There is a saying, "Those who fail to remember history are doomed to
repeat it." This is most certainly true and the topic we were
discussing is a prime example of this. Having gone through a nuclear
engineering program and Rickover's Naval Nuclear program which, by
definition, covered all of modern physics AND the practical
application of same, there was no mention of many foundational works
including Maxwell's vortex model or LeSage's theory. Many people
rediscovered these again & again giving them new names but its the
same thing.

While it is good to think for yourself and not! blindly follow what
others tell you there are very few who deliberately seek to deceive.
Most truly and fervently believe what they are saying. It's ingrained
and they actually feel slighted if anyone dare challenge those
beliefs. However, many times its not the hard science (i.e. the
actual data set and results) that disputed, its the soft or meta-
scientific interpretation of these that is. If anyone actually claims
that the results of an experiment which have been independently
validated by repetition 'is wrong' the burden of 'proof' falls to them
to prove their point, by hard reproducible data. The problem with much
of more modern science is that many experiments are no longer being
independently validated, they are accepted by fiat', that is to say,
by just followup analysis. Then there is the flip side to this,
experiments that beg to be validated and no one bothers (such as
Majorana's shielding tests) and are likely to be dismissed as a fluke,
especially if the results reported do not fit within accepted norms.

This discussion was a good example, the equations are generic and
sound, what was challenged was NOT those equations but the values of
the model's parameters. What is rather ironic is, the values of those
parameters were derived from two measured and verifiable values, net
heat output and big G. Further, once derived from these the very same
values predict and match observed behavior of a third totally
different aspect that, while predicted by the model, is not part of
expected behavior. That these values might lead to having to
abandoning the idea that massiveness of matter as manifested by
inertia is an inviolate primal property and perhaps, instead, could
be a result of a process very similar to electromagnetic braking.
This is simply too radical of a notion to be contimplated seriously.

Anyway, contrary to what some want to believe, I do not think the hard
science is wrong, just that how much of it is interpreted seems
insane, such as the 'concept' of virtual entities, Schrodinger's
cat, ... etc.

Dear Paul: For over a century, Albert Einstein has been considered—by
the naive and the biased—to be at the height of intellectual
thinking. Doing follow-up experiments is nice, but often only show
similar results in a WRONGLY DESIGNED experiment, like M-M. If a
"scientist" manages to get other scientists to think that he's very
smart, it is much easier for those scientists to just accept... the
"far out" thinking of another rather than to question everything.
Sadly, things are thought to be more 'intellectual' if they are hard,
and even counterintuitive, than clear and intuitive. When Einstein
cheated and extrapolated the angle of bending of the moons of Jupiter
to, instead, be the size and mass of the Sun, he so... snowed the
surprised physicists that they soon worshiped the ground that he
walked on.

The Law of the Conservation of Energy is far more basic than SR or
GR. SR, clearly, violates that law. No exhaustive new testing is
required to prove that the LCE has been violated. Over a year ago, I
devised a simple dropped object experiment to measure the kinetic
energy of two equal size balls of different weights. Using Coriolis's
1830 equation, KE = 1/2mv^2, I was able to 'predict' the height of
drop of the lighter ball that would match the KE of the heavier ball.
But Coriolis's formula did not correctly predict the height of drop—
proving that the equation is WRONG. My experiment only costs about
$40.00 to perform. I even proposed to MythBusters that they perform
the experiment to prove that the textbook KE equation is wrong. But
MythBusters doesn't care to do so, because they have used the old
formula to calculate the 'g' forces of a plane crashing into the
ground. Of course, their calculated 'g' forces were wrong...

Science is all screwed up, because there is too much EGO preventing
anything from being questioned. I can generalize from that, and
conclude that 25% of the technical stuff being taught is universities
is WRONG. So, getting most college degrees isn't worth the paper that
they are printed on! — NoEinstein —

I always top-post my replies;
the rest is simply misc.addendum.what.I.writ.today.

it's funny, because you glom onto Newton's/Einstien's photon, but
that is exactly the interpretation of the (merely instrumental) photo-
electrical effect that supposedly alleviated any need
for an aether; did they give E. the Nobel, just to validate N.?...
well,
whether there was any conspiracy (other than being at the Swedish
Royal Palace, together), it certainly has made Newton's day -- and
the Second (Secular) Church of England!

thus:
Finally, note that, in a sense, the whole world is going a)
nuclear, and b) into space, while we are essentially frozen
into '50s and '60s techniques in these crucial frontiers.  (While some
folks dither about Iran's nuke-weapons policy, they are rapidly
achieving a full-scale nuke-e and process-heat capability
for industry & infrastructure.)

thus:
I don't get his notation, either, but
he must be trying to insert his "internal momentum" ****
into some sort of mathematical form.

so, when he patents his warp drive,
he'll just have to be careful about travel "in" time --
and messing with his mama, before he was conceived!

thus:
is ten to the 500th power, like,
longer than the volume of Known Universe Total Quanta?

thus:
the clocks are distorted by the curvature that was demonstrated
by Aristarchus, and surveyed o'er Alsace-Lorraine by Gauss
(with his theodolite .-) yes, time is not a dimension, or
it is the only dimension, whereby we observe the others (Bucky's
formulation).

not only was Newton's law actually found by Hooke, but
it was derived directly from Kepler's orbital constraints (and,
Kepler thought that Sun was perhaps magnetic on planets,
which may-well turn out to be more accurate than "gravitons" --
as long as you get rid of Newton's silly corpuscles, "photons" --
and his platonic ordering of the planets has alos proved
to be more-or-less correct (if I could find that article,
that gave a formula that was effective for all moons, as well).

BTW, use quaternions for special rel.,
which shows the uniqueness of the "real, scalar, inner product" time/
dimension of Hamilton.
