Reading Carver Mead's latest paper of August this year ( "Propagation of pulsed light in an optical cavity in a gravitational field", https://authors.library.caltech.edu/records/rtkg1-zce31 ). It seems the experiment to test pulsed-wave vs continuous-wave laser beams was run, and (unsurpri...

Reading further in Mead & Cramer's "Symmetry, Transactions, and the Mechanism of Wave Function Collapse", I find this wonderful little anecdote on page 32: At the 5th Solvay Conference in 1927, Albert Einstein posed a riddle, sometimes called “Einstein’s Bubble Paradox”, to the assembl...

Carver Mead (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carver_Mead : born 1934, 90 this year, not dead yet, and still writing) is a pioneer of the 1980s silicon chip fabrication revolution (Very Large Scale Integration or VLSI), superconductors, and neural networks. He is a man who knows his electricity - parti...

wondering if everyone's hard work over the decades has merely amounted to a discounted Costco fan??? Well, remember, one of TTB's most notable 'camouflage' projects was... a FAN. So... no surprise here. And Townsend Brown since around 1975 has also developed a dedicated fandom , so that tracks. I'l...

Paul, your foundation and other work definitely sounds intriguing! Jan, on Arthur Compton's 1938 lecture: But why does he says that the "modern work in statistical flucutaions " is disturbing? By "disturbing" I think Compton just meant "unexpected, not predicted by theory&qu...

The Air Force Technical Command, at the Foreign Technology division of the Wright Patterson AFB collected an announcement of the Electric Current Jet Flame Generator in a 1960 bulletin of Soviet inventions. Oh, that's interesting! Looking at the announcement, it appears to be a MHD device like Kant...

Hi Thomas: Much to the delight of the right wing conspiracy theorists? As opposed to the left wing conspiracy theorists? Not sure what you mean by this. There certainly are left-wing conspiracy theorists (LaViolette himself might count as one) but I am not referring to them here. I grew up in the 19...

Exotic Vacuum Objects (EVOs) as first discovered by Ken Shoulders I feel like the word "discovered" is doing a lot of heavy lifting in that sentence, and that post. "Speculated" might be more accurate. I remember reading hyperventilating articles about EVOs as exotic world-endin...

Alfven, the Swedish electrical engineer who would go on to win the Nobel Prize for MHD, had long ago concluded that sidereal time variance would certainly modify the effect of a stream of particles arriving from a direction counter to to the rotation of a field. (my simplified interpretation, your ...

I am not saying there is a connection, but the Dr. Swann who partnered with Townsend in crafting the Franklin Institute's section of the Winterhaven proposal, was an Englishman. And that end of the proposed org chart is undeniably Brush and Franklin heavy. Of course, we now have reason to think tha...

Nate, I'll have whatever you're having! lol Heh. Yes, I was a little hyper, but honestly, it was just the top three hits on a Google search. I trimmed the "Gusto" one a bit. Those guys are really passionate about the Brush legacy! The proposal identifies Hancock Manufacturing as a develop...

I first started doing research on Mr. Brown in the early 1980's when I bought some infolios about his work from Rex Research. Hi Thomas! Very glad to hear from you. Can you remember what was in those 1980s Rex Research information folios? I ask because I too got into the Townsend Brown mystery in t...

By the time of this report, son Willoughby had become the head of the fundamental development group of North American Aviation (Northrop, today, parent corporation of the B-2 bomber). Young Cady would pass away of cancer, in Huntington Beach, the next year. That's interesting! I didn't know or had ...

I was/am more inclined to think 'the set' was some sort of communications device, perhaps using the 'gravitational communications' (i.e. instantaneous across infinite distances) referred to in chapter on The Vega Notes (i.e. Structure of Space). I've never quite understood all of this broad hinting...

What is math, anyway? Just another language, but with Set theory instead of the Alphabet? Why would it NOT be related to consciousness, especially given that language is the primary tool of physical sensation? Perhaps. I would say I am suspicious of math, particularly modern, complicated math, when...
