I assume you can appreciate the irony in these two sentences.
Statistically, the more the better. In terms of time well spent, that is not necessarily the case. And when it comes to devoting time to hunting for things which we have excellent reasons to assume do not exist outside of some guy's imagination, the less time spent on it the better.
My objection is that there are clearly many hundreds of thousands, if not millions, of people who have the capacity to do a serious study of Rodin's claims and either present their findings as clear scientific results or develop some kind of exciting commercial device to make use of them. A small but significant fraction of these will have come across these claims at some point over the last 15 years, and been in a position to do some simple but substantial tests. Not a single one has done it. How is this possible?
I'll tell you what's worthwhile. What's worthwhile is any effort to divert people from blind faith in this kind of populist over-hyped gobbledigook with fan sites all over the web (don't try to tell me there's a shortage of interest in this crap), and get them interested in something that's actually not completely fictional instead.
Reality is seriously underrated in some quarters, it seems.
I will – it's quite amazing. I never saw anyone spend so much time insisting that they can't be bothered and they don't know what they're talking about but their opinion must be heard.

Do you speak Tamil? If not, please also be sure your opinions are also heard in discussion forums on the subtle wordplay of notable Tamil poets.

Why are you spending so much time "subtly" berating me? i understand you think im an idiot, but why put so much effort into it instead of just calling me an idiot and moving on?
There is value in exploring electromagnetic toroidal mechanics

...i like you too boba We just communicate in different ways
Indeed. Most of what I understand has come from having my ideas thoroughly questioned and being encouraged to see things from different perspectives. And – of course, most important of all – being encouraged to let go of ways of seeing or thinking that don't work.
i also feel there is value in learning how others see the universe, regardless of how they come at it. Some of my own biggest breakthroughs were domino effects of learning about someone elses perspective on the universe, and certainly not always in a solely scientific based process.

But you keep on at it regardless, that's cool. If any of it somehow turns out to be right (despite the fact of it all being very clearly wrong), you and all the other fans of his populist imaginary new age pseudoscience can all be heroes. That's fine by me.

That is probably because it does not exist. You seem to be suggesting that it is somewhat explored. References?
Do you just like to see me proclaim "dictionary abuse"? OK then, I will:

What you're really pointing at is 1. frequency and 2. amplitude.

Low and behold: A more efficient jet engine...

Yeah, well, Dale pond is still trying to get the Keely motor working 129 years later, so I suspect people will still be trying to get this thing to work in 129 years...that doesn't mean they will succeed, it just means they will waste 129 years that could have been used working on something more productive.
OS:Klimator:Main_Page - Viktor Schauberger Klimator OpenSource Project,
They are looking for investors, but I used to work for a company that made jet engine components, among other things, and I learned that while the concept of jet engine operation is pretty simple, the actual engineering for maximum efficiency is not that simple. Moreover the claimed efficiency improvement is from swirling the fuel and air together to improve combustion, but I hate to break the news to them that they aren't the first to think of that:
Vortex Technologies / Fuel Efficiency > Engines > New Jet Engine Design Offers 25% Fuel Efficiency Increase - A new engine developed by R-Jet is called an orbiting combustor-nozzle (OCN) jet.
The combustor is the section of an engine where fuel is burned. GE has been maturing TAPS combustor technologies for almost a decade, and rig tests this year on the GEnx TAPS combustor have demonstrated very promising results. Here's how the TAPS combustor works:
The key to TAPS is how air and fuel are pre-mixed before they are burned in the combustor. Air from the high-pressure compressor is directed into the combustor through two high-energy swirlers adjacent to the fuel nozzles. This swirl creates a more homogeneous and leaner mix of fuel and air, which burns at lower temperatures than in previous jet engine designs.
Of course there are secret or black programs, and in some decades we may learn what today's programs are just as we've learned about past secret programs after some decades have passed.

Arbitrageur, I can agree with you on hoaxers and liars. But I will hold out on the technology side and be open to whether there are secret black programs other then that you make very good points.
Thanks for posting that. About a year ago I was trying to see if there was any evidence of changing radioactive decay rates and I didn't find anything....that's the sort of article I was looking for. I'm not sure what it has to do with vortex mathematics, but since I posted a video of a vortex, at least my whole post isn't off-topic.

Why do you insist on dictionary abuse? What's wrong with the dictionary definitions? In this case the definitions in a thermodynamics textbook are probably more accurate than a standard dictionary, but in neither case do they define it as frequency.

First off, what do you think temperature is? Let's take heat for example...

Temperature and heat are two different things once you leave the realm of standard atmospheric temperature and pressure.
In some parts of space you can freeze to death in a temperature of a million degrees because there isn't enough heat to keep you warm. Hows that for a paradox?
Back to the topic of vortexes (or vortices, whichever you prefer), yes they can be very destructive. About 300+ tornadoes touched down in the eastern US about a week ago, one only a short distance from my parents house and it was very destructive indeed. Man has been known to imitate nature so what you say isn't surprising.

If only that were true.
Its all good
