Before I address the case of the Norwegian engineer, Rolf Wideröe, I would like to say something else. By the way, Mr. Twigsnapper, I had exactly the same thoughts when reading the paragraph you quoted!
Please read carefully, because there might be a German-connection. It may seem out of line here, but don't just brush it off, without reading it.

Dear Mr. Twigsnapper,
I was quite surprised to see that you were contininously evading the subject of Robert Beckwith and James Corum.
There are several possible explanations for that:
a.) A very subtly designed disinformation-campaign, where the written material by Beckwith and Corum contain some genuine data, but a lot of misleading things. You though are of the opinion that the loss outweighs the gain and that it would be very dangerous to go down this path, because more yarn would be spun.
b.) You don't want to tempt Mr. Schatzkin leave the beaten track and neglect his central task - Dr. Brown.
c.) The connections hinted at in the above mentioned documents by Beckwith and Corum are of such impact that you think it is too early to bring them to light or address them clearly.
The problem of the Beckwith-report is the Marconi referrence + the light bulb and all the "teleportation mode" stuff. But if this is such a disinformation, then why was it not more widely publicized? It has been molding away like some fine French cheese on the website of a Florida tech company. Corum received more exposure.
Beckwith wrote another interesting paper: "A Force Model of the Universe and the role of Neutrinos".
In chapter 80 the following is being said:
"Chapter 80:
"Dr. Brown and Josephine were living on Catalina (again) in 1978 when Dr. Brown started talking about moving to Hawaii. He already had one of his sidereal radiation detectors installed in an the lava tubes of an extinct volcano on the island of Oahu; He also had a working relationship with the University of Hawaii, which had invited him to participate part in something called “DUMAND.” The Deep Underwater Muon and Neutrino Detection project had been formed to construct an apparatus in thirteen thousand feet of water on the floor of the ocean near the Big Island of Hawaii for the purpose of detecting neutrinos— the most elusive of all subatomic particles."
You yourself made a referrence to project DUMAND ((

"Neenie my dear, you have made my day.
And I thought of something that you might be interested in since you said that you visited Dr. Brown in Coronado. About the time that he was there the Navy had a big highfalootin project on the go they called "Project Dumand". I am sure that Paul has run across that and I hope I am not speaking out of turn regarding Dr. Browns story but this really has more to do with the Navy and your fish.
They spent millions building what they called " an array" of .... lets call them ... little pea- like sensors ..... which were to be submerged off of Hawaii so that "neutrinos" could be somehow registered. It cost the taxpayers millions of dollars and all kinds of time. And do you know one of the reasons that they had to discontinue the program? The fish kept eating the sensors!
Any other stories out there regarding Project DUMAND? Nobody was laughing then...... but its worth a good belly laugh now."
Again this might be a false lead, because you say: "Nobody was laughing then...... but its worth a good belly laugh now."
Neutrinos are very interesting and they attracted my attention, because a possible correlation to quantum tunneling and the uncle of Jacques Bergier.
From the Wikipedia (
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neutrino)
"Neutrinos are elementary particles that travel close to the speed of light, lack an electric charge, are able to pass through ordinary matter almost undisturbed and are thus extremely difficult to detect.
The neutrino was first postulated in December 1930 by Wolfgang Pauli to preserve conservation of energy, conservation of momentum, and conservation of angular momentum in beta decay, the decay of a neutron into a proton and an electron and an antineutrino. However, the term chosen by Pauli for that then hypothetical particle was a "neutron". Subsequently, James Chadwick discovered the much more massive particle we know today as the neutron, and used the term originally coined by Pauli to name the particle that Chadwick had discovered. Pauli theorized that an undetected particle was carrying away the observed difference between the energy, momentum, and angular momentum of the initial and final particles."
And then let us look at quantum tunneling. From the Wikipedia (
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quantum_tunneling):
"In quantum mechanics, quantum tunneling is a micro and nanoscopic phenomenon in which a particle violates the principles of classical mechanics by penetrating or passing through a potential barrier or impedance higher than the kinetic energy of the particle.[1] A barrier, in terms of quantum tunnelling, may be a form of energy state analogous to a "hill" or incline in classical mechanics, which classically suggests that passage through or over such a barrier would be impossible without sufficient energy.
By 1928, George Gamow had solved the theory of the alpha decay of a nucleus via tunneling. Classically, the particle is confined to the nucleus because of the high energy requirement to escape the very strong potential. Under this system, it takes an enormous amount of energy to pull apart the nucleus. In quantum mechanics, however, there is a probability the particle can tunnel through the potential and escape. Gamow solved a model potential for the nucleus and derived a relationship between the half-life of the particle and the energy of the emission."
And now the correlations:
a.) Neutrinos were discovered in connection with the so-called beta decay. George Gamow solved the theory of alpha decay of a nucleus via quantum tunneling. SUMMARY: Alpha decay - Beta decay of a nuclerus. The one was discovered in 1928, the other in 1930.
b.) "Neutrinos are elementary particles that travel close to the speed of light, lack an electric charge, are able to pass through ordinary matter almost undisturbed and are thus extremely difficult to detect."

We have the "Leitmotiv" of passing or penetrating in both instances.
c.) Wolfgang Ernst Pauli (April 25, 1900 – December 15, 1958) was an Austrian theoretical physicist noted for his work on spin theory, and for the discovery of the exclusion principle underpinning the structure of matter and the whole of chemistry. (Wikipedia)
Pauli was famous for his work on spin theory. And here comes the connection to Walter Gerlach - spin, magnetism, resonance, gravity, nuclear forces.
Further, Georges Gamow is related to Jacques Bergier (he was probably an excellent chemist). Bergier was a close friend of Dr. Sarbacher. I would really like to know more about Dr. Sarbacher's work! The references to him are very sketchy i. e. chapter 56: "Sarbacher, an eminent electronic scientist and nuclear physicist… he was a Navy consultant in electronics and development, and then he went to Georgia Tech in Atlanta to become, at thirty eight, dean of the graduate school."
You also mentioned Wolfgang Pauli and an entry from his diary on the board here, but I cannot find the post just right now. If you can please be so kind and help me.
Let me continue with the "Leitmotiv" of penetration and passing through via neutrinos and quantum tunneling.
Why are Hawaii and Dr. Brown so interesting? The DUMAND project and neutrinos + sidereal radiation – Dr. Brown had a sidereal radiation detector in one of the volcanos on Oahu!
Patrick Quillin made one very interesting observation regarding sidereal radiation "
viewtopic.php?p=544&highlight=sidereal#544":
" One night after dinner, Doc said "would you like to see a speaker?" Sure. He brought out the strangest contraption that looked like a 2 foot squared box with a loose wire grid in the middle, then plugged it in to the stereo. It made a nice breeze as a fan and also provided exceptional sound as a speaker. Never saw anything like it in my life. That was when I began realizing that my Doc was no normal employer. Doc began speaking of sidereal radiation, some electro-magnetic beam that emanated from the center of the universe and could not be shielded by any material or thickness of mountain. Doc found that the sidereal radiation 'beat' cleanly as well on the surface of the earth as it did deep within a cave in Hawaii. Doc spent some time trying to figure out the meaning of sidereal radiation, including trying to plot major shifts in the stock market against the sidereal readings that he was constantly monitoring. Doc once told me that he thought the Egyptians built the pyramids because dragging large rocksslabs across the desert would lessen the gravity and weight of the rocks, which could then be lifted in to place on the pyramids by a few men."
Now if this isn't interesting! Again for your convenience: "Doc began speaking of sidereal radiation, some electro-magnetic beam that emanated from the center of the universe and could not be shielded by any material or thickness of mountain."
And the neutrinos:
"Neutrinos are elementary particles that travel close to the speed of light, lack an electric charge, are able to pass through ordinary matter almost undisturbed and are thus extremely difficult to detect."
And look what Robert Beckwith has to say in his paper "A Force Model of the Universe and the role of Neutrinos", chapter 3, p. 9:
"The neutrinos do not go straight through material but bounce around gathering information."
Do you now see it! The neutrinos don't just pass through – they also gather information about that which they penetrate!
Do you see the connection with sidereal radiation? And didn't somebody say that the communication-aspect of Dr. Brown's work was far more important than anyone thought?
What is the perfect communication device? That which can pick up signals of a ray or radiation that can pass through everything and carries the information of that which they pass through.
And doesn't sidereal radiation also have a gravitational and temporal aspect? Chapter 20:
"The article then addresses Brown’s continuing interest in the sort of fluctuations in the “cosmic force” his apparatus released, what he called “Sidereal Radiation,” and how he was using his invention to...
…measure changes in the gravitational field caused by the motion of the earth and the relationship to the earth of the sun, moon and planets.
Now we’re getting a hint of one of the themes that would preoccupy Townsend Brown for the rest of his life, his determination to find the source of these fluctuations and accurately measure their affect on the Earth’s gravitational field:
“The greatest distortion in the gravitational field… comes when the sun and moon is in the line of horizontal action of his gravitational cells — that is, at the time of the rising or setting sun or moon. The exception to this is when sun and moon are opposite and therefore neutralize each other in part. The maximum distortion… comes when the sun and moon rise or set together, thus acting in conjunction."
And what was Dr. Brown interested in during the last years of his life – chapter 80:
"His other continuing interest was the phenomenon he had first encountered in the 1920s, the mysterious fluctuations he called "Sidereal Radiation." He established a number of monitoring stations at a variety of locations around the world, including Hawaii and Mexico. Between these two pursuits -- sidereal radiation and petro-voltaics, it seems his travel never let up, despite his advancing years and declining health."
And with petro-voltaics we are again with Jacques Bergier and piezo-electrical effects. Have to do more research on this! Have to see more about how sidereal radiation, quantum tunneling, neutrinos, etc. are connected to Kozyrev and his theory!
Let me know your thoughts.
