Description:

Most subjects are presented excellently in many other books, encyclopedias, and web-pages. The presentations in this Domain werecomposed by a Theoretical Physicist, who felt that available sources were notstrictly scientifically accurate or not complete. Therefore, these articlesare different from most other sources, often containing unbearable amounts ofmath and logic support for statements made. This Domain is also unusualin not containing any advertising or promotional links. From its start in1997, this Domain has attempted to be a more technical accessory to astandard local Public Library. These articles were composed by a respected,logical, Theoretical Physicist, and they were not written by bureaucrats.Nearly all of the many thousands of religious articles included in thisDomain are previously published advanced articles by religious scholarsand Theologians which are not commonly available to the general public.They are traditionally only taught in Theological Seminaries for educatingMinistry. We present that religious information in an unusual way, where asmany as twenty different scholarly articles on a specific subject arepresented, to enable a reader to access many different scholarly perspectives,even from different religions. If you should have a question about an unusualsubject, such as Traducianism(which you quite possibly may personally believe) this may be where you should look. We believe that the Lord Provided each of us with a brain, whichwe think He wants us to use! So think about the various ideas and viewpointsthat respected scholars have presented about a subject, and then decidewhich are most valuable for You!!Nearly 100% Efficient -- Cheaper to use, save $2000 per yearEliminate most of your family's Carbon Footprint Build a $140 HG-4a Green heating device to heat your homeToday, virtually everyone around the world buys fossil fuels (Natural Gasor Home Heating Oil or even Coal) and they necessarily cause yetanother Global Warming Crisis effect in the process. Most Americanfamilies have to buy around $2,000 of Natural Gas or Home Heating Oil,each winter to heat their homes. But no one has ever told them thatthe fossil fuels that they buy do NOT contain any of the necessary oxygenwhich is necessary to oxidize the fossil fuel. During the winter,they will BURN the 5 tons of fossil fuels they buy, but then they need toobtain 27.5 tons of oxygen from the atmosphere to do it. Some ofthese people know that they will be creating carbon dioxide, and thereforecreating a Carbon Footprint of 27.5 tons. And some of them mayeven know that during the winter, they will create 27.5 tons of bramd newcarbon dioxide which then gets sent up into the atmosphere. Some,including Greta Thunberg, know that the carbon dioxide they produce byburning fossil fuels is PERMANENTLY sent up into the atmosphere, and sothey admit to having created a Carbon Footprint. But very fewof them know that just to heat their homes, they are PERMANENTLY eachremoving 47.5 tons of oxygen from the atmosphere, every year. Thisis a SERIOUS problem since we each want to breathe! Each year,we collectively REMOVE around 69 billion tons of oxygen from the atmosphere,just to burn fossil fuels to heat our buildings, and it adds up! Do you enjoy participating in wasting all that oxygen, every year, just towarm our buildings?A Carbon Cycle heating system. You could spend about $140 and investan hour of your time to enable more than a million Btus of energy bedumped into a discarded street garbage can to fully heat your home, andfor free! Since I have been doing this for the past 13 years,I have not needed to give the local Utility company $26,000 to buy NaturalGas to burn to heat my home! That $26,000 has stayed in my pocket andI totally heat my (fairly large) house for free! I have alsoavoided burning fossil fuel which would have sent 195 metric tonnes of brandnew carbon dioxide up into the atmosphere.Yes, there is a discarded street garbage can inside this cube of white foaminsulation. In the winter I fill it with decomposing cut lawn grassor other scrap organic material like shredded junk mail, such that theGlucose molecules can release massive amounts (1,000,000 Btus)of energy that the Sun had earlier invested into all those blades of grassin Photosynthesis (actually, 170,000,000 Btus of solar energy per acre, peryear) which I just want to capture to heat my home!This also eliminates your usage of fossil fuels to heat your home, andyour family's Carbon Footprint essentially disappears!Read MoreEach potential Corona-19 virus patient is now individually tested, inprinciple, hundreds of millions of them. This is an incredibly timeconsuming process. Worse, any of those millions of people could besneezed on the next day, so an entirely new set of tests is necessary,every day. Other than totally trusting the million of positive Corona-19patients to follow the follow the stay-in-home rules , wereally have no other way to know each of their Corona-19 statusesexcept to retest every one of them every day.There are 325,000,000 of us Americans, and we really have no reallygood way of knowing which of us are positive and which of us are negativeon any given day. Massive amounts of testing personnel and massive amounts of equipmentis required to do this, so the best we can hope for is to know if a fewthousand people are infected on any given day, and Corona-19 is so extremelycontagious that any or all of them probably should be re-tested on everyfollowing day. The best we can probably hope for is to control Corona. Few people seem to know that even theSpanish Flu which killed 50,000,000 in 1918, is still killing people today,more than a hundred years later!This situation might still be true of the Coronavirus a hundred years from now! Yes, enough people may eventually die,and others may survive and have some level of immunization for humanityto survive, but few people seem to be troubled by the fact that another80,000 people die of traditional flu ever year.Technology may already exist which may be able to eliminate nearly allof those Medical catastrophes.To a great extent, it is a variation of the Smart Phone! After several months, a few people are now starting to realize that the onlyreally useful idea will involve contact tracing (or tracking) the movement ofevery one of the billions of persons on Earth, to know who they had personallycontacted, specifically in getting so physically close to to be able to cough(or even breathe) on, or to shake hands with to physically contact. If andwhen we eventually do this, we will then be capable of learning who mighthave either picked up Corona or spread it.I find it interesting, and potentially useful, that billions of peoplehave Smart Phones, which they intimately live their lives around.I see that as existing technologies which might be used toward contact tracingpeople regarding Corona virus or other future viruses.On April 7, 2020, the US government admitted that only 320 of every100,000 people in the United States had yet been tested once. Thatstill leaves 325,000,000 Americans who have each not even been tested onceyet! In that same statement, they also believe that at least 1,000,000Americans have already tested positive for the Corona virus. AND NOONE HAS ANY IDEA WHERE THOSE MILLION INFECTED PEOPLE WENT TO ON THEFOLLOWING DAY. They want to believe that every single one of thosemillion people obeyed and stayed-in-home, but that is not remotelylikely. If even just 1% of those million infected Corona people had disobeyed, thenthere might now have been another 10,000 infected people wandering around.Haven't you wondered why thousands of newly infected people are detectedevery day, even with alleged stay-in-home? They weren't spontaneous . Therefore, to reallyknow the complete science, all those million of infected people should betested again on every following day. And, really, every one of the325,000,000 rest of us should be tested every day to see if we hadpersonally interacted with any of those million of infected people during theprevious day.Given Trump's attitude of trying to claim that there are onlyfifteen Corona victims and such, he is never going to allow thatextensive testing. or contact tracing, to happen. We are doomed.However, are you aware that Google tracks every one of the many millionsof web-sites that you ever visit? Google does that toward trying to knowwhat sort of products that you might be interested in buying from theirclients. The important detail here is that even you have built a massivedata base record, in cookies that they store inside your own computer, andalso in enormous data-bases that all of their IT web-sites collect and store.For the record, Google and many other giant corporations update all thatpersonal data on you, every day, actually, every minute. See the connection?Every time your smart phone either makes a call or receives a call, thereare data-bases which get updated!It would be rather simple for Google and hundreds of other IT corporationsto update a file regarding every single person on earth, billionsof us, regarding just who we talked to in the previous 30 days. IT expertscan quickly and easily identify the people who have tested positive forCorona. Better than that, they would easily contact trace all the contacts ofthose million positive people, to know exactly which of the 325,000,000of us Americans that they should pay attention to. Yes, if, for any reason,20 people telephoned me who were each Corona positive, it would narrowdown the potential new victims to possibly even include even me.Nearly all of this technology already exists!Notice that the millions of people (like me) who never telephone anystrangers and only relatives, the data-base regarding me and Corona wouldlikely stay very tiny. If a cousin had gone to a store and caught Coronafrom the hand-railing on a shopping cart, and she later called me, both sheand I would nearly instantly be scheduled for a Corona virus test. We bothmay likely learn, yes or no, well before either of us became symptomatic.We may both realize that we should take some time off from the factoryand stay at home until the 14 days was up. See the huge advantage in this?Do you realize how many billions of phone calls are made every day by5 billion smart phones? But good IT experts could immediately weed outcalls to or from businesses. The contact tracing of a trillion phone calls everyday could easily be repeated every day to contact trace the social actions ofevery affected Corona virus person, daily!If you are familiar with Typhoid Fever (which is not a virus but a bacterium)there are similarities. The cook who became known as Typhoid Mary, ahundred years ago, infected 51 people with Typhoid Fever. In the case of thecurrent Corona virus, we may have the equivalent of millions oreven billions of Typhoid Marys , each ready tospread the Corona virus. Fortunately, the Corona virus is not as deadlyas Typhoid Fever. But Corona seems to be amazingly effective at transferringfrom person to person, which is the reason our current crisis is soterrifying. When we do not actively socially use stay-at-home totry to control Corona, very suddenly we find that more than 640 workers at apork factory in South Dakota get the Corona virus. When no one triedto control the movements of people at Mardi Gras, we find that thousandsof people suddenly have the Corona virus. A single Corona infected woman inSouth Korea attended a Church service and infected over 5,000 people withthe Corona virus. Many other community spreads of Coronahave already been seen. Virtually every adult housing community has already had dozens of Corona deaths. A man who passedthrough a railroad station in New York infected many dozens of otherpeople.It seems obvious that the best possible course is to strictly monitor,contact trace, the movements of billions of people, else we have little chanceof ever controlling its spread.However, this modification of cel phones (and lap-top conputers) willadversely affect the privacy of civil rights of people.Even months ago, the companies that manufacture cel phones should havealready started to modify their products. The modification is rathersimple to do, and it mostly involves just adding an extra memory chip in every cel phone, where a permanent record of every telephone numberever called or received by that phone would be saved. Actually, sucha file or data-base could have a provision to self-delete after 30 days.Each cel phone owner who happened to be affected by the Corona virus wouldthen have available a file of every person he/she had ever called(along with the date and time of the call).The phone would also have three new LED lights, a red, ayellow and a green one.A new cel phone, with no file of calls ever made, would come with the greenLED lit. As long as that remained true, the cel phone owner would havean obvious (GREEN LIGHT) of not having the Corona virus. This greenlight status would even be updated every day. Thisperson could work anywhere or go to school or restaurants, and the greenlight would prove that he/she was virus free.Once he or she received a call or made a call to a person who is infectedwith Corona, his/her green light would turn off and the yellowlight would come on. That would not necessarily mean that he/she hadCorona, but that he/she knows someone who has or has had Corona. If he/shereceived/made many calls from such people who have been infected withCorona, then his/her now yellow light would indicate that some limitationson his/her work or movements would be appropriate.If he/she is actually tested for Corona virus and found to be positive,his/her phone would then change to having the red light turn on.A hundred years ago, we had just the one Typhoid Mary who was acarrier of Typhoid Fever. However, now we apparently have millions ofpeople who have already been tested as positive as being infected with theCorona virus. Until this new technology is now done and installed inall the billions of cel phones, we have no hope of ever contact tracing orcontrolling the future of Corona virus.Concurrently, we would enable data IT processors to be able to contact trace andtrack (nearly) every person who currently is believed as being positivewith Corona virus. The Medical community would be able to know wherethe actual positive tested people are, continuously.The phone modification could have a time limit effect built in. Aftera person who had communicated with many positive-tested people, hadstopped talking with those people for a period of 30 days (?), the phonemight revert to being a green phone again. Employment and social mattersmight then again become safe.Even something like attending a baseball or football game might becomepossible. One section of the Stands might only allow green patrons, whileanother, more restrictive section might permit yellow patrons. I don'tknow if red patrons should be allowed into the stadium.Read MoreGreta Thunberg and the Fridays for Future meetings have been wonderful for getting the wordout about global warming, but the Corona-19 virus has now endangered theattendees of those meetings. There is a way for us to operateeven better and more exciting FFF meetings than ever before! Each FFF attendee can now actively participate, by mowing their own lawnand bagging the cut grass and monitoring the chemical temperature whichgets naturally produced! If you have ever mowed your lawn grass and bagged it, you may have noticedthat within hours the decomposing grass in the bag gets very, very hot from anatural internal chemical reaction as the Glucose grass molecules naturallydecompose. This is actually simple chemistry. The Sun invests 170,000,000 Btus of solar energy to grow each acreof plants each year by Photosynthesis, making Glucose molecules to createplants. Energy is Conserved. So later all the dead plants still have that 170,000,000 Btus of energyin them when they later naturally decompose and disappear. I save andstore many millions of Btus of that solar energy from the cut lawn grassfrom my own lawn to totally heat this rather large house! This isnot any fossil fuel! It is the natural Carbon Cycle process.Scientifically, chemically, this is what happens. (1) The Suncreates heat energy by natural nuclear Fusion, which (2) travels all theway to the Earth. Then (3) the Sun's energy drives a chemical reaction wecall Photosynthesis. The Sun's energy combines with exactly 6 water andexactly 6 carbon dioxide molecules to create complex Glucose molecules(C6H12O6), which form all the plants inthe world, including lawn grass and weeds. We humans find it reallyconvenient that this Photosynthesis chemical reaction also creates 6molecules of oxygen, which we enjoy breathing! (4) All those plants growand live and eventually die. (5) Once they die, all that energy is still inthere, and the plants decompose. (6) As all those Glucose molecules die,they happen to just need exactly 6 oxygen molecules to come apart intoexactly 6 water molecules and exactly 6 carbon dioxide molecules.The glucose (C6H12O6) oxidizes aerobically[chemically combines with oxygen from the air] ( the 6 O2molecules) and therefore breaks down to create exactly 6 molecules of water(H2O) and exactly 6 molecules of carbon dioxide (CO2)(which is exactly what the Sun used up in Photosynthesis) and also (7)(this process releases all that energy the Sun hadinvested into the plants during Photosynthesis (really massive release ofenergy!). Then, (8) I collect all this energy to heat my homewith! This Carbon Cycle is a perfect process!Greta Thunberg wants to eliminate the need for fossil fuels.As a scientist, I have proven this replacement of fossil fuel with Carbon Cycle energy.On March 18, 2020, Fridays For Future told me thatthis house is now FFF US Thornton with me as Administrator of FFF Thornton group.For the past 13 years, this (large) house, in the cold winterclimate near Chicago has not needed to use any fossil fuel!It has been entirely heated by Carbon Cycle energy, heated really cozywith the cut lawn grass also seen in the photo! In fact,in 2007, I even removed the chimney that the previous furnace needed to use!If Greta or any other people from FFF (Fridays For Future)would get to Chicago, and visited theFFF US Thornton building we have in Thornton,Illinois, USA, they can see either or both of the twodevices I have used to totally heat this 11-room home for the past 13 years.I am not interested in selling anything but any visitor to the FFF US Thorntonhome can get a copy of the construction and usage instructions, to build theirown for about $100 total cost. Since 2007, I have kept this large housevery cozy, as I happen to like it that the room temperatures are about 78 For 80 F or 27 C. A lot of people think I am showing off but, no, I just happen to really like it when the house is really cozy.The Corona-19 virus makes me now request that you hold off visiting to see mydevices. When I first invented the HeatGreen 3a device in 2007, I renteda hundred folding chairs and then often welcomed around 70 people tocome and visit and watch the device heating my home. Now, the HeatGreen 4adevice is even simpler and cheaper to make, but due to the Corona-19 virusI prefer to provide you with internet instructions.It turns out easyto capture all that energy! For the past 13 winters, I have easilyheated my home with that chemical energy. This iscalled the Carbon Cycle.There are two obvious ways to heat your home or any building. One isthe common way of burning a fossil fuel (Natural Gas, Heating Oil or Coal)in a furnace to create fire and the heat youneed, but that requires a chimney since that burning process is only about80% efficient. It also causes you to create a Carbon Footprint due to allthe tons of brand new carbon dioxide you will chemically produce every winter.The other method is superior! It is based on a very natural processof the Carbon Cycle. I have very successfully used this method to heat my11-room home near Chicago, Illinois, USA for the past 13 years!For the Fossil Fuel 800-student classroom strike now going on atSt. John's College at Oxford University, we recommend a simple scientificexperiment to compare two identical rooms atSt. John's College at Oxford University, such as classrooms or dormitoriesor apartments. Consider selecting two identical small rooms that are 15 feetsquare. Here are the two analyses to evaluate.On a February day in Oxford, each of these rooms will require 10,000 Btuof heat for comfortable heating.We need 10,000 Btus per 24 hours or 400 Btus per hour. We need to burn 500 Btus per hour to provide for the chimney heat loss. Combustion of methane gas produces 55.5 Mj/kg, which is about 1000 Btu/lb. This will consume 12 pounds of natural gas per day for our room, as each pound of Natural Gas contains 1000 Btu of energy in it.We need 10,000 Btus per 24 hours or 400 Btus per hour. We need to decompose 400 Btus of glucose molecules per hour. This will consume about 0.05 cubic feet of mowed lawn grass per hour, or about 1 cubic foot per day. One large bag of lawn grass contains about 300,000 Btu of available chemical (heat) energy in it, so one large bag should last about a month (for this small room).Chemically, this is what happens. Millions of years ago, plants and animals died and got deeply buried in the Earth where oxygen was no longer around.Chemically, this is what happens. On sunny days the Sun invests amazing amounts of energy into a chemical process of Photosynthesis, 170,000,000 Btu per every acre in every year. The Law of Conservation of Energy ensures that all that energy remains in all the plants that are created during that Photosynthesis. During the most recent hundred years, we found those deeply buried Fossil Fuels and we brought them up to the surface of the Earth, where they could be chemically bound to oxygen from the atmosphere in order to burn in a furnace.When we burn Natural Gas, it creates fire that burns at 3,800 Ftemperature, but we only need 125 Fwarm air to heat the room. It is a wasteful process.Once the grass blades and weeds and trees and leaves die, the physicalstructure of the glucose molecules in the plants gradually decompose.The energy that the Sun had invested in each plant still exists. It ispossible to capture nearly all that energy. In this case, that energycan be released as 140 F air to heat the room we are considering. Itis important to stir up the material and to keep it damp andnear oxygen.The rate that the glucose molecules decompose depends on fourfactors: (1) water, (2) oxygen and (3) a small amount of eitherMesophilic or Thermophilic bacteria, and (4) temperature. If you rely onlow temperature and Mesophilic bacteria, the process occurs slowly (likeoccurs in Composting) and it may be difficult to extract the needed 400Btus per hour. You could rely on Thermophilic bacteria, and surround thedecomposing material with good thermal insulation, and the decomposing glucosematerial quickly rises to 125 F or higher, and it all decomposes morethan ten times as quickly, and it is very easy to capture the needed heat.The Decomposition process is essentially a 100% efficient processand no chimney is needed.The cost of the fossil fuel which needs to be bought and burned in a furnace is 16 cents/day or $5/month. The amount of brand new global warming created is 34.4 pounds per day or 1030 pounds per month or up to 5 tonnes per year.The COST of the mowed lawn grass which is decomposed is ZERO, or $0/month. The amount of global warming created is zero per month or per year.This simple demonstration experiment costs less than $200 of newmaterials from Home Depot. It will show that if St. John's and Oxford wouldchoose to use the natural Carbon Cycle to heat each of the thousands ofrooms on campus, it would be far less expensive than with the currentfossil fuel burning of Natural Gas. It would also eliminate all of the manythousands of tonnes of global warming that those burned fossil fuels arenow contributing to the atmosphere.In addition, if a large organization like Oxford University would stopusing Natural Gas to heat its many buildings, the Market for NaturalGas would become smaller. If everyone chose to heat their homes andbuildings with the natural Carbon Cycle decomposition, the entire worldmarket for Natural Gas may nearly disappear. Few people would want tobuy Fossil Fuels.You students at St. John's can nearly immediately end the global warmingcrisis IF YOU ARE PERSUASIVE ENOUGH! If you have not planned ahead withmowed grass, a wetted farmer's bale of hay or shredded junk mail or manyother organic materials works just as well.Please do this simple experiment. It has worked fantastically for thepast 13 years when I have fully heated my 11-room home near the coldclimate of Chicago, Illinois, USA, for free! (I have not even needed tobuy $26,000 of Natural Gas from a Utility company!)The complete instructions to build and use my device are included in http://mb-soft.com/public4/gretay.htmlE-mail cj@mb-soft.comWhat are your personal plans forthe year 2041? (just 20 years from now?)The millions of people who now produce petroleum arealready planning to no longer be in the petroleum business! Theyknow that it will not be long before they have dug up all thepetroleum everywhere on Earth!Several giant petrochemical companies have recently published importantPapers. They are the world's experts regarding petroleum and natural gas.The experts at Mobil Oil recently said (November 2019) that all of thepetroleum in the Earth will be completely found and used up (burned)by the year 2040. The experts at BP (British Petroleum) agree, but theythink that all of the petroleum will be gone by the year 2045. The expertsat Exxon agree with that 2045 assessment. The experts at OGJ (Oiland Gas Journal) also think that it will be all gone in 2045.No one seems to have thought that through.There are already about 4 billion cars and trucks on the roads. There willbe many more by then. At least 2 billion of those vehicles are daily onthe road now, burning up gasoline, diesel, or other fossil fuels.After we have completely burned up all the petroleum (in 2040), just wheredo you and those billions of other drivers intend to get your gasoline?Your vehicles will forever be parked. IF you still work in 2041, how do you intend to commute to work every day?Moreover, if gasoline has gotten so rare by then, just how do you expect toafford to buy available gasoline at maybe $1,000 per gallon? Will youever have to, or want to, or be able to, go to any store, to buy anything?Except for walk-in and bicycle traffic, will there be enough customers tomake sense trying to run any store?There are currently millions of workers that either assemble automobilesor make the parts that go into them. Just what are all those people goingto do for work in 2041? Farmers certainly are dependent on tractors andseeders. Even companies that weave clothing, just how will they get theirproducts thousands of miles to stores and customers? Just what kind offactories will then even still be possible after 2041? How will all thosemillions of jobs be done, or if they even will be needed?There are dozens of countries that maintain armies of millions of men.Without cars, trucks, aircraft, tanks or jeeps, how will armies be able tomove people around? On millions of bicycles? Future wars, beyond the year2041, may be amusing to watch. Those will be many millions of more peoplewho will not have military jobs.This all seems to suggest that after the year 2041, society might have to revertto the very small town format of the middle 19th Century. A school might be limited to a one-room schoolhouse with a dozen students and oneschoolmarm. A village might only support one shoemaker andone carpenter and one mechanic, and everyone might have to rely on bicycles.How could any Agri-Biz companies produce food for a million people (orthen haul that food to distant customers)? A local farmer might insteadgrow tomatoes for the residents of that village.It's hard to think of any businesses that could grow to the scale of modernmega-corporations. A few computer-centered businesses might be possible.The concept of life might become extremely different, and that's only20 years from now!Understanding Time Dilation due to Special Relativity.We should monitor the Lorentz-Fitzgerald Contraction effect ofSpecial Relativity rather than Time Dilation. It is the most obvious resultof Special Relativity.Because both forms of Relativity are dependent on gravitation, which is aVector process, they are both actually based on Vector (directional)effects. It is less obvious that time effects are directional (asTime Dilation certainly must be) where the directional effects of theContraction (physical) effect is more obvious.Time Dilation is the most popular aspect of Einstein's Special Relativity.The effect is easily seen, which certainly appears in a telescope but itdoes not actually have any real effects on what (or who) is beingobserved. In that, it is similar to the fact that all receding galaxiesappear red to us on Earth, due to the Doppler Red Shift Effect,even though none of those galaxies is actually red color!If we had telescopes that were a lot more powerful, we wouldimmediately see that the current understanding of Time Dilation is totallywrong! Say you had a really powerful telescope where you couldconstantly watch your good friend (Ogg) on a distant rapidly receding (at0.6c) planet of Siri. You would watch the effect of Special Relativity whichwe call the Lorentz-FitzGerald Contraction. As Siri daily rotates,when you watch him near the moment of Earth-rise, you would see him as(his true) 6 feet tall, and skinny-looking. A few hours later when Sirihas rotated part of a day, you are overhead of him, and you see that (obvious)Lorentz-FitzGerald Contraction in his body, where you see that he nowappears to be only 4 foot 10 inches tall, and (his true)pudgy-looking. A few hours later, late in his day near the moment ofEarth-set for him, you again see that he appears to be 6 feet tall (and very skinny)!You clearly see these (obvious) effects on his body.Since you saw it, do you really think that he actually starts out his dayas tall and skinny, and before your very eyes, he appears to become veryshort and pudgy, and his weight (mass) appears to go from 200 pounds down to160 pounds and back up to 200, and you watched his clock clearlydrastically slow down to 4/5 as fast (due to Time Dilation) and then hisclock speeds back up, twice every day? No, in actuality, he does notactually experience any of these things!As a real being on Siri, he remains 6 feet tall and somewhat pudgy, atall times. The perceptions of Special Relativity are only true foryou watching him from Earth, while nothing actually changes in his lifeon Siri. Special Relativity generates interesting perceptions, whilereality is not affected, whether in physical dimensions or regardingtime rate or mass.A Climate Change Crisis Solution - The Carbon CycleMathematical and Scientific Evidence of Climate Change - BurningFossil FuelsThere was never any human-caused Climate Change Crisis prior to 1850when Fossil Fuels were discovered. This is not a coincidence.Historical data on just how much of each Fossil Fuel (Coal, Petroleum andNatural Gas) was burned in each year since 1900 is known. Once theamount of each Fossil Fuel being burned in a given year is determined,then the biochemistry allows calculating of exactly how much chemically newcarbon dioxide was created in each year and from each Fossil Fuel. For example, Natural Gas is chemically mostly Methane, which is CH4. A ton of Natural Gas is therefore 3/4 ton carbon and 1/4 ton hydrogen. Whenthe carbon is burned (oxidized), it chemically combines with 2 tons of oxygenfrom the air to form 2.75 tons of brand new carbon dioxide (and a lot ofenergy). The hydrogen of the Methane also chemically combines withanother 2 tons of oxygen from the air to form 2.25 tons of water and somemore energy. Specifically, every ton of Natural Gas burned forms2.75 tons of chemically new carbon dioxide which enters the atmosphere, a lot!If your family burns 5 tons of Natural Gas each winter to heat your home,This is the source of about 14 tons of your family's Carbon Footprint. Each of billions of families could eliminate those 14 annual tons ofcarbon dioxide by heating their homes using the Carbon Cycle rather than byburning Fossil Fuelsto heat their homes. This alone could immediately (and permanently)eliminate as much as 20 billion tons of global warming, every year.All the historical data shows that by burning Fossil Fuels since 1900, wehave chemically added 924,000,000,000 metric tonnes of chemically new carbondioxide into the Earth's atmosphere.The concentration of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere is monitored andknown by the US government (SIO) at the South Pole. In 1900, weknow that 2,324,000,000,000 metric tonnes of carbon dioxide had been in theentire Earth's atmosphere. Today, we know that there are now3,248,000,000,000 metric tonnes of carbon dioxide in the Earth's atmosphere. Since 1900, we know that the concentration of carbon dioxide in theEarth's atmosphere has increased by 924,000,000,000 metric tonnes. This is not a coincidence.These two known scientific facts confirm that the actual source ofGlobal Warming is directly and singly from the burning of Fossil Fuels(alone), and that evidence is consistent for the entire historyof the past 120-year era while Fossil Fuels have been known.In fact, just this data alone proves that if we humans would simply stopburning all Fossil Fuels (including all vehicle gasoline, diesel fuel, Jetfuel, coal, petroleum, natural gas, et al), the Global Warming Crisis wouldimmediately end and the safety of human future would be improved!Prior to the year 1850, there was no significant Climate Change, as theconcentration of carbon dioxide in the Earth's atmosphere had been ratherconstant at around 280 ppmv for the entire 7,000 years of human civilization. We know that(and far more info) from the Russian ice core research in Greenland andAntarctica, where each year's layer of new-fallen snow contains accurateevidence of all the gases in that year's atmosphere.Even if all of humanity totally STOPPED BURNING ALL FOSSIL FUELS, it wouldnot actually solve our past sins . All thatextra 924,000,000,000 tons of carbon dioxide which we already have sent intothe atmosphere by burning Fossil Fuels during the past 120 years is going toremain in our atmosphere for thousands of years. But in recentdecades, we are so wildly burning Fossil Fuels that we must stopcontinuing to endanger our future. Just a hundredyears ago, it took us twenty years of burning all the Fossil Fuels we couldfind to send 20,000,000,000 tons of Global Warming up into our atmosphere. Now we do far more than that every year!Consider the data from just one recent year, 2017. During that year,we burned 3,670,900,000,000 cubic meters of Natural Gas. Doing thebiochemistry shows that burning that much Natural Gas caused us to create7,236,000,000 metric tonnes (or 8,102,000,000 short tons) of chemically newcarbon dioxide from chemically oxidizing that Natural Gas burned in that oneyear. Doing the same analysis and the biochemistry regarding thePetroleum we burned during that year, we find that we also created10,000,000,000 tons of carbon dioxide from burning petroleum during thatyear. Doing the product analysis and then the biochemistry of all theCoal we burned in 2017, the results are that we also created 5,000,000,000tons of carbon dioxide from burning coal during that year. Adding these three amounts up, we see that in 2017, we created a total of22,000,000,000 metric tonnes of (new) carbon dioxide that we sent into theatmosphere in that year, from oxidizing all three forms of Fossil Fuels. The US Government - SIO evidence at the South Pole show that in 2017, theamount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere increasedby 22,000,000,000 metric tonnes. This is not a coincidence! It is a mathematically and scientifically confirmed proof thatessentially all of the carbon dioxide that we added to the atmosphere in theyear 2017 came, directly from our insistence on massively burning Fossil Fuels.The more complete research shows that every year, the total of GlobalWarming (carbon dioxide) added to the atmosphere isdirectly due to us burning ferocious amounts of all three Fossil Fuels. (Some of the data is incomplete. The United States only beganits (SIO) South Pole research in 1957 and in many early years in theNineteenth Century, we only burned coal and then later, petroleum.)Some of the actualUS Government data of this Research, from my 2004 scientific Paper.The solution for this Climate Change Crisis IS a natural process,which we call the Carbon CycleIn order to scientifically prove a better alternative, I have also personallydone a 13-year experiment. Yes, we know about Solar Energy and WindEnergy and Hydroelectric Power, but we probably also need to realize that aneven simpler and less expensive energy source is available to each of us,which we call the Carbon Cycle. Prior to 2007, I bought $2,000 ofFossil Fuel (Natural Gas) from the Utility Company, every winter to burn inmy house's furnace to heat my own home in the cold climate near Chicago,USA, and as a result, in those previous 13 years (1994-2007),I had personally created and sent a total of (13 times 15) 195 metric tonnes ofcarbon dioxide up into the atmosphere.Then, in 2007, I totally stopped buyingall Fossil Fuels and for the following 13 years, I have used the verynatural Carbon Cycle to fully (and easily) heat my home (and for free!), (no longer needing to buy $26,000 of Natural Gas!). So, usingthe (natural) Carbon Cycle to heat my home for the following 13 years, I havesent zero tons of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere. Not onlydo I now have $26,000 cash still in my pocket (which I would have paid to theUtility Company for Natural Gas), but I also have avoided creating and thensending 195 tons of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere!The Carbon Cycle is actually rather simple. The Sun powers the biochemicalprocess of Photosynthesis by using 170,000,000 Btus of sunlight (per acre,per year), to grow plants. (6) CO2 + (6)H2O + sunlight C6H12O6 +(6) O2, with the Sun investing (adding) an immense amountof energy to grow grass blades, weeds and trees and leaves, 170,000,000Btus of sunlight (per acre per year). There is a basic law of science calledthe Conservation of Energy that states that energy cannot disappear .But all of those organic plants (of glucose molecules), will all later die. And they all will then decompose and disappear . So you will see all those Autumn leaves and grass blades on your lawn seemto vanish over a period of weeks or months. What happens to that170,000,000 Btu of chemical energy that was in all those (now dead) glucosemolecules? As all those glucose molecules oxidize and therefore decompose( C6H12O6 + (6) O2(6) CO2 + (6) H2O and they release that 170,000,000 Btuof chemical energy). That pair of chemical reactions in the CarbonCycle starts with sunlight energy and water and carbon dioxide and convertsit into chemical energy in glucose molecules. And then all those complexmolecules die and decompose and they release that heat which had started outas solar energy, so it slightly warms the surface of your yard. This processis referred to as the Carbon Cycle, as it repeats every year (probably forthousands or millions of years) where nothing really changes over time. Please notice that during the Carbon Cycle, there were the exact samenumber of carbon dioxide molecules (6) which were used and then laterreleased, (6) CO2It turns out that we can rely on the Conservation of Energy to capture muchor all of that energy for all the energy-intensive processes we want, inthis case, to totally heat my home! without creating the massive amountsof carbon dioxide which burning Fossil Fuels creates.It seems puzzling how ignorant Corporate leaders seem to be. They seemto assume that we will have perpetual sources of petroleum to dig up,where we can have endless sources of gasoline and diesel fuel and Jet Fueland the rest, where they will forever be able to charge us the billionsof dollars that they lust for. However, the experts at Mobil Oil recentlypublished an article where they believe that ALL petroleum on Earth will be usedup and gone by the year 2040 (just 20 years from now). Where do you expectto get your gasoline from in the year 2041? How do the expert leadersof COP25 intend to solve petroleum supply problems in 2050 after all thepetroleum will already be gone in 2040? It appears that we will haveseveral billions of permanently parked vehicles all over the world. Theexperts at BP published several reports where they think all petroleum willbe used up and gone by the year 2045. The highly respected OGJ (Oil and GasJournal) seems to agree with that 2045 date. Those oil industry expertssay that we will totally use up all Natural Gas by the year 2065.We must transition to start using the very natural Carbon Cycle to providethe energy we now rely on burning Fossil Fuels to provide. I have proventhis with a 13-year experiment regarding heating my fairly large home ina rather cold climate near Chicago, IL, USA. Where I had fed my centralfurnace $2,000 worth of Natural Gas every winter (where I had given theUtility Company $26,000 in the previous 13 years), in 2007 I totallystopped buying any more Fossil Fuels and instead began to totally heat myhome for free by using an aspect of the natural Carbon Cycle, where I havekept that $26,000 in my pocket and I have been even cozier than I hadever been while still burning Natural Gas. Better still, in these latest 13years, I have not created any 195 tons of carbon dioxide to send up into theatmosphere, so I have contributed nothing toward that Climate Change Crisis.If all of us billions of normal people would use this non-Fossil-Fuelmethod to heat our homes, using Thermophilic Bacteria and the natural CarbonCycle, around the world, we could nearly immediately eliminate most of theworld market for Natural Gas. Those Corporations (and governments) thatdig up and sell Natural Gas would then no longer have many customers! We(well, Greta and Fridays for Future) would have solved one part of theClimate Change Crisis, by simply eliminating the business market forthat Fossil Fuel of Natural Gas!This application of the Carbon Cycle works! In these recent 13 years, asa Research Scientist, I have personally entirely stopped burning Fossil Fuelsto heat my home and hot water, and thereby I have avoided sending 195 tons ofcarbon dioxide into our atmosphere. Greta Thunberg and Fridays for Futureneeds millions of us regular people to do the same to totally solve theClimate Change Crisis.The environmental crisis situation that human society finds itself is ratherdifferent than public speakers often claim. We must stop all burningof Fossil Fuels, and to never burn (oxidize) any of them again. We willhere compare digging up a Fossil Fuel (such as Natural Gas.) and burning it,to a different, far better, situation where we will not burn anything butrather allow the natural Carbon Cycle of organic growth to rely onThermophilic Bacteria to enable them to all naturally decompose.To entirely heat a whole home in a cold climate winterStandard Home Heating with Fossil FuelsI did thisprior to 2007My Method of Naturally Decomposing Cut Lawn GrassI havedone this since 2007Spend $2,000 to buy home heating Natural GasSpend $0 for your mowed cut lawn grassThis is 4 tons of Natural GasThis is 5.5 tons of cut lawn grassThis is 400 cubic feet of Natural GasThis is 1,800 cubic feet of cut lawn grassBURN IT (with fire, to create 3800 F flame to provide125 F air for the house rooms)DECOMPOSE IT (with no fire, to directly create 140 F air forthe house rooms)Creates 9,000 Btu * 4 * 2,000 pounds of Fossil Fuel Natural Gas or 72,000,000 Btu of heat energy for my house. This allows a lot of the energy to get lost up the chimney. My house needs 40,000,000 Btu/winterCreates 9,000 Btu * 5.5 * 2,000 * 0.43 pounds of cut lawn grass or 42,570,000 Btu of heat energy for my house. This is 100% efficiernt since it has no chimney. My house needs 40,000,000 Btu/winterCreates 13.75 tons of new carbon dioxideChemically: Burning Fossil Fuel C + O2 gives CO2plus 18 million Btus of energyand also 4 H + O2 gives 2 H2O plus some more energy,or carbon plus oxygen from the air makes carbon dioxide that adds to theatmosphere and hydrogen plus oxygen from the airgives water vapor and energy.Natural Gas is nearly all Methane gas. That is chemically CH4.From Chemistry, we know that the Carbon atom has an atomic weight of12 and each Hydrogen atom has atomic weight of one. The Methane moleculetherefore has a total atomic weight of 16 (or 12 + 4). It is therefore12 / 16 or 3 / 4 or 75% Carbon atoms.A pound of the Fossil Fuel Natural Gas contains very close to 3/4 pound ofcarbon in it. If it is burned as a Fossil Fuel, all that carbon will combinewith oxygen from the air to form carbon dioxide. Using atomic weights again,we see that carbon dioxide is 12 + 16 + 16 or 44, since oxygen is 16. Whenthe 12 weights of carbon are burned (oxidized), it therefore forms44 weights of carbon dioxide. We had 3/4 pound of carbon to start withso we multiply 3/4 * 44/12 to get 11/4 or 2.75 pound of carbondioxide formed for each pound of Fossil Fuel Natural Gas burned.Since we will burn tons of Fossil Fuel natural gas in the winter,this will create 13.75 tons of carbon dioxide or Climate Change during eachwinter.Create zero new tons of carbon dioxide by natural decompositionChemically: Carbon Cycle decomposition of Glucose is C6H12O6 andnatural decomposition is oxidation (6) O2 to create (6) CO2 + (6) H2O + chemical energy from the decomposingglucose molecules.A pound of Glucose from cut lawn grass therefore contains 72/180 or about0.43 pound of carbon in it. If it decomposes completely, we canassume that all that carbon will combine with oxygen from the airto form carbon dioxide and energy.Using atomic weights again, we see that carbon dioxide is 12 + 16 + 16 or44, since oxygen is 16. When the 12 weight of carbon naturally decomposes(oxidizes), it therefore forms 1.577 pound of (natural) carbon dioxide andenergy.We had 0.43 pound of carbon to start with so we multiply 0.43* 44/12 to create 1.577 pound of natural carbon dioxide formed inthe natural Carbon Cycle for eachpound of cut lawn grass which naturally decomposes.No new carbon dioxide had to be created by oxidation of any Fossil Fuelmolecules from deep under the Earth.This natural carbon returns to the Carbon Cycle for re-use againin the Photosynthesis process.Greta Thunberg is Seeking a Climate Change SolutionHere it is! It is called the Carbon Cycle.Each person, each family, can solve this crisis personally.Each family currently buys and burns Fossil Fuels to heat their homes,where they now have a Carbon Footprint of maybe 15 tons eachwinter. IF a few thousand or million or billion people stop burningFossil Fuels to heat their homes, and instead decide to use the farmore natural Carbon Cycle instead, then, as individuals, we can graduallyor rapidly TOTALLY SOLVE THE CLIMATE CHANGE CRISIS!Greta Thunberg can teach her followers to(collectively) eliminate more than two billion tons of Climate Change thisyear (maybe more!)Each family (or business) would only need toinvest a maximum of $200 and part of a Saturday of simple work, to then beable to save $2,000 every year to then never again have to pay even a dime forFossil Fuels for winter warming of their home or building and hot water,forever! After I did this in 2007, I have already savedmore than $26,000 in home heating bills in the following 13 years. I havealso already personally eliminated my sending 195 tons of chemically newcarbon dioxide up into the atmosphere. In these 13 years, I haveprovided the construction instructions (linked below, for free) to at least9,400 families who are now likely to be using this method of eliminatingtheir own Climate Change footprints.For about two centuries, human society has dug upcarbon molecules which have been deep underground for millions of years(which we call Fossil Fuels, coal, petroleum and natural gas), andoxidizes (burns) them to produce all the energy our civilization relieson. That oxidation process creates billions of tons of chemically NEWcarbon dioxide which enters our atmosphere. We call that Global Warming orClimate Change, and the Carbon Footprint of 15 to 50 tons of new carbondioxide which each of us individual families adds to the atmosphere each year.Greta can teach her millions of followersfar better ways to produce the energy they want to use. Instead of creating astounding amounts of new carbon dioxidedue to burning Fossil Fuels, she can teach everyone to insteaduse naturally decomposing carbon molecules from the Carbon Cycle to producethe heat and power and electricity and transportation they all want to use.Greta Thunberg has the Right Idea, but she is young and not yet a scientistI am a scientist, who has been doing this for thepast 13 years and knows how Greta can accomplish doing this. Just me, oneperson, has already eliminated more than 195 tons of Climate Change!A 17-year-old kid can DO that? YUP! And THIS year!You now probably pay some giant corporation $2,000 each winter for FossilFuels to heat your home. You have to burn (oxidize) that Fossil Fuelin a central furnace to create 15 tons of new carbon dioxide to send upinto the atmosphere to cause Climate Change. Instead, you could let sawdustor used coffee grounds or shredded junk mail or corncobs or a bale of hay orhundreds of other natural organic materials created by sunlight to naturallydecompose (no fire!) to heat your home for free. My personal favorite, though, is to use cut lawn grass to heat my homesince I save and store so much free cut lawn grass from my summer mowing.Since there are 75,000,000 American families, and this approach couldeliminate each of us adding 15 tons of carbon dioxide every winter, weAmericans could therefore (collectively) easily eliminate more than onebillion tons of Climate Change (15 tons each times 75 million of us) everywinter. Nearly all the businesses and factories and offices and storescould do the same for another billion tons of Climate Change eliminated. InEurope, they could do the same to eliminate another two billion tons ofClimate Change, every year!Prior to 2007, I paid around $2,000 every winter to heat my fairly large11-room home near Chicago, Illinois, USA, to some giant Corporation, forFossil Fuels. By burning (oxidizing) their Fossil Fuels to heat my home,I was also contributing a carbon footprint of creating and thenemitting about 15 tons of new carbon dioxide into the Earth's atmosphere,every winter.These Fossil Fuels were organic materials, carbon molecules, that had beenburied deep inside the Earth for millions of years, as coal or petroleum ornatural gas. But when I burned (oxidized) those Fossil Fuel materialsnow (to heat my home) I released all that 15 tons of new carbon dioxideinto the atmosphere (which had all been safely sequestered inside theEarth before I came along with my checkbook).I built a simple device in early 2007, and used it for the next sevenwinters to easily heat my house, far warmer than I ever dared to have itwhen I was burning their Fossil Fuels. I guess I am sort of a beachperson who always likes to wear a tee shirt and shorts no matter howcold the Chicago winter gets in February. So I loved to now be ableto keep my house rooms at around 78 F or 79 F (or 26 C), wherethat extra coziness never cost me a dime! I avoided creating and sending195 tons of Climate Change up into the atmosphere. Not bad for oneperson!What is the secret of my insight?It is in not burning any fossil fuels!It is simply mowingmy lawn ! When all those blades of grass grow, they absorb a bunchof solar energy in the process of photosynthesis, 170,000,000 Btus ofsolar energy per year (per acre). After I chop all their heads off (!) with mylawnmower, that energy is still in all those many blades of cut grass (aschemical energy) due to the Law of Conservation of Energy. As the grassblades later naturally decompose they release all (100% of) that enormous amount of(chemical) (heat) energy. The (simple)device I invented just captures most of that heat that comes out of allthose cut blades of grass, as they all naturally decompose.By not burning any Fossil Fuels, I do not (chemically) create tons ofcarbon dioxide, zero!Climate Change - The Physics of the ProcessA careful examination of the Physics and mathinvolved indicates that we are confronted with immensely bad climaticsituations. You can see from the official records, by early 1997, we mayeven have already set in motion a course, which seems to have abuilt-in delay of 143 years, which might end all life on Earth in maybe ahundred forty years. All of the impressive political words we might hearduring the next hundred years, may not matter.My published scientific articleon this, (first Published 2004)A partial solution may already exist!In early 2007, I invented and built an inexpensivedevice (less than $200) that entirely heated my large Chicago area home withoutneeding to burn any Fossil Fuel. I actually collected (and stored, likefarmers do with their hay and straw, although rarely in bales, but usually inbags) the cut lawn grass from mowing my yard, along with the fallen autumn leaves.I had realized that the Sun used up 170,000,000 Btu of solar energy in growingthose plants on my one acre yard, and I knew about the scientific Lawof Conservation of Energy. When I watched the months of all those organicmaterials naturally decomposing (and therefore disappearing) in my yard, Irealized something important. All those 170,000,000 Btus of (chemical)energy in all those grass blades and Autumn leaves have to still exist! Theymust all get released as heat energy during those months of natural decomposition.During a harsh Chicago winter, my house needed to radiate about 45,000,000Btu of heat energy. Since I had found a natural local supply of four timesthat much available energy, I decided to design and build a device to capturemost of that heat as the organic materials decomposed inside my device.On a personal level, this entirely heated my fairly large housefor free for the following seven wintersand also I no longer needed to pay some giant corporation $2,000 each winterto keep my house warm. I now was able to keep my house rooms even cozier thanI ever had before, at 78 F to 80°:F (or 26°:C) (even on frigidly cold Februarydays, I love to be wearing a tee shirt and shorts all winter!)Now just consider if all 75,000,000 Americanfamilies had collected (and stored) the cut grass from their mowing of theiryards (and their Autumn leaves). This would eliminate the need forburning truly enormous amounts of Fossil Fuels (and instead using anexisting free natural energy source which is already sittingoutside your window in your own yard. This would be an enormous reductionof the huge amounts of Fossil Fuels now burned up for heating all the homesand buildings in the USA. Think about how logical this is! That cut lawngrass is already laying in our yards, and it already is naturally decomposingand disappearing! We 75,000,000 homeowners could tremendouslyreduce the amount of Fossil Fuels burned. Not because somegiant corporation did something with billions of dollars. But instead,because we regular people just chose to make use of an energy source that hasforever been just laying outside your window! Isn't that exactly whatGreta Thunberg wants us to do?If many American families now burn about 5 metric tons of fuel oil or naturalgas each winter to heat their home, that burns and creates and releases around 13 metrictons of new carbon dioxide into the atmosphere from burning Fossil Fuels.Collectively, the 75 million of us are (buying and) burning 375 millionmetric tons of fuel oil or natural gas each winter to heat our homes, and weare therefore creating an extra billion tons of (brand new) carbon dioxide to be releasedinto the atmosphere each winter. So, American individuals couldreduce our contribution of carbon dixode into our atmosphere by abillion tons each winter. European families could do the sameand reduce our contribution of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere byanother billion tons. Nearly all factories, stores, offices andbusinesses in America and Europe could do the same, increasing Greta'sbenefit to the planet up to around four billion tons of reduction!All this without needing any giantcorporations to lift a finger to help us in Greta Thunberg'spursuit!If you have been paying attention, some multi-billionaire corporations(including Exxon-Mobil) have been bragging about their efforts to do similarthings regarding algae and bamboo. Maybe they should listen to Greta! IF they aresuccessful, they hope to grow enormous amounts of algae and bamboo to use to make theelectricity and other energy that our societies rely on (mostly so they canget billions of new dollars by selling their energy supplies to people likeus!) Do you see the humor in that they are spending billions of dollars intrying to develop (one application of) just what Greta is already promotingfor us simple people to use? Those mega-corporations are alreadyconcentrating on amassing their algae into Thermoelectric Converters (knownas the Seebeck Effect, invented 200 years ago), to make electricity. We aresimply noting here that huge piles of cut lawn grass and leaves and sawdustcould similarly be fed into Seebeck devices to make Green electricity asdescribed below.And just think if Greta gets serious and decidesto get India and China and Russia and Brazil to participate?Read More (Greta)Read More (Scientific Paper published 2004)Parkinson's Tremor Elimination with Physics and a GyroscopeThis is a new device I invented which eliminates all of my Parkinson'sTremors.I have long had severe Parkinson's Tremors. As a Physicist, I realizedthat the stability of a gyroscope regarding the direction of its spin axismight have value in trying to cancel out the shaking of Parkinson's Tremors.I first built and tested this idea in February 2007, And it worksamazingly well!As a scientist, I now also have a laser pointer on the ceiling, pointed down, and a smallmirror on my fingernail reflects a tiny red dot back up on the ceiling. MyParkinson's Tremors cause reflected irrregular red patterns on the ceiling. Asa scientist, I study the variations and dimensions of the patterns to learnthe instantaneous and daily variations of the Vector Tremor motions, and eventhat the Tremors vary in many ways, even sometimes surprisingly stoppingcompletely.Early in 2007, I combined a sturdy weldor's canvas glove with asmall motorized gyroscope. A fast-spinning gyroscope uses aunique field of Physics where it can keep its spin axis pointed in a fixeddirection. (That's actually why gyroscopes are used for navigation of boatsand airplanes, and even for autopilots, Pedways, etc.)My gyroscopic glove detects an incipient Parkinson's Vector Tremor frommy brain, of any direction and amplitude, and naturally and automaticallycreates a strong opposing torque which acts to cancel the muscle actionof the Tremor. Whenever I wear my gyroscopic gloves, I amParkinson's Free! (although my gloves are very ugly!)Some associate researchers are now making some newer variations, as shownin this video. In this video (click below) is an effective Parkinson device on a60-year-old man (to the right) who suffers from considerable tremors (aresearcher's hands are shown to the left, connecting the wires of thebatteries). You can see the man's leg (to the lower right in the video)having severe tremors. His right hand, inside the white glove (which has abattery-powered motorized gyroscope mounted upward to the back side of theglove), shows virtually no tremors at all. Without the glove, his hand hassevere natural tremors similar to those tremors in his legs. Theglove-gyroscope device clearly proves that it is eliminating his hand's tremors. Read MoreRape PreventionEvery day in the UnitedStates, more than 3,000 Girls and Women will be RapedSex is, or should be, a wonderful experience. Two people should have some say in whether it occurs. When only One makes that decision, that is Rape.Here is a simple system to assure that both participants have an equal say in such decisions.According to the US Census, there are 61,240,000 married couples in America. Today, around 30,000,000 couples will participate in sex, most within the system of marriage. Today, there will be more than a MILLION of those where only one of the two people had decided to have sex, usually the man. In many of those cases, the woman does not actively try to stop it, such as if she was drunk or stoned, or unhappily married, but in at least 3,000 situations, today, she truly did not want to participate, and that was rape.There are about 3,000 Counties in the United States, so this may be too conservative as being only one rape per day in your County. However, that is therefore still 365 rapes in your County every year. This year, 365 * 3000, or more than one million girls and women will be raped in the USA! We want to eliminate this serious problem.Rape PreventionTechnology now provides a wonderful new tool for girls and womento avoid the crime of rape.This concept is very modern and very scientific. Each time a manejaculates semen, he sends out 250,000,000 sperm. Each of those spermcontains his unique DNA. Modern Police Forensic DNA methods now dailyidentify criminals from sub-microscopic DNA specks at a crime scene.We want to Teach all women and girls a simple lesson. If a womanexperiences a molestation or rape, she needs to get a Tupperware bowl andplace her underwear securely into that sealed container, alongwith a note which identifies the location, date and time of the crime,and with any other details that Police might later want to know.A Tupperware bowl is very Forensically secure when sealed, so she couldstore her rape evidence for weeks, months or even years, and she might evenput her crime evidence in a Bank Security Box.She might later decide to proceed regarding the crime, and she couldprovide her Tupperware bowl and her crime evidence to a Police Forensic DNAAnalysis Investigator or a Hospital Lab. She would probably never need toTestify in Court, as the man would actually confront his own DNA, and he would always lose.Men traditionally assume that they would never be charged withsuch crimes by relying on a he said , she said argument to a Judge. That would no longer apply. The new evidence ofthe woman includes his unique DNA (on her underwear), which will alwaysconclusively prove to a Judge that he had done the crime. The womancould even have been unconscious and she would still always win such cases.The criminal will always go to jail.This is actually just an Education program forwomen and girls to preserve her own underwear inside asecurely sealed Tupperware bowl.It is also an Educational program for men, to teach themthat they cannot avoid their own unique DNA (on her underwear), includingthe fact that he might have ejected 250,000,000 sperm on her underwear, wherejust ten sperm / DNA is all that is necessary for Police Forensic DNA Analysis Laboratoriesto uniquely identify him to send him to jail. A central idea is that mostmen are smart enough to realize that they cannot beat odds of 250,000,000to one in even considering doing such a crime. The goal is thatwomen will be very safe because virtually no man would want to face thecertainty of going to prison for doing such a crime. Of course, theman would never have any way to know if that proposed victim of hiseven has a Tupperware bowl. But if she does, then he can know that hecan be headed for jail.A girl or woman who is raped, even months or years ago, may still retainthe DNA evidence that will identify and convict the rapist. Even ifChristine Blasey-Ford had known these facts 37 years ago, and had storedher swimsuit and underwear and summer dress from that assault by BrettKavanaugh, she could now have proven to the Senate Committeethat Kavanaugh had assaulted her. In fact, DNA is very durable, and if hermother had stored her teen-aged swimsuit and summer dress up in theirattic, even if it had been laundered many times afterward, five millionof Kavanaugh's 250,000,000 DNA in his semen may still be on that swimsuitand summer dress today.Rape Prevention is a web-site thatfully describes this program.As soon as all men realize that their own DNA can never let them getaway with rape, all women will be far safer.Even if a girl or woman was notable to identify or even remember a man who had sexually assaulted her,those sub-microscopic specks of the man's DNA conclusively provesthat he did the crime. Even better, no one else has to know aboutthis, until and unless she decides to approach a Hospitalor Police Forensic DNA Laboratory when she might want to Press Charges onthe criminal.Every girl and woman who has endured this crime can now knowthat she has the immense power of DNA Forensic evidence, where theabuser cannot avoid being arrested and imprisoned due to his own DNA in hissperm. The tables have turned and the man will no longer getaway with such crimes.Millions of men commonly rape and molest many women, every year!Moreover, they totally get away with it.It is long known that around one-third of all College Coeds, millions ofwomen, are raped at least once during their College education. Men know manyways to get women to have sex with them. Some are byintimidation and even by brute force. Many women are raped and molestedfrom getting drunk or stoned at parties or in bars. Other men use chemicalssuch as Rohipnol or Quaaludes to cause a girl to pass out so they areunconscious while they are being raped. Some girls are tricked andimpressed by sports stars or other men they see as attractive. I once knewa group of four College-aged men who started a competition while they werestill in High School. The loser three of them agreed to send the winner on a vacation to Cancun for the first of them whohad sex with 50 girls. It did not take them long. I knew all of them well and they talked to me. The losers said they hadsex with 42 and 40 and 37 girls. They did not even remember thenames of most of those 200 girls. One of them (the 42) had been engaged tobe married for two of those years, but their competition wasapparently more important than she was.Many other men know to buy drugs like cocaine or LSD or whiskey to getgirls stoned or drunk. Historically, the girls involved felt someresponsibility and rarely had much say in those many millions of incidents.There is now a new method for girls and women to have an enormous amountof control regarding such matters. Men traditionally had nearly allthe power in such incidents, but this new approach enables girlsand women to have much of the control today.After such a sex crime, when the girl or woman wakes up or is otherwise ina safe place, she should carefully examine all of her clothingand underwear and possible the bed sheets for any indications of any tinydroplets of the man's semen that may be on the cloth. A newTupperware bowl should seal that clothing andDNA evidence safely inside, where no additional DNA contamination could everoccur. Every man's DNA uniquely forever identifies him, and it isalways in all of his semen. At any future time of her choosing, aHospital or Police Forensic DNA Lab could analyze that stored clothing and obtain DNAsamples to identifty the sex criminal, very much the way that PoliceForensic DNA Laboratories already identify criminals of many crimes. That unique DNA(on her underwear) could not have come from any other source than the man whohad sexually abused the girl or woman. A Judge could take thisindisputable DNA evidence to arrest and convict the man of the sex crime hehad committed.Any man who might even consider doing such a sex crimeshould likely realize that every time he does such an act, to any woman orgirl, he would likely be in real danger of being arrested and convicted ofraping her, and he would no longer be able to deny what he had done to her.Now, every suchman would have to wonder how many Tupperware bowls exist somewhere that maycome back to haunt him, with a likelihood that future Judgeswould find him Guilty of every single time he tries to do such sex crimesto any girls or women (or men or Church children). Where men hadtraditionally expected to have been found innocent of such crimes, now theywill know that his own DNA would always convict him!If you have done an Ancestry DNA kit, you know that a tiny amountof your DNA from a mouth swab is all that is needed to uniquely identifyyou regarding your ancestry. An even tinier amount of a rapist's own DNAuniquely identifieshim as the attacker. DNA samples are durable. Any man whopursues sexual assault needs to wonder how many sealed Tupperware bowlsmight be waiting somewhere to cause him to be arrested and convictedand jailed for each and every such behavior.Maybe the behavior of all men might improve.Read MoreJeffrey Epstein raped many dozens (at least 80 girls that MiamiHerald Reporter Julie K. Brown has interviewed) of very young girls. He wasso rich that his Lawyers would get him off from any punishment. He proved thatten years ago in Florida when his Lawyer (Alan Dershowitz) achieved reducinghis punishment for multiple pedophilia rapes to only having to sit in anunlocked County Jail cell, and essentially only once a week on Sundayfor 13 months. In other words, no punishment for his multiple pedophiliaat all.But modern Forensic DNA Research organizations might be able to guaranteethat he would have been fully punished this time in New York.It is a proven scientific fact that all human males eject 250,000,000 spermevery time he ejaculates, and every one of those sub-microscopic sperm containhis entire unique DNA. Each of those Epstein rape victims (or theirfamilies) should have preserved her underwear. If any of those girls sendsher underwear to a Forensic DNA Analysis Research Laboratory, maybe the whole250,000,000 of Epstein's DNA may not still exist on her underwear, but evenafter multiple launderings, there may be as many as 5,000,000 ofEpstein's sperm and DNA on her underwear. Forensic DNA Analysis Laboratoriesonly need TEN DNA to absolutely identify a criminal rape.It will be an absolute proof that he did that rape(s). Epstein'sLawyers would have no way of explaining how his DNA could now be found onher underwear. And she wouldnot have to face powerful Lawyers who might try to do a he said she said defense of Epstein to a Judge. Proven DNA Forensictechnologies would have assured that Epstein would have spent therest of his life in prison. DNA Forensic Analysis experts saythat they only need 10 of his DNA, and each girl's underwear may providethem with many millions of Epstein's DNA.Even when Brett Kavanaugh (tried) to rape Christine Blasey-Ford, 37years ago, and he was too drunk to accomplish the rape, he still laid ontop of her on the bed and rubbed his genitals against her clothing andswimsuit. In other words, that teen-aged swimsuit and summer dressaccumulated as much as 250,000,000 DNA of Kavanaugh. DNA is verydurable, and even if that swimsuit (and other clothing that Blasey-Ford waswearing that day), was laundered many times, if her mother had saved herteen-aged swimsuit and her summer dress (as mementos up in their attic),then even today, 37 years later, there are certainly millions of Kavanaugh's(unique) DNA that are storedup in that attic. Modern Police Forensic DNA Analysis experts, whichonly need ten DNA to identify a criminal regarding such a crime, the factthat quite likely, 5,000,000 of Kavanaugh's sperm and DNA are currentlystill on Christine's teen-aged swimsuit (and summer dress), a Police Forensic Labonly needs to identify ten of Kavanaugh's DNA to prove that he LIEDUNDER OATH to the Senate Hearing to get his job at the Supreme Court.Donald Trump enjoyed getting very young girls to sit on his lap for manyphotos, including his own daughter, Ivanka. His personality stronglysuggests that Trump certainly ejaculated (possibly inside his pants) duringthose various photos. Whether or not he more directly sexually molestedor raped any of the very young girls in those photos, the very numbersseem likely to have created criminal evidence against him. If he ejected250,000,000 sub-microscopic sperm (inside his pants), there seems a verystrong probability that SOME of his 250,000,000 of sub-microscopic spermpassed through his underwear and pants, where at least a million of Trump'ssperm (and therefore, his DNA) wound up on the young girl's clothing. SincePolice Forensic DNA Analysis only needs TEN DNA of a man to identify the man as asexual predator or molester, if any of those girls would provide herclothing to a Police DNA Forensic Analysis, we probably would have conclusiveproof of some of the many times when Trump did his sexual predatoractivities that he seemed so proud of in his recorded statements regardinggrabbing women's and girls' genitals.Donald Trump and Epstein were charged with raping a 13-year old girl,(Katie Johnson) who had a young eyewitness for every incident (Tiffany Doe)but Cohen threatened Katie's family's lives and Trump's Lawyers got that casedismissed due to alleged lack of sufficient evidence. But that event wasrecent enough that the girl may still have the underwear and clothing shewore on the four separate days of the sexual assaults by Trump. If she provides thatunderwear to a Forensic DNA Analysis Laboratory, they would only need to findTEN of Trump's 250,000,000 sperm and DNA to prove and convict him of havingraped a very young, 13-year old girl.The main Lawyer who had eliminated most of the punishment for Epsteinin Florida, seems to potentiaally have participated in more. At least oneteen-aged girl now claims that Alan Dershowitz had sex with her. Recently,Dershowitz amazed a Reporter by admitting that he had gotten a massage inEpstein's home, but he now claims that he kept his underwear on and thatthe masseuse was a very, very old Russian woman. No one believes that, butit might now be useful to also do the Forensic DNA Analysis on the manyunder-aged girls' underwear for matches to Dershowitz' DNA! But if Epsteinactually did have an elderly Russian Masseuse in his home, along with thehundreds of teen-aged girls, it would be fair to get the DNA from the elderlyRussian masseuse. I personally have doubts if such an elderly masseusewas ever in Epstein's home!Read MoreBrett Kavanaugh's Drunken Sexual Assault on Christine Blasey-FordBrett Kavanaugh's own calendar gave us the evidence so we learnedthat his drunken sexual assault crime on Christine Blasey-Ford had beencommitted during the Thursday afternoon of July 1, 1982 and it occurred inthis (brick) home of Kavanaugh's good friend Timmy Gaudette, at 507 AzaleaDrive, Rockville, Maryland. (The Gaudette home was thebrick residence on the left of this photo).When Brett Kavanaugh laid on top of Christine Blasey-Ford and rubbedhis genitals against her summer dress and swim suit in frottage, he didnot realize that every man sends out 250,000,000 sperm each time. Each ofthose sperm contains Kavanaugh's own unique DNA. Even 37 years later,now, there are likely to still be 5,000,000 of Kavanaugh's unique DNAon that summer dress and swim suit, even after dozens of launderings.Kavanaugh left millions of his DNA on the underwear of dozens of othergirls and women back then. Each of those women who now takes her underwearand clothing to a Police Forensic DNA Laboratory, they only need to findTEN of Kavanaugh's DNA in order to provide proof that he had LIED UNDEROATH to the Senate Committee in order to get his current Supreme CourtSeat. How else could Kavanaugh's DNA now show up in the underwear of any girl?It seems only a matter of time until it is shown that he LIED UNDEROATH, which is a Felony, which will then require that Kavanaugh isImpeached and removed from the Supreme Court.The party was actually downstairs in the living room of theKavanaugh-friend Timmy Gaudette's home, but when Christine Blasey-Ford needed togo up the very narrow stairway to use the single upstairs bathroom, the verydrunken Brett Kavanaugh and Mark Judge had absolutely no reason to follow herup the stairs. At the top the two very drunken boys pushed Christine intothe bedroom (and locked her in) instead of the bathroom, in the Gaudettehome that both boys were very familiar with. Gaudette's father lived faraway in Vienna, Virginia and his mother worked every weekday, so there wasno problem with any adults being around. Even better, Timmy had a 22-yearold brother Sean who could buy the 17-year-old boys the beer, so they hadoften gone to that home to (illegally) drink where no adults were everaround.These parties were actually intended to be (17 year old) boys-only drinkingparties, and it was rare that any girls ever came. However, the 15-year oldChristine Blasey had heard that a boy (called Squi) that she was interestedin would be at that party so she asked her (13-year old) best friend Lelandto go to the party with her. The girls did not expect to drink any beerand Christine was only there in the hopes of being able to talk to Squiand to be around him.The two very young girls did not realize that they weregoing to a drinking party where a bunch of 17-year old boys were there to getdrunk. If it had been the 13-year old Leland who first needed to go upstairsto use the bathroom, it was possible that the very drunken Brett Kavanaughmight instead have sexually assaulted and possibly raped the 13-year oldLeland instead.In the very wealthy area around Bethesda, Maryland, according to Dr.Ford's comprehensive Senate Testimony of September 27, 2018, the assault occurred ina modest, two-story, one-upstairs-bathroom home which had an unusuallynarrow (3 foot wide) stairway, which was the home of Brett Kavanaugh's goodfriend Timmy Gaudette. We know these things (and far more) due to thethoroughness of detail of Dr. Ford'sSworn Senate Testimony and of Brett Kavanaugh's calendar of July 1, 1982.Read MoreBrett Kavanaugh Bought $6,000 of beer as a 17-year oldWhile he was still just 17 years old, and too young to buy or even legallydrink beer, Brett Kavanaugh bragged about being the Treasurer of his Hundred Kegs of Beer or Bust . How did a 17-year-old boy have $6,000to buy a hundred kegs of beer? And what company (which clearly had to haveBusiness Licenses) would have endangered their Licenses by accepting largeamounts of money from a kid who was not legally old enough to drink?Each keg of beer contains 15.5 gallons or 165 servings of beer. Justhow many under-aged drinkingfriends did the 17-year-old Kavanaugh have where he needed to provide 16,500servings of beer? Do IRS records show the purchase of $6,000 of ahundred kegs of beer? Or the many apartment Rentals that Brett Kavanaughpaid for for his many Beach Weekend parties? There is no Statute ofLimitation regarding income tax or sales tax.As an under-aged teenager, Brett Kavanaugh definitely had an industrial attitude regarding drinking even though he now claimsto have behaved like a choirboy. Just transporting 16,000 pounds (or 8tons) of kegs of beer is beyond nearly anyone else.There have always been many people who have realized that photos andmovies of such sex parties are seen as valuable and can be sold to porn magazines. Brett Kavanaugh ran so many Beach Parties and Devil's Triangles and his Hundred Kegs , that such evidence must still exist. Suchphotographic evidence of Kavanaugh and Judge being present at such partiesmight alone immediately end Kavanaugh's career in the Supreme Court.Some participants in the Beach Weekends noticed that some of the boystook photographs of their own penises. Also, since some of the boysapparently brought cameras to those drinking parties, there must be existingphotographs or movies of girls being raped at those parties, where rape-fathers areclearly identifiable. Dozens of Yale students offered to Testify to the FBIregarding Kavanaugh's massive drinking or his exposing his penis to a groupof fellow students when really drunk (including Deborah Ramirez). At leastone of them may have taken photos or movies of Kavanaugh which may now beworth $10,000.A Reward of $10,000 will be paid to anyone who provides a photographor movie of Brett Kavanaugh participating in any of his sex parties,whether his Devil's Triangles (where respected government employee Julie Swetnicksaid under oath that she saw both Kavanaugh and Judge standing in linewaiting their turns to gang-rape that day's victim); or any of Kavanaugh'sBeach Weekend parties (where the girls would sleep over); or any ofKavanaugh's Hundred Kegs parties. Many such photographs and moviesmust certainly exist.In 1982, no one yet knew the importance of DNA. Also, no one realizedthat every time any man ejaculates, he ejects about 250,000,000 sperm inhis semen. Police DNA criminal processes only need ten sperm toidentify a rape criminal. Specifically here, if any of those (many)raped girls still own any of the dresses or underwear from 1982, even ifthey had been laundered many times, it may be possiblethat some of those 250,000,000 sperm from the boy who had raped her maystill be found on her underwear with Police Forensic DNA processes. It may makesense to try to locate any of the clothing of the girls who were raped.$10,000 Cash is Yours if you are the first to send in a Brett Kavanaugh sex photo or video$1,000 Cash is Yours if you are the first to send in a Brett Kavanaugh drunk photo or video.While he was still only 17-years old and too young to legally drink evenone beer, Brett Kavanaugh definitely had an industrial attitude regarding drinking beer even though he now claimed to have behaved like achoirboy.

That is more than 50 suicide gun deaths every day.That seems newsworthy to me, but apparently, suicide deaths by guns must bea forbidden subject.Why don't we place a loaded Assault Weapon on every one of the 535 Desksin the US Congress House and Senate? When a Representative was once unhappy(in 1857) with a Senator's speech the day before, he was limited to trying tokill the Senator with just his sturdy cane, which he broke over the head ofthe Senator. True, it took the Senator around four years to recover from thatmauling, but just think if they both had loaded Assault Weapons on everyDesk? The working of our Government might have been far faster. Or sincethe NRA wants to sell millionsof more guns and assault weapons, why not leave a loaded assault weapon onevery Pew of every one of the 330,000 Churches in America (just in casesomeone breaks in to try to kill anyone, like in the Pennsylvania Jewishmass murder)? And also place a loaded Assault Weapon under every seat ofevery movie theater? (In case the Colorado theater killer is reprised)?And also place a loaded Assault Weapon on every table of every gay nightclub? (in case the Florida mass killing returns)? We see a mass killingpretty much every week now, somewhere in the United States. Doesn't it seemobvious that the NRA needs to sell many millions of more guns than now,especially all as concealed weapons ? We obviously need tohave a hundred untrained people pull out concealed weapons and open fire ifanyone uses a novelty lighter to light a cigarette in a bar.Would our attitudes toward having many more guns inAmerica than there are people change if half of the front page of everynewspaper in America, every day, discusses the 50 people who intentionallykilled themselves by gun suicide that day? But apparently, the deaths ofthose 50 people are not as newsworthy as a spectacular crash where one person died and the front page news stories invariably discuss the wives and childrenof the person who had accidentally died in that crash. Have you ever noticedthat the wives, children, and parents of those 50 daily gun suicide deathsare rarely mentioned in any newspaper or TV news reports?Read MoreModern Science has Logically Proven that God ExistsChristianity and science are amazingly compatible!Everyone knows that the very first Chapter of Genesis in the Holy Bible mentions a series of historical events. Very importantly, those events arementioned in a very specific historical order, a sequence.Did lightcome into existence first? Yes, according to Genesis Chapter 1 in the Bible,but also Yes, according to modern science, as starlight and sunlight. Were there later grasses, then small plants, then large plants, then fishes,then small land animals, then large land animals and then (finally) man? Yes, according to Genesis but also Yes, according to modern science.The modern scientific method of Statistical Analysis proves that thesequence of the events mentioned in the Genesis 1 text of 3300 years agocould not have been composed by any human of the time and it exactly matcheswhat science has only learned during the most recent hundred years.The Genesis sequence could not have been an accident or a coincidence.That Genesis sequence was actually excellentscience 800 years before the Greeks even invented science! Christianityand modern science appear to provide insights which aid the understandingof each other. Whom did Cain go to live with after leaving Eden? Scienceseems to explain nicely! This also seems to be strictly scientific proofthat God had to have Existed, in order to provide the correct SEQUENCE forGenesis 1 to Moses. (1967)Read MoreBreast Cancer Cure with DNA and Stem Cells If a Doctor detects that Breast Cancer exists, a relatively simpleMastectomy would be performed to remove the diseased breast.Then, as an Outpatient, using her own unique DNA and existing Stem Cells,the woman's own body would be allowed to grow a perfect,brand new breast, over a period of months. Her body would naturally useher unique DNA instructions (again, a second time) to develop Stem Cells tothen grow the exact correct amino acid molecules to then grow the correctproteins to then gradually grow (over a period of months) a perfectlyhealthy, identical, replacement breast, without needing any radiation orpowerful medications. She will again become a perfectly healthy andcomplete woman.Every young girl began her life with her unique DNA instructions insideevery cell in her body. Later, as a teenager, she successfully grew aperfect pair of breasts. All of her body's cells now still have her uniqueDNA instructions in them as an adult. Say that breast cancer or an injuryor illness later damaged one or both of her breasts. Her body (andspecifically her DNA) should (later) be capable to again instruct her body togrow a second perfect breast. A Surgeon could perform a relatively simpleMastectomy to remove the cancerous or damaged breast and then an establishedtechnology of Stem Cells could naturally spend the following several months touse her existing DNA to generate the exact correct amino acid molecules whichthen would grow the precise identical proteins to then grow a perfect healthyreplacement breast. Yes, she would watch as her new perfect breastgradually grew. Without any radiation or intense medications, her bodywould then naturally grow a brand new, perfect breast (over a period ofmonths.) The Medical technology already exists, using her own (childhood)DNA and her own Stem Cells. There is NO negative consequences of thisapproach.The current method of dealing with breast cancer invariably doesmassive damage to the woman with serious Surgery, dangerous RadiationTherapy and powerful Chemical Medications. We see a far more naturalway to proceed to be a far better approach which seems to make a lotof sense. An Archived copy of that woman's unique own childhoodDNA contains flawless unique personal DNA instructions which couldbe used (again) by her own body to grow theprecise correct amino acids to grow the necessary proteins to grow new,perfect, cancer-free breasts. We note that she did it perfectlysuccessfully as a teenager, and we believe that her own body could useher (flawless) unique childhood DNA to do it again to replace a cancerousbreast as an adult. No adverse effects should happen to the woman,who comes out of this as a wonderful, complete person as though no cancerhad ever occurred to her!Dr. Harald Ott of the Massachusetts General Hospital has been workingon a similar (but more complicated) project of getting existing Stem Cellsto change to become heart muscle cells. He is optimistic thst his projectis likely to succeed. We are encouraged by his work, and even moreso,since the structure of a breast is far simpler than that of a heart.This new approach, involving her own unique personal childhood DNA andher own Stem cells, may even be an obvious solution to nearly everyMedical malady.It seems obvious that the Shriners' Childrens Hospitals and theSt. Jude Childrens Hospitals should also explore this approach for many of theirchildhood patients If a child has had an illness or an injury where thechild is now missing part of or all of an arm or a leg, that childdoes not really have much of a downside regarding trying this approach. Thebest they can currently imagine is an artificial limb someday. Even if that is a future likely resolution, wouldn't italso be a decent idea to obtain a tiny bit of that child's DNA toobtain the instructions for all the stages of growing a brandnew limb? Within their own Hospital, those precisely correct DNAinstructions might be used to grow stem cells to first grow thenecessary amino acids. Then those amino acids might be used to again use theDNA instructions to grow the necessary proteins for all the components of thearm or leg. Would this connect to all the nerves and muscles in the correctplaces? I don't know. It might take several tries before this wholeprocess would proceed as it does within a fetus to grow a healthy arm orleg. But it seems that the attempt would be worth pursuing. Again, thespecific child really does not seem to have any downside in such anattempt.Possibly, Shriners' or St. Jude's might want to first attempt a similarprocess in a dog or a mouse, to learn parts of the learning curve to enhance the success ratio.The process regarding growing a new woman's breast may actually be simplerto learn, as the breast does not have complicated mechanical requirements,where a new arm would have an elbow and a wrist and fingers that wouldhopefully become connected to the body's nervous system to be able tolearn all the complex movements we expect of our arms and legs.If this works, then we also wonder if the flawless unique childhood DNA of achild who lost an arm due to injury or illness might use those DNAinstructions to have his or her body (somehow) grow a brand-new flawlessarm, absolutely perfectly matched to the rest of his or her body.I recognize that connecting the countless nerve interneurons maybe beyond human technology, but the idea that a child (or even adult) mightbe able to involve Stem cells to grow a complete new limb seems intriguing.Of course, in that case, for a person to be able to grow an entire newhead of hair or an entire new set of perfectly natural teeth, might beeven easier for the Medical community to do. What about a perfectlynatural new liver, perfectly suited for that unique person due to theuniqueness of the DNA information? A new kidney, or a heavy smoker beingable to grow a brand new lung? Even a brand new heart?Read MoreSolar Heated HouseHome comfort that Americans expect without needing any fossil fuel.NorthWarm totally 100% solar-heated house - Version 1.A truly 100% solar-heated home for most any climate at an affordable price.This NorthWarm Solar house design is a revolutionary improvement inmodern housing. The hybrid passive-active design is based on a US Patenteddevice. It allows total heating of the entire house in a climate likeChicago's or even in some areas of Alaska! Even if there is onlyone sunny day every week! Or even ifthere is only 1.5 hours of sunshine per day! As an odd added bonus, the housemay not even need air-conditioning in the summer (in many climates),which means further savings on the utility bills.The NorthWarm Solar (Version 1 or 2) approach to solar heating is verydifferent from anyone else's approach. It is a two-stage system, whichguarantees incredible comfort and performance. One of our basic secrets is that we do not actually heat the house with solarheat!We provide an enormous underground, thermally insulatedheat-storage chamber (hidden under the house) where we send tens of millionsof Btus of solar heat. During every sunny hour, we collect massiveamounts of solar heat to forever maintain this (huge) heat-storage chamberat 125 F (or warmer) temperature. Relatively conventional air-handlingblowers and ducting then transfer 125 F warm air (identical to the warmair that your conventional house furnace now provides from fossil fuels) toany room where that room's wall thermostat calls for warm air. This approach hasmany bonuses, such as having a (conventional) bathroom wall thermostat setat 90 F while a bedroom might be maintained at 68 F and a livingroom maintained at 74 F. Few current homes have such customizedheating systems!For Northwarm Solar (Version 1 or 2) homes in some climates, the homeowneralso can install an additional underground, thermally insulated storagechamber, but this one for storing natural deep-soil COOLNESS (of 52 F).This then provides even moreamazing comfort ability! Some rooms of the house could be heated(in response to those rooms' wall thermostats) while other roomscould be cooled, at the same time! In existing houses, that isimpossible! But in a NorthWarm Solar home, it can be normal . A Cooled Pantry could maintain wines and foods at 52 F without needingthe expense of running any expensive refrigeration system, while a differentroom might be kept at 100 F as a Sauna! No one else could dothat, and all without expensive cooling and heating equipment?Each NorthWarm Solar (Version 1 or 2) house can have the heating (and cooling)system custom designed for that family's desires and their climate. In fact,for a climate like Chicago's, the heat-storage chamber could be over-sizedso that no direct solar panels might be necessary at all. Heatfrom the previous summer might be collected and saved toHEAT THE ENTIRE HOUSE FOR THE ENTIRE COMING WINTER! If a NorthWarm Solar(Version 1) house was built in some parts of Alaska, the underground heat-storagechamber would similarly be over-sized, such that the minimal amount ofavailable winter solar energy would still easily always keep the entire housecozy. It must be clear that essentially any other climate in Canadaor Europe or the United States or China could similarly use the NorthWarm SolarSystem. Interestingly, this approach of a two-stage heating/cooling systemcould also be Engineered for climates like southern Florida or Arizona,again, always for the absolute ultimate in comfort for all occupants.You might have noticed that much of the technology involvedin a NorthWarm Solar (Version 1 or 2) house is all hidden underground,so (Version 1) designs have immense flexibility regarding style andappearance. The ultimate performance style would involve some verylarge glass windows (or panels) for maximum collection of solar warmth,but the NorthWarm Solar design concept could use many other methods of supplyingheat to send into the underground heat-storage chamber, even a woodstoveor a wood-burning furnace or even a conventional fossil-fuel burning furnace! But wefrown on that, as that would defeat many of the free capabilities of theNorthWarm Solar concept and design. The NorthWarm Solar heat-storagecan also supply heat to make a vehicle garage as cozy warm as desired, andit can also send heat through air tubes under sidewalks and drivewaysto keep them forever ice- and snow-free. An amazing system! (1978)Read MoreHome Air ConditioningFree home A/C, Natural, Green, Save $2,000 of electricity every summer.You have visited a cool, even cold cave on a hot summer day. This concept uses thePhysics of why that occurs to provide an array of (sealed) underground airpassageways, just 8 feet deep beneath you, where the natural soil is alwaysaround 52 F, to send your hot house air down there to cool (and alsodehumidify) the house air naturally, without any Freon and withoutany giant electric bill from running a noisy central Air Conditioner.Comfortand conventional wall-thermostat convenience is as wonderful as with standardcompressor-driven air conditioning! Right now, day or night, summer orwinter, eight feet deep below me (near Chicago), the deep soil is always at52 F temperature, and we use that fact to recirculate hot house air throughsealed air tubes down there to cool and dehumidify it. We provide theconstruction information for free, and in the past 19 years, more than 24,000people have already installed this system to cool their whole homes!

We can doessentially the same thing regarding most earthquakes.We can use standard mining technologies to make many verticalboreholes in rock, exactly down into a known Faultline, then we lower(standard) dynamite charges down into those boreholes, and artificiallytrigger the dynamite to shake the earth to release the pent upTectonic stresses in a known Fault. Of course, we only do that afterwe have provided free food and beer and concerts and sports gamesout in the desert, to get everyone away from the Faultline for a day, andwhere we also move zoo animals to a different zoo for a day. Afterthat artificial earthquake there will be no more Tectonicstresses for fifty years of wonderful safety!Earthquakes are generally events that we knowWHERE they will occur. They are very dangerous because we do not know WHENthey will occur. We can solve that problem by artificially triggering theunavoidable earthquake, on a day when we have already evacuated all thepeople and animals from the region.When the California San Andreas andthe Hayward Faults occur, if they are both magnitude 9.0 earthquakes, theymay kill as many as 300,000 Americans. Experts all agree that strictscientific analysis indicates that the main San Andreas earthquake shouldhave occurred around 1975 and that the main Hayward earthquake should haveoccurred around 2005. They are both very overdue, now having constantlybuilt up huge underground Tectonic stresses that the rock layers cannot long endure.A one-day area mandatory evacuation to free parties, free concerts, freesports, and other free entertainment out in the desert would get people,pets and zoo animals to safety. Then conventional mining techniques and aprecise series of boreholes exactly into a fault line and down to exactlythe correct depth, and conventional dynamite charges and mining-likeartificially-triggered timing could trigger artificial earthquakes to shakethe fault sides and therefore release accumulated stresses in the Earth.Decades or generations of long-term safety could be ensured. Currentpolitics aspires to get people only around twenty seconds of warning beforean impending major earthquake. It seems to me that most people will stilldie. Doesn't it make far better sense to use this approach, to giveeveryone in Southern California fifty years of perfect safety?Read MoreAn Improved, Logical Theory which Complies with All Science Laws.A Continuous Dribbling Little Bang sort of EffectThe Big Bang Theory is immensely popular, but only because virtually noone understands the exotic Elliptical Curved-Space Riemannian Tensor Calculus on which it is based. Also, the fact that all Physicistsadmit that they are willing to abandon all the known and accepted logic andLaws of science for it (which are all based on Euclidean [or Plane]Geometry).The basic Big Bang idea was dreamed up by a Catholic Priest,Georges Lemaitre, in 1927, who first called it a primevalatom . Decades later, around 1948, the idea grewwhen a handful of men started arguing over whether the Universe beganas a Steady State or a Big Bang where their egosgot involved in a competition where accuracy and truth seemed to havedisappeared along the way.Much better than the very illogical Big Bang Theory, this conceptof the Origin of the Universe is a solidly logical explanation for thebeginning of the Universe, which is entirely based on actual experimentsthat many Physicists (including me) have performed, some of which are called Pair Production experiments, where the Physicist actuallycreates brand new (tiny) particles or photons in alaboratory (out of NOTHING). Yes, this is more of a Big Dribblewhere the Universe might have been formed a particle at a time, in manylocations and over many billions of years.This is logically far better than requiring a ridiculously impossible andillogical rapid explosion (which they call the Inflation) of everything inthe entire Universe in an impossibly brief 10-32 second. Thetraditional Big Bang then continues the neglect for logic and reality byclaiming that there was then an Inflation where the entire Universe thenexpanded by a factor of 10+50 in all directions from asub-atom-sized invisibly tiny (10-24 meter) speck toits current huge size in another 10-32 second. Please notejust how ridiclous this is! They claim that ALL of this occurred in lessthan a millionth of a millionth of a millionth of a millionth of a millionthof one second! Those proponents overlook the impossibility for all thosecountless trillions of tons of mass to accelerate up to speedsbillions of times faster than the Speed of Light for such a ridiculousinstant expansion to actually happen! (Do the math!)The Creation of the Universe may actually be a very logical process (whichPhysicists call Pair Production ) which Advanced Physics Students (including me)regularly perform in lab experiments. These experiments are somewhat weirdto a young Physics student in that you are actually CREATING two brand-newparticles or photons, out of absolutely NOTHING (except in starting with aphoton of energy to supply the energy so the Conservation of Energy ismaintained). In High School I had been taught the Conservation ofMass and the Conservation of Energy where no one wassupposed to be able to create anything like that! But Einstein made it possible by his E = m * c2 which canconvert energy into mass.It may be a very slow and gradual process which may occur one photon andnuclear particle at a time and it might STILL be ongoing! (Theory originallycreated in 1960, published on the Internet in 1998).Read MoreNeutrinos Do Not ExistNuclear Spin is a Vector Quantity and not a Scalar.The Brilliant Wolfgang Pauli's Logical Blunder of 1930.As of yet, 2020, no experiment has ever yet been done which has confirmedthat a single Neutrino actually exists. It took 25 years after Wolfgang Paulihad (incorrectly) speculated that Neutrinos must exist, before the firstclaim of an experimental confirmation was made in 1956. That verycreative series of experiments was done by Reines and Cowan, but they were veryillogical, requiring many different objects to allegedly prove theexistence of a non-object.The entire claim of why neutrinos must exist is based on their (alleged)Vector existence, where Wolfgang Pauli insisted that a neutrino must existin order to explain an incorrect and illogical assumption that NuclearSpin is a Scalar quantity. But that has never been adequately argued!Please show me the strict logic of how and where the Nuclear Spin of aNeutrino comes from and disappears to. But no one yet has!Incorrect logic was used in trying to explain how and why a Neutron canBeta-Decay into a Proton and an Electron every 15 minutes. Nuclear Spin isa Vector quantity, actually Angular Momentum, and it is not a Scalarquantity as the brilliant Wolfgang Pauli had incorrectly assumed in 1930. As a Vector, both Amplitude and Direction are important.Vectors add differently than scalar numbers do.In a (correct) Vector Addition diagram of Nuclear Spin, anElectron's Spin of 1/2 unit is one side of anequilateral triangle with a Proton's Spin of1/2 unit and a Neutron's Spin of 1/2 unit beingthe other two Vector sides.Angular Momentum (Nuclear Spin) IS ALWAYS CONSERVED.Pauli had dreamed up the need for Neutrinos (with another [Scalar] Spin of1/2 unit) because he misunderstood and thought that Angular Momentum wasnot Conserved and incorrectly assumed that it was a Scalar addition! In1930, he even publicly announced this 1/2 = 1/2 + 1/2 + (-1/2) as his Scalaraddition explanation of the Nuclear Spin (referring to neutron spin =proton spin + electron spin + (anti-neutrino spin) where he explained thatit had to be an anti-neutrino because that would spin the other way aroundand therefore be the negative sign so his Scalar addition worked properly.There is even additional precise statistical scientific and mathematicalevidence that Neutrinos do not exist in the highly respected and precise NISTdata resource. In addition, all Physicists have always overlooked thatfree-ranging Neutrons certainly do beta-decay every fifteen minutes,but that constant beta-decaying OF EVERY NEUTRON IN EVERY ATOM OF EVERYELEMENT cannot happen inside the nuclei of all atoms, hundreds of millionsof times every second, as there would be tremendous Energy Conservationissues with the (required, massive) Neutron Self-Binding Energy constantlyhaving to appear and disappear inside every nucleus. (2003)Nuclear Physics - Statistical Analysis of Isotope Masses.Read MoreAtomic Nuclei May Not Contain Neutrons or Neutrinos. Only looseProtons and Electrons may exist inside Atomic Nuclei.Traditional Nuclear Physics thinking involves many differenttypes of objects whizzing around inside all atomic nuclei (pions, quarks,strings, super-strings, Neutron self-binding Energy, Strong Force sources,etc), which can never precisely comply with the math of Conservation ofEnergy and the Conservation of Mass. This new approach greatly simplifiesthe interior structure of each atomic nucleus, but equally important, itnow precisely displays exact mathematical addition of the components tototally confirm the Conservation of Energy and Mass. Modern NIST datafor the energy involved in each nuclear object is known to better than tendecimal points precision, and each addition problem now has exactresults! In addition, everything now is much more logical and alsosimpler!A simple example is the beta-decay of a Tritium atom, which is now exact! According to the very reliable government NIST database, a decayingHydrogen/Tritium atom, 3H1, has a preciseatomic mass of 3.0160492779 AMU (Atomic Mass Units). That atom naturally beta-decays, with a half-life of about 12.33 yearsinto a resulting Helium-3 atom, 3He2, which has aprecise atomic mass of 3.0160293201 AMU. The NIST data also confirms that the Tritium atom decay also gives offradiation (of 0.0000199578 AMU energy). Do the math! It adds up exactly,confirming the Conservation of Mass and Energy. Every other nuclearprocess now also shows precise math!This math even confirms its own precision. The Tritium atom began with justone electron orbiting around its nucleus, but after the beta-decay,there are now two electrons orbiting the Helium-3 nucleus. It is fairlyeasy to calculate the Kinetic Energy of each situation. The differenceof that Kinetic energy of the electrons is less than 0.0000000001 AMU.Once it is possible to measure the NIST data values to another decimalpoint accuracy, it should show a really tiny difference, which will thenaccount for the Kinetic Energy of the second (new) electron in theHelium-3 atom.Traditionally, all previous attempts to do that math have always faileddue to not being able to account for the enormous (0.78235 MeV or 0.00083946AMU) Neutron Self-Binding Energy that is required to hold everyneutron together. To begin with, the Tritium atom (allegedly) had twoneutrons in its nucleus but after the beta-decay, there is only oneneutron remaining in the resulting Helium-3 nucleus. So all Physicistshave simply conceded that the Conservation of Mass and Energy cannot applyin that nuclear reaction. They cannot explain where the enormous amount ofthe one Neutron Self-Binding Energy could have disappeared to! Thatamount of energy which (apparently)must disappear is enormous, more than one and a half times the energy ofexistence of an entire electron (which is 0.511 MeV). (1996, 2003, 2014)However, the amazing precision of the NIST data shown above shows thatthe Conservation of Mass and Energy not only occurs within all atomicprocesses, but the accuracy of that data is astounding. Examples of eachof the many types of nuclear processes, showing the amazing mathematicalprecision of the NIST data, are included.A more technical presentation is atNuclear Physics - Statistical Analysis of Isotope Masses.Read MoreAccurate Mass of the EarthNewtonian GravitationalConstant - An Important Gravitation Experiment.

I hope to getNASA or the ESA to add this simple accessory to one or more spacecraft welaunch out toward the outer Solar System. I want to launch a tinysatellite around a spacecraft, first on a tether but then only dueto gravitational attraction, out where it cannot be affected by anything else.The tiny satellite would take a week or two to orbit the spacecraft, but wecould monitor that orbital radius and period duration, to accurately knowthe Gravitational Constant.

At the moment of Moonrise for a given location, the gravitationalattraction of the Moon on a metric tonne bob of a long pendulum inside a deep boreholewill pull the pendulum eastward, probably exactly 3.38561456 millimeters.A few hours later, at the moment of Moonset, the Moon's Gravitational VectorForce necessarily pulls that pendulum bob that same distance (but now westward).We have laser interferometry equipment that can monitor that movement tobetter than a wavelength of light. Such an experiment, which is relativelysimple to do, should improve our accuracy of the Gravitational Constant bybetter than a factor of a thousand.Graphic is of a heavy (metric tonne) pendulum hanging in a 24 hour 50 minutecycle in a kilometer deep borehole, beginning at the moment of Moonrise forthat particular location. The Pendulum is gray. The Moon is momentarily inthe direction indicated by the arrow. The bedrock surrounding the boreholeis not shown in this graphic. At the bottom of the graphic, the centerlineof the borehole is indicated as well as the instantaneous location of thecenterline of the pendulum (indicated in red). The instantaneous horizontaloffset of the pendulum in the borehole is given in millimeters, at the timein the 24 hour 50 minute tidal cycle of theEarth's rotation and the Moon's orbiting.Imagine a kilometer-long pendulum hung down a narrow borehole. There wouldbe no air drafts and no temperature difference so the pendulum would alwayshang exactly straight down. However, at the moment of Moonrise every day, the LateralVector Lunar gravitational force would pull the pendulum bob sideways, around3.39 millimeters toward the East. Some hours later at Moonset, the pendulum bobwould be pulled the other way, toward the West, a comparable distance. Withlaser interferometry equipment, those exact positions could be measured toa fraction of a wavelength of light (or around 3.38561456 millimeters). Theexperiment even repeats every day so we get even better statistical data. Wecan know Big G (Newton's Gravitational Constant) and the mass of the Earth athousand times more accurately than before. Read MoreSolar Electricity - Method Based on Natural UpdraftMany Birds and Glider Pilots know how to circle to fly without flappingor needing any AvGas or birdfood. This is a natural process of solar energyof Thermals or Updrafts to fly without needing power.Solarenergy gets absorbed into black dirt which heats the ground up and createsa natural vertical air convection cell where warm air rises. Now we knowhow to capture this solar energy to produce electricity. For this device,we add a little Technology to surround that rising warm air in a largediameter chimney, and then cover it, trap it, with a vertical-axiswindmill-type turbine. The trapped rising air has to drive the turbineblade, per the Conservation of Energy and Technology that William Rankinediscovered long ago. The spinning central vertical axle shaft of thatturbine drives a (standard automotive) alternator to create electricity.Quite cheap to build! A small, 5-foot-diameterdevice can supply a maximum 700 Watts of electricity, around 4 kiloWatt-hoursof electricity on a full sunny day. A 20-foot-diameter device should supplyabout 64 kiloWatt-hours of electricity on a full sunny day. This is not asefficient as the artificial Tornado approach (described below), and it onlyworks during sunny days, but producing enough electricity for a family iseasy and cheap. (2015)Read MorePure Water Supply from Atmospheric Humidity.You have noticed that droplets of water form on a glass of iced soda. Thatis actually droplets of very pure water from the humidity in the room. Thisoccurs because the warm and humid room air passes near a cold glass surface and the air cools to its Dewpoint Temperature and water is forced to condense intodroplets of very pure water.This works outdoors, too. Virtually all outdoor air contains significantwater vapor or humidity in it. We can take that humid air and blow it downthrough a long slightly-sloped underground tube, which is cool, so some ofthat humidity condenses out. For most climates, a $200 investment inplastic tubing can capture around two gallons of extremely pure water everyday. Larger installations can capture even more pure water. AfterPort-au-Prince's earthquake of 2010, I designed a much bigger version ofthis to provide them with 60,000 gallons of very pure water every day.March 2008.Read MorePossible New Approach to Experimentally Creating Fusion Energy.We may be wrong regarding understanding how the Sun works. All scientiststhink that the enormous mass of the Sun, 332,000 times that of the Earth,gravitationally crushes the Core of the Sun with enormous pressure therewhich then causes enormous temperatures of millions of degrees Kelvin.We have long believed that such enormous temperatures in the Core of the Suncause enormous velocity of hydrogen nuclei such that they collide togetherand fuse to create Nuclear Fusion energy in producing Helium nuclei. That energy then radiates from the surface of the Sun (and all other stars) topower our survival here on Earth.However!Three hundred years ago, the brilliant Isaac Newton invented IntegralCalculus and with it he discovered an amazingaspect of gravitation. His Gravitation formula is a Vector Calculusequation which calculates the gravitational attraction between massive objects. Inside the Earth, Newton developed his Shell Theorems (using hisIntegral Calculus) and calculated that only the (symmetric) mass which happens to bebeneath you provides gravitation, since all the mass above wherever you arehas the Vector gravitational force cancel out. Newton mathematically provedthat this is true for all symmetric objects, including the Earth and Sun and stars. We scientists have always assumed that all of the impressive mass ofthe Sun acts to gravitationally collapse the Core, to produce enormouspressure and therefore temperature of many millions of degrees Kelvin,which could then cause Hydrogen atoms to fuse together into Helium (calledNuclear Fusion). However, Newton had proven with his Calculus and his ShellTheorems that does not and cannot happen. There is actually virtually NOVector gravitational collapse at the center of the Sun, or in any otherstars. So how can the Sun and stars shine? We may not know!Read MoreThe huge city of Cape Town, South Africa (far bigger than Chicago) has hadall their 7 city water reservoirs go dry. Extreme Conservation effortsseem to be helping. However, the safe municipal water for their 3.7 millionresidents is expected to soon be gone. A solution exists.A hundred gallon barrel can be filled with excellent water in the ZambeziRiver (Africa's fourth largest River), in either Zimbabwe or Zambia. Thenthat 800-pound barrel could be inserted into a large reinforced concreteculvert as though it were a pneumatic tube, and handled like it is a giantversion of the canisters that drive-through banks use to transfer papers andmoney. The barrels would be accelerated up to exactly 200.0 mph,with a computer on board each to maintain that exact speed, inside a verylong, very straight, standard three-foot diameter reinforced concrete culvert(resembling a sewer). This is similar to the US Alyeska crude oil pipeline,where an aircraft jet engine can produce a 230-mph tailwind behind the barrels.Each barrel of water would fly inside the culvert by a processcalled Bernoulli Lift so they would rarely even touch the culvert walls. Eachbarrel would fly the 1,200 miles (or 1,900 km) to the city ofCape Town in about six hours after leaving the Zambezi River. Thethree-foot-diameter, two-foot-long barrels can be 10 feet apart, so 30 barrelscan pass every second, or 1800 barrels every minute or 108,000 barrelsevery hour. That is 10,800,000 gallons of water every hour or as manyas 250,000,000 gallons of pure water per day.large-diameter reinforced concrete culverts being installedThis possible application of the TRANS technology could move as muchas 250,000,000 gallons of excellent water from the Zambezi River to CapeTown every day, which could completely and economically solve their crisis,using existing, moderate cost, standard technologies.Read MoreGrow Natural Perfect Adult Teeth on DemandAs adults, we do not have the ability to grow new teeth and we have tohave a Dentist install artificial teeth.

The foods you eat are primarily atomsof hydrogen, oxygen and carbon. You are more than 94% C, H and O atoms. A basic law of science is called theConservation of Mass, where nothing can just disappear. Getting rid ofused and discarded hydrogen and oxygen atoms is easy, usually as waterin sweat, urination, or exhaled water vapor. Some companies know thatsome chemicals act as Diuretics, which make you urinate a lot more thannormal, which gets rid of water so your weight seems to drop! But yourbrain knows to get you to drink more water for health purposes, and theweight comes back. Actual body weight is much more dependent on carbonatoms and nearly all of the molecules in you are partially carbon atoms. Unfortunately, the human body really only has one easy process of gettingrid of used carbon atoms, as part of the carbon dioxide molecules yourlungs exhale.No one seems to know this rather basic scientific fact!

It is due to Albert Einstein'sGeneral Relativity and the Equivalency Principle of Gravitation andAcceleration. As an old man, I am now probably about 0.76 second older thanif I had lived my life on the Moon, in its lesser gravitation. General Relativity - A Moon Experiment to Confirm It.The Japan Space Agency (JAXA) plans to launch a spacecraft to soft-land onthe Moon in 2018. The Chinese Space Agency also intends to do a Moonsoft-landing in 2018. Since 2006, I have tried to get NASA or ESA toinclude a Cesium (atomic) clock in such a vehicle. If Einstein was rightabout General Relativity, an identical Cesium clock on Earth should countabout 10,976 times more ticks every hour (which would display as about1,194 nano-seconds difference every hour) than the identical clock on theMoon in its lesser gravity. If this is found to be experimentally true, itwould finally be a strict absolute scientific proof that Einstein had beenright regarding General Relativity. After a hundred years, I hope thatJAXA will finally do the strict experimental proof of General Relativity.Whenever this experiment is done on the Moon, it will also fix a huge errorof assumption in the field of Physics where everyone (wrongly) assumes thatEinstein's General Relativity causes a Time Dilation effect, where thereality is exactly the opposite. (2006, January 2009)(2013)Read MoreNewtonian Gravitational Constant AccuracyScience has made a variety of logical errors which cause the poorprecision of the value of Big G . During the past 40 years, more than adozen very careful experiments have been done to try to determine theprecise value of G, but the results have been in amazing disagreement witheach other. The primary cause for this problem is that all scientists seemto overlook the existence of the Moon in our Earth-Moon gravitationalsystem. The Earth and Moon form a gravitational Barycenter assort of a balancing point which the Earth rotates around every day andrevolve around every month. The Barycenter is actually deep inside theEarth, just over a thousand miles deep, about 2902 miles away from theactual center of the Earth, and it is stationary but the body(center) of the Earth rotates around it at around 793 mph due to our dailyrotating. Our Earth also monthly revolves around the Barycenter at about27 mph due to the Moon's orbiting. These constant movements result inconstant gravitational tugs on everything up here on the surface back andforth (several times every day!) A delicate gravitational experiment getsaffected, both regarding the strength of the Gravitational ForceVector and also (slightly) as to the direction of that Vector pull.All those careful experiments have never accounted for this Vector ForceAddition effect, so the experiments which were done in China or Italy orthe United States have given results which have not agreed. Some advancedmathematics could calculate the precise location of the Barycenter at themoment each earlier experiment had been done, to make the necessarycorrections to correct the values of Big G for each experiment. Thereseems no doubt that wonderful consistency and precision will then greatlyimprove the value of the actual Newtonian Gravitational Constant.

No motor or electricity is necessary to start orto power the artificial tornado, it starts up and runs by NATURAL processes.In 2006, 2009 and 2010, I personally successfully created about 90 miniatureNATURAL tornadoes.Use UV lamps to ionize that spinning air to produce alternating magneticfields to create substantial electricity by the Faraday Effect. (around40% conversion efficiency) (2006)(In 2015, NOAA discovered thatwarm 76 F ocean water was the secret behind the energy of howhurricanes start, something that I had been experimentally using for nineyears to artificially make my 90 little tornadoes in my basement, exceptthat I had always thought that 85 F was necessary!)Make yourself around a continuous 9 KiloWatts of electricity (or 200kiloWatt-hours every day) with a small controlled artificial natural tornado! We do not really need (fossil fuels) coal, natural gas or petroleum topower our society. Nature has provided us with an ideal technology! It's actually just simple Physics! The Sun warms a small (20-footor 6-meter diameter), calm pond up to around 85 F or 30 C (or warmer), usingmaybe 25 KiloWatts of sunlight power. Some of that warmed water is moved toinside the floor of a farm silo, where it evaporates, which removes around 970 Btu (or 0.28 kiloWatt-hour) ofenergy per pound (a lot) up out of the water. But then the rising warmedair immediately cools so some of the water vapor condenses out as tiny fogdroplets (which are now visible). This now releases a lot of thatpower (maybe 15 KiloWatts) which had started out as Solar heat. Most of thatenergy now becomes Kinetic Energy of the air above the warm waterspinning. (Conservation of Energy again, Coriolis Force.) This isactually how tornadoes form naturally. (I made more than 90 small artificialtornadoes in 2006, 2009 and 2010. If you have had a cup of [hot] coffeein a cool room, you may have seen a wisp of wet steam form andin a dead calm air room, you may have even seen that slowly rising visiblesteam start to [naturally] twist by the same Coriolis process!). Then, weuse (standard) Ultraviolet lights to ionize that spinning air whichelectrically charges it. This creates a circulating electrical current inthe air, somewhat resembling the way circulating ionized iron inside theEarth creates its magnetic field. Many coils of wire are suspended on theinside silo walls surrounding the spinning charged air, which detect thealternating magnetic fields which pass through the coils of wire(by Faraday's Law). This generates an EMF, or electricity! 9 KiloWattsof produced electricity is realistic. Electricity is produced as long asthere is warm water, even during the night! The device I inventedresembles an old farm silo, which keeps the [small] enclosed tornado fromever becoming dangerous.

Thattechnology exists, and decently fast rotation of a large heavy wheel ispossible. It is then simple to increase the spinning speed to drive a caralternator to make electricity, which I have done in producing about 300Watts of electricity in a small prototype device. The full-scale devicewas meant to produce a consistent 5,000 Watts during the daytime.Read MoreMinister Threatened with $82,500 PER DAY Fines by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers.

It is for a man standing at the Equator of theEarth, who is rapidly rotating with our planet. It is () or 0.999 999 999 998 796 560(less than 1.0000 so it is therefore an apparent time-slowingeffect). However, in his daily circular path around the Earth, he is alsoconstantly centripetally accelerating radially downward so he also has atime-rate effect due to General Relativity and the Equivalency Factor,which isor 1.000 000 000 001 203 440(more than 1.0000 and therefore an apparent time-speedingeffect). A common (wrong) assumption in Astrophysics is that we on Earth arein what Physicists call an Inertial Rest Frame of Reference.Both Special Relativity and its Lorentz Time Dilation factor and GeneralRelativity and its time-speeding factor constantly apply to us. Therefore we are never in an Inertial Rest Frame, but the effect of the two exactlycancel each other out. The NETtime-rate factor is therefore1.000 000 000 000 000 000.The Hafele-Keating experiment totally FAILED by ignored that we are constantlycentripetally accelerating and that General Relativity also constantly applied. Also,fields in Astrophysics which speculate that time travel is possiblewith such silly ideas as Wormholes and such are totally wrong. Eventhe very respected Stephen Hawking was totally wrong in spending halfan hour of airtime in his new Genius TV program where he neglectedthat both of Einstein's Special and General Relativity are constantly ineffect. Like with many other modern Physicists, Hawking had made anassumption and then thought up a possible experiment to prove hisassumption was true. Unfortunately, Hawking had assumed that only SpecialRelativity and its Time Dilation was acting, and he neglected that GeneralRelativity and its own (different) Time-Rate Effect was also acting (in hismountain experiment).Read MoreNational Debt - Extremely Urgent News for AmericansIf Congress removes $4 trillion from the Federal Budget, thatessentially means ending 4,000 billion dollars of existing contracts withhundreds of thousands of American companies, which will destroy manybusinesses and employers.

I thinkthat the European Union leaders should immediately sign a document thatwelcomes Ukraine into the EU.

There are around 75 millionfamilies in the U.S. Instead of giving that monthly (new) $85 billion togiant Corporations, which actually have not used it productively, imagineinstead that Bernacki chopped up that monthly $85 billion into 75 millionequal parts, and he mailed or electronically transferred $1,133 to each andevery American family EVERY MONTH FOR THE PAST FIVE YEARS!What would have been the result of this?

The idea was for EVERYONE to simply dozeoff and sleep, so Authorities might then enter the building to be able tosort out the good people from the bad. At the time, I asked my good friendPeter Jennings of ABC News to suggest this idea to the Russian government.I feel the same basic idea of unnoticed sleeping gas might be valuable forschools (maybe in entryways or hallways) (and even in Churches and movietheaters).Read MoreSecond Amendment and Safe Guns Unlimited Guns But Perfectly Safe!We should modify every gun with a modern electronic automotive sparkignition trigger. Rather than using a mechanical trigger, this uses a25,000-Volt spark to ignite the gunpowder. It is COMPUTERIZED and DIGITALso it could only be fired while an embedded COMPUTER PASSWORD was in effect.That password process could require a biometric thumbprint match.(January 2013)A gun owner could have as many weapons as desired (per the Second Amendment)but no one could ever fire any of them except for after the Biometricthumbprint-matched Owner activated them (a few seconds), and even thatowner would need to re-new the password after 12 hours.Therefore, no child could ever find a loaded gun in a closet and kill asister. No young man could find his mother's guns and take them toSandy Hook to kill twenty beautiful little children. No one could killpeople in a movie theater, or even out at a Congresswoman's visit to a Mall.In fact, ONLY the Thumbprint-matched Owner could EVER activate that gun tobe fired. Are you aware that EVERY YEAR, around 19,000 of thepeople who commit suicide in the United States use a gun to do it?Think about that. The Thumbprint identified owner is rarely that person!This suggests that this idea might eliminate nearly 19,000 deaths by suicidein the US each year. Just that seems worth doing this! Also, Guns wouldprobably no longer be stolen from homes as they could never be fired by thethieves! Street Gangs might have great trouble in constantly gettingthe passwords updated for all their weapons, INCLUDING their AssaultWeapons (every twelve hours.) We believe that EVERY existing guncould be quickly, easily and inexpensively altered or replaced to only befunctional for a period of 12-hours by a thumbprint embedded password. Gun owners would have the best of all worlds, in having access to unlimitedsupplies of the weapons they love, while ensuring that the public willnever be injured by any of those weapons. Their only slightinconvenience would be a two-second process of having their thumbprintrecognized! From a different perspective, it seems to me thatthere are at least two entirely different interpretations of the UnitedStates Constitution Second Amendment. I don't see that anywhere in itstext is there any reference to being allowed to carry weapons absolutelyanywhere. It seems to me that the Second Amendment text instead makes veryclear that any American has a right to have and use weapons on one's ownproperty. In other words, as per the stated right of the peopleto keep and bear Arms to defend one's own family and property.

I know of at least one!There is apparently an even larger problem than the New Orleans Saints Coaches which exists. In 1998, I spent my usual weeks around Christmas centered on playing Beach Volleyball around Ft. Lauderdale Florida. We strong players would play from around 10 am to noon, when the College tourist players would start showing up and we had to give up the net. But I sometimes got my Beach Doubles partner to agree to try to hold the net, against the six College guys who wanted to take over. Those College boys never realized how good we were, but I would get them to agree to the formality of the sixes team needing to win the Beach from the Twos team. Our team of two players generally could win game after game againstteams of College sixes. On that particular day, a young boy, a 14-year-old High School sophomore had been watching us. When my Beach Partner finally got bored with playing against weak competition and left, I was left with no partner, even though I still had the Beach, so I asked the kid if he knew how to play. He played pretty well and the two of us held the beach for another two hours against the College sixes teams. We only actually stopped because I was getting very hungry and thirsty, but then we talked and I mentioned to him that there was then a restaurant which had a very popular lit night volleyball court, where I went to play each evening. So he showed up there and we were able to play some more and then talk. This was to be my last day in Florida before heading back North for the Winter! But this Sophomore kid described things that scared me worse than anything I had ever heard. In High School, he was on the Fort Lauderdale Football team, but he was rather little,around 140 pounds and so he was made a Defensive Back. But what he told me next was what truly terrified me. He was asking me if I thought it was right for the Fort Lauderdale High School Football Coach to have specifically taught him how to hit the star running backs on opposing teams on the side of their knee, in order to destroy the star running back's knee. He asked me whether that was right to do, just to win a football game! To INTENTIONALLY (my emphasis) destroy some kid's life and career as a football player, just because a Coach decided to teach him how to end that kid's career. Wow! I was so angry at hearing that that I could hardly talk! I thought about driving over to the Principal's Office of the High School the next morning and telling him about what I had been told. But I realized that I was only a stranger, and HIS Football Coach was a CELEBRITY, and there was no chance that the Principal or anyone else would believe what I would say. Worse, at that time, thevery idea of INTENDING to destroy an opponent's career in football would never have had any credibility (until recently with the New Orleans Saints Coaching Staff). And the kid would have gotten in a LOT of trouble for trying to get the Coach in trouble . So I did not go to the High School, and simply drove North the next morning. Only NOW, twelve years later after the New Orleans Saints have gotten into trouble for intentionally destroying opponent's lives and football careers, do I realize that there may easily be an enormous problem. I guess I hope that some web-surfer might know how to find that kid who told me those scary things, who now should be around 28 years old. Maybe he would feel safe from any vengeance from that Coach or that High School by now. But I wonder HOW MANY OTHER kids playing high school football are affected by Coaches who are so frighteningly aberrant? Maybe the New Orleans Saints news might get even scarier incidents to the light of day. (2010)Read MoreHorrible Abuse of Little GirlsIn November 1987, I had lived with a nice 29-year-old woman for about six months. One day she told me that she had to leave for a few hours, and then she decided to tell me why. She had a 6-year-old little girl living with us, but she told me that she needed to go to a Birthday Party for her son, who lived in an institution. She mentioned that it was his 17th birthday. She clearly saw that I was confused, regarding how a 29-year-old woman could have a 17-year-old son. That evening, after she had returned, she saw that I was still very confused, so she explained things to me. She told me that her father had been a significant home builder in LaPorte Indiana, and that when she was seven years old, he started using her (her phrase) to entertain himself and two of his (male) friends. So, for the next five years, that horrible man USED his own daughter for sex entertainmentfor himself and his friends, apparently nearly every day. AFTER ABOUT FOUR YEARS OF THIS ABUSE, she got pregnant when she was ELEVEN (and she did not even know if the father was her own father or one of those other two men!) She was so young that the baby, Alexander, was born with many birth defects, which was why he spent his entire life in an Institution. Once she had told me these things, I was outraged and I wanted to contact the Police about her father's crimes. She would not allow me to do that, as she felt her father was too important a businessperson in LaPorte that all that would happen would be that she would be humiliated. I also had not calmly thought through enough to realize that the Statute of Limitations certainly expired for those three perverts. So, as far as I know, none of them were ever punished in any way. I wonder how common this is, as I have heard of similar arrangements in other families. A 12-year-old girl in Thornton, Illinois was regularlyabused by her stepfather and several older brothers, for years. She eventually ran away from home and arranged to spend several days Testifying in a County Courthouse about her abuse. But no one seemed to believe a kid and none of the perverts were ever charged with anything. Of course, the fact that her mother stole many thousands of dollars from the car dealership she worked for in order to hire a very expensive Lawyer to defend them in that Court (from her own daughter) didn't help her to get Justice. IT MUST BE STOPPED! (2010)Read MoreWarping of Space - Some Incorrect AssumptionsNearly all scientists now believe that the fabric of space is WARPEDdue to some things which Einstein had said. They are so wrong that it islaughable. And it is all based on really stupid logic! Einstein DID saysomething along that line, but REALLY different! The usual claim todayis that gravity of the Sun causes a warping of the space around it, wherethird-dimension warps then are shown in artistic renditions. But that ispatently ridiculous! Gravity does not and can not SELECTIVELY distort oneaxis of space in deference to the other two dimensions. It is a ridiculousidea and claim! What Einstein HAD said was that the Fourth dimension, theTIME dimension gets warped by gravitation, which IS true. It is a result ofwhat is called General Relativity. But it is a really tiny effect.The rate that time passes on Earth IS altered by this effect, butit is only about a ONE SECOND EFFECT in every seven years of time! So eventhe distortion of time is incredibly small! Since about 2006, I have triedto get NASA or the ESA to soft-land an atomic (Cesium) clock on the Moonto compare with an identical atomic clock here, to confirm Einstein'sGeneral Relativity by confirming that there is a slight difference of rateof time passage on Earth and Moon, but no takers so far. Everyone,including all Physicists, blithely bop along assuming that time passes atexactly the same rate everywhere, and it does not!

Most of the deaths are expected to be in and near thecities of Nagoya and Osaka. I think that those deaths are unnecessary,and that the Tectonic Stresses in the Earth's Crust could be released bycausing an artificial earthquake. A one-day area evacuation of all people and animals, to Free Concerts, FreeBaseball games, Free Amusement Parks, Free Food and Saki picnics would getthe people to leave the area for one day. Then barges with mine-boringrigs would be floated over the precisely known location of the faultlinebelow the Nankai Trough. Hundreds of boreholes would be made, down INTOthe actual fault, and conventional mining explosives would be lowered intoeach borehole. At a PLANNED time, when all the people were known to beevacuated, the explosives would be detonated. This would both shake thefaultline and very slightly spread it apart, maybe just a millimeter. Theseeffects would permit the accumulated Tectonic Stresses to be released. TheEarth would then move as it would have moved in an actual earthquake, andit would cause an expected large tsunami. But all boats and ships wouldhave been moved elsewhere, and buildings could be angle-braced if they wereliable to damage from either the shaking of the earthquake or floodingfrom the tsunami. The accumulated stresses in the Earth would becompletely released, for decades or generations of long-term safety,peace-of-mind and happiness.

The sandstonewas and is washing away by erosion!

I didn'tthink so!There are people who talk about Infrastructure as the way tocreate new jobs but they never seem to actually do anything that helps.Community Wind seems likely to provide an immediate one million newconstruction jobs in America (in also providing a significant amountof the electricity that our country needs). Our TRANS system may createaround four million new jobs (in the process of replacing highways,railroads, cars, trucks, trains and airplanes with a far more efficientmethod of moving people and objects around, at 200 mph speed and withoutusing any fossil fuels). These two systems will be so economical as toreplace fossil-fuel-burning methods of today where the customer's costwill be LESS than current costs, while also being so profit-producingthat they would be owned and operated by private corporations.One result of this is that Not a Dime of government money would berequired (or wanted!) for either one of these important systems, or forseveral other job-creating presentations in this Domain!Duh???Right Now, US Government data collected at the South Pole showsthat the Earth's atmosphere now containsCarbon Dioxide. It is a big number, but note how rapidly our activitiesof burning fossil fuels are causing the total to constantly rise! details, footnote These are Tons of gases, each comparable in size to entire large houses, Enormous amounts! It seems important here to mention a Chinese program that everyone seems to be bragging about (early 2012). They have installed many millions of dollars of equipment to try something they call Carbon Capture. In 18 months (a year and a half) they brag about having captured 150 tons of carbon dioxide. That might sound impressive and good, but stare at the changing number above to see what 150 tons of carbon dioxide actually represents. They are not even close to having captured one-second's-worth of carbon dioxide in that year and a half of operation. I bring this up here to get the public to realize the scale of the problem that we create, every second of every day, by digging up and burning fossil fuels. Doing impressive demos for Reporters is easy for many processes, where a few pounds of carbon dioxide can be removed from air. For maybe $30 cost, I could do a nice demonstration for you of the Solvay Process footnote, a major industrial method which has been used for more than 150 years which removes carbon dioxide from the atmosphere to produce soap, glass and other common products, where I could show removing several pounds of carbon dioxide in an hour or two. However, a few pounds are not billions of tons, and no one seems to consider the problems of scaling up such experiments by factors of billions or trillions of times! The burning of fossil fuels added around 15.6 billion tons of carbon dioxide to the atmosphere during the year 2008. Actually, we are incredibly LUCKY! The enormous amounts of fossil fuels we burn (coal, petroleum and natural gas) produced and released around twice this amount of increase (31.9 billion tons during the year 2008) details. We just happen to be lucky that (cold) ocean water is extremely good at absorbing a lot of the carbon dioxide we are sending into the atmosphere! footnote (these numbers are metric tonnes, and the same numbers in American short tons would be about 10% higher) Slightly warmer seawater is much worse about absorbing carbon dioxide, so as the oceans gradually warm up over coming years, that ability for the cold ocean water to absorb carbon dioxide will rapidly reduce. This will cause the effects of global warming to be occurring faster and faster in the near future. (There is also another downside to this process, as the absorbed carbon dioxide causes the ocean waters to become more acidic, with carbonic acid forming [H2O + CO2 makes H2CO3], which is a survival problem for ocean fish and plants and corals.) It is now known that WE are sending about 30,000,000 tons of carbon dioxide into the oceans every day! That is massive amounts of carbonic acid changing the oceans. Also, see Global Warming - The Physics of the Process. for details regarding the details, facts and consequences.The real-time carbon dioxide calculator above has been in these web-pagessince early 2007. It is Extremely accurate (better than one-tenthof one-percent precision, just check thefootnote to see the three simple and accurately known numbers whichget multiplied to derive it)! In June 2009, massive news coveragewas made of a project where the giant German Bank Deutsche Bankspent millions of dollarsto provide this same running-total of carbon dioxide in the atmospherein Times Square in New York City. The news reports announcedthat several experts had spent a couple years doing thecalculations upon which their figure is based. Well, the numberthey show on that expensive display is Wrong! And it took severalExperts a couple years to multiply Three Simple Numbers Together???You could multiply those three simple numbers: [(1) theUS measured concentration of CO2 at the South Pole, (2) theDensity of carbon dioxide, and (3) the total mass of the Earth'satmosphere] in a couple minutes. And still they got an answer that is around20% wrong! Maybe you could get a job at a German Bank!The measured concentration of carbon dioxide keeps changing but theother two numbers are fixed.Our Footnote has an example of the actual calculation, which a Fifth Gradershould be able to do! However, we do recognize that the great visibility of ahuge display of this number in Times Square, even if it is actually wrong,can have great value. But a German Bank spent millions of dollars tohire experts to make significant math mistakes??? If I had anyaccounts in that Bank, I might get a little nervous!A quick note: The public is sometimes incorrectly worried that theincrease in concentration of carbon dioxide itself might be dangerous. Nope!Inside your (closed) home in winter, you might have concentrations of 4,000ppmv (parts per million by volume), ten times greater than the natural airoutside which is now around 409 ppmv. (This 4,000 ppmv is commonly measuredin northern homes in winter!) In old auditoriums which have lousyair circulation systems, a three-hour lecture or Sermon to thousands ofpeople can sometimes result in 10,000 ppmv (which all comes from allthose people breathing, exhaling carbon dioxide!), which can have the effectto make many people a little drowsy! the auditoriumnumbers And you wondered why that happenedto you! And in submarines, up to 20,000 ppmv of carbon dioxide isallowable! Carbon dioxide is actually a very safe chemical, and youget it every day in carbonated beverages. The actual main danger is regardingthe established fact that the additional carbon dioxide in the atmosphererepresents a blanket effect to keep heat from escaping the earth.No one actually realized this until about 1960, and we now know thismostly from observing the planet Venus, where its atmosphere ofmuch more carbon dioxide has resulted in a surface temperature ofaround +860 F (+460 C). That shocked scientists when all the 1960s spacecraftto Venus immediately melted! At that time, scientists had never beenable to measure temperatures there and they thought that all the thickclouds would BLOCK the sun from getting through that thick atmospheredown to the ground! They expected the surface of Venus to be COLD at maybe-40 F (which is also -40 C)! The Earth will never have that muchcarbon dioxide in our atmosphere, but significant heating is likely.Many Agronomists and Botanists believe that if the average Earth temperaturerises to just 80 F [27 C] (it is now around 59 F [15 C]),that plants (crops) worldwide will no longer becapable of lifting sufficient water from the soil to keep theirleaves from drying out and dying. If all the plants die, then therewill be no food for animals or humans. The fear is that this mightoccur within one or two centuries. There is a credible possibilitythat we might have ALREADY set in motion a greater temperatureincrease than that. Very scary.In general, web-pages tend to be composed by people who considerthemselves to be Experts . It used to be that no one was ableto get anything published unless a lot of other experts, a Peer Group, also considered themto also be experts. The Internet has changed this, where anyonewho has access to a computer can present himself or herself as aknowledgeable person. They often have no greater claim to beingan expert than their own opinion of themselves! They rarely seem to havethe appropriate College Degree that might support such a claim, and they arerarely considered to be an expert by the thousands of people who do havesuch College Degrees. In any case, this then seems to inspire the expert to make many assumptions which are not actually based on anysolid science or facts or logic, and to express their own personal opinionswhich they then present as being actual facts.The presentations in this Domain are rather different from that, ingenerally being based on universally respected texts, such as the Handbook of Chemistry and Physics and Mark's Standard Handbook for Mechanical Engineers,and the author of these pages received a Degree in TheoreticalNuclear Physics from the University of Chicago. You might thereforenotice some significant differences in the presentationsin this Domain. These presentations tend to drive many visitorscrazy by extensive equations and mathematics that support statementsmade in the text of a presentation. These presentations also tendto include a lot of the logic and documentation for the statementsmade.We see this as extremely important, to enable our visitors to recognizethe difference between the actual Scientific Method and what is commonlyclaimed to be science. Our hope is that some young people might chooseto pursue careers in science (or Technology) and we want to make surethey can tell the difference, regarding having a productive andsuccessful career in a scientific field.Strict science is pretty amazing about how carefully it examinesfacts and considers assumptions. It is normal to assume that gravityis true, based on what science calls anecdotal evidence. All the billionsof people who have ever lived on Earth have apparently always dealtwith gravity! As far as anyone knows, no one has ever seen gravityto disappear! But that is not good enough for strict science!It is still referred to as a theory of gravity (or gravitation).Science searches for proof and, so far, no one has yet found anyreally compelling proof that it must exist. Scientists generallythink that such proof will someday be mathematical in basis. Scientistsare not stupid and we all accept that gravity seems to be reallyreliable, but it will not advance from a Theory to a Law untilmore strict proof comes around! This comment is important for athousand other reasons! You have noticed that people argue overwhether Global Warming is occurring. People seem to think thatassumptions and opinions matter, and the States of Virginia andNorth Carolina have governments which are trying to pass lawsforbidding Global Warming and even forbidding talking about it!That is terrifyingly silly! It makes me wonder how poorly educatedthe lawmakers are in those States! A phenomenon is either true or itis not, whether it is of natural cause or due to man-made activities.There are even hundreds of people who have College Degrees inscience who are willing to claim whatever some company wants themto say, for a few hundred thousand dollars! Scientists are notsupposed to sell out science, but human nature is what it is.A comment seems necessary here! Web-surfers are SOOO used to goingto sites which have forums and discussion groups that many criticizeme for not having such features in this Domain. I don't mean this asa criticism of visitors, but many of the subjects presented anddiscussed in this Domain are really technical! I would fear that aforum about many of the subjects might resemble the sort of conversationwhich might occur in a Bar regarding Brain Surgery. Many people mightwant to express their personal opinion but how many people on thosebarstools actually have the knowledge or expertise to truly intelligentlydiscuss Surgery Techniques on the Corpus Collosum? My question is, justhow valuable or productive could such a barroom conversation be?Actually, a web-site, Quora, is often like that. They accept 'personal comments'on virtually any subject but then they have a handful of 'moderators'who decide whether those comments are acceptable or not. At first, whenI would submit an advanced Theoretical Physics response, their 'moderators'clearly had NO IDEA of such subjects so they deleted most of my comments(unless they had been taught compatible things in Elementary School).So when I tried to share my advanced Theoretical Physics Research to peoplewho asked (advanced) questions, the Quora moderators would simply deleteeverything I would say that was too advanced for their own education.I soon learned to simply STOP sending in any Quora responses regardingany advanced subjects.Now, as this relates to the subjects in this Domain, Yes, we enthusiasticallyencourage our visitors who know how to solve Riemannian (curved space)TensorIntegral Calculus equationsto E-mail us with comments and criticisms and questions about relatedsubjects. Ditto, we welcome Theologians to send in E-mails regardingany of the Scholar-written articles on religious subjects in this Domain.Actually, many of the improvements of these 23,000 web-pages are eithersuggested or inspired by such incoming e-mails! There are also situationswhere us eggheads have not understood how to describe some technicalor complicated issue in ways that normal people might be able to follow,and so when frustrated visitors have trouble following some obscurepoint, it is very useful for us to get e-mails which tell us to chill out and to use English . Sometimes, that has been the only way for us torealize that we need to simplify or clarify some concept. We realizethat we get millions of visitors from every group of people, from some whoare on barstools and who want to discuss something on how an automotiveengine works, to others who are working on the consequences of Einstein'sGeneral Theory of Relativity. In an impossible task, we have tried tomake these presentations have some value to each of our visitors.In any case, all the presentations in this Domain are based on the bestscience that is currently known. Does science know every answer? No. But the entire point of all science is to always strive to learnmore, to better understand what, when, where, how and why of our world.So, do we yet know every detail regarding Global Warming? No. Which isactually why I spent several years in collecting all the scientific factsand logic related to that subject, in Global Warming - The Physics of the Process.But there are many of those people who are paid by giant Corporations,and others who have terrible science skills, who also claim to tellyou truth, when they actually do not. An interesting example thatseems to have gotten accepted by everyone these days is regarding the(alleged) Global Warming effects of Methane gas (or buried methanehydrate). It would be interesting if such statements were true,but the simplest examination of scientific facts shows that theyare absolutely untrue! Yet those untrue claims get repeated nearlyevery day by Reporters who do not know the science, and so everyonebelieves it! I have collected the science regarding that, specificallythe optical absorptivity of methane gas, in Methane characteristics. Either an atmospheric gas absorbs importantcolors of heat radiation or it does not, and laboratory researchregarding that selective absorptivity identified such effects.It is very puzzling that virtually all scientists and speakersattribute such characteristics to Methane gas, where the actualscience is very obvious! So the daily repeated claims that Methanegas is twenty times worse a greenhouse gas than carbon dioxide appears to be absolutely complete fiction!I want to add a personal grumble here. Fifty years ago, virtually no onecared in the least about the negative impacts of human activities. Rachel Carson's Silent Spring (1962) first began getting people's attention about many dozensof the catastrophic things we do to our planet and its environment.Interestingly, I happened to be one of the FIRST scientists who gavetalks on the First Earth Day on April 22, 1970. As a First Year Science Teacherat a very nearby Thornridge High School, I was recruited to be a Speakerthat day. The First Earth Day was terribly unpublicized and unorganized!When I got to Dolton Park that day, there was no one who seemed to be incharge, and I wound up choosing a Picnic Table to climb up on to give myHigh School Science lesson (twice!)Allegedly, we now know that we cannot be dumping all our sewage and garbageinto the oceans, as the oceans are not large enough to safely deal with it,and fish and coral and whales and more die off by suffocating after getting caughtin our plastic garbage. And, allegedly, we now know that we cannotsimply catch fish and animals with industrial methods without exterminatingmany animals and plants. Apparently, Americans now catch and killthree times the entire weight of fish of all humans on Earth, every year.So, at least we now seem to be aware of some of the bad things we do.My grumble is that modern humans decide to collect billions of dollarsin order to finance really small scale demonstrations of some ideasomeone came up with to allegedly solve some problem (which WE caused).They form NGOs to do this, so they can get their $80 million personal annualearnings as non-profit activities. I am tempted to think that many of themonly initiate the alleged saving the world projects for the massivefree publicity they get and those huge personal non-taxable paychecksthey get. (I have the same grumble about many mega-Churches which seemto exist for the exact same reasons.)Every once in a while, an actual great idea is come up with. My grumbleis that 99% of these incredible expensive experimental projects, which arebragged about, were not worth even trying. The Chinese project mentionedabove and even the long proven Solvay Processmentioned above are examples. The concept is fine, but it is just notpractical, because of a needed scale factor of billions to actual be of value.Another example is Tower Windmills, which is also a wonderful conceptbut even crude math shows that even if they did not constantly break down,no one could afford to build the millions of them that would be necessaryto actually really solve the problem. I just want people to think throughwhether such billion dollar ideas really have any valid possibilityof solving any problem. Fuel-Cell powered Hydrogen electric vehicles.Battery-powered electric cars. Nano-filter water purification systems.Etc. Etc.An additional side note seems necessary here. Modern society seems to onlysee credibility in the comments of any scientist if he has eitherbecome a multi-millionaire due to aggressive self-promotion andspeeches or if he has gone through the rather interesting processof publish-or-perish in specific publications. I have always beena rather low-key person who avoids publicity and self-aggrandizementand I also have only once been money-centered! In 1973 I invented anextremely advanced (JUCA) wood-burning stove for my own house, but word gotout and more than 27,000 people insisted on getting one just like it.I tried to find some local company which might be interested inmanufacturing them but no one was interested. So I had to learna lot about business and I set up a unique factory where I manufacturedmy JUCA woodstoves. When I was forced into making the first three JUCAsto get people to stop pestering me, I sold them for exactly $365.08, whichwas what the materials had cost me to build them (with NO 'labor' cost)and for several years, I sold all the many thousands of later JUCAs at thatsame price! Even without actually knowing how to run acompany, and virtually without ever advertising them, I manufacturedand sold over $11 million of my woodstoves. My ex-wife loved thatprosperity, but I found it all so stressful to consume my life. In a laterdivorce, a Judge seemed to like her and he gave nearly everything to her,which was fine.In any case, the University of Chicago taught me well in theoreticalPhysics, and my life has included many unique ideas and inventions.Once I knew the things I learned with JUCA, I felt that I could haverefined about 30 of them into businesses which also would have againmade me a millionaire (if that had any importance to me!) When theInternet arose and I learned of it, I decided to place rather completescientific presentations on many of them so that others might benefit fromthings I had found and enjoyed, and all without trying to make a dime fromany of them! So, in recent decades, the news media has not been floodedwith news of my ideas, and I have not again become rich, so leadersnow seem to assume that I am unimportant and to be ignored! Fine,but over the years, several hundreds of millions of people have visited andread one or more of my web-pages. I am satisfied with that.I had also not competed in the impressively aggressive Universitycompetition over getting Grants to finance research to support one'scareer. Each student or scientist needs to constantly be Publishingarticles in specific periodicals to enhance their credibility towardgetting such Grants, and it is universally known that even Professorswho do not regularly Publish have careers that soon fade and disappear.Since I was never into such competition and even hated the astoundingformat focus of College Theses, I chose to nearly universally avoideven submitting Papers for such publication. If my typewriter hadthe wrong font text or I didn't structure paragraphs in some extremelyrigid format, my advanced theoretical physics submissions tended to getrejected, even before anyone actually read any of them! So I lost interestin that, since I did not lust for the Grants that such efforts were alldirected toward anyway!The result of this is somewhat amusing! A number of these web-pagespresented in this Domain include extremely important information,whether it is about generating electricity by unique and advanced methodsor heating or cooling houses and buildings or other useful things likemaking sidewalks and driveways snow- and ice-free, or the AdvancedPhysics presentations on the faulty idea of the existence of neutrinos(they do NOT exist, as they were based on faulty logic), the faulty TwinsParadox or my unique research in Nuclear Structure. The establishedleadership has no interest in my pages! Some day they will, maybearound the year 2030!So even though many of these pages have been available on the Internetfor many years, their advanced Technology and many benefits never seemto show up in popular news media. In a way, that is sort of disappointing.During the past 17 years, at least 24,000 people have installed my free, underground air conditioning in their homes, while hundredsof millions of others still pay thousands of dollars to giant corporationsfor electricity to run conventional A/C compressors. It is such a simpleand obvious idea (which I invented in 1978 as part of my 100% Solar Heatedhouse) but still only a tiny fraction of people use it. My guess is thatthose few thousand people who no longer have to pay for expensive A/Cwill some day tell neighbors and friends, and by 2030, most houses on Earthwill include using my approach to A/C. I just find it all bemusing!A result is that some thousands of Automotive students have learnedabout the Physics of Automotive Engines from my page on that, but millionsof Auto Mechanics have never learned that stuff! The same in a varietyof other fields where Physics is important. Since I never ask for anymoney for any of these pages, there are also many people who assume thatthe (free) information must not have any value, else I would be trying to get rich from selling it! I find that sort of darkly sad. Anyonevisiting any web-page does need to be cautious regarding believingsome of the outrageous statements that seem to be everywhere, but thisDomain has always had extremely strict ideas regarding accuracy and truthand logic. But few people seem to accept that! Oh, well! The millionsof visitors to my pages are at least entertained for a while!I just said that everything in this Domain is strictly based on brutallogic and known scientific laws and knowledge. This single little sectionis an exception to those rules! As a Theoretical Physicist, I wantto believe that all other Physicists are equally as careful and strict,but there seem to be a few specific subjects where I have doubtsregarding them having been careful enough! So here is my list ofsubjects (all of which arose within either Nuclear Physics orAstro-Physics) where I want to present my idea of the odds thateach of these ideas is true and valid. So this is speculation onmy part! But I feel this is necessary such that quality Physicistsin the future might more carefully examine any or all of these subjects.Here is an interesting example subject. Musical instruments such as theacoustic guitar involve many aspects of Physics and resonance, but mostfeatures of lutes, mandolins, violins and guitars were developed prior tomodern scientific knowledge. The shape of the hollow body, its length, widthand depth, the size and shape and position of the sound hole, the length andorientation of the fretboard and even the species of wood used and the lacquerfinish on it, were all simply incremental individual attempts to try to improveprevious instrument sounds and performance. In other words, very little actualscience was ever involved in the construction of such instruments. From aTheoretical Physicist's perspective, this is all very fascinating, as weknow all that stuff as basic Physics! Clearly, mostbuilders of violins found value in using well-seasoned spruce wood for thesoundboard, but they made the back usually of well-seasoned maple wood.Lutes (from ancient times but mostly after about 1400 AD), tend to haveoval sound holes while acoustic guitars tend to have circular sound holes.Mandolins have a pear-shaped body (which is asymmetric lengthwise), whileacoustic guitars have bodies that have a wider and narrower section witha narrower still waist between them. Violins have f-holes for sound holes.Mandolins tend to have very deep bodies, although the mandolins usedin American country music tend to be shallow and with relatively flatbacks. It is not clear that very much actual logic or science has everbeen applied in the design or construction of any of these musicalinstruments! They seem to have all been essentially trial and error efforts,some of which sounded better and some of which sounded worse than previousinstruments! You may have noticed that some acoustic guitars are a LOTlarger than others. I personally came to be interested in the similaritiesand differences of violins and fiddles. But the fact that acoustic guitarbodies seem to have somewhat randomly different patterns regarding theproportions of the dimensions of the different parts of their construction,seems to imply a certain reliance on experimentation rather than actualtheoretical design.As a Physicist, I also find it fascinating that around 300 years ago,Stradivarius created violins which are still considered the world'sfinest, and even now, no one can identify how and why that is! One popularguess is that Stradivarius changed the chemical composition of theshellac he coated his instruments with. Virtually no one seems tosee any importance in the fact that he also slightly changed some ofthe dimensions of his violins from what others have used.My interest in acoustic guitars is related to the apparent fact that eachwas built as an experimental modification of previous instruments, where anysuccessful new instruments were then carefully copied. We refer to thisas Applied Physics, where an actual deep understanding of why somethingcaused an improvement or detriment is considered of minimal importance andonly the results (sounds) are actually important. In Theoretical Physics,we are usually much more focused on why a slight change of some dimensionhas some noticeable effect on the sound. The size and shape of each portionof an acoustic guitar causes resonances and harmonics (along each of thethree dimensions). As a Theoretical Physicist, I would study whether the sizeand shape of different parts of the resonant chamber might amplify resonantfrequencies which might enhance third-harmonics or fifth-harmonics to producesounds which were more harmonious. To simply build a guitar which had someportion which was half an inch wider or narrower, without having any idea ofwhat that might create, seems rather foolish to me. A Theoretical Physicistwould do a lot of calculations before actually drawing anything up.Maybe it would seem important to try having the two halves of thesound box to have widths that were in the proportion of 5 to 3, or3 to 2, to inspire some desired harmonic in the sound, and also have thewaist width in some other resonant fraction dimension.But no one seems to have ever used that approach!To me personally, I note that allacoustic guitars have the rear portion being the widest, and since no oneseems to know why that is the case (which might simply be due to copyingprevious designs or due to artistic appearance), I wonder about the sound ofan acoustic guitar which was reversed where the greater width partmight be near the fretboard, or even possibly a three-lobed acousticguitar (with two waists)! And what about two sound holes??? Of differentsizes or shapes??? It seems clear to me that if the actual TheoreticalPhysics behind these matters is not first learned and fully studied, itmight take construction of hundreds of three-lobedguitars before one was (accidentally) found to have a better sound!These comments are intended to explain and justify the field of TheoreticalPhysics! In the real-world, few people seem to care very much regardingthe theory and logic behind any existing technology, and a person mighttry making a minimal change in an existing car engine or other device orproduct to try toimprove performance. That is more of an Applied Technology or AppliedPhysics approach, which tends to be limited to creating incrementalimprovements (such as in the Aeronautics and Aviation field, Automotivefields and most others). Modern society tends to rely on suchincremental improvements. Theoretical Physicists tend to see such approachesas being somewhat blind attempts to create advanced concepts and devices,where we feel that a good understanding of the logic and facts might enablean entirely new perspective regarding any subject. You may notice thisrather different approach in some of the presentations in this Domain.Gambling? Here is another Physics thing which has affected yourlife but you never knew! Any game that uses dice is probably sort of crooked unless really expensive dice are used! Only Physicistsprobably notice that the pits where the pips (black dots) are made are recessed,which means that some of the weight of the cube is missing there. Specifically,there is a side which has one dot and the opposite side has six dots. Do yousee yet? The cube is not symmetrically balanced! In fact, because theside with the one is the heaviest side, that results in the opposite side,the six being somewhat lighter and therefore coming up on top slightlymore often! This fact is true of nearly all dice, of what I call cheap dice, and they havethis statistical flaw. In Physics, it is possible to calculate theIntegral of the gravitational weight for a die which has rotatedsufficiently, and there is a slight preference for six over one. Not a hugedifference, but still statistically noticeable if you record a thousand dice rolls of ten dice(which, of course, I did when I was a teenager). The fact that dice areoften translucent makes it harder to insert a chunk of more dense materialwithout it being visible, but really good quality dice generally have thatweight correction inside of each die. Even better really good diceneed to be designed and then balanced for Statistical Balance, KinematicBalance and Dynamic Balance, which is rather involved to do!In theory, at Gambling Casinos, they only use the expensive kind ofdice, but I wonder whether all Casinos are willing to pay ten or twentytimes as much for Statistically, Kinematically and Dynamically balanced dice.Somehow I suspect that many Casinos assume that no Guest would know if theywere using crooked dice or not. Mostly since virtuallyno one but a Physicist would know either the problem or how it iscorrectly handled in really good dice! See? You have certainly playedMonopoly or a hundred other games where your chance of winning orlosing was not as fair as you had assumed it was! When you have playedsuch games, you may have noticed that SIX comes up A LOT.For people who might believe or disbelieve any of the informationpresented in this Domain, we encourage having the approach of a TheoreticalPhysicist at all times, even without any ritzy education. Checkany facts which strike you as questionable. Try to checkall assumptions made for the quality of logic involved. As aTheoretical Physicist, I am a real fanatic about these matters.The University of Chicago can claim most of the credit for that. Theyonce forced me, as a Physics student, to take an entire 13-weekGraduate-School-levelMath Course which was to either confirm that 1 + 1 = 2 or that it isnot correct. Non-Physicists see this as a foolish waste of theirvaluable time! But we Physicists do not want to take anythingfor granted, and want to make sure of even things that seem asobvious as 1 + 1 = 2. Farther down in this home page text is thestory of that Course, and why I now have great confidence in1 + 1 being exactly two! But I became far more alert to hundredsof similar assumptions that everyone simply accepts withoutquestion. It contributes toward a very cautious approachto all fields of interest, and I encourage any and all readersto be equally careful regarding whatever they read or see orhear, even in this Domain.I have always been a forever curious person. Little kids are like that,where they notice something that does not seem to make sense to them,and they either ask questions of adults or otherwise try to sleuth itout. I guess I am just a very large kid! As a recent example, I amnow fascinated with why we were born with a throat which is used for both eating and breathing . Your Pharynx is a short tube in your neckwhich carries either food or air. Your body somehow knows how to cause foodto be sent down your esophagus to your stomach, while you also know howto cause air to be instead sent to and from your trachea and your lungs. The moment you were born, you somehow knew how to open and close passages to be able to breathe into and out of your lungs! Ditto about knowing how to open and close passageways to be able to get food down into your stomach! I cannot find any evidence that anyone knows WHY we are born like that! Virtually allmammals are born the same way. That seems to imply that there must besome survival advantage but it is beyond me what that might be!You certainly have occasionally accidentally caused a piece of foodor a sip of liquid to go down into your lungs, and you have chokedand coughed for a while to recover from that. After millions ofyears of countless generations of us, I don't understandwhy a few babies do not get born with separate food and air paths,where that seems to me to be a survival advantage. Obviously, I do notunderstand why we are as we are! I would love to learn theanswer to this puzzle!There is even more bad news than that in the link above! (mid-2008) Thishas to do with the economy. footnote2An initial observation seems appropriate here. It seems to me thatvirtually everything that is sold or promoted or advertised todayis presented with intentional distortion, bias, spin and sometimeseven outright lies. People seem to really believe that companies arewilling to create million-dollar commercials and spend hundreds ofthousands of dollars every time they are aired, just so those companiescan give people free carpeting, windows, clothing, millions ofdollars, etc. And that those expensive commercials are run every hour tooffer diamonds that are worth double or sales that offer enormous(alleged) price reductions.Doesn't anyone realize why they went into business in the first place?TO MAKE THE GREATEST AMOUNTS OF MONEY THAT THEY CAN! For therecord, that IS the American dream! Should we believe thatthey are actually really stupid in spending millions of dollars justto give even more dollars to us? Duh?There seems to be a required suspension of all logic in accepting suchthings! Lots of insurance companies (and other companies that pretend tobe insurance companies!) tell you every day that you will receivemillions of dollars in coverage, while also telling you that youwill only have to pay $5 or $50 per month for it? How come no oneseems to do the math ? Fifty dollars per month is $600per year, right? and in your 50 years of adulthood, isn't that a$30,000 maximum that you will pay into it? Ah, I see! The companyis so wonderful that they are willing to make up for the rest of thosemillions that you will allegedly eventually receive! (Yes, I am aware thatinterest rates and investments will increase your $30,000 paid inby some amount, a good increase if they are good at investing. Butit ain't gonna ever get to millions during your lifetime!Yet, nearly everyone seems to simply accept such TV commercials asabsolutely trustworthy and reliable! And those companies areso generous that they are willing to spend millions every day for theair time to let you know about this amazing thing they want to do for you?A little more about the insurance commercials. Even now, 2016, there arehourly commercials running that promote this: A (healthy) 43-year old manallegedly pays $27/month for a $500,000 life insurance policy. Seems tome that the math is simple enough where even if he lived to 100, the mosthe would (allegedly) ever pay in would be $27 * 12 * 57 years or $18,468.And nobody sees anything fishy in that? An Insurance Company that went intobusiness to make profits, and which certainly has Executives which arepaid big bucks, is willing to commit to paying you $500,000 in exchange for$18,468 you ever pay them??? Worse, they are willing to pay millions tohave slick TV commercials created and then hundreds of thousands more everyday to pay for the air time to run them. Obviously, they are trying toconvince me that they are such amazing human beings that they would do thisfor ME, a total stranger! The commercial goes further and describes aneven better deal for his (healthy) 37 year old wife, just $13/month for a$350,000 policy. As it happens, I am a fairly smart person, and ifsomeone offered me a ton of gold for $50, I'd be tempted to wonder if itwere real gold. Regarding the Insurance commercials, there are some reallytiny fine print lines that appear for an instant near the end ofthe commercial, but even reading one word before they disappear is beyond me.As it happens, I got a paper flier from one of those Insurance companies.It is not easy, but I can actually read the fine print in it (with amagnifying glass!) The reality is not remotely like they promote. It isnot a life insurance policy as it is only good for ten year term policies. I imaginethat might be relatively safe for them regarding a healthy 43 year oldmale. It also explains that the Premiums increase yearly. And no onecan still get that insurance past age 75. And the Insurance Company hasan impressive amount of freedom to raise premiums by their own practicesand rules. not remotely like what they try to get the suckers to believe.And no one seems to think there is the slightest deception involvedin any of that! Companies are going around just looking for me so thatthey can give me free cars and piles of money and every other thingthat people dream of. It is no wonder that advertising is such anenormous business! People believe nearly everything they are told!(Regarding the health insurance companies, there actually is a partial explanation.It is that they know that 95% or 99% of the people who will pay in thatmoney will never have enormous claims during their lives! Actually,that probably includes you! So if 100 people each pay in $30,000 inpremiums, that is three million dollars, which they invest and make extramoney but also are then able to pay the million dollar medical billsfor that rare person who amasses such bills.But the insurance companies then makeenormous profits for their Executives and their investors, and alsopay out enormous medical claims for a very small number of peoplewho get AIDS or extreme cancers or other expensively-treated maladies.As I compose this, the US government expects to force insurancecompanies to cover everyone and to disregard previously-existingillnesses. It is amazing that no one seems to realize that actwill entirely make their profitable game no longer interesting tothem that run those giant Corporations! They will certainly move theirinvestments and efforts into fields where they can see enormous profits.)It seems to me that virtually no one seems willing to present any product orservice or person on what is actually true and honest! Wow! It is clearthat virtually every company seems to spend massive time and effort in tryingto find ways to deceive people into paying for their product orservice! Even when they have good quality products!(In vehicles, they somehow managed to overlook that JeepCJ5 TV commercial [around 30 years ago] where an eagle-eyed TV viewerhappened to notice that a rear wheel had LIFTED OFF THE GROUND in theprocess of nearly having a rollover accident [IN A TV COMMERCIAL!],and they still managed to get millions of people to buy SUVs, whichALL have that danger as part of their basic design!) And Ford and GMhad decided that they could get away with selling Pintos and Corvairs,while knowing that those vehicles of theirs would kill people. They simplyset a dollar value on a human life and decided that they could affordto settle claims regarding those deaths because they would have madeso much profit from those vehicles! And nearlyevery politician or other public person insistson spinning to make themselves bigger than life! I don't know whether we are supposed to conclude from all thisthat that there are no products or services actually worth buying!It sure seems to be an implication of everything we see.I realize that the reality is that every company is aware thatmost every one of their competitors do this sort of thing, and theyrealize that if they did not also do this stuff, they would not be competitive regarding pursuing the billions of dollarsof profits that they all lust for. And with only that concept intheir minds, it is sort of understandable that essentially everymodern company works hard to do as much deception that they feelthey can get away with. This is what modern society has devolved into!Here is another example of massive deception, even though it is fora basically good cause. You have seen newscasts which note thatthe people in Haiti and other countries earn less than twodollars per day which is considered to be below survivallevels. But I bet you have never related that to the (very expensive)TV commercials that run constantly that show the faces of very sadchildren to try to get you to send in money. Some Accountant musthave calculated that people might not send in money if asked tosend in more than $19 per month, so that is what they ask you for.THINK about this! They even tell you that this would cost youless than a dollar a day. Then they list off the amazinglyprosperous life that this child would suddenly have due to yourdollar per day, including schools, food, safe water, clothes and more.They claim that you would somehow provide this amazing prosperity forthat kid by giving your less than a dollar a day. Doesn't thisstrain credibility? If two dollars per day is not considered enoughto ensure food and health, then how are you able to provide thesethings and much more with far less money?Those organizations which run all those TV commercials never releaseany actual information regarding how many donations are sent in to themand how many children are thereby helped. There is so much deception inwhat they do that it is disgusting (even though I want to help suchchildren, I will not do it through such organizations. They neglectto mention that around 3/4 of all the money you might send in hasto be spent in paying to make more TV commercials and then to air themon thousands of TV stations and cable channels. They neglect to mentionthat the Executives of their organization are each paid millions ofdollars every year! So the reality is that your 70 cents per day thatYOU send in barely ever gets to any needy children! Around 55 cents ofit gets used up to pay those Executives and to make and air newcommercials to get others to send them money! In my opinion, that wholeoperation works a lot like an illegal Ponzi Scheme, where constant suppliesof new donors are required to keep their jobs and activities afloat!I had realized much of this around 30 years ago, but I was shocked athow extensive the deception was that they do! There were three differentyoung women I then knew who each had the same photograph of a very cute childon their kitchen refrigerators, along with the exact same (alleged) letterfrom that child. However, the three supposed children were allegedly indifferent African countries and allegedly had different names! It alsostruck me as amazing that a very young child who had never attendedany school [always emphasized in every commercial] had made a hand-writtennote in perfect English, from each of those (alleged) three countries!)Again, if there was any honesty or truth in the TV commercials, it wouldbe fine. But clearly at least fifty donors must have to be sendingin money every month (money that they often cannot really afford to begiving) such that an adequate amount might arrive for one needy child.But they know that no one is going to be sending them $19 every monthif they actually know that they are only one of fifty supporting thatchild! The disappointing part is that no one knows how many millionsof dollars gets sent in to such organizations every year, or whetherthere is even one child who has materially been benefited in theprocess. Claiming to be a non-profit organization allows amazingsecrecy about such things, and so they have gotten away with thatrather massive deception for more than 30 years so far. They can'tever get into any legal trouble because no one can ever know whatthey actually do or where the money goes! Amazing!In a dark branch of this fact of modern society, I find it essentiallyimpossible to find even a Church web-site which is not chock-fullof random advertising links. It turns out that if the site is popularregarding traffic, the Church can receive monthly checks larger thanwhat their Collection Plate provides! That universal fact seems toconfirm that even Churches see financial cash flow as more importantthat principles or morals or the Lessons they try to Teach!(Our Church's web-site and also the Believe Religious Information Sourceweb-site that it operates, gets around 50 million internet hits every year,and promoters know of our enormous traffic and so we have been offeredmany hundreds of monthly checks if we would just add advertising links to our pages. At one point, I discovered that our enormous internet traffic couldhave our tiny Christian Church could be receiving over $300,000 everymonth for including such links and display advertising. That would havebeen around $4 million in received cash every year, without even everhaving to do any work! No! That is not our style! Our (very popular)internet Domain has never had such display advertising, never has andhopefully never will.)In any case, this Domain has the intention and goal of actuallypresenting facts, in honest ways, where no deception hopefullyexists in any of the twenty-three thousand of our contained pages!Being human, I suppose that is probably not absolutely true, but it sure isas true as I have been capable of trying to make them.This tends to result in a situation which many people may findunexpected! Nearly every presentation contains both the wonderfulstrengths of any specific concept or product, but it (hopefully)also contains discussions of the negative shortcomings of thosesame products or concepts. The point is neither to promoteor sell any particular view nor to rip or denigrate such things, but simply to try to present both sides of importantareas which you may want or need to someday consider or analyze.Hopefully, you will find about equal presentationson both or all sides of any specific subject, all based on known factsand on solid logic, such that you canthen determine any conclusions that you think are most valid.For example, where virtually any other information source regardingtower windmills presents immensely optimistic comments or claims,toward selling that concept or some specific product, thepresentations in this Domain should (hopefully) present honestand realistic views of what might be achieved with such a system.Yes, there is good reason to examine wind power as a possiblesource of the energy upon which our societies rely. But it needsto be honest and balanced information for anyone to be able to actuallymake an informed decision! There is currently immense deception to thepublic regarding the actual performance of the giant windmills and wind farms!It would be great if they could actually do what the public is led toassume. But the fact that there tends to be a ten-year lead timebetween contractors being paid to build such things and their eventualdaily operation, so the money will be long gone before the public everfully realizes that nearly all of those tower windmills and wind farmswill certainly supply only maybe 1/10 of what is now expected of them.You might want to read Wind-Powered Electricity for 1000 Homes, regarding Practical Large-Scale Wind-Generated Electricityfor the facts, the logic and the whole story.Long ago, around 1975, I was amazed that Feature Stories in magazineswould be titled We heat our entire home with a Ben FranklinStove. Technically, that was true, but it was immensely misleading.The story would describe how the family would have to wake up everytwo or three hours all night to load more wood in their stove, andthen still have to wake up to a 53 F house in the morning, and that thehouse was extremely small, just four small rooms,around 600 square feet. Those occupants considered it acceptable towake up to a 53 F house! I wouldn't! And the living room I am nowsitting in while composing this text is around half the size of that entirehouse! Maybe I am too spoiled, but Iexpect to wake up to a house that is around 71 F or 72 F! (At thetime of reading such very popular stories in 1975, I had already been fullyheating an 11-room, three-story, uninsulated 1896 farmhouse, for the previousthree winters, with a very unusual woodstove that I hadDesigned, Engineered and built for myself, and I would never tolerate havingto wake up in the middle of the night just to add more wood! I would alsonever have been happy to wake up to a house that was not cozy warm at 70 Fin the morning. I am not a morning person! )In any case, technically, it was not a lie that that family in the magazinestory said that they were heating their whole house with a woodstove.But millions of people were later very disappointed to buy suchFranklin stoves and then find that it did a fine job of heating oneroom and possibly two, but never much more unless they lived in Florida!Info on my JUCA woodburners, and woodburning in general, is atWoodburning Furnace - JUCA.Fireplace, Woodstove - JUCA Super-Fireplaces. As to how it worksso well, How a JUCA Woodburning Furnace Works.So I suppose that I have a grudge against most modern advertising,because I keep looking for some commercial that does not wildly exaggerateactual abilities of some product and that does not intentionallydeceive viewers/readers into arriving at wrong conclusions. If it wereup to me, when ads said free, if those very expensive commercialswere not actually giving away the things they claimed, I wouldwant to see them all sued! Maybe some level of truth in advertisingmight then re-appear! In any case, this Domain makes a serious effortat avoiding such things, and tries to present honest facts andreliable logic, and even tries to avoid letting readers accidentallyarrive at some wrong conclusions. However, it probably will bea lot more boring than the exciting commercials that tell you thatyou have already won a million dollars or will win a Hummer or that thepromoter is going to give you gold or money or gasoline or whatever!OK. I do have some strange attitudes about some aspects of modernsociety. Several years ago, I was disgusted and astounded to seea TV news segment that described that 200 sports coaches in theState of Washington had been arrested and convicted IN THAT YEAR of molestingthe young children who trusted them and whose parents also trustedthem. My mathematical mind quickly realized that if there were 200in just Washington State, and the US has roughly 50 times the populationof Washington, that must have meant that there had been TEN THOUSANDsports coaches in the US that were arrested and convicted IN THATYEAR. And it's hard to even imagine how many thousands of othershave gotten away with their aberrant behaviors!So, my strange attitude regarding such aberrant people? Putthem in Prison for a year or two and then release them to do their horriblethings again? NO! No one could actually get away with doingthe following. But that Michigan gymnastics Coach who has been imprisonedfor 170 years, maybe HE might sign the paperwork to allow the following.Just imagine if one such convicted pervert was taken into a PublicSquare (maybe on a small stage in Times Square or a similar location)stripped and then an accurate machete swing was used to perform a rapid public operation , probably with a lot of Reporters andTV cameras present to record the gross and gruesome event. Yes, it would becruel punishment for someone with a machete to chop off the offendingparts in a fraction of a second. And, yes, a medical doctor would needto be present to stop the bleeding that would certainly occur.But just imagine the change of behavior of those thousands of OTHERABERRANT SPORTS COACHES and the millions of others who abuse children. Theywould certainly all watch it as a video, watched millions of times onYou-Tube and FaceBook and elsewhere. The SINGLE example of such apublic spectacle, would certainly cause a shiver up the spine of suchperverts, and a SINGLE SCENE could likely ensure thesafety of MILLIONS of children, couldn't it?(I admit that I got this idea from the sick terrorists who have beheadedpeople and videotaped it. But I truly believe that if a SINGLE such public machete operation was performed and videotaped, millionsof men would see that gruesome video on You-tube or whatever, and I think,would DECIDE to never do things to little kids! Would that be worth thesevere bending of the Constitution once? Well, I'm not a Lawyer or a SupremeCourt Justice, so I do not know. But I really suspect that an outside-the-box response like that, JUST ONCE, wouldcertainly make millions of little kids far safer.)As to having an effect on that one man, obviously it would, but thatwould not be the point. The intention would be that such a bizarre scenewould never have to be re-enacted. The video of it being seen over and overby millions of men who might consider doing bad things to little kids,should scare the daylights out of them. The thought that the one part oftheir body that seems to drive them most, might get viciously chopped off!Of course, in America, aberrant people all know that such a thingcould never happen to them. Even if they get caught doing the mosthorrendous things to little kids, they get good food and a roof for ayear or two while in prison, and then they know they will bereleased to do it all again, to other unsuspecting little kids.See why my strange attitude seems to make some sense!But since that will never happen, there will be millions of childrenwho will be abused in every conceivable way, some of which will occuron the very block on which you live!I wonder if there might some day be one Convicted child molester (Nassar) who actuallyregretted his behavior and who might volunteer to be the participantin such a gruesome scene??? A Judge might even grant a Prison Release tosuch a convict that agreed to be the object of such a scene. After all,that man would never sexually molest anyone else again! With a signeddocument that said that he knew what he was agreeing to! In such a case,maybe the Constitution might not need to get bent while still achieving thedesired goal of safety for millions of kids???This Domain contains presentations on many specific subjects inscience and Engineering. Many visitors seem to think that I justdreamed up the different things. No, a Physicist does not approachany subject that way. And, instead of searching for many booksor web-sites for information to be used for such presentations , that isalso not how a Physicist should work. In fact, the bulk of the scienceand the Engineering and math in the included web-pages in this Domainwere based on a total of two primary source texts! One is the Handbookof Chemistry and Physics. The other is Mark's Standard Handbookof Mechanical Engineering. Those two resources include thedata and the equations behind nearly all of Physics and MechanicalEngineering. That information was applied in unique new ways, true.But the point is that virtually all of the presentations in thisDomain are actually rather mundane applications of universallyaccepted knowledge of Physics and Mechanical Engineering.Here are a few somewhat random recent additions to this Domain(Hundreds of other links are farther down below!):Do You Believe in God?

A method to make SUVs the safest vehicles on the road. In the 1960s, luxury cars had suspension systems which used electric motors to level out a car by raising or lowering the rear suspension. In 2005, I applied this concept to allowing SUVs to remain tall when standing still or traveling at less than 30 mph, but where all four wheels of the suspension would lower by six inches when the vehicle speed rose to over 30 mph. Rollover accidents are then virtually impossible to occur.

Even within modern Physics, I see assortedthings which appear to be enormous errors, nearly always because someonehad made unjustified assumptions in (allegedly) solving some previousissue! Much of modern Physics is wonderful and very well basedin facts and logic, but there seem to be really bad exceptions!I find it somewhat humorous that virtually all Physicists look down theirnoses at people who even mention things like ghosts or ESP or UFOs, oranyone who claims to be a Christian, immediately saying that the otherperson is ignorant in believing things that are not supported byscientific evidence. Well, there are millions of people who haveclaimed to witness ghosts, or have experienced ESP, and nearly asstrong a factual basis for the other two subjects above. But thesame Physicists who humiliate people for saying such things, makeeven more un-factual and un-based statements, and consider themto be rock solid! Funny! Modern Physics has dozens of subjects which areeach results of various people's wild imagination, where there isno actual basis whatever!Is the Universe nearly all dark matter ? footnote56footnote15Are there Black Holes?footnote55footnote16Is the very popular Twins Paradox true?footnote64footnote17Is there good basis for Quantum Dynamics?footnote18Is the Quantum Defect actually an uncalculatable and irrational factor?footnote19Do Neutrons exist inside atomic nuclei?footnote60footnote20Even something as simple as the fact that even famous Physiciststalk about atoms that go into higher energy states having electronsin BIGGER orbits! No, the correct answer is smaller !footnote21Over the years, I have become involved in a number of projects, eachof which has been intended to somehow benefit society, Nature or God.Some presently exist, some are in development, and some are just availablefor possible combined efforts!ALL are protected by U.S. Copyright protection!The presentations included in the subject lists below give at least anoverview of many of these projects.

No authority is given to manufactureor promote any of them, based on the mere presence of these presentationpages.It seems important to try to address the major difference between howa good Physicist looks at the world and how everyone else usuallydoes! Physicists are usually seen as very peculiar, in a negative sense,of not having touch with the real world. I can't speak for otherPhysicists, but I think I have at least a vague idea of real life In fact, I am often amazed that the generalpublic often seems to have so little idea of what is actually going onregarding many subjects! Several examples seem appropriate here, to try toindicate the differences of the viewpoints. I have provided footnotes foreach which contain the logic and the data that seems to support the oneview. I have absolutely No idea what supports the opposing view!Weight-Loss and ObesityThere are thousands of weight-loss programs constantly advertised,each trying to get you to send them money for some magical resultsthey always (nearly) promise.

Well, I see the problem as being that No consumer of suchprograms or products seems to have a Physicist's super-logical viewpoint!So they actually think they are being told the truth, and they assumethat the concepts argued are valid! In contrast, consider (this)Physicist's view: One pound of bodyfat in the body (actuallycalled lipids or triglycerides) is made up nearly completely of carbon,hydrogen and oxygen, about 77% of it being carbon atoms.footnote Say you decide to somehow remove exactly one pound ofbodyfat from your body (without surgery!). That actually means that youhave to find some way to discard about 0.77 pound of carbon. This isnot quite as easy as it might first seem. We know the body breaks lipidsdown into simpler molecules (like by the Krebs Cycle) to get the energyout of it. We know the body can get rid of hydrogen and oxygen VERYeasily as water and in many ways, by sweating, by moisture in the breath, byurination, etc. No problem there. But how many ways does a humanbody have of getting rid of carbon? Do you know? No one seems to!The answer is essentially one! It must convert the carbon intocarbon dioxide (by oxidation, in a process called Metabolism) and then exhaleit as a maximum of 4.4% of your outgoing breath. (Dalton's Law of partialpressures) footnote That's it! It hasNo other significant way of dumping carbon! The pointbeing, in order to get rid of that one pound of bodyfat, the body hasNo alternative except to have to exhale enough breaths in order toget rid of enough carbon dioxide that can contain that 0.77 pound of carbon!(Of course, this is plus the carbon that must get dumped due to the body'snormal daily Metabolism.) I suppose that you mathematical sorts may havealready figured out that the 1.0 pound of bodyfat or the 0.77 pound of carbonwould require about 26,400 normal breaths, to get rid of all thatcarbon! A lot! The Physics logicseems crystal clear to me, but no one else seems to realizethese unavoidable facts. (Physics could not really see all this in anyother way!)It is even easy to confirm this is all true. An average adult man eats(ballpark) around 2,200 Calories of food each day, and breathes about a totalof (ballpark) 17,000 times each day. Each average breath is about halfa liter of air, which, when exhaled at body temperature, can each contain amaximum of about 22 milliliters of carbon dioxide in it, which is about0.0405 gram of carbon dioxide per average breath. This includes 0.0110gram of carbon atoms in it. In those 17,000 exhales each day, justmultiply to find that means a total of 681 grams of carbon dioxide or189 grams of elemental carbon can leave the body each day by way ofexhaled breath. (Still following?) The 2,200 Calorie daily dietincluded about 0.40 pound or 189 grams of carbon in the food. That amountof carbon is processed throughout the body in the daily Metabolism. Wecan therefore see that the normal exhaled breath accounts for the same amountquantity of carbon that had entered the body during eating and digestion, andwe even now see why the body weight is therefore generally stable!By the way, virtually no one, including alleged experts, seemsto know this fact! I created that web-page in October 2009http://mb-soft.com./public3/weight.html During 2014, the BritishMedical Journal and ABC-News-Catalyst totally neglected my 2009 Researchwork and they claimed that a man with a questionable education duplicatedsome of my work in 2014. In the scientific community, that is notsupposed to be allowed! In any case, 24,000 people had read my 2009article, before that guy ever came up with a partial idea, and beforehe forgot to consider that human beings actually have to eat to survive!Nearly everyone seems to assume that the food that we eat anddigest passes through the body to be excreted. It obviously has to gosomewhere, due to the scientific Law of Conservation of Mass! But thereality is that essentially all the food that you actually digesteventually leaves your body in your exhaled breaths! Not in thenastier way that people assume!You can probably see that if any of the variables regarding digestionor breathing are changed, the body weight will likely then also change.Greater Calorie intake (without any increase in Metabolism or breathingrate) pretty much obviously meansan increase in body weight. Greater Metabolism and heavier breathing,as, for example, due to a lot of exercise (without any increasein the Calorie intake) and the body weight is nearly certain to decrease.Pretty obvious, isn't it? Probably too many numbers, sorry, but Iwanted to build an air-tight case regarding this stuff.I hope you see that no assumptions were made in the discussion here (orin the 2009 Article), and simple and standard scientific knowledge and logicis all that has been used. This line of analysis forces accepting anentirely new (and somewhat bizarre!) set of conclusions! Yes,whether a person is obese or skinny is related to their rate ofMetabolism, but for an unexpected reason, apparently regarding their rateof breathing! A skinny person loses heat more easily from the skin,for having less thermal insulation, and so that person must havesomewhat faster Metabolism and faster or deeper breathing. The converseis true for obese people, who seem very likely to breathe either moreslowly or more shallowly, as a result of this effect.Exercise can certainly contribute toward weight loss, but if theassociated breathing is not sufficient, the body could not actuallyget rid of the carbon atoms! Isn't that really weird?The consequence is that exercise can get rid of bodyfat only bydoing two things: increasing the Metabolic usage of energy stores (everybodyhas long known that) and increasing the breathing rate and depth.Either one alone could not do it! It really does not seem to matterwhether you can lift 700 pounds or not! It may not even matter whetheryou are fit or not, as long as you do some activity that causes yourMetabolism to speed up and causes you to breathe either deeper or faster orboth! The faster metabolism part is also the actual reason why things likeCocaine and Speeders (Amphetamines) tend to cause people to become skinny,by doing BOTH of those effects, (although such people often alsoforget to eat!)There is another confirmation of this stuff. When Researchersdo Metabolism Studies on people, what they actual monitor is thecarbon dioxide exhaled in the breath! They make an ASSUMPTIONthat the instantaneous Metabolic Rate is necessarily proportional to theRespiration Rate, which is actually an extremely solid assumption, as it isnecessary for bodily equilibrium. But the fact that we haveidentified TWO INDEPENDENT PROCESSES here seems extremelyimportant. If EITHER the Metabolic Rate or the Respiration Ratewas somehow restricted, the other would necessarily have to alsobe restricted by the brain, in order to maintain bodily equilibrium.I suspect that there is an easy Thesis for a Medical student here!Obtain Physical Exam data for at least 1500 people who have deviatedseptums (obstructed nose passageways) and that for 1500 others who donot. Do a Scientific Statistical Analysis of the BMI number (acrude system of describing fitness by the metric body weight dividedby the metric height squared), and it seems certain that the people withobstructed nasal passageways should be statistically heavier! BECAUSEif less airflow can normally occur, then the brain would necessarilyrestrict Basal Metabolism in order to maintain chemicalequilibrium of the body. If Respiration Data is also available, theneven better Statistical Analysis could be done.When a person is obese, it might therefore be because of EITHERa Metabolic Rate that was too low for the food intake (with therespiration rate automatically then being reduced by the brain) OR due toa Respiration Rate that was too low to carry the carbon out of thebody (with the brain then automatically reducing the Metabolic Ratein response).The implications of this seem staggering! Say that your Metabolismwas fine and that your particular body simply had developed a habitof breathing 10% more shallowly or 10% less often than most people do.Maybe that is due to aging or a change to a sedentary lifestyle.No one would ever notice this minimal difference. But say that you thencould somehow LEARN (again) to breathe just 10% more deeply, with 0.50 literof air in an average breath rather than your normal 0.45 liter. You mighthave already learned to restrict your food intake to eating 1,980 Caloriesof food each day, which might keep you from gaining even more weight, butyou could not seem to lose any of the weight you have. But now your bodywould be able to exhale 10% additional carbon dioxide (equivalent to 2,200Calories per day). (Remember that you had already learned a pattern of onlyeating 1,980 Calories each day.) Simple calculations indicate that thissimple and easy change could represent a WEIGHT LOSS (of actual bodyfat)of around 0.4 pound per week or 22 POUNDS peryear!. It sort of boggles the mind to think that all those expensiveweight-loss programs might not be necessary at all, and that many of themare apparently impossible to be effective! And that a person might be ableto lose really large amounts of actual bodyfat simply by learning apattern of breathing a little more deeply (or a little faster)!A web-page describes the details and the math and science behind this atBodyfat, Weight Loss, the Physics of Body Weight Control.There IS a caveat included above! Those larger breaths ARE ABLE TOcarry away 10% more carbon. Will it actually do that? Don't yetknow! It could happen that if your body has gotten really usedto a slowed Metabolism, it might already therefore only be supplying asmaller amount of carbon to the lungs. The CONCENTRATION of carbondioxide might simply drop lower to carry away the usual amount.So it might not be that your Metabolic Rate would increase justbecause the limitation of the Respiration Rate was lifted from it.Your brain has to figure this out!Once you have taught your body to breathe slightly more, it MAY thenbe necessary to also teach your body Metabolic Rate to also increasethat small amount. Whether it would do it because it could or only after it was re-taught, is not yet known.So it DOES seem important to consider exercise, which would have theeffect of teaching your body to increase both.The footnote also includes some other interesting possible implications.I recognize that as a Physicist, I am NOT an expert regardingdietary regimens and such, but the above logic is simply LOGIC!Alternative Energy Devices and SystemsIn alternative energy , there are countlessexamples of where inventors or manufacturers claim unbelievablethings! The fact that neither they nor the public seems awareof the Conservation of Energy, seems to encourage that sortof thing! They actually find ways to keep from being suedby such extravagant claims by describing what is calledPEAK POWER RATINGS, instead of any PRACTICAL POWER RATINGS!I use an analogy of people buying cars that are advertised ashaving 495 horsepower engines. THAT is a PEAK POWER RATING, describingthe GREATEST POSSIBLE POWER PRODUCTION of that engine. It is anirrelevant number, except for a couple seconds at a traffic light!Cars are also described as having a certain fuel efficiency, a numberof MPG, which is a far more useful number to know! That same high-poweredcar actually only produces around 40 horsepower in order to travelat constant speed on an Interstate Highway, where it then gets maybe25 MPG fuel efficiency. THIS is a way of presenting PRACTICAL POWER RATINGS.The two are EXTREMELY different.In nearly all forms of alternative energy products, there is commonlya factor of about ten to one of PEAK power to AVERAGE power.ADVERTISING always presents PEAK power ratings, which are impressive!But they are immensely misleading regarding AVERAGE performance whicha buyer might actually expect to get!So battery-powered vehicles always claim amazing performancewhile also claiming incredible GREENness and also that a standardextension cord can carry enough electricity to recharge it. footnoteIn Hydrogen, the claims are even more outrageous, probably because evenfewer people are capable of determining whether they are right or not.(Use the same footnote as above!)In PV, photovoltaics, ditto, where customers are led to believe thatthey will be generating enormous amounts of electricity for theirfamily to live a normal life. footnoteThe footnotes show that with the simplest of examination, of figuring outhow much (PEAK) power (energy flux) is being claimed and also figuring outhow much (AVERAGE) power is actually likely available from the claimedsource, MANY such claims are immediately seen as wild speculation(or outright lies).The presentations in this Domain virtually always describe AVERAGEperformance, what can be EXPECTED by an actual buyer of such products.There are also clear references to PEAK POWER RATINGS when the veryinflated promotional claims are discussed.Astrophysicists and Nuclear PhysicistsThis kind of questionable thinking even occurs WITHIN the Physicscommunity! Physicists come up with the silliest and wildest speculation,and then aggressively claim it to be true, and NO ONE seems to ever evendo any analysis to see if the claims were credible or even possible!There are many of these, and modern Physics seems to be chock fullof theories which are absolutely devoid of any datadocumentation or support, and usually the author never even PRESENTEDany valid logical case! It didn't use to be like that in Physics!In the old days, you had to provide immaculate logic, mathematics andempirical data to support even the tiniest point. Here is one specificexample that amuses me! A few years back, researchers were grumblingabout the fact that they had no direct access to rocks or other materialsfrom Mars, in pursuit of trying to find whether there was ever waterthere, and possibly even ancient life. So, an unbelievably silly ideawas presented, and it quickly became absolutely accepted by the Physicscommunity. The premise was that tiny rocks, actually meteorites, found buriedin the ice of Antarctica, were (allegedly) all materials that had come from Mars!They claim that either volcanoes on Mars, or incoming meteorites there,caused such explosive blasts that what is called ejecta was launchedupward. They go farther and claim that the impact or the volcano wasso powerful that the ejecta was launched at greater than escape velocityfrom Mars, so that the chunks of material were sent into outer space.And finally they claim that those many particles all hit the Earthin Antarctica and they are therefore SAMPLES of Mars that we can study.There have been many Papers published which claim to describe Marsbased on study of those small Antarctica meteorites.I guess in a common sense way, this could sound possible. But theyused so MANY speculative assumptions in their story! ANY actualexamination of the logic and the numbers shows that to be a trulysilly claim! Do they really believe that millions of tons of theEarth were launched out into space when the (alleged) huge meteoriteended the dinosaur's reign? I doubt it, and on Earth, suchimpacts are far more explosive because of all the water that isaround that can boil and create pressure. But even go wild and say that aMILLION TONS of material from the Earth had gotten launched out intospace back then. How much of that material would have hit Mars to landthere? Well, this is a very simple problem regarding Spherical Geometry.First, consider the Moon, which is very close to us. We can easilycalculate that the Moon takes up about five one-millionths of our wholesky. If material had gotten launched out from Earth in random directions,roughly 0.000005 of it should have hit the (entire area of the) Moon. Not thatcomplicated! If a million tons had gotten launched (an astonishingly large estimate!)only about five tons of it would have likely hit the ENTIRE surface of theMoon. At its AVERAGE distance from us, the angular size of Mars takesup about 1/200,000 the angular area of the Moon, also very easy tocalculate. So how much of the million tons (allegedly) ejected fromEarth would have hit the ENTIRE surface of the planet Mars? Well,that fraction of the five tons, or a TOTAL of LESS THAN ONE-EIGHTH OUNCE ofsuch material spread over the ENTIRE surface of Mars! In the other direction,if Mars had ejected such an enormous amount, a million tons of ejecta,at some point in the past, the situation would have been essentiallythe same, where less than ONE-FOURTH OF AN OUNCE could possibly have hitthe ENTIRE area of Antarctica (smaller than the area of Mars), certainlyTOTALING a size no larger a single kernel of corn! (Keep in mind thatTHIS would have only been possible if Mars had somehow ejected a MILLION TONSof material!)Such very small particles of material tend to burn up as they enter ouratmosphere (as meteors) and only much larger ones usually make it throughthe atmosphere to land. Yet, those (alleged!) Physicists claim to havefound large numbers of such debris in just a very small area of Antarctica.Should DUHH be appropriate? The SIMPLEST of math problems, which you justfollowed, shows how ridiculous that whole idea is!It is sad to note that, at the time this amazing claim was made,there were some scientists who wanted to try to convince NASA to givethem more money for spacecraft to Mars. Science had NOTHING to do withthose alleged discoveries in Antarctica . It was all just politics!Also, they didn't bother to even try to determineWHETHER material could actually be given escapevelocity speed to escape Mars in the first place. That problem is somewhatmore complicated, but it easily shows that there was NO chance that anymassive amount of material was ejected, (just like as is true onEarth when violent volcanic explosions occur) unless the entire planet ofMars was on the verge of being blown apart into two pieces! And even then,not much of it would have ever gone all the millions of miles to softlyland on Antarctica!There is nothing wrong with SPECULATING about such ideas. Creativityis a good thing! But Physicists are SUPPOSED to immediately dosome math and logic analysis to see if what they want to claim iseven possible. In this case, it is NOT REMOTELY POSSIBLE, by proofprovided by very basic Laws of Science. The really troubling thingis that the entire Physics community endorsed and adopted thisinsane concept and it is now considered as virtually a certainty!Didn't ANYONE do those simple math exercises we just looked at?(This HAS been realized as a foolish failure and corrected in the pastfew years since we have landed several robotic landers that haveanalyzed the soil of Mars. Those robots have now found chemicalcompositions of Mars which are absolutely different from the smallchunks of (probably normal meteorite) material that were foundin Antarctica. In fact, once the chemical analysis of those chunks werefinally done [which had NOT been done at first, it was simply ASSUMED],those chunks found in Antarctica seem certain to have been ejectedby EARTH volcanoes! An example of rampant incompetence!)An obvious problem exists in Physics today! There are all sorts of theoriesthrown around such as where someone claims that some large object hit theplanet Uranus so hard that it was knocked on its side to now rotate (veryquickly) strangely (sideways). Or that a similar huge collision knocked theEarth into its tilted axis that causes our seasons. Don't those Physicistsknow even the basics of Gyroscopic Precession where they can easilymathematically prove that such silly ideas are impossible? Or around a dozenother similar claims of powerful impacts that allegedly causedenormous changes in the rotation of some planet. Those things might soundfine to non-Physicists, but in Physics Kindergarten, we all learnedabout the Conservation of Angular Momentum and its many consequencesregarding gyroscopic motions. NO Physicist who has a valid Degreeshould possibly believe that ANY impact could massively alterthe spin axis of any planet. In case they slept that day inKindergarten, they should get a bowling ball spinning fast, suspend iton a gimbal mount and TRY to throw things at it or fire things atit to cause its spin axis to change. Also, allegedly smart scientistsaggressively claim that the many trillions of tons of the Core of theEarth has completely flipped over, to then spin in theopposite direction, HUNDREDS OF TIMES, and even withoutany such ferocious impacts, for their explanation of why many rocks haveevidence of the Magnetic Field of the Earth havingreversed. It turns out that a smart guy about 200 years ago named EulerPROVED that cannot be done! And EVERY Physicist or even Physics studentcan easily do that math to show that such claims are silly!It is not even a very hard problem to prove! How could so many stupidideas have gotten fully adopted as true?The Physics community has quite a few other concepts which haveabsolutely NO actual basis, but which have become universallyaccepted as fact! Around 1912, Einstein developed a mathematical equation,which another scientist, Schwarzschild, solved in 1916. For one specificsituation, Schwarzschild got a mathematical answer that became infinite,because the denominator of his answer became zero, at one specific location.THAT mathematical singularity is the ENTIRE basis for the alleged existenceof Black Holes! People added in assumptions, and later Physicistsaccepted those assumptions as valid and then added on lots of new ones. NOBlack Hole has ever been seen or otherwise detected, but now there are manyBOOKS written regarding subtle details of their (alleged) functioning!Thousands of Physicists have spent their entire careers trying to (mathematically) prove some new assumptions they want to add in! And there may actuallybe no such thing as Black Holes at all!Many or most modern Physicists now believe thatthe MAJORITY of the Universe is in zillions of tiny objects that wecannot see and will never be able to see. And what is the basis for thatDark Matter or Hidden Mass? A SINGLE thing that confused Physicistsof around the 1930s! Hundreds of years ago, a guy named Keplerdiscovered some patterns in the movements of the planets, and thenlater Newton mathematically prove why those patterns existed. The result wasthat Kepler created three laws regarding such things.Kepler and certainly Newton absolutely KNEW that those laws were ONLYvalid BECAUSE nearly all the mass of the Solar System is inside theSun, or what is called a point source. During the 1920s on, understandingof the motions of our Milky Way Galaxy were developing. For someincomprehensible reason, the Physicists decided that Kepler's lawsmust apply for the Galaxy as they do for the Solar System. But thatshould have been immediately obvious to all of them that the mass ofthe Galaxy is all spread out, and it clearly cannot act as thoughall the mass was at a single point. And then theysoon discovered that the motion of the Galaxy does NOT comply withKepler's laws. Unbelievable! They first made a horribly wrongassumption (since the mass of the Galaxy is distributed very broadlyand Newton had earlier proved that Kepler's laws should immediatelyhave been dismissed as not applying),and then decided that we had enormous problems because the Galaxy wasnot rotating as Kepler would have said! How could they have made thefirst huge error, but then how could so many thousands of Physicistsseen all this and not even questioned the bad assumptions? And thendozens of foolish speculations which have all been dreamed up toresolve the (invalid) problems they saw existing! (There actually IS arather simple and obvious explanation of why the Galaxy rotates asit does, and it is entirely based on SIMPLE gravitation as Newtonpresented it!)As often happens, I am rambling! Sorry! I realize that you are aninnocent bystander and here is some cranky Physicist railing about anextremely small number of pseudo-intellectuals! But there are half a dozenOTHER major areas within Physics where truly poor assumptions hadbeen made and that NO ONE then challenged them! So, in my opinion, modernPhysics is currently pretty screwed up! Physicists seem free to dreamup the most outrageous idea and then get silly ideas adopted withoutmuch question! It is truly sad.Please tolerate one more! One you were probably taught in school was theTwins Paradox, where Einstein's Relativity Theory allegedly would causeidentical twins to become different ages! General Relativity certainly hasmany peculiar consequences,but THAT does not happen to be one of them. Some Physicists made a reallypoor assumption in the early 1960s, and no one ever questioned orchallenged their claims! It is very frustrating, as Physics is commonlyconsidered as the very pinnacle of intellectual fields. How is itpossible that so many very wrong ideas get developed and immediately getfully adopted as true?I will chill out regarding Physics subjects and move on to thingsyou are probably actually interested in! As much as it is possiblefor me to do that! I have web-pages about each of those subjects, whichare listed in the Advanced Physics link listing section below.Just to confirm that I am not your average egghead: This Domaincontains some really weird things! Modifying a COW to possibly becomea SUPER-COW? footnote14 Should thisguy be put in a padded cell?I have discovered a fascinating pattern in people! People who considerthemselves to be important NEVER have the time to actually READany things such as my presentations. So they NEVER have the slightest chanceof actually learning whether there is anything of value in any of this!In more than 14 years of these presentations being on the Internetin this Domain, countless thousands of people have visited, and manyof them have actually READ a presentation or two! But important people never Surf the web-in the first place, but even if they do,they seem unwilling to allocate more than 15 seconds to anypresentation! So at most, they read a sentence or two. In an amusingrelated fact, just from those 15 seconds, many of them then ASSUMEthat they have a COMPLETE UNDERSTANDING of the entire presentation(which often took a number of years to research)!(They are virtually always wrong about that!) There have actuallybeen several dozen of those important people who havevisited my presentation on Global Warming. I have received somevery insulting e-mails from such people (or more often theirunderlings who can waste the time to send an e-mail to me!)where they rip into me for not understanding the Solar Constantand using a wrong and obsolete value for it (where they neverread enough of my presentation to see that I include one of themost comprehensive discussions anywhere on that matter!); ormy not understanding the effects of carbon dioxide in theatmosphere (again, they never read enough to find that I againinclude one of the world's most comprehensive discussion onthat matter!). I suppose it is really easy to be spoutingcriticisms when you simply ASSUME you know what the text of a presentationactually says! Sort of funny, actually! But it essentiallyresults in NO actual leader in any government or major businessever being aware of the contents of these pages! But many thousandsof average citizens actually read and then (hopefully)actually learn interesting and important stuff! Go figure!(I have a feeling that in ten or twenty more years, some of those peopleMIGHT actually decide to FIND THE TIME to read one or more of thesepresentations. In some cases, that will be far too late forany actual actions on their part. I find that extremely sad.Of course, maybe they are correct in simply blowing all this stuffoff. There have been Physicists before me who have only hadworthless and garbage ideas! Who can say for sure that I don'tbelong in that category? It is up to any reader, who ACTUALLYwould read any of these presentations, to try to determine that!An important comment seems appropriate here! I was educated at theUniversity of Chicago as a scientist, and it seems that they dida fairly good job inside my skull. I actually think they FAIL withmany of their other students, but for a peculiar reason! Nearlyall of my classmates in Nuclear Physics were incredibly arrogant!They simply could not imagine that they would EVER make any error!In my opinion, they therefore probably made lousy scientists!What an outrageous thing to say! Here is why. ALL humans sometimes makemistakes, make poor assumptions, use poor logic, and arrive at poorconclusions. Even them! Even me! A CRITICAL characteristic of being agood scientist is to NOT TRUST OR ASSUME ANYTHING!UC (forced) me to take a Graduate-Level Mathematics class which I thoughtat the time was the dumbest ever! It was a 13-week course, which hada single goal, to prove that 1 + 1 = 2! Do you agree in my initialattitude? The Professor spent the first THREE WEEKS proving inexquisite detail that1 + 1 was not LESS than exactly 2. Part of the reasoning was, what ifwe had not been measuring accurately enough, that maybe 1 + 1actually equaled 1.99999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999and we just THOUGHT that quantity was 2! Then three more weeks provingthat it was not GREATER than exactly 2. Then three weeks moreto prove that the sum was not a Complex number (which might have hada Real component of 2 but also an Imaginary component).And more weeks proving that the sum of 1 + 1 did not happen to bein some Other Dimension (where again, the VISIBLE part might havethen looked like 2). On the last day of Class in that thirteenthweek, the Professor closed out the logic, of establishing that1 + 1 was NOT equal to any other number or quantity, and thereforeBY DEFAULT it WAS proven that it was exactly equal to 2!Why was that Course so important to me? For two separate importantreasons. First, as a good scientist, it was CRITICAL to NEVERASSUME something is true, just because it LOOKS like it is true.(For thousands of years, everyone on Earth believed that the Earthwas Flat, and that it could not possibly be spinning at over 1000 mphor hurtling through space at 66,000 mph in going around that brightthing up in the sky [the Sun]).Second, it is equally critical to NOT ASSUME THAT YOU ARE RIGHT!Sadly, I know many Physicists who have such huge egos that theycannot imagine that they could ever be wrong, and so even whenthey dream up silly speculations, they insist that they are correct(without providing any proof or support other than their speculation.)SOOOOO! I am highly critical of many people who call themselvesscientists who have this self-absorbed attitude! The CORRECTattitude of a good scientist is to ALWAYS ASSUME YOU ARE WRONG,and then therefore start doing the math and Physics to try toconfirm that you are right.As to 1 + 1 = 2: Two brilliant men, Alfred North Whitehead and BertrandRussell had published a set of three books, Principia Mathematica(1910-1913) which first presented this mathematical proof. It had takenthem around ten years and around 200 pages (in PM) for that proof .In my case, I OFTEN have come up with dumb ideas which really sounded good to start with, but then when the(mandatory) math and strict logic was applied, showed themselvesto be the dumb ideas they were!So THIS is the lesson of this Commentary: IF you want to be a qualityscientist, you MUST generally assume that your ideas had been wrong,and then immediately dig into the necessary math and Physicsto try to confirm or deny your ideas! Let's build a4,200-foot-long bridge across the Golden Gate waterway. Will itfall down? I dunno, let's build it and find out! .Science (and Engineering) cannot be like that!The presentations in this Domain often include a lot of (annoying)formulas and calculations! Generally, they are provided so thatany reader might then be able to do the math toconfirm or deny statements made. After all, are you SURE that 1 + 1 = 2?If a reader of this happens to be an electronics technician or hobbyist,I would have great interest in discussing the possibility of hiringor collaborating on several of these projects that involve variouslevels of advanced electronic circuitry. It has really been veryfrustrating for me to not have the necessary advanced microwaveelectronics skills to get my Rape Prevention System (PSST)Rape Prevention Personal Security System - PSSToperational. Microwave is not necessary for the Non-IntrusiveElectronic Medical Anesthesia, but I still do not have sufficientskills in those areas. A far simpler system is a game system toencourage children to be extremely active to minimize obesity.On a different front, if a reader happens to be good atCompositional skills, the weaknesses of these many presentationsare pretty evident, even to me! I was trained in College asa Physicist, and my whole life has had strong interests in math andscience. NOT in Composition! Rearranging many of the presentationswould make them much more readable, no doubt! People usually smile whenI tell them that I actually TRY to compose introductory and closingparagraphs, and to not do so much repeating of concepts! I really,really have tried! These are abilities I do not seem to have.In a few cases, the existing web-page is around the fiftiethrevision, and you DON'T want to know what the first one was like!So, there are a few which are now tolerable , but only dueto massive efforts! I am absolutely sure that an English Majorcould re-arrange and re-word a presentation in an hour or less.Volunteers would be appreciated, even if it only regarding aspecific subject presentation that interests you! However, theseveral people who have offered to re-write mypages seem to have all been insistent in massively CHANGING concepts orignoring the science or the math. I have realized that theirmotives have been good, of enhancing understandability, but whydo they seem to insist on introducing their OWN improvements to scientific concepts which I had spent months or years instudying? In any case, I cannot say that I really want toconvert any of my pages into 15-second sound-bytes which presentTHEIR ideas rather than my research. So this area has beendisappointing so far.There is yet another situation where a talented writer who understandssome science might want to get involved! In 1989, I composed anoutline for a story which is technically science fiction but it is sosolidly based on actual science that it might turn out to actually betrue scientifically! I would think that some talented author who waswilling to work with me might make an impressive reputation and career,as well as bushel baskets of money! I have decided to present thebasic outline of the first few Chapters (of 25 Chapters of the entirestory), such that a prospective author might get a glimpse of the basic ideas ofmy book.

One version could be a prison for non-violent males, such as drug-offenders, where there are no cells or bars but many small bungalow houses. Inmates would be free to go out into fields to grow food crops or go to work in shops to make their clothing or shoes, or to work to build more bungalows or provide other services. Instead of being the current cost of around $100,000 per year per inmate for Federal prisoners, these inmates would be of minimal cost, mostly for only a few nearby Guard boats and Guards. The society on this artificial island would be nearly self-sustaining, and Inmates that enjoy the experience would be allowed to stay and be paid for their work after their time is done. They would learn how to live in society, and so they would likely be wonderful citizens after their time is done. Separate Women's Prisons too.

(June 2007) Tornadoes - The Physics of How They Form and Operate, including How they Form. A potential energy source (Feb. 2000, May 2009)I never would have guessed that I would ever have Researched the followingstory. I have spent a very conservative and honest lifetime, and spenta fifty year career in Theoretical Physics and simultaneously a twenty-fiveyear career as a Minister in a small Christian Church during a careeras a respected Christian Theologian. It still seems shocking to me that asmall group of municipal bureaucrats would go to astounding efforts andexpenses to entirely destroy my career as a Minister and my reputationas a very respected man. It took a number of years for me to discover themassive evidence of many of the things they did. I still have to guessabout certain details, such as the likelihood that a small town PoliceDepartment might be able to amass the 700,000 porn photos that they managedto (somehow) insert into the turned-off computer inside my securely lockedhouse, and even how they did that. It appears that a Thornton Villageemployee installed a small shiny metal electronic device inside theAT T equipment box outside the house, apparently around April 2002, whichan AT T technician only discovered there in May 2008. A cross-the-streetneighbor (Herb) often told me of seeing the Mayor's part-time secretary(Karen Leoni) walk down the street three evenings every week (or around900 total times during those six years) and that she would then STANDmotionless near my house for about 12 to 15 minutes each time. He wouldlaugh as he described her doing that during winter blizzards in Februaryor during rainstorms, but whatever reason she had for doing that, it musthave been really important to her. It was only six years later, when theAT T technician found the electronic device inside their equipment box andwalked across my yard to SCREAM AT ME as he thought that I had put thatdevice inside their equipment. In any case, after six years of unlockingmy house and then turning my computer on to find that another thousand pornphotos had somehow appeared inside the turned-off computer, that particularactivity immediately and completely stopped after that. I also noticed thatwhen I WAS home and using the computer, it no longer severely slowed downfor about fifteen minutes three times each week. It would appear thatthe their (illegal) electronic device must have been slowing down mycomputer (or the AT T equipment) in transferring her photo files fromher device to the AT T equipment and then to my computer, as all that endedwhen the AT T technician found their electronics.I generally deleted all the new photos I would find. I never counted thembut my guess is that at least 100,000 of the photos were nudist pictures(which I do not think are illegal) and another 100,000 of the photoswere of elderly, obese women at male-strip clubs. I don't know if suchphotos are illegal, but there being so many such photos seemed to confirmthat Police departments were likely to be the source for them, as I couldnot imagine anyone else even wanting to see such pictures. However, I haveto wonder that if Police install surveillance cameras inside male-strip clubs,wouldn't that be illegal Fourth Amendment violations? I also would imaginethat if Police Departments have huge supplies of such pictures of nakedelderly matrons having sex in male-strip clubs, that would likely be possibleblackmail photos of wives of rich and powerful old men.Thornton must have made some assumptions regarding me being like othermen. As it happened, I had never had much interest in going with othermen friends to look at women dancing. In fact, I believe that it was onlyonce in my life that I had a year subscription to Playboy, and that was froma birthday present in 1973 from my then-wife.A lot of other evidence over the years seemed to imply that Thorntonintended to some day send a SWAT Team to my house, to find all those photos that the Mayor's part-time secretary had put into mycomputer over six years of work! By late 2005, I realized that I might havetrouble denying such claims, so by early 2006, I had collected all themassive evidence that a good scientist could amass and I uploaded allof this information (and more), in case Thornton decided to try to frameme for their 'fake' evidence. I thought that THIS information might bethe best possible evidence for a Judge to see and read, to hopefullykeep Thornton from somehow sending me to Guantanamo Prison in Cuba.I had only intended this information to be as EVIDENCE for a singleperson to ever read, a Judge, toward a possible Defense, but it appearsthat more than 50,000 people have read my Thornton information in thetwelve years my web-site information has been on the Internet. That appearsto be more visitors than the official Thornton village web-site has gotten!The neighbor (Herb) and his wife also regularly noticed that the Mayor'spart-time secretary would walk down the street on early Tuesday mornings(garbage day) to open up my garbage can to dig around in there. Herbwas actually not that concerned about her dumpster diving in MY garbagebut he was worried about whether she might also dig through HIS garbageas well. He said that he never saw her going through HIS garbage. Andneither of us had a clue about what she hoped to find in MY garbage.I am a pleasant and friendly person, and I often had friendly conversationswith the Bank Tellers at my bank. One day late in 2005, the Teller askedme about WHY I was checking my bank balance every single day. I told her that I did not even know you could do that. She looked intoit and found that ALL of those inquiries about my bank balance came fromthe same phone number, that of the Secretary of the Thornton PoliceDepartment (who was the very same person, Karen Leoni). I never learnedwhy she cared so much about my daily bank balance.For the first several years of this, no one in Thornton was aware that I wasa very respected Minister of our Christian Church, A Christ Walk Churchsixty miles away in Kingsbury, Indiana. But they definitely demonstrated thatthey were ferociously defensive of their own little group and it seemed that, since they were unaware that I was a Christian Minister, they were amazinglyaggressive in destroying me and my reputation. There seemed to be nolimit to what they would do to me. At least twice in 2002, while I wasstill living at our Church in Indiana, that same Karen Leoni had entered mylocked house to spend hours in vandalizing its contents. I know thesedetails because I HATE Diet Soda, and on two trips to mow the Thornton grass,when I unlocked my house to get inside, there was an empty can of DietSoda sitting next to my kitchen sink, which had what turned out to be KarenLeoni's fingerprints on the pop can(s). A few months later, in September 2002,three Thornton Police cars took three different kids out of the WolcottElementary School to, as the children later described, interrogateeach of them about me! . (That story is described below). At threedifferent dates in 2003 (April 1, June 25 and August 22), Thornton startedthe paperwork to have my house Condemned and then Demolished. (That storyis also described below.) One day I had my car sitting in front of thegarage with the hood open and the engine off, as I was replacing the sparkplugs. A great song came on the radio so I sat down in the driver's seatto listen to it. A Thornton Cop drove up and he told me that I was inviolation of Seat Belt Laws and he was going to give me a $120 ticket.Note: engine OFF, hood OPEN, in front of my garage. I actually wondered whata Judge would say about this. The Cop must have realized the same becausehe decided to not give me that ticket. On a different day, in May 2010, abelt failed in my TORO lawnmower and I could not finish mowing a very smallarea of my lawn (about the size of my living room). Thornton informed methat they Filed a Lien on my house for $200 for that.At least two hundred other types of harassment were directed at me bythe Village of Thornton, Illinois during the following fifteen years.Some are mentioned below. Thornton certainly regularly made sure to alertthe 800 families in Thornton to avoid me. The chance of any career as aChristian Minister in a small town are ZERO when the town goes to extensiveeffort to make sure that absolutely no one in Thornton even ever acknowledgesme or waves to me or say hello. My previous life as a very popular ChristianMinister had everyone wanting to talk to me or wave to me. In sixteenyears in Thornton, Illinois, NO ONE has ever done any of thoseneighborly actions. So ANY career in Thornton for me, especially anythinglike a Christian Minister, has been eliminated for me by the Village. Amazingly Bad Behavior of the Village of Thornton, IllinoisWe all want to believe that Police would never lie to the public. I wish!On July 21, 2002, one of their own Thornton Police Officers, andwho was also the Fire Chief of Thornton, Illinois, Chief John W. Klaczak,was arrested for having molested some young boys in his Fire CadetProgram, apparently for several years. The Village apparentlyfelt media pressure and decided to try to smear the reputation ofa stranger, me, who happened to be a Christian Minister (which theydid not know!), and who then lived 65 miles away in a differentState (Indiana), to try to distract the newspaper and televisionattention from their own failings.So, during the first week of school in September 2002, five weeks aftertheir Fire Chief Klaczak had been Arrested, they sent three PoliceCars to the local Wolcott Elementary School to take three children outof three different Grades of school for a day to interrogate them (the children's later description) about me! No one in theVillage or their Police Department ever talked to me about any of this!In fact, I was unaware that any of this had even happened untilthree years later (May 2005) when those children happened to overcome theirfears and visited me and told me! And each Officer hadmade up slightly DIFFERENT lies, all horrific, which they told thosechildren. The oldest boy, then 12, was told that the Police had absolute proof that I had supposedly molested dozens ofother little boys before him! (It seems rather clear to me that ifsuch claims had actually been true, then such a criminal wouldhave been spending many years in Prison, rather than spending yearsas a popular Christian Minister of a little 501-C-3 Church in Indiana!)The Officers obviously had LIED to the children to try to get anyof them to AGREE with what the Police had told them (and I certainly wouldthen have been hauled off to some Prison for the rest of my life).The Officers were clearly unaware that I was a Christian Minister, andthat I had even given several Sermons regarding the many terribletreatments that children are forced to endure. The Officers wereclearly hoping that I had at least TOUCHED one of the kids at some time(which I had never done, not even a handshake!), and that any or allof the three children might have said something which seemed to supportthe lies that the Police Officers had made up. They knew thatlittle kids would never doubt Police Officers! The Police Officersobviously realized that a nine-year-old girl would not understand thatsame lie about homosexuality, so the different Officer made up DIFFERENTlies which they told to her. A third set of lies were made up to tell theother boy.It is frightening how possible it might have been for any of thosechildren who might have been so intimidated by being Interrogated byPolice as to simply agree with any of those Police lies, and I wouldhave then spent the rest of my life in Prison somewhere! The childrenwere SCARED (which I only learned three years later when they nexttalked to me), and apparently the next day, the rumors around thatSchool were conveniently filled in by the Police and by Villageemployees, so everyone in the Village knew of those liesEXCEPT FOR ME!Five years later (May 2007), in a casual conversation with thegirl who had been nine during the interrogation she happened tomake a pretty bizarre comment to me about the Police Officerwho had interrogated her in Sept 2002. She was older then (14)and she smiled as she asked if I knew why the Officer had askedher about two dozen times if I had been wearing pantsor shorts while I had been pulling weeds in my yard or while I had beenmowing my lawn! How dare a Police Officer ask a little girl, over andover, such an aberrant question? Does Thornton have a Dress Code for people who were pulling weeds in their own yard? Her 14-year-oldsmile suggested to me that she realized how bizarre the PoliceOfficer had been. I have long wondered since she informed meof that Twilight Zone type stuff if there is an officialtranscript of that interrogation of her, where two dozensuch questions by the Thornton Police Officer might be in someofficial archive! But I cannot imagine that the ThorntonPolice Department could be so stupid as to KEEP such transcripts!My guess is that such records have been conveniently lost !Many years later, I think that I may have figured out WHY and HOW Thorntonhad decided to make up such vicious lies against me, which certainlytotally ended my career as a Christian Minister and as a respectedperson, although, since NO ONE EVER TALKED TO ME ABOUT ANY OF THIS (exceptfor those three children, years after the fact, I have no way toPROVE that this is what Thornton had done. Unless the Thornton VillagePolice or the Thornton Municipal government still have the officialtranscripts of those interrogations of those children,there probably is no way to prove that this is what they did.Beginning in early 1997, our Church uploaded thousands of scholarlyChristian articles onto the Internet, and within months, we were gettingastounding numbers of people, around the world, who were reading thosearticles. Our tiny Church is in a desolate area in northern Indiana,and our computer with which we answered e-mail (Christian) questionswas in our Church. At that time, the Internet was very new and a veryslow telephone modem was the only way to receive or send e-mails. Evenbefore the end of 1997, I was already spending 12 to 16 hours every dayin reading and answering such e-mails. My life was exclusively in e-mailsand sleeping! At that time, much of e-mails was junk e-mails .A young man who lived near our Church offered to help out. He could notactually answer the Christian questions, but he was very helpful inREADING the e-mails and deleting the junk e-mails. This was wonderful,as now I only had to spend 6 to 8 hours every day in answering thee-mail questions.The young man had a key to the Church so he came and went as he wished.Initially, I did not realize that he soon started spending severalhours every day on the Internet (when I was not around). By 2002,I started to realize that he had been spending his time on porn web-sites.I got rid of him as soon as I realized what he had been doing, event thoughI then was again spending 12 to 16 hours every day in reading and answeringe-mail religious questions. Many years later, I came to suspect thatSOMEBODY must have been monitoring the porn activities, whether it wasthe phone company or the police or someone else. Since the internetconnection was begun by ME to do the Church activities, I am now temptedto think that somebody might have thought that I was doing bad things. But no one ever came to our Church to ask and noone ever telephoned or wrote to me or the Church about any such things,which is why I had not ever known about any of that porn anyway. Theyoung man must have deleted all references to whatever porn sites he hadvisited, as I never found any evidence on our Church computer about anythinglike that.Even into 2002, I was still living in the Church in Indiana, and onlydriving over the 65 miles each way to this Illinois house about once everythree weeks, entirely because I had to mow the lawn.But during 2002, Thornton began to do bizarre things that eventuallyforced me to permanently move to this Illinois address after that.For example (as described below), Thornton sent someone to break intomy house , at least twice. Nothing seemed to be stolen, but all myneatly stacks of papers had been seriously vandalized, kicked or thrownall over the house. Both were really peculiar, in that a can of dietpop was left next to the kitchen sink both times. Clearly, the vandal(s)had spent considerable amounts of time INSIDE MY LOCKED HOUSE, but I hadno idea what the purpose was or who had done it. I carefully preservedboth of the empty soda cans in plastic bags and I bought a fingerprint kitto collect many perfect fingerprints from each of those cans. The sameperson clearly had entered my house both times. I now suspect that someonehad entered my house in the hopes of finding evidence ofthose earlier activities of a young man in Kingsbury, as Thorntonclearly ASSUMED that it was ME and not the young man who had previouslybeen using the Church computer to visit sex sites. In any case, SOMEONEwas clearly breaking into my house, at least twice in 2002, which inspiredme to move to the Illinois house. There was really NO REASON for me tomove there, except to try to DEFEND MY HOUSE from whoever was breakinginto it. I had the fingerprints, but it took me about two years beforeI finally KNEW that it had been the Mayor's Secretary, a Karen Leoni,who had been the person who had broken into my house. (Since I movedinto the Thornton house, and I am usually inside the house, I am notaware of any further times of anyone breaking into my house.) (I laterlearned that the same Karen Leoni was only a PART-TIME secretary to theMayor but she was also the PART TIME secretary of the Thornton PoliceDepartment. THAT explained why I had not found any broken windows ordoors during the break-ins, as all Police Departments have methodsof getting into any buildings or vehicles without breaking anything.I also later discovered that twenty years earlier, when my mother hadlived in the house, she had several Medical emergencies and she hadgiven the Thornton Police a duplicate key to the house, which seemsto have now disappeared from the Police Department. The one personwho had easy access to that duplicate key was Karen Leoni, and I laterconfirmed that it was HER FINGERPRINTS which were on the empty dietsoda cans left on my kitchen counter, twice, in 2002).It then appears that the Thornton Police, or probably, more specificallythat same Karen Leoni, spend the next several years in trying to setup an arrest of me. I was then daily playing horseshoes with Herb E,who lived directly across the street from me. His house has a picturewindow, and Herb and his wife nearly constantly sat in easy chairsfacing the picture window. So they were aware of EVERYTHING that happenedin the neighborhood. One day during horseshoes, he mentioned that he andhis wife (now both deceased) saw that at around 7:30 p.m., Karen Leoniwould walk the block down fromher house to mine, usually three times every week, to then JUST STANDat the exact same spot on the sidewalk, and Herb said that she ALWAYSfaced the same direction, toward my house. He was mystified that shealways stood motionless for about 12 to 15 minutes each time, and thenshe would walk back home. Herb laughed when he described Leoni standingin heavy rain or sleet or snow, but still doing the EXACT same actions.He also was amazed that several times during February, he saw her stillstanding there for the 12 to 15 minutes when the temperature was aroundZERO (Fahrenheit). Herb later guessed that she had done that same at least700 times, where he calculated 'three times every week times 52 weekstimes more than four and a half years (2002-2007)'. But we could not figureout WHY she was so methodical about this.I still had a telephone modem connection to the internet. I had noticedthat sometimes, around 7:30 p.m., if I had been answering e-mails on theinternet, that the computer connection would seriously slow down, forabout ten to fifteen minutes, and then it would get back up to the usualmodem speed. I had no idea why THAT was happening either. At that time, Ihad not yet realized that my computer internet access seemed to alwaysgreatly slow down at the SAME TIME that Karen Leoni was standing outin the sidewalk, facing my house.In May 2008, I was sitting in my yard, pulling weeds, when someone fromAT T walked up to their equipment in their gray box on the side of myhouse. He soon STORMED across my yard to me to start screaming at me!He was accusing me of having put some piece of electronic equipment inside the AT T gray box. I walked over with him to see an aluminumdevice in there, about 4 inches tall and 1.5 inches in diameter, with a fewwires which seemed to connect to their wires. This was all a surprise tome and so I then did not see the connection of all of the above. But I wishit had dawned on me to ask him if I could keep that electronic device,and better, to try to get fingerprints off of it. But he took it away(probably to throw it away).About a week later, this had all logically fit together. I now am certainthat Karen Leoni's fingerprints would have been found on that electronicdevice, and that SHE had put it in there so that she could use some portableelectronic device to monitor my telephone and internet activity and alsoto be able to (somehow) INSERT files into my (sometimes shut off) computer.THIS seemed be the specific reason why she STOOD OUT THERE 700 differenttimes for 12 to 15 minutes each time, to be able to insert files into mycomputer such that she could later tell the Thornton Police to do an arreston me for having inappropriate photo files in my computer. I was being set up . Amazingly methodically, as she made 700 separate tripsdown the sidewalk to stand while her electronics was (somehow) loading filesinto my computer.I later realized a possible change in this understanding. Rather thanmy earlier assumption that she was somehow turning on my computer toinsert the files , I now wonder if, instead, she was just transferringher files into her electronic device inside the AT T equipment box , wherethen, whenever I would turn the computer on, all those files might havegotten transferred from her device into my computer, just as the computerwas booting up, something which might have occurred very fast. I don't actuallyknow which of these two she did. Initially, I leaned toward the herturning on my computer because some guy in California had told me thathis local Police had done the exact same thing to him, where they hadsome way to turn on his computer without anyone ever being in his house.In any case, over roughly a six-year period (2002-2008), Karen Leoni had insertedaround 700,000 porn photos into my computer by her 700 adventures ofstanding motionless for 12 to 15 minutes each evening, three times everyweek.When I would drive over to mow the lawn during 2002, and I turned the(Church) computer on, I benefited by using the antique Windows 95 operatingsystem. All the newer OSs keep it secret when anyone inserts filesinto a computer, but Win95 always made it very easy for me to find allthe files she had inserted into my computer. In some cases, I was amazedto find 7,000 files which she had inserted. Until recently, I thought shehad done that during a single standing but if her electronic device couldaccept her files and store them, then she might have stood there maybenine times in the previous three weeks since the last mowing. So shemay have had to stand there for her 12 to 15 minutes to only insert athousand files into my computer at a time. I just SAW the 7,000 new fileswhen I came to the then generally vacant house.I realize that the phone company probably THOUGHT that I was accessingall those files from some porn sites, which was obviously what KarenLeoni intended. But she clearly did NOT know that, nearly always, I wouldimmediately DELETE those 7,000 files (entirely due to still using theantique Win95 OS). If she WOULD have gotten the Thornton Police to make a raid (in order to find the thousands of photos that SHE hadinserted into my computer), they would NOT HAVE FOUND ANYTHING.I later realized how methodical Karen Leoni had been at trying to causeme to be arrested, that I added the THORNTON web-page into my InternetDomain (in 2006). I pretty much conceded that she was not going tostop, and since she was also the part-time Secretary of the ThorntonPolice Department, it probably only awaited her thinking she had insertedenough nasty photos to ensure that the Police would find something. So,I composed the Thornton internet web-page with the intention that it would onlybeen seen TWICE, once by some Lawyer for me and then by the Judge thatwould be deciding whether to send me to prison for all the effort thatKaren Leoni went to.In the twelve years that my Thornton web-page has been on the Internet,it turns out that more than 35,000 people have read my Thornton internet page so far. I wonderif some people have decided to NOT move to Thornton after having readmy accounts of how as Christian Minister has been treated in thisVillage? The population of Thornton seems to be dropping. I wonderif there is any connection.I also bought and installed five different motion sensors and fiveoutdoor video cameras and a VHS recorder, NOT to defend my house fromcriminals, but rather to defend my house from the Thornton municipalgovernment and its local Police Department. The next time Thorntondecided to break into my house, I would not only have the fingerprintslike before but now also an actual videotape of their approaching andbreaking into the house. I had sent some e-mails about my new motionsensors and video cameras to friends, and since Karen Leoni constantlymonitored my phone and e-mail, she immediately knew about this change.As far as I know, no one from Thornton has again broken into my houseafter I installed the motion sensors and video cameras.I realize that I would never have any way to PROVE many of these actionsby Thornton, Illinois. Even though I definitely confirmed that it wasKaren Leoni who had brought the diet pop cans into my locked house, noJudge would accept that as she would simply deny it was her. Ditto forher fingerprints on some POSTAL MAIL that I had mailed to my house, whereI used gloves to fold the typewritten letter to make sure that nofingerprints were anywhere on the letter, but when the (three separateexperiments) letters arrived, they each HAD fingerprints which turnedout to be Karen Leoni's. And since Herb and his wife are now deceased,I can't even confirm that Karen Leoni had stood outside my house 700times, motionless and staring at my house (or actually, staring at thegray AT T equipment box that contained her electronic device inside it).I might be a slow learner! Now that I am on WiFi, I again accepted ayoung man who offered to help in the relentless e-mails from religionspeople. In each of the past 18 years, my Domain traffic has confirmedthat one million people every week have accessed my web-pages (which is 50 million hits every year). (21,000 of my 23,000 web-pagesare specifically on scholarly religious articles, so the mass of mytraffic has continued to be religious in nature.) In any case, late in2017, I discovered that the young man (DIFFERENT from the earlier one)had apparently also been using our Church computer and WiFi to accessporn web-sites. He also had tried to delete all such references, butmodern Operating Systems keep (hidden) copies of all such files so Ifound them and immediately chased him off! I guess I am destined tospend a life of constantly answering e-mails, without any help.I had been Saved as a Christian in 1965, partly because my girl friend then wasan extremely fervent Christian. As sometimes happens with new Christians,it occurred in an instant and in a peculiar situation. She and I had gone todowntown Chicago to have dinner and then go to a movie there. We were holdinghands as the cartoons were showing prior to the main feature movie.VERY suddenly, I became Saved! I remember turning to her and tellingher that we needed to leave the theater and to find a Church nearby, asI wanted to get Baptized! (I had been Baptized twice as a child, withoutactually knowing what was going on. At a picnic at Cedar Lake, Indiana,some man [who must have been a Minister] took several of us little kidswading out into the lake, and then he came up behind me and flippedme over backwards to nearly drown me under water. I came up coughingas I was full of water, very confused, and terrified. For some years, Iwas very negative regarding whatever Christianity was.)From age 19 on, I was a pretty solid Christian, although I was often verydisappointed in a number of individual Churches and Ministers.Much later, in 1991, I attended some Meetings in the basement of a large localChurch, and I was amazed at how poorly informed many of the speakerswere, where they expressed things that were clearly wrong regardingChristianity. I had bought a new computer about then, and it came witha variety of CD-ROMs, one of which was a collection of thousands ofChristian scholarly articles and texts. I was learning a lot about computerprogramming then and I decided to 'invent' a 'compressed computer language'where I squeezed several hundred of those scholarly Christian articlesto fit on a 1.44 MB floppy diskette, along with the de-compressionprogramming and formatting. I then bought a hundred blank floppy diskettesand put all that scholarly Christian information on the floppy diskettes.Between 1992 to 1996, I created and handed out around 400 of those floppydiskettes, to anyone who I thought might benefit from the information.I refused accepting any payment for the floppy diskettes and so I spentaround $400 in buying all those blank floppy diskettes. I have no ideahow many people ever actually stuck the floppy diskettes in theircomputers, and I always hoped that at least a few did. The program Icreated was self-loading and self-starting, so anyone who tried tolook at the 'BELIEVE Floppy Diskette' would see a list of Christiansubjects to pick on and click, to read the scholarly articles.In June 1996, another man and I began our 'A Christ Walk Church'. Fora while, we met in restaurants and in my house basement. He eventually leftand I continued being the Pastor of the A Christ Walk Church.In January 1997, AOL advertised on television a FREE opportunity totry the new 'Internet' thing. Since it was free, I signed up. I didnot really understand what it meant to 'upload files to the Internet,but AOL also said that it was also free to upload up to 2.0 MB of files.I imagine that most people had photos of their dogs and cats and children,but all I had was my BELIEVE Floppy Diskette program, so I uploaded it. Atthat time, uploading was amazingly slow (1200 baud) over a telephone modeminterface, so it took around two hours for me to upload the floppydisk files to the Internet. I figured that if even ONE person woulddownload and then use the BELIEVE program and files, that would be agood thing. In the next few weeks, over 400 people downloaded theBELIEVE information!I was not entirely sure just what happened, but I did notice that 400people obtained the entire BELIEVE set of files in just a few weeks,where it had taken me four years of buying $400 of floppy diskettesand formatting them and handing them out to individuals. That HAD to bea good thing!I did not stay with AOL but I contracted with an Internet Server inMay 1997. Within weeks, thousands and then millions of people downloadedBELIEVE. Within a couple years, 1999, more than 20,000,000 people wereaccessing the BELIEVE Internet articles every year. Again, if even ONEperson had downloaded BELIEVE and gotten some benefit from reading whata Christian scholar had written, I would have been happy.I had bought an old factory building in northern Indiana in October 1976, andwas not really using it for manufacturing woodstoves any more, so by 1996,that building began to be used for our A Christ Walk Church. I convertedpart of the eastern part of the building into an 'apartment' or 'Dormitory',where I then lived. I had expected to live there forever afterward.By the end of 1997, the BELIEVE web-site was already getting enormousamounts of traffic. A friend noticed that my Domain was getting morevisitors than even the US PGA golf web-site was getting. Really amazing.And a LOT of people were sending in e-mail questions about religion.It soon got to be that another e-mail question came in every FOUR MINUTES,day and night. I was often taking ten minutes to research and compose myresponses so I was ONLY answering e-mail, fourteen hours every day, and I wasstill getting farther and farther behind. A young man who lived near our AChrist Walk Church in Kingsbury, Indiana offered to help me answer e-mail.At that time, all sorts of businesses had begun to send massive bulke-mails and junk mail, and even though he could not answer any of the religiousquestions, he was wonderfully helpful in reading through incoming e-mailsto delete the junk mails.This improved MY life into ONLY needing to spend 8 to 10 hours on most daysin answering the actual religious questions.The young man had a key to the Church building so he came and went as hepleased. Eventually, by about 2001, even though this was still reallyhelping regarding the e-mails, I had begun to be concerned about somethingelse. Whenever I was NOT around the Church, I came to notice that therewas a lot of traffic on the telephone modem. I wasn't actually sure ofwhat he was doing on the computer when I was not around, but I began to havesome concerns. The 'memory' of the computer began to start including a lotof photographs of young girls. Many years later, I came to realize that the young man had apparently beenaccessing porn web-sites on the Church's computer. When someone doesthat, I still don't really know if or how anyone else could know about it,but I have come to wonder if someone in some government might have thoughtthat this had been ME using the Church computer for such things. I still donot know for sure, but that might explain some rather bizarre incidentsI experienced in 2002, in Thornton. Even thought the young guy was really helpingme by deleting many thousands of junk e-mails, I suggested that he stop'helping' our Church in early 2002.In 1997, my mother had passed on, and she left a vacant house in Thornton,Illinois. The house remained empty, but every couple weeks during thesummer, I had to drive across the 65 miles from the Church to mow the Thorntonlawn. I eventually started moving stacks of my scientific and religiousresearch papers from the Church to various rooms in the large (empty) Thorntonhouse. I found it easier to find and look through all of my research on themany areas of scientific research which I studied.One time in mid-2002 when I had driven across to mow the Thornton lawn, andI unlocked the door to get into the securely locked house, I found a lot ofvandalism that had occurred inside the house. There was nothing of valuein the old house, but many of my stacks of papershad clearly been kicked over. On the kitchen sink counter, there was a canof diet soda pop. In my entire life, I have always hated the taste ofdiet pop, and I knew that no one else had been inside the house for at leastfive years. So I was sure that whoever had done the vandalism had alsobrought and drunk the diet pop. I am also fairly smart and I know that robotsmake all cans of soda pop and package it, so I knew that NO human fingerprintscould possibly have gotten on that can except for whoever had 'broken'into my house. So I carefully put the can in a plastic bag and I bought afingerprint kit. The next time to Thornton then resulted in several perfectfingerprints, although I could not figure out how to identify them.About a month later when I came to mow the lawn, the interior of the house was again vandalized and another can of the same brand of diet pop was againon the kitchen counter. I had also intentionally left my vacuum cleanerin the middle of the kitchen floor and I had very carefully CLEANED the metalattachments of it. This resulted in another set of excellent fingerprintsfrom the diet pop can and more perfect fingerprints from where the person hadtouched the vacuum cleaner hose.In both of those times, I had VERY carefully checked each of the 48 glasswindows of the house but none were broken. I checked each of the doors tosee if anyone had damaged anything in breaking into the house, but Ifound no damage. I also checked the entire exteriorof the house for even some small hole where any animal might have gotteninside, but there were none. Really a puzzle. IF it were a human, andthe diet pop cans and fingerprints seemed to prove that, it was NOT clearhow they had gotten inside my very securely locked house.In the Autumn of 2002, a friend of mine from South Holland had gottenthrown out of his parents' house, and he began living in his Chevy Camaro.So I walked down the two blocks to the Thornton Village Hall to ask what Ithought was a reasonable question. I had NOT talked to ANYONE in Thorntonin the previous ten years. But I barely got my question about temporarilyallowing my very good friend to live in my house for a few weeks until he couldfind an apartment, and a fat red-haired matron came up and started SCREAMINGat me. It was hard to believe that she was even breathing, she wasscreaming so intensely and viciously at me. She ended by announcing thatshe would alert the Thornton Police to watch for any car other than mineparked in the dead end street, where she would then Condemn my house andhave it Demolished. I didn't even have any idea who the matron was, andI certainly had no idea why she was screaming at me in the middle of theThornton Village Hall like that. But I did NOT let my friend stay inmy house so he remained living in his car. My understanding of Americawas that I actually COULD help a person in stress, especially in a totallyempty home. Apparently, that is not allowed in Thornton or it is not allowedby me. I began to wonder if I had to get that fat woman's permission beforeI could ever have a girl friend share the house! I have never had the slightest idea WHY she vented on me so viciously.I later learned that she was about seven years older than me, and I wonderedif my half-brother (also seven years older than me) had offended her backwhen they went to Elementary and High School together. I still do notknow WHY she developed such an amazing hatred of me.I DID later learn that she was the Mayor's (part time) Secretary and shewas also the Police Department's (part time) Secretary, a woman namedKaren Leoni.The next Spring, three male neighbors and I were pitching horseshoeson my front lawn one afternoon, and some guy drove up in an unmarkedwhite pickup truck. He turned around in the short dead end street and cameup near me. He waited until I came up to his truck. He never said a word atall. He just HANDED me a red piece of paper and drove off. The red paperwas a Cease and Desist Order although NOTHING on the entire Form hadbeen filled in, except for the date of April 1. The horseshoe guys wonderedif we were not allowed to play horseshoes. They also wondered if somebodywas doing an April Fool's Joke on me.Note that, other than the three men who regularly played horseshoeswith me, I have never even TALKED with anyone else in Thornton. Andabsolutely no one in Thornton had any idea that I was a highly respectedChristian Minister in Indiana.Soon after, I walked the two blocks down to the Village Hall to find outwhat the 'blank red Form' meant. I was still uneasy since the ONLYprevious time I had been in their building was when the fat red-hairedwoman spent the time screaming at me. Apparently, it was a Village-wideview of me! This time I was told to WAIT for some guy who was even more obese,probably around 400 pounds. He IMMEDIATELY announced to me, with a bigsmile, that he was going to Condemn and then Demolish my house. (This wasthe ONLY conversation I was ever to have with Harry Nolan, the part-time,$18/hour, Building Commissioner). He never actually told me WHY he was goingto Condemn and Demolish my house, but I got the hint that a few weeksearlier, I had tacked a few roofing shingles onto an area of my garage,about the size of a bathtub, maybe a dozen shingles, that had been leaking.He had apparently decided that I HAD TO apply for a 'Building Permit' to dothat, and I had certainly not realized that such a small repair projectactually required a Building Permit. Mr. Nolan DEMANDED that I apply fora Building Permit from him on that day, but he added "It really won'tmatter, because in exactly 90 days, he WAS going to Condemn and thenDemolish my house" (always with that big smile). He added that (stillwith that big smile), he had ALREADY Condemned and Demolished more thana dozen other buildings in Thornton.I was certainly puzzled, partly due to yet another person in the Thorntongovernment who seemed to have an amazing hatred of me, but also partlybecause I had previously thought that the main point of a 'BuildingCommissioner' was to INCREASE the tax rolls of a community and NOT tothrive on demolishing buildings. (I later found that in the entiredecade of 2000-2009, Harry Nolan ONLY issued Permits for a total of TWOBUILDINGS to Thornton, and one of those was a garage!)I did all the work that Harry Nolan demanded of me, which includedentirely re-roofing both my large house and the garage, of repairing andre-painting all of the 48 glass windows of my fairly large house, butI never could find anyone who would enable my refurbished house toexist beyond Harry Nolan's 90 days. People said that ONLY THE MAYORcould possibly overrule Harry Nolan, but most of them pointed out thatthe Mayor Jack Swann and Harry Nolan were very good friends.A partial explanation arrived on May 7, 2003, when in a casual phoneto Mayor Swann on May 7,2003, in the hopes of persuading himto keep my house from being demolished. The Mayor was pleasant (ashe apparently had not yet known of whatever 'universal attitude' that theVillage of Thornton seemed to have against me.) But the Mayor explainedthat 'whatever Harry Nolan decided, that was fine with him'. So allhope regarding my house were totally extinguished. I even asked the Mayor ifI would be allowed to tent-camp on my property, once the house and garagehad been demolished. The Mayor did not see anything wrong with that. And, inprinciple, that would have been the end of the phone conversation. However,the Mayor apparently was in a mood to vent. Three houses away from hishouse, a Black family had moved in as renters, at 201 North Hunter Street.Otherwise, Thornton had always been 100% White. I later learned ofdozens of other 'prominent citizens' of Thornton who were (and are)ferociously racist. I do not know if that Black renting family haddone anything wrong or not, but the Mayor made a comment that terrifiedme. He rather casually mentioned that 'he had sent people from theThornton government to look through their house' but had not found anythingyet. I asked if he did that when the family was there and the Mayorclarified with "No". Then, I THOUGHT I was clarifying the Mayor's commentsby me saying that he meant that "a Court Order from a Judge for a SearchWarrant was obviously necessary" and "only Police Officers could entersuch a building".The Mayor IMMEDIATELY corrected me, telling me that NO SEARCH WARRANT WASEVER NECESSARY, and that ANY EMPLOYEE OF THE THORNTON GOVERNMENT OR ANYEMPLOYEE OF THE THORNTON POLICE ALWAYS HAVE THE RIGHT TO ENTER ANY BUILDINGIN THE VILLAGE, as long as no window or door was damaged in the process.I am aware that all Police have all kinds of toys to get into any car orbuilding as they wish. So even though the Mayor was talking about a Blackfamily on his own block, I suddenly got VERY NERVOUS in realizing thathe could easily have been talking about MY house as well!Neither the Mayor nor I realized during thatconversation that I might have been a target of such bizarreentry, as he was actually referring to a family in the Village thatwere considered troublesome (and Black) in his comments.A year earlier, on two different mowing visits, Ihad found the interior of my LOCKED house to be severely disrupted,even though no door or window had beenbroken, and nothing seemed to be stolen. As a good scientist, Irealized that a nearly brand new vacuum cleaner which had beensitting in the kitchen both times, LIKELY had NO fingerprintson the long pipes of the vacuum, and when I checked them forfingerprints, I found several fingerprints which were clearlynot mine. There was also an empty diet soda can sitting on mykitchen counter (I have NEVER drunk any diet sodas in my life)and I knew that pop cans are manufactured, boxed and shippedby machines, with absolutely no fingerprints on them, so the factthat I found very clear fingerprints on that can, I hadabsolute evidence of who had gotten into my (locked) house.It was about two years later that I finally got samplesof the Mayor's Secretary's fingerprints, which exactly matchedthe ones found inside my (locked) house. But at the time, I did NOTknow WHO the fingerprints belonged to, only that they clearlyidentified whoever had gotten into my house. The Mayor's casual commentsin that phone conversation some months later caused me to suddenlyrealize that it had been employees of the Village who had gotteninto my house (both times). So I began to always bring a drinking glassor something else with me every time I walked down to the Village Hall,to get someone to MOVE MY GLASS which I always put right in the way. So,gradually, I accumulated a collection of fingerprints from various employeesof the Thornton Village government. In fact, about a year after that (in 2004),I was finally able to confirm that it had been the Mayor's own part-timeSecretary (Karen Leoni) who had entered my house and clearly spent severalhours in it, both of those two times. IF she also entered it at othertimes, she did not commit the extensive disruption of the contentsof the house. Regarding HOW she got into my locked house, I amfully aware that the Police have many methods of getting insidelocked cars and houses.This is mostly ancient history from about 2002, but I feelthe need to add an extra paragraph here in December 2014. I amnot a Black, but I can relate to recent stories in the newsabout incredibly bad behavior of Police to Blacks. I feel likeI am a Retired White man in their situation! Once I learned of thisincredible Police Misconduct, beginning in May 2005, I repeatedlycontacted EVERY Cook County, Illinois State and Federal Agencyabout this. Every Agent I contacted ALL instructed me to go to theThornton Police Department to File a Report! (ON the Thornton PoliceDepartment members. I saw that as absoluteinsanity! In a very small Department, what would happen to anyReport I might try to File which might cause their own brothers to be sent to prison? Yeah, right. I had also tried to contact atleast 45 different County, State and Federal Agencies, even includingPolice Internal Affairs (regarding Police Misconduct) of bothCook County and Chicago. There were two incredibly importantdetails which I then did not know! The Federal Government passedsome Laws where NO ONE is allowed to ever file any Lawsuit againstany Municipal government or against any local Police Department.(the Municipal Government and Municipal Police Department clearlymust feel quite comfortable in having behaved in such offensive andillegal ways for these past ten years or more). On July 30, 2007, Icalled a Diane Gaster of the Public Integrity Division of theIllinois State's Attorney's Office, as I was informed that her Officehandled Police Misconduct regarding Officers in the Towns and Villagesof Cook County, Illinois. She told me that she saw absolutely nothingwrong in anything the Thornton Police had done! She then told methat if I did not like how the Thornton Government and Police enforcethe community, I should just sell my house and move to some otherarea! And then she HUNG UP ON ME! The other detail I did notthen know about was that the Village is apparently functionally aMonarchy where the government and Police are absolutely free to doanything they wish), The Form of government of Thornton, Illinoisis a version of Home Rule, which pretty much gives themamazing freedom to do anything they wish. No higher authority ofgovernment has ANY authority over anything Thornton decides to do.Getting back to the events of September 2002,and the outright LYINGof at least three different Officers in their 'interrogation of thosechildren'.I am not a Lawyer, but it sure seems to me that since there wereTHREE different Officers involved, each fabricating slightly DIFFERENTlies about me on the same day, that seems to me to be absoluteproof that they had Pre-meditated those actions and they could nothave been accidental mis-statements or the actions of a singlerogue cop. In other words, isn't that absolute proof that theThornton Police Department CHOSE to destroy my career as a Minister,my reputation as an admired person, and my life? And doesn't thatseem to suggest the word Felony, regarding their behavior? And itseems to explain why the highly admired, long-term Chief of Police(Arnold) very suddenly resigned in 2006, without even giving any twoweek notice and he listed and sold his house andmoved to an unknown destination, a few days after an FBI Agentfriend of mine (T.S.) had called him about my situation. Everyone wasshocked when he left so suddenly, leaving Thornton in a difficultspot of unexpectedly having to find a new Chief of Police, andwhere he left a probable lifetime job of high pay to becomeunemployed? But a Chief of Police is responsible for his Officers,and when SEVERAL OFFICERS were involved, AND an FBI Agent calledhim about my situation, I could see how he might have realized hecould be in very deep trouble!Employees of the Police Department and the Village of Thornton have thenspent the following EIGHT YEARS (and counting) in repeating those lies overand over to each and all of the 2,000-plus residents of Thornton. As aresult, not one resident of Thornton has ever said a word to me in the pastseven years, which was also nearly true of the whole ten years. (ThePolice had never bothered to EVER even TALK to me about ANY subject, partlybecause I initially lived 60 miles away in Indiana (in our Church's building) and originally only would be briefly in Thornton every few weeksto mow the lawn.)Those Police were obviously unaware that as a Christian Minister,or that I had given a number ofSermons about the Sins of many aberrant sexual behaviors, includingthose involving children and homosexuals and cheating. I have neverunderstood how some Churches seem to overlook a Commandment of Godin deciding to permit and even encourage some behaviors!In a bizarre way, the people who run Thornton, Illinois enabledme to better understand the story of Jesus and His Crucifixion.Even though I have long been a Christian Minister, I had neverreally grasped how Jesus could have been so Perfect and yet theCommunity misunderstood Him so badly that they chose to have Himexecuted by Crucifixion. Thornton, Illinois has aggressively treatedme, a Christian Minister, amazingly badly, by having even made up horrificlies about me and then repeated those lies so often that every singleresident of Thornton really came to believe that I am evil incarnate .I certainly have heard stories about communities treating outsiders andpeople who they believed were different than themselves, badly, butI really never imagined that a community could treat a law-abidingChristian Minister in such a disappointing way. And for twelve anda half years, and running!There seem to be some examples which might show that I am actuallya nice and even potential admirable person! Since November 2000. I haveGIVEN AWAY the plans and information for a system that nearly anyonecould use to fully air condition their homes FOR FREE. At least 21,000 peoplehave installed it so far. But I have made available a Technical Packet for anyone who feels they have an unique application. In order for meto send out the TP, I require that the recipient GIVE $250 as cash,to any credible Charity (and not a dime to me!) At least 9,400 people haverequested the TP so far. Trusting that they have each honored their wordabout the Good Deed I have nudged them to make, that indicates that THEYhave collectively GIVEN over $2,300,000 to wonderful activities! (so far!)Cooling System - Technical Info Fee ArrangementDuring 2014, I have tried to save the lives of potentially 45 millionpeople in Ukraine, after Russia shut off all their sources of naturalgas to heat their homes Alternative GREEN Furnace - Non-Fossil-Fueled. I spent many years manufacturing andselling world-class wood-burning stoves for about half the cost ofcompeting products Woodburning Furnace - JUCA.I have tried to provide economical waysfor Third World people to obtain extremely pure water (from the humidityin the air) Pure Water Supply from Atmospheric Humidity - for Third World Villages.Since 1997, I have provided thousands of world-class scholarly texts onevery imaginable religious subject, always absolutely for FREE and withouteven any nudging to give any donations, where tens of millions of Internethits occur every year. BELIEVE Religious Information Source - by Alphabet web-site. A variety of uniqueapproaches to capturing solar energy or energy from the rotation ofthe Earth or energy from Precession due to the Moon's gravity and manyother energy-related subjects have also long been given to the world.I even provide a scientific page for kids on why the sky is blue!Blue Sky Physics Explanation. Why is the sky blue?.And this attitude toward me has never wavered in the following thirteenyears. Thornton has made me pay around $3000 every year for Property Taxesfrom 2002 through 2014, around $40,000 total I paid to the Village. Shouldn'tI have gotten some Civil Rights for that? But all I seem to havegotten from Thornton during those 13 years has been harassment.For example, on March 24, 2014, as I was walking the two blocksback home from the Public Library, a local dog ran out into the streetto attack me and bite the back of my left leg. I had to hobble theremaining half block to my house to be able to call 911. SeveralPolice cars and an Ambulance showed up. They all looked at the bitemarks on my leg, but no one wrote anything down except for my name andaddress. One of the Ambulance men tried to get me to ride to a Hospitalabout the leg injury, but when I asked, he said that I probably wouldbe billed around $600 for that. I felt that I should be able to driveto a Hospital if I felt it necessary. One of the older Police Officersabsolutely assured me that that dog would NEVER endanger me again.NONE of the Police Officers identified themselves to me.Less than TWO DAYS LATER, March 26, 2014, the SAME dog attacked me again, onmy way to the Library! When Thornton Police answered my 911 call, (less thana block away) the Officer took 25 minutes to respond, and it was verycold that morning (24 F) and I got VERY cold standing along thestreet waiting for the Police Car. When he finally arrived, I politelyasked to sit in the warm Police Car and the Cop IMMEDIATELY and GRUFFLYdenied that request. He made clear that he did not have any questionsand had no intention to File any Report. (The Thornton Village OrdinancesREQUIRE that he Filed such a Report, and also that he Issued two Citationsfor the dog running at large and for the dog attacking a person ).From inside his warm Police Car, that Officer made totally clear thathe was NOT about to File any Citation on the dog owner or to restrictthe dog's movements in any way!The behavior of the SECOND Police Officer was so offensive that Icontacted the Thornton Police Department to learn his identity. Theywould NOT even tell me the name of the Officer who had answered my 911 call!They also would not tell me the identities of any of the severalOfficers who had arrived at my house two days earlier! They wereclearly INTENTIONALLY keeping all their identities secret! Strange!I had not realized that Police were free to keep their identities secret!I had only heard of the Nazi Staatsi Police doing that!I am a pretty persistent person. I initiated a FOIA (Freedom of InformationAct) request for both of those times when I had been attacked by thatdog. Apparently, the Thornton Police Department handles all FOIA Requests.And they processed mine in the way I might have expected.A few days later, I got mail responses. I was informed that Thornton haddecided NOT to respond to my FOIA Requests regarding the first and thirddog attack on me. Regarding the SECOND dog attack,I learned that NO Police Report was ever Filed, and that no recordwhatever of that event was ever created. Not even any record of (any of)my 911 calls! Or that Officer's identity. The FOIA Response explained thatthe Officer always has the discretionregarding whether ANY Police Report ever gets created. (I don't think thatwas true or legal), and the (unidentified) Officer had decided thathe did not need or want to file any Report. The FOIA Response also informedme that the Officer never even bothered to talk to the dog owner, nor Filedthe MANDATORY Citation for the $500 Fine for the dog not being on a leashor the other MANDATORY Citation for at least $500 for the dog havingattacked a person. How did the Officer get away with ignoring so manyThornton Ordinances? After all, I have paid $40,000 in Property Taxes in recent years which has partly gone toward paying Thornton Police Officers,including him (whoever he is). Is the dog owner a more important citizen thanme where he got to slide on two significant MANDATORY Citations and Fines?I learned that no Officer had ever Issued the similar MANDATORY Citations andFines from two days earlier and that dog bite on my leg that they all saw.I also learned that Thornton Dog Ordinances have MANDATORY Impoundmentof ANY dog which has bitten, attacked or threatened any person, butnone of that happened regarding that dog. NO Fine, NO Citation andNO Impoundment, either time! IF I have any Civil Rights in the Villageof Thornton, Illinois, they are hard to see. In contrast, the dog whichhad (by then) attacked me twice in two days, seems to have unlimitedrights, even regarding several very specific Thornton VillageOrdinances. The Thornton Village dog Ordinances even include one regardinga dog which had previously bitten anyone, where such a dog was to beImpounded and Destroyed if it should ever attack any other person.Here, there was a dog which clearly merited that Ordinance of immediateDestruction, within less than a two day interval!The dog owner never had the slightest incentive to control his dog,having never received any of the MANDATORY four Citations nor theMANDATORY four $500 Fines nor the two MANDATORY Impoundments northe MANDATORY Destruction of that dog. As a result, that dog continued tofreely roam Thornton. Two months later, on June 7, 2014, when I stepped outof my kitchen door to get something from my vehicle in front of my garage,the SAME dog attacked me a third time, this time on MY property!I was only three steps from my kitchen door!When an Officer arrived after (this third) 911 dog attack call, the Officermade clear that NO Citation would be given the dog owner and NO Fine. TheOfficer explainedto me that since I did not have any eyewitness , he had no reason tobelieve MY word over the behavior of that dog! I pointed out that THISdog attack had occurred on MY PROPERTY, just three steps from my kitchendoor! I pointed out that I am a Christian Minister, but my word clearly isnot to be believed over a repeatedly dangerous dog!I asked THIS Officer about the certainty that I, a Thornton Taxpayer,clearly could not safely ever walk down the very street I live on, asthe Village seemed to have given unlimited rights to the offending dogand its owner. The Officer had no answer to that. In the yearsince the three dog attacks in 2014 (so far) I have NEVER walked downANY street or sidewalk in Thornton or even in my own yard, as the ThorntonPolice have made clear that they have no intention of protecting my safetyfrom dog attacks! I had spent my 68 years in enjoying walking, which I consideredgood exercise and healthy sunshine. I commonly would walk the half-mileto the Post Office to mail a single letter, mostly for the exercise,but I also walked the quarter-mile to the Public Library for thesame reason. I am now denied these behaviors that I thought allAmericans freely had, even just walking down the wonderful street Ilive on. Due to the third attack which occurred five feet frommy house back door, I have been rather terrified when I need to try tomake it the twenty feet to my pickup truck! Maybe Thornton finds itentertaining that I no longer can walk to the Library, but this is supposedto be America, and I am supposed to have some rights! Just what haveI paid that $40,000 in Property Taxes for?It has seemed to me that OTHERS in Thornton are in danger of beingattacked by that dog, possibly children. Had any of those ThorntonPolice Officers Enforced the many Thornton dog Ordinances regardingthe three attacks on me, maybe children and others might now be safer.I notice that there have been repeated screams from a Postal Carrieras he passed the dog owner's house. I wonder if Thornton Police giveany credibility to his being attacked by that same dog?The Village of Thornton also decided that they had the authorityto do Warrantless Wiretaps on my house, beginning at least by mid-2002.This was within months of when President Bush had passed thePatriot Act which gave the Federal government such authority regardingpossible terrorists. The Village of Thornton apparently decided that theyhad that authority to use against a Christian Minister! But Thorntonactually went far further than the Federal government ever does,in not only READING my e-mails and listening to my phone calls butalso INSERTING hundreds of thousands of image files into myshut-off computer inside my securely locked house!I never understood how or why that when I would arrive to mow the lawn, andUNLOCKED the securely locked house and TURNED ON the computer, it oftenhad thousands of new files in it! They were IMAGES of very disgustingthings that I guess a Police Department has access to, andwhich they somehow were inserting into my TURNED OFF computer insidea LOCKED HOUSE during those periods of weeks when I was not evenin the State of Illinois! On ONE such trip, I had to delete over7,000 image files from my computer!It seemed to me that a small percentage of the files they put into mycomputer really seemed to qualify as illegal. Most of the imagesthat showed up in my computer seemed to be nudist photos, which Iunderstand are actually legal. Many of the others seemed to be ofolder women, which I understand are also legal. I wonder wherethe Thornton Police obtained such photos, and I can only guessthat it was by (Fourth Amendment illegal) monitoring other people'scomputers, but that is only a guess as to where they got such ahuge number of such photos. I even found it necessaryto continue to use an obsolete computer Windows95 system, in order tobe able to FIND all the files they were regularly inserting intomy computer, as newer computers make it very difficult to find andreally delete files. (even when you THINK you deleted a file, moderncomputers still keep hidden copies of absolutely everything!) The behaviorsof Thornton Police and Thornton Village employees caused some changes inmy personal existence such as this. Ditto regarding vetoing theidea of using Cable or Wi-Fi or any other fast system, which would havemade it far easier for the Village to have been inserting filesin my computer, so I was forced to always continue to usean antique Dial-Up Modem for all e-mail and internet contacts.My friends always made fun of me for using such slow connections,but I could never explain to them WHY I was doing that!A new thought has occurred to me in 2015! Since I had never reallycarefully looked at all the images that Thornton had inserted intomy computer, until recently, I had not realized that many thousands of theimage files that Thornton inserted into my old computer were pictures whichI COULD NOT have obtained! They were photos of often hundreds of OLDER women, matrons,attending male stripper nights, where many of the women were havingvarious forms of sex with the male strippers. As I understand it, no menare ever allowed to attend such Male Stripper nights. The new thought was thatthousands of those women who had apparently PAID to attend the Male Strippernight were elderly, or obese, or ugly, which seemed to confirm that theywere local residents who had PAID to get their jollies, and probably did NOTwant their husbands and relatives to ever see photos of them having sex withmale strippers! So the new thought is whether Thornton or whateverother town Police had installed HIDDEN CAMERAS, so they could collectpossible morals evidence for future arrests. I thought that it wascalled Prostitution for people to pay money and then have sex??? Ordoes that only apply regarding MALE patrons??? In any case, such Policecertainly would NOT have wanted Thornton to be distributing such evidence photos, of some RESPECTED LOCAL ELDERLY WOMEN having sex with MaleStrippers, as such respected elderly women might sue the PoliceDepartments for collecting such photos of them! Additionally, aren'tpeople who have such photos taken of them REQUIRED to SIGN A RELEASEregarding THEIR IMAGE??? In other words, the fact that Thornton choseto try to USE around 40,000 such photos against ME (or more technically, mycomputer), didn't they realize the trouble I might have caused them(and apparently other Police Departments) if I had disclosed those40,000 photos to newspapers or other news media? Thornton hadinserted virtually all of those images between 2002 and mid-2008 (when thephone company had found their electronic transmitter / receiver inside thephone company equipment box outside my house in mid-2008) Since I activelydeleted as many thousands of such image files as Thornton was insertinginto my computer, I imagine that by 2015, I probably no longer haveaccess to most of those Male Stripper image files.So, I suppose those elderly women are probably safe from being put outof their closet, at least by me! I wonder how many other millions oftheir images of such paying-women-customers having sex with MaleStrippers are now sitting in Police Department computers!A partial explanation arrived on May 7, 2003, when in a casual phoneconversation (about other matters, regarding matters of a familyliving near the Mayor that the Mayor felt were undesirables ),the Mayor of Thornton happenedto mention that ANY employee of either the Thornton Police DepartmentOR the Thornton Village governmentalways had the freedom to ENTER ANY HOUSE OR BUILDING IN THORNTON.I thought I was correcting the Mayor in mentioning that hemeant only the Police and only with a Search Warrant from aJudge, but Mayor Swan immediately corrected me. He explained thatNO Search Warrant was EVER necessary, and that ANY employee ofEITHER the Police Department or the Village government could dosuch entries, as they wished! Neither the Mayor nor I realized during thatconversation that I might have been a target of such bizarreentry, as he was actually referring to a family in the Village thatwere considered troublesome (and Black) in his comments.A year earlier, on two different mowing visits, Ihad found the interior of my LOCKED house to be severely disrupted,even though no door or window had beenbroken, and nothing seemed to be stolen. As a good scientist, Irealized that a nearly brand new vacuum cleaner which had beensitting in the kitchen both times, LIKELY had NO fingerprintson the long pipes of the vacuum, and when I checked them forfingerprints, I found several fingerprints which were clearlynot mine. There was also an empty diet soda can sitting on mykitchen counter (I have NEVER drunk any diet sodas in my life)and I knew that pop cans are manufactured, boxed and shippedby machines, with absolutely no fingerprints on them, so the factthat I found very clear fingerprints on that can, I hadabsolute evidence of who had gotten into my (locked) house.It was about two years later that I finally got samplesof the Mayor's Secretary's fingerprints, which exactly matchedthe ones found inside my (locked) house. But at the time, I did NOTknow WHO the fingerprints belonged to, only that they clearlyidentified whoever had gotten into my house. The Mayor's casual commentsin that phone conversation some months later caused me to suddenlyrealize that it had been employees of the Village who had gotteninto my house (both times). In fact, about a year after that, Iwas able to confirm that it had been the Mayor's own part-timeSecretary (Karen Leoni) who had entered my house and clearly spent severalhours in it, both of those two times. IF she also entered it at othertimes, she did not commit the extensive disruption of the contentsof the house. Regarding HOW she got into my locked house, I amfully aware that the Police have many methods of getting insidelocked cars and houses.Another part-time employee, a Harry Nolan, officially began the paperworkto have my house first Condemned and then Demolished, THREE DIFFERENTTIMES (June, August and September), all during 2003. Mr. Nolan evenadmitted that he had never even seen my house (which was less thantwo blocks away from his office)! One of thosetimes came within one day of having a Judge authorize my housebeing Condemned, still without it ever having even been seen!You can probably guess at how hard it would be to be a Christian Pastorin a community where every resident was regularly re-told the horrificlies that the Thornton Police had made up to destroy my career and my life.During the year 2006, the Village seemed to get especially aggressivein their efforts at harassing me. A Teller at my Bank joked withme one day regarding my checking my bank balance every singleday in their web-site and I responded by saying that I hadno clue as to how to even do that. Upon my request, the Tellerdiscovered that it was the Village of Thornton checking my bankbalances. Rather odd! But they were also monitoring and readingmy incoming and outgoing e-mails, and they even decided to send theirown out-going e-mails to anyone who indicated that they were about tosend me a check in the mail! My previously thriving businessof providing excellent fireplace doors at nice discounts verysuddenly dropped to having no customers during January 2006.On August 29, 2006, the cousin of President Clinton's PressSecretary informed me that John Stossel of ABC's popular 20/20program was extremely impressed with my energy-related web-pagesand Stossel had even already created a tentative name for a major segment on me for 20/20, ONE MANS EFFORTS TO SAVE ON AMERICASPOWER USAGE! . Amazingly quickly after receiving thate-mail, ABC News suddenly stopped all communication with me(which continues to this day six years later!) I can't actuallyconnect that incident with anyone in the Village of Thornton,but it was mighty peculiar that Stossel and 20/20 were incrediblyenthusiastic about me one day, and from the next day on,it was as though I had leprosy or the Plague! Dozens ofrequests from me to people in ABC News, and also to Mr. McCurry,NEVER even received any responses after that, where we had beenhaving daily communications prior to that. WHATEVER the reasonthat ABC News and (both) Mr. McCurrys instantly lost interestin me and my energy projects, I just wish I could know, and theONLY possibility that seems credible is that someone in Thorntonspread their vicious lies about me to those fine people. Itcertainly was completely in line with seeing hundreds of peopleenjoying saving $200 each on sets of fireplace doors droppingsuddenly down to ONE customer over eight months! So the ABC-Stossel-20/20-McCurry incident is technically not in my listof confirmed actions by Thornton, like all the hundreds ofother harassing behaviors which I have been able to confirm.I certainly wonder WHAT sort of comments by any minor bureaucrat in atiny Village could have said which might have caused Nationalorganizations and celebrities to change their attitudes toward me soseverely. For the eight years before that (1998 to his death in 2006),my dear friend Peter Jennings (Anchor of the Nightly News onABC News) certainly knew the quality of my existence, and itwas unfortunate that Peter died just a few months before hemight have defended me to whatever Stossel and the others wereapparently told about me! But the way history happened, I woundup never knowing WHY I was suddenly eliminated from all contactwith ABC News ever again since September 2006.An AT T phone technician discovered an electronic device insidetheir gray box on the outside of my home (in 2008) which finallyexplained why some neighbors had seen the Mayor's Secretarystand on the (public) sidewalk nearest that box, about everyother day, over 700 differenttimes (by the neighbor's estimate) over at least a period of fouryears. (possibly longer, as there is no way to know how many yearsthat device had been in there, but the AT T Technician who foundit was VERY angry as he thought that I had put it inside theirequipment!) The Mayor's Secretary would stand motionless on thepublic sidewalk nearest that device, for about ten to fifteenminutes during the evening, about every other day for more than fouryears, where she could download my phone calls and e-mail and internet,and also upload many thousands of incredibly nasty images into mycomputer. I am still fuzzy at how anyone could do such things toa TURNED OFF COMPUTER (while I was living in a different State fortwo or three weeks at a time!), but I guess Police have all sortsof toys. The neighbor seemed bemused that the Mayor's Secretarywould stand there, motionless for ten or fifteen minutes, even inrainstorms, snowstorms and when the temperature was below zero! Sincethe neighbor's information told me that she always stood in theexact same location, in 2006, I installed a motion sensor and video cameraand VCR aimed at that spot. In a different situation, it would be adarkly humorous scene to see the Date Stamps show the Mayor's Secretaryarrive about every second evening, and turn to face my house and standrelatively motionless for around 10 or 12 minutes and then leave, onlyto see the video of the same behavior occur again over and over, eithertwo or three days apart. During the Summer of 2006, I recorded anentire six-hour VCR tape of repetitions of that behavior of hers. Butshe stayed on the public sidewalk, and at that time, I was notaware of the electronic device she had installed in the phone equipment.Still, to see a video of any Mayor's Secretary spending six hours,in ten minute segments, for around the 32 times that I recordedher, is very bizarre. When one considers that she repeated thatover 700 times over more than four years, wow! (I probably shouldhave uploaded that six hours of videotapes of her into my InternetDomain, or recorded her standing there during winter blizzards!)I wonder if that would have discouraged her from doing it orwhether she would have decided to use the assets of the Police Departmentto harass me even more. (I did NOT ever record her dumpster-diving, goingthrough my garbage container early on garbage mornings, which also mighthave made interesting viewing regarding a Mayor's Secretary!)Of course, at that time, during 2006, I was not yet aware of theelectronic device she had placed inside the telephone company'sequipment on the side of my home, so I still just thought she wassimply harassing me along lines that she and a dozen other ThorntonVillage employees and Thornton Police Officers often did.During all of 2006, all of 2007 and the early part of 2008, I hadnoticed that virtually every piece of postal mail I received,with the exception of utility bills, had the envelope flap distinctlyrippled. I knew that when someone steamed open a letter to examineits contents, the water and heat causes the paper to expand, sothat when the letter was later re-glued, the flap showed such ripples.NO utility bill envelope ever had such ripples but virtually everyother piece of mail I received did. Actually, a skilled person CANopen a letter without causing such ripples, but the employees of theThornton Village government apparently did not have that skill.When it had become so clear that my mail was being monitored andread (which I had understood to be a Federal Felony, interferingwith the mails), I even did three different experiments to verifythis. Any Secretary knows that once a letter is folded, it issupposed to be inserted into the envelope such that the letter fallsopen by the reader. But I intentionally inserted a typed letterUPSIDE DOWN in the envelope. Not only that, but I bought a pairof surgical gloves to get the brand new sheet of blank paper and put itin the typewriter, and then to fold it and insert it into theenvelope. In other words, I ensured that there were NO POSSIBLEFINGERPRINTS on the letter inside the envelope. I made up a messageregarding a possible interest in buying some product from me,as I had already learned that Thornton had a clear fascinationwith anyone who might consider sending me any money. And, on threedifferent dates, several weeks apart, early in 2006, I took such aletter to a nearby town and mailed it to my own address.In each case, it took either eight or nine days before the letterwas delivered (for a three mile trip in the mails!) In each of thethree cases, the envelope flaps showed the usual ripples in thepaper, which indicated that someone had steamed the letter open.When I opened the envelope, the letter was RIGHT SIDE UP, whichconfirmed that someone had opened the envelope and removed theletter but they re-inserted it in the envelope in the NORMALway and not upside-down as I had mailed it. And finally, I useda simple fingerprint kit and found around 15 fingerprints on eachof the three letters, which each SHOULD HAVE BEEN pristinelyfingerprint-free! I actually now had ABSOLUTE PROOF that SOMEONEhad been violating Federal Law regarding opening private mail,AND I EVEN HAD FINGERPRINTS TO PROVE WHO IT WAS (the Mayor'sSecretary, in all three cases). Those fingerprints on those threeletters exactly matched the fingerprints I had found on the sodapop can and the vacuum cleaner inside my locked house four yearsearlier.However, I realized that since I had NOT had any witnesses seeme assemble any of the three letters, and no witnesses had seenthe ripples in the envelopes, and no witnesses had seen meopen any of those letters or seen me use the fingerprint kit,I knew that no Judge would consider any of that as actualevidence. So even though I now had ABSOLUTE PROOF and eventhe exact identity being the Mayor's Secretary, I knew thatI did not have sufficient proof for a Court. However, it DID seema moral victory to have gotten such impressive evidence from mythree experiments, and I finally eliminated any doubt regardingWHO was at the center of the harassment of me.As to HOW Village employees could get access to MY mail, itseems clear that someone in the local Post Office must havebeen involved. The then Postmaster seemed regularly very nastyto me, and I have always assumed it was her, but with no proof.Several years later (in 2009) a very nice Postal Carrier rememberedthat any mail to or from me was to be set aside butshe did not know why, or what happened to it. But at least Istarted to understand why mail NEVER got to me in anytimely fashion, as it had up to the beginning of 2006, but thatANY mail always then took at least eight days in transit.By the way, as a very thorough scientist, I also kept track ofmail that I SENT to one specific friend. To go from Illinoisto Indiana, it always took around ten days (but that dropped tothe standard two days early in 2008, which I took as a confirmationthat Thornton might have finally decided to stop reading my mail!).My friend knew that I would intentionally insert the lettersupside-down, but he always confirmed that they arrived right-side-up.I was never able to get him to buy a fingerprint kit, so he neverchecked whether there were any fingerprints on letters where therecould not have been any. After mid-2008, my mail, both inbound andoutbound, seemed to no longer have ripples in the envelopes andit arrived in the correct timely intervals. One more bizarre incident apparently regarding their aggressive intention of having my house Condemned and Demolished during 2003. It seems clear that the Village employees must have felt that they saw some reason INSIDE my house which they wanted to add to their claims of having it destroyed, but they could not easily admit to knowing such things without also admitting that they had broken into my locked house! So one day when I was hosting three men neighbors in our daily horseshoe games, a white pickup truck showed up and stopped near one of the other players, to offer him a job as a laborer. We all thought it was peculiar that anyone would drive up to a total stranger and offer a job, but he went to work the next morning. He later was laughing when he mentioned to the others of us that the guy who had hired him (the husband of Karen Leoni, the part-time Secretary who seems to be involved in many of these things) spent the ENTIRE 20 minutes of the morning break time in asking him dozens of questions ABOUT THE INTERIOR OF MY HOUSE! It turned out that Louie had never been inside my house and had no way of knowing what it was like. At noon, he was either fired or laid off, so his new job as laborer only lasted half of one day! And central in that half-day were all the questions about the interior of my house! There may not actually have been anything illegal there, but it sure seems peculiar! At a time when they were going through my house whenever I was not around, and while they had already tried four times in six months to Condemn and Demolish my house, it just seems VERY strange that Louie was hired by a total stranger, only to be interrogated regarding my house, and then dumped without even getting a full day's pay!The Village of Thornton, Illinois spent all those years andseveral thousands of hours of effort to try todestroy a Christian Minister! The anecdotes mentioned here areonly a tiny part of their entire set of behaviors toward me(which is even still continuing into 2014 as I am updating this text).Even I find that amazing and unbelievable,except since they did it to ME, and my training as a Research Scientist,caused me to very carefully collect and document massive amounts of evidence.They actually did FAR more than these core activities, such as Stalkingme into other towns and then trying to get those towns to arrest me forcrazy crimes, and endless harassment. The linked web-pages present theevidence of many of those hundreds of different events. Not beinga Lawyer, I don't know for sure, but many of their behaviors,by at least a dozen different individuals, seem rather criminal.And it all continues! Even after nine years of this harassment,the Village Code Enforcement Officer, named Torres, overheard aconversation regarding why a neighbor who owns a riding mowersometimes mowed my grass in 2011. Torres approached the neighbor,and instead of expressing praise for a neighbor helping an elderlyand medically frail neighbor, Torres apparently went into arant severely criticizing my neighbor for helping, and also addingin some amazingly insulting comments regarding MY character!I had only ever first met Mr. Torres in June of 2009, when he andothers knocked on my door to inform me that they were about tohave ALL the trees on my property chopped down. As I opened thedoor, to meet for the first time someone I had never met or talkedto before, I thought it was appropriate to introduce myself!IMMEDIATELY after I mentioned that I am a Christian Pastor,Torres blurted out No you aren't which wasquite a shock to hear! A moment later he said You claimto be part of a Church? I will take care of THAT! inan incredibly threatening tone. This was the FIRST CONVERSATIONwe ever had! He also ANNOUNCED that I had NOT replaced the entire roofof the house in 2003 after I mentioned that I had (which he had to seewas a FINE job well done). And his attitude toward me hascertainly not improved, but gone seriously downhill since! One timewhen I had mowed 89% of my rather large lawn, when an unusual partinside my very old Toro lawnmower broke, and I had to wait for Toroto send me a replacement part, Torres found the 11% that had not yetbeen mowed. Did he knock on the door to ASK why I had mowed nearlyall of the lawn but not all? No! Did he issue any kind of Warningregarding tall grass? No! He issued a VIOLATION which instructedme to either mail in the fine or carry it in to their Village Office!(It turns out he was not allowed to do that without a prior Warning).And did he put that Violation in my mail or on my doorknob or anywherewhere I might find it? No. He decided to TAPE IT TO THE GLASS ofone of the 48 windows of the large house, where I did not even findit for several days!The Village of Thornton Municipal employees and their local PoliceOfficers have been told so often and for so long the lies theymade up about me in 2002, that it all never ends!Doesn't it seem more likely that they might have decided to go aftersomeone they KNEW about, that was actually even FROM their town?Maybe even someone they knew had some kind of criminal record?But they clearly wanted to find some target to try to distractthe trouble that their Fire Chief was in, and this all happenedonly shortly after George W. Bush passed his Patriot Act. There isevery indication that Thornton interpreted the Patriot Act asabsolute freedom to ignore all Laws and even the Constitution, asnothing they could ever do could ever be wrong! (That is my bestguess as to WHY they started this and doggedly pursue it all againstme. Since none of them have ever even talked to me, I do not seehow I could have ever offended anyone, but Ministers rarely offendpeople anyway!This is all rather amazing that they happened to pick a target wherethe entire rest of the world calls and e-mails me to ask for solutionsto serious problems (evidenced by the assorted web-pages in this Domainof mine). Thornton seemed to not like that either, as they were quiteactive in both monitoring my e-mail and even sending their own e-mailsout to people who had just been in contact with me. Such people nevercommunicated with me again! Since by monitoring my communication, theVillage already had the sending e-mail address or calling phone numberof such people, they were able to immediately contact those people (whohad respected me up to then!) to spread their old lies to people all overthe world. Quite an impressive effort!Interestingly, the actions of the Village of Thornton have enabled meto get a far better insight of what had been done to Jesus! Like everyoneelse, I had already read the words in the Bible where the Jews had lovedand admired Jesus just weeks earlier, but then they turned on Him andit was THEIR decision that Jesus be Crucified. Well, having livedthrough these past eight years of Thornton's behaviors, where EVERYneighbor has heard their lies (for the Police would NEVER lie, right?) sorepeatedly that they each and every one have deep and profound hatredof me now. A MINISTER who has never been in trouble beyond a fewParking Tickets and has been an admired Christian Minister since 1996!I often wonder how effective Thornton is when their target is actuallya bad person or who has actually been in trouble! Targets who would neverhave even the tiniest chance of trying to defend themselves (asmy evidence and web-pages try to do regarding me).I am not a Lawyer, but my understanding of our Constitution isthat we Citizens are supposed to have Civil Rights, and thatpeople like Police and government (which WE pay for) are supposedto be Civil Servants. How does Thornton, Illinois think that theirMonarchy behaviors are compatible with the Constitution?Specifically, as I read the Fourth Amendment, we Citizens are supposedto be safe from improper searches and seizures, but in Thornton,ANY employee of the government is free to ENTER any house orbuilding, as long as they do not have to break any doors orwindows to do that. Isn't there something wrong there?Are they really ALLOWED to pro-actively and preemptively destroythe career and life of ANYONE? In America? It seems they are!What would YOUR attitude be if whenever you were at work or otherwiseaway, Secretaries (and possibly even Janitors!) would feel free toenter your (LOCKED) house and wander around in it? I eventually hadto buy and install a Home Security System, NOT due to any criminalsbut due to trying to keep the VILLAGE and POLICE out of my house!This IS America, right?Once I started realizing in 2002 and 2003, that Thornton felt free toenter my locked house whenever they wished, and all the phoneand internet monitoring they constantly did, and I still lived60 miles away in Indiana, I used my creativity to try toexpand the capability of that home security system to defend my housefrom the Village of Thornton. Each time I left for the three weeks, Imade sure to leave either one or two old TVs on 24 hours every day, nice andloud, and I placed them so that the light from the flashing TV screens would lightup walls and some window drapes. I left an old car parked outside there, eventhough the empty garage was available. I set up a couple shadow-makers in frontof some windows, back-lit by the TV sets, so that moving shadows would beseen from outside as though people were inside. And I set up software sothat one rather old computer was automatically turned on several timeseach day and then onto the Internet, where it would randomlygo to assorted web-sites, during the usual three-week intervalsthat I was away from the house. I figured that if they were going togo to the trouble of monitoring and reviewing the internet activity(of the Church computer!) inside the house, I would create as much faketraffic as possible, to keep them REALLY occupied! I wanted Thornton toTHINK that I was IN the house, to discourage their penchant for enteringthe locked house (again) when they thought I was NOT around. Thoseefforts on my part apparently convinced them, as later odd experiencesincluded rather vicious criticism for me not answering the doorwhen a Thornton official wanted to tell me some demands! Even though I wasfar off in a different State, HE yelled at me for not answering the door! Thatpretty much confirmed their constant attempts of monitoring myactivities, as well as their incompetence in actually doing it,as they made comments which clearly concluded that I was always there!They seemed to have no idea that I was RARELY there, generally livingIN A DIFFERENT STATE sixty miles away! It was a lot of trouble tohave to do all of that, but it seemed to have worked as therehas not been any indication that they have again entered mylocked and generally vacant house. I suppose that if they DIDget in again, they would have seen that the house has essentiallyNO furniture or even a kitchen table, and they might thenhave realized that no one was living in the house! Sortof darkly funny!An interesting future possibility seems likely. At some point,the world figures to realize that one or more of my energyinventions will be worth using for the benefit of millions of people. I would thinkthat situation will force people to try to finally decide whetherthe lies that Thornton made up and still repeats are true or not. The simplestresearch will show that I have NEVER been in any trouble beyond acouple Parking Tickets in a lifetime of driving. But there WILL thenbe over a thousand people who can confirm that Thornton repeatedlytold them the same lies for at least eight years. I am not sure howThornton will be able to deny having made up and spread those liesthen! But since the Federal government has passed laws whereMunicipal governments and Police Departments cannotbe charged with any crimes, they will obviously never get in anyactual trouble for having destroyed my life! Ah, America!Now, I realize that this entry seems to be a very bizarre one in thecollection of the pages in this Domain. Why is it in here? Well,if you think about it, you might see! Thornton seems to be persistentif nothing else. For ten years, they have tried to damage me inevery imaginable way, specifically apparently trying to set me up toseem to be guilty of crimes which were never true. (I foundfingerprints of the Mayor's Secretary inside my locked house,twice, in 2002; which made more sense in May 2003 when the Mayorhappened to casually mention to me on the phone that any Villageemployee was free to enter any house or building in the Village;many times when I would make the hour drive to cut the grass,I would usually discover as many as 7,000 photographic imagesin my locked house and on my shut-off computer, where I cannoteven imagine the total number of such nasty photos that theVillage had somehow inserted into my computer;then at least from 2004 to 2008, that same Mayor's Secretarystood for twelve to fifteen minutes about every second day,or at least 700 times; where in 2008, a phone company technicianfound a small shiny electronic device inside of their phoneequipment. So during 2007 and then certainly in 2008, I realizedwhat enormous danger I was probably in. By then, they hadapparently spent thousands of hours in trying to make it seemthat instead of being a quiet Minister, I was some sort ofevil person. They certainly worked at setting that upamazingly thoroughly, for about five years at that time.So I started to suspect that they planned to have a SWATTeam break into my house, where they expected to find all thenasty photos they had inserted into my computer. I thought aboutwhether there would be any way for me to defend against suchclaims, but it seemed clear that they spent those five yearsin setting that up where I probably would not be able topresent any defense. And so I realized that I HAD TO collectall my evidence regarding the many hundreds of amazing thingsthey have done, and uploaded the file (or files as it turned out)into my Domain of mostly religious information. So eachday since about mid-2007, I have expected to see all the Village'sPolice Cars fill my dead-end street to haul me away. The factthat THEY somehow apparently used my computer to collectnasty photos (that I guess a Police Department probably hadcollected) would certainly have made it LOOK like I wasguilty of everything they might try to claim against me.My thinking is that at some point, I would be brought beforea Judge, and I thought that providing the link to the page,or even getting an Attorney to print out all eightypages of my evidence, dated in 2007, might get a Judge to seethat things were not as he was told by them. Actually,I have a second reason for including these comments aboutthe very bad behavior of Thornton, where someone in the Villagemight have found this information by now. My reasoning is thatthey might see it as very foolish to now send in their SWATTeam, when they must now know that the Judge would see thetruth of these past ten years in the 2007 web-page information.In any case, so far they have not broken into my house orsent their SWAT team. Actually, many of the Police Officersand the Village employees who were in this in 2002 haveeither retired or transferred elsewhere, so maybe there arefew remaining that would be gung-ho about increasing theirharassment of me again.Since they seem likelyto continue those efforts, I have to assume that some day they willbreak into my house and find evidence which they will haveplaced there. I recognize that no one would then believe me to beinnocent, since they have not believed me for the past eight years,so whatever alleged evidence they will have hadplaced in my house or in my computer or whatever, will be seen asvalid. Well, now that this (2007) historical record of the evidencesof their previous activities has been on the Internet for several years,I am hoping that some Judge might realize that THEY had done somethings wrong and not me! I am a pretty smart person, but I havenot thought of any way to try to handle a SWAT Team attack on myhouse other than this one. IF a better response some day occurs to me,I would really much prefer NOT to have these bizarre matters in myotherwise high-class web-site!Oh, they have done a LOT of things over ten years, and I am a VERYgood research scientist, so I have documented MANY different of theiractivities, so that web-page (linked above) would print out to around80 pages! So you probably do NOT want to print it out, and probablydo not even want to read it all!Of course, I have no way of knowing what other methods ofharassment they have done to me over these years. It seems likelythat they probably used their fictitious evidence to get my nameput on any of hundreds of Government Watch-lists of supposedlydangerous people. Peculiarly, even an Officer friend of mine(of 25 years and from another State) could apparently notaccess such lists, so there is apparently no way that I couldever know whether they put my name on such lists, or evenhow many such lists. Apparently, it used to be that ANYPolice Department could anonymously add names to GovernmentWatch-lists, which suggests that if they got my name put(permanently and forever) on such lists, there would apparentlybe no reference to who added my name or when! Cute, huh?One final matter remains. Friends have long told me to sellthe house and move away, to have some peace, and possibly evenagain be able to perform as a Christian Pastor. I see some thingswrong with that. First, it would be CONCEDING TO THEM and ENCOURAGINGTHEM TO KEEP BEHAVING THAT WAY, possibly to countless others whomight not be able to defend themselves as well as a lily-whiteChristian Minister might. Second, it terrifies me to think ofhow they must harass residents of Thornton who DO have criminalrecords, or otherwise might be seen as deserving the treatmentthey have dumped on me. Third, recognizing that NO ONE is allowedto ever file any Lawsuit against any Municipal government or againstany local Police Department, they clearly must feel quite comfortablein having behaved in such offensive and illegal ways for thesepast ten years or more. I guess I am conceding that I have nopossible way of ever getting any of them Arrested or ever payingany Judgment for having destroyed my career as both a ChristianMinister and as a Nuclear Physicist, but this information onthe Internet MIGHT come to the attention of someone who wasconsidering buying a house in Thornton, Illinois, where theymight have second thoughts. That is not quite as good as havingthose mis-behaving Public Servants arrested where they might pay fortheir conduct, but if they have fewer potential victims in thefuture, that seems the best I can hope for. NOTHING is goingto stop them from having the attitudes and the arrogance they have. Amazing Bad Behavior of the Village of Thornton, Illinois, Part 2 Amazing Bad Behavior of the Village of Thornton, Illinois, Part 3The individual presentations generally include the dates of origin and ofpresentation on the Internet. These pages first started being placedon the Internet in January 1997. Most pages also include a notation of themost recent editing, which is often minor revisions or formattingimprovements. Some concepts had originated well before 1997.Carl W. JohnsonIn 1957, The US government (Scripps Institution of Oceanography)began recording data at the South Pole regarding many atmosphericcontaminants. That location was selected as being very distantfrom any human activities or factories and also from anyvegetation growth or activity. It was felt that measurementsat the South Pole would be accurate indications of the truecondition of the Earth's atmosphere.At bi-weekly intervals, air samples are collected in sets of three5-liter evacuated glass flasks, at the South Pole (Lat. 89 59'S. Long.24 48'W.). They are analyzed for CO2 at SIO (Scripps)using a nondispersive infrared gas analyzer with a water vapor freezetrap. Calibration gases are regularly tested as well to confirmaccuracy. The three sample flasks must agree within 0.40 ppmv tobe considered acceptable data. Scripps has more thorough descriptionof their procedures and equipment.The readings are averaged to obtain monthly and annual average values.Our running display uses the annual averaged figures from this South Poledata, interpolated for each 1/10 second.If the specific interpolated value at the South Pole for an instantwere 380.0 ppmv, this means that the atmosphere was then 0.000380carbon dioxide (by volume). It is accurately known that the totalEarth's atmosphere is 5.136 * 1015 metric tonnes.It is also necessary to apply a density factor of 1.529 (of carbondioxide to the average atmospheric mixture of gases) to convertthe ppm (volume) value to ppm (mass or weight).Therefore, it is simply necessary to multiply these three numbers5.136 * 1015 * 0.000380 * 1.529 to get 2984.12 billiontonnes of carbon dioxide in the entire Earth's atmosphere at thatinstant. THIS is the value that is continuously displayed here.The value has NOTHING to do with actual usage or consumptionfigures of fossil fuels, which actually generally give largernumbers for the annual increases.What about the accuracy of those three numbers that we have tomultiply? The density of carbon dioxide? No problem there.Extremely accurately known.The measurements of the air at the South Pole? Three identicalflasks, and when analyzed, they have to have extremely similarvalues to be considered acceptable. Ah HA! You think that themass of air in the atmosphere might be off. Well, YOU can confirmit! A Barometer measures the air pressure, right? And you mightaccept that it is usually around 14.7 pounds per square inch.Do you realize what that number actually means? It means that ifyou somehow marked out a column of air, one inch by one inch, all theway from the ground to the top of the atmosphere (outer space), thatair weighs a total of 14.7 pounds! Cool, huh? So now, all you haveto do is look up in some book what the total surface area of the Earthis (in square miles) and convert that to square inches, and multiply by14.7, to find the exact total weight of the entire Earth's atmosphere(in pounds). So all three of the numbers are really reliably accurate.In case you don't want to have to do this math, you already know thatatmospheric pressure (at sea level) is 14.696 pounds per square inch(or 10332.3 kilograms per square meter). We multiply this(metric) number by the total area of the surface of the earth, which is5.10101 * 1014 square meters. So YOU can calculate that thetotal mass of the Earth's atmosphere is 5.270 * 1018 kgor 5.270 * 1015 metric tons. For purists, the actual totalmass is slightly less because continents and mountains take upsome volume where air might otherwise be, the 5.136 * 1015metric tonnes used above. (So YOUR answer is actually a couplepercent wrong, high!)(Published Data)Atmospheric CO2 concentrations (ppmv) derived from flask and in situ airsamples collected at the South PoleSource: C.D.

Res. 94, 8549-8565).(Written in Oct 2008) As if that news (of the Global Warming link above) isnot bad enough, I have more bad news for you! Beginning around 1990, I triedto get people to realize that there were bad implications of the fact thatnearly everyone was already living beyond their means, primarily due to themassive use of credit cards. No one seemed to accept that SOME DAY theywould have to pay for all those things they were buying and enjoying then!As the (alleged) value of houses kept increasing, AND that banks werewilling to give amazingly large loans on all houses, many millions ofpeople started considering their homes to be piggy banks, providingeven more money to spend. No one seemed to ever even consider thathome values might drop to a more realistic level.People blame ALL of our financial problems on Banks that gave homeloans to millions of people who could not possibly have afforded thehomes they wanted to buy. Yes, the Banks have some responsibility, butthe PEOPLE who KNOWINGLY were agreeing to get such loans that theyknew that they would never be able to pay off were probably even moreguilty. There was also a common mindset that ANYONE could buy ANY (expensive)house and immediately sell it for $50,000 more than it was bought for,which APPEARED to create $50,000 cash for the person who flipped the house.During the 1990s, I often described America as having a network ofincredibly tightly strung violin strings, where if ANY of them wouldbreak, then EVERYTHING would come apart.I sometimes described an island economy where one personmowed lawns and another cut hair and a third made shoes. They chargedeach other exactly one dollar, and all three were happy! But over manyyears, they all felt they were not being properly rewarded and theyeach raised their prices many time. Now, they charge each other$1,000 to mow the lawn, $1,000 for a haircut and $1,000 for a pair ofshoes. They are all happy. Are they any better off than at the start?There is no REALITY to those increases, and the fact that they allmade the same increases caused there to be no actual effects at all.But now they each have a pile of money to count, which seems to makethem feel happy. They seem willing to overlook that a loaf of breadwhich used to cost 25 cents now costs each of them $250! And they alldescribe themselves as prosperous! (They are actually wrong about that!)I have noticed that the experts today are all telling everyoneto pay off their credit card debts. That certainly is correct guidance,but there are TWO huge problems! The first is that few people havethe money around to be ABLE to pay them off or even pay them down!The second problem is even worse, and no one seems to ever mention it!The whole ATTRACTION of credit cards (say, ten years ago) was to beable to have and use products that they knew they could not possiblyafford! In other words, GETTING and USING attractive products. Theexperts today are expecting people to have absolutely reversed thatbasic characteristic of human nature! They expect people today toPAY FOR PRODUCTS THEY USED TEN YEARS AGO! Which means that they wouldthereby guarantee that there was NO chance that they would ever beable to get to use MODERN products! Not with credit cards, becausethey are no longer allowed to. Not with cash, because they wouldbe using up any available cash TO PAY FOR THOSE ANCIENT PLEASURES!So, among the other catastrophes that we are starting to encounter,a really huge 900-pound gorilla in the room is the fact that the veryPOSSIBILITY of using credit cards in the future is somewhat unlikely atall. Concurrently, people today figure to be unable and unwillingto buy new things with actual cash, meaning that nearly all marketsfigure to dry up nearly completely. So, in addition to the problem thatmany businesses will soon lay off millions of people in order tosurvive as businesses (by reducing expenses), that problem for thebusinesses will be multiplied by the fact that there figure to beextremely few customers for their products and services. It ishard to see how ANY businesses will be able to survive this compoundproblem.The MAJORITY of American families have absolutely no idea howto live today without being able to put a lot of debt into the distantfuture on credit cards. It is hard to see how long that learningcurve will take before they are again able to live within theirown means. Considering that many millions will soon not have jobsat all, their level of means figures to be very lowindeed.During 2004, I told a number of people that I thought that in either2008 or 2009, the Stock Market would drop to below 6,000. Everyonelaughed at my ignorance! When it passed 14,000 during 2008, I wasseen as an idiot. I admit that it only dropped to around 8,000 during2009, but I was fairly close!But this will get FAR worse!. There is little doubt that by theSummer of 2009, people will be TALKING about similarities to the GreatDepression of the 1930s. But it seems likely that around then, millions ofpeople who lost their jobs will be defaulting on their credit cardpayments, and VISA and MasterCard (and Banks) will get hurt to a level thatthe current (2008) Wall Street crisis may seem minor! Among other things,all the people who now use credit cards to survive, may then be deniedthat ability, but the government will likely need to print upseveral trillion additional dollars to solve that problem.There will be so many problems which are EACH unimaginably huge,that it is hard to see how even the US government will be able toafford to throw enough money at all the problems to try to solvethem. So I believe that by about 2011 or 2012, the entire financialsituation in the US may seem absolutely hopeless. It seems certainthat the almighty dollar will necessarily be devaluated, maybeto about half of its current value. So IF any people actuallyhad any cash (or stocks), it would suddenly be worth half as much.It is hard to see how the situation in the US could significantlyimprove even by 2020. So the situation may be similar to buteven worse than the Great Depression. One reason it seems likelyto be worse is that in the 1930s, there were only MEN competing forthe few (manual labor) jobs, where now the work force is nearly twiceas large because of the fact that women are also working. And sincethe US enthusiastically passed NAFTA and GATT in the early 1990s,there are essentially NO high-paying manufacturing jobs stillremaining in the US. Where will the jobs be, for possibly50 million unemployed Americans who will all be on the vergeof starvation, without any home or apartment, and possibly even withoutany motor vehicles?A really troubling aspect of this is the immense number of handgunsin the US, MORE than the number of people! Say that YOUR familyscrimps and saves and you will actually be able to have enoughmoney to buy food to eat. Your neighbors will all know that,especially all of those who do not have jobs and do not have anymoney or even an apartment. But they will certainly have many handguns.Doesn't it figure that at some point, they will figure it out? That,in total desperation and starvation, they will walk up to YOUR doorand demand your food and money. They will get it. The only realquestion will be whether any of your family will still be alive.And Police will be of no use, as EVERY community will have such eventshappening every day, and there are not nearly enough Police even now.Even though the Global Warming catastrophe will certainly be farworse, at least it figures to be a number of decades away, while theseeconomic problems seem likely to begin seriously in 2009 and CONTINUEfor at least ten years. Sadly, everyone will become so focused oneconomic problems that environmental issues may be neglected. However,BECAUSE of the extreme severity of the coming economic problems,at least there can be a dark benefit that far fewer people will beable to be using up gasoline and diesel and Jet-fuel in wasteful vehicles.Additional note of June 2009: It is really troubling to me thatour leaders seem to often have incomplete logic behind their concepts!An excellent example is the Chrysler bailout. Rather than lettingChrysler totally fail and it assets sold off to pay for some debts,the Federal Government decided that would be too disruptive to theweak economy, so they did some tricky things to supposedly enableChrysler to continue. They got Fiat to agree to take over Chrysler'soperation by giving Fiat 6 billion dollars, and even then Fiat knewthat it was a bad idea! Chrysler went into bankruptcy, which hasalways taken at least five months in the Courts in the past, but throughsome trickery, Chrysler was declared out of bankruptcy in a month!That would be wonderful if that thinking was complete! But it is not!The vehicles that Fiat makes in Italy cannot be sold in the US, due toour many Federal Regulations. Everyone agrees that it would be at leastTWO FULL YEARS before Fiat could ever start building (small) cars in theUS that could be sold here. A recent news report announced thatFiat/Chrysler would be able to START making economy cars around December2011. See the problem? Our government rushed through Chrysler'sbankruptcy process, hurting some investors in the process, with theapparent intention of getting Chrysler back into operation manufacturingcars in the US, thereby re-employing all those thousands of workers wholost their jobs in the Bankruptcy. The PROBLEM is: So you put themall back in the factories, but WHAT DO THEY BUILD? The factories are NOTset up to build the little Fiats which can be sold in Europe, so theycannot do that. For two years, they will not be able to even STARTbuilding the alleged future Chrysler cars which are tiny and efficient.The ONLY vehicles that they are set up to build are essentiallyOBSOLETE! The giant gas-hogs which made most of Chrysler's profitsfor many years, but which no one will now buy. And if no one wouldbuy them before the Bankruptcy, even fewer would buy them from acompany that seemed clearly to simply be making work for those thousands of workers! So unless the Federal Governmentis willing to buy decks of cards for all those thousands of allegedChrysler employees to occupy their time with for the next two years,what else are they going to do? And no one can expect Fiat to bespending billions of dollars for that sort of activity, as they arefully occupied in just making and selling their Fiats in Europe!How can anyone expect that Fiat will be willing to wait for morethan two years before re-activating the American factories?How can anyone expect the American workers to wait for more thantwo years to get jobs back in uncertain factories? And why wouldanyone believe that millions of customers would jump to buy totallyuntested vehicles beyond two years from now, where much of anyprofits that occurred would certainly go to Italy and Fiat Corporate?With such a poorly thought-through plan, Chrysler is certainly toast.The American public is already upset in paying so many billions ofdollars to keep Chrysler and GM afloat so far, and that purse willcertainly soon dry up. And leaders will then FINALLY face theunavoidable fact that Chrysler assets will start getting hauled awayto Italy! Those assets cannot then even be sold to try to pay offany debts, since Fiat was given full control of them!Another update, of November 2009: Chrysler's problems are compounding,where they announced that their sales dropped about 35% to 40%last month. The Chrysler Execs finally announced that they recognizethat no one wants to buy the giant gas-hogs they have still beenmanufacturing, and they now intent to START planning to make smallercars within a few years. Chrysler will never be around that long!I am convinced that the really talented guy from Fiat will give upon this experiment of trying to save Chrysler, maybe around February1, 2010. Whatever day he flies back to Italy, the next day, Chryslerwill disintegrate completely.But there is a FAR more important fact is recent news. A year ago,gold was selling for about $800 per ounce. Yesterday, they announcedthat it had exceeded $1500 per ounce. No one seems willing to explainto the public just what that means, and it is REALLY bad and REALLYurgent.Gold does not actually increase or decrease in value very much, becausethe world's supply of it is relatively constant. When gold APPEARSto double in cost in some type of currency, the REALITY is thatTHAT CURRENCY had DROPPED TO HALF ITS VALUE.Government and leaders do NOT want people to realize this fact. Ifand when the public realizes this, absolute financial anarchy seemsvery likely. Why? Because, at some point, Geitner or Obama will haveto appear on National TV and announce that the (almighty) dollar isbeing DEVALUED to maybe half its previous value. At that moment,your paycheck will remain as many DOLLARS as before, but it willbe able to BUY only half what it did yesterday. If you think thatmillions of people are NOW on the verge of bankruptcy and ruin, imaginehow much worse it will become that day when everyone's INCOMEsuddenly only had half the remaining value. STORES will immediatelydouble all prices of all products, in order to be as profitable andstable as they were the day before. But customers would now have topay $400 for groceries rather than $200 the day before.This means that SAVINGS, PENSIONS, etc, will suddenly have half theworth as the day before. Everyone will soon have to live day-to-dayin real-time, in order to get paid at the increasing rates thatwill be necessary to keep up with the increasing prices of all neededproducts.Imagine how many fur coats will then be sold? Or luxury vacations onyachts? Or nearly anything beyond simply the needs of basic survival.How did this happen? Well, historians will argue that for decades.It probably was NECESSARY for Bush and Obama and their Administrationsto print trillions of dollars of new money to be able to giveastounding amounts of money to the banks to avoid the entire economyfalling off a cliff. The leaders were all familiar with the GreatDepression of the 1930s and they felt it necessary to try to do thosethings to avoid repeating the Great Depression. In that, they seemedto succeed. However, the fact that they had to print up all thatextra paper money, while the actual total value of all money wascertainly not increasing at all, and it might have decreased, setin motion the process toward devaluation of the dollar.The leaders all HOPED that the consequences would not occur.The assumptions were that if they could get all markets to becomereally profitable, then there would become widespread prosperity andeveryone would be happy and secure. There seems that there wasa horrible flaw in that logic, in not seriously considering thealternatives. Personally, I have a suspicion that it MIGHT haveactually been BETTER in the long run if they had simply stood backand LET the banks fail and the American economic system fall into adeep Depression, probably even worse than that in the 1930s.Because what figures to happen now seems certain to be far worse.The wild and rapid increases in the value of gold, seems CERTAIN toforce the hand of American government leadership, specificallyGeitner and Obama, to greatly devaluate the dollar. This has NEVERhappened before to America! But when it has happened to other countries,it has often led to a downward spiral that is self-perpetuating.Which suggests that further devaluations will then occur. One reallybad part of this is that it can happen VERY fast. In just months,gasoline might be $100 per gallon or more. A loaf of bread might be$5 or $20 or more. And NO ONE will be immune from the effects.Anyone who DID own any assets or money, would/will use it all uprather fast. And since there will be few customers for any products,how many businesses could survive? Meaning, how many jobs?One of the reasons for the downward spiral is that governments tendto start printing more and more money, to try to give out enough forpeople to be happy with. But the printing of trillions of dollarsof extra money merely causes more devaluation in its value, and nothingactually changes.The US government will certainly TRY to keep increasing SocialSecurity payments and Food Stamps, and making sure that military andpolice are paid. But that is likely to only be temporary solutions.When we did not go off a cliff at the end of 2008, by very creativeideas, the long term effect might have been that we will soon facea far taller cliff which we WILL fall off of. And the sorts of desperatemeasures that are generally applied in trying to reduce the bad effects,virtually always actually have the effect of making the cliff taller.Until this recent gold news, I thought it would be around 2012 or 2013before we got to the very darkest part of the economic catastrophe thatwe are now in. I now wonder if that cliff might be just a month or twoaway, near the very start of 2010. And it is really hard to see howanyone will be able to survive very well, and certainly NO ONE willprosper.I feel the need for an addition to these dark comments early in 2016.Saudi Arabia leaders do NOT want 28 pages of the 2001 attack documents toget released, because they apparently show that Saudi Royal Family memberswere somehow involved in the 9/11/01 attacks, possibly due to financiallysupporting the terrorists then. NOW, with the threat that the USgovernment is talking about RELEASING those 28 pages of old files, theSaudi government has threatened the US with their intention of SELLINGeverything they own in the US. It's around a total of $750 billiondollars, mostly of Real Estate and Financial documents. This WILL behorrific if they actually SELL all that stuff! Why? Because the ACTUALTOTAL AMOUNT OF ACTUAL REAL US MONEY is only around $260 billion dollars.Yes, TOTAL DEBTS in the US are around $60 trillion dollars, but theproblem is that virtually all of that is based on imaginary money , that is money that had simply been PRINTED UP without anything REAL behind it.Long ago, we had a gold economy where all paper money was ACTUALLY BASEDon REAL GOLD, stored in Fort Knox and elsewhere. Paper money was thencalled SILVER CERTIFICATES which meant that anyone could cash it in forreal silver of that exact value. Paper money stopped saying that Silver Certificate statement, and in recent decades, there is reallyvery little REAL assets which stand behind the astounding amounts ofpaper money we throw around and the $60 trillion dollars of LOAN documents.Fortunately, virtually NO ONE is aware of this really scary situation.IF ANYTHING happens where the United States has to TRY to back up EVENONE TRILLION DOLLARS of all that paper we WILL be in very sudden,desperate trouble. There are quite a few countries which currentlyHOLD enormous amounts of US paper. China is the largest, with their$1.8 trillion or so (much from all the WalMart products we have allbought which had been manufactured in China). But China is smart enoughto NOT cause our American monetary system to collapse, so they know betterthan to try to sell too much of American assets (for cash) too fast.However, Saudi Arabia and their $750 billion of American assets COULDtear the wheels off the American economy, as soon as they try tosell even just $250 billion of them, as that would suck up ALL THE CASHwhich EXISTS in AMERICA! On THAT DAY, all 330 million Americans willfind that NOTHING that they consider to be assets can be sold for cash!ATM machines will no longer be able to disburse ANY cash, maybe ever again!Banks themselves may likely ALL close because they will have NO actualmoney that they could dispense to Savings Account Holders or anyone with anyReal Estate holdings that they want to get a loan on. In principle, thiscould all happen IN ONE DAY, although most people will not really graspthe true catastrophe in it. But as soon as people realize that theyCANNOT get ANY cash, imagine the effect on those people and governmentswhich THINK they hold that $60 trillion dollars! NONE of that is REAL!As long as NO ONE KNOWS, everyone just bops along with smiles on theirfaces, because they BELIEVE they have assets of millions of dollars.In 1929, many people in the Stock Market jumped out of windows when they(suddenly) realized that the enormous wealth they THOUGHT they owned,did not actually exist! This current situation will be FAR worse thanthat! Rich people today know these things and the moment they realizethat catastrophe was coming, they WILL try to WITHDRAW as much of thatACTUAL $250 billion as they can (to send it to some Island bank for theirpersonal account). So even the Saudis probably will not actually beable to SELL very much of their $750 billion of assets. And once allbanks and all credit cards no longer work, immense numbers of people,in the US and around the world, will suddenly discover that they canno longer buy food for their families, no matter WHAT a Bank Statementmight say. Wow!Sorry for the darkness of these comments, but these are not reallyOPINIONS but nearly certainly COMING FACTS. I actually truly hope thatI am totally wrong about these things! But I had wished that I wouldbe wrong about the economic/Wall Street things as well, and thosethings seemed to have occurred, even more worse than I had expected.This Domain contains an assortment of fairly simple devices which YOUmight make: to eliminate using fossil fuels to heat your home and alsosave that $2,000 each winter that you might be spending in that way; to eliminate the big electric bills in the summer for air conditioning; to provide refrigeration and freezing for food preservation andstorage, without significant electric bills; to provide reasonable amounts of electricity from several differentpossible sources; to provide perfectly safe drinking water that is actually removedfrom the humidity in the air!; to heat domestic hot water, without fossil fuels and nearly for free; to possibly improve the food production of greenhouse fruits andvegetables by a factor of five, with even better taste!; if there is some business-person or bank in your (rural) communitythat has around $1.8 million to invest, your community could createat least a hundred good-paying LOCAL jobs and also have a LOCAL sourceof large amounts of wind-generated electricity, and the cost tothe business-person and bank would be quickly paid back by selling theelectricity AND through government Tax Credits, where the whole systemwould essentially become free within around two to three years! and assorted other things that MIGHT become really crucial if theeconomy really tanks, but which are wonderful for both providinga lot of INDEPENDENCE from all exterior suppliers and also substantialmoney savings.A presentation at Self-Sufficiency - Many Suggestionsis a good starting point for those devices.Observation: These first subjects, regarding Global Warmingand ending the Iraq War, seem to me to be incredibly important. Evenif my comments contain flaws, I would like to think that they shouldbe at least considered, specifically because no one else seems to havecome up with any credible solutions to these two enormous problems.So, after I developed the Iraq solution in October 2006, I mailed outaround 70 letters and e-mailed around 340 notes, to a wide range ofpublic figures. To government and political leaders, to many networks,specific programs that have discussed the problems in Iraq, to thirtytwo Political Science Professors in major Universities, to many newspapers,even to reporters and others actually in Iraq. Doesn't it seem thatsome of those people should have had at least some initial interestin a new idea? Even if it were only regarding how and why a ChristianChurch Pastor was trying to save large numbers of Muslims from dyingin a civil war? I have been extremely surprised that in over elevenmonths, I have received a grand total of TWO responses from those410 contacts! One was from a Poli Sci Prof who berated me for wastingmy and her time. The other was in December 2006 from a reporter in Baghdadwho responded that he was VERY interested in hearing any new idea. (But henever again responded to the added information!) I rarely mindbeing told that my ideas are without value, so even if he (or any of the400 others) thought that the idea was stupid and a waste of time, I wouldhave thought that I should have received a polite rejection???Each person is free to make their own decisions in life. But I haveto wonder about the Poli Sci Profs. They ARE knowledgeable in worldconflicts, since that is what they Teach about! One would assume thatthey CARE about their subject, but that appears to have been anincorrect assumption! But further, I would have thought that those32 Professors would have had a SELFISH reason for wanting to possiblypromote this concept. There are almost one hundred thousand PoliticalScience instructors in the US. Few of them ever become noted for anything!But I had thought that at least ONE of those 32 Professors would haveseen an OPPORTUNITY for him/her, in that how many Poli Sci Profsever even TRY to end a major war? Even if the concept turned outnot to work, I had thought that a Professor who chose to alertothers in Poli Sci about a possible way to end the war inIraq. would likely have gained massive respect and reputationamong colleagues! Like, regarding future EMPLOYMENT possibilities???And I had NOT expected any of them to commit years of their life todeveloping a concept, but merely maybe an hour or two to see ifthere might be any positive feedback. Sure, if all the feedback wasnegative, he/she would have wasted an hour of valuable time!Do our leaders actually CARE about solving these things? I am notinsisting that I have any brilliant ideas, but only that leaders shouldbe willing to at least CONSIDER ideas other than their own! Sayssomething about trying to do Christian Good Deeds, doesn't it?In any case, it looks like the leaders and politicians insist onforging ahead with their own assumptions that massive amounts of moneyis the ONLY solution to all problems! That is even sadder, that theyhave such narrow perspectives! Either brute force (Iraq, Afghanistan,North Korea, Iran, Palestine, Lebanon, etc) or massive amounts ofAmerican taxpayer money is always the only solution to all problems!Spock would say Interesting! In Oct. 2006, I started trying to get authorities to considera very unique concept toward ending the war in Iraq, specifically endingthe sectarian violence between Shia and Sunni Muslims. I first triedto let Colin Powell be able to get credit for it, but there was noresponse from several letters and dozens of e-mails. I then triedto let around 40 other American leaders know about it, starting withthe people who were part of the Iraq Study Council, James Baker andLee Hamilton and others. No responses from anyone. I then sentpreliminary descriptions to 32 Professors of Political Scienceat major Universities, including DePaul, Purdue (main campus), PurdueNorth Central Campus, Purdue Calumet Campus, University of Chicago,Governors State College, Prairie State College, South SuburbanCollege and others. In one phone call to SSC, the (woman) Professorwas incredibly disrespectful, even telling me that she was reallybusy and that she should have ended the call five minutes earlier,as she hung up on me. I have always wondered what immensely importantduties she has that are more important than avoiding the deaths of1,500 additional American troops since then, along with around 100,000Iraqi people! It must be great to be so important that you canblow off a Minister who is trying to save thousands of human lives!Only one even sent an e-mail back, and that wasto tell me to stop wasting my time! I tried assorted newspapers andTV networks and TV programs such as Meet The Press, the Charlie RoseShow, Think Tank, McLaughlin Group, the PBS News Hour, Nightline andothers, with no responses at all except for a couple automated responses.I tried to contact Tom Friedman in several ways.I then tried to contact all the news reporters I could in Iraq, suchas John Burns, Sabrina Tavernise, Bobby Ghosh, Richard Engel,Dexter Filkins, George Packer, and many others. No responses.I even tried contacting an assortment of Arabic newspapers andtelevision media such as al Jazeera. No responses.I am tempted to wonder if no one really cares! Or if no one reallywants to stop that war. Or that there is some immense confidencethat the leaders suddenly know what they are doing! In any case,after six months of really serious effort to get ANYONE to simplylisten to the concept, with zero interest after hundreds of e-mailsand dozens of letters, I really do not know what else to try. The onlyremaining thought I had was to hire someone to translate it intoArabic and then submit it again to Arabic newspapers and television.I had really figured that at least a few people would have responded,if only to tell me that it is a dumb idea! But no one ever evenhad enough interest to learn what the actual concept was, to form suchan opinion! These days, people are all so BUSY that they are only willingto waste 10 seconds in reading the first sentence of any communication theyget, upon which they then believe they TOTALLY UNDERSTAND every nuanceof any subject, and to also find the correspondence to have wasted theirtime! Very strange! I will always believe that it was Iraq'sone true chance at avoiding an incredibly bloody massive civil war,which will certainly involve Muslims around the world.There actually seems a credible possibility that the devices that ANYONEcan build [to heat their homes and make their hot water] can have ahuge effect at correcting the Global Warming problem. Yet, of around185 attempts made so far to let news organizations, the British government,and many others know about this (nearly all by e-mail, so far), ZEROresponses!Do our leaders actually CARE about solving these things? I am notinsisting that I have any brilliant ideas, but only that leaders shouldbe willing to at least CONSIDER ideas other than their own! Some friendshave told me that the fact that I am giving away the construction plansto the two devices causes people to assume that they have no value!I suppose that might be true, which is really sad. Says something abouttrying to do Christian Good Deeds, doesn't it?In any case, it looks like the leaders and politicians insist onforging ahead with their own assumptions that massive amounts of moneyis the ONLY solution to all problems! That is even sadder, that theyhave such narrow perspectives! Either brute force (Iraq, Afghanistan,North Korea, Iran, Palestine, Lebanon, etc) or massive amounts ofAmerican taxpayer money is always the only solution to all problems!Each American Family has ALREADY Committed around $10,000 of futureincome to paying for the adventure in Iraq(2007) I have been amazed that NO reporter ever seemsto have mentioned that there are roughly 75 million families in theUS and that we have so far spent at least $750 billion of (our)taxpayer money simply because President Bush insisted on gettingone person (Saddam) killed in 2003. What has never been mentioned is thatthat represents $10,000 from every single American family (so far)!Maybe some American families enjoy giving $10,000 for such a purpose,but most of us could have had far better purposes for the $10,000which will eventually have to be paid by our own families!The US Government had insisted on capturing or killing Osama bin Ladenand Zarqawi almost immediately after 9/11/01, and they soon offereda $25,000,000 reward for anyone who enabled them to find either oneof them. For four years, they had ZERO success, and rarely seemed to evenhave much of an idea of what REGION either of them were in!I have no doubt that I deserve to receive the $25MM for Zarqawi!On Apr. 25, 2006, I sent the following e-mail to half a dozenNational News media organizations, including Charlie Rose, ABC Nightline,Think Tank, Foreign Exchange, Meet the Press:The video of Zarqawi today may have extremely important evidence in it!For the past two years, I have been trying to get word to the CIA regardingthis regarding the many outdoor videos of bin Laden. I know that you havecontact with people high in the CIA, so I ask that you inform them of thefollowing.Around two years ago, our Intelligence demonstrated a face recognitionsystem at the Super Bowl game. Each face scanned was quickly compared toimages of many terrorists and criminals. I don't think the success of thatdemonstration was ever presented, but the basic concept is what I see ofvalue.I have recommended that UAVs (unmanned aerial vehicles) be flown at lowaltitude up and down every valley of Afghanistan, with (two) side directedcameras taking an image every second. The result would be a database ofbackground images from every location (with around 150 feet spacing betweenimages, if the images are taken once per second and the aircraft flown at100 mph). Now that Zarqawi made a similar video (probably in Iraq), Irecommend the same be done there.The existing face recognition program software could then beused WITHOUT MODIFICATION. Instead of hundreds of thousands of photosof faces, the database would be filled with hundreds of thousands ofthese UAV photos of backgrounds. Then a frame of a bin Laden or Zarqawivideo could be entered as the suspect face , to be compared withall the hundreds of thousands of background images in the database.The existing system should then be able to identify a few reasonably possible locations which could have been the background ofZarqawi. Within seconds, our Intelligence could know EXACTLY where Zarqawiwas on last Friday when he allegedly made that video! In any case, such evidence seems extremely valuable to me! I have never gotten any responsein any previous attempts to apprise our Intelligence regarding this concept.I truly believe they might then capture or kill Zarqawi and/or bin Ladenwithin days!I was educated as a Nuclear Physicist at the University of Chicago, so Ilike to think that I have some idea regarding this working as described!So I hope you will try to pass word along for me, and for our country'ssecurity.Carl JohnsonForty-two days later, they found Zarqawi and killed him.The newsreports in the first few hours (as on BBC) described that they hadanalyzed the videotape and figured out where he was, and they announcedthat that was how they got him. However, just hours later,they were announcing a very different story, where some localpeople had turned him in.I can understand why they would have done that. They would clearly wantto be able to use the same method in finding Usama bin Laden fromthe videotapes that he would regularly make outdoors. Obviously,they would not want UBL to know that it was a bad idea to do anymore outdoor videotapes. So I understand that that would have wantedthe news media to present a different story.Still, they had chased Zarqawi for more than four years without findinghim. Then I provide my method and 42 days later, Zarqawi is dead,and the initial news reports described essentially my exact concept!It seems to me that I deserve the $25 million reward that the USgovernment offered for information toward the capture or killing ofZarqawi! Some how, I don't think I will ever be given MY MONEY!Actually, I think I could have qualified for the similar reward regardingbid Laden several years earlier. In late 2002, the US Military believedthat bid Laden and many other al Qaeda leaders were living in a very deepcave inside some mountains in a very rugged area which separatesAfghanistan and Pakistan. My friend Peter Jennings (of ABC News) had airednews reports where it was believed that they were living around 1500 feetdeep underground. The US plans were to use many of their ferociouslypowerful bunker-buster bombs to demolish the entire mountain!I (and probably many others) found that to be a truly foolish approach.It was pure Military thinking, and would certainly have resultedin the killing of thousands of nearby civilians by giant flyingrocks, parts of the mountain that were blown away!So I described a far more logical approach to Peter Jennings. I pointed outthat people living inside a cave NEEDED AIR TO BREATHE. I mentioned thatcaves generally tended to only have a very few internal passagewayswhere air could get into the cave system. I pointed out that the US Militarycertainly has extremely sensitive infrared imaging equipment whichcould have monitored the vicinity of the mountain.Finding where DISCARDED air left the cave system would have beenvery easy, as that air would have become slightly WARMED from the98.6 F exhaled breaths of all the people living inside. Such outletswould likely be high on the mountain, as such warmed air tends to rise,even inside caves. (It is a scientific process called thermosiphoning.)However, I felt that the value of finding whereair was LEAVING the mountain was of limited value. Yes, small bombscould cause such outlets to become sealed shut, but a large mountaincould contain a lot of air, and even without circulation, people mightbe able to live a year on the remaining air supply inside a large mountain.But the valuable part of what I described to Mr. Jennings was thatthere had to be INTAKES of air into the cave system! They wouldcertainly be LOW on the mountain or even slightly away from themountain. Again, infrared imaging, as well as precision radar, coulddetect MOTION patterns of airflows in the area. Good Techniciansshould be able to use computers to discover statistical patterns inthose airflows, to (quickly) discover WHERE they were.I noted to Peter that such INTAKES represented critical air suppliesfor any residents INSIDE the mountain. I then mentioned to him twodifferent approaches. The less desirable one was to use small bombs toseal off those air intakes, but again, that could leave large amountsof air already inside the mountain, for months of survival. I thensuggested to Peter that if deadly airborne poisons were simply airdroppednear the entrances of such airpaths, within HOURS, the entire cavesystem inside the mountain would be filled with such poisonous gases.If the poison chosen was not obvious by smell or appearance,it seemed certain to me that within a day or two, anything livingINSIDE the caves would have died!As generally was true, Mr. Jennings was extremely attentive to mysuggestions. His position as a world-famous Journalist gave himeasy access to the ears of virtually everyone in power! And helater informed me that he had called a couple Generals in thePentagon (without identifying them to me) to describe my approach.Peter later seemed surprised that they did not seem to ever try myconcept. It certainly was far simpler than what they had decidedto try to do (bomb the entire mountain to oblivion!), a lot quicker,and a lot cheaper to do!I realize that my concept was fairly complex in some of its details,and maybe Peter was not able to get the Generals to fully graspthe concept or its premise. But I still see that as a far morelikely successful way of eliminating bin Laden back in 2002! But,like with Zarqawi four years later, I have a feeling that I wouldnever have been given the $25 million reward! Of course, the factthat Peter Jennings was fully aware of my sourcing that concept, and thatHE was the method where the Military first learned about it, I wantto believe that my friend Peter would have stood up for my case,and somehow gotten the Pentagon to quietly gotten thereward to me! But there seemed no indication that any Militaryeffort along these lines was ever tried, or if they were, no news ofthem ever leaked out. In any case, bin Laden was apparently not killedin that mountain, and so I guess I didn't deserve any reward thenanyway! But, still, it sure seemed to me (and to Peter) that myapproach made a lot of logical sense!The US Congress would simply pass a Law where NO Trader or MutualFund would be permitted to BUY OR SELL more than 1% of their holdingsof any specific company on any one day! Period! That wouldinstantly and completely eliminate the wild speculation onstock price changes and would re-install the original intent of theStock Markets as being a source of financing of businesses.OK. As a Physicist, this would seem out of my bailiwick. But Physicistsare VERY logical people, and I believe I see TWO things that shouldIMMEDIATELY (Oct 2008) be done! Of course, no one of actual importancewill ever read this, so my thoughts on this really do not matter,do they? And you are free to agree or disagree with the following,but I do NOT intend to be debating this matter withthousands of people who each feel they have even better ideas!First, we must note that the ORIGINAL intent of the Stock Market wasto provide a constant supply of money that is needed to supportthe many businesses which need it to operate. Fine. It providedthe money for companies to use to start and build their businesses.And as long as stock market transactions were SLOW, it seemed to workpretty well. Millions of INDIVIDUAL stockholders may or may notdecide to buy or sell stock on a particular day, and CHANGES in theoverall RATING (value) of any one company would or could rarely changeby more than 1% in a week or a month. Fine.But the PURPOSE of the Stock Market greatly changed, primarily about30 years ago. It became a GAMBLING GAME for a very small number ofpeople. Unfortunately, it was and is not an entirely FAIR gamblinggame, as those same people have the capability of MANIPULATING themarket to their own PERSONAL ends.The well-being of a company is no longer of any importance at all!And the value that a stock trades at has often changed at fantasticspeeds, where the (alleged) total value of a company sometimes DOUBLESin a single day, or HALVES! This has NOTHING to do with the actualcompany, and rarely has much to do with the company's sales or success.A simple RUMOR which is good or bad can cause EVERYONE to suddenlywant to either buy or sell the stock of that company, and there isNO importance any more of whether the rumor was even true!An example seems appropriate, which has been repeated EVERY DAY for manyyears! A stock is described as having a particular value, say $10per share, at the start of a trading day. One of those few powerfulpeople (who have access to massive money or credit) decides thathe thinks he can make some money on the stock of thatcompany. So he BUYS UP maybe 100,000,000 shares of that company, maybein a quick series of purchases. ALL THE OTHER TRADERS AND INVESTORS SEEthe enormous traffic in the stock of that company AND that the stockprice is rapidly going up. So THEY want to buy in (with the intentof also getting very rich very fast). And everyone then sees that thetraffic in that stock is growing even faster and the prices are shootingup even faster. So, maybe by the end of the SAME DAY, the price of ashare of that company's stock has risen spectacularly to maybe $20.And at THIS point, the person who STARTED this whole thing decides toSELL those 100 million shares he bought that same morning. But now hecan SELL them at $20 per share when he had bought them that same morning for$10 per share. In this single company's stock, in a single day, hefirst SPENT one billion to buy the stock, but then RECEIVED TWO billionlater that same day! In a single day, with a single stock, hehas just made a personal profit of one billion dollars!And he is proud of himself for having accomplished something!But what did he actually accomplish? After he sells all hisstocks, everyone else will see the massive selling (which is NEVERidentified as being from ONE seller or a million sellers, which isincredibly useful in this situation for them!) and they will alsosell. And the amount they could sell for will drop rapidly, possiblyback to the original $10 per share.Did the COMPANY benefit at all from this? No, because their totalvalue of all their stock did not change after the whole day was done.The Trader made his billion dollars. Where did that money come from?Was it printed up just to give to him? No. It actually came fromthe LOSSES of exactly one billion dollars by OTHER INVESTORS and TRADERS!Those are the large numbers of people who got in late, and had to buy thatstock for $18 or $20 per share, but then quickly discovered that theprice soon plummeted and they had to TRY to sell it for $14 or $12 or$10 per share, thereby losing money on EVERY share of it. EACH of themmight have only owned a few hundred or few thousand shares, so theirINDIVIDUAL losses might have been moderate. But COLLECTIVELY, theynecessarily lost that billion dollars that day!IF there was any sort of MEDIA REPORT which indicated that that particularcompany was ABOUT TO ANNOUNCE a cure for cancer or some super-efficientvehicle, it even gives the people who dream up such schemes a sort ofCREDIBILITY upon which the herd of later investors would enthusiasticallyjump! And they KNOW that! In some cases, the Traders KNEW somesuch fact BEFORE it was otherwise known, but that sort of Insider Tradingwas made illegal when a lot of them were cheating other investorsin such ways. But it still happens every day, but the Traders are just farmore cautious now to make sure not to leave any evidence that they hadpreviously known of what was about to happen or be said. The entireprocess has evolved a lot, to a point where actual Inside Information(for which they could be sent to prison) is generally no longer evennecessary, and simply a RUMOR is all that is needed to enabledoing this. And they know that they could NEVER be sent to prisonfor acting on a rumor!They DON'T call that cheating each other, and essentially they ALLneed to do such things just to be competitive with all the otherswho do it. And so there has developed an astounding tunnel-visionregarding ONLY looking for HUGE PROFITS TODAY, where no other considerationsmatter. Such as the effects on the company whose stocks are usedfor such trickery.Actually, this sort of manipulation of the value of a stock wasopenly done and very common in the 1920s, and it was a directcause of the Stock Market Crash of 1929 and the followingGreat Depression. So Laws were passed to make such behaviors illegal.The problem is that top Executives in Wall Street are very smart, andthey have found several ways to EFFECTIVELY do the same today butwithout any evidence that they have done anything wrong. They seenothing wrong in using such methods, which are known to have beenthe direct cause of the Great Depression, as long as they believethey cannot get caught!There is a slightly more legal variant of this, which is definitelyused by every Trader, every day! Say that we see a Stock that iscurrently $10.00. And a Trader FEELS LIKE GAMBLING! He THINKS thatstock will rise by 1%, up to $10.10 that day. So he buys the100 million shares. It turns out that IF HE WAS RIGHT IN HIS GAMBLE,and he would sell all those shares at the end of the day, he would earn ten cents on each of those shares, or $10 millionon that single stock in that single day. AND, of course, he knowsthat the EFFECT of his buying all that stock will be seen by allother traders and investors, which NEARLY GUARANTEES that his gamble will turn out to be true, and not actuallymuch of a gamble at all!This IS what the modern Stock Market is! It has virtually NOTHINGto do with the initial reasons for stock markets! It is simplya giant game of Monopoly, where if you are big enough and have accessto enough money, you can CAUSE self-perpetuating profits for yourself(but at the cost of the exact same amount of losses by other investors!)The Stock Market is obviously a lot more complex than this simplifieddescription, but the core of its operation is essentially as describedhere. MOST stocks are now bought and sold by DAY TRADERS, people whoONLY intend to own any particular stock for a very brief time.MUTUAL FUNDS have made this even worse, as the few individuals whooperate such funds can buy and sell billions of dollars of stocksevery day, and they do.A significant point to be made here is that REALITY has very littleplace in this whole operation! The ACTUAL value of all the assetsof General Motors is irrelevant! It is ONLY what the few handfulsof individuals who can buy and sell billions of dollars of stocksbelieve that matters! And, because of the rather incestuousarrangement, those people tend to follow each other's movementswith similar movements of their own, because they do NOT want to befound to be the person who moved too slow and therefore caused hisFund to be left out of great profits.Another amazing factor is an absolute lack of transparency. Absolutelyno one seems to know WHO is buying or selling or HOW MUCH or evenwhether they actually have the funds to back such purchases! In fact,there have been MANY times when Traders officially BOUGHT massiveamounts of stock when they did not have the available money to do so,ASSUMING that they would again sell it all within a few hours,at the expected profit, in order to provide the money that SHOULDHAVE EXISTED in order to even start the whole thing! There is a LOTof this sort of trickery which occurs every day related to theStock Market, but since NO ONE EVER IS ABLE TO KNOW (due to thelack of transparency), they are all able to get away with such things!It is truly unbelievable that it can work at all! It is virtuallyONLY a gambling game between a very small numbers of heavy hitters!For at least five years, I have speculated about an even darkerpossibility that I see possible. I usually describe it about like this:Imagine that you have a roomful of people who all agree that theHEALTH of the stock market is critically important to their individualsuccesses and wealth. Under NO conditions, could they ALLOW any reallybad things to ever occur. These people would be those couple dozenpeople who each have the capability of buying or selling billionsof dollars of stock at any personal whim.So they see that some important stock seems to be dropping in price.One or more of them immediately offers to buy a billion dollars of thatstock. Since all investors and Traders would immediately see that hugepurchase, any public sense of panic would vanish, and PROBABLY millionsof private investors might each then decide to buy a little bit, where theperson would then be able to sell off the billion dollars of stocks,smoothly and INVISIBLY.I often felt that such an incestuous relationship was the ONLYexplanation for days when there was horrendous business news, but thenthe Stock Market shot UP by 400 points! Such things should NOT bepossible! I remember one day a year or two ago when Ford announceda tremendous loss of billions of dollars, the unemployment figure hadgreatly risen, and two other pieces of major negative business newsoccurred, and yet the Stock Market shot up that day! I tend to thinkthat COULD NOT have happened without some sort of collusion like whatI had speculated. Of course, since there is no transparency, there couldnever have been any way to prove that my suspicions might have been true!The SolutionWith the preamble above, we can now consider the suggestion. Is it togive $110 billion to AIG, which they immediately put to use in sendingthemselves on a luxury holiday? No. Does it involve ANY US Taxpayermoney? No. It is even quite simple to do! The US Congress wouldsimply pass a Law where NO Trader or Mutual Fund would be permittedto BUY OR SELL more than 1% of their holdings on any one day! Period!That would ELIMINATE much of the INCENTIVE of the Brokers to beDay Trading to swipe some quick millions of dollars, because they wouldNOT be allowed to be buying or selling that large a fraction of theirholdings ON ANY SINGLE DAY. It would inspire and require LONGER-TERMPLANNING on the part of Traders and Investors, getting back to theINITIAL REASON for the Stock Market to exist.This is in total contrast to the current approaches of Washington,of PROVIDING hundreds of billions of (taxpayer) dollars to allegedlystabilize Wall Street. Washington can't seem to realize that byENSURING plenty of money, with the current rules, it ENCOURAGESevery Trader to make his best guess as to WHEN he should buy absolutely everything! Given the depressed levelthat they all believe the Market is now in, they each see an OBVIOUSway that they can make THEMSELVES many billions of dollars, bybuying enormous amounts of stock when it is low and then selling itALL a few days later. Why doesn't Washington see that they will beFEEDING such greedy people? That some of our taxpayer billions willDIRECTLY go into billions of personal profits, leaving the Marketno better than before? And it is ALL because the Traders are ALLOWEDto make fantastically huge purchases and sales of stocks every fewminutes!The ONE PERCENT PER DAY rule would also eliminate the tremendoussurges and then personal incentivesof Traders to be buying and selling obscene amounts of stock, justto be running with the herd! The Stock Market would NECESSARILYbe based more on sanity, as it should be! The ACTUAL VALUEof the total assets (minus liabilities) of any company would becarefully examined before making any major stock commitment in thatcompany.As long as Traders can expect to be able to make billions ofdollars in what they call daily profit taking , nothingwill really change! It would not matter much what thegovernment might try to invoke, human nature would find a wayto bypass it, because they can taste those enormous profits!This simple concept would FORCE all investors and Traders to essentiallyadopt Warren Buffet's LONG view of the Stock Market. Of ONLY buyingwhen there was ACTUAL perceived value existing, and no longerrunning thither and yon in buying and selling stocks as if they weresimply scoring markers in a game of Monopoly!I actually have a SECOND recommendation as well! I believe that ifmy friend Peter Jennings was still with us, he would have institutedthe following, so if it should ever be adopted, my hope would be thatit be called the Jennings approach!I believe that Peter would have invited: Warren Buffett, Bill Gates,Melissa Gates, President Sarcozy of France, Tony Blair, Robert Redford,Charlie Rose, Michael Jordan, Will Smith,Richard Petty, Bono, President da Silvaof Brazil, at least one prominent Japanese and two prominent Chinese andtwo prominent Indian, and a few others; to a regular meeting in a remotelocation such as Mr. Redford's Ranch. There, with NO ONE ELSE than thempresent, they would have free-wheeling discussions about ALL mattersthat are critical to the world's people. NO politicians are in that mix(but Jimmy Carter seems a possible exception to that), and no bureaucrats.The point would be that they would bring up all kinds of ideas and probablyimmediately shoot them down. And occasionally, if they felt they needed expert advice regarding the Economy or Nuclear Power or GlobalWarming or anything else, THEY could decide to invite SEVERAL expertsin the appropriate fields (for only one day) where they would thenbe able to ask their questions. Several so that they could heardiffering views on any specific issue.The theory would be that they would FIND A CONSENSUS regarding whatshould be said or done. And THEN, EACH of them would return totheir normal life and start to have Press Conferences, where theyEXPLAIN TO THE PUBLIC WHY they feel confident that the solution theyhave adopted seems to make sense. A member of the public wouldtherefore see Bono on TV describing the EXACT same plan that Tony Blairsimilarly presented, which is identical to the plan that MichaelJordan and Bill Gates would be saying.The POINT of this is that THE PUBLIC would very quickly see thatMANY of the famous people THAT THEY RESPECT all seem to be incomplete agreement about what is needed to be done.This is actually a modern version of what Franklin Roosevelt haddone to INSPIRE CONFIDENCE in the American people in 1933. Thepeople's lives had actually not materially improved, but they allFELT confident that FDR knew how to lead them back toprosperity and happiness . (As it turned out, FDR made manybad decisions regarding things to try, but as long as the peopleBELIEVED in his leadership, they were all confident that the USwould recover.)So the final aspect of this suggestion is that the group of 20 peopleprobably would KNOW when they needed to get together. If PeterJennings was still with us, he certainly would have known, and hewould certainly have simply called each of them and asked them if theirschedules could include a Meeting for a few days at XX/XX/XX to XX/XX/XX.But it seems good that if the PUBLIC saw need for them to meet, THEYcould somehow initiate the process for them as well!PEOPLE would feel INVOLVED. They would feel CONFIDENT. And theywould TRUST those people who they had earlier learned to have greatrespect for.America faces enormous problems ahead. It is NOT just thatmillions of houses are worth less than people owe on them,in other words, they have no equity in the house they live in,or that they also rarely have any savings, or that their 401-kand other retirement plans have lost trillions of dollars due toproblems in the stock market.A CENTRAL problem in coming years will be there will be few JOBSfor the many millions of people who are out of work. A similarsituation occurred during the 1930s, but it was actually BETTERthen because there were millions of MANUFACTURING jobs in the USthen. Now, there are not, because the NAFTA and GATT agreementshad enabled and encouraged nearly all manufacturers to movetheir factories to countries where workers are ENTHUSIASTICat working for 50 cents per hour, instead of American workers whowere generally unhappy at being paid $30/hour for the same work.A complicating factor is that, because BOTH men and women now work,there are essentially twice as many American people who will besearching for the few jobs which will be available. An interestingaspect of this is that it figures that there will be soon millionsof workers who WILL BE WILLING to work for BELOW minimum wage,out of desperation to earn enough for food for their family!How will employers deal with that, as they will get into deep troubleif they ever pay any employee less than Minimum Wage!In any case, I believe there is a really obvious AND WONDERFULsolution for much of this!In the 1930s, FDR set up many work programs, where millions ofpeople earned money (from the government) for manual labor,in building the road system of the country and other infrastructuresystems.Leaders seem to start becoming aware of how terrible the infrastructureof the US has become, because very little funding has been allocatedfor repairs for many years. So there is definitely a NEEDfor massive work on the infrastructure in the US.It will be interesting to see IF the government chooses to approachthis as they traditionally have, of HIRING giant contractors todo the repairs, ASSUMING those contractors would hire huge numbersof workers to do the work. This happens to be an extremely inefficientapproach, I believe. An obvious example was when President Bushgave $100 billion (of our taxpayer money) to a handful of very largecontractors (who also happened to be good friends of his!) and whereit was found by Reporters later that only about $1 billion of actualwork had gotten done. The other $99 billion sort of disappearedinside those giant corporations! Is THAT what they are going to doon a much larger scale this time?It seems that the approach that FDR used in the 1930s was far wiser.The government DIRECTLY offered to hire millions of manual laborers,at modest pay rates, and those jobs were all rapidly filled. Thosemillions of workers did not have much Prosperity right then, but atleast they had consistent income so that their families were ableto eat.I am mentioning this here for a reason! Around 1990, I had inventedand (nearly) fully Designed an impressive NEW transportation systemfor the US. The transportation would NOT require any fossil fuelsto be burned, a wonderful side benefit! Automobiles and (most) truckswould be replaced by a system where people and products traveled at200 mph instead of the 55 mph on highways, with NO traffic jams or anyother delays. Better yet, the system is so efficient that thefees for traveling from Chicago to New York should be around $5 (one way),less than 1/20 of the cost of an airplane trip (which would actuallyinvolve about the same total amount of travel time!)When you have been at drive-through banks, you have seen the pneumatictubes and canisters which transfer papers and money very rapidlyinto and out of the bank. In the late 1980s, I discovered a waywhere a large version of that concept could transport people andproducts in very large canisters (which I called pods), AND thatit was possible to use a well-known Bernoulli Effect of Physicsto enable the pods to essentially FLY inside of a system of fixedtubes. This results in very little friction, and extremely efficientoperation. FAR better than the average 21% overall efficiency ofmodern cars!HERE is where the SOLUTION arrives!First, such a National system would require many MILLIONS ofpods to be manufactured, either to transport products or to transportpeople. General Motors, Ford and Chrysler happen to alreadyhave many very large factories, which could easily be convertedto making such pods rather than conventional vehicles. MILLIONSOF JOBS would be involved and VERY RELIABLE for many years!Second, the system of the tubes themselves are designed as beingEXISTING concrete culverts (of 5 foot diameter). My plan involvedinstalling THREE of these concrete tubes down the Median of eachInterstate highway (one each direction and the third to takethe traffic when either needed any repairs). Many other locationsof such tubes could be installed in other locations, as desired.MILLIONS OF CONSTRUCTION JOBS for several years would providereliable income for other Americans.Third, the infrastructure of the US would not just be REPAIRED,but REPLACED with an entire system that was GREEN (no fossil fuels),VERY FAST, and incredibly useful.Fourth, hundreds of thousands of computer and electronicsworkers would assemble the computer control system for this system.Each pod would have a bar-coding pattern on its side, and as itpassed scanners along the system, its exact position would alwaysbe known to the computer. When that pod needed to be divertedinto a different tube path to get to the desired destination,the system would use all that information to divert just thatone pod, leaving all the other pods ahead of it and behind iton their original path.I trust you see that quite a few million people would be earningat least moderate amounts of income, for a number of years whilethe American economic system gradually recovered from its problems.And at the end, we would wind up with a wonderful NEW transportationsystem that was far BETTER than anything existing today.Finally, NO NEW TECHNOLOGIES are necessary or involved! This couldbe started IMMEDIATELY!WITHOUT something like this, the US is certain to have severeeconomic and financial problems for quite a few years. It seemsextremely obvious to me that this concept SHOULD be at leastcarefully examined, and then probably IMMEDIATELY implemented!A web-site which provides a more extensive overview of this TRANSsystem is at 200 mph, Safe, Self-Driving Cars, Trucks, Economical - High Speed Rail, but better, TRANS Super-Efficient Transportation System.We also have a presentation at Wind-Powered Electricity for 1000 Homes Practical Large-Scale Wind-Generated Electricity (1 MegaWatt for 1000 houses)It does not seem appropriate here to discuss all the biochemistryinvolved in when bodyfat is used by the body, but suffice it to say thatthe complex lipid carbohydrate molecules are broken down intosmaller molecules (often acetyl coenzyme A) to be transported by the blood to(muscle) cells that need the energy they contain. There are a LOT ofchemical reactions which occur, many of which are in what is called theKreb's Cycle.The results of that Cycle are ATP molecules that are compact energycarriers, and also liquid water and dissolved carbon dioxide gas.These are now waste products of the body, and they are primarilytransported by the blood to the lungs, where the water can evaporateto make the outgoing breath get up to near 100% relative humidity(to be able to get rid of the greatest amount of water per breath)and also up to about 4.4% total concentration of carbon dioxide(limited by Dalton's Law of Partial pressures).By the way, you might see the connection here between when you doserious exercise and then have to breathe heavily for a while?The body has to have that heavy breathing to actually get RID of thecarbon dioxide it produced!In doing strenuous exercise, you DO use up some bodyfat molecules (but adisappointingly small amount of them. We will shortly see in the Technicalparagraph below that even when we exercise hard enough where our breath isTWICE normal, that only removes the carbon from around 1/1100 poundof bodyfat per minute. A full hour of such strenuous exercise and we canremove only around 1/20 pound of bodyfat!). Due to the requirementsof the exercise, the body naturally accesses some of your energysupplies, first, the sugars, which are most easily accessedfast, but then eventually the bodyfat stores. As those sugar or lipidmolecules are oxidized, carbon dioxide molecules are formed, which getcarried in the blood to the lungs and then exhaled with the next outgoingbreath. If you do TWICE as much exertion, then twice as muchof the lipid (bodyfat) molecules get oxidized, and twice as muchexhaled breath is needed to carry all that carbon away from the body!Now you know! (You also breathe more heavily to get more oxygenINTO the body, to be able to do all that oxidization of all thatcarbon into carbon dioxide. The body has an immense number ofunique chemical reactions, and we have greatly simplified thematter here!)This brief discussion is intended to show you that virtuallyALL the carbon that can leave your body must leave by yourexhaled breath, and that all the impressive claims of flashyadvertising which claim otherwise are simply not credible.IF some program causes you to BREATHE MORE HEAVILY, eitherdeeper breathing or faster breathing or both, THAT WILL directlyincrease your body's ability to get rid of undesired bodyfat.Such a program also needs to cause your Metabolism tospeed up to actually process/oxidize some bodyfat and make the carbondioxide available to the lungs.So the next time you see any of those ads on TV or elsewhere,THINK about whether they are describing any credible way whereyour breathing is increased. If not, there is no realisticreason to spend money to buy what they are promoting!On a more technical level, each INCOMING breath draws inair which is at the natural 0.039% of carbon dioxide, and eachoutgoing breath contains around a maximum of 4.4% of carbon dioxide.When sitting, we breathe around 12 times per minute and each normalbreath is around 0.5 liter of air. This all means that in eachminute of normal breathing, we CAN exhale around 0.26 liter of carbondioxide. The actual exhaled air is not always saturatedwith carbon dioxide but it is usually close.This means that each minute, we each (normally) exhale around 0.0405 gramof carbon dioxide, or around 1/1000 of a pound. (In an entireyear of normal breathing, we each exhale around 500 pounds ofcarbon dioxide!) In each minute, this includes around 1/3500 pound(or 0.11 gram) of actual carbon atoms. They could have come fromnormal foods or from stored bodyfat. If they had come from normal foodmolecules, that represents around 1/1400 pound (0.3 gram) of food whichwould disappear during that minute (of normal breathing).At 2200 Calories per pound of normal food, that is around 1.6 Caloriesof food per minute gets used up. If they had instead come from lipidbodyfat molecules, (a far more compact source of energy) that wouldrepresent around 1/2200 pound (0.2 gram) of bodyfat which would disappearduring that minute (of normal breathing). This ONLY occurs when the personhas not recently eaten enough food to provide the energy needed forall bodily activities, where stored energy needs to be used up. At 3500Calories per pound of bodyfat, that again means that around 1.6 Caloriesworth of energy would be provided, this time from bodyfat, every minute.Since a day includes 1440 minutes, either case here accounts for the 2,200Calories of energy that our metabolism needs to use up every day to keep usalive. Also, 1.6 Calories per minute times 60 minutes is around 100 Caloriesper hour of sedentary activity, which also agrees with the ASHRAEfigures for heat given off by a human body.This then confirms that each minute of regular breathing necessarilyrequires the exhaling of the carbon atoms from whatever food or bodyfatmaterials were consumed during that minute. That process of exhaling isessentially the ONLY process the body has of removing carbon from itself!In a bizarre Physicist's-view of this matter, I tend to wonder ifsomeone could somehow slightly extra-ventilate for an extendedtime, and whether that might result in some bodyfat loss WITHOUTeven having to work out? Strange, huh? I wonder if the brain wouldDECIDE to increase its Basal Metabolism, just because it now could. Andwhether anyone could be trained to learn to keep up the (10%) faster ordeeper breathing on a regular basis is not known. Sounds like something aResearch Lab should do a Study on! Since we know that we breathearound 12 times each minute, and thereby exhale the carbon atoms fromall the day's pound of eaten food, the idea of training a brain-bodyto increase that breathing rate to 13 times per minute seems reasonable.No one would even notice this slight change, and we know that thehuman body can be trained in thousands of ways. The point would be thatinstead of exhaling the carbon from 16 ounces of eaten food (as calculatedhere and in the Bodyfat, Weight Loss, the Physics of Body Weight Controlpresentation, that minor change would enable the body to get ridof the carbon from an additional 1.3 ounces of food materials, each day.If done for an entire year, that would possibly represent an additionalconsumption of over 30 pounds of bodyfat! Interesting!Physicists always try to see reasons for failure insuch hypotheses. In this case, if the body was actually notdoing any extra work, maybe the brain would see no reason toinitiate additional Metabolic activity. Human and animalpatterns suggest that no wasteful decisions like that are made,in order to maintain maximum survival capability for some futureemergency. So even if the breathing was slightly increased,it might be that the CONCENTRATION of carbondioxide in the exhaled breath might simply become reduced!Another Physicist's aspect of this, which seems far more interesting,is the question of whether overweight people might breathe moreshallowly than other people. I have not locatedany research that has ever been done on this subject. Wouldn't it be sortof funny of the entire obesity problem might be eased or even solvedby simply teaching overweight people to breathe slightly more deeply?I have no idea whether that would actually be of value or not, butit certainly seems to be worthy of serious scientific investigation!We have a presentation at Bodyfat, Weight Loss, the Physics of Body Weight ControlSeveral of the automotive-related presentations in this Domain includethe complete analysis of calculating the Aerodynamic Drag of anyvehicle and also the Tire Drag. It is not that difficult but we aregoing to leave out the details here. The details and calculations arein the specific pages about those subjects. Suffice it to say that anextremely aerodynamic sports car might have an Aerodynamic Dragof 100 pounds at 60 mph speed (which is essentially used up inpushing the air out of the way of the vehicle, and then in turbulenceas that air again filled the space where the vehicle had just passedthrough) which has the effectof transferring that energy to the air and thereby very slightlyheating it up! Similarly, it is easy to see that around 30 poundsof Tire Drag would exist. This energy mostly gets used up in flexingthe sidewalls of the tires every time they rotate, which causes thetires to get too hot to touch after an extended highway drive.Add the two to get the total vehicle Drag, in this case 130 pounds.For comparison, a C-4 Corvette, a rather aerodynamic car, has anaerodynamic drag of about 117 pounds and a tire drag of about 48pounds at 60 mph, for a total vehicle Drag of 165 pounds. So thenumbers we are using are very optimistic!By multiplying that 130 pounds total Drag by the vehicle velocity(88 feet/second, which is what 60 mph is), we get 11,440 lb-ft/sec. This canbe converted into other forms, such as 20.8 horsepower or 15.5 kilowatts.IF WE ASSUME THE VEHICLE AND EVERYTHING ELSE IS ABSOLUTELY PERFECTLYEFFICIENT we would then see that a one-hour, 40 mph, drive would use up15.5 kWh of power. So say that it was a battery-powered, electric motorvehicle. Once the batteries had used up the necessary 15.5 kWh ofelectricity, it would have to be replaced by re-charging the batteries.It is clear that we would need just over 9 hours of charging at themaximum 15 amperes that a standard home 110 volt electrical outletcould provide (9h * 15a * 110v = 14.9 kWh) or that a standard heavy-dutyextension cord could carry. NINE HOURS!To drive ONE hour, NINE hours of charging would be required, simply bythe basic Laws of science regarding Conservation of Energy!But MOST promotional literature for electric vehicles talks abouttwo-hour or three-hour recharge times, and they nearly always makesure to mention that a standard outlet and a standard heavy-duty extensioncord could be used! Do you see where their statements are attempting toviolate very basic laws of science?What they are usually doing is applying the common aspects of trickeryused in most modern advertising. A woodstove might be advertised as able to heat your entire home and also able to hold afire for 20 hours. . Each statement is potentially true, and theyprobably have tested evidence that each is NOT a lie so they do not getsued! But their advertising LEADS READERS TO THINK THAT BOTH ARETRUE AT THE SAME TIME, which turns out to simply be impossible! It COULD befired hard to produce enough heat for a small house, but then the woodgets used up fast and is gone in an hour. But if it is used to onlyheat one small room on a mild day, yes, it might hold a fire for 20 hours.In the case of electric vehicles, a common statement is that it can bere-charged in just two hours. Yes, that might be true if you had onlygone to the grocery store! And they make SEPARATE claims regardinghigh speed or long driving range. If I was forced to have to make sucha statement, I would probably arrange for a vehicle to travel at ONEmph! At that speed, the aerodynamic Drag is extremely low, and eventhe Tire Drag is lower, especially if I filled them with 90 poundsof air pressure! Extremely little electricity would get usedup in going that mile in that hour! Say a (private) Test Track wasset up to allow this vehicle to constantly circle a track. In a MONTHthat vehicle would have traveled around 720 miles, and the batteriesSTILL probably would not actually yet need to be re-charged. Sucha test, with some Stamp of Approval from some Independent Observer, would beable to actually claim that the vehicle had gone 720 miles and more beforeneeding to be re-charged. The manufacturer would then feel free tobrag about a 720-mile range.It would technically not be a lie, but no one would ever ride in avehicle that only traveled at 1/3 walking speed! But it certainlycould be done as just described, and that manufacturer would certainlypromote the daylights out of such a statement, knowing that it would sellmassive numbers of their vehicles. Of course, once people actuallyBOUGHT the vehicles and they all found that it could not even goan hour, 60 miles, at highway speed, people would know they had beendeceived. But exactly what could they do about it? The manufacturerwould have an Attested confirmation that their vehicle had traveled720 miles without needing a re-charge. Would any Judge find themguilty of any crime? I don't see how. And THEY know that!The point here is that modern promotional and advertising executivesfeel that there are NO rules regarding ethics or principles or moralsregarding getting their advertising commissions! They are willing tosay absolutely anything. If a manufacturer had also been deceitfulto have done silly Test Runs as I just described, there is virtually nolimit to what they might feel free to claim.Regarding many claims, remembering that this is a technology thatis still being born, it certainly seems that claims are made thatactually only apply to ONE PART of the complete system. I have seenstatements where a manufacturer announces 98% efficiency of the electricmotor. That might technically be a true statement, but any realSYSTEM requires wires and controls and batteries and chargers and muchmore, all of which degrade any possible claims regarding (overall)efficiency. I remember seeing, in the 1970s, advertising of avery poorly efficient fireplace which claimed 98% combustionefficiency . That statement was actually true, but irrelevant!Their heat transfer efficiency was horrendous, around 20%, so the bestany owner could ever actually see was just under 20% (the product of thetwo efficiencies.) No one stopped that company from claiming that becauseit was actually true. But they quickly angered so many buyers thatword got out about their ethics and they soon disappeared!.We have a presentation at Electric Cars, Hybrid Cars, the Physics.There are occasional news reports about some new PV technology thatallegedly has 30% efficiency. A Reporter listens to a CompanySpokesperson say that over 100 watts of sunlight power arrivesin every square foot (true, at noon, on a perfectly sunny day, ifthe collecting panel is aimed exactly at the Sun). The Spokespersonthen ASSUMES that the customer will buy the state-of-the-air technologywhich IS 30% efficient, and PREDICTS that 32 square feet of such PV panels(the size of a sheet of plywood or wall paneling) COULD therefore capture aspectacular amount of electricity (110w/sf * 32sf * 30% = 1050 Wattsof electricity! And the villagers rejoice at this amazing news!But that Spokesperson left out a LOT of important facts! Such as thatthe technology mentioned is still astoundingly expensive and hard toproduce, currently costing maybe $100,000 per square foot! Such as that mostclimates have clouds, and that the Sun is NOT always in the ideallocation, and that the PV panels are NOT always aimed exactly at the Sun!The Spokesperson did not actually lie, but was DECEPTIVE in many ways!The REALITY is that PV panels that most people can afford to buy areof a technology called Cadmium Sulfide, which happens to have atomicproperties where they are around 7% efficient. That a climate like Chicagohas a lot of clouds, and that an annual cloudiness factor is oftendescribed as around 65% (or sky clearness of around 35%, or sometimesdescribed as 34%). That a FIXED POSITION PV panel (facingsouth, at some angle upward) has geometric disadvantages when the Sunis in the eastern or western sky.So a REALISTIC EXPECTATION of that 32 square feet of PV panels is morelikely to be (110 w/sf * 32 sf * 7% * (100% - 65%) * 0.4 = a trulyconsistent and reliable supply of only about 35 Wattsof electricity!This is EXTREMELY different from what the Spokesperson tried to leadpotential buyers to believe! It would be GREAT if we could expect that areaof PV panels to produce 3400 Watts or 1050 Watts, but the reality is thatit would likely produce an AVERAGE of only 35 Watts instead. Grantedthat there WILL be days which are cloud free and at noon on such aday, briefly, as much as 220 Watts of electricity might be produced. But foran installation in that region of normal cloudiness, a 12 hour period ofsunlight might therefore be expected to produce a total averageof about 420 Watt-hours per day. Noting that you now pay maybe 15 centsper kiloWatt-hour (including Delivery costs and taxes), this is a benefit ofaround 7 cents of electricity produced for you! A solid $26 of FREEelectricity for you! This is due to you having spent between $3200 and$4800 to install the PV panels and the associated electronics and batteries.What a deal! In maybe 150 years, you will have gotten enough electricityto equal what you paid for the equipment (assuming that nothing needsany repairs during that 150 years).The manufacturers and salespeople and spokespeople for PV devicesknow that they could never actually admit that, or no one wouldever buy the products they are trying to sell!So the public is permitted and encouraged to have a totally wrong,sugar-plum-type view of what magic that PVs can do for them! Someone isallowed to come to assume that a few square feet of PV panels will providethem with a consistent and reliable 1050 Watts all day every day, and sothey believe that they will be able to fully operate their entirehousehold on such a wonderful supply of electricity. But then oncethey spend all the many thousand dollars to buy the equipment and thento have it all installed, THEN they discover that they ACTUALLY canonly RELIABLY count on an average of around 35 Watts instead. That isNOT even enough to light a single 100 Watt light bulb!Yes, after an entire day of collecting sunlight, such a setup CANcollect a total of around 400 Watt-hours of electricity, but then afterthat electricity is put INTO batteries and then later taken backOUT of the batteries, you can count on actually having around 300 Whof USABLE electricity from that entire day. You could light thatone light bulb for about three hours. Is THAT worth spendingmany thousands of dollars for? IF people know the actual facts,it seems unlikely that many people would think so.I realize that it does not seem like it from these comments, but IVERY STRONGLY ENCOURAGE EXPERIMENTING in Photovoltaics and otheralternative energy methods. As long as a customer approaches thematter as an EXPERIMENT and an ADVENTURE, fine. What I rebel to isthe fact that few customers are remotely told the truth, in orderto encourage them to have those sugar-plum-dreams of all theamazing benefits they will receive. If based on HONEST facts and HONESTinformation, I'm in! But if everything is based on deception anddistortion and misleading customers, NO, NO, NO!This whole realm is another example where ADVERTISERS promotePEAK RATINGS for their products, the absolute maximum that theyhad ever been able to get their products to produce in a testlaboratory, under absolutely perfect conditions,while USERS later discover that such numbers arenearly always useless and irrelevant, as they use such productsin REAL environments! Many of the energy-related presentations inthis Domain are intended to help the public learn what the actualfacts are and the reality is! Where they might then listen to thespectacular claims of advertising, and be in a position to then beable to ASK INFORMED QUESTIONS! Yes, yes, I realize thatthe numbers you just cited are possible with this product, but thatwas in a laboratory under perfect conditions. I do not have suchideal conditions, so I want to know what I will be likely tosee in MY application. I want to know an AVERAGE PERFORMANCEthat I can expect for a day or a week or a month or a year.Can I get that in writing??? Salespeople have never had to deal with such tough questions, becausethe public has never been informed enough to be able to ask them!You know the horror stories of Used Car Dealers! An unsuspecting customerwanders in and expects to hear TRUTH about a vehicle, but the Dealerknows that the Customer will have to sign a Disclaimer that prominentlystates AS IS, so the Dealer knows he is free to say essentiallyanything he thinks this customer might swallow!Similarly, Reporters have never known enough background informationto ask such tough questions either, so news reports have ALWAYS onlyshown people being allowed to talk about the IDEAL operation of theproduct which has gotten them on TV or in the newspaper! Such Reporterinterviews are ALWAYS with either a Representative of the Companytrying to sell the products or with Customers that have glee andenthusiasm of Christmas morning regarding the presents Santabrought. We feel that an interview with that kid in April or Maymight be a more realistic assessment of that toy or bike!We have a presentation at Solar Cells, Photovoltaic Cells, PV, Electricity from Sunlight.A REALLY interesting but strange idea has occurred to me! And thisfigures to either be totally worthless or worth many billions of dollars!This is VAGUELY related to the HeatGreen concept!There are TWO ways that organic material can decompose. One is if thereis minimal oxygen around, which turns out to be the usual case insidethe stomachs of cows and humans and other mammals, which is calledANAEROBIC DIGESTION. It uses a type of bacteria which are calledANAEROBIC BACTERIA. Anaerobic digestion is NOT very efficient! Amongother things, the chemical composition does not completely occur andthere is considerable METHANE GAS which is generated. All the jokesabout cows and flatulence in people are due to this. (Did you knowthat virtually ALL people are flatulent around TWENTY TIMES every day?)Anaerobic bacteria also cannot digest some organic materials, whichwe call FIBER, which then necessarily pass right through us (and cows).The other method is FAR more efficient, and it is called AEROBICDIGESTION. It uses a different type of bacteria, which are FAR FASTERand more effective in digesting virtually all organic materials.More importantly, those aerobic bacteria can nearly completely digestALL foods! NO methane gas is generated, just carbon dioxide (whichhas no smell!) And nearly all the food eaten gets digested, whichprovides more energy for the cow or person and leaves less waste materialto dispose of!I designed the HG concept to use AEROBIC bacteria, because they are somuch (1) more efficient; (2) faster; and (3) able to decompose far moreorganic materials; than ANAEROBIC bacteria can do. The anaerobic are worsein all those ways, The bacteria in your intestine or that of a coware bacteria that can survive and operate in an anaerobic environment.Anaerobic bacteria also tend to form METHANE gas (CH4)(which you call flatulence) and that anaerobic digestion leaves a lot ofunprocessed material (which you call manure). In tremendous contrast,aerobic digestion generally results entirely in producing CO2and H2O. This is FAR more efficient digestion, of being ableto get SEVERAL TIMES AS MUCH ENERGY BENEFIT for the body, if and whenaerobic digestion might be regularly done.In 2008, I had extended that aerobic/anaerobic thought about potentialexperiments to create super-human athletes by either slidingtwo air hoses down the esophagus to the stomach, or doingan operation to insert such hoses through the abdomen.Here was my thinking at the time: If one of those hoses had an airpump and filter, and the other hose was there to release usedgases , then the stomach and intestine would have a constant supplyof FAR MORE oxygen in them than is normally the case. And then, likein the HG, it should then only take a few hours before AEROBIC bacteriastart digesting the food contents.(1) digestion would probably then be FAR faster.(2) digestion should then include many things that we cannot now digest, such as fibre or roughage or even cut lawn grass (which we humans are incapable of digesting and it goes straight through us!), meaning MORE energy capture from the food eaten.(3) and digestion should then be so complete that we would NOT needto pass gas twenty times every day (the experimental averageof humans getting rid of the methane that we create). It seems likelythat the amount of manure might also greatly decrease, for having hadfar more of the materials having been fully digested.At the time, I was only thinking in terms of pro athletes but I never liked the idea as being somewhat like the illegal drugsthat many star athletes use to get an unfair advantage.So what is the NEW insight? Say that an Animal Husbandry Researcherwould install the pair of air tubes and a small air compressor INTO A COW?The result SHOULD be that the cow's metabolism should greatlyincrease, maybe double or triple normal.A MILK COW might then PRODUCE double or triple the milk per day!And beef cattle might grow two to three times faster, WITHOUT havingto add all the nasty chemicals in their feed!This then MIGHT enormously increase the US milk and beef supplies,possibly without the cows consuming any additional feed! It wouldbe ENTIRELY due to their having become far more EFFICIENT at digestingfood, by aerobic rather than the current normal anaerobic processes!There are many unknown variables! For one thing, cows happen tohave a multiple chamber stomach, which enables them to alreadydigest grass and roughage and fiber. Would there be any effect, goodor bad, to be pumping in extra air into those stomachs?I admit that I have doubts! It might not work at all, or it mighthave detrimental side effects. Specifically, the stomach might startto operate at far higher temperatures than has always naturallybeen the case. The bacteria that now digest our food for us and forcows operate at around 99 F temperature. I am speculating abouta far higher performance bacteria taking over. Many are known tothrive best when the temperature is over 125 F. Would thatkill the cow? I do not know and only an experiment could find that out.But for a Research Program to invest a few hundred dollars in ONE COW,and then letting it re-join its cow-friends out in a meadowto watch IF it ate more or less or different stuff, and to constantlymonitor body temperature and respiration rates,it seems like a worthwhile expense.You might be amused at WHY this dawned on me now! I have alwaysbeen amazed since I first discovered the research on humans, about ten yearsago, that we all pass gas around 20 times every single day.And there are all the jokes about cows and methane gas. It dawnedon me that IF I converted cows from anaerobic to aerobic,then they should no longer be producing methane gas. Or nearly asmany cow patties! I was thinking about whether THAT might be aworthwhile goal, when I realized the increased milk production and increased beef production consequences which shouldalso occur!There has never been any actual evidence of this idea. When the BASISof this concept is examined, it was ENTIRELY due to scientistsnot having any valid explanation for the way our Milky WayGalaxy rotates. Hundreds of years ago, a scientist named Keplerhad discovered some formulas that describe the gravitationalbehavior of the planets in our Solar System. Later, Isaac Newtonproved that Kepler's formulas were actually only approximate, and thatthey were pretty accurate in the Solar System BECAUSE nearly all themass in the Solar System is inside the Sun at its very center.And yet, the Physics community chose to try to apply Kepler'sLaws to the Galaxy, where the mass is known to be broadly distributedover its entire size! And then when the Galaxy did not rotateas they insisted it should (per Kepler), they started dreaming updozens and dozens of really silly ideas that each claimed wouldfully explain everything!Some have claimed that spiral galaxies are NOT spiral at all,but only APPEAR to be spiral due to effects of (speculated, unseenand unproven) gravity waves passing through the galaxy to causegravitational shock waves, which allegedly cause localizedstar burst patterns where new stars get formed. They seem to overlookthe fact that NO shock wave from ANY direction could cause SPIRALPATTERNS of star bursts! IF there were such a phenomenon, it wouldcertainly be seen as PLANAR sheets of bright new stars, which wouldgradually pass through that region!But most other Physicists seem to insist that the Galaxy rotation thatthey cannot explain is due to massive clumps of invisible materialin the Galaxy. IF such an explanation were valid, the DISTRIBUTION ofwhere that invisible mass would have to be would be truly bizarre!AND VERY UNSTABLE! But more than that, IF there were such invisiblemasses in the Galaxy, they would also attract OTHER parts of the Galaxywhich the proponents ignore! Such concepts are so amazingly sillythat it is hard to believe that ANY actual Physicist would evenconsider it worth thought! But THIS is what NEARLY ALL modernAstrophysicists now believe! At different times, they have called theinvisible material Missing Mass, Neutrinos, Exotic Matter, Dark Matter, andother things. But NONE of them can be arranged in any actual pattern wherethey would have the gravitational effects that are claimed for them, and NONEof them would be remotely stable even if they could momentarily exist.I feel that a far more simple and traditional explanation explains thesematters far better. NO weird and speculative assumptions are necessaryat all! Just SIMPLE gravitation that Newton calculated for us hundredsof years ago, BUT examined for a DISTRIBUTED MASS. Duh!Galaxy Spiral Arms Stability and DynamicsThis is a concept that is so deeply ingrained in modern society thateven little kids refer to them all the time! It is hard to see howand why they became such a cornerstone of modern Astrophysics!Around 1912, Albert Einstein derived some very complicated equationsas part of his General Relativity Theory. Around 1916, anotherPhysicist named Schwarzschild derived a solution to part of them.In his result, his equations acted strangely where in somevery specific locations, the math denominator dropped to zero!This meant that the number itself would become infinity.This became known as a singularity. Neither Einstein nor Schwarzschildhad any idea of what such a mathematical singularity might actuallymean in the real universe. But around 1960, some Physicists choseto entirely ignore the real nature of actual material (atoms) and insteadconsider everything to be describable by mathematics. This assumptionpermitted them to make a rather strange assumption! The first part of itwas reasonably credible, where a white dwarf star developed such extremehigh density that the atoms of the star (separate protons in the nuclei andelectrons revolving around them) being gravitationally jammed togetherinto everything become neutrons (because neutrons are known to besimply the coupling of positively charged protons and negatively chargedelectrons, and some extra Binding Energy. THIS then was a hypothesisthat there must be NEUTRON STARS, of even smaller diameters, objectswhich have the mass of an entire star but all of which is packed intoa space that may only be a few miles in diameter.Since Neutron stars are not charged electrically, they would notaffect any objects passing near them, except by gravitation. And theyare (probably) not hot enough to give off any radiation, so detectingNeutron Stars has been an extremely hard task. The only realpossibilities found have been in binary star systems, where thelarger star that IS giving off light is seen to be apparently orbitingwith an unseen companion object of great mass.Well, the part that seems outrageous to me is that someone ASSUMEDthat if gravitation can be so strong as to force an electron INSIDEthe nucleus of an atom to create a neutron, then even greater gravitation(due to even higher density) would cause TWO neutrons to get embeddedwithin each other. This would then create a new object that was thesize of a neutron, but with TWICE the mass of a normal neutron.Well, IF that assumption is accepted as credible, then it is easy tosee that the new double-neutron would have TWICE the gravitationalattraction to a neighbor neutron, and therefore it would certainlysuck that one into the object. We would then have an object which stillhad the size of a normal neutron, but now with THREE TIMES the mass!And this would obviously mean that it would even more quickly suckin a fourth neutron, then a fifth, and so on.This rather weak line of reasoning continues on ad infinitatum.There would allegedly never be any limit, and this object would foreverkeep absorbing more neutrons (and other objects) into that still tinyspace of the size of one neutron. For a few years in the 1960s,Physicists would say that this object would be the size of a neutronbut with the mass of our Sun or a thousand or a million Suns.Eventually, that sort of statement stopped being said. I think itwas due to the speakers realizing how ridiculous it sounds!In any case, THAT is still the case, the entire reasoning of whata Black Hole would be. But it really could only have gotten to bethat popular a concept by two conditions: (1) that no Physicist seemsto have ever carefully examined the physical reality of what is describedabove; and (2) that no Physicist seems to have examined that the ENTIREbasis for this very speculative concept was the SINGLE solution bySchwarzschild of Einstein's General Relativity equations around 90 yearsago! And yet it is ABSOLUTELY ACCEPTED WITHOUT ANY QUESTION OR DOUBTAT ALL!This is another bit of lore which somehow arose from the Physicscommunity. Many modern Physicists passionately defend thatstory, and they actually must, as several entire fields of modernAstroPhysics are based entirely on the assumption that the TwinsParadox is valid. It is not!The very popular Twins Paradox is absolutely untrue and impossible,and that is actually for really obvious reasons!Einstein had died a few years before the Twins Paradox was firstpresented. If he had still been alive, he would certainly haveimmediately pointed out a major error in it! His Relativity wasentirely based on the concept that the Universe has to seem logicalfor every viewer in every situation. The Twins Paradox definitelydoes not comply with that! It ONLY considers the appearance FROMTHE EARTH, which makes it immediately invalid regarding Relativity!The premise is based on a TRUE situation that for a NON-ACCELERATINGsituation, a moving target must always appear to be aging moreslowly than the observer senses. This is a special case of Relativitycalled Special Relativity, which only applies for non-acceleratingsituations.The error in the Twins Paradox is really obvious if one considersONLY the perspective of the person in the spacecraft! HE sensesno speed at all. But he sees the Earth seem to be shooting awayat very high velocity! Logically, he must then see life on Earthpassing MORE SLOWLY than he personally experiences. This is anunavoidable statement. However, the Earth observers feel that THEYare motionless and that he is rapidly moving away from them. So THEY TOOsee this Time Dilation effect, where they see HIM appear to be agingmore slowly than they are aging! Both viewers see the other asaging more slowly than he ages! I realize this sounds impossible,but the very basis of Relativity insists on that fact. There IS anexplanation, and it is totally logical, and even mathematicallysupported. It is a little complicated, but it is certainly the truth,and the Twins Paradox is not true and even impossible!We have a presentation at Twins Paradox of Relativity Is Absolutely Wrong.(Several web-pages have been composed on this subject in theAdvanced Physics listings)Beginning in the 1930s, it was ASSUMED that a peculiar factorin the experimental data of atomic nuclei could not be logicallyexplained! And so it was referred to as a Defect to the allegedlypure logic of Quantum Dynamics. But that Defect can bevery precisely presented by a rather simple mathematical formula.It DOES include a very peculiar characteristic that a scientistnamed Moseley discovered around 1913 (and which is now calledMoseley's Law), but THAT is one of the most interesting aspectsof it all. There seems like a valid possibility that an entirelynew law of science may exist!A full presentation is provided at Square of Electrical Charge - A New Basic Law of Science A Totally New Basic Law, the Square of Electrical Charge, of Science? Moseley's Law ExplanationA very careful and thorough analysis of the highly respectedNIST data regarding atomic isotopes has resulted in somesurprising conclusions! Examination of same-atomic-weightfamilies of atomic isotopes provides impressive evidence thatthe neutrons that we all learned about as school childrenprobably can NOT actually exist inside any atomic nuclei!(They exist as SEPARATE protons and electrons instead.)A full presentation is provided at Nuclear Physics - Statistical Analysis of Isotope Masses. Nuclear Structure. (research 1996-2003, published Nov 2003)Several web-pages discuss electron orbits in atoms, including:Atomic Physics - NIST Atomic Ionization Data Patterns, Nuclear Physics - Logical Inconsistencies,and others (linked below in the Advanced Physics links).As it happens, the binding energy for an electron that is in a largeorbit, or a planet that is in a large orbit, is LESS (when compared toa situation of infinite distance where the binding energy is zero)than for one in a smaller orbit. In fact, in both the case of anelectrostatic orbit of an electron and a gravitational orbit of a planet,the inverse square law applies, meaning that FOUR TIMES as much bindingenergy (has to) exists for an electron or planet in an orbit of halfthe radius.The result of this is that electrons which have been strongly ionized,to have MORE energy, are necessarily in SMALLER orbits, where theelectrostatic attraction for is stronger. This is exactly OPPOSITEof what is the popular ASSUMPTION by Physicists and the Public!Consider an auditorium which is 200 feet by 100 feet, and thereforeseats about 3,000 people (at the US legal 7 square feet per person).Give it a fairly high ceiling at 20 feet. We therefore have 400,000cubic feet of air inside the room. Normal air is now around 400 ppmvof carbon dioxide, so there is about 158 cubic feet of actual carbondioxide in the room to start with.We have 3,000 people in the room listening to the lecture. Theyeach breathe about 12 times every minute, and each breath is about0.5 liters of exhaled air. So, every minute, they exhale about3,000 * 0.5 * 12 or 18,000 liters of breathes, which is about510 cubic feet of breaths. Because of somethingcalled Dalton's Law of Partial Pressures, that exhaled breath air can onlybe about 4.4% carbon dioxide, so each minute adds about 22 cubic feetmore of exhaled carbon dioxide into the auditorium. Over a boringthree-hour lecture, 180 minutes, that is about 4,100 cubic feet ofadditional carbon dioxide in the room, just because of all those peoplebreathing!If the building had been absolutely airtight, our quantity ofcarbon dioxide in the room would have risen from 156 cubic feet upto more than 4,200 cubic feet, an increase by a factor of about27 times! This would increase the amount of carbon dioxide inthe auditorium from the original 400 ppmv up to over 10,600 ppmv(parts per million by volume). A concentration of 10,000 ppmv which Imentioned in the text is more common than you might think!Very likely to be true, EXCEPT not with the extreme precisionthat some modern people attribute to them. The Earth has many slow-actingmechanical effects occurring to it, such as Plate Tectonics whichconstantly but very slowly has the North Pole move as compared tothe visible surface of the planet. This causes a very slow change regardingthe observed rotational axis, and so precise orientations ofstone monuments regarding an exact location of where sunrise and sunsetoccur changes. Only by a fraction of a degree, but that is not incompliance with some modern comments that ancient stone monumentswere built with a level of precision of modern technology. Other similarcomments claim that stone surfaces were (somehow) ground soperfectly that giant slabs of rock fit together with a precision thatmodern technology can achieve, no. The Earth is subject to manyhundreds of other slow-acting mechanical effects, such as MutualPlanetary Perturbations and various wobbling effects due to mechanicalfacts such as the region of the Pacific Ocean being less massive than the(somewhat opposite) continents of Europe and Africa. There are manyother such effects which can slightly change orientations overa 5,000 year interval!The Egyptian Pyramids as Astronomical Observatories of 2500 BCVery likely to be true, EXCEPT not with the extreme precisionthat some modern people attribute to them.

There are manyother such effects which can slightly change orientations overa 5,000 year interval!A totally stupid idea. The very term seems to contradict itself!This strange idea was dreamed up ENTIRELY to try to explain a DIFFERENTspeculative idea, that the Universe is now wildly expanding.The existence of ANY sort of Energy implicitly implies thatany changes or any perception of changes, will create Radiationof some sort to maintain Conservation of Energy. Accepted thatsuch created Radiation might be unfamiliar to us, but it still hasto exist AT SOME FREQUENCY and WAVELENGTH. Meaning that it CANNOT be dark .In order to accept this idea, it is necessary to entirely abandonall trust in many long trusted Laws of science, such as theConservation of Energy, Conservation of Momentum, Conservation ofMass, Relativity, and many others.Among the rampant application of unsupportable assumptions, arecent addition is a claim that gravity is no longer really importantand that some ASSUMED new idea is the overwhelming presence in theUniverse. Recent claims are that the vast majority of the entireUniverse is made of things that we have never been away of and cannever be aware of! There are Physicists who are now announcing that75% of the entire Universe is made of Dark Energy and another 20%is made of Dark Matter, claiming that the entire Universe we haveany way of knowing about is only 5% of all existence! This bizarre ideaarose based on some observations of some objectsin the Universe which appear to be immensely far away from us.It is not possible for us to see anything more than a snapshot of extremely distant objects in space, a single momentary view. Weare unable to see any variations in brightness level or any othercharacteristics that might be useful in determining the size orbrightness of really distant objects. Even the DISTANCE of suchobjects is a quantity which requires several ASSUMPTIONS.But apparently in the competition in modern Physics to make themost outrageous statements, the tiniest bit of POTENTIAL evidencehas had many layers of assumptions loaded onto it, to result in aclaim that all known laws of science are to be discarded! The claimis that those extremely distant objects are moving away from us atspeeds which are greater for objects which are farther away from us.Now, if that was a VALID statement, it would be amazing. But thatstatement was only dreamed up after about a half dozen ASSUMPTIONSwere applied to observed data. Since modern Physics seems to no longerrequire any PROOF of any statements made, everyone seems to feelfree to dream up any assumptions they wish, to then announcestatements as though they are actual science! No they aren't! Theyare results of speculative imaginations of people who want to findnew assumptions to apply!The claim referred to here is totally dependent on us knowing theaccurate distance from us to each extremely distant object. But suchdistances cannot be measured! They have to be ESTIMATED due to theapplication of several assumptions. We have NO good way of determiningreliably accurate distance information for such objects which appear tobe at extreme distances from us. Much of that is based on spectrallines being shifted to the red (called the Red Shift) which we ASSUMEonly occurs due to the speed the object is moving away from us.There is actually no good reason that has to be true! There might beTWENTY different physical processes which exist which cause Red Shifts,but which we are still totally oblivious about!Interestingly, the main basis for the distance we think distantobjects are from us is ALSO based on the spectral Red Shift. When both thenumerator and denominator of a fraction are based on the same number,the value of the fraction becomes irrelevant, and that is essentiallythe situation here. Another huge assumption which has been universallymade is the idea that ALL objects in the Universe which LOOK to be of thesame type, are actually absolutely IDENTICAL! Schoolchildren arenever allowed to make such poor assumptions, but modern Physicists feelfree to do so! Based on these assumptions and on several more, it hasnow been decided that if two ABSOLUTELY IDENTICAL OBJECTS are seen, butthey appear to be of different brightness, then one is farther away fromus as calculated by that difference of brightness. Unbelievable!In any case, these assorted assumptions have resulted in the recentoutrageous announcement that the Universe is in runaway expansion,essentially dismissing all the known laws of science. As a result,the Physicists then decided they could explain this new (alleged)finding, by speculating an even more outrageous idea, that thereis an unseen and undetected thing they call Dark Energy. Allegedly,this latest speculation is supposed to be the opposite of energy andgravitation, where it allegedly then would explain a runaway expansionof the Universe! It is sad that no one paused to try to confirm ordeny whether the alleged evidence of a runaway expansion is evencredible or valid, before they jumped to make even more outrageousannouncements!I tend to wonder if modern Physicists think their future Grants ofmoney for research will be based on how outrageous their statementsare! Science and Physics seems to have gotten lost along the way.This idea was first thought up around the 1950s, in order to try toprovide an explanation for a long-standing mystery of mankind.Unfortunately, the people who thought this up had to abandon acceptanceof MOST of the accepted logic, ideas and Laws of science! They nowsimply claim that conditions at the time of the Big Bang were soextreme that our known Laws of science simply did not apply. That thenfreed them up to SPECULATE WILDLY, since they were free to claim thatscientific knowledge simply is irrelevant! That essentiallydiscards ALL of three thousand years of scientific study!I suppose there is no way to prove that such irrational ideas might havebeen true, as their claim that scientific logic and rules do not andcannot apply! So I suppose they are safe from ever being proven wrong!But around 1960, I came up with a slightly different concept whichDOES comply with known Laws of science and also all reasonable logic!Origin of the Universe A different and LOGICAL explanation for the beginning of the Universe which is then apparently STILL ongoing!The same people who had dreamed up the Big Bang as the origin of theUniverse soon also thought up the idea of Black Holes. The basisfor this claim is amazingly thin ! One of the equations thatAlbert Einstein derived in trying to understand General Relativitywas especially hard to solve. It remained unsolved until amathematician/Physicist named Schwarzschild found a solution for thatequation in 1916. His solution was troublesome in that there were certain(rare) situations where the denominator became exactly zero, whichmeant that the value of his solution would have to become infinite.Since both Einstein and Schwarzschild are universally considered tobe absolutely infallible, no one doubted Schwarzschild's solution orhis consequence of having a result which could apparently violate ALLof known science! But it took into the 1960s before one of those scientistswho seem to have loved to speculate came up with the idea of that mathematical singularity of Schwarzschild being actual reality,and the term Black Hole was dreamed up. (Neither Einstein norSchwarzschild ever claimed existence of any physical singularities.)There WERE certainly very compact stars known by the 1960s,including White Dwarfs and Brown Dwarfs. In a nearly hilariousspeculation, one of that group of speculative thinkers decided thatSchwarzschild's mathematical singularity permitted them to claim thatit was possible for a proton to (somehow) jam itself intothe space used by a different proton! Their claim was that gravitationinside a really compact white dwarf caused this to happen.They neglected a really obvious FACT! BOTH the attractive force of agravitational field AND the repulsive force of electrostatic repulsionbetween positively-charged protons act according to the inverse squaredependence. In other words, if two protons got twice as close,yes, the gravitational attraction would increase by a factor offour, but what they overlooked was that the electrostatic repulsion ALSOincreased by a factor of four. Becoming very close wouldNOT cause super-strong attraction, which might (allegedly) becomeso strong that two protons might exist in the space of one!However, IF they had been correct, then their following logic wouldhave worked! The new super-proton would gravitationallyattract other protons TWICE as strongly as the gravitation thatwould have3 jammed the first two protons together! (Of course,they also overlooked that the doubled electrical charge of thesuper-proton would also have REPELLED the third proton twiceas strongly!) So they merrily extended this (wrong) idea intoessentially becoming a gravitational vacuum cleaner which wouldsuck up every proton it encountered. And they seem to have overlookedsome other logical problems in eventually having a Black Hole which had the entire mass of a star, all tightly packed inside thetiny space of a single atom! But they always slid by such details as I asked at least a hundred Physicists about this during myPhysics Education and Physics career, and was never even givenANY response at all! It is apparently an irrelevant question tothem, people who seem to believe that all the known Laws ofscience can be ignored whenever they become inconvenient!Like many of the other wild speculations of modern Physics, the ideaof Black Holes is probably immune from serious attack. Since theyfeel that they can ignore any and all Laws of Physics if they become inconvenient , no logical argument could ever be posited againstthat idea! And the fact that the Public has found excitement andsexiness in a concept such as Black Holes, we are destined to havethat concept forever! Even though it is nearly certain NOT to bevalid!This is another idea in Physics which was speculated to be true,even though it totally violated many well-established scientific Laws!The way the idea arose is humorously curious! It has been known forabout 80 years that our Milky Way Galaxy is somewhat like a flattenedpinwheel and it rotates about every 200 million years. But Physicistsinsisted on ASSUMING that it must behave according to Kepler'sLaws, which were proven to be pretty accurate regarding the rotationof the Solar System. They overlooked a huge detail! Newton explainedthat Kepler's Laws are nearly accurate due to the fact that virtuallyall the mass of the Solar System is in the Sun, at the very center.The Galaxy is not remotely like that! Its mass is DISTRIBUTED throughoutits entire dimensions. Newton clearly showed that Kepler's Lawssimply cannot apply for such a situation! Yet, Physicists overlookthat little detail and they insist that Kepler's Laws must apply inthe Galaxy. THIS creates an entirely new problem, where the SpiralArms of our Galaxy would then NOT be able to keep up with the rotationof the Core. So, based on this WRONG assumption regarding Kepler'sLaws, all sorts of very silly ideas have been thought up, and thenimmediately accepted without question, in order to try to explain extra mass that they know would have to be necessary if Kepler'sLaws were to apply.These silly ideas include there being extra mass as DARK MATTERor MISSING MATTER to try to provide the alleged explanation;the claim that our Galaxy is nearly entirely invisible as 90%Neutrinos; the claim that GRAVITY WAVES pass through our Galaxyand create shock waves which cause starburst formations in theshape of Spiral Arms and even more silly claims. No one ever triesto apply any actual LOGIC to such claims, so they each get immediatelyaccepted by many Physicists. It is sad!I believe there is a FAR more logical explanation, which does not NEEDsilly ideas like Missing Mass or Dark Matter or Neutrinos or GravityWaves. SIMPLE Newtonian Gravitation explains why our Galaxy can anddoes rotate as it does, and it explains how and why our Galaxy canbe stable in maintaining its form.

They then ASSUMED that ALLCepheid Variables which flash at a specific rate MUST have an exactspecific mass. It is still assumed that that assumption is atleast moderately true. Many modern Physicist ASSUME that it isEXACTLY true! In any case, during the 1990s, a new assumption was made.If it is actually correct, then several peculiar new theories might havevalidity. The assumption has to do with a NEED to create a much larger NEWmeasurement ruler. It seems REALLY speculative to me! There aresome very rare events in distant space which are called Type 1-ASupernova. Only a couple of them have EVER been seen in or nearour Milky Way Galaxy. But it is ASSUMED that the amount of radiationgiven off during the Type 1-A Supernova explosion is a FIXED amount.Evidence of possible Type 1-A Supernovae have (rarely) been detected in VERYdistant galaxies. It has been ASSUMED that the DISTANCE of thosegalaxies MUST BE defined due to the ASSUMED DISTANCE of the Type1-A Supernova (ASSUMING THAT ALL OF THESE RARE OBJECTS MUST BEabsolutely identical. There seems NO actual evidence which would suggestthat this speculative assumption is true!)But apparently in the competition in modern Physics to make themost outrageous statements, the tiniest bit of POTENTIAL evidencehas had many layers of assumptions loaded onto it, to result in aclaim that all known laws of science are to be discarded!

So, based on this WRONG assumption regarding Kepler'sLaws, all sorts of very silly ideas have been thought up, and thenimmediately accepted without question, in order to try to explain extra mass that they know would have to be necessary if Kepler'sLaws were to apply.There is even a more basic bad assumption regarding this subject!Around 1929, a really smart Physicist named Wolfgang Pauli made anunbelievable wrong assumption in speculating that there MUST BE anew tiny particle which soon became called the neutrino. Pauliwas nearly certainly totally wrong in that speculation, because hemade a very obvious mathematical mistake regarding mixing up scalarand vector quantities in math.Neutrinos Do Not ExistThese silly ideas include there being extra mass as DARK MATTERor MISSING MATTER to try to provide the alleged explanation;the claim that our Galaxy is nearly entirely invisible as 90%Neutrinos; the claim that GRAVITY WAVES pass through our Galaxyand create shock waves which cause starburst formations in theshape of Spiral Arms and even more silly claims. No one ever triesto apply any actual LOGIC to such claims, so they each get immediatelyaccepted by many Physicists.

SIMPLE Newtonian Gravitation explains why our Galaxy can anddoes rotate as it does, and it explains how and why our Galaxy canbe stable in maintaining its form. See Galaxy Spiral ArmsThe existence of FREE neutrons was established in the late 1920s.As Atomic Weights , that is, the mass of atomic nuclei were determinedin coming years, it was found that most atomic nuclei had substantiallymore mass than that of the specific number of (electrically charged)protons and electrons that were necessary for the characteristicsof each nucleus and element. It was ASSUMED that the nuclei alsocontained specific numbers of neutrons, in order to account for theneeded extra mass. Physics has accepted that assumption ever sincethen. Careful examination of modern precise values of atomicmasses seems to have now proven that assumption to have beenincorrect. Instead of neutrons existing inside atomic nuclei,there appear instead to be SEPARATE protons and electrons inside thenuclei. This difference seems to have extremely little change inthe characteristics of atomic nuclei, but it eliminates manysmall errors in exact values of atomic mass.It also eliminates the need for massive numbers of neutrinos toneed to be created and absorbed by nuclear processes, and it seemsto also eliminate the need for a peculiar idea. During the 1930s,it was realized that mutual electrostatic repulsion of the closely-packedprotons inside each nucleus by Coulomb's Law of electrostatics, wouldseem to immediately cause nearly all atomic nuclei to fly apart andcease to exist. Since it was known that most atomic nuclei areextremely stable, the Physicists of the 1930s ASSUMED that therewas an extra force which existed , which became called the StrongNuclear Force. The Strong was ASSUMED to be tremendously powerfulat small distances, in order to overcome the mutual repulsive forcesbetween the protons, to keep atomic nuclei from flying apart. TheStrong was ASSUMED to have a distance dependence of either aninverse-third-power or inverse-fifth-power effect, in order for it tohave the needed tremendous strength at tiny distances while not having anydetectable effects at greater (atomic) distances. But NO experiment hasever detected any actual evidence of any Strong Nuclear Force. Thereare only IMPLIED bits of evidence, all of which require variousassumptions of their own.In the late 1990s, I began to statistically examine the highlyrespected NIST data regarding precise experimentally measured massesof atomic nuclei, with the single intention of trying to determinewhether the Strong was actually an inverse-third-power or inverse-fifth-powereffect. I had been troubled by noting that NO ONE ever seemed to tryto actually specify which was true, regarding such a basic characteristicof such an important nuclear force!Like in many other scientific investigations, my statistical analysisof the data surprised me in apparently showing that NEITHER was true,and that, IF protons and electrons were moving around separatelywithin each atomic nucleus, the presence of the negatively chargedelectrons provides ATTRACTIVE electrostatic effects on the protonsto keep them from flying out of the nucleus. So the ASSUMED StrongNuclear Force appears to not even be necessary, or desirable, inmaintaining the stability of most atomic nuclei. In fact, simplegeometric arrangements of the protons and electrons within atomicnuclei seem to provide wonderfully obvious explanations for manynuclear behaviors, without having to assume any Strong Nuclear Force,or the existence of Pions within nuclei, or neutrinos.My statistical analysis of the NIST data has now convinced me thatthere probably is NOT any Strong Nuclear Force, and likely no pionsor neutrinos INSIDE atomic nuclei. Yes, pions and neutrinos existOUTSIDE of atomic nuclei, but much of the basic reasoning ofNuclear Physics seems now to be entirely different than previouslyASSUMED.See Nuclear Physics - Statistical Analysis of Isotope Masses. Statistical Analysis of NIST data on Nuclear masses.End of footnote 60BranesIn recent decades, Physics seems to have abandoned any associationwith actual reality, and instead come to be based entirely ontrying to solve immensely complex mathematical equations. Unfortunately,the mathematicians/physicists who try to solve such equations tendto make their own ASSUMPTIONS in order to get solutions. This situationhas resulted in Physicists feeling free to make totally outrageousassumptions, and then solving some equations, and no one questions thevalidity of their claims! This has resulted in modern Physics havingcome to be centered on an assortment of silly ideas. The ideas aresafe from ever being disproven because they claim to describe objectsand processes which are so incredibly tiny that no (future) experimentcould ever detect any of them! So String Theory, Super-Strings, Branes,and an endless assortment of speculations have been dreamed up byvarious Physicists in recent decades. Since no possible experimentcould ever detect such tiny objects or processes, they are each freeto give as many lectures as they wish, with no possible challengeto their claims.But all those speculative ideas were created as consequences ofassumptions that were speculative on their own, and much of theseareas of modern Physics are totally based on other earlier assumptionswhich ARE definitely wrong! No actual reality is even consideredany more, and Physicists simply argue over different sets of mathematicalequations! And they get away with it because there is no one otherthan Physicists who can have any clue what they are trying to talkabout! So when some Physicist announces that there are 10 spatialdimensions rather than the three we know about, no one questions sucha statement! When another announces that there are 26 spatial dimensions,again, there is no challenge! This silliness is due to so many layersof wild and speculative assumptions being stacked on other unsupportedassumptions that reality has lost the field! It seems that ratherthan Physicists needing to PROVE EVERY STATEMENT with brutal logic,now Physics has devolved into admiring the one who makes themost outrageous claims! VERY disappointing to an actual Physicist!Once the Twins Paradox was totally accepted, then the Public startedextending that idea to Time Travel . Countless Science-Fiction storieshave been published which are based on this idea. But since the TwinsParadox is absolutely wrong, having been based on really terriblelogic, and the two Twins would meet and see that they were both EXACTLYthe same age, the balloon of the idea of Time Travel pops!There ARE some very peculiar effects of Special Relativity and GeneralRelativity regarding some PERCEPTIONS of time, but the REALITY neverinvolves actual gain or loss of time, so NO Time Travel is possible!Some noted Physicists, including Kip Thorne, then dreamed up theidea of Wormholes, which would allegedly be time conduits between twodistant locations in the Universe. It is merely a variant on theTime Travel idea, which is absolutely and totally untrue and impossible.This is beyond debate, once the error in the Twins Paradox is seen andunderstood.Once the Twins Paradox was totally accepted, then the Public startedextending that idea to Time Travel .

The Twins Paradox is a story about identical twinbrothers, one of whom stays on Earth while the other gets into aspacecraft and zooms off into space at incredible speed, and thenwhen he later zooms back, the claim is that the elderly brother whoremained on Earth would meet a very young identical twin when hereturned. This error arose due to the Physicists totally ignoringone viewpoint and exclusively describing everything as it would(allegedly) appear from Earth! My web-page on this matter atTwins Paradox of Relativity Is Absolutely Wrong. The errors and the explanation should besimple enough that even schoolkids should be able to see what the correctexplanation is, and it does NOT involve gaining or losing years of age!
