Re: Maurice Allais and the Anisotropy of Space

I don't know if Witten forgot Townsend's name in regards to the bismuth remark, or never knew it. He was a generation younger than Townsend, so he would have been a RIAS hiree, but not a top level insider/organizer. Also, though Witten identifies bismuth as the metal with the particular isotope, the...

Re: Maurice Allais and the Anisotropy of Space

Louis Witten's oral history is online, Nate. He gives a thought provoking account of his visit to "Bahnson's" lab. https://www.aip.org/history-programs/niels-bohr-library/oral-histories/36985 Re: electromer use...within a year or two of Townsend bringing his electromerters to the NRL, Ross...

Re: Townsend was hyping Sidereal Radiation in 1948

Nate, the man with Townsend certainly looks to be in his late twenties, so unless there were two J.F. Butterfields in LA who were close in age, he may be the same man as the older one in the photos. All I can see iis that he and the older gentleman both have long ears, but so do many other people. T...

Re:Putting the story together: Why CalTech

Because it is Nate's labor of live timeline that gives some structure to this story, and because he has been so willing to contribute his very insightful writings to exploring this part and other parts of Townsend's life, I have posted the story that goes with these events, Townsend Brown Goes to Ca...

Nate's Wonderful Timeline Annotated for 1905-1927

These are the easiest-to-track years of Townsend Brown's life, thanks to the copious newspaper material that was not available when this was first transcribed. Matters grow progressively more complex after this. My additions are in blue text.

Re: Elizabeth Rauscher Oral History

Nate, this make me think you might be interested in Chris Blesdoe's story. I don't know. It's hard to explain. But I can sense its outlines there, this thought-system, in many of the big ancient philosophies. It also feels like the sort of conceptual structure that humans would not naturally come up...

Re: Prescott and Williams and UFOs and Furriners in the Forest.

My belief that Townsend had some sort of connection with this Kingman event is based solely on my memory of seeing a letter written to Jo in this time frame. My speculations about what was happening continue to change. I see that Harry Drew has done much more research on this story since he first wr...
