What gives?

ok about the writing, what if the material that the characters are made of, like the actual composite material that the writing was made from (paint, etc..) causes an interaction with A1.
Rather than the design of the lettering.

Wow! A lot of good thoughts (finally) since I last checked in. It feels like this thread has been kick-started out of it's doldrums, though I still half-wish that there were two threads, one for those who want to ridicule the entire thing and another for those who want to work on it.

Then after that people would feel silly about the drone

You know I really believe something happened at Roswell
but I believe Isaac’s story is just that, a story
Well Done Isaac, one way or another, you sucked me right in

I'm not saying it's impossible, but consider giving someone who doesn't speak your language (lets say English for the example) an English high-level computer language and ask them to make something complex, like an information system for a library or an accounting package, WITHOUT the manuals, WITHOUT help, just plain old ingenuity - it smacks a bit incredulously to me that people would have worked it out well enough to have what appear to be fully functioning drones (aside from the fact they apprently de-cloak at times, so I guess that's an error).

I'm fine with that Moonking, but I'd appreciate it if you could explain something to me. Go back to the primer and load up the diagrams. Now, start increasing the magnification. You notice how the "font" keeps going down, down, down in size? It ultimately defeats the resolution of the copier, which was probably a non-commercial, limited edition model for groups of the CARET type.

I agree AA it seems that even at 200% the same thing occurs
Other than that, I found it quite remarkable, how minute the glyphs are,it can easily be presumed that the orginal was on an obviously massive scale. so the 'canvas' would be something like 20x20 if not more, plus it would need a camera suspended above it, i presume.
So that leads me to believe that the PACL team that created the Linguistic Primer Analysis(where the minute characters are displayed) had an evidently large amount of available space, proper lighting, superb cameras, and the financial resources to provide the various supplies needed to produce minute lettering in near perfect detail.

JAssuming that design gets cleaner as technology advances, and that the same thing would happen in an "alien" culture, I would expect a highly advanced machine to have a very clean design, like a perfect sphere, or cube, with no odd parts sticking out of it. Many, many UFO sightings have described smooth shapes -- saucers, tubes, spheres -- with no obvious appendages.

So assuming that the LAP is indeed an external device and not an internal mechanism of A1(the antigrav generator), one would wonder what are the measurements of the "small device". Isaac says S1 is small, so is the LAP a 'scale sized' picture? or is it smaller? hm.....

I thought I responded to this, maybe not. I'm wondering if the "drones" are human adaptations of bits of salvaged alien wreckage? I mean, we see in the CARET documents these rings that bear a striking resemblance to structures within the drones. Let's just get a little crazy and ramble about it a bit: what if this ring structure was most of the propulsion unit for the entire alien craft (like Roswell, for instance). Our scientists take a look at the atomic matrix within the rings and realize that they have *NO* way to duplicate it, no matter what they try. So, they make the closest approximation that they can and after an enormous amount of tinkering, they get it to "lift" a little bit. Eventually they get it able to lift, say, something like 10 lbs and they build a very lightweight structure to surround the "engine", complete with directional controls. These end up being our various "drones".
This would explain why the drones have a "human-built" quality to them and would explain why the CARET documents show the bits they do in the inventory review, as those are the undamaged components that they salvaged.
I've asked a certain question 3 times before without a comment, I'll ask again (this is my 4th)....why, if the "parts" we see in the PACL photos are black with white lettering, do the illustrations of the Primer appear black on white? Any guesses? What are the diagrams of? Were they retrieved from a "book" or are they an aspect of the ship? Are they controls? If so, why aren't we looking at photos?

Sorry, folks, but my head hurts from this Mandelbrot set called an ATS thread. I tried to keep reading, to participate, but I just can't go on . . . pity.
No one has completed a logical probability matrix for this potential earthshattering discovery. And no one has even started a CSI-type of analysis strategy or used basic investigative theory. In terms of data and evidence analysis, has anyone organized a study that begins with the simple and obvious, and works its way to the complex?
