Reading scientific texts and sometimes the books of those who formerly believed it all but realised that there were glaring mistakes and worse.
All I've been encountered with in this thread is lies, fantasies and misunderstandings.
While reading your posts i felt exactly the same.
There is little reality to be found here.
I do try to help and if you stick around odds are i am eventually going to help closer to the truth.
Keep entertaining yourself with your belief in magic and delusions of persecution.
Magic? Why is it that so many pioneers end up dead
and why so many more have their reputations destroyed for questioning establishment views?
Why are so very many of them vindicated later on?
I, meanwhile, will concentrate on real crises.
You don't think access to ever cheaper energy could solve a majority of those crisis situations?

You need to do a little less feeling and a little more thinking.
True. The truth is usually not hidden very far behind the lies that are made to deny or obfuscate it.
Pioneers ending up dead? Now you have something concrete to prove. Show me some dead pioneers.
“Establishment views” are typically an accurate reflection of reality. Loonies have destroy any reputation they had as sane people by being loonies.
Such as?
Not the ones that bother me most. But yes I do think that cheaper energy would solve many world crises. But I also think that there isn’t such a massive conspiracy to suppress new energy sources and technologies.
I studied and work in the field of electrical engineering. I have technical knowledge and experience. You’ve read a couple of technical papers.

And that doesn’t make “free energy” any more real.
No, it isn’t. We don’t see successes because there are none, not because their creators are silenced.
Doesn’t it strike you as funny that the government / big oil would smack down Wade here so badly for trying to create a free energy machine, but now that he’s telling the whole world how they shafted him and exactly what their MO is, they’re not raising a finger?
First you might want to actually confirm “vacuum energy” and or the like and tap into it.
And yet people aren’t murdered because they develop alternative operating systems and programs. Hmm.
Assuming vacuum energy can even be harnessed worth a damn in the first place.

Is it enough if i keep on saying that i do not have a degree in electrical engineering of physics? Why do you think this matters? Why attack my credentials instead of what i am presenting?
My grandmother’s cat can stare at a page of Kant’s work for hours on end but that doesn’t mean it understands squat.
Which is what a discussion between me and your grandmothers cat will probably reveal in short order. Why don't we rather focus on the issues and would it help if i frequently admit that you do have a degree and that you should be far better informed than myself?
But I’ve just insulted Kant by comparing him to the authors of the work you’re touting.
By making these types of claims i would say your doing at least as much damage to your own credibility.
You need to do a little less feeling and a little more thinking.
I will take your feelings about this under advisement.
True. The truth is usually not hidden very far behind the lies that are made to deny or obfuscate it.
Sometimes it is in fact the polar opposite or just miles away.
Pioneers ending up dead? Now you have something concrete to prove. Show me some dead pioneers.
Well actually i am happy stating that as fact , without introducing any sources, and if you wish to dispute it please post some source material stating that scientist are not murdered for what they know and might tell.
“Establishment views” are typically an accurate reflection of reality. Loonies have destroy any reputation they had as sane people by being loonies.
A circular argument if i ever saw one. Sane people become insane by virtue of disagreeing with the insane claims of the sane?
Such as?
For instance. Von Mayer for the conservation of energy, Alfred Wegener for proposing continental drift, J.J Watson for proposing a kinetic theory of Gases, Anesthesia suppressed for so long, Eistein were attacked for his proposal of a photoelectric effect. There are many more examples but you can start with those.
Not the ones that bother me most. But yes I do think that cheaper energy would solve many world crises. But I also think that there isn’t such a massive conspiracy to suppress new energy sources and technologies.
You keep saying that but you cant even bring yourself to admit that efficient electric car technologies are being suppressed. Why should your opinion on vacuum energy be taken seriously when even battery technologies have you beat?
I studied and work in the field of electrical engineering. I have technical knowledge and experience. You’ve read a couple of technical papers.
Which is preventing me from being on side of reality how?
What you should be asking yourself is why you know so much yet still have such gaping holes in your knowledge.
When will you address the source charge problem
and how do you explain the fact that dipoles/batteries can power light bulbs without the aid of any circuits?

Thinking. Not feeling.
And being the polar opposite of the lie, the lie leads you straight to the truth.
A fallacy of negative proof. And you wonder why you have no credibility?
My grandmother’s cat could defy gravity. To our great amusement the little bugger would soar into the attic and hunt bats. Since you can’t prove that my grandmother’s cat has never flown, my story must be true. Do you see how silly you are now?
Not at all. People don’t intentionally “destroy your reputation” for challenging establishment views.
You destroy your own reputation in doing so.
For example, if I told you my grandmother’s cat could fly, you’d take me for a loony.
Ah, true.
I already explained about the EV1’s batteries. More than once, in fact.
Anybody can write a paper. It doesn’t make it the truth.
Gaping holes?
I’m not going the “source charge problem” because you don’t even understand it to begin with.
Show me a demonstration of that and I’ll try to explain to you how it works as shown, or if it doesn’t, why it’s a hoax.
Objection 3: although some books say that you have to have a complete conducting loop before a
current can exist, that is just another misconception. Electrons do not travel across the insulating
gap in a capacitor nor do they jump across the space between the primary and secondary windings
of a transformer. This is so even when the energy source is a battery; I have constructed circuits like
those in figure 2 that show that the lamp lights up briefly when the switch is closed. No matter how
the energy travels in those examples, it must be able to get through empty space. (It is true that if
you want to maintain a steady current in a circuit, then a continuous conducting loop is required.)
science.uniserve.edu.au...
In the battery, the Poynting vector is outward, indicating
the direction of energy flow. ~Note the sensitivity of this
result to the sense of the current through the battery.! In the
vicinity of the conducting wires and next to the positive terminal
of the battery, S is parallel to the wire. Perhaps surprisingly,
S is directed from the battery on both sides of the
battery. Along the resistor R, the change of direction of E
outside the resistor causes S to change as well, gradually
turning from parallel to perpendicular to the resistor axis
~and entering it!, at its middle point ~zero surface charge!.

It’s not my opinion.

You just find people with anti-establishment views and assume they’re right because they’re anti-establishment.
Actually i have no problem with establishment views that corresponds to observed reality and instead focus on researching their totally contradicting statements on some issues.
Good idea. That would cut down on the bull and on unproductive exchanges like this.
I can hardly wait.
Good thing nobody who I’ll ever have to prove my credibility to will care what you say.
And i suspect that is why you have a degree; people who do not have or can not defend their own point of view select the majority one as strength by numbers has always been the recourse of both the weak and the opportunists.
A fallacy of negative proof. And you wonder why you have no credibility?
I am just tired of doing all the sourcing work and i would like to post some sources reasons as to why you are questioning my views. If you do not wish to do so that's fine and people may decide who they wish to believe.
My grandmother’s cat could defy gravity. To our great amusement the little bugger would soar into the attic and hunt bats. Since you can’t prove that my grandmother’s cat has never flown, my story must be true. Do you see how silly you are now?
Well it's in fact quite reasonable to expect those in power to sometimes kill those that threaten their positions; it's certainly not reasonable to compare establishment sponsored violence ( the church anyone?) with flying cats.
Not at all. People don’t intentionally “destroy your reputation” for challenging establishment views.
YES , they do. Have you not read any history?
For peer review of their work.
You destroy your own reputation in doing so.
Not when you have hundreds of fellow 'scholars' who say the same thing. Why do you think people join establishments for anything but mutual defense of shared interests?
For example, if I told you my grandmother’s cat could fly, you’d take me for a loony.
Why? I can't prove otherwise so why waste time? What i would see if you regularly makes such claims and if my research can not reveal and substance i will just file it away for re-inspection at a later date.
You’re not calling me a loony because you’re afraid of it being proven that they do. You’re calling me a loony because cats can’t fly, period.
In my opinion the odds of running into a truly 'loony' person is quite low and i tend towards more specific analysis. Is the person uninformed, misinformed, lying, misrepresenting; that sort of approach is far more useful and it does not require any information to be dissmissed out of hand. I don't call people crazy, not that it's even supposedly allowed, but obviously i sometimes need to edit out what i do believe some people are.
Ah, true.
Rather obviously so and i wonder why anyone would pretend that our science establishments have a good record. If they were supremely insightful why do we take half a step back for every forward?
I already explained about the EV1’s batteries. More than once, in fact.
And i showed your claims to be patently false.
You either don't know what your talking about or you are misrepresenting information you were well aware of.
Anybody can write a paper. It doesn’t make it the truth.
Gaping holes?
The source charge problem
gravity
origin, if any, of the universe
origin of man/life on earth
solar system formation
I’m not going the “source charge problem” because you don’t even understand it to begin with.
Well when you one day admit that there is no credible accepted main stream solution you may feel free to apologise to me.

Yes, I have. What I see is people whose challenging of establishment views stands as a black mark on their reputation until they are vindicated. It does not destroy their reputation.
Just a century ago, the German Nobel Prizewinning chemist Friedrich Ostwald was still successfully blocking acceptance of the reality of atoms, while the contention of the great American chemist Phoebus Levene that DNA was biochemically boring held back the discovery of DNA's key role in genetics for decades. The Cambridge geophysicist Harold Jeffreys managed to do the same for the "ludicrous" idea of continental drift.
The scientific community's method of choice for dealing with awkward questions is still to wheel out the great and good. In September, a slew of Aids experts gathered at the Royal Society in London in an attempt to "close" the controversy over whether the epidemic was started accidentally by the African polio vaccination campaigns of the 1950s and 1960s. Whether they succeeded or not is still unclear - much less whether they are right in dismissing the idea.

Mainstream orthodoxy routinely resists novelties that later become accepted. Throughout the 20th century there are examples: Bretz's Spokane flood, McClintock's recognition of "jumping genes", Mitchell's insights into biological energy mechanisms, Woese's Archaea, and McCully's homocysteine. Only late in the 20th century did science reluctantly grant that acupuncture can have some analgesic effect, that ball lightning exists, that the kraken is not myth but the real giant squid, that it is not foolish to look for intelligent life outside the Earth, that 5000-year-old megaliths incorporate substantial knowledge of astronomy, that human beings inhabited the Americas long before the days of the Clovis culture, and that living systems can sense not only electrical but also magnetic fields. Indeed, it may well be that the suppression of unorthodox views in science is on the increase rather than in decline. In Prometheus Bound (1994), John Ziman has outlined how science changed during the 20th century: traditionally (since perhaps the 17th century) a relatively disinterested knowledge-seeking activity, science progressively became handmaiden to industry and government, and its direction of research is increasingly influenced by vested interests and self-interested bureaucracies, including bureaucracies supposedly established to promote good science such as the National Academies, the National Science Foundation, and the National Institutes of Health. Parkinson's Law, it may be, applies to science as to other human activities: no sooner has an organization become successfully established than it is by that token already an obsolescent nuisance."
Henry H. Bauer
Exactly.
My point being, you wouldn’t be dismissing me because you’re afraid of it being proven that cats can fly. You’d be dismissing me because cats can’t fly.
Such as when?
No, you didn’t.
You’re projecting.
What do you think my degree has to do with that statement?
Nope. You sure are hung up on that one, aren’t you?
Bending of space caused by concentration of mass.
The Big Bang.
Man evolved from primates.
s we see it today evolved form earlier forms of life.
The ultimate origin of life? Sure, we don’t know it. There are so many other things we don’t know.
Same as any other star’s system.
They key word being credible. To you. Considering your poor understanding, I don’t suppose much can be credible to you.

What you lack in credibility you make up for in persistence, I’ll give you that.

Your “professionals’” claims are junk.
Focusing on your misunderstandings without any actual intent to understand. It would be sad if it wasn’t so damned funny.
As you might not have noticed i employ only the claims from those who are actually professionals in the fields. This is not my opinions but the claims and contradictions that are being discussed by professionals in the varying fields.
Nor can I.
So when will you start addressing my sources and claims?
No, I have a degree because I intend to do something with my life, and my degree demonstrates the understanding I have of the concepts which I need to understand to work in my profession.
So you think doing something with one's life is based on studying the misrepresentations of others while studiously refusing the address the contradictions?
E.g. you can’t be an English teacher without speaking English.
You can in fact teach what you do not understand thus passing on your ignorance and not helping your students to understand the problems they might later have to address.
Saying that something is true just because there is no proof that it isn’t will only convince fools.
You have not sourced a single claim so i will source what i like when i like until you start showing that you know how to check your ideas and facts against reality.
But it is more than reasonable to compare my imaginary reasoning to yours. Except to you, of course; you’ve demonstrated you’re unreasonable.
Well i demonstrated with sourced material that people do get killed for their beliefs.
I think it's far more unreasonable when someone like you make dozens of claims they never bother defending.
Yes, I have. What I see is people whose challenging of establishment views stands as a black mark on their reputation until they are vindicated. It does not destroy their reputation.
So more blatant lying from you?

Fact is the science establishment is all about protecting the views some at the top have decided as 'accurate' descriptions of observed reality
whoever says differently will be lucky to maintain credibility
and even luckier to live long enough to be vindicated by the changing ( the old do die out) times and people.
Not when you have hundreds of fellow 'scholars' who say the same thing.
It does not matter how many agree when they are wrong and history shows that this is in fact the norm.
For peer review of their work.
Like any racket those who extract funds from others credibility and protection is required and that quickly gets them to work together against rivals who are demonstrably upsetting the applecart that is their dogma. Peer review is joke and if it in fact worked we would not have as much trouble as we do.
But your not inspecting anything as that would have required you to refute the claim , WITH SOURCES, or admit that you were inaccurate.
I would in fact just have nothing to say and would be moving on without trying to 'prove' that a particular cat can or can not fly.
How many people died of heart attacks because 'doctors' and 'scientist' told us that Cholesterol was the telling factor? How many have died because of contaminated and toxic vaccines that have been killing , not saving, people for centuries?
I suggest that those who are still reading refer back to earlier posts to see that this person have either no understanding of that issue or are lying to protect something or someone.
It's a statement of fact when i say you are lying and misrepresenting as i don't believe that educated people such as yourself can not arrive closer to the truth by mere ignorant accident. To be so misinformed one must be trying.
What do you think my degree has to do with that statement?
Your stating the blatantly obvious and i just wondering why you think you need to do that.
Nope. You sure are hung up on that one, aren’t you?
And you are still avoiding it.
Bending of space caused by concentration of mass.
That is, in part, what gravity supposedly does but certainly not what it is: there is a reason we don't say that water is waves. You got it all backwards.
The Big Bang.
Well earlier you said that it was 'untested' and i can add that all the major claims have in fact been show to be inaccurate or not yet proven.
Man could not have evolved from primates as we have found modern human remains in geological strata that are far older than primates.
evolved from earlier forms of life
They can but in large part we just presume that they did. Can and must is certainly not synonymous.
That's accurate and we don't know where electricity comes from either.
They key word being credible. To you. Considering your poor understanding, I don’t suppose much can be credible to you.
I consider you to quite ignorant or outright lying so until you start employing sources to people i do have respect for your just going to have to go on denying everything in sight.
I provided two sources but once again you dismiss one based on who he is and not what he is saying while COMPLETELY ignoring the fact that the same claims are being made in the following source.
I don’t know, how long can you?
How long do you think you can go on avoiding a critical well sourced discussion on these issues?
If you want to see what persistence is stick around for a few more months and see what i do to people like yourself.
