Directionality of wire

I feel kinda bad like I've been too hard on the guy. I honestly think he'd be a blast to hang out with. I'm sure I'll eventually read every word on his site. It's most definitely snake oil, but he really is an artist in how he sells it. I can see how some people would be pleased with his products. It's like one of his customers said after buying his Clever Little Clock, to paraphrase, "I don't know what to say -- I make fun of the things, but I bought another one."

Geoff is actually a magnanimous and beneficent soul. Not infrequently he suggests tweaks that would cost the user nothing, and that provide him with no monetary return. An example is the following excerpt from his post dated 9-7-2012 in this thread:
Taking all telephone books out of the house will usually be audible when you go back and listen to the system. Even if the telephone books are in other rooms of the house, they should be removed. The telephone book is perceived as an intruder by virtue of the fact that it is linked to a strong Field created by the tens or hundreds of thousands of identical telephone books. So, the link to that field can be eliminated by removing the telephone books from the house, making the house Safe from the telephone book "information field".

"Lead, follow or get out of the way."

You may call yourself a leader Geoff, but it’s of the electronically minded gullible, who believe in the same snake oil you peddle on your website. And that’s nothing to be proud of.

>>>>>Actually, Georgie Boy, if you brushed up on your reading comprehension a little bit you’d see I wasn’t actually calling myself a leader. I was calling you a follower. Unfortunately, you’re following the wrong sheep. Baaaa!

This all reminds me of something. Oh, I know what it is! It reminds of a den of Boy Scouts discovering Playboy for the first time. 😳

Most people here, especially the ones who seem angry and bothered--and get steamed up enough to comment... are seeming to analyze what Geoff is doing with 18th and 19th century Newtonian physics.

Start looking with not just selected bits of old and now discarded incomplete physics...but modern physics - the entire swath of published and peer reviewed 21st century physics.

Which will take some digging and some disposal of what are apparently strongly held bits of very incomplete data.

No one can do that for you, you have to do that for yourselves.

When I make such a post, I’m smacking a very insular hornet’s nest, but well.... think of it as a human kindness, not as some sort of crazy and misguided new age hippy trip. As that, a human kindness.. is actually the truth of the matter.

Some of you guys are lost in the past of the record of physics. By about one full century of data. Never mind what is happening right at the cutting edge of published works.

I’ve not the patience nor the time to teach or show that to the given derisive ’others’, and we know what comes next.

The demand for proof.... from those who will never look... nor read.... nor understand ----what is in the given published and peer reviewed cutting edge works. People in the physics dark ages, looking for dark ages proof, that fits their dark ages projections in physics.

I could bring mind and door opening proofs and scientific works, peer reviewed published works that make a total mockery of these 19th century positions.

But that would only invite more ridicule from what is, let face it ....a small component -a very small contingent- of the group who are reading this, and can actually post.

As they are not looking to find anything new, they are not looking to understand anything new, nor come to any new mental vistas. They are, as far as the written words they use are saying (overt words and their psychological undercurrent) ..they are looking for a strong re-entrenchment of their position in woefully incomplete 19th century Newtonian physics..and an utter rejection of anything which threatens that world view and the associated mental comfort zones.

No number of words or data (written by others, on forums) -delivered by others-, can fight or alter those positions. Part of what the human condition is, for some. They have to go out and find and explore it for themselves, and won’t. They bar the door --and fight it. Fight it, to the mental death, if need be.

As can be plainly seen, right here. How can one accept, look at, or try and understand... something they are actively doing their darnedest to kill and/or stick a mental sword through?

Thus, I bring no data, and I only correctly and properly say:

You go out and find it yourself, you go out and search for it yourself, and explore the data yourself. And if you are lucky, you will get past your own current restrictions and see the ever expanding world of human cognition and understanding of the universe. Instead of this violent and projected mental turtling we see here now.

These proofs, are actually fully gone over and reviewed by the US government branch called ’the us academy of sciences’ and these works, considered to be true and accurate, with an error potential of less than three billion to one, are certified as 100% real by the said branch of the government, who went over the scientific works with a fine toothed comb and a microscope. It took years. And the tests and data they certified as real? That took some +35 years to produce. Many hundreds of scientists involved, checking each other’s works, constantly.

In reality...the ’cutting edge’ of knowledge and data in this world...has passed by some of the more derisive here. The entire world is screaming about this point, science and knowledge at the cutting edge -is moving far too fast for the average person to grasp, and is well true...even for the highly educated. Ad it's not linear, this increase in connectivity and thus scientific and human knowledge works. Cern is a fart in a windstorm compared to the whole package.

Have fun in your now limited comforts.
