Haha yeah and I told you that when it exists in more than just the minds of Lazar fan boys than I'll give it to you
Me and Gariac work for Dennis at Indian springs so we know there's no way Bob did.

Also where's S-4?

That's what I never understood with bob, that became one of his many undoings but why bother making up another base when at the time Area 51 wasn't as big of a deal as it is now so he could have just said they keep the saucers in a hangar at Area 51. Ah well who can understand the mindset of an idiot.

You have it backwards. You have to prove everything Bob Lazar said is true. He has a piece of element 115. All he has to do is hand a sample to a lab and the case would be closed.
It had been decades. He hasn't produced one bit of physical evidence to prove his case.
Bob was a photo tech at LANL. He had a photo lab in Vegas. That is about all that is true.
oh no i don't. i only have to prove that his science was plausible or proven. i have done so. see; no matter how one views issues like his ability as a gearhead or whether he performs personal hygiene to everyone's satisfaction or not. none of that has any bearing on the science theories he put forward. on the other hand the articles and other cites i provided prove his science was real or highly plausible.
i don't have to prove everything he said was true. most of it has nothing to do with whether the core of his claim about anti-gravity is real or not.

Call me crazy, but I have a hard time accepting scientific theory from a person who hasn't mastered capitalization. Just sayin'...
Along the way, Zvi, John Joseph and Henrik, thanks to the time-honored method of “just staring at” the loop integrand provided by unitarity, also stumbled on a new property of gauge theory amplitudes, which tightly couples them to gravity. They found that gauge theory amplitudes can be written in such a way that their kinematic part obeys relations that are structurally identical to the Jacobi identities known to fans of Lie algebras. This so-called color-kinematics duality, when achieved, leads to a simple “double copy” prescription for computing amplitudes in suitable theories of gravity: Take the gauge theory amplitude, remove the color factors and square the kinematic numerator factors. Crudely, a graviton looks very much like two gluons laid on top of each other. If you’ve ever looked at the Feynman rules for gravity, you’d be shocked that such a simple prescription could ever work, but it does. Although these relations could in principle have been discovered without unitarity-based methods, the power of the methods to provide very simple expressions, led people to find initial patterns, and then easily test the patterns in many other examples to gain confidence.

But that's what you've got to look at, say if the existence of these facilities, or the existence of his academic records they would give you credibility.

You're not an engineer. This is obvious. You can read all sorts of crap in real scientific journals, but that doesn't mean you can exploit that technology. Real life is way harder than doing something in the lab.
Scientific American has been a crappy magazine since the mid-80s when the ownership changed.
Besides, we WERE talking about Lazar. If you want to talk fantasy physics, perhaps their is a more appropriate forum.
Don't get me wrong, that article does not affirm that gravity and the strong force are identical in the real world or even that if you manipulate the gluon field a certain way you get a long range gravity force. but it does say that mathematically they appear to be identical in a respected award winning scientific model. but it is support for the *possibility* that it may be that way in the real world. the reality of the model must be tested.

Scientific American may be as you say but as usual the article isn't the origin of the subject. A paper and the research that lead to that paper are. and they won a Sakurai prize in Theoretical Physics for it. Scientific American's bone fides have nothing to do with it.
that is an ad hominem logical fallacy. a some times useful debate tactic (if your debate opponent or debate judges don't call you on it) but it is not one based on sound scientific principles.

I gather you did not read the above post where i said this:

I know that models do not always have an exploitable real world analog. i know that even those that do may be extremely difficult to work out.
i suspect this case may be a bit easier because of prior art in legit science research (such as at the ESA) and also in the fringe science category all have a locus centered on certain protocols. there have been a few exceptions but by and large they all follow the same general tactics materials and so forth.

as i said earlier they are not my primary concern. this is because what Lazar said about the science is testable while the credentials can be muck raked. As to credentialed scientists. scientists are famous for their ability to often be wrong. i have already laid out a powerful case for Lazar's science claims. if he was right his credentials do not matter.
if your scientists said there was no element 115 they were wrong. if they said no stable isotope was found they would be leaving out the fact that stable atoms were not looked for in the experiments. If they believe there cannot be a stable isotope of element 115 they may be right but they also may be very wrong because element 115 was more stable the heavier it was. if they said gravity and the strong force are not related they were wrong.
