Wow. Did I ever say he has a thermonuclear device in his car? What the hell have you been smoking?
Are you saying Bob's car runs on deuterium?
Am I? I don't see any such implication in my statement that you quoted. Are you jumping to conclusions for personal reasons?

Mr. Lazar presents a scenario which, if it is correct, violates a whole handful of currently accepted physical theories. That in and of itself does not necessarily mean that his scenario is impossible. But the presentation of the scenario by Lazar is troubling from a scientific standpoint. Mr. Lazar on many occasions demonstrates an obvious lack of understanding of current physical theories. On no occasion does he acknowledge that his scenario violates physical laws as we understand them, and on no occasion does he offer up any hints of new theories which would make his mechanism possible. Mr. Lazar has a propensity for re-defining scientific terms, and using scientific language in a confusing and careless way. For these reasons, I don't feel that Lazar's pseudo-scientific ramblings are really worthy of any kind of serious consideration.
Ah, I see. So, because his scenario violates accepted physical theories and is "careless" and confusing to physicists who don't understand it, he concludes that his "pseudo-scientific ramblings" are not worthy of serious consideration.
Well, aren't scientists supposed to discard theories whenever evidence arises to contradict and disprove them? Aren't they supposed to have open minds instead of latching onto theories that they merely accept? I'm not sure if you're aware of this, but the ratio of what physicists know compared to what they don't know can be estimated as 1:100.
They might only know 1% of all there is to know about physics, but when Lazar's model comes along, they admit it's a possibility, but then they totally dismiss it simply because it contradicts what they "know".
That's what gravity IS - a distortion in spacetime, at least according to general relativity.
General relativity, a theory that does not prove its claims with absolute certainty.

The person who "discovered" the DNA structure saw that in a dream too. And that "dream" he had was proven to be the building blocks of carbon based life on earth. Francis Crick Nobel Prize Winner his name is forever immortilised.
Dreaming is the unconscious mind at work and is a very powerful tool. I would say it happens to a lot of people.
Apart from the fact that I have also had formal training in electronics & computer sciences etc. Hence that is why my fed/gov classified within the industrial as a systems engineer/scientist.
Please read the link I provided earlier, it may cause headaches though it is only 44 pages long, just skip the math and read the text. Below is short synopsis of reading;
COMPACT OBJECTS IN ASTROPHYSICS
(etc...)

Once you can understand that, after taking some asparin you may find yourself "dreaming".
How often are people told to "sleep on it", when confronted with a difficult situation, or extended periods of study etc, the dreaming subconscious removes the "square box" confines of consciousness and controlled thought and allows our minds to expand.
I hope this helps you in the pursuit of truth.
