. Even if it could not be used for propulsion or electricity, and it only generated low-level heat, a 1000 watt CF room heater would have made a big improvement in the safety margin. It would have kept the cabin warm, enhancing battery performance and preventing dangerous condensation on the instrument panel. Before he turned on the power, one astronaut looked at the condensation and said, "this is like driving a toaster through a car wash." There is another track with comments by the director, Ron Howard. I listened to the beginning of it. He also describes what is real and what is artistic license. - Jed From vortex-l-request eskimo.com Mon Oct 25 14:05:21 1999 Received: (from smartlst localhost) by mx1.eskimo.com (8.9.1a/8.8.8) id NAA05086; Mon, 25 Oct 1999 13:58:01 -0700 Resent-Date: Mon, 25 Oct 1999 13:58:01 -0700 Message-ID: <014b01bf1f33$a9e34420$3e441d26 fjsparber> From: "Frederick Sparber" To: Subject: Re: Microwave Electrodeless Discharge in a Jar Date: Mon, 25 Oct 1999 14:55:26 -0700 MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit X-Priority: 3 X-MSMail-Priority: Normal X-Mailer: Microsoft Outlook Express 5.00.2615.200 X-MimeOLE: Produced By Microsoft MimeOLE V5.00.2615.200 Resent-Message-ID: <"Tv4Bi2.0.OF1.PHC5u" mx1> Resent-From: vortex-l eskimo.com Reply-To: vortex-l eskimo.com X-Mailing-List: archive/latest/31261 X-Loop: vortex-l eskimo.com Precedence: list Resent-Sender: vortex-l-request eskimo.com Status: RO X-Status: FWIW, A small amount of H2O or D2O along with some K2CO3 and some Aluminum Foil in a sealed jar (a pyrex test tube would be safer) placed in a microwave oven (2.45 GHz) will start an electrodeless discharge and release H2 or D2 as the Aluminum reacts: Al + 3 H2O ---> Al(OH)3 + 3 H. and 4 Al + 3 O2 ---> 2 Al2O3 It's a cut and try deal, USE EXTREME CAUTION!

I only wondered why anyone would spend money to produce a dramatization that was an almost identical copy of one of the most dramatic and well documented events in the history of the space race. Of course the only answer was to capitalize on it. Watching the real people both in the capsule and in the ground control terminal when the crew's life was in extreme peril was quite compelling. Watching wealthy, soft actors act like they were scared was, well... you know. I have the same opinion of many of the phoney Vietnam movies. Pure garbage meant to exploit and capitalize on something that was a very real and pure horror for many of our people. The real footage of the Apollo 13 mission communicates how true heroes respond to extreme crisis. They were incredibly cool under pressure. I was very relieved to see them reach Earth safely. It didn't look good there for a very long time. I'd ask your local PBS station if they have copies of that documentary for sale. It's quite good. You'd be supporting PBS instead of Ron Howard, and you'd get to see the real thing. Knuke Michael T.

Actually, there is *nothing* about an astronaut's life or the lives of his family that is not completely, thoroughly, and rigorously quantified and analyzed by NASA scientists, and then recorded on every available media including film. This of course, is done long before the commercial news media gets a chance to microscope these poor people. That's a fact that pretty much everybody even remotely connected with NASA knows. The actual need for any fictionalized account is a fiction in and of itself. I also know that working for a film company in any capacity is a lot of hard work, but it is also one of the funnest, and exciting things you can do. I did it myself for an outfit called Harvest Productions, but it wasn't for money. It was to raise the awareness of the horrible plight of the Mexican migrant workers living in this country, and working for the large food processing corporations. There wasn't any need for actors, the real people did just fine. Movies are nothing but a blast to do, even as a volunteer. If you are young, and have the opportunity to get involved with one, I highly recommend the experience. As for the crews' endorsement of the film, I have no doubt that they loved it. Tickets to the Hollywood premiere, being wined, dined, and jacked up by Ron Howard and company, plus the chance to rub elbows with the stars must have been quite heady fun, too. Some of them may have even made a few bucks on the deal, who knows. The fact is though, my recommendation for the documentary still stands. If you haven't seen it, check with your PBS station or possibly your local library. You'll see that the Howard version is almost a word for word, scene for scene commercial ripoff, purely for the sake of a profit. It's difficult for me to imagine that anyone who claims be an historian would recommend a Hollwood account over the actual footage of the real thing, but then there are a lot of things that are difficult for me to imagine.

This was discussed by the director and by Lovell and his wife in the voice over (which is 2 hours, exactly as long as the movie). That is one of points of the movie. It is about myths, and how we make heros of ordinary people, and try to record small details as a way to understand and commemorate them. You cannot "rigorously quantify" a person's soul, or the reasons people act heroically, or the spirit of exploration. Such things can only be captured by art: by novels, movies, and drama. Granted, this movie is not immortal fiction like "The Odyssey," but I think it is pretty good. The director and actors had The Odyssey in mind, and made many allusions to it. Lovell thinks this movie may have more influence on posterity than the real archives. I think he feels that would be okay. It's >difficult for me to imagine that anyone who claims be an historian would >recommend a Hollywood account over the actual footage of the real thing, but >then there are a lot of things that are difficult for me to imagine. Not difficult at all. They serve different purposes. The actual account shows the facts, the movie or book shows what society made of the facts, and what people chose to remember, and forget. That too is important. You can learn a lot about what white people thought of the Civil War in 1930 by watching "Gone With The Wind," even though you learn practically nothing about the actual Civil War.

Magnetically confined hot plasmas for fusion research are transparent to all EM radiation, from wavelengths of a few mm and shorter. The plasmas are not very bright. HOT plasmas at low densities aren't very bright, contrary to common misbelief. I don't think that Mills' EUV lines would be obscured. We see lines from trace elements.

This is the wavelength range. The most common use of EUV spectroscopy is to identify and quantify the constituents of the plasma. The EUV range tends to be sensitive to ions formed in plasmas having temperatures of 10s to a few 100s of eV. Following lines emitted by successivly higher ionization states and identifying from where they are emitted allows one to measure how the ions in question diffuse into the plasma, a process that is related to how ions diffuse outward, too. Quantitative comparison of the intensities of two suitabily related lines yields a measurement of the plasma electron temperature. The shape of the continuum also yields a measurement of electron temperature. Doppler broadening of lines yields measurement of the ion temperature, and Doppler shift of the line yields the directed velocity of the ion. EUV lines come only from the edge of fusion-hot plasmas. We use x-ray spectroscopy or alternate methods to diagnose the plasma interior. Visible and near UV radiation is generated only at the very cold edge of the plasma, or where the plasma contacts condensed (solid or liquid) matter. ===== Michael J.

If such a unified description is true, the equivalence principle for the electric field implies that the photon has a nonzero effective electric charge-to-mass ratio and should be redshifted in an electric field and be deflected in a magnetic field. Experiments to test these predictions are proposed.

A wonderful parallel with history and science: Bees have segmented eyes and the segments are polarized. The sun gives off randomly polarized light and one aspect of this polarization is lineal plane polarization ... this also goes through clouds on overcast days and the bees can navigate. The history. some of the North Europe and Viking navigators used a mineral they called "Sunstone" which polarizes light. The sunstone can be used to see the polarization of the sun on cloudy days, just like the bees! If you put a polarizing plane filter over the bees' nest you can actually drive them around! I have used this method of encoding to do head position for virtual reality. For robotic guidance. For encoding and decoding communications and manifold position sensing. I also use it to teach the history, old and new, as was recounted, above. There is a huge range of technologies solved by nature. I have used non camera velocity sensing for vehicles and other targets, passive so it cannot be detected or jammed by using the mamalian vision methods.

That's Karl von Frisch (1886-1982). A great naturalist -- one of the best. He won the Nobel Prize (1973) for his study of the social behavior of bees. The Nobel is supposed to be for "practical" contributions, which is why there is no prize in mathematics. It is hard to imagine a practical use for bee behavior, but you never know; these days the almighty dollar finds its way into every nook and cranny of science. Perhaps someone will find a way to train bees to increase honey production or sting your enemies. I have heard that the real reason there is no Noble prize for mathematics is because Mrs. Nobel ran away with a mathematician, and Alfred held a grudge against mathematicians forever after. - Jed From vortex-l-request eskimo.com Wed Oct 27 13:26:38 1999 Received: (from smartlst localhost) by mx1.eskimo.com (8.9.1a/8.8.8) id NAA03086; Wed, 27 Oct 1999 13:24:10 -0700 Resent-Date: Wed, 27 Oct 1999 13:24:10 -0700 X-Authentication-Warning: eskimo.com: billb owned process doing -bs Date: Wed, 27 Oct 1999 13:24:07 -0700 (PDT) From: William Beaty To: vortex-l eskimo.com Subject: Re: Energy-sucking Sansbury In-Reply-To: <3813C12C.6C6E ca-ois.com> Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Resent-Message-ID: <"PBRM11.0.8m.fzr5u" mx1> Resent-From: vortex-l eskimo.com Reply-To: vortex-l eskimo.com X-Mailing-List: archive/latest/31287 X-Loop: vortex-l eskimo.com Precedence: list Resent-Sender: vortex-l-request eskimo.com Status: RO X-Status: On Sun, 24 Oct 1999, Jim Ostrowski wrote: > Vorts, > > Attached is an html document and some pictures I drew in order to > illustrate my understanding of the Delayed Choice experiment, flawed as > it may be.

The problem is simple: we don't know when the photon was originally emitted. An atomic emitter sends out a long-term spherical wave, and the presence of any photons is not guaranteed. If present, their location is unknown. All we can do is to prepare a "pumped" atom and wait for it to deliver a single photon, but this is akin to radioactive decay, and whether photon-emission has occurred or not is part of the "quantum weirdness". The atom emits the EM waves, and the waves fill all the paths in the Michaelson Interferometer. If your opponent in the game has detected a photon, you cannot know this until they send you a signal at speed of c. Until you receive that signal, you are still waiting for the photon to hit YOUR detector at any moment. Their detection of the photon does not send you FTL information. On the other hand, my gut feeling is that FTL technology might be hidden in other places in all of the quantum weirdness. After all, when one atom detects a photon, somehow all of the other atoms know this. Why? Because all of the other atoms were illuminated with the same EM waves, yet we don't seen two atoms which each receive half of a photon. Instead energy is conserved, yet the number of photons is also conserved too. That's the central problem. But what if the "photon" idea is entirely bogus to begin with? WHat if light is waves? If so, then the light really does take both paths in the beamsplitters, and it really does interfere with itself. Without photons, a single "pumped" atom really does emit a sphere-wave in all directions, and any other detector has the ability to respond to it. But then screwy things occur, since only one detector actually responds. It's only during "absorbtion" events that light seems to be made from particles. But we also leap to the conclusion that "emission" events are particle-like events as well. Have the people here read the "Energy-sucking Antenna" stuff? I'm asserting that the start-up phase of the "energy-sucking" process predicts that an inert (non-oscillating) resonant circuit can suddenly go "ping" and swallow a hunk of energy from the illuminating waves. A tiny circuit, where the circuit size is far smaller than the wavelength, can experience a runaway "chain reaction" where its present AC fields lead to rapid absorbtion of EM waves, and rapid growth of the AC fields to a maximum. If atoms are like RLC (coil/capacitor) circuits, then a photon-absorbtion event is actually nothing of the kind, and only waves are present, not particles. However, there is a problem. If Quantum Mechanics is based on wrong concepts, and if photons don't exist, then.... We are back to square one! We cannot explain the "ultraviolet catastrophe, and we don't know how Planck's Constant arises, or what it implies about interactions between waves and atoms. If atoms can take single "gulps" of energy from waves, then whenever an atom emits a spherical wave-train, why don't ten other atoms each take a "gulp" of 1/10 size? Instead only one atom responds, and the "gulps" are constant according to E=Hv. But maybe we are going at this problem totally wrong. If there is some sort of FTL communication between the atoms, then the transmitting-atom knows when one receiving-atom has finally started to feel the outgoing waves, and it also knows when one distant atom has undergone an energy-absorbtion event. Or as I said before, maybe all the receiving-atoms get together and randomly choose one of their number to pair off with the transmitting atom. Once this has occurred, the transmitter lowers its internal energy by one photon's worth, while the receiver raises its internal energy by an identical amount. Heyyyyy. This leads to an interesting experiment in FTL communications. I remember an article about single-atom traps, where a single argon ion was contained in a trap and observed with a microscope. When illuminated with a laser at the argon line-spectrum frequency, the atom was visible as a dot, since it was continually absorbing and re-radiating light. However (and I don't recall this in detail), if the atom was given a pulse of some other frequency, its electron was put into a metastable state, and the atom became transparent to the green laser light until it decayed out of that state. When the decay occurred, the atom under the microscope went "pop" and became visible again. This is a Quantum Mechanical state transition visible to the human eye! "Quantum leaping" observed directly. Suppose that a pair of trapped argon atoms is observed. Suppose that one of them is pumped into the metastable (transparent) state. Suppose that when it decays, the other atom receives that emitted photon and blinks out of sight because it is now in the metastable state itself. The big question: what is the delay between one atom losing the photon, and the other one gaining it? What if the atoms are far apart? This would be a fairly difficult experiment to pull off. If the two argon atoms were coupled by a long fiber-opitic pipe, and were contained within resonant cavities which won't allow that special frequency of photon to escape, then perhaps we'd occasionally see one atom blink on (losing the metastable state) while the other one blinks off (gaining that state.) With a long F.O. pipe, we could see if the delay is hundreds of microseconds, or whether it is zero. If it is zero, then we have directly observed a Faster-than-light phenomenon, and we have shown that whenever an atom absorbs a quantum of energy, a distant transmitter-atom loses energy instantly. This would have huge repercussions. It would sho that atoms don't just fling energy randomly out into space, but that they depend upon finding distant matter with which to exchange "photons" once the EM waves have set up the required conditions for FTL energy exchange between the two atoms. Hmmm. Maybe the same experiment can be done with 100MHz RLC resonators. If we transmit RF between a pair of hi-Q resonators, and if we suddenly throw a resistor across the "receiver", does the "transmitter" start losing energy after a lightspeed delay, or does it experience the extra loading instantly?

But we also leap to the conclusion that "emission" events are >particle-like events as well. - The emission event probably cannot emit a pure sphere-wave and probably has at least dipole directivity from a pure EM point of view. Some emissions, such as those in a laser, since they are phase coherent, may have strong EM directionality. I don't think that there is any question, based on experimental evidence, that both "emission" and "absorbtion" events are quantized. I also assume, with less evidence, that the quantizing influence is the ZPF. > >Have the people here read the "Energy-sucking Antenna" stuff? - I did. > >However, there is a problem.

I have not yet read his long paper, but this may not be the only possible model that can explain the experiment. - >Hmmm.

The proposed experiment should be easy to explain using only classical EM. When we try to use QM here, we get strange results like the emission of large numbers of "photons" in a fraction of a cycle.

Don't think so. Each atom is an absorber and emitter of photons. Only the space between atoms would be 'valid', and that's a sueless distance for the experiment.

I don't know where you read this or heard about this as being a "postulate" of QM. It isn't in any of the literature I have on the subject at least. If you have a reference for this exact statement please tell us what it is. In any mathmatical system of coordinates describing a the location of a physical object or collection of objects such as electrons, there are necessarily limitations to the VARIETY of possible locations for such objects that can be described BY and WITHIN THAT COORDINATE SYSTEM. For example, take the latitude and longitude grid coordantes for locating objects on the surface of the earth. If the object were to actually be located below the surface of the earth, or in the upper atmosphere, the less accurate a simple grid coordinate system of locating the object will be. This does not mean that if the object rises high into the atmosphere, or into outer space, that it vanishes into nothing, it simply means that the mathematical construct (the grid goordinate system) is no longer usefull in describing the location of the object. QM instead posulates that the location of particular objects is a function of psi value for the object, which is it's probability density or wavefunction. More specifically, The rule is: "The value of psi for an object at a certain place and time is proportional to the probability of finding the object at that place and at the time" (Beiser- "Physics" pg 726) It's just that simple. Objects in various kinds of oscillatory or linear motion all have psi values in their QM "coordinate system" of describing their location, but these values whether they be immense or tiny do not imply that objects can come into existence from "nothing" or vanish from existence into "nothing". Regarding your discussion of how do we know we really exist, we only percieve the existence of ourselves and other people and objects by means of thier consistency with the "coordinate system" of our "consciousness'" "reality map". The images on our retinas is actually inverted from the way our mind's reality map pervieves the image there, but this is merely an electrical neuronal trick, the same thing can be done with fiberoptic cables of machinery the function of which is interpret projected images. But the interesting fact is that consciousness itself is not at all bound by any such "principle" of "continuity" as you propose. We sleep and dream up things that obvoiusly do not exist in our waking "reality map", where do our dream images come from? Where do they go when we wake up? It is rather easy for things to "vanish" into nothing or come onto existence out of "nothing" as far as our mind's own "reality map" or "coordinate system" is able to discern. Where did Debussy's "Claire De Lune" come from? Debusey's "Concscioussness"? Where is Debusey's "conssciousness" now? Vanished into "nothing"?

Quantum Mechanics is merely an attempt to predict outcomes by means of studying probabilities. This does not fit into a context of true or false, but rather likely or unlikelyhoods. It is a perfecly valid way to try to cope with otherwise unexplained or "unknown" processes or mechanisms.

There is a post quantum theory which explains action at a distance by "back action" in time. The classic experiment were two particles are emitted and neither particle's spin is determined until one is measured is explained by the spin information being sent back in time to when the two particles were together. There's lots of discussion along this line at: http://listserv.arizona.edu/lsv/www/quantum-mind.html the Quantum Mind listserver archive.

Who would pay to have this ability? Being able to control remote vehicles on distant planets with reduced loop delay would greatly enhance unmanned planetary exploration. For a more local application, reduced loop delay could help move the fighter pilot from the airplane to the airbase, something which is already under development.

(Curve fitted mathematical constructs have no philosophy, and will give the same answers to a proponent of classical mechanics as they give to proponents of quantum mechanics. No school of physics has a better claim to them than any other.) To find material dealing with the conceptual foundations of QM, you need to read the philosophical musings of its adherents, beginning with those of Niels Bohr. A good place to start would be with *Niels Bohr: His Heritage and Legacy*, by Jan Faye. [Kluwer Academic Publishers, 1991] Here are a few quotes: "Notwithstanding the difficulties which, hence, are involved in the formulation of the quantum theory, it seems, as we shall see, that its essence may be expressed in the so-called quantum postulate, which attributes to any process an essential discontinuity, or rather individuality, completely foreign to classical theories and symbolized by Planck's quantum of action." [pg. 129] Referring to the classical view, Bohr said: "[It] presupposes the unrestricted divisibility of the course of the phenomena in space and time and the linking of all steps in an unbroken chain in terms of cause and effect." [pg. 129] Or again: "The very recognition of the limited divisibility of physical processes, symbolized by the quantum of action, has justified the old doubt as to the range of our ordinary forms of perception, when applied to atomic phenomena." [pg. 137] Or again: "The finite size of the quantum of action is to blame for the fact that the atomic system interacts with the measuring instrument in such a way as to make the extent of the interaction indeterminable." [pg. 138-139] Bottom line: quantum mechanics, at root, is a denial of the epistemological validity of the principle of continuity, as I said. --Mitchell Jones}*** > >In any mathmatical system of coordinates describing a the location of a >physical object or collection of objects such as electrons, there are >necessarily limitations to the VARIETY of possible locations for such >objects that can be described BY and WITHIN THAT COORDINATE SYSTEM. > > For example, take the latitude and longitude grid coordantes for >locating objects on the surface of the earth.

If the math is interpreted in accordance with the quantum theory, that is the implication; but if it is interpreted in accordance with the classical view, there is no such implication. That's why the math is irrelevant. As I said above, the curve fitted mathematical constructs of physics cannot be claimed by the proponents of "quantum mechanics" any more than by the proponents of classical mechanics. If you plug in the numbers and manipulate the symbols according to the rules, you will get the correct answer, regardless of whether you believe motion is continuous or discontinuous. Thus the question of whether "quantum mechanics" is valid or invalid has nothing to do with mathematics, but rather has to do with the differences between the classical and the quantum worldviews. Simply put: is motion continuous or discontinuous? As I noted in my brief essay, above, the notion that it is, or can be, discontinuous, would devastate the entire structure of human knowledge, including itself. Thus it, and any theory which implies it, including "quantum mechanics," must be false. --Mitchell Jones}*** > >Regarding your discussion of how do we know we really exist, we only >percieve the existence of ourselves and other people and objects by >means of thier consistency with the "coordinate system" of our >"consciousness'" "reality map".

Who would pay to have this ability? - Supercomputers and high speed circuitry in general often suffer from speed of light signal limitations. 1 GHz clock speeds on chip size computers will soon be common, but transactions between chips and along bus systems is very difficult due to speed of light signal limitations. Some applications might also be found in data communications. Of course, since standard physical theory says that this result is impossible, the theoretical and experimental interest in its achievement should be considerable. - John also notes: > > You can probably do your light and shutter stuff with a couple of >3 or 4 spools of optical fiber. and Rick Monteverde replies: > >Don't think so.

Needs several yards of vacuum (or maybe air). - In an optical fiber, the light is transferred without significant absorption or emission of photons, only refraction and/or total internal reflection are used to keep the photons in the fiber. These are pure EM effects and do not involve individual atoms of the material which are small compared to the wavelength. I think that your comment might apply in the case of coaxial cable, where the conduction electrons are involved in wave propagation. Of course, Sansbury's theory is not conventional EM and free space transmission could differ from transmission inside matter. - George Holz george varisys.com Varitronics Systems 1924 US Hwy 22 East Bound Brook, NJ 08805 From vortex-l-request eskimo.com Thu Oct 28 13:47:18 1999 Received: (from smartlst localhost) by mx1.eskimo.com (8.9.1a/8.8.8) id NAA08556; Thu, 28 Oct 1999 13:46:17 -0700 Resent-Date: Thu, 28 Oct 1999 13:46:17 -0700 User-Agent: Microsoft Outlook Express Macintosh Edition - 5.0 (1513) Date: Thu, 28 Oct 1999 10:45:38 -1000 Subject: Re: Energy-sucking Sansbury From: Rick Monteverde To: Message-ID: In-Reply-To: <01bf2181$564eb600$0c6cd626 george.varisys.com> Mime-version: 1.0 Content-type: text/plain; charset="US-ASCII" Content-transfer-encoding: 7bit Resent-Message-ID: <"UsGt-1.0.c52.POB6u" mx1> Resent-From: vortex-l eskimo.com Reply-To: vortex-l eskimo.com X-Mailing-List: archive/latest/31303 X-Loop: vortex-l eskimo.com Precedence: list Resent-Sender: vortex-l-request eskimo.com Status: RO X-Status: A George - > In an optical fiber, the light is transferred without significant absorption > or > emission of photons, only refraction and/or total internal reflection are > used > to keep the photons in the fiber. Well then I've had this huge misconception about light transmission through transparent materials. I thought it was where an atom of the material excited by a photon absorbtion always released the energy 180 degrees from the original direction. The refraction of light near the outer sheath of a light fiber due to its increased refractive index above that of the material nearer the core works on the wave principle of light as opposed to the particle view of light, so that does tend to introduce confusion. But you also describe reflection as if the original photon just "bounces" off a surface, again not my understanding of what happens. As far as Sansbury's experiment is concerned, I think we want to find out something about what actually happens to a "free flying photon" between emitter and absorber, so all atomic interactions between those two primary sources should be avoided. I even think air may be blurring his results.

This is what I've been using personally as an aid in visualizing what's supposed to be happening in Sansbury's experiments. I don't like it though as an attempt to describe what actually happens in nature any more than I like photons, so I haven't mentioned it lately. Sort of collected it from Bearden's time reversed wave principle, so it's heritage is tainted too . But it does help me a little bit - from the transmitter, half the energy goes from the present back into the past, and half goes forward into the future. When they are fully resolved and meet up at the "present time" in the absorber's reference frame, they sum up as if it was all from a conventional photon moving at c. But if one of those spooky time-halves is blocked during propagation like in Sansbury's setup, you would only get half the light in the end. But this isn't exactly what Sansbury gets either, so...

Well, if it makes you feel any better, I believe it was Dr. David Bohm who first proposed back action to explain events outside the light cone. I kinda like it because it explains a lot of ESP events, particularly an experiment by Dr. Radin, formerly of the Univ. of Nevada. He showed people various images on a PC monitor while measuring their biometric reactions. He found that certain subjects exhibited reactions up to one second BEFORE viewing the particular image.

Transparent materials do not have absorption bands, by definition, at frequencies where they are transparent. As far as I know, only laser like actions allow absorption and re-emission of a photon without scattering. - >The refraction of light near the outer sheath of a >light fiber due to its increased refractive index above that of the material >nearer the core works on the wave principle of light as opposed to the >particle view of light, so that does tend to introduce confusion.

Perhaps some statistical (SED like) version of "photon" > conservation would be sufficient. By "number of photons is conserved" I mean that photons would be like a "stuff", where one atom emits a photon, the photon is out there somewhere, and a distant atom later intercepts it. I strongly agree that there might be other mechanisms which could mimic this effect when averaged over many interactions, yet for each interaction it need not be true. Wouldn't this lead to short-term violations of COE as well? If E=Hv, and each photon-absorbtion WAS NOT caused by an earlier photon emission, then each event would also violate COE. In other words, an atom could be in the act of emitting waves, yet it would not lose any photon-quanta, yet a distant atom would feel the waves and gain a photon quantum. Realworld example: radioactive atom sends out gammas and causes a GM counter to go "click", yet the atom has not yet decayed. Over time, this sort of weirdness would average out and we'd not suspect that it occurs. > The emission event probably cannot emit a pure sphere-wave > and probably has at least dipole directivity from a pure EM point > of view. Yep, and a dipole emission is perfectly spherical, yet its radiation pattern is max at the "equator" and null at the "poles." The strength of the fields does not change the fact that the "ripples" take the shape of expanding spheres. Antenna diagrams depict lobes, but we must not forget that the propagating wavefronts themselves are spherical (at least in the far field they are.) > Some emissions, such as those in a laser, since they are > phase coherent, may have strong EM directionality. A side topic: I've long been thinking about just this issue. If the atoms in a laser are randomly-oriented dipole emitters, then their directionality is random, and they emit diffuse light... yet if they are all phase-locked to the stimulating wave, then as a group they produce an interference pattern which looks just like a laser beam. In this way their microscopic directionality could be unrelated to the macroscopic wave-emission. Their random orientations would average out. It would be like a phase-array antenna-farm where all of the dipoles had crazy angles and aperiodic spacing, yet for a really huge antenna array it would make no difference. Although each atom in a laser might emit light off to the sides, when vast numbers of atoms are involved, that light gets cancelled, and only the "laser beam" survives. Or said another way: for vast numbers of closely-spaced atoms, there are no side lobes, so all of the light ends up in the zero-order lobe. Hmmm. Maybe this is wrong, because it predicts that the sparse atoms in a gas laser would behave differently than a crystal laser if the doping of the crystal gave us a group of lasing atoms where the space between atoms is << a wavelength. But maybe HeNe lasers DO behave differently, since gases scatter light via Tyndall effect, and this would still apply to HeNe gas. > >If atoms can take single "gulps" of energy from waves, then whenever an > >atom emits a spherical wave-train, why don't ten other atoms each take a > >"gulp" of 1/10 size? > - > Read Hal's paper on the stability of the ground state of the hydrogen atom.

Agreed. From reading www articles, I see that the SED people seem down on the Aspect-type experiments, and they don't believe that 'spooky action at a distance' has really been demonstrated. Be that as it may, we still need to explain simple wave/particle phenomena such as double-slit diffraction under low illumination (single photon.) Maybe SED is wrong, and only fields and vacuum-nonlinearities exist, with no point-particles anywhere. > One would not expect to find quantum effects that are measurable at > 100 MHz. Not single-quantum effects, but "spooky coupling" effects instead. When an atom absorbs light, does the emitter know this instantly? If so, then perhaps when a resistor absorbs wattage, and if the coupling is across vacuum (widely spaced transformer primary/secondary), then we could measure a lack of lightspeed delay. If there is FTL for single-photon effects, maybe we can demonstrate it for large numbers too. I'm speculating about other macroscopic effects which aren't wiped out when averaged over large numbers of interactions. Here's a though: QM effects involve resonant EM cavities. Quantum transistions are associated with state-changes in resonators. Perhaps changes to macroscopic resonant cavities are felt everywhere instantaneously too, and this sort of nonlocal information transfer is behind Sansbury's observations. (I seem to recall that this sort of thing has been demonstrated with "giant atoms" composed of superconducting rings with Josephson junctions, where the resonance is disrupted everywhere at once, rather than having to propagate at lightspeed.) SF connection: at one point in the 1st Star Trek movie, "Vee-ger" has fired its huge plasma-cloud thingy, but then it changes its mind and the propagating emission goes away. More quantum-mechanical retroactive cancellation. It just has to close its Kerr-cell shutters, then the approaching wave never existed in the first place! :) > The proposed experiment should be easy to explain using > only classical EM.

Why would size necessarily matter, or number of photons matter? In other words, would Sansbury's experiment not work for some types of light source? Suppose we perform the Sansbury experiment at sub-millimeter microwave frequencies using rectennas arrays fabbed on silicon. It should still work, no? The big difference would be that the emitter "atoms" can send out multiple photons associated with their waves, while this would not be true of gas in a discharge tube. (But it WOULD be true of lasers, since the atoms are locked in coherence, and the laser light has multiple photons just like a wave coming from a radio antenna.)

If fiberoptic switching equipment actually demonstrated Sansbury's effects, and if RF pulses in coax did the same, then the question is answered, and we have some cool toys to play with.

Changes in a resonant system tend to occur together all throughout the system. However, the change is slow. It takes about Q cycles for a change to occur in a resonant system of any kind. So, if the size of the system is electromagnetic and is about 1/2 wavelength in size, the change distributes throughout the system at about c/(2Q) << c. Resonant systems are slow, not fast. ===== Michael J. Schaffer __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

Sansbury's result: when the photodiode shutter was open during the light's passage throught the shutter at the laser end, but then closed just before the light arrives, there's still light received at 1/2 intensity. Sounds to me like photon tunneling on a macro scale. Or, in the Beardenesque version, like one half of the total, (the time-foreward half? which half is which?) made it through but the other conjugate got absorbed by the photodiode shutter. Sounds like fun to me. If it works in bulk cable or glass fiber, then that's great, but I bet it won't work. And I can't find the reference for how photons travel through materials transparent to their particular wavelength. Still looking. I hope I didn't get that from Star Trek or something.

Cramer Einstein's Spooks and Bell's Theorem by John G. Cramer Alternate View Column AV-37 Keywords: nonlocality, Bell's Theorem, quantum mechanics, Einstein, Podolsky, Rosen, Copenhagen interpretation Published in the January-1990 issue of Analog Science Fiction & Fact Magazine; Albert Einstein disliked quantum mechanics, the physical theory that deals with matter and energy at the smallest possible scale. Quantum mechanics, as developed by Heisenberg, Schrödinger, Dirac, and others, had many strange features that ran head-on into Einstein's finely honed intuition and understanding of how a proper universe ought to operate. Over the years he developed a list of objections to the various peculiarities of quantum mechanics. At the top of Einstein's list of complaints was what he called "spooky actions at a distance". Einstein's "spookiness" is now called nonlocality, the mysterious ability of Nature to enforce correlations between separated but entangled parts of a quantum system that are out of speed-of-light contact, to reach faster-than-light across vast spatial distances or even across time itself to ensure that the parts of a quantum system are made to match. This column is about nonlocality, and how, through Bell's theorem, the nonlocality implicit in nature has been demonstrated in the laboratory. In 1935 Einstein, with his collaborators Boris Podolsky and Nathan Rosen, published his list of objections to quantum mechanics in what has come to be known as "the EPR paper". The EPR paper lodged three main complaints against quantum mechanics, one of which was nonlocality. EPR argued that "no real change" could take place in one system as a result of a measurement performed on a distant second system, as quantum mechanics required. Einstein and his colleagues also found it unacceptable that in quantum mechanics the measurement of one variable often precludes any knowledge of a second "complementary" variable (for example momentum and position). They further objected to the intrinsic randomness and non-predictivity of quantum mechanics. They argued that the theory must be incomplete, and that it must eventually be replaced by a superior and more complete theory which would observe light's speed limits, would allow all physical quantities to have well-defined values, and would permit accurate prediction of the outcome of any quantum event. A slow-motion uproar followed the publication of the EPR paper. The founders of quantum mechanics immediately tried to come to grips with the EPR criticisms. Niels Bohr focused this debate on the second of the EPR objections, the simultaneous "reality" of complementary variables like momentum and position. The arguments over this intellectual battleground washed back and forth for the next thirty years. During this ongoing controversy, EPR supporter David Bohm introduced the notion of a "local hidden variable" theory, a partially formulated theory that would replace quantum mechanics with a theoretical structure omitting the paradoxical features of quantum mechanics to which the EPR paper had objected. In Bohm's hidden-variable alternative to quantum mechanics, all correlation were established locally at sub-light speed. Position and momentum were permitted to have simultaneous values, values that were real, but were "hidden" and inaccessible to direct measurement. Working physicists, however, paid little attention to hidden variable theories. Bohm's approach was far less useful than orthodox quantum mechanics for calculating the behavior of physical systems. Since it was apparently impossible to resolve the EPR/hidden-variable debate by performing an experiment, physicists tended to ignore the whole controversy. They continued to use and improve quantum mechanics without agonizing over whether there were underlying problems gnawing at the roots of the theory. The EPR objections were considered problems for philosophers and mystics, not Real Physicists. In 1964 this perception changed. John S. Bell, a theoretical physicists working at the CERN laboratory in Geneva, proved an amazing theorem which demonstrated that certain experimental tests could distinguish the predictions of quantum mechanics from those of any local hidden-variable theory. Bell, following the lead of David Bohm, had based his calculations not on measurements of position and momentum, the focus of Einstein's arguments, but on measurements of the states of POLARIZATION OF PHOTONS OF LIGHT. Before discussing Bell's theorem further, we should pause to develop some background on the polarization of light. The phenomena we refer to as visible light, infrared or ultraviolet rays, radio waves, X-rays, or gamma rays are all aspects of the same basic physics. They are travelling waves produced when electric and magnetic fields vibrate together at right angles to each other as they move through space at the speed of light. The direction in which the electric field of a light wave vibrates determines the polarization of the wave. If the electric field vibrates always in the same plane, we say that this is the plane of polarization, and that the wave has linear polarization in that plane. ]If the electric field vibrates so as to trace out a "cork screw" in space, a right or left handed helix as the wave travels on its straight line path, we say that the wave has left or right circular polarization. For the present discussion we will concern ourselves only with linear polarization and will use the term polarization to indicate linear polarization. It is quite easy to measure polarization of visible light. Special optical filters, for example the lenses of Polaroid(TM) sunglasses, absorb light polarized in one direction while transmitting the light polarized in the perpendicular direction. There are also polarization-sensitive splitters (Nichol prisms) that will divide a beam of light into two beams, one, for example, with vertical polarization and the other with horizontal polarization. Using such devices, light can be divided into two polarization components. For example, light polarized at some angle to the vertical can be split into a vertical and a horizontal polarization component. Similarly, both vertically and horizontally polarized light can be split into a +45o and -45o components of equal intensity. If a beam of unpolarized light is passed first through one polarization filter and then another, the intensity of the transmitted beam varies in accordance with Malus' Law, which states that the light intensity I(a) is proportional to the square of the cosine of the angle a between the polarization direction of the first filter and that of the second filter, i.e., I(a)=IoCos2(a), where Io is the intensity then the filters are parallel. This equation tells us that when the planes of polarization of the two filters make a right angle, the crossed filters look black and no light is transmitted. When the planes of polarization make an angle of 45o, half the light is transmitted. In an atom, if an orbital electron is kicked into a higher orbit by an energetic photon or an electrical discharge, the electron returns to its lowest energy state by a process called a cascade, a series of quantum jumps to lower orbits, each jump producing a single light photon of a particular wavelength. A two-photon cascade in which the atom as a whole begins and ends with no net rotational motion is of particular interest, because the cascade produces a pair of photons which have correlated polarizations. When the photons from the cascade travel in opposite directions, the no-rotation restriction requires that if one of the photons is measured to have any definite polarization state, the other photon is required by quantum mechanics to have exactly the same polarization state. Such photon pairs are said to be in entangled quantum states. Experimental tests of Bell's theorem, sometimes called EPR experiments, use entangled photons from such a cascade. EPR experiments measure the coincident arrival of two such photons at opposite ends of the apparatus, as detected by quantum-sensitive photomultiplier tubes after each photon has passed through a polarizing filter. The photomultipliers at opposite ends of the apparatus produce electrical pulses which, when they occur at the same time, are recorded as a "coincidence" or two photon event. The rate of such coincident events when the polarization directions of the two filters have the values a1 and a2 is measured. Then one or both of the angles are changed and the rate measurement is repeated, until a complete map of rate vs. angles is developed. Bell's theorem deals with the way in which the coincidence rate of an EPR experiment falls off when the two polarizing angles a1 and a2 are not equal. Bell proved mathematically that for all local hidden-variable theories the decrease in the coincidence rate must be linear (or less) with the angular difference between the two filters. Suppose, for example, that we misalign the angles of the two polarization filters so that the angle between the polarization directions of the two filters is a=a1-a2 . We measure the coincidence rate R(a), as compared to the rate Ro when the filters are perfectly aligned. That rate drops by an amount D1=Ro-R(a). Now we double the amount of the misalignment, so that the decrease in rate is D2=Ro-R(2a). For this situation, Bell's theorem requires that D2 must be less than or equal to twice D1 (D2 <= 2D1). This prediction of Bell's theorem is one of the so-called "the Bell inequalities". It can be thought of in the following way. Consider that the coincidence rate Ro when the polarizing filters are aligned (a=0) is a "signal", to which "noise" is added when a misalignment is introduced. If the "noise" D1 introduced by moving one filter an amount q to the right is not correlated with the "noise" D1 introduced by moving the other filter by the same angle to the left, then at most, when both sources of noise are present, the noise D2 from a 2a misalignment should be twice D1. However, the two uncorrelated noise sources may occasionally cancel, permitting D2 to be less than twice D1. Therefore, this Bell inequality states that D2 must be less than or equal to twice D1. Quantum mechanics, on the other hand, predicts that the coincidence rate R(a1,a2) depends only on the relative angle a=a1-a2 between the two polarization directions, and that R(a) obeys Malus' Law. In other words, quantum mechanics predicts that R(a1,a2)=R(a)=RoCos2(a). Therefore, D1=Ro[1-Cos2(a)] and D2=Ro[1-Cos2(2a)]. When the misalignment angle a is fairly small, this means that D2 is about four times D1 and clearly much larger than twice D1 (i.e., D2 [~] 4D1 > 2D1). This is a clear violation of Bell's theorem because the coincidence rate, as predicted by quantum mechanics, falls off much too fast with increasing angle to be consistent with Bell's theorem, which predicts an approximately linear decrease. When two theories make such distinctly different predictions about outcome of the same experiment, a measurement can be performed to test them. For quantum mechanics and Bell's theorem this crucial EPR experiment has now been performed a number of times. AND WE FIND THAT QUANTUM MECHANICS ALWAYS WINS. The EPR experiments demonstrate very significant violations of the Bell Inequalities while confirming the predictions of quantum mechanics. When the first experimental results from EPR experiments became available, they were interpreted as a demonstration that hidden variable theories must be wrong. This interpretation changed when it was realized that Bell's theorem assumed a local hidden variable theory, and that nonlocal hidden variable theories can also violate Bell's theorem and agree with the experimental measurements. The assumption made by Bell that had been put to the test was the assumption of locality, not hidden variables. Locality was in conflict with experiment. Or, to put it another way, the intrinsic nonlocality of quantum mechanics has been demonstrated by the experimental tests of Bell's theorem. It has been experimentally demonstrated that NATURE ARRANGES THE CORRELATIONS BETWEEN THE POLARIZATION OF THE TWO PHOTONS BY SOME FASTER-THAN-LIGHT MECHANISM that violates Einstein's intuitions about the intrinsic locality of all natural processes. What Einstein called "spooky actions at a distance" are an important part of the way nature works at the quantum level. Einstein's faster-than-light spooks cannot be ignored ...

Somebody here's bound to like that. ;) ***{Any criticism of the "traditional Copenhagen orthodoxy" is welcome, of course, but I must note that the so called "Copenhagen interpretation" *is* quantum mechanics. Bohr and his crew spun up a rotating cloud of philosophical gibberish, attached it to mathematical constructs that had been deliberately fitted to experimentally determined data points, and expected the rest of us boobs to buy into their corrupt, anti-rational philosophy as payment for being permitted to use their mathematical constructs. And the scam worked for decades. It worked so well, in fact, that traditional mechanics became saddled with a new name, "quantum mechanics," to signify the supposed validity of their gibberish. And now, almost a century later, that corrupt expression has become so engrained that many people think of "quantum theory" as something separate from "Copenhagen orthodoxy." Thus we encounter absurd statements such as the above: "The traditional Copenhagen orthodoxy saddles quantum theory with embarrassments..."--as if we can now reject the Copenhagen interpretation and go on our merry way, doing "quantum mechanics" without it! Well, that's bull. Bohr and company were permitted to attach their "quantum" qualifier in front of "mechanics" because the world bought into their nonsense, and it is only fitting that, when the world ceases to buy into it, their corrupt qualifier should be removed. At that point, we will once again acknowledge what the classical physicists knew before Niels Bohr was a gleam in his father's eye: that all motion, including motion in the microcosm, is continuous, and that the same mechanical principles which apply in the macroscopic world apply everywhere. --Mitchell Jones}*** > >- Rick Monteverde >Honolulu, HI From vortex-l-request eskimo.com Fri Oct 29 11:05:31 1999 Received: (from smartlst localhost) by mx1.eskimo.com (8.9.1a/8.8.8) id LAA13662; Fri, 29 Oct 1999 11:03:16 -0700 Resent-Date: Fri, 29 Oct 1999 11:03:16 -0700 Message-ID: <3819EFA3.22DA4032 ix.netcom.com> Date: Fri, 29 Oct 1999 12:04:07 -0700 From: Edmund Storms Organization: Energy K System X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.5 (Macintosh; U; PPC) X-Accept-Language: en MIME-Version: 1.0 To: vortex-l eskimo.com Subject: Re: ACS CF session audio CD-ROM References: <3.0.6.32.19991029115530.0079bda0 pop.mindspring.com> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii; x-mac-type="54455854"; x-mac-creator="4D4F5353" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Resent-Message-ID: <"mwg2F.0.NL3.a5U6u" mx1> Resent-From: vortex-l eskimo.com Reply-To: vortex-l eskimo.com X-Mailing-List: archive/latest/31328 X-Loop: vortex-l eskimo.com Precedence: list Resent-Sender: vortex-l-request eskimo.com Status: RO X-Status: Jed, Please send me a copy of the talks.

For example, consider the case of an electron flying through a magnetic field. By my interpretation, the field consists of an array of flux lines, which are simply lines of rotating particles arranged in space around a magnetic object. Those particles are fully as real as the electron which deflects upon impact with them, and the force which deflects the electron is exerted during the collision itself. By your interpretation, I suppose, the flux lines have no real (i.e., no particulate) existence. Instead, the energy needed to deflect the electron from its course simply leaps into existence out of nothing, at the point in space where deflection occurs. If that is your view, then I must note that it violates the principle of continuity: "no thing may come into existence out of nothing or vanish into nothing." Thus, based on arguments which I made in another recent post, I conclude that either we can know nothing whatsoever, or else your theory is false. --Mitchell Jones}*** > >(And, yes: all that exists are >> particles and the void. :-) --MJ}*** From vortex-l-request eskimo.com Fri Oct 29 11:42:33 1999 Received: (from smartlst localhost) by mx1.eskimo.com (8.9.1a/8.8.8) id LAA25119; Fri, 29 Oct 1999 11:41:12 -0700 Resent-Date: Fri, 29 Oct 1999 11:41:12 -0700 Message-Id: <3.0.6.32.19991029144056.007adcf0 pop.mindspring.com> X-Sender: jedrothwell pop.mindspring.com X-Mailer: QUALCOMM Windows Eudora Light Version 3.0.6 (32) Date: Fri, 29 Oct 1999 14:40:56 -0400 To: vortex-l eskimo.com, vortex-l@eskimo.com From: Jed Rothwell Subject: Re: ACS CF session audio CD-ROM In-Reply-To: <3819EFA3.22DA4032 ix.netcom.com> References: <3.0.6.32.19991029115530.0079bda0 pop.mindspring.com> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Resent-Message-ID: <"c2zEm.0.O86.8fU6u" mx1> Resent-From: vortex-l eskimo.com Reply-To: vortex-l eskimo.com X-Mailing-List: archive/latest/31329 X-Loop: vortex-l eskimo.com Precedence: list Resent-Sender: vortex-l-request eskimo.com Status: O X-Status: Edmund Storms wrote: >Please send me a copy of the talks.

There is no copyright issue to worry about on the tapes. Just a trivia comment: I would hope the audio does sound better than the Sears unit. : ) Although the camcorder has stereo capability, it was used on the monaural mode with two separately located audio pickups mixed together and set on hi-fi mode with Dolby on. One mike was an omnidirectional remote unit (Samson) and the second was a very sharp directional microphone (Sennheiser) mounted on the camera to pick up sounds from the direction of the camera. The original furnished monaural microphone that came with the camcorder was found from the begining to be next to useless. Diverging on video quality, it's too bad most TVs cannot handle superior the S-VHS format which was used for recording. A lot of definition is lost in VHS.and the standard TV screen, and copying. You try to compensate for this when recording.on the fly. I am glad the product came out relatively OK. Going digital is the latest but with all the hoopla, it still is not worth it for me for the higher cost for the given specs.. The camera portion of my camcorder itself has over twice the resoltion capability than recording on its S-VHS recorder section. The challenge is to utilize this capability. Converting analog outputs and recordings to digital is attractive for permanence. Also on the tapes, editing with subtitling of tape was felt to be a waste of time. Printed Table of Contents would be faster and efficient. I tried subtitling with the ICCF-7 tapes but got bored with the process and quit. A polished product is always nice but spontaneity gets lost somewhere. Plus I am lazy anyway. -AK- From vortex-l-request eskimo.com Fri Oct 29 12:33:08 1999 Received: (from smartlst localhost) by mx1.eskimo.com (8.9.1a/8.8.8) id MAA09423; Fri, 29 Oct 1999 12:30:14 -0700 Resent-Date: Fri, 29 Oct 1999 12:30:14 -0700 Message-Id: <3.0.1.32.19991029142823.010d4a3c mail.eden.com> X-Sender: little mail.eden.com X-Mailer: Windows Eudora Pro Version 3.0.1 (32) Date: Fri, 29 Oct 1999 14:28:23 -0500 To: vortex-l eskimo.com, vortex-l@eskimo.com From: Scott Little Subject: fields...or not In-Reply-To: Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Resent-Message-ID: <"1IcWY2.0.4J2.5NV6u" mx1> Resent-From: vortex-l eskimo.com Reply-To: vortex-l eskimo.com X-Mailing-List: archive/latest/31332 X-Loop: vortex-l eskimo.com Precedence: list Resent-Sender: vortex-l-request eskimo.com Status: RO X-Status: At 01:38 PM 10/29/99 -0500, Mitchell Jones wrote: >***{In my view all forces, including those in so-called "force fields", are >exerted by particles in collision. to explain the observed lack of aberration in fields, such particles would have to travel through space from source to observer much faster than light, which would imply that we could construct a superluminal communciation device using a modulated E-field.

However, all that seems to indicate would be that the beginning of movement of electrons at the distal end of the wire is not a response to movement of electrons at the proximal end, but rather to the impact of photons that were emitted due to that movement. And such a supposition is perfectly reasonable: by moving a few electrons a fraction of a millimeter at the proximal end, we would produce a negligible change in the Coulomb force at the distal end, which after all might be a hundred miles away.

A two-sphere dipole with HV generator is taken to intergalactic space away from all other matter. An observer is located 3E8 meters away. Suddenly the dipole is charged. 1.00 seconds later the observer's E-field meter registers the arrival of a field, which you claim to be due to the superluminal propagation of particles. Why did it take so long for these particles to reach the observer?

The following is based on my interpretation and extrapolation of Hal's theory, so don't blame him for the errors. The idea is that the orbital electrons, the emitters and acceptors of "photons" are in equilibrium with the ZPF, and their stable orbits are stable due to acceptance of energy from and loss of energy to the ZPF. Thus "photons" are emitted whenever the combination of ZPF excitation and other energy input (phonons, electron collisions etc.) is sufficient to move the electron into the energy region of the another stable orbit. The ZPF provides the remaining energy to stabilize the new orbit and forces the emission of exactly the quanta of energy("photon") given by E=h*nu, which now applies to emission and absorption by matter but not to EM in general. Absorption of "photons" occurs by the inverse of this process, with the EM "photon" input providing a portion of the energy and the ZPF the remaining ammount to give exactly E=h*nu of transition energy. What I am trying to describe here is a theory of light where all quantized absorption and emission, (no longer the only kind of EM emission possible) is governed by a statistical process. This makes the explanation of the double slit experiment simple, each quantum size EM wave emission naturally travels through both slits but reacts statistically with the emulsion to create the interference pattern. - >Yep, and a dipole emission is perfectly spherical, yet its radiation >pattern is max at the "equator" and null at the "poles."

Even atoms that are farther apart than a wavelength can be excited in phase by this wave.

Perhaps the "phaselocked random-directional emissions" would cause gas lasers to scatter a bit of light out from the sides of the resonator cavity. The scattered light would be trivial when compared to the laser beam (and when compared to the spontaneous emission still going on in the HeNe tube.) If the emissions from each atom were highly directional, the scattering would not exist, but such a thing might not be obvious. I've always had a bad feeling about those "laser explanation" diagrams which depict the atoms as firing photons in parallel with the stimulating beam. I bet its more like Huygens' wavelets, where each atom emits photons spherically, but at the macro level they form a beam which is identical to the stimulating beam. Sort of like a hunk of glass that is MORE than transparent, since the process which causes transparency would be part of the process which causes amplification by stimulated emission. Also, I wonder if the density of the active atoms in crystal lasers isn't similar to gas lasers. Ruby is chromium-doped Al-oxide, right? The chromium doping might resemble a gas. Same with diode lasers, where the mobile charge-carriers are pretty sparse compared to the lattice spacing. > > Here's a though: QM effects > > involve resonant EM cavities.

Ah, but if "quantum leaps" happen instantaneously, and if an atom is a class of EM resonator, then we have an example of a slow resonator where the state changes instantly, as if a point-particle has collided with it. This gets back to a comment by a local guy: if the Q of an atom is infinite, it should take forever for it to respond to light waves. And so it does take forever, because photon-absorbtion doesn't resemble "responding to waves", it more resembles a spark-discharge or other nonlinear phenomena. > So, if the size of the system is electromagnetic and is about 1/2 > wavelength in size, the change distributes throughout the system at > about c/(2Q) << c. Resonant systems are slow, not fast. Right. They sit doing nothing for long periods, but then they suddenly absorb a photon over nearly zero time. What I really wanna do is to build a giant atom which exhibits spooky QM effects. (This is the season, for it, no?) I wonder what would happen to a superconducting loop-antenna circuit which was tuned to an AM radio station. (Tuned with an ideal, lossless-dielectric capacitor of course.) Would it never build up any resonant voltage? An infinite-Q bandpass filter would not, but I'm not so certain about a tank circuit where the coil or capacitor serves as the antenna. If the Q of an AM radio's loopstick circuit is too high, does it lop off the sidebands of the received signal? If Sansbury's stuff is real, then the same effects should arise in plenty of other places where nobody has ever looked. Paradigm-blindness rules physics, and it's not just the anomalies which are an issue. Another issue is the amazing phenomena hidden in ALMOST plain sight, in very simple experiments which nobody would ever think to perform. I'm probably jumping the gun in assuming that Sansbury's stuff is real.

(Accelerated charges radiate. That's how radio transmitters work.) Those photons move at lightspeed, and, when they reach your "E-field meter," they are going to produce electron movements within its metal parts. Result: the meter "registers the arrival of a field." As for the change in the Coulomb force at a distance of 1 light second from the source, it would be virtually instantaneous, but the magnitude of the change would be negligible from the standpoint of an observer that far away. The reason: you can't move a charge onto the dipole *from out of nothing*, so you must move it there from somewhere in the immediate vicinity--which means: the change in the Coulomb force at a point 1 light second away would be too small to be measured. Let me emphasize, however, that the only limitation preventing virtually instantaneous communication via Coulomb force changes is technological. We simply do not yet have instrumentation capable of detecting such shifts, when the signal magnitudes have been attenuated by passage over astronomical distances. If the day ever comes when we can detect the Coulomb force shifts produced by the deliberate back and forth movement of a charge on Mars, we will at that point be able to communicate with Mars without any detectible transmission delay. --Mitchell Jones}*** > >Scott Little, EarthTech Int'l, Inc. http://www.eden.com/~little >Suite 300, 4030 Braker Lane West, Austin TX 78759, USA >512-342-2185 (voice), 512-346-3017 (FAX), little eden.com (email) From vortex-l-request eskimo.com Fri Oct 29 19:36:56 1999 Received: (from smartlst localhost) by mx1.eskimo.com (8.9.1a/8.8.8) id TAA32254; Fri, 29 Oct 1999 19:35:41 -0700 Resent-Date: Fri, 29 Oct 1999 19:35:41 -0700 X-Authentication-Warning: eskimo.com: billb owned process doing -bs Date: Fri, 29 Oct 1999 19:35:40 -0700 (PDT) From: William Beaty To: vortex-l eskimo.com Subject: Re: Energy-sucking Sansbury In-Reply-To: <01bf225f$8171f570$0c6cd626 george.varisys.com> Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Resent-Message-ID: <"DJeU22.0.tt7.zbb6u" mx1> Resent-From: vortex-l eskimo.com Reply-To: vortex-l eskimo.com X-Mailing-List: archive/latest/31342 X-Loop: vortex-l eskimo.com Precedence: list Resent-Sender: vortex-l-request eskimo.com Status: RO X-Status: On Fri, 29 Oct 1999, George Holz wrote: > William Beaty wrote: > >By "number of photons is conserved" I mean that photons would be like a > >"stuff", where one atom emits a photon, the photon is out there somewhere, > >and a distant atom later intercepts it.

If the same thing occurs in atoms (if photon size is << wavelength) then the behavior of light would be no less bizarre. How can photons have frequency if they are point particles? Or, a similar idea: by sending light through a fast modulator, we find that we've created photons having upper sideband and lower sideband frequencies.

Now we're getting into a whole 'nother problem. If I understand it, metals are supposed to be like giant atoms with huge numbers of stable electron orbitals. The "bands" are composed of many individual orbitals, each with slightly different energy. When a metal circuit emits EM waves, I imagine it to be something like a laser, where the electron-transitions are locked together in phase. In both cases, each "photon" is created by a state change of an individual electron, and therefor the radiation from a metal antenna is not so different from a diode laser (but might be very different from the single-atom radiation from a gas discharge tube.) > I am > not aware of experimental evidence for quantization effects at or below > microwave > frequencies without atomic interactions. I think the "quantized Hall effect" in tiny superconductor rings is evidence for quantum state change in bulk metals. That's where a sort of electron-interferometer is built using Josephson junctions, and the devices only allow certain quantized volt/current states. They essentially are "artificial orbitals." But you're still right, since that involves microwave frequencies. I don't know if its possible to build larger versions which display quantized phenomena at lower frequencies. > >> One would not expect to find quantum effects that are measurable at > >> 100 MHz. > >Not single-quantum effects, but "spooky coupling" effects instead.

Watch out! Any new phenomenon can be dismissed by saying "if such things existed, we would have noticed them by now." But if we all are in thrall to paradigm blindness, then there might be all sorts of bizarre events occuring right under our noses, and we simply never notice them. Here's one I wrote about a couple of years ago: http://www.eskimo.com/~billb/freenrg/rules1.html Human minds are funny about anything which violates our expectations. Our minds want to maintain a coherent world, so we tend to get amnesia about things which don't fit. Amateur scientists should never stop fighting against this tendency in themselves. Avoid too much skepticism. Search for "weird" unexpected phenomena. And if ever you see some, write them down! Here's a story about my own encounter with this issue. I was using a VandeGraaff generator to power a "Franklin's Wheel" electrostatic motor. I was working in a dusty shop, and little hairs would jump onto the brass knobs of the Franklin motor. I wiped them away, but one of the hairs simply would not leave. It was a thin gray hair about 2mm long, and even though I wiped and wiped, the same hair kept jumping back to the knob. But then I looked more closely and realized that something weird was going on. That hair was a ghost. When I viewed it against a white background, it was completely invisible. When I viewed it against a normal complicated background, it looked like a tiny fiber of transparent glass. "Very weird!" I thought to myself, "I must remember to play with it tomorrow when I have more time." Ten years later I read an article in ESJ about fiber-like air flows created by the polished knobs of a Wimshurst machine. THAT WAS IT! That "ghost hair" thing! But then I realized that it had not just slipped my mind ten years earlier. Instead my brain had edited it out. I had been trying to fit that "fiber" into my prior experience, and having no luck, it was confusing me. It was an interesting phenomena, but it was also deeply unsettling. I was going to look at it more closely, but my subconscious got there first and protected my "reality" by giving me amnesia! When I read Charles Yost's article about it in ESJ, my original memories came back, but I noticed that they had a weird "feel" to them. To me they felt like I was remembering a dream, as if the "ghost hair" event had happened to somebody else. I suspect that my brain had stored the memories in a different way than normal. I had no access to them until something broke through the amnesia, and then the "feel" of the memory was different than the "feel" of a normal conscious recollection which is accessible through usual mental association. I suspect that this sort of thing is common in science. Somebody announces a great discovery, and many other people remember seeing clear evidence for the same thing. Is the discoverer a great genius, or was he/she simply the only one with the sense to write down an observed anomaly, and then to follow it up?

I'm not aware of any published experiments that measure the near field propagation speed but we (everyone in the world except Mitchell Jones) can rest assured that it does so at c and that experimental proof would be easily attainable. In fact, the EM radiation emitted by a dipole antenna begins when lobes of E and B "break off" from the oscillating near field around the antenna. The very reason they "break off" is the finite propagation speed of the near field. If the near field propagated at infinite speed, then EM radiation would never occur...you could go out as far as you like and measure an oscillating field perfectly in phase with the antenna driving signal. Nothing would ever "detach" from the near field. >Your proposed experiment >would not be good for measuring near field propagation speed. Are you referring to the long-range 1/r^3 fall-off of the dipole field? OK, let's make the dipole separation distance huge and locate ourselves along the axis nearer, say, the positive end. With sufficiently large dipole separation distance we can ignore the far end of it and the field we see will be just that of an isolated charge that can be suddenly switched on and off. Mitchell: An E-field meter is, conceptually, a test charge mounted on the arm of a sensitive force gauge. When we "turn on" the dipole, there won't be any photons emitted. There's no oscillation to launch an EM wave of any kind. The field at the surface of the sphere rises from 0 to E in a zillionth of a second and that launces a single wavefront of E-field that will propagate away from the sphere at c. At our distant observation point we will see nothing until this wavefront reaches us. As it passes us, our E-field meter will register the correct DC E-field according to our distance from the sphere and the inverse square law. It's the E-field itself that propagated outward from the sphere towards us at c.

Good point, Bill. Only the doping atoms participate in the lasing. The colorless crystal or glass carrier is just an inert ingredient.

I think you have a couple of misconceptions. The photon has a particle-like side to it, in that it has a distinct lump of energy and momentum that cannot be divided. However, a photon is not a point particle. It has a finite duration and size. These are a consequence of its wave side. A photon with a narrowly defined frequency (and thereby momentum and energy, too) has a long temporal and spatial extent. Time and frequency are inversely related. I don't know enough QM to tell you if the absorbtion by an atom and the transition inside the atom occur instantaneously or not. However, I am suspect that there is a probability governing the likelyhood of absorbtion at any particular time while the photon is passing by. A high-Q atom (slow response) is unlikely to absorb a broadband (short pulse) photon. The same arguments hold for emission. Molecular, atomic and nuclear Qs are not infinite. Some are extraordianrily high, but others are very low. >> So, if the size of the system is electromagnetic and is about 1/2 >> wavelength in size, the change distributes throughout the system at >> about c/(2Q) << c.

However, steep attenuation outside the desired passband is good. Therefore, the filter(s) that provide the selectivity are not tuned to a single frequency. ===== Michael J.

Whitehead thought that dim and fragmentary as our knowledge might be, it nevertheless touches the deepest realities, and that no truth lies beyond the happy glance of speculation, and at the base of things does not lie deep arbitrary mystery. If we approach the subjects of "existence", "Quantum Mechanics" and "reality" with this thought in mind, it would perhaps be helpful to look at a phenomena we can "all" perhaps agree is "UNREAL" or illusory, and that is: Dreams of the kind which happen when we sleep. In this regard, it interesting to look at some of the qualities that two different types of dreams have in order to relate them to what we percieve as "reality" or "existence". 1. Normal Dreams So-called "normal" dreams usually have similar qualities to a movie wherein, unless we have seen the movie before we do not know what is going to happen next. Characters appear in them who are sometimes familiar, sometimes not, they may be close loved ones or people we have not thought about in years. "Surprises" sometines occur that make it appear that the dream cannot be a result of solely our own imagination , or else we would "know" what some character was going to do or say next and not be "surprized" at some reaction they have to the circumstances in the dream. 2. Lucid dreams Although "lucid" dreams occur less frequently to most people, most people occasionally have them. Lucid dreams ALSO DO NOT appear to be products entirely of our imagination. This is inferred from the typical lucid dream experience that the subject matter and general setting or scenery in the "lucid" dream is not determined by the dreamer, but the dreamer does have a conscious measure of control over what happens in the dream that they significanly do not have in "ordinary" dreaming. A typical "choice" that a lucid dreamer will make is to "fly" over the scenery presented in the dream. This percieved ability to fly in lucid dreams is something that is not usually present during ordinary dreams. "Reality Maps" and the " `Principle' of Continuity" Mitchell Jones proposed that there is what he calls a "Principle of Continuity" which, if it were even suggested that it were not really a "principle" then the idea expressed in such a suggestion would have to be false, or else, if not, ALL of our concepts of reality and knowledge could then possibly be illusory and false as well, including the "knowledge" by someone that such a suggestion was even made in the first place! In other words, the acceptance by someone of the idea that things might be able to come into existence out of "nothing" or, conversely, vanish out of existence into "nothing" would constitute a belief system that if it were widely held, he supposes, could shatter the entire framework of so called "common knowledge" because then, one could never be sure that what one is talking about is real or not. Indeed, he postulates, one could not even be sure if his own "existence" was "real" in such a case! My response to this is that the only way we really "know" anything is by means of reference to what I call our consciousness' "Reality Map". This "reality map", for most people hopefully, has a "boundary" limitation which EXCLUDES DREAM EXPERIENCES from within it's "coordinate system". This "coordinate system" localizes components of our waking life experience and perceptions into dimensioanally consistent locations of objects in space and time as represented to our "mind's eye". However, the accuracy of each individual's "reality" map can, and very often IS CALLED INTO QUESTION by people who possess THEIR OWN version of a "reality map" (everyone has their own version of a "reality map", ie; there are as many reality maps as there are people). Thus, when we make reference to something that we supposedly "know" and tell that to someone else as if it were "true", the person we are talking to will typically check his own reality map which is contained in his "memory" to see if that which he is being told is consistent with it. If what he is being told IS NOT consistent with the other's "reality map" then for THAT OTHER PERSON, the so called "knowledge" being conveyed is thereby QUESTIONABLE! Does that mean, as Mitchell surmises, that the whole structure of reality then must come tumbling down to the point where we can't really "know" anything? I don't "know".... (ha!) Let's move on anyway. Jim Ostrowski's Crackpot theory of the "Discontinuity" of Existence Is it possible that "reality" or existence as we know it isn't continuous? For example, we experience the flow of time as a smooth, uninterrupted sequence of events and experiences that take place one after another with no "gaps" between cause and effect. A ball is thrown, it flies smoothly through the air, bounces on the ground or is caught by someone and we move about after that with no impression of this process being anything other than what it appears to be, that is, a continuum of events and cause-effect occurrences. But this might all be an illusion. Watching a movie for example we "experience" the movie in much the same way as we experience other (normal) reality. But actually the movie is just a series of still frames which are presented to our field of vision in a rapid enough sequence so that we do not "see" any discontinuity of motion. But the discontinuity is there all the same whether we know it or not. If we allow _this_ possibility, it follows then that there may be another existence or reality that occupies the same space our own reality occupies, but at different "time slices" so that this reality is not visible to us under normal circumstances. It may be that this "other existence" or reality is what our minds touch during periods of sleep, when we are "dreaming". If (our) reality isn't continuous , but is more or less like a "3-D" movie as it were, this might explain the "integration" of separate objects that sometimes appear after a tornado. There is a quote from one of the "Philadelphia Experiment" websites that is worth reviewing in this regard: "The tornado passes and we are left with straw embedded in unshattered glass, a 2 x 4 piece of pine penetrating 5/8 inch steel, a 15 inch tire circling the base of a tree whose branches exceed 15 feet, and metal pipe UNDER the earth is left twisted in the wake of such funnels. Clearly something other than physical force AS WE KNOW IT manifests itself when CONDITIONS are met. I quote from 'Reality Revealed':" This just means that in the tornado, the time slices wherein an object exists become out of step with the time slices wherein another object exists but they are both occupying THE SAME SPACE (but at "different" times , due to the phase displacement of their respective "existence time slices"). The claimed after effects of the so-called "Philadelphia Experiment" include stories of men and a machine (a Navy Destroyer) which disappeared and reappeared suddenly due to the application powerful pulsed "vortex" magnetic fields. Some of the crew, it is claimed, were "imbedded" in the hull and bulkehads of the ship. Magnetism is a phenomenon that although is well described in scientific and engineering literature, is not very well explained in terms of what the forces actually are. The repulsion effect of like pole magnets is a rather startling one for the experimenter who tries to push two magnets together when similar polarities are facing each other. It "feels" like some "thing" is there that is rather "springy" or "cushiony" that is preventing one from putting the two objects together, but when one looks there is nothing. Science is at a loss to pin down any "particle" that is in existence conducting this springy force between one magnet and another. The theory that there is "ether" of some kind which is essentially a conducting medium for light and radio waves has been rejected by "mainstream" scientists - but a few so-called "crackpots" out there still hold to such views. But it may be that the particles which cannot be seen is somehow in existence in a different "space-time slice " and the repulsion effect is due to the quality of magnets which "prefers" an orientation with other magnets to occupy a "spacetime slice" similar to it's own, and that it's physical orientation ("polarity" ) relative to another magnet is due to the "ether flow" of spacetime between the two poles. If "ether flows" are opposite in vector force and direction relative to two magnets facing each other they will repel. If the ether flows are similar in that they both are vectored toward the same point is spacetime then the force is attractive. According to my crackpot theory.... Jim Ostrowski's Lucid Dream "Experiments" I have the typical variety of dreams at night except, gratefully, "nightmares" or very frightening dreams. Among the very best (as in "enjoyable") and most memorable, particulary, are of a recurrent nature. That is not to say the same dream happens over and over, but more or less the same thing goes on where I am on a "ride" of some kind, such as can be found in an amusement park. The latest one like this, a few weeks ago, was where I boarded a passenger type jet aircraft and sat down next to a large window inside the plane. At this point in the dream, I was unaware that I was dreaming but did become so at the very end. Apparently, on whatever planet this aircraft flew around on, the pilot is obliged to manuever the plane in a combination of high speed taxiing and airborne "hops" across to various banked and curved runways that take a twisting path across a mountain range. These runways could either drop off into where there was nothing there but a deep chasm, or conversely be blocked by trees or parts of the mountain range where the pilot must increase throttle and "take off" briefly in order to fly over or around the obstacle. This sort of thing went on for several minutes, taking off from one runway at high speed, jumping over a gorge and landing on another runway on the other side, continuing on to some other obstacle, jumping over that and so on until at last I could see out the window that we were headed toward the ocean where there was a huge mountainous rock island in our direct path. This was no problem hovever, the unseen pilot just banked the wings in order to avoid the island-rock and started to barely skim the crest of a big wave, and suddenly the scenery "froze" right there! When that happened I could tell that the WHOLE SCENE was made up of small square "pixels" and that the "big wave" had not been digitally "finished" yet! At that moment I realized that the whole ride had been a dream, digitally synthesised no less like a video game!.. The scene of the "frozen" big wave slowly "fizzled" from view and I woke up. This suggested to me that there was possibly some other "entity" "designing" my dreams for me, perhaps sometimes for the purposes of entertainment, other times for instruction or warnings etc... So I determined from then on, if I could, during lucid "dreams" I would try to test this hypothesis by whatever means my conscious "lucidity" would allow. Without going into the detais of the dreams themseleves, here is what I "know" so far... 1. It is not possible for my lucid, conscious "self" during the dream to actually alter or change the "scene" I am observing or participating with. 2. I CAN chose to "concentrate" on detail. That is, when something is moving across my "field" of view I can observe some aspect or feature of the object for it's refinement of detail or it's resolution. From the best of my observation, the resolution allowed is indistinguishable from the resolution that is available in waking reality except in that one case where the scene suddenly "froze" - the "big wave" where I "saw' "pixels". 3. There are variations in luminance and overall "contrast" levels in various dreams. Some are very "vivid", some are not. I have NO control over this aspect. 4. The field of view in some dreams is limited, ie, not much peripheral "vision" and are somewhat tunnel-like. I have NO control over this aspect. That's about all I know regarding the details of what control I have over my dreams when I "know" that I am dreaming. If anyonme has any different experiences with their lucid dreams, please post them here or to vortexb. Also, if anyone has any comments on my "crackpot" "Discontinuity of Existence" theory, comments on this subject are welcome.

The first time I heard Dr. Mills interviewed I was totally convinced that he was the greatest scam artist I had ever heard. Then I heard that he had talked several utilities into investing millions of dollars. I wrote a letter to the interviewer giving him hell about promoting a scam. I mentioned the interview to Hal Puthoff who sent me the URL of Scott Little's site with the page where they attempted to reproduce BLP's claims and failed. Dr. Mills would not be reached for comment of course. Lately however Dr. Mills has been speaking in some prestigious venues, such as the American Chemical Society. I talked to a man who was offering to license the BLP technology for use as a home heater. At the time I could have had it ready for market by this winter. It seemed like a good idea, however the potential backers backed out. I would like to see a demonstration of BLP's heat generating ability as it would settle the issue. So what do the rest of your Vortexians think?

They will be continually proving the validity of my life's work in demonstrations across the country -- including New Orleans, Louisiana, where I received extensive publicity in the 1980s concerning my ongoing battle with the U.S. Patent Office to receive a Pioneering Patent for the tech- nology I have innovated. Dennis Lee and cohorts are demonstrating a technology that I have previously demonstrated to the world via national and international media: on National CBS Evening News, CNN/ABC/NBC News, LIFE Magazine, Science Magazine, on the Tonight Show, and in thousands of newspapers across the country. Noticeably absent is their recognition that I am the inventor of this technology. I ask all Americans this question: "Would you invest in someone who has demonstrated that he will not hesitate to plunder the life's work of another person? Can such a person truly be trusted?" At his demonstrations of my technology across the country, Dennis Lee has claimed and proved by dynamometer tests that my Pioneering invention is MORE THAN 400% EFFICIENT! Note: Dennis Lee has showed nothing that Dr. Hastings and more than 30 other scientific individuals have already verified in legal Affidavits concerning my technology. [See pages 22-47 of my fundamental book,THE ENERGY MACHINE OF JOSEPH NEWMAN.] Note: On page 26 of my book (originally published in 1984), Dr. Roger Hastings declares that based on tests he conducted, my Pioneering Invention could be as high as 8,000 PERCENT EFFICIENT! By using an oscilloscope, Dennis Lee and cohorts also demonstrated the large, negative backspikes produced by my PIONEERING INVENTION that generate GREATER EXTERNAL ENERGY OUTPUT ENERGY THAN EXTERNAL ENERGY INPUT. These results were verified by Dr. Roger Hastings (Principal Physicist for Unisys) and over 30 other scientists and engineers YEARS AGO! [See pages 37, 47, 48, and 65-70 of my funda- mental book.] Dennis Lee and cohorts paid for a full-page advertisement in USA Today that appeared on September 17, 1999 in which they claimed the technology as THEIR newly-discovered invention. They have repeated this claim at demonstrations around the country and in ads appearing in other news- papers. In every case, Dennis Lee DID NOT MENTION MY NAME. This is not surprising since Dennis Lee is attempting to claim this technology as original to him. However, the documentation --including a letter written by Dennis Lee-- proves that the technology is NOT original to him: "God" has arranged for this "lying, thieving, scum individual" to have admitted in writing that the PIONEERING ENERGY INVENTION was given to Joseph Newman by "God"! See his own letter dated April 15, 1986 which admits this and where Dennis Lee praises me greatly as a "New (Michael) Faraday": __________________________________________________________ C*O*N*S*E*R*V*E CORP.

Soule, Jr.* New Orleans, Louisiana Dan: I can't begin to tell you how wonderful it was to discover you are a dedicated brother in the Lord.I know God has you in there looking out for His interests. I want to help. I predicted a few months ago that we would soon sell a product that could generate electricity for homeowners and decentralize the electric companies. I knew God had the technology somewhere and now I know where. It looks like we've got a new Mr. Faraday in Joseph Newman. It must have been very exciting for him to be the first to discover the essence of one of God's operatives, especially something as important as the basis of all matter and an explanation of magnetic force fields. God has truly blessed him. It's like crawling into God's brain to see something so impor- tant about God's world. Joe has already received some pretty special compensation from God, and I know he feels like he's got a responsi- bility to use the revelation to bless mankind. I know how frustrating it is to try to help people while it appears as though they are resisting you. Look at Jesus in Jeru- salem. They can't see. But as God sends helpers to you, as a team we can get the job done in spite of, or maybe even because of the resistance. I'd be honored to serve on that team and use the assets God gave me to help perform the work at hand. I see my God in it and I'm excited! Thank you for the opportunity to serve my God. I'd also like to bless you, Dan. Thank you for your faith- fulness in God to help our brother get started. I'm so happy this is God's work, obviously started by an act of faith. If God is for us, who can stand against us? Thanks again brother. Yours in Christ, [Signed] Dennis M. Lee 20121 - 48th Ave. W. * P.O.

It's agreed upon that the total price for a license agree- ment is $1,000,000 plus royalties as agreed between the parties. Agreed upon and presented to Joe Newman by associate Dan Benvenuti. It is clearly understood that any and all understandings for agreement shall be approved solely by Joe Newman and the undersigned buyer. Signed: Dennis M. Lee CONSERVE CORP. April 13, 1986 Witnessed: Dan Benvenuti April 13, 1986 __________________________________________________________ In the above letter signed by Dennis Lee and dated April 13, 1986, Mr. Lee offers me $1,000,000 plus royalties for the non-exclusive use of my PIONEERING ENERGY INVENTION. FACT: I rejected Dennis Lee's offer after I checked with the Better Business Bureau of Greater Seattle, Washington and also with the Office of the Attorney General of the State of Washington. Both offices sent me very unfavorable reports on Dennis Lee and his company, CONSERVE CORP., which showed that Dennis Lee was hustling people. The following is an example of the information contained in a Report by the Attorney General of Washington State in which (on page 9 of the Report) Dennis Lee had claimed: "(a) Statements have been made that Defendant Lee is an 'expert in the field of energy conservation (especially solar refrigeration)' and that he is a former medical student and social psychologist. In fact, Defendant Lee has no special training or background in solar refrigera- tion or energy conservation. In fact, he has never attended medical school nor has he received a degree in or worked in the field of social psychology." The above statement is from a 20 page Settlement signed by Dennis Lee on 31 October 1985. Interestingly, this day of 28 October 1999, "God" shows that Dennis Lee is still a THIEF and a LIAR! For those who believe in lying, thievery, and the stealing of creative ideas and inventions, then such people should support Dennis Lee and his cohorts. If, however, you believe in the "Word of God" and that every human being should be entitled to the recognition and rewards for his/her creative achievements, then damn Dennis Lee and his cohorts for theft, lies, and scamming good and creative people. Dennis Lee and cohorts will be appearing in different cities across the United States over the next weeks. I encourage honest people to go to one of these presenta- tions and observe the DOCUMENTATION OF MY PIONEERING ENERGY INVENTION provided by a THIEF, a LIAR, and a CONVICTED CRIMINAL: Dennis Lee. Fact: Even the U. S. Patent Office in Federal Court admitted that if my invention worked that it was a "PIONEERING INVENTION" and the Supreme Court has ruled on several occasions: "From the WIDEST TO THE NARROWEST interpretation, the CLAIMS of a PIONEERING INVENTION WILL BE SUPPORTED IN THE LANGUAGE OF THE APPLICANT." That Applicant is myself. And Dennis Lee so admits this in his two statements that he wrote in the 1980s. Dennis Lee and cohorts are in the process of demonstrating in 45 major U.S. cities the proof of my PIONEERING INVENTION. Dennis Lee has also violated copyright laws to which Pioneering Invention status also applies. The following is my warning to Dennis Lee and cohorts: you will be sued by me and, sadly, so will those who become distributors for him of my PIONEERING ENERGY INVENTION. Remember, I fight for Creative Individuals yet unborn who represent the Jewels of our Civilization. My fight is verified by the history of my struggle and is fully documented in my fundamental book. If you believe in Honesty, Honor, Truth, Creativity, the Advancement of the Human Race, and in God, then I ask for all Good People to support my efforts to bring forth the mass production of my life's work for humanity and to damn my enemies who are also your enemies.

Making those kinds of claims falsely would, I think, still land a person in jail, even in this day and age. I don't think Mills would risk that kind of thing, but who knows.

Me too. I have repeatedly offered to travel to Mills' facility with our versatile water-flow calorimeter system and perform a confimratory calorimetric measurement on one of his excess heat producing devices. He only reponded once , advising me to pursue spectroscopic investigations to confirm his discoveries rather than calorimetry (since calorimetry is mistrusted by many scientists). I responded immediately explaining that, in our case, calorimetry was actually the method of choice since (1) we are satisfied with our own calorimeter and (2) our primary goal is an energy source so we want to measure energy...not spectra. He never responded again. The offer still stands. I will travel to anyplace Mills specifies with our calorimeter and perform a rigorous power balance measurement on his device, free of charge or obligation to him. All he has to do is provide the device and operate it for me.

Joe, if your work was for humanity you'd have stopped all this wrangling and haranguing long ago, gotten your ass to work on a machine which functioned as an overunity generator in this world and demonstrated something useful. As it is, it seems to me that you're looking for self-aggrandisement and ego gratification in order to prove to yourself that you're a worthwhile human being despite everything you've been told from your childhood until the present. > > Dennis Lee and cohorts are demonstrating a technology that > I have previously demonstrated to the world via national > and international media: on National CBS Evening News, > CNN/ABC/NBC News, LIFE Magazine, Science Magazine, on the > Tonight Show, and in thousands of newspapers across the > country.

You need to demonstrate greater _power_ output from your machine than power input to your machine.

This entity can give off EUV-OU Energy when formed, and can allow CF and LENR and D-D---> He4 + antineutrino Reactions sans Neutrons and Gammas, since the antineutrino will carry off a large portion of the ~24 Mev of this reaction. With the Deuteron, if a fractional orbit Quasi-neutron forms on the Proton portion the existing Neutron Portion can split off, as in low temperature "Neutron Stripping" (Reportedly at less than 0.5 ev)with the 2.23 Mev Binding Energy Conserved by the formation of the Quasi-Neutron.

I think that anyone can write a book, but it takes energy production measured by increased heat in matter to prove anything to me.

Depending on whether it actually is a Neutrino or AntiNeutrino that need only be formed from a photon that has a wavelength "resonant" around the the Infrared Spectra of a Proton or Deuteron. If Circular Polarization of a Photon occurs, then in an Electron-Proton or Electron-Deuteron interaction, energy from the quarks in the nucleus can be shared with the Circular Photon-Electron to give it energy and literally "shrink" it to a radius R = kq^2/(shared energy) thus forming a Quasi-Neutron. QM "tunneling" based on this Quasi-Neutron entity would make a bit of sense and the mechanism of large energy carry-off by a nearly zero rest mass, chargeless photon is easy to comprehend. Even if his Hydrino Theory is wrong, Mills could be seeing the Quasi-Neutron results. The CF-OU-LENR effects should be there too.

Calorimetry is only one tool of the trade, and it can be argued pretty convincingly that it is actually one of the weakest indicators of any new physics/chemistry. Mills made it quite clear very early in the presentation of his technology that the importance of his technology lay in new materials production, no doubt in response to a poor showing in his own calorimetry test results. An obsession with calorimetry has characterized the cold fusion field, and since it is so easy to attack a measurement that shows a COP of say 1.25, which is a quite common finding, it has been a real distraction that has always left the industrial people with doubts about the veracity of the claims. It could well be that Mills is making the best practical decision to stick with the evidence of novel material production, and not letting himself get drug into another neverending excess heat debate with the legions of kneejerkers. In this way, he positions himself as not being a direct threat to the energy industries, and offers his wares instead to the people in the battery industry, etc.. who are actually looking for improvements to their existing technologies. It's not a wise thing for a young company to go head to head with Oil, Nuclear, and Coal, especially if they are still in the process of getting their technology tested for acceptance, and they can't actually deliver The Mega Heater overnight. Mills is still experimenting, and patenting incremental improvements in his techniques with the money that he has available to him. This is the way to lock up profits and future licensing agreements. It's no wonder he is being obtuse in his explanations. He doesn't want anyone outside of BLP to really understand the technology well until after he owns it, or as much of it as possible.

No, I cannot. In fact, the patent states that the method of driving off the water of hydration (for subsequent re-hydration with heavy water) is to heat the salts to 250C! Obviously, if the target is heated to 1000C, the heavy water will leave rapidly. I would expect this to spoil the vacuum and consequently shut down the ion beam. Another thing I cannot reconcile is the report of 10^5 neutrons per second and the report that the sample heats rapidly to 1000C and sometimes even melts the steel holder. The former indicates a total fusion output power of about 0.1 microwatts (assuming 7.3 MeV energy release per emitted neutron). The latter suggests an output power of ~1000 watts...10,000,000,000 times more!

As I explained earlier, uranium only needs to be enriched enough so that it will burn in a carefully designed reactor where a moderator is present to slow the neutrons, if the goal is to produce electricity. Without a moderator and a reaction environment that has been carefully engineered to concentrate the neutrons, the reaction simply will not go--assuming that reactor grade uranium is used. This means you can't simply pour reactor grade uranium hexafluoride into a stainless steel bucket, pour in some nitric acid, and achieve criticality. If anyone has any substantive arguments against this conclusion, I would like to hear them. In the absence of such reasoning, it would seem that what we are dealing with here is *the will to believe*--which means: those who believe the Japanese government's press releases are operating on the basis of the premise that governments will not lie to us, even when they have a powerful motive to do so, such as would be the case in Japan if the government does, in fact, have a clandestine nuclear weapons development program in place. For in that event, given the degree of nuclear phobia present in the Japanese electorate, a massive reaction against incumbents of both major parties would be virtually guaranteed, if the truth were to out. Thus, from the standpoint of spin control, a cover story of the sort which we are seeing would be indicated, and would be justified under the rubric of "national security." Based on what I know at present, the cover-up theory seems far more plausible than simply taking these absurd stories of technological buffoonery at face value. --Mitchell Jones}*** From vortex-l-request eskimo.com Mon Oct 4 10:59:35 1999 Received: (from smartlst localhost) by mx1.eskimo.com (8.9.1a/8.8.8) id KAA28297; Mon, 4 Oct 1999 10:57:56 -0700 Resent-Date: Mon, 4 Oct 1999 10:57:56 -0700 Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" X-Sender: mjones pop.jump.net Message-Id: Date: Mon, 4 Oct 1999 12:55:27 -0500 To: vortex-l eskimo.com From: Mitchell Jones Subject: Re: The Schauberger Flying Saucer Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit X-MIME-Autoconverted: from quoted-printable to 8bit by mx1.eskimo.com id KAA28260 Resent-Message-ID: <"x3Lhq1.0.2w6.ZgE-t" mx1> Resent-From: vortex-l eskimo.com Reply-To: vortex-l eskimo.com X-Mailing-List: archive/latest/30789 X-Loop: vortex-l eskimo.com Precedence: list Resent-Sender: vortex-l-request eskimo.com Status: O X-Status: >Dans un courrier daté du 03/10/99 21:20:24é), mjones jump.net a écrit : > >> ***{One problem I see with attempting to use this idea to provide lift for >> an aircraft is the tendency of the motor to rotate in the opposite >> direction as the Schauberger disk.

In the Schauberger device, a motor is required to rotate the Schauberger disk, just as a motor is required to rotate the blades of a helicopter. By Newton's third law (the law of reaction), it is necessary that the disk exert an equal and opposite force on the motor as compared to the force which the motor exerts on the disk. Thus if the disk is set into clockwise rotation by the motor, then the reactive force will set the motor into counterclockwise motion. Result: we have the same problem as that is faced by helicopter manufacturers: the passenger compartment of the vehicle tends to rotate, and a beam with a smaller propellor at the end must be attached, to compensate. This analysis seems crystal clear to me, and it also seems clear that it applies to the Schauberger device. On the other hand, even if we assume that the vortex bottle apparatus will not rotate when suspended from a thread, I fail to see the logic by which this phenomenon connects to the Schauberger device, and thus it seems to me at this point to be irrelevant to the question. By the way, I did attempt the vortex bottle experiment, using 1 liter bottles (which were all I had handy). With a 9 mm diameter hole, there was no water flow at all, and with a 15 mm hole, the flow was intermittent, with spurts of water in the down direction alternating with rising bubbles. Could it be that you punched holes in the plastic bottles to assist the airflow? (With an airtight seal, air must flow upward in order for water to flow downward.) --Mitchell Jones}*** From vortex-l-request eskimo.com Mon Oct 4 11:39:26 1999 Received: (from smartlst localhost) by mx1.eskimo.com (8.9.1a/8.8.8) id LAA09836; Mon, 4 Oct 1999 11:37:03 -0700 Resent-Date: Mon, 4 Oct 1999 11:37:03 -0700 Message-Id: <3.0.6.32.19991004141416.007acac0 pop.mindspring.com> X-Sender: jedrothwell pop.mindspring.com X-Mailer: QUALCOMM Windows Eudora Light Version 3.0.6 (32) Date: Mon, 04 Oct 1999 14:14:16 -0400 To: vortex-L eskimo.com From: Jed Rothwell Subject: Re: Ohmori & Mizuno in IE #27 Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Resent-Message-ID: <"0x3nm1.0.XP2.EFF-t" mx1> Resent-From: vortex-l eskimo.com Reply-To: vortex-l eskimo.com X-Mailing-List: archive/latest/30790 X-Loop: vortex-l eskimo.com Precedence: list Resent-Sender: vortex-l-request eskimo.com Status: O X-Status: Tom Stolper writes: I assume that the fluent translation was done by Jed Rothwell.

Unthinkable practices such as pouring nuclear waste down public sewer drains, and into open pits are quite common in this country's nuclear industry, and are tolerated by the DOE inspectors. Eye witness and whistleblower reports are everywhere. I've talked to some of these people myself. These kinds of things are daily practices at some places. As for criticality, read the lastest on the Hanford tanks. At least the Japanese were only dealing with a few kilos in an open bucket. Hanford has tanks that are pressurized, and contain millions of gallons of this stuff. It's right on the San Andreas fault line, too. Those are in addition to the tanks that are leaking into the ground and the stuff gets into the Columbia River. Last year, there was a big push to sell the entire plant and processing facility to a guy who had been convicted of real estate fraud. He was a big-time contributor to the Republican Party, and held a major planning session for the Republican National Committee at his ranch on Widby Island, just before I left. One would have expected the opposing party, who is in control of the state at the moment to have at least raised some objections, but to the surprise of everyone, the Democrats Governor Locke, and Senator Murphy were almost delirious in their endorsement of the idea, despite the obvious environmental dangers and moral reasons for opposing the plan. They obviously had been paid off as well. The lastest fiasco, however, and perhaps the most scary is the proposed plan to ship nuclear waste to Russia for "storage and reprocessing". The proposed contract is reported to be worth around $150 billion US, and would be "a real shot in the arm for the failing Russian economy", as one of the proponents put it. The plan was presented by a Russian hawk general, and HUGE (hundreds of millions) sums have already been disbursed in bribes and PR monies to make the deal legally possible in Russia. When these kinds of monetary figures are thrown around, people loose all sense of reason, and even some of the environmental groups are falling prey to the temptation of minimizing the dangers in their reporting of them to people in exchange for funding from the major corporations that will profit from these ventures. We need to impress upon the general populace that they have to actively participate in the decision making process, and demand that this industry be completely shut down around the world. We have to demand that our legislators consider the taking of bribes from these corporations as nothing less than a crime against humanity, and that political leaders should be tried, convicted, and jailed if they take this money. That should go for the corporate officers and major shareholders of the corporations that offer the money as well. Their assets should be seized and distributed to their victims or put back into the public coffers. If the company is not shut down entirely because only a division was involved, then the division should be shut down, and the parent company should be disallowed from bidding on government contracts. This Japanese accident was minor in comparison to many of the others that have happened, and the practices of this company are probably not nearly as bad as they are here in the states. You have to remember that in global comparisons, our educational system ranks 5th in the world - not 1st, as everyone would like to believe. In fact, as a nation training engineers and scientists, Japan has one of the highest, if not THE highest pecentage of students being trained as engineers and scientists. The majority of students in this country are business majors - professional liars and thieves, simply because that is where the money is. By the time they graduate, they all have big goals, but no souls. All of their relationships with other people become "investments in time". In other countries however, like Russia, China, India, Pakistan, most of the Middle East, or the Koreas, you might as well forget about any kind of regulation being put into practice, or trained personnel performing their duties in compliance with any kind of safety standards. Many of the people in positions of power today in the 3rd world capitalist countries had their degrees bought for them in very exclusive Swiss schools by their fathers who were tribal chieftans or successful merchants. I used to party with some of these guys in Europe, so I know. None of them actually went to school. They were total barbarians with expensive cars and gold cards. If we don't criminalize and remove this nuclear industry from the entire planet immediately, and start cleaning up the enormous mess that is already present, none of us have a future. Not even the most highly trained and most civilized people on this Earth have demonstrated the ability to safely handle this form of energy. That's a fact. Knuke Michael T.

Uh huh. Well, I took a quick look at these groups and I find statements and "reports" originating in places like the Drudge Report, which is not what I would call a trusted authority on Far East foreign policy or history. If anyone can cite an actual, credible, original-source statement from the Chinese Gov't about their nuclear strategy, I'd like to hear about it. I am aware of the fact that 40 years ago Mao said fact that China could afford to lose millions of people in a nuclear war. He also called the atom bomb a "paper tiger," which I think is not far from the truth. - Jed From vortex-l-request eskimo.com Mon Oct 4 15:44:15 1999 Received: (from smartlst localhost) by mx1.eskimo.com (8.9.1a/8.8.8) id PAA10368; Mon, 4 Oct 1999 15:42:30 -0700 Resent-Date: Mon, 4 Oct 1999 15:42:30 -0700 Message-ID: <003c01bf0eb9$bc02c520$0101a8c0 john> From: "John Logajan" To: References: <3.0.6.32.19991004170112.007aed10 pop.mindspring.com><19991004203106218.AAA285@mail.lcia.com@lizard> <3.0.6.32.19991004173536.007b16b0@pop.mindspring.com> Subject: Re: Japan Nuclear Accident Date: Mon, 4 Oct 1999 17:42:25 -0500 MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit X-Priority: 3 X-MSMail-Priority: Normal X-Mailer: Microsoft Outlook Express 5.00.2615.200 X-MimeOLE: Produced By Microsoft MimeOLE V5.00.2615.200 Resent-Message-ID: <"Tga0a3.0.rX2.MrI-t" mx1> Resent-From: vortex-l eskimo.com Reply-To: vortex-l eskimo.com X-Mailing-List: archive/latest/30802 X-Loop: vortex-l eskimo.com Precedence: list Resent-Sender: vortex-l-request eskimo.com Status: O X-Status: Jed wrote: > Uh huh.

Actually, Matt Drudge's track record for getting the story right has been as good or better than most major media outlets. This is in part because his sources are usually major media reporters who's editors are sitting on a story for one reason or another. I didn't read the particular story closely either, but it looks like Drudge was simply quoting Talbot out of a Time Magazine article. I know liberals love to hate Drudge, but Drudge just happens to be right (or at least reportorially accurate) almost all the time. (Reportorially accurate is a term I just made up, but I mean that he accurately reports what people have said -- which is different than whether what they said is true. If you want to hold reporters to a higher standard then almost nothing Clinton ever said could get published anywhere by anyone.) -- - John Logajan -- jlogajan yahoo.com -- 651-633-8918 - - 4234 Hamline Ave; Arden Hills, Minnesota (MN) 55112 USA - _________________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

One of my best friends is a foreign policy analyst, and does that sort of thing. Another old friend was an analyst and policy writer for the Tri-Lateral Commission, and I think that I can safely say from my discussions with them that the current Chinese government is not Pro American. Another one of my best friends is a close, personal friend of the President of Taiwan, an outspoken critic of the Communist Chinese government. I know a number of other people, some of them former Chinese nationals, who are either presently members of the State Department, doing some kind of business, volunteer medical work, or have lived in China for as long as 25 years as missionaries, and I know from my discussions with them that they would all agree with what I have written. You asked in another post for some references to the nuclear industry watchdog sites. There are hundreds of them actually, and they are all linked up so you could spend a great deal of time reading just this stuff. I posted one yesterday: http://www.nuclearactive.org/ that had some very good information in it. Here are a few more that I recommend. http://www.citizen.org/ This is The Public Citizen Site, founded by Ralph Nader. Yes, the scourge of the business community, and well... one of my few personal heroes. They have, among many other sections, a good section on Nuclear Safety and Nuclear Waste. http://www.ieer.org/ This is the Institute for Energy and Environmental Research in Maryland. http://eatthestate.org/ Eat The State is a volunteer Seattle effort that I now get sent to me through the e-mail. I used to listen to them on KCMU and read their rag in the cafes when I lived there. This one is my personal favorite because I have met some of the contributors/characters, and I really like their attitudes, political positions, tattoos, piercings, and writing styles. Geov Parrish and Maria Thomchick write with a passion for the truth that I hadn't seen in decades. I loved being in that town. Much of the news is locally oriented with a lot of stuff on Hanford, but if you read this publication, they also list other organizations that are more nationally or internationally focused, such as www.corpwatch.org and the like. If you actually do the followup reading, you can find out which US companies own slave labor camps, forced prostitution rings, and sweat shops for child laborers. You'll never buy another Mickey Mouse T-shirt again. You can learn which US corporations are sponsoring the training of the various 3rd World death squads in Fort Bragg, and why. Who is torturing, killing, and imprisoning environmentalists, and who are the largest and most blatant polluters Which US major corporations have been tried and convicted of major crimes this year, which corporations own what politicians, government regulatory agencies, and so on. Seattle, BTW, is hosting a big World Trade Organization Conference in November. There should be some major demonstrations, and Eat The State is reporting on those efforts. Apparently, FBI agents have been paying visits to the homes of Seattle activists who have expressed anti-WTO sentiments recently. There is an article about it in the current ETS. http://www.prs.net/midi.html This is the Classical Music MIDI Archive, an URL that I recently discovered after I finally got the sound card that I bought a year ago, hooked up and functional. This site has nothing to do with politics, religion, science or business, but if you do actually plow through some of the material that is listed above, you will need something to soothe the anger and grief, and hopefully, to get some of images of the suffering out of your mind.

Because of the hazards associated with working with highly enriched uranium and plutonium, and the potential political fallout from such hazards if and when they manifest themselves, the supposition that Japan would use breeder reactors to generate power is absurd. Standard, non- breeder nuclear reactors, which use *totally safe* reactor grade uranium, and which are--by far--the safest form of power generation, would be the obvious way for Japan to go, were they not pursuing a clandestine nuclear weapons development program. Thus if, as you say, this accident occurred because highly enriched uranium was being produced to feed a breeder reactor, then we have what amounts to smoking gun proof that the Japanese are developing nuclear weapons--as I pointed out at the beginning. --Mitchell Jones}*** > >- Jed From vortex-l-request eskimo.com Tue Oct 5 07:31:27 1999 Received: (from smartlst localhost) by mx1.eskimo.com (8.9.1a/8.8.8) id HAA30113; Tue, 5 Oct 1999 07:29:20 -0700 Resent-Date: Tue, 5 Oct 1999 07:29:20 -0700 X-Sender: knuke mail.lcia.com X-Mailer: Windows Eudora Version 1.4.4 Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" To: vortex-l eskimo.com From: knuke LCIA.COM (Michael T Huffman) Subject: This just came in Date: Tue, 5 Oct 1999 10:37:02 -0400 Message-ID: <19991005143702984.AAA244 mail.lcia.com@lizard> Resent-Message-ID: <"JYS083.0.NM7.0jW-t" mx1> Resent-From: vortex-l eskimo.com Reply-To: vortex-l eskimo.com X-Mailing-List: archive/latest/30808 X-Loop: vortex-l eskimo.com Precedence: list Resent-Sender: vortex-l-request eskimo.com Status: O X-Status: -- Radiation leak reported at South Korea's Wolsung nuclear power reactor No. 3 in northern Kyongsang Province; 22 workers exposed -- Yonhap news agency.

That's debatable. It is only true when you ignore the third world. Also, fission energy costs far more than conventional energy, and it will cost even more when decommissioning costs are accounted for. It is morally wrong to take two or three times more money from people for electricity than you need. If you leave the money in their hands, they might spend it on something to improve their lives, perhaps mitigating the effects of pollution. Of course, pollution is horrible and I am no friend of coal mining or combustion power. But the issue is complicated. I do not think there are simple Yes or No answers with today's technology.

In fact, you are the first person I have ever heard of who thinks this. The rightists in Japan say they fear Russia and North Korea. I have >also repeatedly pointed out that the Japanese have already had the >experience of being forced to submit to an enemy by means of nuclear >weapons, and, thus, that the need for a nuclear deterrent must be obvious >to their military strategists. They submitted to conventional arms and the submarine blockade. The atom bombs caused only a small fraction of the casualties. Furthermore, the bombs did not and would not have ended the war if there had not already been strong political pressure within Japan to end it. Even after the second bomb was dropped, the military leaders demanded that the war continue. The civilian government ministers and the Emperor, who had been trying to end the war for months, used the bomb as a lever to outvote the army and navy in the Imperial Council. The militarists attempted a coup d'etat but it was put down by loyalist troops. Because they have actual experience with nuclear weapons, the Japanese voters know better than anyone that a nuclear war would be futile. Neither side could win. It would be suicide. There is no chance the public will allow nuclear weapons or serious rearmament. As long as Japan remains a democracy no nation has anything to fear from it. Not China, and not us. The likelihood that Japan will re-arm and revert to militarism is roughly as great as the likelihood that Georgia and Virginia will send armies to invade Pennsylvania and refight the battle of Gettysburg. Naturally, there are still a few fire-eating, xenophobic fascists in Japan, just as there are unreformed Confederates here in Georgia, but fortunately they are a tiny minority.

Most books about business are deadly boring, but this one kept my attention. It is by Clayton Christensen, "The Innovators Dilemma: when new technologies cause great firms to fail," (Harvard Business School Press, 1997). It was so good I went back to get a second copy for Gene, but now I cannot find the first copy. I think I may have accidentally returned it to the library inside a stack of other books. It covers some of the themes I have discussed in articles in I.E., like the S-curve, and the four stages of market need. The S-curve describes the pace of progress in most technologies. Things are difficult at first and progress is slow, then there is a burst of progress (the upward turn in the S) and finally progress slows down as the technology matures. The four phases of market need (or customer motivation) are described in Chapter 8. They are: Phase 1: Competition based upon capacity, or capability. Attracts pioneers. Phase 2: Competition based upon size. phase 3 Competition based upon reliability. phase 4: Competition based upon price. The product becomes a commodity. Another way to express this is to say that products attract people in successive waves first by performance, then reliability, convenience, and finally price. The main theme of this book is the difference between what Christensen calls "sustaining" and "disruptive" technologies. A sustaining technology is one that improves the state-of-the-art and makes products more appealing to the existing customer base. Sustaining technology generally costs more and it is more sophisticated. Disruptive technology is an innovation which is cheaper on a per unit basis, yet more expensive and less attractive to established customers. Disruptive technology is simpler. It may be based on a new breakthrough, or it may be based on older technology which has been repackaged or revived. To succeed in selling disruptive technology you must find new customers. The best place to look is in an emerging market. To give an example we are all familiar with, in 1981 Seagate introduced the 5.25 in. Winchester hard disk drive. Compare it to the existing 8-inch drives: eight inch drives 5.25 inch drives (minicomputer market) (desktop computer mkt) Capacity (MB) 60 10 Physical volume (cu. in.) 566 150 Weight (lbs.) 21 6 Access time (milliseconds) 30 160 Cost per megabyte $50 $200 Unit cost $3000 $2000 (Table from Christensen, page 15) Minicomputer users wanted the most cost-effective disk drives -- the most megabytes per dollar and the fastest performance. They did not care how much these drives weighed or how much space they took up. People in the emerging desktop computer market, on the other hand, wanted a low unit-cost, and a compact, light-weight drive. They were willing to sacrifice cost-effectiveness for these other benefits. If Seagate had gone after the existing minicomputer market it would have swiftly gone out of business. Instead, it pursued customers who wanted this variation of the technology. Predictably, the 5.25 inch drives improved more rapidly than the eight inch drives, because they were based on simpler technology. By 1987 the capacity of the 5.25 inch drives met the demand in the minicomputer market, even though eight inch drives were still faster and had higher capacity. Eight inch drives had gone beyond the needs of the market, and they not improved as rapidly or fallen in price as rapidly as the five inch models, so they were soon supplanted by the smaller drives. Companies which had stuck with the old eight inch technology swiftly went out of business. They were "held captive by their customers," as Christensen puts it. Companies which tried to introduce 5.25 inch drives two years after Seagate and others entered the business also went belly up. Christensen also explains that "what goes up, can't go down." Once a company begin selling to the high-end market (the "carriage trade" as it's called), it cannot easily back down and introduce cheaper models. A company selling high-capacity 60 MB eight inch drives has difficulty finding a market for cheaper, slower, less cost-effective five inch drive. Also, large companies cannot break into small markets easily. They often develop the disruptive technology, but then they seem to be at a loss over what to do with it, and who to sell it to. Christensen says these problems are caused by various complex factors such as return on investment and corporate structure. The details are beyond the scope of this discussion, but very interesting and worth reading about. These are astute observations. For long time I have felt that cold fusion will never be sold in the existing energy market, by existing energy providers, for the kinds of reasons Christensen describes in this book. The book includes many lively examples from different industries, mainly the computer hard disk industry but also steel minimills, hydraulic excavators, and insulin. It touches on my old favorite, sailing ships vs. steamships from 1850 to 1900. The writing is nontechnical and the pace is quick, although it is repetitive. It looks like a collection of essays, some of which repeat the same theme and examples verbatim. You can skip some of the chapters. You could skip the footnotes too, but they are extensive and helpful. Some are almost mini essays. Footnotes are often the most interesting part of a book. - Jed From vortex-l-request eskimo.com Tue Oct 5 13:15:23 1999 Received: (from smartlst localhost) by mx1.eskimo.com (8.9.1a/8.8.8) id NAA32697; Tue, 5 Oct 1999 13:12:32 -0700 Resent-Date: Tue, 5 Oct 1999 13:12:32 -0700 Message-Id: <3.0.6.32.19991005150345.0079e100 pop.mindspring.com> X-Sender: jedrothwell pop.mindspring.com X-Mailer: QUALCOMM Windows Eudora Light Version 3.0.6 (32) Date: Tue, 05 Oct 1999 15:03:45 -0400 To: vortex-l eskimo.com From: Jed Rothwell Subject: Re: This just came in In-Reply-To: <3.0.6.32.19991005111701.007b8100 pop.mindspring.com> References: <19991005143702984.AAA244 mail.lcia.com@lizard> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Resent-Message-ID: <"WeSU61.0.p-7.mkb-t" mx1> Resent-From: vortex-l eskimo.com Reply-To: vortex-l eskimo.com X-Mailing-List: archive/latest/30817 X-Loop: vortex-l eskimo.com Precedence: list Resent-Sender: vortex-l-request eskimo.com Status: O X-Status: I wrote: >If the entire world would abide by the engineering standards of the U.S. >and Western Europe, nuclear would be the safest form of energy, but >unfortunately most of the world is run like India, Russia, Ukraine and >China, and the Tokaimura plant in Japan. This thought is incomplete, and confusing. I meant to say that if we must have badly engineered power plants run by idiots, they should be combustion plants, not nuclear. Nuclear energy requires higher standards of education and tighter control. A combustion plant can cause damage. Russian plants explode sometimes the coal supplies are soaked in rain. A U.S. expert from the T.V.A. told me the T.V.A. is assisting them with this problem. The point is, this kind of damage is localized and of short-term duration compared to the damage from a fission plant disaster. I think natural gas is the best choice of fossil fuels. Coal is the worst, but unfortunately it is the cheapest and most abundant in many parts of the world. - Jed From vortex-l-request eskimo.com Tue Oct 5 13:24:35 1999 Received: (from smartlst localhost) by mx1.eskimo.com (8.9.1a/8.8.8) id NAA03050; Tue, 5 Oct 1999 13:15:38 -0700 Resent-Date: Tue, 5 Oct 1999 13:15:38 -0700 Message-ID: <001201bf0f6d$ef83afe0$dc71fea9 hal-9000> Reply-To: "dwenbert" From: "dwenbert" To: Subject: Re: Monju breeder reactor Date: Tue, 5 Oct 1999 16:12:22 -0400 MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit X-Priority: 3 X-MSMail-Priority: Normal X-Mailer: Microsoft Outlook Express 4.72.3110.5 X-MimeOLE: Produced By Microsoft MimeOLE V4.72.3110.3 Resent-Message-ID: <"3A7Sl3.0.Zl.gnb-t" mx1> Resent-From: vortex-l eskimo.com X-Mailing-List: archive/latest/30819 X-Loop: vortex-l eskimo.com Precedence: list Resent-Sender: vortex-l-request eskimo.com Status: O X-Status: The simple fact is that until and unless the Cold Fusion Elite can get off their grids and make something useful, fission Breeder Reactors are mankind's best hope of avoiding Greenhouse Death, period.

We Should Be So Lucky that Japan is developing a weapons program. They aren't. They are far more pragmatic than that and will rely on US deterrance where China is concerned (probably at their peril), but to denegrate breeder technology which is so obviously in the best interest of mankind is unbelievably stupid. No nuclear facility should be allowed to operate which does not incorporate breeder technology, at least until a practical, working Cold Fusion reactor is demonstrated. We Need The Power.

I do not think there is a cold fusion elite. Some people put on airs, pretend to be elite, and sit on their . . . uh, grids, but they are fakers. They claim they have secret cold fusion devices but actually they have nothing. People who make real contributions are not sitting. They are trying very hard to make something useful. I do not see why plutonium breeder reactors are better than uranium reactors. The Breeder Reactor is a wonderful thing, which not only eliminates all of the nasty waste of fission technology, but also delivers unlimited fuel. Uranium is so abundant it is effectively unlimited. Surely we will not need it for more than 200 years or so. Something better will come along by then. The nasty waste should be put aside in a safe place, where we can get to it. Probably in a generation or two people will find a good use for it. Today's garbage is tomorrow's gold -- that has been the pattern of history. There is no greater connection between breeder technology and a nuclear weapons program than there is with an ordinary nuclear power plant. Breeder reactors produce plutonium which is "much easier" to make nuclear weapons with, according to the New York Times article. It is also much more toxic. Jed, what's holding up CF, anyway??? In a word: money. Actually, nothing is holding it up. Talk to people who like Storms and Mizuno and you'll be amazed at how rapid progress is, considering how little they have to work with. They make more real progress by themselves than two-thousands people working on hot fusion. Unfortunately, the problems they face may not be solvable in one man-lifetime. If thousands of skilled people were working on the problem, progress would be immeasurably swifter. (Skilled people, not grid-sitters.) The problems do not call for fundamental breakthroughs in physics or acts of genius. They are far simpler than the challenges facing the hot fusion program, or the breeder reactor for that matter. For the most part, these are ordinary material problems, the sort of thing a chemical company would deal with in a project to improve the quality of house paint. The people who develop incandescent lights probably know how to solve Mizuno's difficulties with disintegrating glow discharge electrolysis cathodes. If they cannot help, maybe the people who make jet engine fan blades can. Some people say there is no theory to explain CF, which will be a serious stumbling block. Others, like Mizuno, say this is not such a problem. I think Mizuno and other electrochemists are used to dealing with murky chemistry and material science difficulties, without deep theoretical understanding. I wonder if the theories for things like fission are as good as they are cracked up to be. I have seen many successful CF experiments, in person and in the literature. I expect that if the political problems could be solved, the technical difficulties would be quickly overcome. Of course we cannot be sure, but people like Fleischmann, Mizuno and Ohmori say they do not think the problems are particularly onerous. They have had a lot of experience developing practical, industrial applications. To put it in perspective, IBM, Burroughs and others each spent more than $100 million developing the thin film disk drive head in the 1970s. My guess is that the challenges they faced were larger and more expensive to overcome than anything facing CF. With that kind of money in CF most of the technical problems would evaporate overnight. (The thin film disk drive head lasted only 10 years before being supplanted by magneto-resistive heads, but it was still worth the half-billion dollars.) - Jed From vortex-l-request eskimo.com Tue Oct 5 14:56:36 1999 Received: (from smartlst localhost) by mx1.eskimo.com (8.9.1a/8.8.8) id OAA23969; Tue, 5 Oct 1999 14:54:44 -0700 Resent-Date: Tue, 5 Oct 1999 14:54:44 -0700 Message-Id: <3.0.6.32.19991005175423.0079a500 pop.mindspring.com> X-Sender: jedrothwell pop.mindspring.com X-Mailer: QUALCOMM Windows Eudora Light Version 3.0.6 (32) Date: Tue, 05 Oct 1999 17:54:23 -0400 To: vortex-l eskimo.com, vortex-l@eskimo.com From: Jed Rothwell Subject: Re: This just came in In-Reply-To: <199910051731755.SM00354 [192.168.0.2]> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Resent-Message-ID: <"mXfvM3.0.Ms5.ZEd-t" mx1> Resent-From: vortex-l eskimo.com Reply-To: vortex-l eskimo.com X-Mailing-List: archive/latest/30822 X-Loop: vortex-l eskimo.com Precedence: list Resent-Sender: vortex-l-request eskimo.com Status: O X-Status: Rick Monteverde wrote: People these days must be packing some piss poor narcotics between their ears to be able to come up with the sort of stuff like Beckmann has.

Well, if they can reduce the accident rate here, I think it would improve the average traffic speed in Atlanta. The rate varies tremendously from day to day, dependent mainly on accidents as far as I can tell. There are particular spots in the highway where people speed and cause man accidents. Bumps that warn the drivers that tricky merge lanes are ahead, or make them drop their cell phones and pay attention might help. Lots more speeding tickets automatically issued by computerized cameras would do wonders. In nearby cities they have cut accident rates by two-thirds. If everyone would drive 55 instead of sometimes 30 mph (because of accidents) and 80 mph (because they can), we would all get to work on time. Sometimes counter-intuitive measures work. Fortunately for me, I commute only two miles over surface roads, but the traffic in Atlanta is rated second worst in the nation, after LA, I think. - Jed From vortex-l-request eskimo.com Tue Oct 5 15:14:11 1999 Received: (from smartlst localhost) by mx1.eskimo.com (8.9.1a/8.8.8) id PAA04943; Tue, 5 Oct 1999 15:10:46 -0700 Resent-Date: Tue, 5 Oct 1999 15:10:46 -0700 X-Mailer: Microsoft Outlook Express Macintosh Edition - 4.5 (0410) Date: Tue, 05 Oct 1999 12:10:39 -1000 Subject: Re: This just came in From: "Rick Monteverde" To: vortex-l eskimo.com Mime-version: 1.0 X-Priority: 3 Content-type: text/plain; charset="US-ASCII" Content-transfer-encoding: 7bit Message-Id: <199910051810146.SM00354 [192.168.0.2]> Resent-Message-ID: <"yygL03.0.9D1.bTd-t" mx1> Resent-From: vortex-l eskimo.com Reply-To: vortex-l eskimo.com X-Mailing-List: archive/latest/30823 X-Loop: vortex-l eskimo.com Precedence: list Resent-Sender: vortex-l-request eskimo.com Status: RO X-Status: Jed - > There are > particular spots in the highway where people speed and cause man accidents.

As regards CF: The theories are many, and more importantly of several types. Coulomb barrier surmounting theories have shown this is no longer a serious theoretical problem. Loading theories (e.g. the Q1D model) demonstrate how and why the electric field intensity RULES. The Optimal Operating Point theory demonstrates where to drive the systems in the complex phase space of input electrical power. The Phuson theory explains the loading problem and the coupling to the phonons. Peter Hagelstein is doing a great job expanding knowledge of this - which may now be the most critical for understanding (check for my paper in the upcoming Fusion Technology Jan 2000). Material breakdown is handled by a different group of theories including the Catastrophic active medium theories which handle the deteriorating lattice.

It comes from gravity causing the vortex to wobble, and if done properly that action can be tapped. If done unproperly the effect is snuffed out, much like snuffing out a flame.

The theorized Casimir Force, F = k*Area/d^4 doesn't preclude the possibility that a natural vortex requires a larger diameter to extract energy from the interaction between the gravitational field and Vacuum Fluctuations/Waves. You can't do much surfing or extracting wave energy from the ocean without the interplay of gravity and water oscillations/waves. :-) You can buy livestock tanks 10 feet in diameter or larger at farm-ranch supply stores, or if you need larger-deeper ones, tank fabricating entities can fabricate the for you. > > Schauberger and many others have tried building the simple vortex, tornado > type, like could be built in a 55 gallon drum and although it looks very > prossible all have failed.

A tornado, waterspout or hurricane is a synergistic interaction of thermal, gravitational-buoyancy, and most likely ZP Waves. >Almost like how science does not seem to recognize the > buoyancy force is really the force of gravity pulling the more dense beneath > the less dense. Hydropower comes about synergistically by solar evaporation of water, gravity-buoyancy of water vapor rising thousands of feet, upper atmosphere condensation/precipitation and gravity powered potential energy. You could run a cable-tethered hydrogen balloon with a water payload up the side of Mt. Everest, absorb or compress the hydrogen for reuse and although rather impractical, extract enoumous amounts of hydropower when the water flowed down a penstock tube. :-) I jokingly suggested something similar using a freon liquid and vapor piping system, to an engineer that works for a large air conditioning company, in the early 70s, and he threw in with a University Professor, and patented it. :-) > >I see my posts on this have not met any real dispute.

Wrong, gravity changes the permittivity of space and alters the velocity of light, v = (1/k*eo*uo)^1/2, which makes a bit of astronomical confusion between gravity red shift and doppler red shift.

I know Martin Fleishmann; we brought him to Orlando for some strategic meetings in 1990. It amazes me that there isn't a better handle on CF by now. The lack of a consistent, comprehensive theory doesn't bother me. It was SEVEN YEARS after the first commercial transmission of electric power, from Niagra Falls to Buffalo, New York, that the English physicist James Thompson discovered the electron. So, it is not necessary to know WHAT cold fusion is, as long as we can interpret the dynamics of HOW it functions. As to the issue of nuclear waste, however: The technology to reutilize nuclear wastes to reclaim energy has been around for a long time. It involves the use of Chlorine to absorb radiation, pumping it to higher and higher metastable states and then photoionizing it. As it absorbs such energy, its reactivity with hydrogen increases exponentially, becoming the most powerful chemical reaction known. Chlorine is a *FAR* better oxidizer than oxygen. The real payoff is probably to be found in high voltage arc dischage electrolysis of a D20 soluition of Potassium Chloride, using Mill's hydrocatalysis reactions of KOH to release EUV which is picked up by the Chlorine. There is strong reason to suspect that oppositely ionized DCl/DCl collisions in a combusting plasma front will catalyze D+D fusion; the Chlorine nucleii are far more massive than Muons..... Kistiakowski proposed a photocatalyzed DCl reaction as an atom bomb trigger at one point.

Doesn't preclude nor address from what I can gather. But my understanding of the physics speak is limited. Maybe those who know can addess this. And in my theory the energy not coming from the "Vacuum Fluctuation/Waves" but from the way gravity affects the vortex and makes it wobble, it total, like a top. All previous work addresses the "chaotic sense" of the vortex as Curt Hallberg puts it. Whirlpower is unique! And by the way, for those interested in Cold Fusion, Curt Hallberg at , says he will be comparing Whirlpower to Cold Fusion in his upcoming on-line bench test. And predicts "Battleship Whirlpower" will blow Cold Fusion right out the water. > >You can't do much surfing or extracting wave energy from the ocean without >the interplay of gravity and water oscillations/waves. :-) And it has to be done exactly the "right way" or the surfer wipes out. >You can buy livestock tanks 10 feet in diameter or larger at farm-ranch >supply stores, >or if you need larger-deeper ones, tank fabricating entities can fabricate >the for you.

I greatly disagree. Einstein said, "his theory hinged on the exact measurement of 1.75", in the gravity telescope but that measurement has never been reached exactly. In my post "The Curve" it is quite apparent that a measurement of refraction would not cause condensed light in the first place and the measurement has never come up to prediction because the refraction measured is coming from the slipstream effect of gravity's repulsion of light not attraction of light. Plus the candle flame experiment on the shuttle shows a round candle flame in the lack of gravity, not light being pushed away as it does on Earth. Proof positive in my book. How funny it is going to be when school children are shown to understand light before the scientists do. :) David Dennard The Phoenix "he found the fizz in the physics" http://www.whirlpower.cc ______________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com From vortex-l-request eskimo.com Tue Oct 5 20:31:08 1999 Received: (from smartlst localhost) by mx1.eskimo.com (8.9.1a/8.8.8) id UAA06893; Tue, 5 Oct 1999 20:28:55 -0700 Resent-Date: Tue, 5 Oct 1999 20:28:55 -0700 Date: Tue, 05 Oct 1999 20:27:28 -0700 From: Lynn Kurtz Subject: Re: Whirlpower Theory & The Casimir Force Connection In-reply-to: <19991006030105.15577.qmail hotmail.com> X-Sender: kurtz imap2.asu.edu (Unverified) To: vortex-l eskimo.com Message-id: <199910060328.UAA28888 smtp.asu.edu> MIME-version: 1.0 X-Mailer: QUALCOMM Windows Eudora Pro Version 4.0 Content-type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Resent-Message-ID: <"weMYZ2.0.bh1.t7i-t" mx1> Resent-From: vortex-l eskimo.com Reply-To: vortex-l eskimo.com X-Mailing-List: archive/latest/30831 X-Loop: vortex-l eskimo.com Precedence: list Resent-Sender: vortex-l-request eskimo.com Status: O X-Status: At 08:01 PM 10/5/99 -0700, you wrote: > >I agree.

For nuclear this is reasonable, but for biologic, oxygen RULES. Chlorine produces PCBs [polycholinated biphenyls] out of ordinary amino acids.

How does your theory >account for this? Hi Lynn, I replied in the first "Bubbles" post where I said I was going try and pull all this together. Maybe wishes are like fishes. :) Anywho, it is all about relative density. If a something is less dense than the surrounding area gravity pulls the more dense beneath it and repels it. I replied to your question saying the density is eventually balanced thus the excited H20 molecule reaches buoyancy threshold and does not continue into space. In fog it shows heat causes steam but it takes gravity to evaporate. When the density threshold is already met the vapor goes nowhere but into the bank of fog. What is really new and very important to understand that space has density too, unlike what Einstein thought. And that space is more dense than a photon. Now, how can such light things be measured, that is the question. As shown in "The Curve" we have measurements of light that don't match up to Einstein's predictions. He stated very clearly they had to match exactly. In my theory I propose and up and down light test of intensity. This "Dennard's Interferometer" should easily show the light pointing up will more intense than light pointing down.

One unsupported Olympian pronouncement, when challenged, is then buttressed by another unsupported Olympian pronouncement! The mind reels with wonderment at the thought of what the next reply would be, if the second statement were to be questioned! Well, I'll not waste my time asking Jed how he knows that any clandestine purpose would inevitably leak, because it is obvious to anyone with more than a room-temperature IQ that he doesn't know that at all. Governments manage, on a routine basis, to keep secrets all over the world, and the secrets kept in many cases concern matters which, if widely known by the general public, would cause the affected governments to fall. Despite that, such secrets are frequently kept for decades, or even centuries, before coming to light. Here are some examples: (1) The British Secret Service killed Napolen Bonaparte by adding small doses of arsenic to his food, while he was a prisoner on Elba, and the secret was kept for more than 150 years, until a lock of his hair was analyzed in the latter half of this century and found to contain immense quantities of arsenic. Later, when his remains were examined, the arsenic poisoning hypothesis was confirmed. Had that information come to light when the perpetrators were still in office, the government most certainly would have fallen, but neither event, in fact, happened. (2) Similar top secret skulduggery remained unleaked vis-a-vis the alleged Spanish sinking of the U.S. battleship Maine, which was the pretext for U.S. entry into the Spanish-American War. ("Remember the Maine!" was the slogan that Roosevelt's rough riders shouted at the Battle of San Juan Hill.) It was three quarters of a century later, after the guilty parties were long dead, that the remains of the Maine were examined by divers, and it was revealed that the plates in the hull of the vessel were bent outward, indicating an explosion originating from inside the ship, rather than inwards, as would have been the case if the Spanish had been the guilty parties. The likely culprits: individuals within the American government who wanted to justify war with Spain. (3) The sinking of the Lusitania, allegedly by the Germans, was the major factor propelling the U.S. into World War I on the side of the Allied Powers. However, when the remains of the Lusitania were finally examined, many decades later, the results were the same as for the Maine: the hull was breached from the inside out, rather than from the outside in, once again suggesting that the sinking was staged by parties who wanted to bring the U.S. into the war, rather than caused by a German attack. (4) And, of course, there is the obvious example: the Holocaust was kept secret not merely from the German people, but also from people in the Allied nations, until the end of the war, when the conscience of the world was shocked by the newsreel footage that began flowing out of the captured Nazi concentration camps. Given the above examples, and thousands of others, illustrating the ease with which government perfidy can be kept out of the mainstream press, the fact that secrets can be kept is not really an issue in most peoples' minds. As to *how* they are kept, despite the moral outrage which must be felt by some of the individuals within the government who have access to such information, the answer is obvious: would-be whistleblowers in the intelligence community are deterred from speaking out by the very large penalties for disclosure of classified information. They know that reporters will seldom print such information unless supplied with ironclad proof of its authenticity, and they know that once a reporter has been convinced, the approval of an editor, and, for a big story, the owner of the newspaper, will then be required. Thus too many people must be brought into the loop, resulting in a large risk of exposure. Result: in most cases the fear factor kicks in, and the morally outraged individual reluctantly decides to remain silent. What happens when such an individual overcomes his fears and comes forward anyway? Simple: the editors and owners of the mainstream media outlet make "discreet inquiries" to their friends and associates in the government, who make it clear in no uncertain terms that the source is probably either (a) a disgruntled former employee with fake documents, or (b) a nut who, despite his claims, never worked for an intelligence agency. Result: the reporter is sent back to his source with a demand for corroboration, in the form of a *second* witness, or *more* documents, etc. That contact, naturally, is monitored by intelligence agents, who identify the source, take him to a room, sit him under the bright lights, and use a rubber hose to explain his "rights" to him. Shortly thereafter he backs away from his claims, the relieved reporter drops the story, and the secrecy is preserved despite the "leak." That's the way the game is played in the real world, Jed's wishful thinking to the contrary notwithstanding. --Mitchell Jones}*** A >"secret" nuclear bomb program in Japan is about as plausible as a secret >U.S. - U.N. fleet of black helicopters and P.O.W. camps.

To the contrary, they lust for power over their neighbors just as surely as over their own fellow countrymen, and, given the opportunity, they will act to achieve that power.

He will be at the Edina Community Center on Oct. 8. He has been offered a $5000 prize by Eric Kreig http://www.voicenet.com/~eric/skeptic/ , to demonstrate a working F E machine and he has ignored it. Now he is working with International Marketing Co. of Urbandale IA. Their plan is to scam people out of $275 each by getting them to invest in a trust. $200 goes into a trust which will hold the money until Dennis's latest front company, International Tesla Electric Co. (ITEC) is ready and able to deliver a 15 KW generator. Since Dennis has no F E generator, or else he would silence Eric Kreig by demonstrating the machine to him and pocketing his $5000 too, this will happen about the same time that hell freezes. The literature says that,"this may never happen." The suckers who invest (waste) money are encouraged to get 49 of their neighbors to also put up $275 to form an electrical co-op. This co-op will accumulate $10,000 from 49 additional suckers (investors) at which time it will be full. The first sucker is encouraged to do this by the prospect of free electricity and the $25 per head that he gets from the people he recurits. I am offended by Dennis's using God's name in an effort to sell this scam. I am also offended by his use of MLM methods to spread his scam and suck more money into his operation.

The vortex list was designated for serious discussion of anomalous science, especially regarding experimental results, and theory relating to those results, or to anticipated experiments. However, brief off topic forays are often tolerated or even welcomed here by some because the list is populated with tolerant people, and the list is only lightly moderated. The vortexB list was specifically created as a place to take political debate, protracted arguments, discussion of pop science like flying saucer or alien encounters, etc. The freenrg list is for hobbyist level (or above) discussion of free energy experiments. There is a moderated list ( moderated by Scott Little if I recall correctly) avaiable for serious scientifc discussion of specific experiments at the professional level, if more people like Storms, Puthoff, etc should decide to make themselves available for such. That list presently has no message volume. When there are no serious experiments to discuss, and message volume is low, off topic stuff is tolerated much more than when something of on topic interest develops. It is still important to continue to realize protracted debate regarding politics is off topic, as is protracted eigth grade science level discussion, or any discussion which degenerates to ad hominim attack. That way there should be no surprise or offense if or when members call for a move of discussion.

Just thinking about it for a moment, it seems that an electric current would try to flow in the needle, as it fell through the flux lines of the magnet, thereby causing the needle to momentarily acquire its own magnetic field, with the flux lines rotating in the opposite direction as those from the bar magnet. That would produce an effective north pole to north pole configuration, and a torque tending to rotate the pin. However, as that torque was acting, the current flow in the pin would be reversing, and so would its magnetic field. Result: by the time the orientation of the needle was reversed, the orientation of its magnetic field would also be reversed, and thus the north pole to north pole orientation would persist, and so would the rotational torque acting on the pin. There is probably no free energy here, of course, since the entire process depends on the presence of an external force to keep the needle in motion. By the way, what do you think of Fred's speculation's about "Glass Jar ZPE Motors"? As I understand it, he thinks that if you were to hang an empty pickle jar from a nylon monofilament thread, with one end attached to the center of the lid, and the other end attached to a very low friction swivel, the thing would go into fairly rapid CCW motion, and persist in that state until the swivel wore out. It seems silly to me, of course, but then so does his "OU Coffee Cup" heater, and I haven't satisfied myself that I have refuted that yet, either. I plan to make another push to investigate both of those claims, as soon as I get the time.

If memory serves, the original necessity for maglev was to permit energy free vacuum tube transportation (envisioned at least a century ago) in which case maglev is maybe not so foolish, especially if it can be had for no continual energy output.

For more realistic ideas check out Sandia Labs: http://www.sandia.gov/pulspowr/ppeng/seraphim.html I suspect, with adaptation, their SERAPHIM method of using AC induction for pushing on the leading edge of grooves cut in metal rails could be used for either propusion or levitation, or both plus centering the train by using a T rail. There is an energy/cost trade-off, but the idea apparently is in the range of the practical for at least propulsion. Here is a quote from their site: "The Segmented Rail Phased Induction Motor (SERAPHIM), developed at Sandia National Laboratories, is a compact, pulsed linear induction motor (LIM) offering a unique capability for high-speed train propulsion. It uses technology developed for the Sandia coil gun, an electromagnetic launcher designed to accelerate large projectiles to several kilometers per second! For a train at sea level, however, the power required to overcome air resistance limits the operational speed to a more modest 300 mph."

I agree that the SeRaPhIM method holds great promise; however, there are still questions about whether the tracks will withstand the loads associated with a train moving at speeds approching 500 kilometers per hour. Also, SeRaPhIM systems exist as models only and Georgia is not interested in being the guinea pig. SeRaPhIM was in consideration for the Orlando system. I wonder what happend to that one? I agree that maglev is nonsense. Wheeled systems, even high speed ones, cost on the order of $10M per mile to construct. Regarding the vacuum systems, the Swiss are planning Swissmetro, a maglev that would run in a partial vacuum in a network of subterranean tubes. Although the vacuum would substantially reduce the energy consumption of the trains, tunnel construction costs are estimated to consume a whopping 75 % of project funds. Hey, did you know that the first subway system in NYC was a pneumatic system?

We have a new system here in Georgia. The newly created Georgia Regional Transportation Authority is over DOT and other transportation authorities in hopes of thawing those Federal funds frozen due to our air quality problem. The Georgia Passenger Rail Authority is pushing the maglev to Chattanooga with support of the Feds. Amtrak is not involved. Why Chattanooga? My question also. They have a newly renovated airport there and Atlanta/Hartsfield is overwhelmed with traffic. But, now get this, we are about to undertake a $4B expansion to Hartsfield Airport -- even though the real problem is the air corridor, not the number of runways. Heck, for $4B we can expand the Macon, GA airport *and* build high speed (wheeled) trains to Macon. Plus, this keeps the revenue in the State. My company is Parson Brinckerhoff Quade and Douglas, based in One Penn Center, NYC. ENR just rated us #1 in transportation engineering for the 11th year in a row. The "Parson" was they guy who built the first NY subways.

If you are referring to the Fair Weather Field, it is about 135 volts/meter at sealevel and about 20 volts/meter at 15,000 ft. Why assume that Zero Point Fluctuations (Energy) are electrical in Nature, even though there could be zillions of frequencies/wavelengths propagating at c? Water waves (Transverse)dump a lot of energy without any EM properties involved, don't they? And if you excite-create them with the proper wavelength they can take on "optical-optomechanical" properties.

Somehow that argument doesn't make sense to me. With maglev you ultimately have exactly the same loads (assuming a cushy suspension system) and geologic problems plus the additional uncertainties associted with magnetic suspension which can "bottom out" or otherwise fail. The roadbed has to carry the same loads. The rails themsleves and wheels require engineering for higher speeds, but any limitations you might have for wheels you ultimately have to deal with one way or another with maglev, even if it is only in the form of failure protection. One exception with wheels is the problem of direct wear. Perhaps rail based air cushion technology would be a good compromise. Some details along those lines have been tested on rocket sleds if memory serves. Maybe somebody at China Lake could help you out. For some reason I realy like the idea of a tube, even if a good part of the tube is open. It sounds structurally much better than tracks, and derailing should not be a problem. Air cushion pads with suspension arms should work well for centering the train in the tube or tube-like framework. >Also, SeRaPhIM systems exist as models only >and Georgia is not interested in being the guinea pig.

I'll bet a large portion of that 75% can be avoided by going overhead - although Switzerland and Tennessee aren't exactly flat! A straight enough path through the mountains may be a problem for the Swiss. Undergound would also fit in with their defense strategy much better too. It may be possible to put in a high speed overhead system in conjunction with the freeways here in the USA. > >Hey, did you know that the first subway system in NYC was a >pneumatic system?

Well, at first I did, and it went on for a l-o-o-o-n-g time, so I almost began to believe that something important was going on. However, eventually the thing stopped turning and began to rotate in the CW direction. But it did not do that for very long before reversing and going CCW again. After watching it for awhile, it became apparent that it was oscillating like a pendulum, but doing it by first twisting the thread to the right, then to the left, etc., rather than by swinging back and forth. Then, after more than an hour, it ceased all movement, and began to hang motionless. At that point I made a mark on the rim and stood a dowel next to it, to mark the equilibrium point, and then removed the glass from the jar, leaving the lid hanging from the thread. When I released it, the thread shortened by several inches due to the reduction in the weight, but when the lid stopped moving, the mark was next to the dowel, indicating that there was no invisible spiral of twisted fibers remaining in the thread. Apparently there had been such a spiral at the beginning, but by hanging the weight of the pickle jar on the thread for more than an hour, those internal fibers had been straightened out. Thus I expected that, when I re-hung the pickle jar on the thread, it would merely rotate back and forth around the equilibrium point, showing no tendency to rotate preferentially in one direction over the other, and that is exactly what happened. Conclusion: Fred's impression that something odd was going on must have been formed either the first time he hung a weight from his thread, before the internal fibers had been stretched into straightness, or else he used a monofilament line that was much stronger than needed to support his jar, and thus one which required a much heavier weight than his jar to straighten its internal fibers. That, of course, is a question which only he can answer. My suggestion to him, however, is that he hang a weight on his line that is almost heavy enough to break the line, and leave it there for a couple of hours. That should be enough to straighten out its internal spiral, and, after that, I think he will find that his anomalous behavior will go away. --Mitchell Jones}*** ----------------------------------------------------------------------- The Jed Rothwell equation: "to disagree" = "to be insane."

Hi Thomas, I have noticed you have a belief in God and I mention God in my work too that many object to. I just hope you and everyone realize I have not taken the route of trying to start a business with Whirlpower. But I don't object to those who try to raise money to try new stuff. Only when scientists misrepresent or steal other folks ideas do I have an objection. This may backfire in my face if someone steals my work and that is reason I hope someone will one day publish my ideas. I have real test of principle model. Publication to a larger audience will give those most talented at scientific experiments a chance to build a whirlpool and see what it will do. We see some pretty good interest on the "swinging vortex". I think has a chance of working but little chance of generating the kind of power needed or the kind of power Whirlpower can produce. But it is definately in the same ballpark. You asked earlier if I knew of Russel's work. Not really. Someone mentioned him to me recently and said it was similar. I have not actually seen it yet but from what I understand he had a concept of density that is similar to mine.

That the levitator actually produces what can be called a force field is interesting in the context of the Allende Letters where "Carlos" alleges that this is what the PX was all about (generating a "force field"). Here are the possible similarities to Allende's description: 1. He alleges that putting ones hand in the field produced a detectable sensation. (not that I am entirely sure this occurs with the actual levitator but it seems to me that if eddy currents can be generated in the pie pan then the same kind of currents would appear in the conductive cells and salty blood plasma in one's hand, etc) 2. Resonance is used to achieve the effect. 3. Concentric coils similar in configuration to that which might be used in degaussing experiments. 4. Runs on available 60 hz power 5. Water may boil coming in contact with the affected experimental object. If one puts water in the pie pan the weight of the water will overcome the levitation field, but the water will boil. (Theory: the ship was not levitated due to excessive weight but apperently boiling of the water around the hull was a side effect creating fog around the ship) The one thing missing is the highly ionized air static felt because I don't think the levitator will produce that due to the fact that the maximum AC voltage is only about 220 vac. But higher voltages might come about in a larger scale experiment. I am hoping there might be a way to scale down the levitator as it is described in the following so I will not have to gather up 46 non polarized 330 volt ac capacitors (184 uf). Hopefully I can get by with 2 - 24 uf 330 v units that I do have on hand. I am not necessarily interested in levitating anything but I am interested in the effects that may be produced by the 180 degree phasing of the coil currents that seems like an unusual thing to me. I would appreciate any suggestions along these lines as may seem reasonable. Attached is a gif drawing that will help everyone follow the word description that is about to occur after I finish these introductory comments. Note my clever color coding of the individual coils that is not available in the original write-up. (I am an "artiste") :-) There are four separate coils in the circuit, which is consistent with the idea that there were coils wrapped around the ship and a "toroid" of some kind, very heavy, inside the ship. The original text gives complete construction details for the thing including number of turns and wire gauge which may be helpfull in determining the inductance values for the coils themselves, which unfortunately, is not given. My hope is however that we can use microcap to simulate the operation of the levitator as described because from that point I could work with it in simulation until I got to a design I think I could actually build that more suits my purposes. (I want to "feel" a force field if nothing else- hopefully my hand will not become embedded in the pole pierces or anything like that as was depicted in the movie). ** Alright, Alright! ;-) Here's the technical description: The operation of the levitator is based on Lenz's law. The pole pieces are arranged in a six armed star array as geometrically depicted in my sketch (physical detail of the pole pieces themselves will be sent in a separate drawing as the need arizes) . Because the pieces reverse their polarity periodically with the alternating current in the coils, the changing magnetic field induces strong eddy currents in the conducting aluminum pan. In accordance with Lenz's law the eddy currents give rise to opposing fields and the aluminum pan is subjected to an upward force in the central region of the levitator. The field along the circumfreance provides the needed stability. When the pan is displaced from the equilibrium position above the center of the device, the stronger eddy currents induced in that side of the pam nearest the periphery of the device increase the repulsive force components acting on the pan in a direction opposite to the pan's displacement. The electrical connections are as shown in the schemnatic in the upper right. The colors correspond to the respective coils in the cross section and top view drawings. The letter S and F signify Start and Finish, respectively of each coil. From the drawing hopefully it is clear that the electron current in the two inner coils (1) and (2) and in the two outer coils, 3 and 4, respectively, must have the same direction. and that the electron currents in these two pairs of coils must oppose each other if the magnetic induction shown in the cross section drawing is to be achieved. All four coils are wound in the same sense. If one now assumes that the bottom line in the schematic figure is momentarily negative, the currents in coil 1 and coil 2 appear to be in opposite directions, because the electrons flow from S to F in coil 1 and from F to S in coil 2. The same seems true of the currents in coils 3 and 4 in which electrons appear to flow from F to S in coil 3, and from S to F in coil 4. In ACTUALITY HOWEVER, the voltage across the pair of coils 2 and 4 is approximately 180 degrees out of phase with the voltage across the pair of coils 1 and 3, as can be readily seen from the following considerations: The circuit appearing in my gif picture can be simplified by combining impedances as in this ascii drawing: B E -------------*-------------* | | | ------- C2 | ------- | | D ( ( ) ) L1 ( L2 ( ) ) | | -------------*-------------* A C The resulting circuit is parallel resonant. By increasing the capacity sufficiently, the circuit is brought into resonance. Under this condition branch CE is capacitive and branch AB is inductive. If V is the applied voltage, the potential drops across AB and CE are also V. since the resistances of the coils are small, the current Il in L1 lags behind V by nearly 90 degrees, and the current Ic in branch CE leads the voltage V by nearly 90 degrees. Now the current Ic is the same in both C2 and L2 since these two components are in series. But L2 is inductive; hence, the potential drop Vcd across L2 must lead the current Ic by nearly 90 degrees. It is clear then that from the diagram Vcd is approximately 180 degrees out of phase with the potential V applied to L1. The potential drop Vde across the capacitor C2 must lag behind the current Ic by approximately 90 degrees. The sum of Vcd and Vde must equal the applied voltage. When the levitator is in operation, the measured values of Vcd and Vde are 100v and 215v, respectively.

That's a tough one! 8^) Yeah, it's those engineering ethics again. SeRaPhIM is not out of the running; however, without a working system they may only legitimize the bidding process since the Nipponese have declined to propose. We meet the proponents next month, I'll let you know!

A massive Maglev corridor isn't exactly movable or marketable. Well, uh, sure! But one of the ideas for the train is to allow people to utilize the newly rennovated airport at Chattanooga because of air traffic congestion here in Atl. Also, it has been my experience that oft times the Federal and State gov'ts dictate a particular solution for political purposes. (Yes, stifle your shock!) E.G., just prior to the '96 Olympics, we implemented a GPSS based bus tracking system for MARTA. Although we could not justify the $20M expenditure, the Feds said that we *would* do it because *they* write the checks. We saluted and implemented the system. So, now they want a maglev train over a corridor with congested air and highway traffic.

My plan, when I get around to it, is to attach a cord so I can plug the line connection into a wall socket, and attach a plug to the load connection, so that I can plug an appliance--e.g., a coffee cup heater--into it. Then, by simply counting the number of turns of the rotating disk, I will be able to determine the actual power consumption of the device. Since I will no longer have to rely on the manufacturer's specs to calculate input power, I should be able to give you a more definitive answer about whether the coffee cup heater is "over unity" or not. (I remain totally convinced that it isn't, despite my inability, thus far, to prove it.) As to why I have to count disk rotations to determine power, the reason is that the digital readout of my power company meter is in kilowatt hours. Since a 200 watt coffee cup heater will take 1/.2 = 5 hours to register a kilowatt hour of energy usage, whereas it only takes about 6 minutes for the coffee cup to boil, it is not possible to use the digital readout to determine the energy consumption. Instead, I must rely on the fact that the disk of the meter turns once for every .6 watt hours consumed, or 1666.66 revolutions per kilowatt hour. Thus I can expect roughly [(6/60)/5](1666.66) = 33.33 revolutions of the disk over the duration of my experiment, and I will, for the present, be reduced to eyeballing the disk and counting the revolutions. (There is, however, a hole in the rotating disk. Thus, when I get the time, I plan to place a small light on one side of the disk, a photodiode on the other, and wire in a counter circuit to display the number of revolutions. The count will increment each time the hole goes by, because the light will shine through at that point, affecting the photodiode.) -Mitchell Jones}*** [snip] ----------------------------------------------------------------------- The Jed Rothwell equation: "to disagree" = "to be insane."

Depending on the formulation, you can get Linear, Branched, and Cross-Linked "strands" in the same "Monofilament" with the elimination of H2O. Thus, monofilament is a misnomer, but the branching and cross-linking may give it the strength. Rayon, A Cellulose Acetate Fiber, is more likely to be a monofilament, but probably isn't very strong. > > ***{By the way, I purchased a 5-amp, single-phase, power company meter for > $50.

I have seen this statistic lately, but I have doubts about it. Do you have an original source for this? I'll look around on web next week. I expect that in metro Atlanta the automobile accounts for a much higher fraction. Perhaps in the country as a whole is is only 1/3, when you include industrial and farm districts. I think energy as a whole accounts for about 75% of air polution. That includes automobiles, aircraft, power plants, and so on, but not chemical factories. I am not sure which category blast furnaces fall into. Nowadays a lot of steel is produced at electrically fired minimills. - Jed From vortex-l-request eskimo.com Thu Oct 7 13:00:38 1999 Received: (from smartlst localhost) by mx1.eskimo.com (8.9.1a/8.8.8) id MAA18823; Thu, 7 Oct 1999 12:52:50 -0700 Resent-Date: Thu, 7 Oct 1999 12:52:50 -0700 Message-ID: <00f401bf1105$9a2cd000$7e8e1d26 fjsparber> From: "Frederick Sparber" To: Subject: Re: Glass Jar ZPE Motor?

The matter of crosslinking is VERY interesting. In people, and chickens, lack of copper (induced by eating certain foods such as chick peas) causes lathyrism. No copper. No crosslinking of collagen. No integrity of the skin, tendons, or bone. In a child with the disease, the skin can be inadvertantly ripped off by the reasonably terrified parents. When the effect is shown in a science fair type exhibit (before such things were disallowed)- a chickens neck or leg would be pulled apart by a force which could be shown to linearly decreases with the amount of chickpea material injected into the egg. (material = beta-aminoproprionitrile) Dont try this at home. And remind pregnant women to avoid chickpeas.

If the purpose of the capacitors is to get 180 deg phasing, then this is the hard way. The easy way is to take out the capacitor and reverse the connections to the appropriate coils. Since the impedance of one branch of the circuit is now changed, you will probably have to adjust the number of turns to get the desired currents and magnetic fields. 2. The capacitor is probably also used to cancel the inductive reactance (i.e. tune the circuit). However, I do not see how this improves the performacne of the levitator. All it does is improve the power factor seen by the utility. This is a small issue, since you will be a small load on the power line. 3. The device illustrated in the gif is just an induction (eddy current) levitator, much like any other. It works by I x B force on the metal plate, where I is induced by the time-varying B, which in turn is generated by the coil. The distribution of coils in a well designed system has to do with stability (e.g. so the plate will not fall off to one side) and efficiency. What's the special interest? Back c. 1970 I ran a small project to levitate molten metal---a much harder task, because liquid drains through weak and/or unstable regions in the magnetic field. ===== Michael J.

Michael: Was that with a longitudinal electrical current, through molten tin, for supporting glass, with Jim, perhaps? If so, that was much easier to solve with the Maxwell stress tensor, if memory serves.

He believed in God who not only created but sustained the universe. This flow of energy, which makes this possible, sounds a lot like the ZPE to me. At the second INE conference some researchers reported having replicated his bulk elemental transmutation machine which got my undivided attention. Unfortunately one of the researchers, Toby Grotz, recently told me that the results were inconclusive. He also designed an energy machine with conical coils. If you want to know more go to http://www.philosophy.org the site for the organization that Russell founded and http://www.geocities.com/capecanaveral/8989 This site has a representation of Russell's spiral periodic table which I really like. The curves, which look like a snake, coils around a hemisphere.

What you read was the initial article on the subject of "force fields". The text describing the operating principles of this levitator was adapted from Physics Demonstration Experiments Volume 2 Edited by Harry F Meiners (Ronald Press, 1970). Your comments are always welcome and relevant, Michael. > 1. If the purpose of the capacitors is to get 180 deg phasing, then this is > the hard way. Whoever designed this was quire clever in my opinion if it warks as indicated. What is easy for some people may be hard for others, just because of the way different individuals go about their different ways of solving a problem or inventing something. Whatever the situation this device apparently impressed Meiners, so that's good enough for me. > The easy way is to take out the capacitor and reverse the > connections to the appropriate coils.

The less power consumed by the circuit the less heat there will be, and can only be a good thing for any magnetic device's efficency and a bad thing for the power company (because they will be getting less money from me per hour that the device is used). > > 3.

You make it sound like I can go and pick one up at Wal-Mart instead of going to the trouble of building one. If you can point me to where I can read up on the subject shopping for eddy current levitators, please enlighten me. If you know of any bargains yourself I'm all ears! >It works by I x B force on the metal plate, > where I is induced by the time-varying B, which in turn is generated by the > coil.

Well here you just said efficiency so it appears to me that you are now saying that power factor is NOT a "small issue" in a good design. You aren't trying to confuse me, are you, Michael? But yes, it appears the shape and thickness of the pan is an important consideration as well. > What's the special interest? I am interested in force fields and what other effects they might produce besides levitating metals, if any. > Back c. 1970 I ran a small project to levitate > molten metal---a much harder task, because liquid drains through weak and/or > unstable regions in the magnetic field. Now with this I _am_ impressed! Do you have the schematic and construction details for THAT system? I'll pay for postage and handling if you wouldn't mind sending them to me.

Park Friday, 8 Oct 99 Washington, DC 1. CTBT I: PHYSICS NOBELISTS LEAD THE PUSH FOR THE TEST BAN. A letter signed by 32 physics Nobel laureates calling ratification of the Comprehensive Test Ban Treaty "imperative," was delivered to every member of the Senate on Tuesday. The letter, organized by APS President Jerome Friedman, called the treaty "central to future efforts to halt the spread of nuclear weapons." The Nobelists had been sitting on the letter for a year, waiting for some sign of activity in the Senate. On Wednesday, eight of them were present at the White House to join President Clinton and the Joint Chiefs of Staff in urging ratification. Charles Townes spoke eloquently for the physicists. Nevertheless, the 67 Senate votes needed to ratify simply are not there. 2. CTBT II: POLITICS PUSHES THE SENATE TOWARD THE BRINK. Debate on the Comprehensive Test Ban Treaty began today. If the Senate votes next Tuesday on ratification, as scheduled, the treaty will almost certainly be rejected, perhaps ending any hope of limiting the spread of nuclear weapons. It will be rejected, not because of flaws in the treaty, but because both parties are seeking political advantage. Republicans are determined that credit for the treaty not go to President Clinton; Democrats see a powerful campaign issue if Republicans kill the treaty. Only two days are allocated to debate what is arguably the most important treaty in history, compared to the 25 days spent debating impeachment. Surely "the world's greatest deliberative body" can do better. In this afternoon's debate, John Warner (R-VA), Chair of Armed Services, and Carl Levin (D-MI), Ranking Member, are calling for a delay in the vote to avoid certain defeat. 3. CTBT III: AMERICA'S ALLIES URGE RATIFICATION. Today's New York Times ran a remarkable op-ed signed by Jacques Chirac, Tony Blair and Gerhard Schroder. The final paragraph says it all: "The United States and its allies have worked side by side for a Comprehensive Test Ban since the days of President Eisenhower. This goal is now within our grasp. Our security is involved, as well as America's. For the security of the world we will leave to our children, we urge the United States to ratify the treaty." 4. CTBT IV: SEISMOLOGISTS SAY COMPLIANCE CAN BE MONITORED. A statement released Wednesday by the American Geophysical Union and the Seismological Society of America expressed confidence that the combined worldwide monitoring resources provided for under the treaty, including 170 seismic stations, will meet the treaty's verification goals. A CIA report leaked over the weekend expressed doubt that the CIA could detect violations, which is almost certainly true--the CIA seems to have trouble detecting a lot of things. The treaty, however, establishes an International Monitoring System. As the President pointed out, the world will detect far more tests with the treaty than without it.

So the seating capacity shrunk down to 40.During the afternoon presentation, the seating was full with some in and outs occurring. Among the recognizable faces, Fleischmann, Miles, Talbot, George, Dash, were there. The audience were properly receptive to the presentation. There was one point where Mill's position on Quantum Mechanics not being satisfactory for his Hysrino theory was criticized by Talbot. The presentations were mostly Mill's, with other staff research workers reporting on data results obtained. There was one speaker from Germany who supported Mill's Hydrino results. Mills presented some chemical products derived from his Hydrino process. They had identical chemical components as a regular chemical compound BUT had different physical characteristics. For instance a metal "poly hydride" which was stable to 650 C, flexible, and magnetic. Results where extreme ultraviolet emissions occurred with the K2CO3 reaction was covered. To be frank, the whole presentation was good, but over my head ---- anyway I was too busy recording. Whether those in attendance believed Mills is another matter. I'll have to review his presentation again as I busy myself making copies. Mills, Miley and others requested copies. -ak- From vortex-l-request eskimo.com Fri Oct 8 22:02:45 1999 Received: (from smartlst localhost) by mx1.eskimo.com (8.9.1a/8.8.8) id VAA07694; Fri, 8 Oct 1999 21:59:36 -0700 Resent-Date: Fri, 8 Oct 1999 21:59:36 -0700 Message-ID: <19991009045950.14448.rocketmail web2101.mail.yahoo.com> Date: Fri, 8 Oct 1999 21:59:50 -0700 (PDT) From: Michael Schaffer Subject: Re: Force Fields To: vortex-l eskimo.com MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Resent-Message-ID: <"AJFBd.0.3u1.uki_t" mx1> Resent-From: vortex-l eskimo.com Reply-To: vortex-l eskimo.com X-Mailing-List: archive/latest/30908 X-Loop: vortex-l eskimo.com Precedence: list Resent-Sender: vortex-l-request eskimo.com Status: O X-Status: Mitchell Swartz asked: > Was that with a longitudinal electrical current, through molten tin, for >supporting glass, with Jim, perhaps? If so, that was much easier >to solve with the Maxwell stress tensor, if memory serves. The above problem is not the levitation work I referred to. However, I worked on the glass-float problem for a couple of weeks for Jim (Prof. Melcher, my thesis advisor, for those of you who do not know) when I finished up. Of course, I learned Maxwell stress tensor as an undergrad at MIT, and I apply it where it is the most convenient way to solve a problem. In the current-tin-glass system, the main problem that I saw is that the electromagnetic force (J x B) acting on the tin is not uniform, but has a non-zero curl. Therefore, it cannot be exactly balanced by a static pressure gradient in a fluid. Thus, the unbalanced part of the force drove a rather vigorous convection in the tin, which would cause ripples in the glass floating on top, which is undesireable for the manufacture of sheet glass. The design problem is to get a good approximation to a uniform force. This requires numerical computation to solve first for the current distribution, then for B and finally for the force. The direct J x B calculation is easier in this case than the Maxwell stress tensor calculation, because both J and B are already available. ===== Michael J.

The first papers on liquid metal levitators date to the 1950s and descibe two-coil levitators of the sort I descibe in another post today. The purpose was to levitate small quantities of liquid metal, especially refractory metal, free from contact with crucible material. I am not even sure if some scientific instrument company builds such levitators or not. The inductive 'jumping ring' science demonstration might be available from science education and hobby sources. It works on the same principle. You can demonstrate the Lens' law inductive repulsion with a home made Cu ring or washer held above a coil carrying AC current. It will probably not levitate stably---the ring will tend to fall off to one side, unless you make a bowl shaped levitated object and use a coil whose diameter is a bit larger than the bowl's. I would guess that there is no "off the shelf" metal bowl levitator for sale. But I saw one on a science TV show in the 1950s when I was a kid.

There is a little information about it at: http://www.hondainsight.com/homepage.html This is a two-seat automobile with power windows, dual air bags, etc. It has a 1.0-liter, three cylinder engine and a nickel metal hydride battery system. Fuel efficiency is 61 mpg city, 70 mpg highway. One tank of gas will go 700 miles. It will be priced at "less than $20,000." (Maybe $19,999?) They expect to sell 4,000 per year. I predict they will sell a lot more than that. Toyota will begin selling a hybrid car in the U.S. next year, the Prius, which is "slightly larger than a Corolla compact car." The cost will be $20,000. Here is a good article about hybrids: V. Wouk, "Hybrid Electric Vehicles," Scientific American, October 1997, p. 70. Wouk is an automotive engineer who has designed and built a series of prototype hybrid electric vehicles beginning in the early 1970s. This technology would be easily adapted to cold fusion or other exotic energy sources. - Jed From vortex-l-request eskimo.com Sat Oct 9 09:13:10 1999 Received: (from smartlst localhost) by mx1.eskimo.com (8.9.1a/8.8.8) id JAA10159; Sat, 9 Oct 1999 09:12:01 -0700 Resent-Date: Sat, 9 Oct 1999 09:12:01 -0700 Message-ID: <37FF67B4.1FE1 ca-ois.com> Date: Sat, 09 Oct 1999 09:05:09 -0700 From: Jim Ostrowski X-Mailer: Mozilla 3.0 (Win16; U) MIME-Version: 1.0 To: vortex-l eskimo.com Subject: Re: Force Fields References: <19991009061641.10637.rocketmail web2102.mail.yahoo.com> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Resent-Message-ID: <"a2cWC.0.aU2.Hbs_t" mx1> Resent-From: vortex-l eskimo.com Reply-To: vortex-l eskimo.com X-Mailing-List: archive/latest/30912 X-Loop: vortex-l eskimo.com Precedence: list Resent-Sender: vortex-l-request eskimo.com Status: O X-Status: Michael Schaffer wrote: > > I still have a copy (paper, of ocurse) of the university research report I > wrote summarizing my levitation development work.

Anyway as you may have guessed from my original post the interest in "force fields" stems from the alleged Philadelphia Experiment which was supposed to have caused a Navy ship to vanish and teleport during WW2. A good friend of mine is obsessed with this topic and there are some interesting websites which make it evident that the controversy is still very much alive. The latest scoop is about an experiment that can be done with something called "diffraction film". I'm still trying to gather the relevant details of the experiment and I'll post what I find out under the subject "re: Force Fields" here. For the benefit of vortexers interested: There is a message board site with the most recent yax on the subject at: http://www.geocities.com/Area51/Labyrinth/9378/ And the "diffraction film" experiment, along with an image, which I just mentioned is discussed briefly amongst other related material at: http://www.viewzone.com/philadelphia.html There is also mention of a Sandia Laboratories photo of a small "particle accelerator" floating in water, generating a "green fog" taken from "Physics: Volume 2" with frustratingly no mention made of the author's or publisher's name...

Once science realizes that gravity repels light, "The Fizz in the Physics", then science will see the new "Electron Star", the "Starseed" the most dense object in the Infinite Universe. That is the real "light weaver" that turns energy back into matter. But we see very little interest in my thoughts on this list. I just hope Jean-Louis will follow through and build the world's first whirlpool to be tested scientifically. There a guy on my list doing it now, he says. The data may be just around the curve! But I have learned time and time again not to hold my breath. Supposedly there are number of whirlpools being built in several parts of the world, as I type. I wonder who will actually do it first. I am going to check out more of Walter's work. It is obvious that the scientists that don't believe in God have been writing science fiction for a very long time. We are approaching "The Crossroads" of our civilization. I think God is giving us a chance to go the right way and chose the poorest person in America to bring the message.

Superposition between a neutrino and a proton or electron is merely the difference of Phase/Chargewhich will affect the force, F = k*q1*q2/R^2 Where q1 = f (cos x) and q2 = f(sin x) with allowance made for the frequencies of q1 and q2 and R is the separation of the charges. Thus a "neutrino" with rest mass of 0.1 or 0.2 ev is "orbiting" in one of the "fractional orbits" atvery close to c, with a relativistic mass, Mrel = Mo[(Eorbit/Eo) + 1] with it's Affinity for the Proton or Deuteron or Potassium "orbited" by a neutrino, the electron's interaction can explain the "Hydrino Hydide" compound formation. It isn't out of the relm of possibility that some of this could be the result of the 3-4E10/cm^2 Solar neutrino flux.

Not too much. The individual presenters had a certain amount of English promouncing accents that may have hindered understanding everything that was said. And those data on the screen with hardly enough time to absorb them --- sort of like a flash card session with those overhead projection systems still being used. Any detailed or leading questions to Mills were handled in a 'diplomatic way' with nothing given away that would satisfy a critical scientist --- as I heard later. However in his summary speech, he invited everybody to do research with his Hydrino theory in mind. To use the three tools he used to reach the conclusions and results he obtained. What those three tools were escapes me for the moment --- I'll have to look at the tapes again.One was a special spectroscope. -AK- ps: There was a young man, an engineer by profession, exposed to chemistry in high school, and fascinated with Mill's work. He brought down his copy of Mill's thick book, driving straight down from the Bay area earlier, to get Mill's autograph on his book.

Examples: 100 C is where water boils 0 C is where water freezes Magnetic: Gauss ... the field of the earth ranges, approximately from 1/4 Gauss to 3/4 Gauss ... depending on where you are... stronger at the poles and weaker at the equator. You need maybe 50 to 250 gauss magnet to pick up small steel papers clips ... A Tesla ... as magnetic unit is 10,000 Gauss and is a VERY strong magnet and such a magnet erases magnetic tapes, the magnetic stip on some credit cards and is a little stronger than the strongest permanent magnets, This is a very simplified definition and we all would like a Vo with better teaching skills than I to give us a better definition. Aluminum sulphate beats bismuth for diamagnetism ... but the unit numbers are VERY VERY small ... maybe 1 million times smaller than can be felt with the fingers directly ..... If you have a medium sized good crystal of Aluminum sulphate... and you float it on a "little boat" made of wood, in a large glass dish of water .... you can very very faintly push the boat away from a VERY strong permanent magnet, such as a good Neodymium Iron Boron or Samarium Cobalt magnet..... where this same magnet will pick up a whole bunch of paper clips against gravity... I mould like a good "down home" defintion of the CRC units of diamagtneism and paramagnetism... Help Bil Beatty!

Introduction A correctly designed magnet or magnetic circuit (which may include soft magnetic parts) will produce a truly permanent magnetic field in air gap. This field can be utilized in several ways: To charge molecules in a moving fluid (e.g., fluid moving through a pipe). To produce an attractive force on a soft magnetic armature (e.g., door catches, separators). To produce attraction or expulsion between itself and the magnetic field produced by an electric current in a winding (e.g., motors, meters, loudspeakers). To generate currents when the magnet moves with respect to a winding or conductive sheet (e.g., generators, speedometers). To reflect moving charged particles (e.g., magnetron traveling tubes, body scanners). Most modern magnets are specially processed to enhance their performance along one preferred magnetic axis, Anistropic. It is important to specify the required magnetization axis even if the magnet is to be supplied unmagnetized. Magnets which have no preferred magnetic access are usually referred to as Isotropic and have equal magnetic properties. Hysteresis Loop As with all magnetic materials, their characteristics are shown by plotting the hysteresis loop. The magnetic induction is plotted against the magnetizing (or demagnetizing when H is negative) field H. Magnetic induction is defined as the magnetic flux per unit cross-sectional area, and, at least for test purposes, the field H is produced by a D.C. electromagnet. When an unmagnetized magnet at point O is acted on by a positive, i.e., magnetizing field +H, the induction rises to a point A known as the saturation value. At this point any increase in +H, has no further effect on the material. When G is reduced to a zero, a visible amount of induction remains. This point Br is known as the remenance, and is the flux for unit area at the H = O point after full magnetization. When a reverse or demagnetizing field is applied, the induction falls, eventually reaching the B = O point at an H value of Hcs. This value of -H which reduces B to zero is called the coercivity or Corecive force of the magnetic material. In practical use, a magnet will operate after magnetization at a point on the curve between Br and Hcs. At such a point, the magnetic energy available to produce a useful field in an air gap is proportional to the product of B and -H at that point. At one specific point on the curve this product is a maximum, known as the Bhmax or maximum energy product of the material. This value is used as a figure of merit, and in general, the higher the Bhmax, the lower the total volume of magnet needed to give the required gap field. Intrinsic Demagnetization Curves For some applications, particularly when using high coercivity materials in motors, an alternative hysteresis loop and demagnetization curve is often required, in which the Magnetic Polarization (symbol J) is plotted against YH. The J value is relative to the corresponding B value by the relationship: S I Units B = u * H + J where u is the permeability of free space c.g.s. Units B = H + 4 * J As a general comment, Hcs. is much higher than the Hcs. in high coercivity materials and is a better guide to the resistance of demagnetization in motor and similar applications. In many instances, both B and J versus H curves are shown on the same graph. Materials AlNiCo AlNiCo describes a family of materials which is derived from a common base composition comprising of aluminum, nickel, cobalt and iron with varying additions of other elements. By varying the composition it is possible to tailor the magnetic properties to meet the needs of a wide variety of end use applications. Some of these materials are produced using advanced powder metallurgical processes. These technologies permit cost-effective production of complex shapes to close tolerances often without the need for subsequent machining operations. The sintered grades of AlNiCo are also mechanically stronger than the equivalent grade of cast magnet. Features Lowest reversible temperature coefficient of magnetism Operating temperature capability up to 500 C Suited for cost-effective volume production Physical and dimensional properties more consistent than cast grades Three types of AlNiCo have been developed: Isotropic, Anistropic high remenance and Anistropic high coercivity. All perform well in service and offer benefits which suit different applications. Isotropic AlNiCo offers excellent overall performance for general applications. Antistropic AlNiCo High Coercivity: Resistance to demagnetization in demanding environments High Remenance: Maximum flux density over small air gaps Bonded Magnets Injection Molded Ferrite Injection molded ferrite is ideal for applications where a cost effective magnet needs to be combined with complex forms. Injection molded ferrite can be supplied in both Isotropic and Anistropic form, resulting in a wide range of different magnetic performances. These magnets can also be custom blended ferrite at different strengths and content (e.g. barium or strontium), with differing plastic binders, resulting in the ability to create the most suitable magnetic performance with the most suitable plastic binder. In certain applications Ferrite can be designed to perform at temperatures of up to +180 C, the only constraint is the thermal properties of the binder at elevated temperature. Injection Molded Neodymium Injection Molded Neodymium magnets are often used when a powerful isotropic magnet is required in a complex form. Injection Molded Neodymium can be molded with different levels of magnetic material in the binder to suit the application. Historically Neodymium has had a much lower operating temperature than most other types of magnet, however, injection molded Neodymium has a useful maximum operating temperature of +180 C. Compression Bonded Neodymium Where maximum performance in a Bonded Magnet is required, then Compression Bonded Neodymium offers the best solution. Ideal for two dimensional forms it has the highest remenance of all bonded magnets and can be coated to improve environmental protection.

[snip] Sure! Here is one that I think requires a QM explanation. It involves light only, but light, gravity, what's the difference! Just different messenger particles, right? 8^) Obtain 3 polarizing lenses (filters.) If not available to you then go to a store with a Polaroid sunglasses rack and use 3 pairs of glasses to perform the experiment. (Don't take the glasses apart.) It helps to bring a friend for the third hand. Hold one lens up to a light. The light is diminished and polarized. Place the second lens in front of the first by about 5 inches. Look through both lenses and adjust the second lens to minimize the light by rotating it about the axis of vision. The two lenses should now be polarizing the light at 90 degrees to each other resulting in almost no light pssing through. Slowly move the third lens in between the first two (You can actually place behind or in front just as well, but the effect is more interesting when the 3rd lens is placed in the middle, IMHO.) Explain the result.

I am now fully diverted from draining the swamp to wrestling with one of the allegators uncovered. I may have to bail out of vortex again for a while because I am now way beyond saturation. I should say that E = mc^2 is fundamental to various paradoxes and has been a primary tool for deduction of the nature of a fully quantized universe, if such exists. It feels like there is not much to work with in fundamentally quantized mechanics without it. However, I haven't even begun to consider electromagnetics, so you can see the importance E = mc^2 has at this point as a premise.

Sorry, I am not focused, plus I didn't get get my correction out in time. The QM explanation is only required when you know that photons are still filtered in the same percentages even though they come through one at a time.

The mechanics of the device are crystal clear, and quite ordinary. To explain that statement, let me break the analysis down a bit. Suppose you cut a flat circular disk from a piece of aluminum sheet, position an electric motor so that its shaft points straight up, mount the disk so it is centered on that shaft, and start it spinning at 3600 rpm. Result: air molecules that contact the surface of the spinning disk will be thrown down the tangents to the concentric circles at the points of contact. Since all tangents, when extended, lead away from the center of rotation, it follows that we will have air flow outward from the center of rotation along the surface of the spinning disk. Thus if we arrange a series of concentric ridges on the top surface of the disk and cut holes on the near sides of the ridges (the sides closest to the center of the disk), then the outward flow of air along the top surface of the disk will, when it encounters the holes, pass from the top of the disk to the bottom, before continuing on its outward course. Result: now we have air flow from the top of the disk to the bottom, which will generate lift. That means if we mount such a "Schauberger disk" with its edge flush against the inside of a paraboloid bell housing, punch a hole at the center of the housing to permit air to enter, and set the disk to rotating, air will flow in at the center of the bell housing, downward through the rotating "Schauberger disk," and out of the bottom of the bell housing, causing the entire apparatus to lift itself into the air. Thus we will have a "Schauberger flying saucer." To which I say: "So what?" Where is the mystery about the performance of this device? --Mitchell Jones}*** > > >______________________________________________________ >Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com ----------------------------------------------------------------------- The Jed Rothwell equation: "to disagree" = "to be insane."

That is: the photons that pass through a polarizing lens are a subset of those that approached it from the other side, hence filtration occurs. In addition, the planes of polarization of the photons that pass through are brought into better alignment with the axis of polarization of the filter, by virtue of having passed through it. Result: you can have a series of polarizing lenses, each of which is twisted at a small angle from the preceding one, and come out at the end with light that is polarized 90 degrees to the orientation of the first lens! (I recall reading about this effect many years ago, in a *Scientific American* article, I think.) What this proves is that the plane of polarization is, indeed, twisted as light passes through a polarizing lens, exactly as John indicated. Bottom line: QM is *not* required to explain this effect.

You fail to show which way the photon is rotated. Don't forget that single photons going through one at a time are counted (observed) by the same intensity rules governing large quantities of light. Therefore "filtering and rotating" does not explain the phenomenon. Filtering does not apply to one photon at a time. If a filter rotates photons, to what angle does it rotate them? Does it in one circumstance rotate one way and in another circumstance (context) rotate another? >That is: the photons that pass >through a polarizing lens are a subset of those that approached it from the >other side, hence filtration occurs.

You can place a series of polarizing filters that twist one way and a series that twist the other (yes in the aggregate the light polarization is rotated) but how is it single photons go through the whole bunch of filters? There is no "filtering" effect for single photons. Each photon individually makes it through the gauntlet. Do you say they are rotated one way by some filters and the other way by others magically and in the correct order to match the alignment chosen for the multiple filters?

For that matter, since I am not going to copyright the contents, you can pay for the my mailing cost only, make your own copy from the tapes, then mail the tapes back to me so some others economically minded can do the same. Somewhat a time consuming process but I think the most economical. Please keep in mind that detail deteriorates as copy on copy is made. I must retract the SECAM/PAL format offer for now. This involves another VCR that records in those formats and that runs into expense that does not seem justified. Better that the viewer get their own converter to view NTSC. My propriety control would rest only on the fact that I would retain the original S-VHS format tapes. All copies will be in the VHS format for common use. From previous experience, I have tried to record data on the projected viewgraph screen close enough to be readable in the copy VHS format. I have reported that there were not too much interaction between the presentation and the attendees. On review of the tapes making copies, I have to correct myself. Although Mills said he will be posting the papers on his webpage, I think what will be missing are the question and answer periods, Mills' short position on Quantum Mechanics and the interesting summation of the session and future, and close-up view of Mills himself as he makes his presentation. You can subjectively judge how credible he is. :) I think he (and BLP) comes across as very credible. Of course, I am an old fart that know beans about QM. A questioner, Russ George, brought out from Mills that, although with all their progress (BLP) in power production and chemical research, (all positive, on-going, and reproducible), with all the interests expressed, not much real push by "'Powers' that be" have come foward and become involved. He still has to overcome masive scientific skepticism --- especially when he is kicking QM. :) And he does invite other independant research into the Hydrino concept --- using the three tools to help along --- NMR, TOF-SIMS, XDS(?) ---. I kinda doubt many in the Vortex community have them ready to use. :) -AK- -AK- From vortex-l-request eskimo.com Mon Oct 11 13:54:10 1999 Received: (from smartlst localhost) by mx1.eskimo.com (8.9.1a/8.8.8) id NAA18457; Mon, 11 Oct 1999 13:52:36 -0700 Resent-Date: Mon, 11 Oct 1999 13:52:36 -0700 Message-ID: <00d101bf1432$99602ac0$85441d26 fjsparber> From: "Frederick Sparber" To: Cc: References: Subject: Re: Nanobubbles: Neutrino-Antineutrino Pair Production Hypothesis Date: Mon, 11 Oct 1999 14:49:04 -0700 MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit X-Priority: 3 X-MSMail-Priority: Normal X-Mailer: Microsoft Outlook Express 5.00.2615.200 X-MimeOLE: Produced By Microsoft MimeOLE V5.00.2615.200 Resent-Message-ID: <"Sj8XQ.0.JW4.Kua0u" mx1> Resent-From: vortex-l eskimo.com Reply-To: vortex-l eskimo.com X-Mailing-List: archive/latest/30970 X-Loop: vortex-l eskimo.com Precedence: list Resent-Sender: vortex-l-request eskimo.com Status: O X-Status: ----- Original Message ----- From: Horace Heffner To: Sent: Monday, October 11, 1999 12:34 PM Subject: Re: Nanobubbles: Neutrino-Antineutrino Pair Production Hypothesis Horace wrote: > At 12:13 PM 10/11/99, Frederick Sparber wrote: > [snip] > >2, Since the diameter of the neutrino ~ k*q^2/(0.5*E) (14.4 to 28.8 nanometers) > >as compared to the water molecule spacing of ~0.15 Nanometers, a nanobubble > >forms. > > Uh ... what q? Neutrinos have no charge. Don't need to, but they still have Spin +/- 1/2, (and in the nucleus) like to attach to protons-deuterons and/or electrons. Actually: Diameter ~ k*(CV)^2/(0.5*E) k = 1/(4*Pi*eo) q = CV a constant (1.602E-19 coulombs for regular particles) The SMALLER q or CV is, the smaller the diameter. E total = 0.5*C*V^2 + 0.5*L*I^2 C = 2*Pi*R*eo and V = [E/(0.5*C)]^1/2 L = 2*Pi*R*uo and I = [E/(0.5*L)]^1/2 = C*dV/dT Note that eo is a LENGTH ONLY property of space (8.84E-12 Farad/Meter) or 8.84E-12 Coulomb/(joule-meter). And uo 4*pi*1.0E-7 Newtons/ampere^2 or Henry/Meter also a LENGTH ONLY property of Space.

If The Charge is 1.6E-19 Coulombs, BUT Due to 90 degree Phase Shift y = cos x as opposed to y = sin of x, then Wave Superposition will dictate that although the Neutrino and Antineutrino will be 180 degrees out of phase with each other and annihilate, their Low Rest Mass and Superposition with an electron/positronor Proton-Deuteron will give the False Impression That They Are Neutral. > > At 2:38 PM 10/9/99, Frederick Sparber wrote: > > >Superposition between a neutrino and a proton or electron is merely > >the difference of Phase/Chargewhich will affect the force, F = k*q1*q2/R^2 > > > >Where q1 = f (cos x) and q2 = f(sin x) with allowance made for the > >frequencies of q1 and q2 and R is the separation of the charges. > > The flaw with the above is the use of the same x in both, true? Not True, Horace, draw a set of Sine and Cosine curves and their 180 degree opposites on a transparency, then lay them over each other in different combinations.

Obviously, pointing out a violation of the rules is not a personal attack, but business of the list, especially if correct. Although we have had much more flagrant offenses, a call for observance of the rules should be respected IMHO. Can't we just discuss science here?

The Vortex-L list was originally created for discussions of professional research into fluid vortex/cavitation devices which exhibit anomalous energy effects (ie: the inventions of Schaeffer, Huffman, Griggs, and Potapov among others.) Skeptics beware, the topics also wander to any anomalous physics such as "Cold Fusion," reports of excess energy in "free energy" devices, chemical transmutation, gravity generation and detection, and all sorts of supposedly crackpot claims. Please see the rules below. This is a public, lightly-moderated list. Interested parties are welcome to subscribe. PLEASE READ THE RULES BEFORE SUBSCRIBING.

If VORTEX-L proves very useful or interesting to you, please consider making a $10US/yr donation to help cover operating expenses. If you cannot afford this, please feel free to participate anyway. If you would like to give more, please do! Direct your check to the moderator, address above. Any help you can give is sincerely appreciated. 2. This is not the sci.physics.fusion newsgroup; ridicule, debunkery, and namecalling between believers and skeptics are forbidden. The tone should be one of legitimate disagreement and respectful debate. Vortex-L is a big nasty nest of 'true believers' (hopefully having some tendency to avoid self-deception,) and skeptics may as well leave in disgust. But if your mind is open, hop on board! Help us test "crazy" claims rather than ridiculing them or explaining them away. (For a good analysis of the negative aspects of skepticism, see ZEN AND THE ART OF DEBUNKERY by D. Drasin, on WEIRD SCIENCE page.) 3. Small email files please. The limit is set to 40K right now, those exceeding the limit will be forwarded to Bill Beaty. If you wish to start extremely off-topic discussions, please feel free to exchange initial messages on vortex-L, but MOVE THE DISCUSSION TO PRIVATE MAIL IMMEDIATELY. Some members are on limited service, or have to pay for received email. Diagrams and graphics can be mailed to me or John Logajan and posted on our webpages for viewing. 4. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE: when you reply to a message DON'T include the ENTIRE message in your reply. Always edit it a bit and delete something. The more you delete, the less traffic overload. The entire message should really only be included if: (A) you are replying to a message that is many days old, or (B) you are doing a point-by-point reply to many parts of a message. Many vortex users must pay by the kilobyte for receiving message traffic, and large amounts of redundant messages are irritating and expensive. So, when including a quoted message in your reply, ALWAYS DELETE SOMETHING, the more the better. 5. Please do not include any other email list in the TO line or the CC line of your messages to vortex-L. In the past this has caused thread leakage between different list and redundant messages as replies from subscribers go to both lists. It's OK to manually forward mail from other lists to vortex-L, as long as the TO line and CC line has only vortex-L and no other list. 6. "Junkmail" email advertizing will not be tolerated. While not illegal yet, widecasting of junk-email ads to listservers is against the Unwritten Rules of the Internet.

I think you just made the case for neutrinos having a charge. :-) For instance, the frequency of an Electron or Positron is ~4.26E22 Hz and is directly related to the mass of the Quarks (612*4.26E22) for the average Quark in any nucleus. The frequency of a rest mass neutrino would be ~ 0.3/(0.510E6)* 4.26E22 ~= 2.5E16 Hz and for the 612 mev frequency of the quarks in a nucleus, there is a much greater "mismatch", keeping in mind that CHARGE (irrespective of phase)IS RELATIVISTICALLY INVARIANT. Thus the rules of engagement for neutrinos and particles apply at all neutrino energies. 2*pi*R = the wavelength (Lambda) of an oscillating IN LENGTH ONLY, Superstring or String Circle or Neutrino, where the AMPLITUDE = R.. > > > Protons and electrons "zipping through nucleii" are deflected or > disruptive.

I think what we are both trying to say is that photons whose alignments are close to the filters axis can be rotated to become totally inline. The light is rotated either right or left which ever direction is needed to have it aligned with the filter, as it passes into the next lens it has already been shifted a few degrees and so it is shifted again to become aligned to the new filter, the percentage of photons that would have been absorbed if it had not previously pasted through the previous filter would have been greater.

(in this theory) > If two filters are coaligned (theta=zero) the transmission is (nearly) 100 percent (I = I0*(cos^2 theta) = I0*(1) = I0). If we say a filter rotates the polarization by some randomized or diffraction like process, then how can the second and even third aligned filters pass nearly 100 percent of the light? The light is not perturbed by a second or third pass through an aligned filter, so it is not randomized or the product of a randomized process or a fudge due to some systematic error in the polarization grid. It is a process which is fairly pure experimentally speaking. Yet a subsequent filter at 45 degrees to the first will pass about 50 percent of the light, and only 50 percent of the light, and in general at any relative angle theta we have I = I0*(cos^2 theta). The light leaving a subsequent filter is polarized in alignment with that filter. A subsequent filter aligned with that alignment will passs nearly 100 percent of the remaining light, yet any filter at 90 deg. to the prior will cancel all the light. Given that the process is not random, we are left with the question: by what mechanism is a precise amount of light selected and rotated to exactly the right orientation and passed in perfect alignment with the filter? You are invoking some magic process that can take a photon and rotate its polarization 45 deg. in one direction in one filter and then 45 deg. back in a subsequent identical filter, and do this to 25 percent of the photons passing through two properly aligned filters. This is a process for which there is no Maxwellian explanation. Or maybe you have one?

It's chance of being absorbed or shifted depends on how close it is, if the light is aligned with the filter it will pass all of it, If it has an angle of say 22.5 relative to the filter we may guess that 25 percent will be absorbed and the remainder transmitted, at 45 degrees we could guess that 50% of light makes it, at 80 degrees a very small percentage would make it. (this is assuming a simple linear scale which may not be the case) It the light is virtually aligned with the filter the chance of it not making it are very slim, 99.9 percent of the light should pass. > The light is not perturbed by a second or third pass through an > aligned filter, so it is not randomized or the product of a randomized > process or a fudge due to some systematic error in the polarization grid. > It is a process which is fairly pure experimentally speaking.

This is a process for which > there is no Maxwellian explanation. what's the problem? a photon that is at 45 degrees relative to the filter axis has a 50 percent chance of passing through being aligned to a new axis. So the photon comes through filter 1 The photon is at 45 degrees relative to the second filter, there is a 50% chance it will be absorbed. if it passes through it will leave with it's new polarization which is that of the second filter. it now heads for the third filter which is 90 degrees relative to the first filter but only 45 degrees relative to it's new polarization so there is a 50 percent chance it will be absorbed, Otherwise it is transmitted. Only 25 percent of the light that left the first lens will leave the third. What is wrong with this theory? I must be missing something as you seem to know much more on the subject that I but i really can't understand your objections. It seems you simply want to know how the light is rotated, maybe it is absorbed by the lens and re-emitted with the correct polarization, maybe there is some field, but I see no need to invoke (or do I mean evoke?) quantum physics.

Personally, I doubt that the basic permanent magnet motor could ever amount to anything substantial, but on the other hand, it might well be a great curiosity item and valuable for that reason alone. Actually, I have seen a PMM that could be made to self rotate, but then again I was not allowed to inspect it closely so I assume it was somehow rigged. Anyway, while perusing the e-bay auction site, I ran across this sale: http://cgi.ebay.com/aw-cgi/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=176887954 The most interesting thing about these magnets is not that they can be arranged in Johnson's unusual curvature, but that they have a 12,900 gauss field strength! This is the largest I have seen for a cheap permanent magnet. Anyone who has ever tried to engineer an electromagnet to this strength probably can't help but wonder why this route shouldn't be the quick and easy way to OU. However, my suggestion to those dabblers who are still pursuing Johnson's motor is to jump up a level and concentrate on the various "flux gate" or parametric methods of massively shifting a magnetic field in space with low energy investment.

For classical EM, it is just a matter of projection of the wave polarization vector (conventionally taken as the direction of the E field). The first polarizer lets only waves with a certain E direction through. The second polarizer at 45 deg to it lets 1/sqrt(2) of the E vector through (one component of a vector at 45 deg), but light intensity (power) is E^2, so the intensity is reduced by 1/half. Of course, this light has its E at the angel of the new polarizer, 45 deg to what it was after the first polarizer. The third polarizer just does the same thing again to the light that got through the first polarizer. Etc., etc. ===== Michael J.

This is all a rehash of Malus' law, I = I0*(cos^2 theta). It does nothing to descibe how the polarization is changed, how the photons are reoriented. > >For classical EM, it is just a matter of projection of the wave polarization >vector (conventionally taken as the direction of the E field). The first >polarizer lets only waves with a certain E direction through. This is not totally correct in the sense that first filter reorients a large percentage of the incoming randomly oriented unpolarized light, but I don't think you meant to addess that aspect with your comment as you are just establishing initial conditions. Still I think it is important to note that if the first filter only let incoming waves with a certain polarization vector through there would be almost no light through the first filter. The filter actively engages in changing the state of the waves passing through. >The second >polarizer at 45 deg to it lets 1/sqrt(2) of the E vector through (one >component of a vector at 45 deg), but light intensity (power) is E^2, so the >intensity is reduced by 1/half. Considering photons, the energy of each photon remains the same. The energy adjustment has to occur by controlling the photon count. Classical EM has no mechanism to handle this once events become discrete, true? >Of course, this light has its E at the angel >of the new polarizer, 45 deg to what it was after the first polarizer. The >third polarizer just does the same thing again to the light that got through >the first polarizer. Etc., etc. In both cases I think this is merely repeating the RESULTS given by Malus' law, I = I0*(cos^2 theta) or other laws without accounting for how the waveforms are actually bent into the required orientation and with just the right photon counts.

It does nothing >to descibe how the polarization is changed, how the photons are reoriented. ***{They are reoriented magnetically. To understand how this happens, you need two visual models, one representing a photon, and the other representing the internal structure of a polarizing lens. Consider, therefore, the following: (1) To develop a visual model of a photon, imagine a planet with a rocky core and an enormously deep atmosphere, in which the atmosphere is filled with negatively or positively charged sand particles (but not both). Imagine further that the planet in question is spinning at such an enormous velocity that the atmosphere shrinks in at the poles and expands outward at the equator, forming a huge spinning disk. Now, since the disk consists of charged particles moving around it in circles, there will be a very powerful magnetic field with its axis aligned perpendicular to the plane of the disk. If we now shrink this planet to the size of a photon and move it through space at the speed of light, it becomes an excellent visual model of a photon. (2) To develop a visual model of the internal structure of a polarizing lens, you need to understand how Edwin Land (the college dropout who founded Polaroid Corp.) created the first artificial polarizing lens. What he did was suspend millions of microscopic herapathite crystals (a polarizing substance) in a solution of nitrocellulose lacquer. The solution was contained in a transparent cylinder of glass a half inch in diameter and a quarter inch thick. Naturally, the millions of tiny crystals were randomly oriented in the solution, and the solution took on the reddish-black color of the crystals and was quite opaque. Land, however, had studied the experimental papers of Michael Faraday, who had discovered that the plane of polarized light was deflected to match the orientation of a magnetic field. Result: Land placed his solution within a powerful electromagnet that could generate a field of 10,000 gauss, and, when he turned it on, he discovered that "slowly and somewhat sluggishly the cell became lighter and quite transparent" and that "when we examined the transmitted light with a nicol prism, it went from white to black as the prism was turned." [*Land's Polaroid*, by Peter Wensberg, pg. 34] So there you have it: a photon is a spinning disk of electric microcharges, and has a magnetic dipole oriented perpendicular to the plane of those microcharges; and a polarizing lens consists of molecules that also have magnetic poles, and which were forcibly aligned by means of a powerful magnetic field, prior to solidification into that lens. Result: when a photon passes through a polarizing lens, its magnetic field naturally aligns to match the magnetic field within the lens through which it is passing. --Mitchell Jones}*** [snip] > >Regards, > >Horace Heffner ----------------------------------------------------------------------- The Jed Rothwell equation: "to disagree" = "to be insane."

If you don't, there is a problem somewhere. By the way: when you title something as "Test," I suspect that most people don't bother to read it. (I normally don't.) Most "Test" messages are sent out by people (e.g., new subscribers) who merely want to determine whether a post will come back to them from the vortex server.

The inquiries I am making are intended to try and piece together the experimental procedure for duplicating the alleged configuration of the so called "Philadelphia Experiment". There has been progress. Since the subject of experimental configurations involving electromagnetic fields and the like is a fit topic for this forum (vortex-l) I plan to continue to post things related to this effort to vortex-l.

I agree that the technology itself is topical. Indeed, I have had some discussions on this topic with Dr. Bruce Maccabee (aka Seagull :-), former researcher at the Naval Weapons Lab (retired) in Maryland. He believes that the anecdotal evidence regarding the USS Eldridge is a result of a degaussing experiment which was conducted in this time frame. They embedded the hulls with cables and passed varying currents through these cables in order to reduce the ships' susceptibility to magnetic mines. I have his email address if you would like to talk to him directly on this. He has done a good deal of research on this. Dr. Maccabee is very approachable even if he is in the Aviary.

If it does, then it's almost a no-brainer to make some attempt at optical cloaking for ships etc. As I'm sure you know it's been publicly revealed that ordinary lights have been used in daytime camoflage experiments on vehicles. Years ago while hang gliding off sea cliffs here in the early evening, I was flying low near some high voltage lines that came up to a point on the top of the cliff. While moving from dry air to a puff of moist air drifting up from the waves below, I experienced a strange electrical discharge phenomena. I suspected St. Elmo's fire, but the aluminum spars had no concentration of light at their tips. The strange thing about the discharge was that it was an even glow surrounding the entire glider in a spherical shape, according to observers on the ground. I specifically asked about the shape. It just doesn't seem right, as I would have guessed a closer following of the contours of the metal and human components would have occured. But if it were a reproducible effect, it would seem to be useful for hiding things within it. The image of the "transporter beam" in the old Star Trek might describe its texture best, bluish white and slightly sparkly. I do recall that the view through the light was a bit obscured, like I had light reflections in my glasses (my very first thought as the phenomena commenced), and I bobbed my head around to try to see past it before realizing that it was a real fog of light surrounding me. That means that the view of the glider was probably to some degree obscured from the ground, but I don't recall any specific witness comments to that effect. They just said that I was surrounded by a bluish sphere of light and it was really weird. Don't know if there's any connection, but a full moon was just rising at the time. The experience did teach me one thing: some UFO reports involving glowing spheres which might seem quite extraordinary at first could be mundane at their core, and simply involve strange electrical activity connected with birds, airborne debris, etc. "Strange electrical activity" seems like a perfect skeptic's brush for sweeping away quite a bit of reported phenomena, but I've seen it first hand.

Luís, MA, Brazil. It is demonstrated that gravitational and inertial masses are correlated by an electromagnetic factor. From the practical point of view this is very important because it means the possibility of electromagnetic control of the gravity. Some theoretical consequences of the correlation are: incorporation of Mach's principle into Gravitation Theory; new relativistic expression for the mass ; the generalization of Newton’s second law for the motion; the deduction of the differential equation for entropy directly from the Gravitation Theory. Another fundamental consequence of the mentioned correlation is that , in specific ultra-high energy conditions, the gravitational and electromagnetic fields can be described by the same Hamiltonian , i.e., in these circumstances, they are unified ! Such conditions can have occurred inclusive in the Initial Universe , before the first spontaneous breaking of symmetry.

Maybe that too. Our 'normal' idea about discharge is that it should follow the contours of the electrode, and a freestanding sphere of glowing charge doesn't make any sense in those 'normal' terms at all. So contortions like fat toroids and other things are tried to make sense of a spherical ball of light/electricity. For all I know, the high voltage lines played no part in this, although it would seem obvious that they would have. I don't even really know that it was electricity, as odd as that sounds. We think "of course it was electrical", but since it didn't behave like electricity as we generally know it, strictly speaking it was unknown luminous phenomena. I don't think I was ever closer to the lines than 75', and maybe not even that close. The lines came up from behind the cliff to the clifftop pole, then generally down again back behind the cliff. Gliders are always out in front of the cliff and never behind, so I was not flying along the lines in a parallel path at all, just going past that point where they came up to that one pole. We usually flew much higher, the winds were very light that day. >> - Nene Goose > > LOL!

The wave function of an electron does not represent the physical electron at all. pp 158 In 1900 Max Planck introduced his quantum hypothesis to explain the puzzling coloration of light emitted, for instance, by a hot metal object that can glow red or yellow or white depending on its temperature. pp 137 Five years later , Einstein adapted Planck's ideas to explain the photo electric effect in which absorbed light ejected from the surface of a metal. pp 137 There is a dual nature of light, in fact of all electromagnetic radiation. How can light be both a wave and a particle? Particles are concentrated, localized, and consist of matter. Waves are diffuse, unlocalized and are not themselves material but are vibrations. This dual nature of light, and of electromagnetic radiation generally is a characteristic of all Quantum Phenomena. Yet Quantum Theory never actually resolves this conflict, nor even acknowledges it AS a conflict. Quantum theory tells us the results of experiments and observations but not why they come out as they do. Quantum theory treats Nature as a black box but it never tells us what is inside the box. According to the Quantum hypothesis the box HAS no inside. Quantum theory denies that phenomena have any inner reality.

I think the theory is considered to be all worked out. However, it hasn't been applied yet to all possible situations. The math tells one how to solve the equations. The math can get intractible for many problems of interest. QM doesn't explain WHY things are the way they are. It just sets out equations that let us predict what should happen, if the theory is correct. So far, the theory has been correct. Most of the discussion and debate, I think, has to do with the WHY questions and not whether QM predicts experimental results. Semiconductor behavior is a quantum effect, as are paramagnetism and ferromagnetism and superconductivity. Diamagnetism can be disucssed with classical physics, though. > One of the basic ideas of the theory is that position, mass, > energy might be predicted .... within limits and the limits involve the > smallest possible change... a quantum. > > ...so a quantum leap is the tinyest step or leap you can make > Only in some systems.

Hey for a few moments there, I *was* a UFO. It's interesting that you should bring a persoanl experience of this kind into a discussion of anomalous phenomena such as UFO sightings. If we should believe your story, then why should we not believe what others have said they saw or experienced, such as abductions and the like? _I_ believe your story, Rick. But there is something about anecdotal evidence that "science" doesn't like, it seems. 150 witnesses saw a missile like object strike the TWA800 for example. Yet all the investigators conclude some weird, hitherto unknown phenomena that has never occurred in millions of air hours of the Boeing 747, a spontaneous explosion of the center wing tank, was resopnsible for the deaths of all those people. The government lies, practically all the time. That fact should be kept in mind by anyone who investigates anything connected with government activity. What your story indicates is that there ARE unexplained electrical effects on visibility. Good. Now that's a confirmation right there that something like the alleged story of the PX ship being enveloped in a green fog of some kind could be true. Allende may have been right.

That's interesting! Even the Navy's version mentions nothing about "deflector plates". THEY allege that the experiments had to do with degaussing coils making ships invisible to magnetic mines. See: http://www.history.navy.mil/faqs/faq21-2.htm "ONR has never conducted any investigations on invisibility, either in 1943 or at any other time (ONR was established in 1946.)

Hi Colin, Henry Cavendish, in his original work, found something similar. Jack Smith From: Cavendish, Henry. "Experiments to determine the Density of the Earth", Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society of London, Vol. 88, 1798, p.249-284. p. 263 "The next thing which suggested Itself to me was, that possibly the effect might be owing to a difference of temperature between the weights and the case; for it is evident, that if the weights were much warmer than the case, they would warm that side which was next to them, and produce a current of air, which would make the balls approach nearer to the weights. Though I thought it not likely that there should be sufficient difference, between the heat of the weight and case, to have any sensible effect, and though it seemed improbable that in all the foregoing experiments, the weights should happen to be warmer than the case, I resolved to examine into it, and for this purpose removed the apparatus used in the last experiments, and supported the weights by the copper rods, as before; and, having placed them in the midway position, I put a lamp under each, and placed a thermometer with its ball close to the outside of the case, near that part which one of the weights approached to in its positive position, and in such manner that I could distingush the divisions by the telescope. Having done this, I shut the door, and some time after moved the weights to the positive position. At first, the arm was drawn aside only in its usual manner; but, in half an hour, the effect was so much increased, that the arm was drawn 14 divisons aside, instead of about three as it would otherwise have been, and the thermometer raised near 1 1/2 degrees; namely, from 61 degrees to 62 1/2 degrees. On opening the door, the weights were found to be no more heated, than just to prevent their feeling cool to my fingers p. 264 As the effect of a difference of temperature appeared to be so great, I bored a small hole in one of the weights, about three-quarters of an inch deep, and inserted the ball of a small thermometer, and then covered up the opening with cement. Another small thermometer was placed with its ball close to the case, and as near to that part to which the weight was approached as could be done with safety; the thermometers being so placed, that when the weights were in the negative position, both could be seen though one of the telescopes, by means of light reflected concave mirror. [Experiment VI, data table not included here] [Experiment VII, data table not included here] [Experiment VIII, data table not included here] p. 266 In these three experiments, the effect of the weight appeared to increase from two to five tenths of a divison, on standing an hour; and the thermometers shewed, that the weight were three or five tenths of a degree warmer than the air close to the case. In the two last experiments, I put a lamp into the room, over night, in hopes of making the air warmer than the weights, but without effect, as the weights exceeded that of the air more in these two experiments than in the former. On the evening of October 17, the weights being placed in the midway position, lamps were put under them, in order to warm them; the doors was then shut,and the lamps suffered to burn out. The next morning it was found, on moving the weights to the negative position, that they were 7 1/2 degrees warmer than the air near the case. After they continued an hour in that position, they were found to have cooled 1 1/2 degrees so as to be only 6 degrees warmer than the air. They were then moved to the positive position; and in both positions the arm was drawn aside about four divisions more, after the weights had remained an hour in that position than it was at first. May 22, 1798. The experiment was repeated in the same manner, except that the lamps were made so as to burn only a short time, and only two hours were suffered to elapse before the weights were moved. The weights were now found to be scarcely 2 degrees warmer than the case; and the arm was drawn aside about two divisions more, after the weights had remained an hour in the position they were moved to than it was at first. On May 23, the experiment was tried in the in the same manner, except that the weights were cooled by laying ice on them; the ice being confined in its place by tin plates, which, on moveing the weights, fell to the ground, so as not to be in the way. On moving the weights to the negative position, they were found to be about 8 degrees colder than the air, and their effect on the arm seemed now to diminish on standing, instead of increasing, as it did before: as the arm was drawn aside about 2 1/2 divisons less, at the end of an hour after the motion of the weights, than it was at first. It seems suffiently proved,therefor, that the effect in question is produced, as above explained, by the difference of temperature beteen the weights and case; for, in the 6th, 8th, 9th experiments in which the weights were not much warmer than the case, their effect increased but little on standing; whereas, it increased much, when they were much were much warmer than the case, and decreased much when they were much cooler. p. 267 It must be observed, that in this apparatus, the box in which the the balls play is pretty deep, and the balls hang near the bottom of it which makes the effect of the current of the air more sensible than it would otherwise be, and is a defect which I intend to rectify in some future experiments. [Experiment IX, data table not included here] p. 283 >From this table it appears, that though the experiments agree pretty well together, yet the difference between them, both in the quantity of motion of the arm and in the time of vibration, IS GREATER THAN CAN PROCEED MERELY FROM THE ERROR OBSERVATION. As to the difference in the motion of the arm, it may very well be accounted for, from the current of produced by the difference of temperature; but, whether this can account for the difference in the time of vibration, is doubtful. If the current of air was regular, and of the same swiftness in all parts of the vibration of the ball, I think it could not; but as there will most likely be much irregularity in the current, it may very likely be sufficient to account for the difference. p. 284 By a mean of experiments made with the wire first used, the density of the earth comes out 5.48 times greater than that of water; and by a mean of those made with the latter wire, it comes out the same; and the extreme difference of the result of the 23 observations made with this wire, is only .75; so that the extreme results do not differ from the mean by more than .38, or 1/14 of the whole, and therfore the density should seem to be determined hereby, to great exactness. It, indeed, may be objected, that as the result appears to be influnenced by the current of air, OR SOME OTHER CAUSE, THE LAWS OF WHICH WE ARE NOT WELL ACQUAINTED WITH, this cause may perhaps act always, or commonly, in the same direction and thereby make a considerble error in the result ...."

I know at least one person on the list is interested in this because of ongoing experiments and has asked for details, so I'll add a few more comments here. The weird thing was the way the shape of the glow seemed to ignore the big array of metal poles and wires of the glider. When we consider electrical discharges, we tend to think about the overriding importance of the location and shape of conducting materials which would seem to be centrally involved. One aspect of the situation might help explain the discharge shape and another phenomena, and that's salt water. When surf breaks, it injects mist into the air flow. Anyone near the shore with glasses or a windshield or similar quickly finds out what happens with this mist. It partially evaporates and turns into durable little slush particles consisting of water, organic matter, and salt (& other chemical) crystals. The human body is also a similar dielectric bag of mostly salt water and organic matter. If it was my body that served as the main discharge electrode instead of the metal glider frame as would more likely be assumed, then that could at least partially explain the shape of the glow. The other phenomena, the slightly sparkly texture of the light, might have been due to more intense activity near the surface of the tiny salt-slush particles I was passing through. Note that these particles are not terribly small because the salt and protein scum prevents the droplets from evaporating all the way. You can see individual particles up close with the naked eye, especially when they land on glass. So that could be something for those experimenting in this area to try - salt water or other dielectric materials either sheathing metal electrodes or simply placed nearby, and maybe a concentrated salt mist blown into the vicinity of various electrode/dielectric arrays. Don't forget to cover all your tools & equipment! Even if the above is meaningful, I'm still left wondering: why would electricity, presumably 60hz AC, appear to *ignore* conductive metal as a pathway, preferring instead to interact with dielectric objects? I will also add that in years of flying and just being in this area generally, I have never seen any similar glows around the power lines or any other feature near them, nor has anyone I know ever mentioned any similar phenomena with either the wires or gliders. - Rick Monteverde Honolulu, HI > Good.

[Abbreviated "RO." The most energy efficient method. Takes 5,800 to 12,000 kilowatt hours of electricity per acre-foot (kWh/AF). Original equipment cost and equipment maintenance expenses are higher.] Pressure is applied to the intake water, forcing the water molecules through a semipermeable membrane. The salt molecules do not pass through the membrane, and the water that passes through becomes potable product water. * Distillation. [Less energy efficient. Takes 3400 to 7000 kWh electricity plus 270 million Btu (26,000 kWh) heat, usually from fossil fuel. My guess is that the U.S. Navy at San Nicolas Island uses heat from electricity, or possibly from burning furniture or U.S. currency.] The intake water is heated to produce steam. The steam is then condensed to produce product water with low salt concentration. Ranges in Plant Capacity (Other than offshore oil and gas platforms) * 20 - 112,000 AF/yr. Costs * Most seawater desalination plants in California would produce water in the range of $1,000 to $2,200 per acre-foot (1992 cost basis). [Costs depends on the technology and plant capacity. "For example, the cost of desalted water in Santa Barbara ($1900/AF) results from the following: a write-off of the capital cost over a short five-year., high financing costs, and high energy costs." Overall cost are roughly the same for different technologies; distillation equipment is cheaper than reverse osmosis (RO) but it takes more energy. Costs in California for desalination water range from $1000 to $4000 per AF, except for the U.S. Navy which pays $6000. In comparison, water from the Colorado River costs $27 per AF. The cost of fresh water from rivers and lakes is mainly due to pumping, pipes, and dams. New groundwater wells in mountains cost 600 to $700/AF, expanding a reservoir (new) cost $950, and temporary emergency water deliveries from other districts costs $2300.] Energy Use: 2,500 [RO] to 29,500 kilowatt hours [distillation] per acre-foot (kWh/AF). Recovery (Percent of product water per unit input flow): For every 100 gallons of seawater input, 15 to 50 gallons of fresh water would be produced (a "recovery" of 15 to 50%). The remainder is waste brine solution containing dissolved solids. Water Quality: 1.0 to 500 ppm tds [total dissolved solids] Feedwater Source: Desalination plants can use either a pipeline into the ocean or wells on the beach or seafloor for intake of seawater. [Brackish water from wells is much cheaper to process.] Plant Size Area: Varies according to plant design. Proposed or existing desalination plants in California range from 80 square feet for a 16 AF/yr plant to 7.5 acres for a 5,000 AF/yr plant. [31 Height: 15 to 20 feet for typical reverse osmosis equipment. 30 to 45 feet for typical distillation equipment. Notes 1. One acre-foot (AF) equals approximately 326,000 gallons; this is equivalent to the amount of water that two to three households would consume in one year. Units of capacity are acre-feet per year (AF/yr), gallons per day (gpd) or million gallons per day (MGD). In most cases, conversions can not be made directly from gpd or MGD to AF/yr since most plants will not operate every day of the year. 2. The California secondary drinking water standard for maximum total dissolved solids (tds) concentration is 500 milligrams per liter (mg/L), which is equivalent to 500 parts per million (ppm). In contrast, the tds concentration in "typical seawater" is 34,420 mg/L (Source: CI{2M Hill, "Preliminary Feasibility Study Report of Seawater Desalination Options for Goleta Water District," September 1989.) 3. For example, the City of Santa Barbara s plant is designed to accommodate a capacity of up to 10,000 AF/yr on 2.1 acres of land, including both the main pump station and the chemical treatment area. [Possible impact of cold fusion or other exotic energy technology: Dramatically lower energy costs would make distillation technology much cheaper than the alternatives. Separating elements from brine could add a new revenue stream to the operation of desalination plants. In existing plants, the brine is dumped back in the ocean. Each liter of unconcentrated seawater contains 34 grams of dissolved or suspended solids; this would be increased 15 to 50%, as described above. The solids are mostly salt (80%) which has little economic value, but they also include magnesium (12%), aluminum, antimony, bismuth, and many other elements, although little iron. Cheap or zero-cost energy would make separating elements from brine more cost-effective. On the other hand, it would also make separating elements from trash streams, landfills, and raw ore more cost-effective. The most valuable product from desalination will continue to be fresh water. Heat exchangers and cogeneration improve distillation efficiency. RO takes electricity, and not much thermal energy. Desalinated fresh water has to be mixed with water from natural sources for human consumption, because it is too pure: "Distillation plants produce a high-quality product water that ranges from 1.0 to 50 ppm tds, while RO plants produce a product water that ranges from 10 to 500 ppm tds. (The recommended California drinking water standard for maximum tds is 500 mg/L, which is equivalent to 500 ppm.) In desalination plants that produce water for domestic use, post-treatment processes are often employed to ensure that product water meets the health standards for drinking water as well as recommended aesthetic and anti-corrosive standards. Desalination product water may be used in its pure form (e.g., for make-up water in power plant boilers) or it may be mixed with less pure water and used for drinking water, irrigation, or other uses. The desalinated product water is usually more pure than drinking water standards, so when product water is intended for municipal use, it may be mixed with water that contains higher levels of total dissolved solids. Pure desalination water is highly acidic and is thus corrosive to pipes, so it has to be mixed with other sources of water that are piped onsite or else adjusted for pH, hardness, and alkalinity before being piped offsite."

Thank You, Regards, Norm Biss Erie, Pa. 10-13-99 -------- Original Message -------- Subject: [free_energy] Joe Newman's motor explained Date: Wed, 13 Oct 1999 06:18:23 -0400 (EDT) From: Wolfgang Metzler To: free_energy onelist.com From: Wolfgang Metzler Subject: Joe Newman's motor explained My name is Wolfgang Metzler, and I am new to this list. I hope no one is offended by the subject matter. The following information explains why no motor can ever reach over unity. There are several motors being demonstrated by their inventors whereby the inventors are claiming more output than input. These inventors do not have the full information required to properly test their inventions. Because electricity and magnetism are complicated subjects which on the surface appear to be simple, most people are easily convinced when presented with partial data concerning these subjects. I will endeavor to enlighten you. Since these motors use permanent magnets, I will limit my explanation to the PM motor, although there are four types of DC motors, and they basically all function identically. These four types are the PM motor, the Series motor, the Shunt motor, and the Compound motor. The simplest DC motor has a wound armature and permanent magnet fields. Two permanent magnets are mounted in an iron shell so that one is north and one is south with respect to the armature. The magnetic lines of force go from the north pole through the armature to the south pole and then return to the north pole through the iron shell. This shell is referred to as back-iron. The armature is the electromagnet. The coils of the armature are all soldered to segments of the commutator. These segments, or bars, act as a sliding switch, switching the current from the line to certain windings of the armature. The brushes, which are the other side of the sliding switch, carry the current from the line to the commutator segments. I am using the term "line" to refer to the input to the motor because it is more economically feasible to use a variac as opposed to batteries, although the function will be identical. The brushes are stationary and positioned so that they will energize the coils of the armature in such a way that they create poles. But as the armature turns, the position of these poles in relation to the brushes does not change.The brushes are positioned so that the armature poles will repel the stationary field poles producing torque and rotation. To fully understand what happens as the speed of the armature increases, it is necessary to understand how voltage is generated in a DC Generator. A DC Generator and a DC Motor are identical in structure and are interchangeable. Any DC Motor can be used as a Generator, and any DC Generator can be used as a motor with only a minor change in the connections. The following are factors that pertain to both. When a conductor (wires of the armature) cuts the lines of force (magnetic field of the stator), a voltage is generated in that conductor (wires of the armature). There are three factors which govern the amount of voltage generated: 1. The number of lines of force being cut. 2. The speed at which the conductors are cutting the lines of force. 3. The number of conductors cutting the lines of force. When voltage is generated in an armature, the current flows in the opposite direction through the armature, as it would if the unit were being used as a motor. When a DC Generator is added to a DC power line, the output voltage of the Generator must be equal to the line voltage. If the Generator cannot produce enough voltage, it will become a motor and use power instead of generating it, and the current will reverse in the armature. Likewise, if a motor is pulled faster than its adjusted speed, it will generate power. When this happens, the current in the armature will reverse and put power back on the line. This is why Joe Newman's motor charges his batteries. But then, any DC Motor will do the same under these conditions. COUNTER ELECTROMOTIVE FORCE As soon as there is rotation of the armature in a motor, the lines of force from the fields are cut by the windings of the armature, generating a voltage. This voltage is the opposite polarity of line (or applied) voltage. [The current flows in the opposite direction in the armature of a Generator]. The result of this is that the voltage generated is subtracted from the applied, or line, voltage. This voltage is called "Counter" or "Back Electromotive Force" (Back EMF). One volt of back emf cancels the effect of one volt of line, or applied voltage. As the armature turns faster, more back emf, or counter emf is generated. As more voltage or back emf is generated, the applied voltage becomes less effective. The applied voltage at the brushes does not change as the armature accelerates.Back emf occurs within the turns of the armature winding. Each turn of the armature generates a portion of the totalback emf. The turns near the center of the pole generate more than do those at the outer edges. The turns are in series with one another, and because of this, the voltage generated in each turn adds to the next in its ability to counter the applied voltage. In other words, it is cumulative. Counter emf can be compared to an automobile battery being charged. When the battery is low, the charging amps are high. This is because of the large difference between the charging voltage and the low battery voltage. As the battery becomes charged, the battery voltage goes up, becoming closer to that of the charger. When this happens, the current flow goes down. If the battery voltage equals that of the charger, no current will flow. As back emf builds within the turns of the armature, less current will flow. Less current will produce less magnetism and less torque. The armature will reach a speed at which the generated back emf and the load will not let it go any faster. If the load is decreased, the motor will speed-up slightly. This increase in speed will generate more back emf. The increase in back emf will reduce the effect of the applied voltage, and the current will be reduced. The speed will again stabilize. There is very little difference between full-load rpms and no-load rpms. THE VOLTAGE GENERATED AS BACK EMF IS ALWAYS LESS THAN THE APPLIED VOLTAGE! Without back emf, the current would be excessive in the armature circuit, and it would burn out. The speed of the permanent-magnet motor can now be explained. As the speed of the permanent-magnet motor increases, the lines of force from the permanent magnets are cut. This generates back emf in the armature. The top speed will be determined by the load, the back emf, and the applied voltage. The speed of this type of motor is controlled by decreasing the applied voltage to the armature. The speed range can be full-voltage, full-load speed, and below. The speed and the torque will vary with the voltage, and the amperage will be reduced with the speed. This has nothing what-so-ever to do with E=MC*2, gyroscopic particles or massergies. These terms employed by the inventor are an attempt to explain what is happening within his motor, and they have a way of impressing the lay public. Joe Newman's motor turns at such slow speeds, that it can never power an auxiliary Generator. The speed of the Newman Motor is, at best, a few hundred RPMs, while a Generator requires 3600 RPM to operate. It is all well and good to take the figures at his low RPM, and project them to what would be required of the motor at 3600 RPM, however, the motor can never attain those speeds. In addition, eventually the magnets will weaken. When that happens, there will be fewer lines of force for the armature to cut (Voltage rule #1). With fewer lines of force to cut, the armature will not generate as much back-emf at its loaded or designed rpms. The armature will speed up to generate the required back emf to stabilize the speed. If the load increases with the increase in speed, the amperes of the armature circuit will also increase. At this point, both the speed and the amperes are excessive, and so the armature will burn out. Joe Newman claims that he sets his brushes outside the neutral zone in order to generate more back emf. For the record, there is only so much back emf generated. The movement of the brushes to a position outside the neutral zone DOES NOT generate any additional back emf. All this does is cause instant air ionization when the heel of the brush leaves the commutator bar. It also causes glazing of the commutator, rapid erosion of the brushes and pitting on the commutator bars. Because most people do not fully understand exactly what is meant by the term "Commutation", I will try to explain in lay terms what is involved. When you fully understand commutation, you will fully understand why and how Joe Newman's Energy Machine works. It is questionable whether Joe Newman fully understands it, himself. I am further baffled by the fact that no else has came forward to explain Joe Newman's Motor. COMMUTATION The voltages generated in all conductors under a north pole of a DC Generator are in the SAME direction, and those generated in the conductors under a south pole are all in the OPPOSITE direction. Currents will flow in the SAME direction as induced voltages in GENERATORS, and in the OPPOSITE direction in motors. Therefore, as a conductor of the armature passes under a brush, its current must REVERSE from a given value in one direction to the SAME VALUE IN THE OPPOSITE DIRECTION. This is called "Commutation". If commutation is perfect, the change in current in a coil will be linear. Unfortunately, the conductors lie in steel slots, and self-and-mutual inductances cause voltages in the coils short-circuited by the brushes. These result in circulating currents that tend to prevent the initial currentchange, delaying the reversal. Because the current must be reversed by the time the coil (actually the commutator bar connected to the coil) leaves the brush, the current remaining to be reversed must discharge its energy in an electric arc from the commutator bar to the heel of the brush. The most important factor is the voltage drop at the sliding contact between the brush face and the copper commutator surface. During normal commutation, the brushes are set in the neutral zone, and the reversal of current takes place when the current is at its minimum. However, If you move the brushes outside the neutral zone, this reversal takes place when there is more current. This is why Joe Newman gets his POW-POW-POW effect which he attributes to his motor being unique. This also is very destructive to the brushes, commutator and windings in the armature. This also produces RF which is undesirable. The fact that the RF from Joe Newman's motor lights free-standing fluourescent bulbs is not new. I have seen janitors carrying these same type bulbs across the hangar floor, and seeing them light up when an aircraft was testing its radar system. Hopefully I have been some help in explaining Joe Newman's motor theory. Feel free to share this with anybody and everybody.

QM is a theory. It is not a hypothesis. A theory has been well tested by a large number of experiments and, therefore, has become accepted as the best available unification of all those results. A hypothesis has not yet been well tested or maybe not yet tested at all. Quantum jumps between two states apply in systems that have such states. It is not a mathematical exercise. It is the way the universe seems to operate. The mathematics lets us make _quantitative_ predictions instead of handwaving ones. ===== Michael J.

This is an interesting experiment. Does Springer say what effect changing the wire separation has on the amount of radiation passed? I am curious as to whether the parallel wires actually fully polarized the transmission (vs rotating polarization of individual photons, i.e. acting as a birefringent, like cellophane.) I take it two filters at 90 deg. mutual angle cancelled all the transmission, and other angles attenuated by cos^2 theta? Let's assume your absorbtion and retransmission hypothesis accounts for photon realignment. This still does not account for the random selectivity of the absorbtion and retransmission based on photon angle which maintains a perfect (in the limit) photon selection ratio proportional to cos^2 theta. The atoms of the filter absorb and retransmit entire photons, of a single energy and wavelength. The filter atoms can not absorb a vector component of a photon, and pass the other vector component, therefore classical mechanics has no basis for maintaining the cos^2 intensity attenuation for individual one at a time photon transactions. One problem with Spring's approach is that it is difficult to get the power levels down far enough, that is to say detection sensitivity high enough, to see individual photons. Even if microwaves up at 3x10^11 Hz are used, about 1 mm wavelength, the photon energy E= h*nu is only about 2x10^-44 J. A 1 watt beam carries about 5x10^43 photons per second, so would have to be attenuated by a factor of about 10^43 to get clear individual photon counts. I don't know if there is a device that can distinguish this kind of photon from background. Some kind of cryrogenic detector like those used in radio astronomy?

I've never seen anything else like it though. But some UFO reports, especially the glowing lights sometimes seen on hillsides and tops (I think there's been a rash of these sightings in Washington state recently) might be accounted for by something like this. But what would the "power source" be when these things are out in the boonies away from power lines? Maybe geological or some sort of atmospheric buildup like the kind that happens on some mountains. Like clear sky lightning, that sort of thing. Whatever it is, it's apparently very rare. - Rick Monteverde Honolulu, HI From vortex-l-request eskimo.com Thu Oct 14 04:09:02 1999 Received: (from smartlst localhost) by mx1.eskimo.com (8.9.1a/8.8.8) id EAA24637; Thu, 14 Oct 1999 04:02:07 -0700 Resent-Date: Thu, 14 Oct 1999 04:02:07 -0700 Message-ID: <001c01bf163b$9be32760$27441d26 fjsparber> From: "Frederick Sparber" To: Subject: Re: OU Coffee Cup Heater?: Motor Oil Bubble Chamber?

Since the permeability, for example, of iron is greater than that of air, the lines of flux emanating from the poles of an ordinary bar magnet will instantly snap themselves into place within a pathway made of iron, if one is moved into place connecting the north pole of the bar magnet to the south pole. Once flux loops have hidden themselves within solid material, measuring their density becomes problematical. This means is that the lines of flux that form closed loops which are contained entirely within the material of a polarizing lens are not detectible by ordinary means. For example, you cannot use a search coil, because this method of measurement requires that the probe be positioned so that it cuts the loops of flux, and is perpendicular to them. You obviously cannot do that to measure the flux density within closed loops in a polarizing lens, because (a) you would have to destroy the lens to force the probe into the material, (b) even if you were willing to do that, you wouldn't know where to place the probe to cut the loops, and (c) the loops are probably microscopic, and so even if you knew where they were, you would need a microscopic probe to measure them. What this means is that "a filter with no detectible magnetic field," as measured by a search coil positioned in the space outside the filter, may have flux loops of enormous density within the material of the filter itself. That state of affairs, obviously, would not be detected by a search coil positioned outside the material. Bottom line: the fact that a polarizing lens has no detectible external magnetic field tells us *nothing whatsoever* about the flux densities in closed loops that are contained entirely within the material, and hence implies nothing about whether those densities are large enough to alter the magnetic orientations (i.e., the polarizations) of photons that are passing through the material. --Mitchell Jones}*** [snip] >Regards, > >Horace Heffner ----------------------------------------------------------------------- The Jed Rothwell equation: "to disagree" = "to be insane."

Since I've been attacking Dennis Lee, when my friend offered me a ride to his meeting on Friday night, I went. What follows is a general discussion of both his theories and some other questions that I've been thinking about. ` Dennis derided electric motor manufacturers for producing motors which are overpowered for the load they move. While I know about this, I also realize that the motor has to function over a range of voltages and in most cases is a standard model which can be used for a range of applications. He then put a voltage clipper in the circuit and demonstrated the reduction in the motor's power usage, he neglected to mention that NASA developed the voltage clipper however. I also know that electrical motor engineering is a well understood area and that while fractional horse power motors are only about 75-80% efficient, that inefficiency drops off rapidly with multi horse power motors, until it reaches 98% efficiency at about 100 HP. Later in the talk he detailed what he calls the fourth law of motion. The force in question is generated by the reaction of the motor against the load. Instead of mounting a motor on a rigid support, suppose that the case of the motor was free to turn. Now the motor's power supply would have to be feed though slip rings, but that is no problem, silo unloader manufacturers have been building something like that for years. The case of the motor is attached to a gear, This gear meshes with a second gear which rotates in the opposite direction. The shaft attached to this second gear runs parallel to and rotates in the same direction, as the output shaft of the motor. The two shafts are coupled together with a belt. Dennis has assembled such a motor and drive. It can be run in two configurations: the gear attached to the motor's case could be secured preventing it's rotation, or it could be allowed to rotate and drive the belt which couples it to the output shaft. Dennis had a volt meter and an amp meter attached to the base of the motor and drive. With the case gear secured to the support, the output shaft turned as a certain speed with a torque of 6 inch pounds. He noted the power consumption in watts. When the case gear was allowed to turn the output shaft's speed of rotation doubled, and the torque remained the same, as did the power consumption. Dennis asserts that this means that the power output of the motor has doubled. While he was demonstrating this phenomena, he mentioned that the leather belt which couples the shaft coming from the case gear to the output shaft was slipping due to it's being worn smooth from repeated use. I think that he needs some belt dressing. Dennis then demonstrated a permanent magnet motor. He didn't claim to have manufactured this motor, so I assume that it is off the shelf. This motor is coupled to a dynamometer. The dynamometer is a pump, the input and output hoses go to to a five gallon pail of water. The motor is DC and is powered by a battery bank. The DC amps are measured by the shunt method. In addition there is an AC component in the form of pulses which are returned from the motor to the battery bank. These pulses are measured by a clamp on amp meter and are shown on an oscilloscope. Dennis ran the motor and announced that the dynamometer was indicating a power production of 3 HP. In order to produce 3 HP, a conventional AC motor would consume about 2400 watts. Based on his instrumentation, Dennis asserted that the permanent magnetic motor was doing this job while consuming just 200 watts. I find this demonstration difficult to believe. If it were possible to generate 3 HP with 200 watts, why not use it to turn a 2 KW generator and build an over unity machine? I think that this approach to building a F E machine has been tried and shown not to work. It would seem to me that if you could just double the power output of a high efficiency electric motor and turn a generator, the system would go over unity. There has to be something wrong with that motor and drive demonstration, it would be like lifting yourself up by pulling on your bootstraps. On Monday I called my physics tutor, Frank Meyer. I started by explaining about the third law of motion. In the mid nineties I met Robert Cook, inventor of the Cook Inertial Propulsion (CIP) system. In an earlier conversation with Howard Hickman, who used to teach chemical engineering at the U of MN, Howard told me that an inertial drive would upset his paradigm of how the world works much more than a F E machine. Otto Schmitt told me that a working inertial drive or "unidirectional momentum generator" would be "significant." Frank conceded that an inertial drive would violate the third law of motion. Frank wanted to know how I was sure that the CIP was working. I told him that Hal Puthoff had suggested that Cook support his drive on a rope or cable and hang it from the ceiling of a gymnasium. If the drive moved away from the vertical position when it was energized, that is a good indication that it was producing a unidirectional force. Frank agreed with this. Norm Baker, Cook's financial backer, told me than they had they had done that and it moved off of vertical. This raises some interesting questions: does this mean that the third law of motion is now a general rule? is this development as profound a blow to the Newtonian system as Mr. Cook and Dr. Hickman seem to think that it is? would this also disprove the Relativistic universe, as Mr. Cook believes it does? Following my description of Dennis' motor and drive, Frank said that if it is doing what he says it is, it is "important." Dennis Lee in on his way out to the northwest this week. He will then head south into California and Nevada, from there he will head east into Texas then he will continue into Georgia, then he will go north through Virginia and return to Pennsylvania.

Since you are soliciting opinions about QM, here is my take on the subject, as extracted from one of my posts to another group. Have fun! ******************************************* The mathematical framework of physics consists of mathematical constructs that have been deliberately fitted to experimentally determined data points. "Quantum mechanics" is an attempt to interpret those curve fitted mathematical constructs in accordance with the notion of discontinuous motion. Thus when experimentally measured data points fail to show certain states--e.g., electrons in "non-preferred" orbits, or particles having "in-between" spin--the proponent of quantum mechanics concludes that the transition from one state to another takes place without passage through the intervening states. By this way of thinking, an electron does not get from one "preferred" orbit to another by passing through the in-between orbits, but rather by simply vanishing from its position in one orbit and reappearing in another one. And, similarly, a particle does not go from "spin up" to "spin down" by gradually changing its spin axis, in the manner of a top, a gyroscope, a "curve ball," or some other macroscopic object, but rather simply vanishes from its first spin state and reappears with the opposite one. Motion in the microcosm, by this view, is discontinuous. The alternative view of the microcosm, which I call *continuum mechanics* (and which is in keeping with the classical approach to physics), is that the dearth of measured data points indicating transitional states does not mean those states do not exist, but merely means they are too brief to be measured with contemporary instruments. Importantly, note that when a proponent of "quantum mechanics" denies such an interpretation, he cannot do so on scientific grounds. The reason: such a denial constitutes a statement about matters that have not been measured. Result: such a denial, at root, is a statement about metaphysics, and thus must be evaluated on philosophical grounds. Further, since the claim that the transitional states do not exist is equivalent to the claim that entities can leap into existence out of nothing and vanish into nothing, it follows that we can evaluate "quantum mechanics" by analyzing the consequences of that claim. Unfortunately for the proponents of "quantum mechanics," the principle that *no thing may come into existence out of nothing or vanish into nothing*--which I will hereafter refer to as *the principle of continuity*--is part of the foundation upon which the entire structure of human knowledge rests. If we assume that the principle of continuity is invalid, or even that it *may* be invalid, then we lose all basis for believing in the the existence of anything, including our minds, our bodies, the external world, science, and, yes, even "quantum mechanics." Such a state of affairs becomes immediately apparent when we ask ourselves how we know that our sensations have sources. For example, how do you know that, when you see a dog, those sensations are coming from an entity in the external world? After all, if it is possible that sensations may leap into existence out of nothing, then the dog, or the painting of a dog, or whatever you thought you were looking at, may not exist at all. Result: since we know of the existence of the external world by means of sensations that we presume are coming from that world, it follows immediately that without the premise that *no thing may come into existence out of nothing or vanish into nothing*, we lose all basis for believing in the existence of the external world. And, similarly, we lose all basis for believing that our bodies exist. After all, we think we have arms, legs, lips, teeth, etc., only because of sensations which we receive from those structures; and, obviously, if those sensations are leaping into existence out of nothing, then the structures in question do not exist. Likewise, we believe in the existence of our own minds for similar reasons: we receive certain sensations which we label as "memories" on the assumption that they come from a storage area located somewhere in the "mind"; we receive sensations from images which we presume to come from a "faculty of imagination," also located in the "mind." Etc. But, if those sensations are merely leaping into existence out of nothing, then the presumed storage areas, faculties, etc., clearly do not exist. Result: we thereby lose all basis for believing in the existence of the "mind," and, thus, of the self. Thus, by the continued application of the quantum mechanical premise that things can come into existence out of nothing and vanish into nothing, we are forced to conclude that the entire structure of our knowledge rests on the denial of that premise--which means: if "quantum mechanics" is presumed to be true, then the entire structure of our knowledge, including "quantum mechanics," collapses. Bottom line: either we can know nothing whatever, or else "quantum mechanics" is false. ******************************************* So there you have it. :-) --Mitchell Jones}*** ----------------------------------------------------------------------- The Jed Rothwell equation: "to disagree" = "to be insane."

Translated into meaningful terms, this means that if you eat a very cold dessert (generally consisting of water in large part), the natural processes which raise the consumed dessert to body temperature during the digestive cycle literally sucks the calories out of the only available source, your body fat. For example, a dessert served and eaten near 0 degrees C (32.2 deg F) will in a short time be raised to the normal body temperature of 37 degrees C (98.6 deg F). For each gram of dessert eaten, that process takes approximately 37 calories as stated above. The average dessert portion is 6 oz, or 168 grams. Therefore, by operation of thermodynamic law, 6,216 calories (1 cal./gm/deg x 37 deg x 168 gm) are extracted from body fat as the dessert's temperature is normalized. Allowing for the 1,200 latent calories in the dessert, the net calorie loss is approximately 5,000 calories. Obviously, the more cold dessert you eat, the better off you are and the faster you will lose weight, if that is your goal. This process works equally well when drinking very cold beer in frosted glasses. Each ounce of beer contains 16 latent calories, but extracts 1,036 calories (6,216 cal. per 6 oz. portion) in the temperature normalizing process. Thus the net calorie loss per ounce of beer is 1,020 calories. It doesn't take a rocket scientist to calculate that 12,240 calories (12oz. x 1,020 cal./oz.) are extracted from the body in the process of drinking a can of beer. Frozen desserts, e.g., ice cream, are even more beneficial, since it takes 83 cal./gm to melt them (i.e., raise them to 0 deg C) and an additional 37 cal./gm to further raise them to body temperature. The results here are really remarkable, and it beats running hands down. Unfortunately, for those who eat pizza as an excuse to drink pop, pizza (loaded with latent calories and served above body temperature) induces an opposite effect. But,thankfully, as the astute reader should have already reasoned, the obvious solution is to drink a lot of beer with pizza and follow up immediately with large bowls of ice cream. We should all be thin very soon if we adhere religiously to this pizza, beer, and ice cream diet. Happy eating!

Something in your description of the Antineutrino Sea definitely struck a chord in me about Reich's Orgone, and I can't quite put my finger on it.. Wilhelm Reich: 1897-1957. A student of Freud and whose study of the human body had a strong influence on the path of Western psychology. His research eventually led to a study of [so-called] "life energy" within (and eventually outside of) living organisms. He named it Orgone. He did hundreds of experiments and claimed to have discovered it's properties. He was castigated. (understatement.) Other amorphous substances were discovered [postulated] by their effects. One of the substances, [Oranor or Dor?] when concentrated within a specially constructed "accumulator" box, was said to significantly increase the decay rate of some radioactives. He reported this: that they had to evacuate their lab due to significantly increased radioactivity. The accumulator boxes are similar in design to a capacitor. The dielectrics used were organic materials, but not always. The metals.. I think perhaps sheet steel was used. There are dozens-- perhaps 100's of Orgone Sites. Here's one. I have, since first hearing of it here, held a tentative belief that a *fractional charge* is perhaps associated with Reich's bions. Similar to the health enhancing process of breathing negative ions, the slight negative charges on the bions would enhance the blood's ability to absorb oxygen. This is only a tentative mechanism to help me understand and explain the increased health of those who used his devices. What are "bions"? According to Reich-- individual (or clustered) units of something very-very-small that has life enhancing qualities. As far as I know, orgone energy has not been rigorously studied other than by Reich and a very small number of scientists. Some scientists today still continue with their individual experiments. The main problem IMO, is in trying to get a handle on something that can't be seen-- Sort of like neutrinos . There is also an antipathy for the soft sciences.

A thread was tied to one end of the gyro axis and hung from a support above. With the gyro spun up and set over sideways, the thread still stays in vertical alignment, and does not move over to compensate for what you would think is a shift in the center of gravity of the now sideways and off center gyroscopic mass. In fact, the string moves in the *opposite* way - *towards* the gyro's position, as the gyro begins to precess. See attached jpeg. There appears to be a small centrifugal force generated from the precessional rotation that makes the gyro pull out from under vertical - completely! So now I wonder if that's really just centrifugal force, and would disappear if the gyro was prevented from precessing. I think it would, but that's another experiment. But I think that the idea that a gizmo shows reactionless thrust by sitting out from vertical while hanging from a string may need to be revised a little bit, or else the 'centrifugal force' I see really is reactionless. What was it Laithwaite said? "There's something wrong with gyroscopes"? Probably just something wrong with me... - Rick Monteverde Honolulu, HI ------------attachment: drawing of gyro action ------------- --MS_Mac_OE_3022766807_9424861_MIME_Part Content-type:

According to her, Tesla had some theory by means of which such spheres could be generated, and his idea was that they could be used to shield objects--including even cities--from attack. The impression I got from her comments was not that the target hid within the sphere, but that missiles would bounce off of it. In short, it was some sort of Star Trek "shields up" phenomenon. Frankly, I have never heard of such a notion.

I suppose the work is lost forever now. Professor Laithwaite demonstrated his mass-transfer principle on BBC television and he held a U.S. patent on his thruster, so I don't see how it could be lost forever.

The story also gives a sort of OK model of how THIS type of filter works. This filter is called a linear polarizing filter. There are alos polarizing filters for light and polarizing methodolgies for nearly any type of EM that allow the user to produce circular or elliptical polarizations of either handedness and nearly every ellipticity. SO: George wanted to make an inexpensive polarizing filter for nearly any user. He used a sheet of clear polymeric sheet that was thermoplastic, as opposed to thermal setting plastic. More accurately called thermosetting plastic, these compounds become quite tough on application of heat used to "cure". The first type, the thermoplastic becomes soft on heating. Thermosetting = TSP ...gets tough with heat and additional heat does not soften it. Thermoplastic = TOP .... is solid, become softer with heat. We will say this discussion is for work at room temperature, pressure of 1 atmosphere at anout 72 F, or STP, roughly. Quinine and some quinine salts form long needle-like crystals or whiskers. There were placed on a transparent TOP sheet and the plastic has stretched while being warmed. This caused a general alignment of the crystals. Now quinine makes nice needle like clear crystals and its melting point of 177 Cwill let you pull this stretching trick with cellulose hexanitrate... with an MP of 160 to 170 C... but do not try this because melted gun cotton is some twitchy ! with ignition point thereabouts too. So you pull and stretch in one axis until a reasonable number of these little needles are aligned. SO: We now have some nice needles of clear stuff with a different Refractive Index, or RI, than the polymer substrate. And the little needles are all lined up. Now we take ourselves to a place of mystery, for me anyway.... Land then used iodine to make the rows of crystals a little bit electrically conductive. This is a little but like parallel wires but the alignment is distributed a little differently. Now we go to a MODEL of light.... not THE model, but A model. This model has wavy line showing electrical part of the EM light ... and... 90 degrees orthogonal the magnetic wavy line. The magnetic part does NOT give heebe deedle about the little partially electrically conducting "picket fence". And, mostly, the electric part does not care either... EXCEPT the part which is aligned parallel with our pretty much poorly conducting electric "wires" .... the electrical part of the light causes little not-very-regular electric currents to flow and be changed from the "E" of EM to a sort of hap hazard, higgledy piggledy motion of bond angle stretching, general vibration and so on. The net effect of this is light which has its electrical axis perpendicular to the quinine doped with iodine is much more not-absorbed than any other axis. The little fence model of polarizing filter and the pictures of "light waves" we see in texts are usually drawn and marked "bass-ackwards" by 90 degrees. Now the mystery... And this is one I know the answer too .. but I am not telling just yet and would like to see what the readers think.... If we absorbed some of the "E" part of "EM" ... WHAT happened to the "M" !!! ??? A good set of pictures and teaching is the 3 volume set of Richard Feynman's Lectures. Some nice material can be found in Volume 1 Section 33. ... From this section, paraphrasing Feynman: "Polaroid consists of a thin layer of herapathite .. a salt of quinine and iodine all aligned with their axis parallel," Back to the M ...I have a thinking after passing a polarizing method such as this , I have a strong feeling a that after E is shunted out, the magnet part .... which is wiggling PD PDF = pretty Deep Beetle FAST! ... but it will only go a short way before it plays out.

Importantly, note that when a proponent of "quantum mechanics" denies such an interpretation, he cannot do so on scientific grounds. The reason: such a denial constitutes a statement about matters that have not been measured. Jack writes: There is no more point in denying the statement that "the dearth of measured data points indicating transitional states does not mean those states do not exist" than in denying the statement that "no more than 30 angels can stand on the head of a pin at one time."

Incorrect. The available sources of heat includes the entire environment: ambient air, furniture, earth . . . In a temporate climate, when you eat ice cream, your the body grows a little cooler and you radiate a little less heat into the surroundings. The heat deficit between the freezing food temperature and ambient is made up for by heat from the ambient surroundings. To raise the food temperature from ambient to body temperature, your body supplies the energy. When you eat hot foods, you do get extra calories. When you are in a freezing environment, for example stuck in a blizzard, and you eat snow because you are thirsty, it cools your body down. It will, in fact, kill you. You should melt the water externally if at all possible, or try to live with the thirst. Also, a nutricionist's (food) calorie equals a kilocalorie. The first experiments to determine the energy content of foods (including heat and chemical energy) and respiration were conducted in the 1787 by Lavoisier and De Laplace. They used an ice calorimeter with a guinea pig inside. Here is part of their report, from Hemminger and Hohne's "Calorimetry." The outer thermometer being at one and a half degrees, we placed in one of our devices a guinea pig whose inner heat was about 32 degrees, i.e. not much different from that of the human body; to save it from suffering during the experiment we placed it in a small cotton-lined basket whose temperature was zero; the animal remained for five hours and 36 minutes in the apparatus; during this interval we gave it fresh air four or five times by means of bellows; when we took it out we left the basket inside the apparatus, and we waited until it had cooled down; a thorough draining of the apparatus yielded about seven ounces of molten ice. In a second experiment, the outer thermometer being still at one and a half degrees, the same guinea pig remained for ten hours and 36 minutes in the apparatus, and the air was only renewed three times; the device yielded 14 ounces and five drachms of molten ice; the animal did not seem to have suffered in these experiments. They had a refreshing, humanitarian concern for test animals. - Jed From vortex-l-request eskimo.com Fri Oct 15 07:04:51 1999 Received: (from smartlst localhost) by mx1.eskimo.com (8.9.1a/8.8.8) id HAA14932; Fri, 15 Oct 1999 07:00:19 -0700 Resent-Date: Fri, 15 Oct 1999 07:00:19 -0700 Message-Id: <3.0.1.32.19991015094851.01141d20 world.std.com> X-Sender: mica world.std.com X-Mailer: Windows Eudora Pro Version 3.0.1 (32) Date: Fri, 15 Oct 1999 09:48:51 -0400 To: vortex-l eskimo.com From: Mitchell Swartz Subject: Re: What's wrong with this diet In-Reply-To: <3.0.6.32.19991015094307.0079b210 pop.mindspring.com> References: Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Resent-Message-ID: <"gYYKn1.0.9f3.pDp1u" mx1> Resent-From: vortex-l eskimo.com Reply-To: vortex-l eskimo.com X-Mailing-List: archive/latest/31074 X-Loop: vortex-l eskimo.com Precedence: list Resent-Sender: vortex-l-request eskimo.com Status: O X-Status: At 09:43 AM 10/15/99 -0400, Jed Rothwell wrote: >Also, a nutricionist's (food) calorie equals a kilocalorie.

They had patience. Their experiments often lasted YEARS through several winters. Hmmm. I wonder if their measurement of the difference between the heat capacity of venous and arterial blood of mammals was done with "humanitarian concern".

The guillotine is way ahead of other methods of execution. It was invented to replace decapitation by sword, which was a gruesome, hit-or-miss method (literally).

Below is something more positive. http://www.citizen.org/cmep/ An excellent resource for those concerned about taking back the control over how electricity is being produced in this country and abroad. Included are many well written and well documented articles from such activists as Ralph Nadar, that identify the political leadership that is seeking responsible change in this industry, and their corporate foes. Subject matter includes the energy deregulation trend, corporate energy mergers, nuclear safety, nuclear waste, nuclear recycling, and alternatives to coal, hydro, and nuclear power plants. Contrary to the views of some of the participants of this group, nuclear power has proven to be the most costly and deadly mistake the energy industry has ever made, and it is only getting worse, thanks to the enormous amounts of money being pumped into PACs and the media to convince people to think otherwise. Personally, I think that the Cold Fusion research community would do itself a giant favor by trying to align itself with these sorts of organizations rather than try and court the favor of the present power structure which has proven itself to be corrupted beyond all reason. The grass roots support for these environmental groups is quite large, and the number of groups in this country is in the many hundreds, yet after having read through many of the webpages and looking at their literature, I've come to the conclusion that these people are almost 100% unaware of the developments made by the Cold Fusion research community, and the advances made by the nuclear remediation researchers. I don't understand how this can be, other than we have just not made an effort to educate and market these technologies to the right people. Perhaps it's time for Jed and Gene to approach groups such as these, and see what they have to say about it. We're all in the same boat, after all. Knuke Michael T.

He was angry at Laithwaite, feeling that his ideas were essentially propagated by Laithwaite without adequate recognition of their origin. Alex had filed, but did not survive to finalize, a British patent, and much earlier had demonstrated working early models of his gyro propulsion (see, for example, German Patent DE-A2341245 issued in 1975)units to Hawker Sydley, a British Aerospace firm. Magnetic Power represented him in the U.S. and shortly before his death he asked us to take his most recent work to NASA. He had applied for a British Patent, and was about to forward a package of proprietary material just prior to a bad fall in a pub in which he hit his head. He never regained consciousness. His widow wrote to me. All of his papers were claimed by a daughter, and she turned them over to Geoffrey Pardoe at Brunel University in Uxbridge, England. Although the couple had lived together for at least 20 years they never married. Thus, the daughter inherited his property under Guernsey (Channel Island) law. Very sad. He had probably done the best inertial gyro propulsion work on the planet to that point.

To those that have requested the Mills video, I would recommend printing out the papers so that Mills' and other's presentations can be closely followed without squinting at the projected viewgraphs. This would be unavoidable for graphs and data sheets missing at the site. A paper missing is the one presented of the German confirmnation of the ultraviolet emissions. Also missing is the visible demonstration of the polyhydride sample and its flexible, magnetic properties. And of course, the Q&A of the ACS participants.

Thus at the ~1,000 deg K temperature of Mills' experiment using potassium vapor and hydrogen over Potassium Iodide (KI) there was about 10% ionization of the potassium vapor and about 3 % Dissociation of H2, but the the No of H2 molecules was orders of magnitude greater (1,000 to 1500 Torr) than the No of the 0.5 grams of K metal used in the experiment. Then: H2 + K+ <--> (H+) + KH or (H) + (K+) <--> KH+ IOW, the "catalysis" effect of potassium does not require the effect that Mills' Theory stipulates in order to effect formation of the "fractional orbit" Hydrino. This doesn't question the existence of the Hydrino, only the required mechanism for it's formation. Coincidently, the formation of a Neutrino-Antineutrino pair should be optimum at 1,000 deg K (or less) which would facilitate the formation of the "fractional orbit" Hydrino, with a mechanism similar to the role of the neutrino in the neutron, without going up against accepted physics.

Hi Tom, My first objective is to replace large, centralized, subscription fee-based modeled, anti-life power generation schemes with small, inexpensive, life-supporting energy systems. It doesn't matter if the system is wind, geothermal, Cold Fusion, ZPE, plasma, solar or any other type of technology. Ideally, a first-generation unit would cost the equivilent of $200 in today's dollars, and be safe enough to keep under a baby crib. There is no doubt in my mind that this could be achieved in two years or less with the right people and funding. We've done a lot already with just a few inspired nutcases for scientists and practically nothing for funding :) If we can send people into space, wire little kitties' brains to computer monitors, and create particle accelerators, I know we can come up with another power source. To say we can't is a lie. We do the impossible all the time. My second objective is to clean up the existing pollution that has resulted from the last 50 years of industrialization, and power generation so that we have clean air to breathe, clean water to drink, and good soil in which to plant real food for ourselves and the animals. There is no doubt in my mind that we can accomplish this objective as well, and if my first objective is accomplished, the second will probably happen on its own naturally, but it will just take longer. I think that a pro-active course, however, would accelerate that clean-up task, and save many lives. There are a number of nuclear waste remediation techniques that have been PROVEN already. We could start using them tomorrow if it were not for the obstacles that have been put into place by the people that stand to profit enormously from the existence of nuclear waste. The Greens have proven themselves at times to be a very powerful group when the issues and choices are able to be made clear to the general population. They are intelligent, articulate, often politically well connected, larger in number and far better organized at the grass roots level than the Cold Fusion community will ever be. They enjoy a popularity with the majority of people because they have proven that they really care about the welfare of the whole of society, and not a group of elite corporate entities. Instead of excluding people or demanding of them that they conform to a narrow religious, or political mindset, they embrace people of all walks of life, and try to help them have a better life. If it were not for the efforts of the Greens, California would not have passed the emissions control standards that are slowly forcing the automakers to innovate. The members of the Cold Fusion community and the other alternative energy groups share or should share the many of the same core ideals. Yes, I think that we should make efforts to bring the Greens up to speed on the advancements made, and ask them to help us get the R&D funding that we need to make more advances. We need to show them that most of the funding to date for the technologies that our people have developed with peaceful and good intentions is just going to the defense contractors, and current energy providers so that they may be developed into more weapon systems, or scaled up, centralized power generation stations that are used to manipulate the economies and destinies of the people that they propose to serve and protect. If a technology is shown to not be able to be used in a weapon system, or if it can't be used to generate obscene profits, it is simply bought up and buried no matter what its potential value to society. The protocol, mechanism, and doublespeak for this practice has become clear to a large number of people now, and the people responsible for these practices have to be removed from positions of power and authority and replaced. This much, the Greens already know. With the availability of the internet, and the ability for people to share information there has never been a better time for the truth about our present lifestyle to be exposed, and for people to take action to correct what is wrong. It does however take a large group of organized people to make any significant changes, and it means uniting with others for a common purpose. You may not care for the entire the agenda of the Greens, and like any organization, they can't even agree on everything, but one thing that we all CAN agree upon is that we are not getting anywhere very quickly right now, and it is because we have almost no political voice at all. If we want to accomplish the two tasks mentioned above, we have to unite with other groups and start demanding that we get what we want and need for our mutual survival because that is what it is all about.

Here is a little bit of it. Dear Folks, Following is some of the work I did at WPAFB. I will put brief description next to the papers. These are not all the papers or reports or press, just a sort of representation. None of it is classified. I also wrote a few little prose pieces of the history of some work there, if anyone is interested. NOTE: All of this is in the open literature and there are several labs around the world doing similar work, some of it very good. BAC means Brain Actuated Control. I coined the term in 1986. I designed and built a system which takes one aspect of EEG, of brain waves and "decodes" it. The EEG type is the Visually Evoked Steady State Cortical Response, or VER for short. You basically can learn to control the VER, women do better than men. We "decode" the VER and then its magnitude is a control signal. The RATS, is the Roll Axis Tracking Simulator. It is a big steel box which in no way resembles an airplane. Except it it has a pilot's couch and a color CRT monitor in it. The RATS has a big DC 5 hp motor and a computer controls its ability to roll as rapidly as an F-4 jet plane. In its usual use a simulated disturbance of the roll function is programmed into the controlling computer and the pilot attempts to correct it. The Human Engineering branch is dedicated to investigating how the human operates. The BAC, or EEG system can be connected to the RATS and you and then "fly" it with your EEG, no hands.

I did a lot of other work with humans and the signals from them and non invasive sensors to allow people and handicapped people to speak and hear and generally have a better quality of life. I did the EEG work for about 10 years, before and after I worked with materials' sciences and magnetic fields physics. Giovanni Modanese and I founded the Gravity Society. www.gravity.org I generally do a lot of work with medical technology, to help to make this lower cost and physics of gravity, fields and EM work. I have done a body of work in detection of non metallic land mines, forensic science, seismic sensing and enjoy flying kites and singing. And I smile a lot and enjoy teaching, any field, any age. It is impossible for any investigator is any field to describe 25 years of work and get the idea across. I also study the history and ethics of science. Oh yes. Experimental science is fun!

Using the Saha Equation and getting ~0.3% dissociation of H2 at 1,000 deg K as opposed to Mills' use of the Ti Screen "dissociator" says that higher temps are required. However, Potassium vapor in the presence of H2 exothermally forms potassium hydride at 350-450 C: H2 + 2K <---> 2 KH At 1,000-1,500 Torr there was plenty of H2 (about 6.0E22 H2 atoms) available to exothermally form KH from the 0.5 grams of K (about 7.7E21 K atoms) in the Stainless "Bottle". > > Fred...I find it interesting in reading these papers at BLP website that: > (1) He is using K metal > (2) He is running very close to the temperatures I have found to give > the best heat output, 1000K or ~725 C. Yes, the K metal melts at ~336 K and boils at ~ 1032 K, and the potassium iodide (KI) melts at 954 deg K and has a binding energy of only 3.38 ev, which is below the 4.34 ev ionization energy of K or the 4.526 ev dissociation energy of H2. > > The only thing I'm puzzeled about is the pressure....1000 to 1500 torr!!

I still haven't read all the earlier stuff on the website, nor all the material in Mills' January 1999 book, but offhand, I can't recall pressures that high before, can you? 1000-1500 torr is more than three orders of magnitude higher than the pressure mentioned in the EUV paper, which consistently refers to 0.3 torr, and at least once to 300 millitorr, which of course is the same thing. You mentioned possibly getting another power supply. Are you going to try making hydrino hydride compounds using high pressure? And by the way, Mills does say that hydrinos can autocatalyze. In Mills' view, that's where the heat of the solar corona comes from. In the solar corona, I think he sees the process starting with the collision of three H atoms, a collision that will form a hydrino, and then continuing by hydrino autocatalysis. Fred, in your first message about the Saha equation on Oct. 16, you wrote that there was 3% dissociation of the H2 molecules in the KHI setup, but in a message a couple of hours later, you quoted yourself to the effect that there was 0.3% dissociation.

I have a sensitive am reciever embodied in a 70's Pioneer reciever - amplifier that is able to pick up only 2 or three regular am stations from my location out here in the desert near Barstow, CA. Remarkably, one of these is KCBS, a San Fransisco newstalk station about 320 air miles away. I get practically none of the similarly powerful LA stations, which are only maybe 120 air miles away. Instead, when I tune across the dial, I get various versions of a low frequency modulated hum in the range of 60 to 120 cycles. There are a few spots in this band that have higher frequency components, but these higher frequency components are barely distinguishable from noise. There is no variation in the duration and repetition modes of the low frequency modulation components that are audible when the dial is just "parked" on one frequency setting, hence these are continous mode oscillations that do not seem to be transmitting any "new" information, other than the continuing exixtence of their transmission source, what ever _THAT_ is. IOW. tuning in different frequencies and parking the dial results in a different characteristic modulation mode, but this mode does not change at all when you are just listening to one carrier's "signal". If I were to guess, I would say that the AM scene at least in this area, is being deliberately jammed by whatever setup is generating this stuff. As I said this hum is across the entire AM band 550-1600 khz. Now why would anyone bother to JAM commercial band AM radio? ....Art Bell? I can't really say how long this has been going on. When the big Mojave earthquake happened the other night, I decided to turn on the AM since I figured those smnaller stations in my area would have the local scoop. The first news I got about it was on KCBS during a talk show about 5 minutes after the event. Any ideas?

I am not qualified on the theory, but the author, Professor Fran De Aquino, recently joined another list and mentioned that a number of his peers have looked at his paper and agreed with it, but concluded as impossible to building such a device since the calculated optimal frequency of ~10 Hz requires such a long antenna. He also calculates a density of 100Watts/M2 as required but if his theory is correct, I would suspect that some effects might be measurable with lower energy levels. Several years ago, Richard Hull of the Tesla Coil Builders of Richmond(?) designed a generator of Electrostatic Energy using, if memory serves, a slightly modified 3 coil Tesla Magnifier. This was speculated by some as being the type device pulse modulated by Nikola Tesla to Earth-resonant ELF frequencies near the turn of the last century. I believe that the powerful ES pulsing technique delivers longitudinal electrostatic waves, however, and I've asked the author if the type of EM radiation is important. I suspect so.

Same result? If not, bad power supply rectifiers and or filter capacitors. If it's a 70's era radio then the electrolytic filter caps in the power supply are _really_ due for replacement. I too turned on the AM radio the other night at 2:48 AM after being shaken awake by the earthquake and the first station I picked up was a Los Angeles talk radio station. It faded out after about 10 minutes but there was no hum or strange noise when I tuned across the dial.

This would be nice if I can only get a stable arc (glow) going at the pressures he is using. Sure would be easier than worrying about vacuum leaks. Problem is the arc is difficult to maintain even at one atmosphere unless a high frequency, high voltage power supply is used. Then that opens up another can of worms, accurate measurements of input power. If you remember, way back in March of 1998 when I started this experiment I was using a high freq power supply, a TV flyback transformer that I was driving with a US Navy surplus sonar test set. This beast is a variable frequency signal generator, range 100 Hz to 100 kHz, that will drive 400 volts across a 600 ohm load. All vacuum tubes, and it weighs in at about 70 pounds! Go figure how to meter that thing. The tubes develop enough heat to keep the garage nice and warm in the winter! > > You mentioned possibly getting another power supply. Are you going to try > making hydrino hydride compounds using high pressure? No, I want to stay with thermal measurements. Hmmm....I just thought of something....Those plasma discharge balls that Radio Shack sells for about 30 bucks must use a high freq supply. The glass globe is about 5 inches in diameter and the central electrode emits streamers of plasma that make a pretty light show. The thingy uses a 12 volt wall wart power supply so it must have a HV generator built into the base.... Hmmm... > > And by the way, Mills does say that hydrinos can autocatalyze.

Yep, that's what I read. Seems like if you could get just a hydrogen plasma going in a Tokamak style confinement it would autocatalyze, and no nasty radiation either.

I contend however that rather than the asteroid belt being the perihelion, it is the point at which the highly elliptical orbit intersects the ecliptic (i.e. the "crossing points"). This makes more sense of the story of the breakup of Tiamat, in which Nibiru "returns to finish off the planet". Note that the perihelion cannot lie *in* the asteroid belt, but would have to lie above or below it, as the sun lies at the focal point of the ellipse, hence the end of the ellipse can't lie in the ecliptic unless the entire orbit lies in the ecliptic. So the only way that the moons of nibiru could have broken up Tiamat was if the asteroid belt (the remains of Tiamat) lay at the point where the orbit of nibiru intersected the ecliptic. If so, then there should be a gap in the asteroid belt where Nibiru passes through it twice every 3600 years. Such a nice clean gap exists at 2 AU (see http://ssd.jpl.nasa.gov/sb_distrib.html). Based upon these two figures, it is possible to calculate, that the perihelion is in fact at 1 AU, i.e. Earth's orbit! Or at least it would be Earth's orbit, if that of Nibiru were not inclined to the ecliptic. Nevertheless it should be clear that this implies that on those rare occasions when the timing is "just right", Earth and Nibiru can approach quite closely. If Nibiru is as large as suspected, then the gravitational effects on the Earth can be considerable. I suspect that just such a close approach was responsible for the upheaval that gave rise to "the flood". Orbit of Nibiru: Semi-major axis = 234.892 AU, semi-minor axis = 21.675 AU duration of period within the orbit of the asteroid belt = 31.4 weeks.

If it were that, I've never seen a case like it where only the AM section was affected and not the other inputs such as tape and of course the built-in FM. And even in that case I see no reason for diferent kinds of modulations depending on fequency tuned like I described. But..I won't rule it out until I check with another receiver like you suggest, Vince. I repaired this unit a couple of years ago when I bought it for cheap when it had a couple of shorted output xistors.

Whether or not it does, I don't know. My point was that a point *in* the asteroid belt could only be the perihelion, if the orbit lay in the ecliptic. IOW an orbit at an angle to the ecliptic has it's perihelion outside the ecliptic. Sitchin thinks it is at an angle, hence a point in the asteroid belt cannot be the perihelion though a point above or below it could be. However in this case, the existing "hole" in the asteroid belt goes begging for an explanation as it were, and the asteroid belt would also no longer be the point of crossing. > >> Based upon these two figures, it is possible to calculate, that the >> perihelion is in fact at 1 AU, i.e. Earth's orbit!

That doesn't follow from what I wrote. What I am trying to say is that Nibiru comes much closer to the Earth than anyone in modern times has heretofore deemed plausible. I wasn't trying to make an argument either for or against Nibiru lying in the plain of the ecliptic. BTW the closer it lies to the plain, the worse off we are. In a way this would appear to prove that it doesn't, otherwise Earth probably wouldn't still be where it is today. > >It's probably my misunderstanding of what you wrote that makes the apparent >contradiction. Anyway, in the legend the earth IS the major remnant of >Tiamat, if I remember. Is that the relationship you're referring to? In a way yes. I suspect that the 1 AU distance is no coincidence, but rather a result of a causal link, though neither my mechanics nor my maths are good enough to prove it.

Assume the entire orbit of Nibiru lies in the ecliptic, with its perihelion (nearest point to the sun) at the asteroid belt. Draw a line connecting the perihelion to the sun. That line, when extended to the aphelion (farthest point from the sun) will be the long axis of the orbit (the major axis), which will also lie in the ecliptic. But if we now rotate the plane of Nibiru's orbit about its major axis, we find that there exists an infinite number of possible orientations of that plane, which are *not* entirely in the ecliptic. --Mitchell Jones}*** So the only way that the moons of >nibiru could have broken up Tiamat was if the asteroid belt (the remains >of Tiamat) lay at the point where the orbit of nibiru intersected the >ecliptic. > >If so, then there should be a gap in the asteroid belt where Nibiru >passes through it twice every 3600 years.

Since this seems to be too much of a coincidence one may suspect that the data indicate the existenc e of new physics rather than a prosaic explanation based on standard theory. This has beenduly noted by others [9]. But to be acceptable, any non-standard explanation should follow naturally from a general theoretical framework.

I remember seeing a photocopy of some Gernsback publication of the late 20's or early 30's with Tesla's image on the cover, with the earth in the background spewing fiery debris from a huge fissure girdling the entire globe. I sometimes wonder if Tesla were not the model for the Frankenstein Scientist character of the movie of this period, what with the Jacob's ladders and kites launched into electrical storms et al. Anyway this claim is substantiated, by accounts of Tesla's experiment with a "small mechanical compressed air driven vibrator" which he attached to a pillar of his NYC apartment building. This account is in Margaret Cheney's book. The story goes that Tesla activated this device then went back up to his apartment for some light reading. When after a short while, a small earthquake attracted the attention of the police toward Tesla's apartment bldg, they broke in to find Tesla smashing his device with a sledgehammer. Last night Vince Cockeram, who lives in nearby Las Vegas (150 mi) responded to my post about a wide band hum from my AM radio that I picked up immediately after the Mojave earthquake a few nights ago. He suggested that I check my filter caps in the power supply. After I sent my rejoinder to that off to Vortex-l I turned off the computer and switched the AM reciever on to see if the hum was still there. It had vanished. This hum was not like the ordinary monotonic buzz you hear when you have poor filtering of your rectifier outputs, however. There were definite modulations in the 60 hz tone ranging from about .3 cps to maybe .05 cps, which whould change in character as you scanned across the dial. They were not information carrying transmissions, either, because once you parked the dial the same characteristic modulation would repeat over and over, like the idling of an automobile engine. The Mojave earthquake occurred about two hours AFTER I posted "Secrets of the Mojave" part 2 and 3 to the vortexB listserver. Part 1 didn't make it b4 the event due to a typo on I made in the address line. And now the idea of "Nebiru" coming along just in time to raise further expectations that this planet is scheduled for a rendezvous w/ disaster... Are all these things a big COINCIDENCE????!!!! Who knows. Anyway, attached is my latest rendering of the old gent himself.

I hadn't considered this. In fact it may even provide for a closer approach between the planets than the model I proposed, provided that the semi-minor axis of Nibiru's orbit is very small.

Also for the information that the reaction H2 + ( K+) ---> KH + + (H) would be energetically favorable. Does this mean that using lots of ionized K would increase the amount of neutral atomic H in the system? You also mentioned that there are negative ion sources that use H + K ---> H- + K+. What's a negative ion source? And since this reaction uses up neutral atomic H, I wonder what the balance here would be as far as the total amount of neutral atomic H in the system is concerned. Do you have any estimate of how efficient a titanium-screen dissociator would be?

You might want to look up "Worlds in Collision" by Immanuel Velikovsky. 'They' could not find fault with his theory, so they attacked him personally.

ISBN 0-13-402461-3 152 pages vs ~400 pages * 2. Pawlicki's premise of the book as a whole is that "Reality" it self is build out of standing waves, to put it in one swooping over-simplification. [He asks a question: If your navigator gets paid by the hour, what is his pay scale in Hyperspace, a place where time does not exist? :-) ] >disturbed by the same observations that led to the Nibiru theory. (But why >would a planet explode? Per Velikovsky, and even Plato (tho I can't site the reference, lost it years ago), the orbits of the planets as we know them was very different in the past. In a few word summary: Earth should be in the orbit of Venus, Mars would be where Earth is today, Timar (sp?) was the planet that is now the Asotoride belt, etc... >>Nibiru or "the planet of crossing" entered the Solar System, and royally screwed it in to what we know today. A case of Demolition Derby on a Solar System size scale. Velikovsky explains just about every anomaly with out ever invoking Sitchin. "Why does Uranus roll like a bowling ball on its axis?" as one example. Sitchin does invoke Velikovsky, but is more based on the VERY OLD texts, like the Seminarian "Epic of Creation". The Book of Genius seems to be the last quarter or so of EofC. -- For information on any of the following check out my WEB site at: http://www.biogate.com/bpaddock/ Chemical Free Air Conditioning/No CFC's, Chronic Pain Relief, Echofone, Electromedicine, Electronics, Explore!, Free Energy, Full Disclosure, KeelyNet, Matric Limited, Neurophone, Oil City PA, Philadelphia Experiment. http://www.uCOS-II.com From vortex-l-request eskimo.com Mon Oct 18 18:52:35 1999 Received: (from smartlst localhost) by mx1.eskimo.com (8.9.1a/8.8.8) id SAA25354; Mon, 18 Oct 1999 18:49:33 -0700 Resent-Date: Mon, 18 Oct 1999 18:49:33 -0700 Message-ID: <006701bf19dc$40957760$fb441d26 fjsparber> From: "Frederick Sparber" To: References: <0.582ef731.253d19c9 aol.com> Subject: Re: Thoughts on Mills' Potassium Iodo Hydride Experiment Date: Mon, 18 Oct 1999 19:47:01 -0700 MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit X-Priority: 3 X-MSMail-Priority: Normal X-Mailer: Microsoft Outlook Express 5.00.2615.200 X-MimeOLE: Produced By Microsoft MimeOLE V5.00.2615.200 Resent-Message-ID: <"UIqiM1.0.0C6.juy2u" mx1> Resent-From: vortex-l eskimo.com Reply-To: vortex-l eskimo.com X-Mailing-List: archive/latest/31122 X-Loop: vortex-l eskimo.com Precedence: list Resent-Sender: vortex-l-request eskimo.com Status: O X-Status: ----- Original Message ----- From: To: Sent: Monday, October 18, 1999 5:48 PM Subject: Re: Thoughts on Mills' Potassium Iodo Hydride Experiment Tom Stolper wrote: > Fred, > > Thanks for the clarification about the dissociation rate.

Negative ion sources are used to create negative ions for particle accelerators so that when the H- gets up to speed, you pull off the electron and end up with a high-speed neutral H beam that is unaffected by electric or magnetic fields. Very well adapted for Star Wars stuff. :-) >And since this reaction uses up > neutral atomic H, I wonder what the balance here would be as far as the total > amount of neutral atomic H in the system is concerned.

Not off-hand, but, Titanium wants to form ~TiH2 which at the right temperature: TiH2 <--> TiH + H or such. I think the Potassium does it just as well.

So the suns corona would have pretty close to 100% H ? And this is why he says the corona is MUCH hotter than the suns surface even though it's farther away from the "stove". <> So Fred, looks like all I need is a container to hold H2 at 5000º K (4726.85º C) ! ***Speculation Alert*** Magnetic confinement comes to mind but for the problem of grabbing hold of the neutral H atoms and keeping them away from the walls of the container...bummer. I envision a continuos pinch plasma arc, oh, around a foot long and ¼ inch diameter inside a container designed to efficiently transfer the heat to a sink at the proper rate (to avoid overcooling). Container filled with H2 only at some positive atmospheric pressure. The arc should get the H up to a temperature where it will begin auto catalysis (per Mills). Mebby you need a little K in there to get the ball rolling? A foot long discharge in a positive H2 pressure?....now we are talking some really serious high voltage. Comes to mind there will be a large problem cooling the electrodes in such a setup...even on the small scale I am trying. ***Speculation Alert Off*** Probably Mills has come up against this also and may be why he is using microwave excitation. I guess you would want to tune the microwave oscillator to the resonant H frequency, whatever that is. > Regards, Frederick Regards, Vince Cockeram Las Vegas This post is also a test of getting degree ( º ) and the ( ¼ ) symbols to print correctly.

You already have one, Vince, a low pressure (millitorr) discharge can get up to 5,000 K (~ 0.5 ev)no sweat. It's all a matter of the Number of atoms/molecules (pressure)bouncing around at 1/2*mv^2 = kT, ie., Heat Content.You can safely stick your hand in an oven (momentarily)at 2,000 K, just don't touch anything that has lots of atoms/molecules wrt the air molecules, or stay long enough for an infrared burn. > > > I envision a continuos pinch plasma arc, oh, around a foot long > and ¼ inch diameter inside a container designed to efficiently > transfer the heat to a sink at the proper rate (to avoid overcooling).

Of course normal matter engineering would be out of the question, but what about subatomic mass? Particle beams?

Those plasma balls are driven by low power (less than 1 W), spike-making oscillator through a transformer, much like a small flyback. They run to a few kV on the peaks, I think. The plasma is made by capacitive coupling through the glass. The high capacitive reactance keeps the external current extremely low, so it is safe to touch. > Any old used Tokamaks laying around? Canadian government was selling "Tokamak de Varennes," a well-made, well equipped tokamak with 0.9 m major radius. In the end, I think they had to sell various subsystems separately, since no one wanted the whole package. My group bought two gyrotrons (high power microwave tubes) and ancillary equipment, to boost the heating power in our tokamak. They are being installed on our site now. ===== Michael J.

Hot fusioneers have never have looked for hydrinos, but they do a lot of looking at their plasmas with spectroscopes of many kinds. Unexpected and unexplained lines would have been noted, commented upon, and then made the subject of intense further experimental and theoretical effort.

This sounds like broadband rf noise modulated at 60 and/or 120 Hz. I remember some old fluorescent lights that did this. When the discharge extinguishes, as it must 120 current zero-crossings per second, it emits a pulse of rf. (This should be suppressed in well designed lights.) The result is broadband rf modulated at 120 Hz. The noise did not extend perceptibly to the FM band. There are probably other emitters around that have this same general character. Try searching for the source with a directional antenna. A portable radio with a ferrite antenna (dipole directivity pattern) might be more convenient than your big receiver. If it is a local source, try driving around in a car with an AM radio and seek maximum signal strength. ===== Michael J. Schaffer __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

This effect has been named by the inventors the "isotopic mutation effect". They use a common iron rod (isotopic number 56) with 3 simple coils wound around it. This rod is placed between a U shaped core (soft iron) for closing the magnetic circuit and thus reducing the magnetic losses (see the diagram below (use the courier 10 fonts)). #1 #2 #3 XX:===HH===HH===HH===:XX #1: Ind.coil (0.5 tesla)permanent B-field XX:===HH===HH===HH===:XX #2: Excit.coil (21Mhz sine wave at 10e-4 tesla) XX XX #3: Output coil XX XX :===: XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX :===: the iron(56)cylindrical rod XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX <---- Soft iron (U shaped) The inventors claim that if we introduce 105 eV to the iron (isotope 56), its change to the iron isotope 54. The energy generated by this nuclear reaction inside the iron rod will produce an energy gain of 20,000 eV. The energy required for generating the isotopic mutation is produced by a nuclear magnetic resonance effect. The parametric excitation is obtained by the coil #2 acting as the pump. The energy output is collected by the coil #3 which is able to produce 110-220-380V at 400Hz. The iron rod is used as the main source of energy by isotopic mutation effect, thus, this will provide a simple and cheap source of energy for a long time. The inventors claim that this device can be used for building self-powered elecrical power supplies. Translated from the patent FR9110472 "Activateur pour mutation isotopique" by Jean-Louis Naudin.

The broadband interference, whatever it was, vanished at some time after I encountered it (immediately after the Mojave earthquake) and approximately 36 hours later, when I turned on the AM radio again to see if it (the interference) was still there. It turns out the earthquake epicenter is located only about 36 mi east from my location, at a spot called Hector where there supposedly an abandoned mine dating back to the 1890's or so. Anyway, If I encounter the phenomena again, I will do as you suggest, right after I get finished taking things down from shelves and otherwise securing other objects around my place located in precipitous situations.

IMO, the hurdles of innovation are more complex. Some of the issues and solutions were handled discussed several years ago at MIT in the Symposium on Innovation and Innovation Centers, May 17-19, 1978. The Innovation Center was started there by Dr. Yao Tzu Li who was Charles Stark Draper's thesis advisor and the inventor of (among many other things) the small helicopter rotor which essentially facilitates moving the larger one below it. My invited paper was entitled "TWO MILLION YEARS OF INNOVATION". The paper was in the volume MIT Proceedings of the Symposium on Innovation and Innovation Centers, May 17-19, 1978. Because of my interests in innovation, in technology, and in the problems which inventors face, and my disagreement with the attempts to through the "problem" onto the inventor (which appears to be a new odious thing), I have reprinted my comments on innovation from the lecture into a pdf file, and will send it to anyone interested. The paper BTW is undergoing revision, and update for submission. It is more than 20 years later, and although the matters and issues remain unchanged, the whole concept has become more interesting based upon what happened to cold fusion. If anyone wants a copy, please simply send me private email please [subject: 2 MILLION] to keep the S/N here high. Thoughts on these issues are of course welcome. Best wishes.

I checked out the above URL, and found a long list of clickable jpg files. Not knowing which ones contained the diagrams I was looking for, I looked at all of them. Most were just French text, but the following ones contained diagrams: BR91-01.jpg, BR91-06.jpg, and SV03.jpg. Based on what I saw there, I came up with essentially the same diagram that I inferred earlier by inserting periods in the version that I received from you. Let a series of X's--e.g., XXXXXXXXXX--represent an iron bar. Let C1, C2, and C3 represent coils of 6 turns each wound around such a bar--e.g., XC1XC2XC3X. Let periods represent spaces. Result: X...................X XXC1XC2XC3XX X...................X X...................X XXXXXXXXXX Based on your writeup, C1 receives a steady DC current sufficient to produce a flux density of .5 tesla, while C2 receives a 21 MHz sinewave sufficient to produce a flux density of 1 gauss. Result: C3 yields an average of 220 volts at 400 Hz. C3 thus functions like the secondary of a bizarre transformer, and is alleged to produce more power out than the power input to C1 and C2 combined. Unfortunately, from the information given, I see no way to verify such a claim. Since B = pNI/L and L is unknown, I see no way to calculate I for either C1 or C2. Hence the input power is unknown. Likewise, since the current draw on C3 when it is at 220 volts is unknown, the output power cannot be calculated, either. Thus I do not see, at present, a calculation which implies that this device is "over unity." If the additional information that is needed is contained in the French text, I guess I am out of luck, since I have very little familiarity with that language, and would have to look up virtually every word in a dictionary were I to attempt a translation. While that might be a useful educational exercise, I don't have the time to do it right now. Please feel free to point out any errors in the above, or to fill in any missing information, if you have time to do so. Also, if you have a theory which implies that such a device ought to be "over unity," I would be interested in that as well. By the way, since the device was apparently patented in 1974, how has it been suppressed? Has it been "hiding in plain sight," in the patent archives of France, during the ensuing 25 years? If so, how could that be? What stopped the inventor from building a self-sustaining generator, and using it to attract vast attention worldwide, including all the capital he needed to go into mass production? Was he, for example, murdered as soon as the patent was issued? Please do not take the above as sarcasm. These are serious questions that need to be answered. --Mitchell Jones}*** From vortex-l-request eskimo.com Wed Oct 20 10:30:14 1999 Received: (from smartlst localhost) by mx1.eskimo.com (8.9.1a/8.8.8) id KAA05118; Wed, 20 Oct 1999 10:22:10 -0700 Resent-Date: Wed, 20 Oct 1999 10:22:10 -0700 Date: Wed, 20 Oct 1999 13:26:34 -0400 (EDT) From: John Schnurer To: vortex-l eskimo.com Subject: RDF....Re: Wide spectrum modulated hum In-Reply-To: <380DF2E2.41F6 ca-ois.com> Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Resent-Message-ID: <"tTkqL1.0.pF1.2fV3u" mx1> Resent-From: vortex-l eskimo.com Reply-To: vortex-l eskimo.com X-Mailing-List: archive/latest/31152 X-Loop: vortex-l eskimo.com Precedence: list Resent-Sender: vortex-l-request eskimo.com Status: RO X-Status: You can use these tricks to save your life if you are really LOST in a tough place.

First: Let's try to locate a radio transmitter. a] Pick one you can hear OK on am... not TOO loud ... b] holding the radio up right you will rotate it slowly on a compass rose and you will find the signal gets stonger and weaker. c] get out your map and yellow pages of your telephone book and the city street guide map of the town the radio is in. d] make a mark on the map "I am here!" .... e] draw a line, lightly, in pencil ... so you can use the map again! The line will go out from the radio and describe the WEAKEST pick up of the radio station..... the skinny part of the ferrite rod antenna will be pointing along a line that, among other things, .. goes through the station. NOW: .... drive in your car... or ride your horse, or bicycle or walk or how some ever ... about 5 to 10 miles... AND: 2] Holding the radio vertical and rotating about a compass heading ... you will now have a SECOND line ... AND !!!! Tradaaa to dee doaaa! Where they cross is where the transmitter is ... roughly. AND: Go to the library and get book on RDF! and-or amateur radio.

According to him, the problem arises when the sending party uses a fixed length font (e.g., Courier), and the default font of the recipient (Times, in my case) is a variable length font. Result: the spaces do not line up on the recipient's screen in the same way that they lined up on the sender's screen, and the art is garbled. To test this out, I followed his advice and selected the ASCII art that I got from Jean-Louis, and transformed it to Courier font. Result: it then lined up perfectly! Result: problem solved!

That's a dumb thing to say. Consider: 1. I regularly post messages about conventional energy conservation technology such as hybrid electric vehicles and compact flourescent light bulbs. 2. Our magazine has published articles about GEET, and we have a machine for evaluation. 3. This information, about on-line plans, was first posted here by my colleague Gene Mallove. 4. This is a stretch, but if the GEET works, it may be anomalous, which means I am interested in it and it may lead to unlimited supplies of energy. I have clearly stated on countless occasions that I do not care whether unlimited, pollution free energy comes from CF or green cheese. 5. I have repeatedly stated that I do not know whether CF will arrive "soon" or never, and that the arrival depends partly upon forces beyond our control, such as politics. I have noticed several gratuitous derisive comments here lately, some directed at me, some directed at others.

It was reported following Paul Pantone's talk at an INE conference that if you increased the amount of water in the fuel, air, water mixture the pipe going from the GEET machine to the engine got white hot, is this true? As I understand it, the GEET phonomena works with magnetism and an induced vortex. According to Paul Pantone, you can use toxic waste as fuel and the engine's exhaust will exceed EPA guidelines for new car emissions without a catlytic converter. I'm wondering what would happen if you added chlorinated hydrocarbons to the fuel stream.

Dear Jed: My company is extremely interested in the GEET technology, IF it works. I have written to Hal Fox, who happens to be in Salt Lake City (where Paul Pantone and his company are) to see if he could give me a 'heads up' on Paul and the GEET device; thus far: silence. One would hope that, given his position in the CF/Alternative Energy movement, he might take some time to respond. We have extensively studied the dynamics of the Ranque/Hilsch tube, on which the GEET is based (for the world's best synopsis, see: http://birleanu-pc1.sunderland.ac.uk/rhvtmatl/oldindex.htm ), and find good reason to suspect that Pantone has, in fact, effected an architecture which aligns the thermodynamic, chemical, electrodynamic, mechanical and optical reactions which occur simultaneously, in such a way as to obtain the 'leverage' he needs to efficiently reform hydrogen from complex hydrocarbons, using only waste exhaust heat as the input energy source. In this regard, he is many years ahead of everyone else in the field of 'hydrogen reforming from exhaust gases', which is a well recognized subculture in conventional alternative energy research. The recognized leaders in that field (Explore links from: ttp://sun1.bham.ac.uk/M.L.Wyszynski/abstracts/Stuttgart96/hydrogen96sum.html ) have devices that weigh hundreds of pounds attached to small engines, and have a long way to go to be practical as a vehicular adjunct -- requiring a trailer be towed behind the vehicle who's engine they are supporting with the reformed fuel. Given the absence of detractors online - unlike Joe Newman, Dennis Lee, et al - one is given to suspect that Pantone is the Genuine Article. I have offered to engage the Bioenergy Technology Laboratory of Florida Institute of Technology and the BTR Labs facility of the Midwest Research Institute (the management contractor to DoE for the National Renewable Energy Laboratory) to conclusively ascertain the dynamics of the GEET device, at our expense, using the most sophisticated analytical instrumentation currently available. Given Paul's more advanced GEET architectures, we could determine, through Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy, and other means, exactly WHAT is going on inside that tube. The magnetic phenomena which occur around it and the - sketchy - spectroscopy Pantone has gotten from Brigham Young and MIT suggesting low energy nuclear reactions (i.e. 57 anomalous elements in the exhaust stream and insufficient carbon discharge) make this an interesting study, which is much more easily diagnosed than flaky cold fusion electrolysis cells; there's just a lot more chemical throughput to analyze and no complex metallurgy to contend with. We are interested in using the GEET to decompose household garbage (less recyclable glass/aluminum, and compostable wet food waste), and it seems to be the best of the half dozen or so technologies available.

I've been filing away these URLS of yours for some time now, and you throw them at us with such rapidity, that I don't normally even have time to read them all. This one caught my eye, however, and I had to respond. I read the report, and I don't know if you have contact with these people, but if you do, you should suggest that they look into planting bamboo as an alternative to tree planting. Besides having many unique structural and insulation advantages over wood, it can also easily be used for paper production, which has been a major waste of trees in this world. As a bio-remediator, bamboo will absorb 40 times the amount of carbon per acre compared to trees. Harvesting bamboo is infinitely easier and safer in comparison to logging. Westerners don't think about bamboo as an alternative, I think, mainly because it has no tradition here, but it grows just fine in many parts of this country. I think that it could be a major cash crop if we dropped the blinders, and used it. Knuke Michael T.

There is a species of bamboo in this area, (and I've seen it in Virgina) that will produce over 30 tons/acre-year on a dry weight basis. And livestock love it too.Several years ago, I had the State Agricultural Research Lab dig some rhizomes up from my yard and plant it in the high plains for yield and water requirement studies. Field corn raised for green chop/silage will hit about 15-20 tons/acre (dry wt) also. In the early 70s SRI, did a study on "energy farms" using high tonnage biomass and sunflowers (of all things)are right at the top of the list. :-) With ash-mineral recovery and H2 production from the biogasification, ammonia synthesis is a snap, and the benifit/tillage ratio is about 16:1, ie., 40 acres of energy crop will support 640 acres of agricultural/biomass production, (if irrigation water is available, "dryland farming" or, at a reasonable energy expenditure).

I found that the emissions were indeed rather clean, as was reported and documented with fractional analysis. Sampling bottles provided by a company in Midland, TX that serves the oil industry were evacuated and connected directly into the exhaust stream. Samples were taken in a fairly normal carburation configuration and in the GEET configuration. The lab then performed analysis on both, confirming several of Pantone's claims. I do not know if this may be caused by lean running, due to the high vacuum developed in the intake fuel vapor stream. I would very much like to know the condition of the valves of an engine running under load configured with a GEET after a few thousand hours. Lean running may be clean, but engines do not tolerate it well. More interestingly, I found that the rod in the 'pyrolytic chamber' was strongly magnetized, with one distinct north and one distinct south pole. Wanting to see if the magnetization originated in the operation of the device or elsewhere, I removed it, reversed it, reinstalled it, and ran it several times. The rod then showed a quite different and much less simple magnetization. I have the materials to do further testing, intending to start with a virgin steel rod, showing no magetization. Some of you may remember my posting the question to Vortex asking if anyone could think of a means by which the rod could become magnetized by being exposed to the hot gas stream (which Pantone believes to be plasma), and the only replies that attempted to answer tried to explain it in terms of an ordinary method of magnetization. I think that the Pantone decision to make the plans available is admirable, although the market tends to react to such offers as being worth as much as they cost. GEET is not very scientific in their approach, and I really ought to be generating some more results. Edward Wall New Energy Research Laboratory Cold Fusion Technology, P.O.

If you plant a legume (Nitrogen Fixation)such as Alfalfa, Soybeans, Clover, etc., then you don't have to make Ammonia or Urea: 1, N2 + 3H2 ---> 2 NH3 (anhydrous ammonia, liquid) 2, 2 NH3 + CO2 ---> NH2-CO-NH2 (urea, solid) + H2O Phosphate, Potassium and other essential plant minerals are recoverable from the biomass-H2-synfuels process ash, and are recycled.

Where as the English orthography needs...simplifying, the English alphabet needs it two or three million times more." - Mark Twain. ...an intelligent child who is bidden to spell "DEBT", and very properly spells it "D-E-T", is caned for not spelling it with a "B" because Julius Caesar spelled it with a "B". - George Bernard Shaw.

For those who remember that a section (a square 1 mile on a side) is 640 acres, and that a hectare is a square 100 meters on a side, the conversion is easy: the number of hectares per acre equals the number of hectares in a section divided by 640--to wit: [(5280)(12)/(39.37)(100)]^2/640 = .405 hect/acre. Thus a 2700 acre farm is 2700)(.405) = 1093 hectares. Doing these sorts of simple calculations yourself, of course, requires knowledge of basic relationships between units (e.g., that a meter equals 39.37 inches, that a mile equals 5280 feet, etc.), but that is easy to acquire: you just look them up when you don't remember them. Result: before long you will remember the ones that you use often, and thus will acquire the ability to move easily back and forth between the metric and the English systems of units. I mention the above because many of the lurkers in this group will enhance their ability to follow these discussions by means of such practice. I also would suggest that those who post here ought to go into more detail in their various calculations, so that their reasoning will be intelligible to a broader cross section of those who read this group. I constantly see not merely bad English here--as mentioned in another post--but also cryptic calculations that will be understood by virtually no one other than practicing engineers and physicists. Since in the typical group there are huge numbers of lurkers for everyone who posts, I think those who participate in this group ought to skip fewer steps in almost all of the calculations that they discuss. --Mitchell Jones}*** From vortex-l-request eskimo.com Thu Oct 21 11:12:05 1999 Received: (from smartlst localhost) by mx1.eskimo.com (8.9.1a/8.8.8) id LAA13908; Thu, 21 Oct 1999 11:10:17 -0700 Resent-Date: Thu, 21 Oct 1999 11:10:17 -0700 Message-ID: <001901bf1b5f$5a9f5de0$e28e1d26 fjsparber> From: "Frederick Sparber" To: References: <3.0.5.32.19990729211828.008aa8c0 mail.eden.com> Subject: Re: GEET plans available Date: Wed, 20 Oct 1999 17:57:58 -0700 MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit X-Priority: 3 X-MSMail-Priority: Normal X-Mailer: Microsoft Outlook Express 5.00.2615.200 X-MimeOLE: Produced By Microsoft MimeOLE V5.00.2615.200 Resent-Message-ID: <"PYo0S.0.AP3.8Sr3u" mx1> Resent-From: vortex-l eskimo.com Reply-To: vortex-l eskimo.com X-Mailing-List: archive/latest/31178 X-Loop: vortex-l eskimo.com Precedence: list Resent-Sender: vortex-l-request eskimo.com Status: O X-Status: ----- Original Message ----- From: Larry Wharton To: Sent: Wednesday, October 20, 1999 2:56 PM Subject: GEET plans available What planet are you from, Larry? :-) Any biomass gasifier that use the exhaust heat of the engine to make synthesis gas (H2, COx, CH4 etc.) will work and have been in use for decades. > > Plans for a GEET device are now available at: > > http://www.friend.ly.net/GEET/plans.htm > > I know that this will not interest those of you like Jed Rothwell who > are certain that unlimited quantities of energy will soon be > available through cold fusion.

The best guide by far is off-line, but available at any bookstore for $5.95. It is Strunk & White's "The Elements of Style," (Allyn and Bacon, 1979), 92 pages, a.k.a. "The Little Book." As one reviewer said, this book "should be the daily companion of anyone who writes for a living and, for that matter, anyone who writes at all." Mitchell Jones wrote: > I realize that attempts to correct the usages of others are generally > fruitless, but this group has been flagrantly abusing a number of words > derived from Greek antecedents for a very long time, and so, for the record: > > (1) "Phenomena," "criteria," and "data" are plural. Thus when you say "a > phenomena," or "a criteria, or "data is," you misuse the words. I disagree. We speak English, not Greek. We should apply English rules to all words, regardless of origin. Borrow words should be treated with standard syntax, inflections, parts of speech and pronunciation. In English, "data" has evolved into a non-count noun, like "milk" or "sand." We say "kimonos" with the plural inflection even though Japanese makes no distinction between numbers. Japanese speakers sometimes treat English borrow words as exceptions, applying pseudo-English structures. This confuses everyone, native speaker and translator alike. It is pedantic to emphasize the foreign origin of words. It serves no purpose. Nearly all words in English (and Japanese too, as it happens) have been borrowed from other languages during the last 2,000 years. English has borrowed from hundreds of other languages in all parts of the world. It is bad enough that we preserve the original spellings so often. We could never preserve the original syntax, pronunciation, parts of speech, cases and so on from sources as varied as French, German, Dutch, Russian, Latin, Greek, Navaho and Chinese. The past tense of "tote" would be formed according to the rules for Swahili, and the past tense of "stoke" would be in Dutch. It would be chaos. There would dozens of different ways to form plurals, no plurals at all for many words, sixty different diminutives, and hundreds of other peculiar, unique inflections. For example, adjectives borrowed from Japanese would have a past tense: "is blue" (aoi) would be a different word than "was blue" (aokatta). And if you think that's confusing wait until you see Russian. English is complicated enough already. It has more idiomatic grammar than most languages, and of the major languages it has the third most difficult form of orthography, measured by the number years it takes children to master the spelling.

Can you or some one tell me why in the in English/Metric conversion, we are always converting Pounds to Kilograms and vica-versa? The Pound is a unit of Weight in the English System. The Kilogram is a unit of Mass in the Metric System. In the English System the Slug is the unit of Mass, and in the Metric System the Newton is the unit of Weight. I never see any one converting Slugs to Kilograms, or Newtons to Pounds?

Ed tells us it can run on gas, and that it can run on gas with some Pepsi in it. Ok, well that is interesting (sincere thanks to Ed), and the magnetization of the rod is certainly strange if not downright anomalous. But I'd like to know if it really - A: can run at twice the efficiency (or anything like that), and B: run on urine, used motor oil, 'spoiled' diesel, and any other hydrocarbon slop we might find lying about as per some of the claims I've seen for this device. I don't think I'm being unreasonably skeptical here, I really hope it works and there's some 'buzz' that it does.

Hot fusioneers have never have looked for hydrinos, but they do a lot of looking at their plasmas with spectroscopes of many kinds. Unexpected and unexplained lines would have been noted, commented upon, and then made the subject of intense further experimental and theoretical effort. That's how science moves forward." Mills has published three articles in FUSION TECHNOLOGY, with another one accepted, according to the BLP website. Isn't FUSION TECHNOLOGY read by the hot fusion community? Mills hasn't published in more prominent journals because they don't want to hear what he has to say. They believe he has to be wrong, and they think that there's no point in publishing something that can't be right, even when it's backed by lots of experimental and observational evidence. Do hot fusioneers have EUV spectroscopes? Mills had to go to a lot of trouble to find and adapt one that could observe his relatively low-temperature plasmas, which are not fully ionized. Mills has noted and commented upon unexpected and unexplained lines in laboratory experiments and astrophysical observations, and the reaction has been to sweep them under the rug. That's how science sometimes fails to move forward. I think that the hot fusioneers are overreacting to Mills' hydrinos, to the extent that they take any notice of them at all. I don't think Mills' energy cells represent a threat to hot fusion funding. Even if Mills can commercialize his process soon, plasma physics will remain a key field of research, and the world will still want fusion power eventually. The world doesn't need ITER (the International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor), because ITER would be far too radioactive, but it does need next-generation fusion programs, specifically, those using Helium-3 as fuel. Hydrinos do threaten to shake up the the current structure of the hot fusion program, though, and that's always an unsettling prospect, no matter what one's field.

Most likely, when the real mechanism of Hydrino formation is understood, both Hot and Cold Fusion (Quantum Mechanical Tunneling) will finally be understood and both will move forward rapidly.

Result: the attempt to apply this type of standard would merely lead to endless disputes about whether a particular rule or term has been used "long enough" by speakers of English to justify treating it as a legitimate part of the language, and we would wind of with a government review board telling us how to talk, as is presently the case in France. It is precisely to avoid these sorts of endless and pointless disputes that the ultimate arbiter of what is and is not correct in a language has traditionally been typical usage as it appears in published writings--i.e., so called "usage among the educated." Applying this approach, lexicographers have traditionally taken a statistically based, scientific approach: they examine the published writings of the time, determine which usages are most popular therein, and treat those usages as "correct." --Mitchell Jones}*** . Borrow words should be treated with >standard syntax, inflections, parts of speech and pronunciation. In >English, "data" has evolved into a non-count noun, like "milk" or "sand." ***{"Data" and "datum" have been part of standard English usage for more than a hundred years, and during that entire span of time, up to and including the present, "datum" has been designated the singular form, and "data" has been designated the plural form. Granted, in recent years the traditional practice of determining best usage by a study of published writings has begun to break down, due to the advent of the personal computer. What has happened is that the costs of publishing have collapsed, and vast numbers of individuals whose language skills are not up to professional standards now find themselves in a position to either publish their musings themselves, or to find a ready outlet in one of the multitudinous "Zines" published by others. Indeed, with the advent of the internet it has become possible for literally any speaker of English, whatever his skill level, to publish his thoughts in that language, and put them instantly before a potential audience of many tens of millions. Result: an intense debate has arisen among lexicographers regarding *which* published writings ought to be polled when usage data are being collected; and, when the compilers of a particular dictionary have employed very lax standards, or none at all, one can even find an occasional claim that "data is" has now become acceptable! That, however, is patent nonsense, and, in fact, I would advise anyone who is contemplating purchasing a dictionary to eliminate from his list any publication which stoops to that level. The reason: most people purchase a dictionary because they want to cull from their vocabulary usages that will cause them to appear to be ignorant, and, obviously, a dictionary which consults the ignorant to decide what is "correct" will be of no use to them. Best usage should not be sought after by examining what is vulgar and common, but by studying the writings of people who write well. --Mitchell Jones}*** >We say "kimonos" with the plural inflection even though Japanese makes no >distinction between numbers. ***{Irrelevant. I never claimed that English usage ought to be determined by consulting with people who do not speak English. --MJ}*** [snip] > >- Jed From vortex-l-request eskimo.com Fri Oct 22 06:56:14 1999 Received: (from smartlst localhost) by mx1.eskimo.com (8.9.1a/8.8.8) id GAA10812; Fri, 22 Oct 1999 06:55:23 -0700 Resent-Date: Fri, 22 Oct 1999 06:55:23 -0700 Message-Id: <3.0.1.32.19991022094346.0114ecb0 world.std.com> X-Sender: mica world.std.com X-Mailer: Windows Eudora Pro Version 3.0.1 (32) Date: Fri, 22 Oct 1999 09:43:46 -0400 To: vortex-l eskimo.com From: Mitchell Swartz Subject: Re: Symbol for gravity In-Reply-To: Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Resent-Message-ID: <"v-OIX3.0.oe2.Ap64u" mx1> Resent-From: vortex-l eskimo.com Reply-To: vortex-l eskimo.com X-Mailing-List: archive/latest/31194 X-Loop: vortex-l eskimo.com Precedence: list Resent-Sender: vortex-l-request eskimo.com Status: O X-Status: g, with a vector above it. as in F = mg (all vectors above F,g not shown) Get thee to a library and some physics texts ASAP. ;-)X Mitchell Swartz At 09:32 AM 10/22/99 -0400, John Schnurer wrote: > > Is there a symbol for gravity? > > > J > > From vortex-l-request eskimo.com Fri Oct 22 07:01:56 1999 Received: (from smartlst localhost) by mx1.eskimo.com (8.9.1a/8.8.8) id GAA13555; Fri, 22 Oct 1999 06:59:40 -0700 Resent-Date: Fri, 22 Oct 1999 06:59:40 -0700 Message-Id: <3.0.1.32.19991022094749.01151c50 world.std.com> X-Sender: mica world.std.com X-Mailer: Windows Eudora Pro Version 3.0.1 (32) Date: Fri, 22 Oct 1999 09:47:49 -0400 To: vortex-l eskimo.com From: Mitchell Swartz Subject: Re: Misuse of Words In-Reply-To: References: <3.0.6.32.19991021143458.007adb30 pop.mindspring.com> <2D0D4UQy8gVd092yn csonline.net> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Resent-Message-ID: <"rvE9K2.0.iJ3.Bt64u" mx1> Resent-From: vortex-l eskimo.com Reply-To: vortex-l eskimo.com X-Mailing-List: archive/latest/31195 X-Loop: vortex-l eskimo.com Precedence: list Resent-Sender: vortex-l-request eskimo.com Status: O X-Status: Among this vortex of comments on words, something has bothered me for years is the mixing of Greek and Latin.

The goal of a writer is to efficiently transfer a series of images from his mind to that of the reader. Grammar, punctuation, spelling, vocabulary, and style are merely means to that end, and should be chosen with it in mind. That means you want to avoid "bad" usages not because they are bad per se, but because you don't want your readers being diverted away from your intended stream of images while they think about your grammar, or your spelling, or your punctuation, etc. The best tutor, therefore, is someone who is skilled at the craft of writing--someone who knows how to use words in ways that provide precise control of the image stream. That means you should study the techniques of good writers, and you should purchase a dictionary compiled by lexicographers whose usage statistics were derived from a study of good writing. Once you have a good dictionary, of course, you have to use it--which means: when in doubt about a usage, look it up. (This is obvious, but, unfortunately, most people are simply too lazy to do it. Their dictionaries just sit on the shelf, unused, and their language skills never improve.) --Mitchell Jones}*** > >All through English Class in school I had two fundamental >problems: > >A) I'm never going to need this stuff why am I wasting my >time with it.

The spelling, grammar, punctuation, or terminology which will most efficiently transfer those images--i.e., with the smallest number of interruptions--is "correct," and anything else is "incorrect." The best way to identify such usages is to study writers who are masters of their craft, and, fortunately, they are easy to identify: they are simply the guys whose presentations are easiest to follow. That means you don't have to know what best usage is to recognize them, and, thus, permits you to base judgments about best usage on a study of their writings. --Mitchell Jones}*** > >Spelling: See "The New Age of REASON" by John M.

However, until phonemic script becomes widely accepted, if you spell "debt" as "det," you are going to jar your reader out of the intended flow of images as soon as he comes to it. If you spell it the normal way, on the other hand, the desired flow of images will *not* be interrupted. Since that is what you, as a writer, want, you should use the conventional spelling in any writing intended for an adult audience. When writing for children who are just learning the mechanics of reading, on the other hand, I advocate phonemic spelling, because it facilitates the teaching process. Thus uw shud spel liek this for thee litul kids. :-) And, of course, if such books begin to be published, then as the kids who used them grow up, they will provide a market for those who use phonemic spelling in more and more advanced material, until, finally, such texts will be readily available in all subjects, and it will be possible to dispatch conventional spelling into the great beyond, where it belongs. --Mitchell Jones}*** > >See also:"Alfubet F/\R hu Komput.r /_\j" (Titel is close has I could get >in ASCII.) by John Culkin-Science Digest- August 1982.

Fuel/air to the inside, right? Can't tell that from > the page. The steel rod is inside of a pipe that is welded into the exhaust manifold. The exhaust streams around the pipe. Thus, exhaust heat is captured in the intake fuel vapor (which is not a new concept), which improves vaporization and whatever else it does. The rod is positioned in the middle of the pipe by beads that are welded onto the sides of the rod near either end. It constricts the cross sectional area and that causes the vapor to be at low pressure in this area, thus low temperature, which makes for an very effective heat transfer from the exhaust vapor. This lowering of temperature is not 'free', of course, it takes work from the engine to pull that vacuum and the mass of fuel/air that gets to the cylinder is less than it would be if it were running as a normal engine. Consequently, the engine cannot develop its rated power. I was rather impressed by my visit to Pantone's place in Price, where he demonstrated the running of a huge Wakausha engine-generator he had in his backyard. Once warmed up, the exhaust stream was incredibly clean. I've been around such large gasoline powered generators at FAA facilities a lot. I know what the exhaust normally looks and smells like. His exhaust was cool and clean enough to stick your face into. Reliable data on efficiency is hard to come by, and I would really like to develop some, but the rod magnetization is much easier to investigate. An engine was hauled to Pennsylvania by the Pantone group, where it was tested. I called and spoke with some people involved in the efficiency testing, who were not GEET related. They were unimpressed. I then spoke with a GEET person, who told me that the engine was not running well. > IF it does and Ed > has one or two of them, he must be working on some *really great* stuff to > be passing over a thorough testing of the GEET(s).

There's little question, as Frederick noted, that gassifying the intake vapor with exhaust heat does do something and isn't at all a new idea. It is all about "anomalous" stuff, or it's nothing. Transmutated elements, weird heat (or cold), and that magnetized rod. And how could the rod become *strongly* magnetized if something really unusual wasn't going on? So to me it seems that the GEET is not just about that the fuel/air mix is being more efficiently vaporized, it's that the intake flow is getting fundamentally changed by being converted into some sort of highly electrified/magnetized plasma, with all sorts of wierd & fun results, just as PP claims. Or not! But that's the question. I like the magnetization as a key piece of initial evidence because it's so in-yer-face and doesn't depend on equivocal measurements everyone can dicker over forever. Seems to me that that alone, a dramatically powerful but compact electro/mag generating Hilsch/Rankine tube, ought to make everyone sit up straight. - Rick Monteverde Honolulu, HI From vortex-l-request eskimo.com Fri Oct 22 13:28:46 1999 Received: (from smartlst localhost) by mx1.eskimo.com (8.9.1a/8.8.8) id NAA01567; Fri, 22 Oct 1999 13:27:01 -0700 Resent-Date: Fri, 22 Oct 1999 13:27:01 -0700 Message-ID: <00bd01bf1ccc$0799f6a0$15637dc7 computer> From: "Ed Wall" To: References: <010001bf1c41$6ba52420$f1441d26 fjsparber> <3.0.1.32.19991022125833.01806e18@mail.eden.com> Subject: Re: Running GEET on Biomass Date: Fri, 22 Oct 1999 16:28:10 -0400 MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit X-Priority: 3 X-MSMail-Priority: Normal X-Mailer: Microsoft Outlook Express 5.00.2314.1300 X-MimeOLE: Produced By Microsoft MimeOLE V5.00.2314.1300 Resent-Message-ID: <"-Vqgw3.0.LO.LYC4u" mx1> Resent-From: vortex-l eskimo.com Reply-To: vortex-l eskimo.com X-Mailing-List: archive/latest/31208 X-Loop: vortex-l eskimo.com Precedence: list Resent-Sender: vortex-l-request eskimo.com Status: O X-Status: Yes, he did.

The delay in registering this accumulation is seen as the "speed" of light between emitter and receiver. I think this goes to the discussion we had here recently where the emmission and absorbtion characteristics of energy quanta are all we really see in our electromagnetic world of sense, and we're "in the dark" about the nature of things occuring between emission and absorbtion (detection). His experiment casts some light on that mysterious area, and the results are not what most people would think. He's driving folks nuts over on the sci.physics.electromag and optics NGs.

I didn't claim that I observed what might be described as a strong field. I did observe apparent changing of the magnetization of the rod by reversing the rod in the pipe and running it. I do not see how any magnetization could occur in the circumstances found here. How would a flowing non-ionized gas generate a field? Of course, there is a magnetic field associated with the engine's generator, but that is small and far removed from the rod and hardly strong enough to produce the strength of the field on the rod and associated manifold. There are claims that credit cards were erased, but I had no such problem. Of course, the one I worked on is pretty small.

No, but Pantone does. Vibrations from a running engine on an unmagnetized rod while pointing magnetic north as Pantone says to do might give the rod some magnetization. Could your different magnetization patterns after changing it around be explained by the different magnetic environment of the surrounding pipes relative to the new alignment? Vibration might create new magnetic patterns based on the magnetic fields of the magnetized iron in the surrounding apparatus. Pantone says it took both hands to pull a wrench off one of the gizmos. *That's* not a field that would form from engine vibration on a ferrous rod pointing north.

I had the rod orthogonal to the Earth's field during these tests.

I just checked that rod with a magnetometer and found that the field strength is on the order of the Earth's field strength, which is weaker than I expected, and supports that field as the source of the rod's magnetization. The rod still that quirky field reversal at about midpoint. It could be that half the rod exceeded the Curie point and cooled with a field imposed by the surrounding steel. A problem with that is that the surrounding steel (the inner pipe) would be quite a bit hotter than the rod, becuase it is in the exhaust stream, which is a lot hotter than the fuel vapor. The next layer of steel would be the exhaust manifold, and that is probably an inch away from the rod. The field associated with that is as weak as the one on the rod, so it is hard to see how it could be the cause of the changed field on the rod. > > Pantone says it took both hands to pull a wrench off one of the gizmos. > *That's* not a field that would form from engine vibration on a ferrous rod > pointing north.

Park Friday, 22 Oct 99 Washington, DC 1. POLYGRAPH: SENATE CALLS ON NIH TO EXAMINE POLYGRAPH VALIDITY. A Sense of the Senate resolution attached to the Labor, HHS Appropriations Bill calls on NIH to investigate the validity of the polygraph as a screening tool. A 1983 study by the Office of Technology Assessment found little evidence to support such applications. A letter from Senator Jeff Bingaman (D-NM)to NIH Director Harold Varmus notes that polygraphy is based on theories of psychophysiological phenomena that are "within the technical expertise of the NIH." NIH is asked to initiate and support a study by the National Academy of Sciences updating the 1983 OTA study. Meanwhile, DOE Secretary Bill Richardson, feeling the heat from the labs, has scaled back the testing plan from some 5,000 weapons scientists to about 1,000 people in sensitive jobs. However, if the polygraph doesn't work, no one should be tested. 2. BUDGET: PRESIDENT SIGNS THE VA/HUD/IA APPROPRIATIONS BILL. The final deal negotiated on a bipartisan basis between the White House and Congress, restored the science cuts made by the House (WN 10 Sep 99). The NASA budget is actually increased $100M over the request after being cut $1B by the House. NSF is up 6.5% over last year, mostly for Information Technology and biocomplexity. 3. MIR: RUSSIA WANTS SHUTTLE TO RETRIEVE "VALUABLE" EQUIPMENT. The 11.5 tons (yes, NASA used "tons") of stuff, valued at about a billion dollars by the Russians, would be used on the Russian ISS modules. Does it seem likely that the US would agree to send a shuttle to pick up outdated equipment that cost about as much as a shuttle flight? Meanwhile, a group of US entrepreneurs proposes to use a 7 kilometer electrodynamic tether to save Mir, though it's not clear where the electric power would come from. In the past, attempts to deploy tethered satellites have been a source of embarrassment for NASA (WN 11 Mar 94 and WN 1 Mar 96). 4. CELLULAR PHONES: 20/20 REVIVES THE BRAIN CANCER CONTROVERSY. It began in 1993 when a Florida man brought suit against cellular phone companies after his wife died of brain cancer. "She talked on the thing all the time and held it against her head," he said on Larry King Live (WN 29 Jan 93). That was the extent of the evidence and a federal judge threw out the claim two years later (WN 26 May 95). Wednesday night, ABC News 20/20, in what Diane Sawyer called "the report everyone will be talking about," asked its own experts. They were familiar to anyone who followed the power-line controversy. The editor of Microwave News, Louis Slesin, was repeatedly referred to as "Dr. Slesin." Doctor of what? Reached by phone this morning, he would not say. However, WN has confirmed that Slesin's PhD is in "Urban Studies and Planning." We don't know if "everyone is talking about" the 20/20 report, but Nokia, a major cell phone maker mentioned on the program, went up 8 points on the NY Stock Exchange.

This equates to the speed of light for "photons" in a general sense. The implication is that nothing flies across either the solar system or the street, i.e., we don't need photons. Sansbury thinks photons hurtling through the void is a concept in violation of Occam. Again, he claims that instantly energy begins accumulating at the distant target the moment light emerges from the emitter. But *detection* at the target will not occur until d/c later in the emitter's reference frame - under normal circumstances. Sansbury's setup does an end run around normal circumstances, which is what any good experiment is supposed to do. He interrupts the normal accumulation process before detection would ordinarily occur, and registers the effect of that interruption. It helps me to think of it as a sort of double-slit experiment laid out in the time domain along the beam travel line rather than spatially in a plane normal to the beam as it is usually done. I don't know for sure if his experiment is being run in a perfectly valid manner, but if it is good, I don't know how it could be misinterpreted. - Rick Monteverde Honolulu, HI From vortex-l-request eskimo.com Fri Oct 22 18:20:08 1999 Received: (from smartlst localhost) by mx1.eskimo.com (8.9.1a/8.8.8) id SAA06874; Fri, 22 Oct 1999 18:12:49 -0700 Resent-Date: Fri, 22 Oct 1999 18:12:49 -0700 Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" X-Sender: mjones pop.jump.net Message-Id: In-Reply-To: References: <009601bf1bcf$835aa800$e28e1d26 fjsparber> Date: Fri, 22 Oct 1999 20:08:35 -0500 To: vortex-l eskimo.com From: Mitchell Jones Subject: Re: Cryptic Calculations Resent-Message-ID: <"ucnuz1.0.Hh1.HkG4u" mx1> Resent-From: vortex-l eskimo.com Reply-To: vortex-l eskimo.com X-Mailing-List: archive/latest/31216 X-Loop: vortex-l eskimo.com Precedence: list Resent-Sender: vortex-l-request eskimo.com Status: O X-Status: >>***{Looking conversion factors up in a table is fine for a person who >>already moves smoothly and easily back and forth between metric and English >>units, but I think it is better for the novice to calculate such things. > >Can you or some one tell me why in the in English/Metric >conversion, we are always converting Pounds to Kilograms and >vica-versa? > >The Pound is a unit of Weight in the English System.

The pound is the unit of mass and is defined as equal to .45359237 kg, whereas the poundal is defined as the force required to give a 1-lb mass an acceleration of 1 ft/sec^2. (2) In the slug variant of the system, the pound is the unit of force. The slug is the unit of mass and is defined as the mass which experiences an acceleration of 1 ft/sec^2 when acted on by a 1 lb force. Since "a pound of force" is defined, within this system, as the force Earth's gravity exerts on a 1 lb mass at sea level, and since that force produces an acceleration of 32.174 ft/sec^2, it follows that a slug must be equivalent to a 32.174 lb mass as defined within (2), above. Bottom line: strictly speaking, when we say that 1 kg = 2.2 lbs, we are using the pound as a unit of mass, as per (1), above. If you are still confused, welcome to the club. I have to think my way carefully through this issue each time the question is raised, and, believe me, it is raised often. The difficulty, I think, is due to the fact that the English system *evolved*--which means: it was not the result of conscious design by one man or a small group of men, and, as a result, it is simply *untidy*, in much the same way that human languages tend to be untidy. --Mitchell Jones}*** > > >-- >For information on any of the following check out my WEB site at: > http://www.biogate.com/bpaddock/ >Chemical Free Air Conditioning/No CFC's, Chronic Pain Relief, Echofone, >Electromedicine, Electronics, Explore!, Free Energy, Full Disclosure, >KeelyNet, Matric Limited, Neurophone, Oil City PA, Philadelphia Experiment. > http://www.uCOS-II.com From vortex-l-request eskimo.com Fri Oct 22 18:37:08 1999 Received: (from smartlst localhost) by mx1.eskimo.com (8.9.1a/8.8.8) id SAA14966; Fri, 22 Oct 1999 18:36:06 -0700 Resent-Date: Fri, 22 Oct 1999 18:36:06 -0700 Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" X-Sender: mjones pop.jump.net Message-Id: In-Reply-To: <199910222041556.SM00103 [192.168.0.2]> Date: Fri, 22 Oct 1999 20:33:18 -0500 To: vortex-l eskimo.com From: Mitchell Jones Subject: Re: Sansbury's experiments on the nature of light Resent-Message-ID: <"zgJ_X3.0.mf3.64H4u" mx1> Resent-From: vortex-l eskimo.com Reply-To: vortex-l eskimo.com X-Mailing-List: archive/latest/31217 X-Loop: vortex-l eskimo.com Precedence: list Resent-Sender: vortex-l-request eskimo.com Status: RO X-Status: >Mitchell - > > >> ***{I would guess that Sansbury is misinterpreting his own data.

I must admit I've never heard of the principle of continuity, but who ever said the process Sansbury describes isn't continuous? It *is* action at a distance though. I can also visualize it, though with much difficulty, by the notion that influence of the waving charges at A already exists at the target B as a probability function which is only realized fully, or "collapsed" to some distinct and detectable value at d/c time later. Mess with it's propagation path at any time in the transaction from emission to absorbsion, and it will skew that probablility (it's value) is some observable way. It seems to me that it may be the traditional view of a photon flying through space that tends to generate a violation of the principle of continuity if I understand that phrase correctly (I probably don't), and sometimes creates problems for CoE too. - Rick Monteverde Honolulu, HI From vortex-l-request eskimo.com Fri Oct 22 19:48:45 1999 Received: (from smartlst localhost) by mx1.eskimo.com (8.9.1a/8.8.8) id TAA14166; Fri, 22 Oct 1999 19:39:14 -0700 Resent-Date: Fri, 22 Oct 1999 19:39:14 -0700 Message-ID: <38111F44.B4B8F7A verisoft.com.tr> Date: Sat, 23 Oct 1999 05:36:52 +0300 From: hamdi ucar X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.7 [en] (Win98; I) X-Accept-Language: en,tr MIME-Version: 1.0 To: vortex , freenrg Subject: Effects of Magnetic Field on Metabolic Action in ...

The skin temperature was found to increase by 0.4-1.2°C after a 5-min exposure to a magnetic field of 0.45 or 1.2 T. The binding ratio of oxygen showed a rapid decrease with application of magnetic field, which indica ted the release of oxygen from hemoglobin.

Mills published his articles back when FT was not reviewing anomalous energy articles strictly. I heard via a colleague who claimed to have been involved with some of the ANS (Am. Nuclear Society, publishers of FT) activities, that ANS intervened to raise the standards of FT. Even so, I don't know of any of my colleagues that reads the back section of FT where cold fusion and other such papers occasionally appear. >Do hot fusioneers have EUV spectroscopes?

Spectroscopes of many kinds are basic tools (necessary, but not sufficient) to study plasmas. >Mills has noted and commented upon unexpected and unexplained lines in >laboratory experiments and astrophysical observations, and the reaction has >been to sweep them under the rug. I read a few of the papers on plasmas (those I could get quickly) cited on Mills' web pages a couple of years ago.

I agree, and in this I am in a minority among my peers. But then, I hang out on Vortex, too! Deuterium-Helium-3 fusion is about 100 times harder than deuterium-tritium (DT) fusion. That's kind of daunting. We don't know if it is practically possible or not, yet. We do know that we already know enough to do DT fusion, albeit not efficiently enough to make it pay. ===== Michael J. Schaffer __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

Sansbury thinks > photons hurtling through the void is a concept in violation of Occam. Oooo. This is weirding me out. The stuff that started boiling out of my brain during a recent occurrence of "too little sleep mode" dovetails with Sansbury's assertion. :) Suppose an atom emits a quantum of light. According to conventional QM, that light travels as an expanding spherical wavetrain. Think "glass onion." If a distant atom absorbs it, then a QM-event occurs wherein the entire wavetrain, everywhere in the universe, winks out of existence simultaneously. The wavetrain could be light-years in diameter, yet if that wavetrain is associated with just one photons-worth of EM energy, then the whole wavetrain must be absorbed by the atom which ate the photon. ( This is simply the well-known Bell/Aspect/EPR stuff, where 'wavefunction collapse' must be instantaneous when the photon interacts at a point in space. ) But look at this: PHOTON DIES SCREAMING (photon-less EM waves) http://www.eskimo.com/~billb/freenrg/sukdynam.html ENERGY-SUCKING ANTENNAS http://www.eskimo.com/~billb/tesla/tesceive.html What if atoms have a habit of going "snap" when they are illuminated with single-frequency oscillating EM fields? Suppose Sansbury is right, and it takes a certain amount of illumination-time before an atom's internal resonance can build up to the point where it "eats" some energy. In that case, the brighter the light, the faster the atom would respond. But wait... what if each atom did not respond to the light in general, but instead responded to the incredibly narrow frequency band of a SINGLE distant atom? If the "Q-factor" of a receiving atom is infinite, then it can only repond to waves which are an absolutely perfect match for the frequency of the atom's internal tuned circuit. This might mean that atoms do not couple to "light", but instead they couple to individual distant atoms which happen to have the same frequency (or happen to have the same 3-D doppler shift vector.) In that case the delay before reception would depend on the distance between the emitter and receiver (this assumes that a single atom can only emit a particular constant level of light-flux.) If true, and if we next add to the mix the "apparent photons" demonstrated by conventional QM experiments, then it looks like pairs of atoms must be in some sort of instantaneous communication, because in order to mimic photons, the "sending" atom has to know when the "receiving" atom has swallowed some energy, and then it has to instantaneously inform all other entangled atoms of this fact. According to this bizarre description, we would say that energy is conserved because "apparent photons" are conserved. The atoms APPEAR to have exchanged a particle, but instead the transmitter-atom has lost its EM vibration, and the receiver-atom has gained the same amount. And, because the atoms are paired in an instantaneous communication-entanglement, the transmitter is told that it has lost energy at the same moment that the receiver wakes up and performs the "energy sucking antenna" process. > Again, he claims that instantly energy begins accumulating at the distant > target the moment light emerges from the emitter.

If atoms are like RLC resonators, then they would act inert when first illuminated, and would only wake up and perform a photonlike interaction after they had begun to "ring" slightly. > Sansbury's setup does an end run around normal > circumstances, which is what any good experiment is supposed to do.

The abhorrent part of Sansbury's idea is that, if the speed of EM is infinite, then there is no such thing as a light wave, and the "wavelength" concept becomes meaningless. How can we then explain wave mechanics? Why would microwave resonators have the size they do? How could we hope to explain the RF standing waves which array themselves between reflectors? Microwave ovens would lack hotspots! And holography makes sense only if light behaves as spherical wavetrains which resemble expanding, concentrically-layered balls of E and M flux. > I don't know for sure if his experiment is being run in a perfectly valid > manner, but if it is good, I don't know how it could be misinterpreted. Rather than using light, I wonder what would happen with electrical pulses in long spools of coax cable? It should be easy to use logic gates to produce short pulses, and to make/break connections between the wires. (Wasn't the Keelynet crowd once leaping on this as an anomalous phenomenon, the "firefly circuit" I think it was?) For that matter, similar things might be done with long lengths of fiber optic cable. My earlier idea (weeks ago) was that the xmit/rcv atom-pairs are in instantaneous 'entanglement', but that ALSO there are electromagnetic waves flying between them. Therefor, one transmitter-atom could illuminate a number of other receiver-atoms, but when one of those other atoms finally goes "snap" and experiences a photon-like event, the transmitter-atom then tells all the other receiver-atoms, "never mind", and they must lose their partial-photons at the same instant that the receiver-atom has aquired one complete photon. We still would have "wavefunction collapse", but it would be associated with the instantaneous communication between entangled atoms. (More like Bearden's phase conjugate mirror ideas.) If this is how things work, then light would travel at c, and waves would have wavelength, but there would also be an instantaneous "entanglement signal" which follows the waves, bounces off mirrors and is deflected by lenses, etc. High speed choppers would alter the entanglement communication channel between atoms, and might make the in-transit light waves vanish from space and their energy be restored to the transmitting atom (or might make the receiving atom lose its priority in the queue, and some other atom being illuminated by the same wavetrain would then have a chance to build up resonance and grab a quantum of EM vibration.) Why would EM work like that? Well, it certainly isn't any more bizarre than Copenhagan Interpretation and Schrodinger's Cat. It requires that all "resonant" atoms be in instantaneous communication, like a computer network, where the atoms use the fast channels to "agree" to produce the illusion of energy conservation, and to produce the illusion that particles are being exchanged at velocity c, at the same time that the atoms are are responding to waves of "field vibration" which propagate at a finite velocity. It's QM based on resonant circuits rather than on particle exchange. I vaguely remember something about a "delayed choice Aspect experiment" where similar things occured (where light waves in transit would seem to be expunged retroactively when the shutters were changed.)

Apparently it's pretty easy to slip into the more normal way of thinking about this. According to RS's idea, while the underlying cause and effect of EM transmission may occur instantly, it's effects, at least all practical direct effects, are still "propagated" at c or less, and most conventional descriptions and formulas should still hold. > Rather than using light, I wonder what would happen with electrical pulses > in long spools of coax cable?

I think we are talking about what is the real nature of a fundamental jump of energy quanta through the *void* between two elements: a pure transmitter and a pure receiver. In a cable, these elements are molecules apart in a long chain of trillions of links where each element becomes a retransmitter after receiving, and that would completely smear these results out the perfectly conventional. We can't time-slice light speed a molecular distances to see what's happening. Sansbury used 29 and 34 feet of sort-of vacuum: air. On the NG, someone wants to try to replicate Sansbury with optical fibers, but RS thinks that they can't be coiled and need to be straight. I even think he's coming up a little bit short here - I think it does need to be in a vacuum, or at least just air. Even air may be smearing the results a little bit. I think they should really only want to look first at the case of two discrete elements communicating through air/vacuum. > My earlier idea (weeks ago) was that the xmit/rcv atom-pairs are in > instantaneous 'entanglement', but that ALSO there are electromagnetic > waves flying between them.

I don't know about that. I still think it might just be simpler to eliminate all the middle-men. That seems to be Sansbury's approach. A skeptical objection that seems to have people on both sides scratching their heads a bit is that you can point a telescope at a star and immediately begin seeing light. They say that if Sansbury's right, you'd have to sit behind your telescope for 26 years, for instance, to see light from Vega since your telescope was 'off' all the while 26 years worth of light was flying towards you. I think this might have something to do with a steady state source versus pulses. In fact the part of Sansbury's experiment that worked best was when he closed the previously open gate on the photodiode just before light hits it, and he still gets a good 50% light signature! But if Sansbury's right this *has* to be making its presence known all over the place in some way. Maybe the light from Vega is just infinitesimally dimmer when you first start to look at it, and if you stared at it for 26 years, it would slowly come up to full brightness. Or maybe - what if it wasn't really made dimmer by this effect, but was being made to carry less energy by being down shifted towards red, and the amount of this "shift" was proportional to the distance between the emitter and receiver. :) Here's Sansbury's web site again: http://www.bestweb.net/~sansbury/ - Rick Monteverde Honolulu, HI From vortex-l-request eskimo.com Sat Oct 23 04:08:07 1999 Received: (from smartlst localhost) by mx1.eskimo.com (8.9.1a/8.8.8) id EAA30176; Sat, 23 Oct 1999 04:07:26 -0700 Resent-Date: Sat, 23 Oct 1999 04:07:26 -0700 Message-ID: <00a301bf1d4e$d6796dc0$da8e1d26 fjsparber> From: "Frederick Sparber" To: Subject: Re: Running GEET on Biomass Date: Sat, 23 Oct 1999 05:04:15 -0700 MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit X-Priority: 3 X-MSMail-Priority: Normal X-Mailer: Microsoft Outlook Express 5.00.2615.200 X-MimeOLE: Produced By Microsoft MimeOLE V5.00.2615.200 Resent-Message-ID: <"DyOEf1.0.LN7.kRP4u" mx1> Resent-From: vortex-l eskimo.com Reply-To: vortex-l eskimo.com X-Mailing-List: archive/latest/31228 X-Loop: vortex-l eskimo.com Precedence: list Resent-Sender: vortex-l-request eskimo.com Status: O X-Status: Ed Wall stated that PP ran the GEET on " 20% Crude Oil-80% Battery Acid".

Paul told me that it finds it's own center. From what I understand, GEET used to use pieces of 1/16" twisted wire on each fitting at the ends of the inner chamber to help center the rod. They also welded tiny knobs on three sides on the ends of the rods to keep it centered vertically. I don't know if they do this anymore. When I spoke with Paul at the last show, he said that they had learned that it will actually find it's own center and that this "manual" centering is unnecessary. I have never used anything to center the rod personally, but perhaps it would make a difference. If the rod moves too far to the end of the chamber nearest the engine intake, then I would imagine it could inhibit the fuel flow quite a bit. I've thought of centering it with various sized springs inserted into the end bushings. Please experiment with different centering methods and let me know if you find anything that makes a difference for you. -----Original Message----- From: Ed Wall To: vortex-l eskimo.com Date: Saturday, October 23, 1999 8:41 AM Subject: Re: Running GEET on Biomass >Frederick, > >Yes, it would.

You would have laughed your steel rod right off if you had been around when I was building my CNC device "kit" that I got from some hillbilly outfit in Arkansas for $700. Bill Beaty came over and took a look at it, and can tell you what kind of Erector Set piece of work it was. I pretty much knew I had made a mistake when, after signing all the covenants and disclaimers, etc., I called the customer service number about something quite minor, and the woman shrieked "WE MAKE AN EXCELLENT PRODUCT!!!" I could hear dogs barking in the background, and babies crying. Lets face it, for a lot of us who are attempting to do things independantly of the major corporations, life itself is very often an uphill battle. Getting even some production model engines from Ford or GM to work reliably is not always easy. My hat is off to Pantone and any other "lawnmower machanic" just for being crazy enough to try it. There is a possible explanation for the magnetism however, that links together the behavior of several devices, and makes me think that maybe Pantone actually has something. First of all, the George Wiseman people at Eagle Research have reported the discovery of an "electrically charged steam" that they say is developed between the plates of the BG generators. They are convinced that this steam is responsible for the anomolous combustion results of Brown's Gas as opposed to normal H2 O2 gas combustion. They are asking for ideas on how to isolate this steam from the H2 and O2 gases. The Ranque/Hilsch Vortex tube and the Potapov device may be producing this type of steam, as well as some of the cavitators, simply by rotating water molecules up to a speed whereby they can capture free electrons and hold them in a condensed charge within a mini-vortex. It could well be that simply running a charged gas around an iron bar would magnetize the bar just as readily as running a DC current through an insulated coil wrapped around the bar. It may be that the electrical charge gathered in the gas is what is responsible for the engine's ability to combust more thoroughly the garbage that is run through it. Just a thought. Electrifying Times Magazine is currently running the Pantone offer as well as reporting on a good number of other advances in the electrical/hybrid vehicle market. They are also featuring a story on BLP. The URL is: http://www.teleport.com/~etimes/ I highly recommend this magazine. Knuke Michael T.

I don't know whether or not Mills claims that they should be, but he had to go to a lot of trouble to document them in his gas phase cells running at much lower temperatures. I wonder if any hot fusioneer has asked Mills whether or not he thinks his EUV lines could be seen in hot fusion plasmas. Michael, what are those EUV spectroscopes used for in hot fusion? And is the term EUV used for the same region of the spectrum that it is in astrophysics, i.e., roughly 100 nm to 10 nm (1000 Å to 100 Å)? Mitchell Swartz wondered what journals hot fusioneers read if they don't read FUSION TECHNOLOGY. So do I.

I went to one called Whirlpower. There were some drawings of a tank and some structures in it which appeared to be means to either stir the water or get energy from the water. My understanding, from posts on the matter, is the inventor feels wobbling or sloshing somehow makes more energy. There are a number of vortex fluid actions that can be seen in smoke tunnels, cloud action, votex from rotor tip of helicopter. Some studies mentioned by Martin Gardner, who has written in the past for Scientific American indicate left or right spin of vortex from water draining out of tank takes the direction of the vortex caused by filling and the water can exhibit this ... go the same way effect for several hours. If the water has allowed to be still for longer than this the vortex can go either way. Some simple kitchen sink and pan tests... with dye to see spin indicate the water spins the longest with smooth sides, no objects in the flow and a smooth even swirling. The wobbling can be induced in a number of ways, by fluid, by irregularity of the sides of the chamber and by manually tipping. After the slosh or wobble has been established it can tend to get bigger, all by itself, with the pan set level. In all cases, maybe 20 slosh trials and 25 smooth trials the slosh was more lossy... which stands to reason. I may have it wrong, the pictures were not very clear to me exactly what the members were that were in the fluid tank as depicted on the site. So far, no object, ring, paddle or rod, smooth or not HELPS the swirling.... all exhibit impediment, slosh or wobble slows the swirling down even more rapidly. As I understand it NOAA has some good fluid flow models Hope we get some better pictures at the site, but so far I cannot see how added items and non smoother flow will HELP the flow??. It seems the non smooth flow takes a longer path and the lift and drop of slosh uses up more and damps more of the nergy. In any event you have to lift and-or stir water or the air above it to start this happening, smooth or sloshy ... as it runs out the bottom you have the energy of the drop... but, of course you had to lift it... unless it fills with rain, then it is powered by the sun. If you don't let it drain to make a swirl.... then you have to add energy, with paddles or pumps or rotation or the whole tank ... and any tubulence or slosh or impediments slow the water, I will have to guess it is expressed as a very mild heating.

The simple spectral Series of can be treated using a numerical series: 1+2+3.........+n = n(n+1)/2 For example, if you arbitrarily give n a value of 150 possible electron energy levels there are 150(150+1)/2 = 11,325 possible discrete lines that can occur, fractional orbits or not. Set n to equal 5 and draw the 15 energy transition levels on a piece of lined paper to see the series groups.

The claim is that the time needed to accumulate to a detection event is proportional to distance. This equates to the speed of light for "photon= s" in a general sense. The implication is that nothing flies across either = the solar system or the street, i.e., we don't need photons. Sansbury thinks= photons hurtling through the void is a concept in violation of Occam.

Suppose an atom emits a quantum of light. According to conventional QM,= that light travels as an expanding spherical wavetrain. Think "glass onion." If a distant atom absorbs it, then a QM-event occurs wherein the entire wavetrain, everywhere in the universe, winks out of existence= simultaneously. The wavetrain could be light-years in diameter, yet if that wavetrain is associated with just one photons-worth of EM energy, then the whole wavetrain must be absorbed by the atom which ate the photon. ( This is simply the well-known Bell/Aspect/EPR stuff, where 'wavefunction collapse' must be instantaneous when the photon interacts at a point in space. )

Jim O. wonders:

I have been puzzled for many months wondering why the "well-kno= wn Bell/Aspect/EPR" result cannot be utilized to transmit messages FTL. = It would appear to me that all that needs to be done is set up a mutu= al (xmtr-rcvr) precoding scheme wherein the probability of detections cou= ld be set to the binary encoding 0 percent =3D 0, 100 percent 1 as per= the following explanation derived from a file I have on the topic, whi= ch proceeds thusly:

Begin quote: -----------------------------------

Let us try to reflect a single photon off a half-silvered mirror i.e.= a mirror which reflects exactly half of the light which impinges upon i= t, while the remaining half is transmitted directly through it (Fig. A= ). Where do you think the photon is after its encounter with the mirror -= -- is it in the reflected or in the transmitted beam?

Fig 1.

It seems that it would be sensible to say that the photon is either = in the transmitted or in the reflected beam with the same probability. Th= at is one might expect the photon to take one of the two paths choosi= ng randomly which way to go. Indeed, if we place two photodetectors behi= nd the half-silvered mirror in direct lines of the two beams, the photon wi= ll be registered with the same probability either in the detector 1 or in t= he detector 2. Does it really mean that after the half-silvered mirror t= he photon travels in either reflected or transmitted beam with the sa= me probability (50%)? No, it does not ! In fact the photon takes `two pat= hs at once'. This can be demonstrated by recombining the two beams with t= he help of two fully silvered mirrors and placing another half-silver= ed mirror at their meeting point, with two photodectors in direct lines = of the two beams (Fig. 2). With this set up we can observe a truly amazi= ng quantum interference phenomenon.

Fig 2.

If it were merely the case that there were a 50% chance that the phot= on followed one path and a 50% chance that it followed the other, then = we should find a 50% probability that one of the detectors registers t= he photon and a 50% probability that the other one does. However, that is n= ot what happens. If the two possible paths are exactly equal in length, th= en it turns out that there is a 100% probability that the photon reaches t= he detector 1 and 0% probability that it reaches the other detector 2. Th= us the photon is certain to strike the detector 1!

It seems inescapable that the photon must, in some sense, have actual= ly travelled both routes at once for if an absorbing screen is placed in t= he way of either of the two routes, then it becomes equally probable th= at detector 1 or 2 is reached (Fig.3). Blocking off one of the paths actual= ly allows B to be reached; with both routes open, the photon somehow kno= ws that it is not permitted to reach detector2, so it must have actually fe= lt out both routes. It is therefore perfectly legitimate to say that betwe= en the two half-silvered mirrors the photon took both the transmitted and t= he reflected paths or, using more technical language, we can say that t= he photon is in a coherent superposition of being in the transmitted beam a= nd in the reflected beam.
