That might be of interest. A friend of mine happened to have that book " Fistful of Kings" and so I have borrowed it. I haven't read the book yet so I don't know the context but this involved a meeting with the " Reverend and Broterton at an airport. Again the cane is noted. "Jo...

for most covert operations the object is to be totally commonplace. I think that was not the "agenda" here. Though I am like you, I haven't quite figured it yet. Could it be that this isn't "flash" as far as he is concerned but just a fact of life? How many people "travel&q...

So, Mikado, was this trip supposed to be jolting Linda's memory of her father? I suppose that could make some sense. My guess still remains that it isn't Linda's memory that needed to be jolted, but just that this sort of thing needed to filter out, and be known about, so there would be no doubting ...

It is totally absorbing. :) And totally baffling. I've never been a covert operative running around in Humvees and Helicopters (it was never covert), but for sending somebody on a little trip to Tennessee, this seems a bit excessive. Even if you have the resources, this seems really overboard. Maybe...

I strongly agree with Mikado. In the context as Morgan said, "Everyone has an agenda," it smacked of paranoia. The example Twigsnapper gave about the B-36 helps things not at all. The fellow had a hidden agenda. And an agenda for other people's lives. That's what grates against me, is the ...

If your summation of the situation is correct, and I seriously would like to know, and my little tongue in cheek above is in the correct field of play thennnnnnnn. ........aren't these the people that Ike warned about? Just being the devil here...and then maybe not. Mikado I think they are the same...

So its the same thing that toggles back and forth from state to state according to the C factor. So to itself its always the same "STUFF" ? There's no intermediate state? Does C have to be linear or are the spin vectors of particles pre existing velocities which may preload the toggle ? i...

<name withheld>, I don't know if I ever told you much about a Russian fellow named Podkletnov (Eugene or Evgeny). He was working in Finland at the University of Helsinki back in 1992 or so. He claimed they were doing experiments with rotating superconductors, and noticed cigarette smoke (you'd never...

Knowing that this isn't where everybody typically likes to have their physics debates, I'm going to chime in anyway. m=E/c^2 was how Einstein originally wrote it, I believe. It's completely equivalent to the popular version. Really, E=gamma*m*c^2, where gamma is 1/sqrt(1-v^2/c^2). But, when an objec...

First thing that came up was this Spanish artist who was a censor for the Inquisition, making sure all art was religiously correct. But this other fellow, http://www.mothersalert.org/pacheco.html is significantly more confirmed than some of these others. He was on 60 minutes in 1980, but apparently ...

What counts is getting to port, handing off this valuable cargo to others who can go forward and do some real good with it. Your glimpse is very accurate. twigsnapper By "others who can go forward and do some real good with it," do you have any people or groups specifically in mind? Or ju...

Don't expect me to make sense. I'm just standing here trying to figure which foot to start off with. grinder Either foot being equally unknown, does it matter? Whether or not there was a personal connection between Kozyrev and Brown, though I do believe you when you say there is, there is an obviou...

Seems to me this might have a connection with that fellow, Kozyrev, I believe it was. He supposedly had a special detector that still registered a signal on his telescope when the cover was closed, and the signal was much stronger when the telescope was pointed at the true (rather than apparent) pos...

I won't get into the body of it. Thats for others. Trickfox, you out there? Mikado? Andy? Radomir?MarkC? grinder? Victoria? Lindab? Gewis?grady? Everyone else! ( sorry if I have left your name out ...you are ALL so VERY important) You all have bee been such a fantastic help here.!.... but see now h...

Sorry. I'll try to move quicker. I'm a poor (and busy) student, and there wasn't so much as a spring break here. Vacuum tests with solid dielectric will be coming!
