  1. Dear Green Xenon: Mechanical trauma to the solar plexus could cause the diaphragm to convulse, resulting in very painful if temporary cessation of respiration. If massive mechanical shock is imparted to solar plexus, yes, it could - and does - result in death. Wish I could tell you more about this, but I'm sure of what I'm saying here as far as it goes. Former EMT here. Any kind of massive pain can cause a state of deep shock, the body responds by contracting all the blood vessels near the surface and other physiological changes to compensate, which can in themselves be fatal. Yes. Shock can kill. Try to keep patient warm, elevate legs when possible. Stop any bleeding if and when you can. In cases of blood loss and I.V. facilities are accessible, introduce saline solution to maintain blood pressure until transusable blood or plasma is available. Best regards. - Kai
  2. "Since the General Theory of Relativity implies the representation of physical reality by a continuous field, the concept of particles or material points cannot play a fundamental part. The particle can only appear as a limited region in space in which the field strength or the energy density is particularly high." - Albert Einstein, IDEAS & OPINIONS, p. 348 Having One's Tea While Spilling It Also, continued: 'Obviously the universe is not made up of a bunch of disturbed areas. Because, if it was, by now it would have *spread indefinitely.' - J.W.N Sullivan (THE LIMITATIONS OF SCIENCE) and G.P. Thompson (A *tensor equation - *4th coordinate; of time and motion - applicable where only three coordinates were previously perceived.) Note: the ‘obvious’ is not put into words here. The obvious, being that the physical - as well as spatial - universe is found to be *expanding. Whereas, that inevitably *descriptive word - expanding - is displaced with 'spread indefinitely'. "Physical objects are not in space, but these objects are spatially extended." - Einstein "There is no space empty of field." - Einstein "In his novel, THE SEARCH, C.P. Snow describes the reaction of a student in class on hearing the physics professor say he is not sure whether some of of the subject matter in the course is right. This indication of disagreement of those inside physics comes as a surprise to the student; he has heard of past scientific controversies, but the current science which he is studying seemed to lack them altogether, as if scientist-authorities backed it up by unanimous vote. 'Science', writes Snow, 'had seemed to be without people or contradictions.' "The knowledge that physics is not as unanimous or bloodless as it may appear from the outside came as a surprise to me also. I wanted to know more..." - Barbara Lovett Cline, THE MEN WHO MADE A NEW PHYSICS, Preface Speaking at the 2005 Solvay conference David Gross (Nobel laureate) said: "We are in a period of utter confusion...These equations tell us nothing about where space and time come from and describe nothing we would recognise. At best, string theory depicts the way particles might interact in a collection of hypothetical universes...we are missing something fundamental." Exerpts from The Structure of Scientific Revolutions, by Thomas S. Kuhn, from paragraph 1: "Research is therefore not about discovering the unknown, but rather a strenuous and devoted attempt to force nature into the conceptual boxes supplied by professional education". “Man began speculating about atoms long before science became an organized activity Even to the ancient Greeks it appeared sensible to assume that there might be some kind of ultimate building blocks of matter... “Then, many centuries later, the great Isaac Newton implied that matter was formed in ‘solid, massy, hard, impenetrable, moveable particles’ - in other words, the atom was something like a billiard ball. Newton’s idea (*of the described ‘particle’) was pure speculation.” - MATTER, p. 119, Life Science Library. The ‘billiard ball’ concept of ‘particle’ was more readily reinforced by direct, subjective experience, than was any objective concept of mysterious continuous forces generated by and emanating - action-at-a-distance across space - from discontinuous particles and combined systems of particles; to influence other particles and systems of particles. - KBR “Magnetism, gravity, and action at-a-distance have not lost an iota of their baffling mystery since Gilbert (before Newton 1642 - 1726)” - Arthur Koestler, THE SLEEPWALKERS. "We no longer think that physical action is explainable in terms of little hard balls which are the centers of all kinds of forces. A much more abstract kind of concept is demanded in which the particle is no longer something which can be considered in isolation, but rather as a part of an all embracing entity called a 'field'. In this development, Einstein's thought construction played a vital role..." - Ibid How I Became World's #1 Einstein Groupie by K. B. Robertson A Brief History of a Series of Discoveries In the experience of this author there are two histories of the evolution of physics. The objective history that was established by the men and women who contributed to it’s progressive evolution, and the subjective history of this author’s learning of that evolution and then recognizing and authenticating an unprecedented statement - previously proven but continuingly unrecognized on the foundations of physical science. Discovering that Newton’s gravity is Einstein’s 4-dimensional space time continuum did not happen in premeditation, or all at once, or in any given flash of insight, but rather through a process of learning, motivated by what at first was no more than mild curiosity. Speaking of retrieval, there is a print-painting of a terrier looking dog with a sailor boy on a box of Crackerjack, holding an inevitably smaller box of Crackerjack, upon which is printed another image of what appears to be the same dog beside another - looks like the same - sailor, only smaller; holding yet another box of Crackerjack; with what would seem has a printed painting of another dog beside another sailor holding a yet smaller box of Crackerjack and so on... It seemed to go on forever, if the pictures could somehow be made ever smaller and still exist, as the visibly descending and/or ascending sequence of images certainly suggests... Geometrically squared rectangular boxes of heirarchically parallel and orthogonal Crackerjack containers and icons, out of infinite smallness proceeding to infinite largeness. Who said the ever-smaller sequenced pictures - smaller or larger, past, present & future - had to ‘end’, ever? If the atoms of the universe of the past got ever smaller and the atoms of the universe of the present got ever larger and the painter or printer passed his job on from one generation to the next, where was the ‘end’ of the illustrated hierarchy of images - the multi-moment space-time ensemble of differently sized pictures of the same dog and sailor boy holding a box of Crackerjack with a picture of himself and his dog on it - in past smallness & future largeness? Einstein was caught up in a similar imbroglio, only it was in Switzerland, just northwest of where all this cartoon compounded dilemma was unfolding and back in the early 20th century. And then there is the story of the mathematicians who hacked out a formula that proved that bumblebees can't fly. Fortunately for all the flowers that are pollinated by bumblebees - they don't do math. The scientific status quo has an understandable resistance to any alternative interpretations of what is - as well as what is not - known. In the words of Galileo's proclamation against the inquisitional orders to disregard what was proven about the movement of the earth... "... still, it moves'. Say what you will mathematically of the 'flightless' bumblebee - like Albert 'The Axe' Einstein's double bit Lambda ( /\ ): 'Still, it flies'. http://www.toequest.com/forum/toe-theory-articles/2516-total-field-theory-reinstatement-cosmological-constant-steady-state-theories.html?ltr=T Epilogue This work is dedicated to all who may constructively benefit from, add to, or (inevitably) improve upon it. Given the previously unrecognized academic foundations upon which it is based, disqualification is unlikely. Whereas, such event will inevitably contribute all the more to an improved understanding of the Universe At Large. A host of distinguished readers of nine previous editions have variously volunteered that even in the questionable consideration that the central and unprecedented conclusions herein are proved dissolute, the presentation of the history and evolution of the paramount problems in theoretical physics today, and the perspectives of them as provided herein, is an educationally important redemption of itself. - K.

Same thing happened in a physics lesson - a picture of Newton gave a puzzled expression. Still wanted to know what gravity is, so I went outside and continued the quiz. Asked a mathematician and he took all day saying gravity is numbers. So I lit one up and, went into suspension, tintanambulating beyond the 3rd dimension. The answer appeared as a gentle kiss, so I wrote another poem and it goes like this... A Brief History of Rhyme - A Celebration of Space-Time Almalgamation Liberated From extended Fragmentation (The dreaded thread) Poetic science appliance. Einstein's presently abandoned Unified Field reinstated w'out mathematics. The joining of Field with Quantum Mechanics. The exclusion of politics from science. A scientific paradigm shift alliance. Scientific 'mainstream' panics at quantum mechanics Democritus foresaw the invisible atom, but since then his discovery is found with substratrum. From antiquity, and ubiquity the continuous wave was the rave. Faraday found the cathode ray. Thompson uncovered electrons one day. Rutherford saw protons in a different way. Understood Maxwell's waves beneath the celestial hood, discovered electromagnetic fields as no one thought he would. The wave emitting electron could not be subdivided - at first it was whispered, then openly confided. Yet along came smaller mysterious articles, of Max Planck’s curiously indivisible 'particles' : Transforming a known world of electrostatics into a truculent tangle of quantum mechanics. Conceptual doors were opened for the entrance of protons, but no comprehensive vacancy for the residential photons. Other atomic tenants varied in weight, height and disguise, but the photon is always the same null value and size. A deteriorating atom might change its balance or valence, while the unchanging photon showed no such talents. Vigils are kept to find it changing its station, while its stubborn identity confirms in black body radiation. At dollar conventions where no change is invited, twenty nickels sit down to an audience excited. The quantum takes for granted inclusion, while greenbacks resent the currency intrusion. To and from spherical shells the electron darts - while the unchanged quantum arrives before it departs. If you’re looking for a message in here, it’s of Max Planck’s quanta and Niels Bohr’s spheres. Invincible in principle, Newton’s Mechanics are sure as shooting, while quantum mechanics are robbing and lootin'. Evolutionary experiments are eclectic, but the final conclusions are photo-electric. As though these convulusions are not enough, reality panned out some other stuff. The only certain universal permanancy, is Einstein’s constant light-speed and Heisenberg’s indeterminacy. Einstein’s fort was special & general relativity, while his Nobel Prize was for photo-electricity. Uncle Albert having firstly proven to be right - ahead of Brownian motion and the speed of light. This century old issue of size is how Einstein won the Nobel Prize - how the peace loving master-blaster stayed alive, in the timely year of 1905. Anaxgoras of pre biblical days took big and little to greater heights and stays, he said "There’s always something larger than large, and always something smaller than small." Perhaps the smallest-large statement of all. May this admonition of illusion be this brief sonnet’s conclusion. The 20th century path has been rough - to the point of surrendering enough of this stuff. - K. B. Robertson, Copyright 1979 & 2009 All rights reserved.

  4. How I Became World's #1 Einstein Groupie by K. B. Robertson A Brief History of a Series of Discoveries In the experience of this author there are two histories of the evolution of physics. The objective history that was established by the men and women who contributed to it’s progressive evolution, and the subjective history of this author’s learning of that evolution and then recognizing and authenticating an unprecedented statement - previously proven but continuingly unrecognized on the foundations of physical science. Discovering that Newton’s gravity is Einstein’s 4-dimensional space time continuum did not happen in premeditation, or all at once, or in any given flash of insight, but rather through a process of learning, motivated by what at first was no more than mild curiosity. ‘What is gravity?’ I was fourteen years old and had no idea that, in pursuing the answer to this question, I was about to embark on what would become the main course in my life’s work. Confident that I could learn the answer in a fairly short period of time, through research of standard information sources. In referencing several encyclopedias and other resource materials I slowly became aware that there was no comprehensive answer to that question (‘What is gravity?’). There is voluminous and impressive information on the effects of gravity (‘the unidentified Force’ - ‘F’) - what it does... But the question of what gravity is - what causes it - remains a popularly pursued - until now, unresolved - mystery. Newton literally invented The Calculus, to enable him to measure acceleration, parabolic arcs and many other effects of gravity, but, there is only a gathering data base of speculations (some of which in the past 30 or so years have evolved into a trend of unscientific inquiry and unscientific representation) of it’s causal identity. The causal identity of gravity is no less mysterious now than it has been through the ages of scientific inquiry. My first discovery about gravity was that no one has ever known what it is; only what it does... That was of itself interesting, and in the words of Barbara Lovett Cline (THE MEN WHO MADE A NEW PHYSICS), ‘I wanted to know more.’ The recently learned fact that no one knows or has ever known what gravity is, allowed me to think that even an amateur such as myself might have as much business researching it as anyone else. Curiosity about gravity was further refurbished when I learned of Galileo’s experiments with descending objects, released from the same height at the same time - when he found the unexpected result that, regardless of the mass values (size, density, weight) of objects, they all descend at the same rate of acceleration and strike the ground, when dropped from the same height at the same time. Before Galileo’s findings, it had been presumed since Aristotle and before, that the heavier a given object, the faster it descends in free fall. Not true. The record already had some knowledge of Newton’s Laws of gravity, one of which states that the greater mass value - the heavier - a given object, the more gravitational impelling force (presumed to be a force of ‘attraction’ ; unidentified, but said ‘not’ to be ‘magnetism’ or ‘electricity’) it possesses. It follows by this law that when a small stone is dropped alongside of a boulder sized stone, the latter should fall faster and strike the ground sooner than the smaller stone (released from the same height at the same time - esp. in the absence of air resistance <a feather and a cannon ball, in the absence of air resistance, descend at exactly the same rate, measured to concurrence beyond a billionth of a second; in scientifically documented searches for the anticipated difference in descent rates - not finding it, down to and beyond the measure of a nanosecond>...). According to Newton’s law as applied to this consideration, there ‘should’ be a greater mutual attraction between the larger stone and the earth, than between the smaller stone and the earth, and therefore the larger - heavier - stone ‘should’ fall faster. It doesn’t. (The popular but incorrect ‘explanation’ that ‘negative inertial resistance’ inversely corresponds to the ‘pull’ of gravity and exactly cancels out what would otherwise be an increased descent rate for the heavier object, is well marked, by Einstein and many others, as an inadequate, false explanation.) That fact intrigued me and led me to pursue further studies. I was aware that much of Einstein’s work was about Newton’s gravity; did not pursue Newton’s or Einstein’s mathematical work on gravity because my knowledge of that subject (mathematics) was (and remains) extremely limited. At age seventeen I conjured up what seemed to be a radical and unlikely explanation for why all objects descend at the same rate of acceleration. It did explain why this happened, but the explanation required that the entire earth’s surface be constantly rising up, creating the illusion of falling objects; causing them to appear to fall: at the same rate of acceleration. In this apparently ‘unlikely’ scenario, the unexplained identical rates of descent for the test objects was ‘explained’, ‘because’ the earth’s surface was rising up and overtaking the apparently falling objects... I had no good reason at that time for attributing the required expansion to the earth. Had very limited knowledge (of what is scientifically known) of the ‘building blocks of the universe’ - electrons, neutrons and protons; that they are called ‘particles’, which are in fact unexpectedly found and consistently proved to be 'charges of electricity, without distinct surfaces.' Since the sub-atomic ‘electric charge’ has a mass value (opposes resistance to acceleration proportionate to its mass value <‘weight’>), and, demands three dimensions of space to its <perceived> finitely located self): it is called a ‘particle’; rigidly conceptualized as ‘billiard ball’ like, having a distinct surface, separating its perceived finite boundaries, making it ‘discontinuous’ - from the space surrounding it - like any and all other material entities; as they are colloquially experienced and consequently conceptualized. Refer: ‘particle theory’ (is not really a theory, but rather an ‘hypothesis’, since the so called particle has yet to be confirmed on the foundations of modern physical science...) Had only heard of the 4th Dimension as Einstein introduced and then others described it - had no knowledge of it. Did not know of or associate any of those realities with the absurd explanation I had for the descent of free falling objects. It was more a lark than a serious consideration: OBVIOUSLY THE EARTH IS NOT - AND ALL OTHER PHYSICAL ENTITIES IN THE UNIVERSE ARE NOT - EXPANDING. I had arrived at what I did not recognize then as being a historically crowded metaphorical precipice, and I had made the same rejection everyone else had, who had arrived there - unbeknownst to me at that time. There was a perfectly functional if metaphorical DaVinci donated hang-glider waiting for anyone who cared to fly with it (the elaborately proven, consistently rejected and denied fact that universal matter at large is a constantly expanding four dimensional field), and for quite some time I stood there at that crowded precipice, looking at the new fangled, completely untested solution, and then glanced down the cliff that everyone there had pulled up short on... I went about the objective of disproving this incredible (even ‘ridiculous’) idea that all of the material earth - and consequently, the thereby obliged physical universe of space and matter - was constantly expanding. I was sure it was wrong. Had to be wrong. I would not fly off that cliff, even though I knew, that new fangled thing just might after all fly. I didn’t ‘believe’ it (Yet). How, after all, for example, could something like this be ‘going on’, (the entire physical universe as well as the spaces between the ‘particles’, is constantly expanding, ever faster..). without it having been previously observed and proven - by people much more talented and skilled than myself? There is the apparently patent fact that anyone can see for themselves at any time and in any place, that the physical environment - everything - at issue here: (‘Obviously’)‘isn’t expanding’... ("Avoid the hazard of thinking you understand something, that you don’t really understand" - Robert Pursig, Paraphrased, ZEN & THE ART OF MOTORCYCLE MAINTENANCE.) Such misunderstandings result in ‘gridlock’, disallowing any possibility of resolution, since whatever the problem or misunderstanding may be, it is not recognized as such, and is therefore not dealt with. ‘Gridlock’. The ‘incredible’ premise (that all of physical reality is constantly expanding ever faster) did ‘solve’ the problem of the universal descent rate of all free falling objects. But it certainly appeared to present a lot more problems than it did solutions. The more Truly Yours circumspected the problem and the more widened the contingent issues became, the more I began to realize that for all of its ‘incredible’ contingencies, the idea that the entire physical - as well as spatial - universe was expanding, was supported - generously - on the foundations of contemporary and historical physics. But the glitch was: when the prevailing reality emerged in the experimental laboratory; often with mathematical confirmations, it seemed, I was learning, to be consistently rejected out of hand; always on the misguided (though certainly understandable) premise that ‘obviously, universal matter - every physical entity in your environment including yourself - is not in a perpetual state of constant expansion... ‘Anyone can see, after all, that no such expansion prevails.' However stubbornly it may appear, in however many differently proven ways, in the internationally recorded laboratory... I continued to refuse to test the new fangled (certified ‘untested’ and ‘disqualified’) thing-a-ma-jigee (with wings), and jump off the metaphorical precipice, and fly. Sure would look foolish going splash in the imagined, forgiving ocean down there and flightlessly swimming ashore. Of course it wouldn’t fly. If it was meant to fly, someone much more knowledgeable than myself, surely would have gotten off the ground with it by now... 'Obviously matter is not a constantly expanding field, because, if it was, by now everything would have spread out indefinitely... ' If everything in the physical universe is expanding , caused by the ever expanding neutrons, protons, electrons, mesons, charms, strangeness and quarks, etceteras (atomic and subatomic particles large and small): then I can fly. Dragging my obviously non aerodynamic caboose on the ground. Just wanted to make sure that I really couldn’t fly, so I delved further into the stubbornly ascending matter, as it were... (An airborne gliding swan - formerly an ugly duckling - dipped it’s wings over my head, approximately. That is to say, there were benevolent counter signs, discouraging abandonment of the ugly duckling and White Elephant apparent... I had already read that some mathematicians had 'proven', repeatedly and diversely, that 'it is impossible for a bumblebee to fly.' It was before the great Ken Kesey wrote, SOMETIMES A GREAT NOTION.) I began to discover more about this ‘incredible notion’ (Including the ocean motion?) It also resolved other dissolute and importantly unresolved issues in physical science. The relativistic contraction of physical masses in the direction of their motion at increasing rates of contraction proportional to their velocity, could be attributed to ‘Doppler effect’: if matter was an expanding field... Since Einstein proved that matter does in fact behave that way, doesn't that also prove that matter is an expanding field? But that was, once again, against the well established rules of rejection on this very ('obscure') issue... 'Anyone can see, after all, that universal matter is not expanding...' Advancing plateaus of recognition and realization, celebrating the learning of the hard work of dedicated scientists when they compulsively dismissed the results of what they called ‘null experiments’ - the first such celebration on my part being when I learned that Roland Von Eotvos went meticulously looking for a difference in descent rates between heavier and lighter objects in descent and couldn’t find any difference at all, down to a billionth part of a second. That is somber (though incomplete) evidence that the earth is rising up to meet the apparently falling objects. Einstein's ‘time dilation’ could likewise be explained for the same reason. Relativistic ‘non-absolute space and time’ - ‘space-time’, could likewise be accounted for (An enlarging hierarchy of multi-moment space-times interminably arriving from the past into the present and projecting toward the future). All these unprecedented functionally founded concepts - and previously unexplained phenomena - were being imaginatively accommodated, and explained, on the basis of the same singular premise - that physical matter itself is a constantly (ever faster) expanding; accelerating field: ’the mass field’, I began to call it. Though I was still sure that there must be something about it I didn’t understand - that others did - that disqualified it. Looking at the implied, metaphorically winged flying machine a little more seriously now, still afraid of being embarrassed in front of all those people who had for so long made camp on that cliff and Knew Better than to try to fly (with the provided resources as they understood them). Oh yes. I knew the story of Icarus flying too close to the sun - the wax binding keeping his home made feathered wings together, being melted by the sun, because Icarus tried to fly too high. Bitter-sweetly marooned with the idea that I may have happened into a major discovery of literally astronomical proportions. Certainly an inspiring thought, but I dared not take it - or myself - too seriously. Yet, the more I researched to disqualify it (this graduated at times into frantic searches, desperate hunts for disqualification, because I wanted this White Elephant off my back), the more information gathered tended to support rather than disqualify - I did not fear any disqualification I was hoping to find; it would put away the otherwise increasingly accumulating evidence that I was on to something very important. With regard to 'belief systems', it was very difficult for me to believe that no one else had come up with this before, and that there must be a very good reason or series of good reasons for why it was just as untenable as it appeared to be at first consideration... Future research would reveal that others had indeed preceded myself (as documented herein), but not by the same avenues and invariably abandoning their incomplete research on the understandable but incorrect premise that, 'obviously, the physical universe is not constantly expanding (also as documented herein).' At age seventeen, in mid 1958, I joined the military while continuing my research. The EuroAmerican, transcultural CRACKERJACK (And precipitous Morton salt) GrecoRoman Odyssey - 'Where Goodness Begins'. It was not scientific or inspiring (at first) to be sitting in a Neapolitan restaurant thousands of miles from the North American continent seeing a ‘foreigner’ who didn’t speak much English enjoying a box of Yankee Crackerjack. Anyone could easily wonder at the incongruity of it, after all. As I was saying it was not the usual stuff of conventional or even metaphysical science, to see the answer I was looking for, in or upon a box of Crackerjack, in the lovely hands of a Neapolitan native in a restaurant full of Italian people and Italian made everything, especially food. But this did happen, under those circumstances. Of course my most logical and reasonable facilities told me I might have been pushing this projected hobby horse, as it were, a little too far into the parameters of - perhaps even laughable - improbability. Spending too many late hours at the emerged, ad hoc, amateur’s (he or she who loves his or her work) office. More about alternately losing and finding myself in the (ho hum) artwork on a box of gringo Crackerjack in Italy, in a moment... Disqualification would resolve the increasingly unresolved issue and would have been (and still would be) an unburdening... As it was going, I dwelled in the shifting nether-realm of alternately thinking myself a vain imbecile and maybe a major contributor to the evolution of physical science. Just before age eighteen I was gifted a copy of Einstein’s IDEAS & OPINIONS. I nearly - politely - balked the offering, because although I was aware that Einstein’s work dealt with gravity and light - the subjects I was interested and pursuing studies in, I was intimidated by and impotent in mathematics, especially the high order mathematics that I knew Einstein, and Newton, and many others worked in. As things developed it is likely that, had I been skilled in mathematics I may never have carried through with this unprecedented non-mathematical interpretation of what is for the most part well accounted for in mathematical formulations which have distanced the mathematical innovators from a conceptually comprehensive understanding of what their (metric) mathematics are describing and/or confirming. There is not so much a need for more mathematics here, as there is a need to understand what the mathematics, mean (Exactly what are the qualified mathematical formulae correctly and accurately describing? Segue to my unforeseen appearance upon the well lighted proscenium?)... But as I read Einstein’s work as it was presented in the second half of that book (IDEAS & OPINIONS: Contributions To Science), I recognized that the issues he was dealing with in that particular book, were not so much presented mathematically, and what was being explained non-mathematically (by Einstein), seemed to remarkably parallel the ideas I had been independently developing, or, I should say that my ideas remarkably paralleled his. This instilled more confidence that the apparently absurd notion that the entire physical universe is expanding, was not absurd or ridiculous at all. On the contrary, it seemed - with some exceptions - to be exactly what Einstein was describing, though he didn’t quite specifically and non-mathematically proclaim the physical universe to be expanding, he certainly - characteristically and elaborately - allowed for that possibility, and from what I’ve since been told and learned of his mathematics, they seem to patently prove a physically as well as spatially expanding universe. This was an extremely humbling, and equally encouraging, uplifting experience... (On more escalating elevators than one?) By age twenty I had gone through a series of cycles where it appeared to be an untenable idea and then was redeemed by further thought and research, until I was obliged to realize that until if and when someone or authority could show me what was wrong with this system of thinking, it was not only as good as the existing status quo in physics - it was better. It explained more otherwise unexplained major mysteries - not piecemeal, but rather consistently, with the same over all generalization: physical matter is a constantly - ever faster - expanding field. I eventually realized that it was not any contradiction of the Law of Conservation of Mass Energy. It was the same amount of energy, increasingly distributed over a greater area, in accordance with the law of the inverse square. Could not explain ‘why’ universal matter was expanding, but I was gathering more and more sobering reasons to consider that it was in fact doing so, and that the collective mass of the earth was expanding at 32 feet per second, per second... The descent rate of free-falling objects on earth, in the absence of air resistance. Einstein makes a very big deal out of it (the coincidental' equivalence of heavy and inertial mass values - observed in the 'universal rate of descent'). Calls it ‘an astonishing coincidence’. The whole world has been talking and wondering about it - the ensuing General Principle Of Relativity, equating the unidentified force of gravity with acceleration - ever since... Much important help was gifted to this author - by a certain Neapolitan Guppy and her friends - in the early and critical stages of researching and developing this superlative and unprecedented non mathematical translation of Einstein’s greatest achievements - The Special & General Theories of Relativity; leading to the Unified Field Theory. This work probably would never have been completed, were it not for a reclused woman and her friends. This woman’s name is Mara Benevida; she and many of her friends are as responsible for the initial rough draft writing of Gravity Is The 4th Dimension (Einstein’s abandoned U.F. reinstated w’out mathematics) as this author. Speaking of retrieval, there is a print-painting of a terrier looking dog with a sailor boy on a box of Crackerjack, holding an inevitably smaller box of Crackerjack, upon which is printed another image of what appears to be the same dog beside another - looks like the same - sailor, only smaller; holding yet another box of Crackerjack; with what would seem has a printed painting of another dog beside another sailor holding a yet smaller box of Crackerjack and so on... It seemed to go on forever, if the pictures could somehow be made ever smaller and still exist, as the visibly descending and/or ascending sequence of images certainly suggests... Geometrically squared rectangular boxes of heirarchically parallel and orthogonal Crackerjack containers and icons, out of infinite smallness proceeding to infinite largeness. Si. Nirvana in the guise of Nut city. (It took a while to learn the difference?) Called me ‘Seahorse’ on the day we met. Gave me an English translated copy of Einstein's 'Ideas & Opinions'. She started it. Seahorse spots the ‘displaced’ box of Crackerjack and begins to see in it’s familiar artwork graphics what he will eventually recognize as an important representation of Einstein’s Unified Field without mathematics. Multi-moment space-time. An ensemble of constantly enlarging systems... Ready or not teleported to a place no different than and identical to all the places and times he’s ever known, a day like any other day, only Crackerjack boxes are now showing up in Italy with New World Icons of an ever enlarging - and ever diminishing - blue & white terrier dog with a blue and white sailor boy holding a red striped box of Crackerjack with the image of a Sailor with a Terrier dog, would never again be the same with or without punctuation... Pensive studies widened, more light was let in. Wisdom and knowledge proving once again, like gold, to be where you find it. Who said the ever-smaller sequenced pictures - smaller or larger, past, present & future - had to ‘end’, ever? The law of Conservation of MassEnergy is not infirnged upon in this setting, because it's the same amount of energy, uniformly distributed over increasingly larger areas of space. If the atoms of the universe of the past direction got ever smaller and the atoms of the universe of the present - future direction - got ever larger and the painter or printer passed his job on from one generation to the next: where was the ‘end’ of the illustrated hierarchy of images - the multi-moment space-time ensemble of differently sized pictures of the same dog and sailor boy holding a box of Crackerjack with a picture of himself and his dog on it? Same thing happens on a cylindrical container of MORTON salt, the byword of which is ‘When it rains, it pours." Meaning that humidity or dampness in the air does not prevent the salt from being smoothly dispensed from the container, or whatever shaker it may be contained by. The pictorial logo on this dark blue colored, cylindrically shaped package is a little girl in a yellow skirt, walking in the rain, holding an open umbrella over her head with her right hand; with a container of MORTON salt, pouring out of the metal spout cradled in and under her left hand and arm; upon which is the same pictorial; and so on; squared - same as the CRACKERJACK. (Since then we’ve noticed elsewhere,"Land O Lakes" butter and dairy products 'Where goodness begins'. It's an icon of a beautiful young Native American woman perched on a lake backgrounded - presumably Minnesota - mound of grass, offering a sample of the product - in this case, a pound of butter upon which she is the labeled icon; squared. It doesn't look like the Land O Lakes anecdote of 'Where goodness begins' has any explanation of where it ends... Yes. The same thematically endless heirarchy as the multi-moment 4-D MORTON salt icon - 'When it rains <water> it <Morton salt, still> pours', and, the CrackerJack Sailor - squared.) There were too many coincidences; Einstein was caught up in a similar imbroglio, only it was in Switzerland, just northwest of where all this cartoon compounded dilemma was unfolding and back in the early 20th century. Too many (large and small?) coincidences, as said by some critics of Leo Tolstoy’s WAR & PEACE. Even Mara Mare was too much like Natasha in that same eloquent but redoubtable story (though there were differences?) You know, optionally salted peanuts, popcorn, and that sort of thing... Way too catering to all things theatrical if not thespian. Even that rhymes too much. It was all too aerodynamically flocking much. How could anyone tell someone else about a thing like this...? The scientific status quo has an understandable resistance to any alternative interpretations of what is - as well as what is not - known The Crackerjack box as gift to a friend was a conscious and well humored philosophical wink and salute to and/or about her new sailor boy friend. Mare didn’t anticipate the 4-dimensional dynamic that went with the sweet offering to her (nameless Mirage) friend, any more than had the foil for her lark, but the joined pair of bon vivants crisply caught and went on to field the expansive idea splendidly, with a lot of help from their friends. Certainly and emphatically including Caryn H. Robertson (who consistently underestimates and understates the importance of her inspirational and pragmatic contributions to the better and best portions of this amateur work), without whom this author would never have found the inspiration or encouragement to pursue and write this narrative documentary. Other names were added to the originally dubbed ‘seahorse’, including ‘Americano Marino Maverick’. Mare eventually got around to calling her seahorse, ‘bumblebee’ also, as though the prevailing ambiance (Disneyland?) wasn't ethereally complicated enough... In the words of Galileo's proclamation against the inquisitional orders to disregard what was proven about the movement of the earth... "... still, it moves'. Say what you will mathematically of the flightless bumblebee - like Albert 'The Axe' Einstein's double bit Lambda: 'Still, it flies'. http://www.toequest.com/forum/toe-theory-articles/2516-total-field-theory-reinstatement-cosmological-constant-steady-state-theories.html?ltr=T http://forums.delphiforums.com/EinsteinGroupie There’s more to this 4, 5 & 6 dimensionally extended adventure, approximately replicated in BUTTERFLY, OWL & EAGLE: Athena Marie Prima (A Novel-Journal) - at http://forums.delphiforums.com/Waboose2; ___________________________________________ Epilogue ****************** “Man began speculating about atoms long before science became an organized activity Even to the ancient Greeks it appeared sensible to assume that there might be some kind of ultimate building blocks of matter... “Then, many centuries later, the great Isaac Newton concluded that matter was formed in ‘solid, massy, hard, impenetrable, moveable particles’ - in other words, the atom was something like a billiard ball. Newton’s idea (*of the described ‘particle’) was pure speculation.” - MATTER, p. 119, Life Science Library. The ‘billiard ball’ concept of ‘particle’ was more readily reinforced by direct, subjective experience, than was any objective concept of mysterious continuous forces generated by and emanating - action at a distance across space - from discontinuous particles and combined systems of particles; to influence other particles and systems of particles. - KBR “Magnetism, gravity, and action at-a-distance have not lost an iota of their baffling mystery since Gilbert (before Newton 1642 - 1726)” - Arthur Koestler, THE SLEEPWALKERS. "We no longer think that physical action is explainable in terms of little hard balls which are the centers of all kinds of forces. A much more abstract kind of concept is demanded in which the particle is no longer something which can be considered in isolation, but rather as a part of an all embracing entity called a 'field'.

  5. Brian Greene is a Keen Flying Machine: Spellbound, I will forever be under the baton of Nova's PBS broadcast Elegant Universe. Physicist Brian Greene is a Supreme and Empirical example of what it takes to become an American Idol. Anyone who can begin his fiat in real space-time with a one dimensional loop has my goat, I mean vote. There's no business like show business - like no business I know. The toughest business in the world. No I haven't stood in line to see the movie (stack it higher) yet, but I've read portions of the introduction to his book and all I can say is I've lost my ability to punctuate and misplaced any semblance of scientific inclination in the potent shadow of such a conspicuously talented and charismatic master of ceremonies. In lieu of his Nobel Prize, room must be made for him in the house of Pulitzer, with Golden Globes suspended from the ceiling directly above the staging for the Academy Awards Oscar. Physicist Brian Greene is as every bit as elegant unto science & mathematics as Mike Tyson is unto pugilism in the international championship arena. The author is a model of what it takes to make it in the challenging world of political and social vertical ascension today. If Brian Greene and his 11 to 26 oscillating and undulating Super Strings don't vibrate all the way to the top of where it's at and stay there for another Millennium, displacing even the mighty big bang and black hole sensations, there is no Rex Reed or god... Meanwhile, the history of physics is kaput. My socks roll up and down in contemplation of the unfathomable depths that Lewis Carroll forsook, in his mathematical expeditions to and from Alice's Wonderland. The destiny of science and humanity lies in the architectural ambition of designing a Castle in the Sky, where all that is needed is more bricks, mortar, multi-dimensional universal joints, wiring and an occasional - mathematically manifest - Sky Hook formula: when occasion behooves it. The Sky Hook's irreproachable mathematics rest on the backs of winged turtles. Forego talk of gravity. Any and all comprehensive understanding yields to highly classified. esoteric equations and formulae and elite societies of authorities ensconced in inscrutable coordinates. Bewildered and beguiled public interrogatives may placate themselves with knowing with absolute certainty that the apparent complexities of reality are reducible to something that explains it with a burst of blinding lights that incapacitate all but the most refined, vitally youthful, specially educated and talented observers. A stronger, faster, more sentient class of scholars than there were before. The Past, Present and Future is an anachronism. As for me, I'm investing in #2 pencils and a tin cup. My goodness gracious in these editorial waves of future shock, what Joy of Cooking books will be Magically, Mystically & Mathematically Microwaved by String Theory's 'Mother', next? When Mother needs another string dimension, she summons Father to rustle one up. Hence 10 dimensions beget 11, and if need be, 11 beget 26, and more if you have need for them. Creating a begotten bustle of iconoclastically inbred bastards to rival - or sink - Noah's Ark. The Ministry of Plenty has merged with a Star Trek inspired Hollywood Guild, founded in the Top Guns of Geneva & Stockholm, where the answers proliferate in the parameters of a jungle of particular particles inventoried in collisions of ponderous protons. The reinstallment of Einstein's 'abandoned' Cosmological Constant - Lambda /\ - is a public secret wrapped in dark energy and quintessence, while it is forgotten that Einstein (Who?) was returned to working on what he had earlier called the 'biggest blunder' of his life, before he perished at Princeton in '55. Without a quantitative prediction in over 30 years the New Age string 'theory' advocates are push-pinned to the academic bulletin board, with the young school following the Ministry of Justice, the mathematicians following the funds and the physicists following the grants. The Lost Platoon's objective is to bag a metaphorical lion Einstein spoke of in a parable - of a Unified Field that would unite electromagnetism, gravity and/or quantum theory - and, according to the latest reports from the inscrutable inner circle, quite possibly eliminate any need for gravity altogether. Pretenders may fall with confidence upon the old saw of talking about something that they understand no one comprehends in the first place. Only string 'theorists'. ouija board masters, and certified table levitators will penetrate the mathematical entanglements, equations and collapsations of the triple canopy wet woodlands and thick snarling masses of tropical vegetation where Einstein's (!) fabled, Mighty King of the Jungle Makes and Maintains his Mystical Magic. The lion is too large to be seen in the thick foliage and wilderness right now but the leading scatologists are reporting that soon rare paw prints will be located and the equation and formula slingers will be in gifted sight of the Jungle King's legendary one half inch of tail and then his mighty, hirsute caboose is predicted to emit a roar that may disable all sensory equipment for any further detection of him. The universe (one verse) has been modified by the New Age World Order to mean as many and more universes than there are grains of sand on all the beaches in all the world. The sparkling possibilities are as endless as the New Age revised, revolutionary new approach to the 21st century Theory Of Everything. The *Ministry of Truth has in the meanwhile cleared the path for the industriously unstoppable, corporate state sponsored safari - by way of dismissing reality, for lack of evidence.

  6. "There is no space empty of field." - Einstein "In his novel, THE SEARCH, C.P. Snow describes the reaction of a student in class on hearing the physics professor say he is not sure whether some of of the subject matter in the course is right. This indication of disagreement of those inside physics comes as a surprise to the student; he has heard of past scientific controversies, but the current science which he is studying seemed to lack them altogether, as if scientist-authorities backed it up by unanimous vote. 'Science', writes Snow, 'had seemed to be without people or contradictions.' "The knowledge that physics is not as unanimous or bloodless as it may appear from the outside came as a surprise to me also. I wanted to know more..." - Barbara Lovett Cline, THE MEN WHO MADE A NEW PHYSICS, Preface Speaking at the 2005 Solvay conference David Gross (Nobel laureate) said: "We are in a period of utter confusion...These equations tell us nothing about where space and time come from and describe nothing we would recognise. At best, string theory depicts the way particles might interact in a collection of hypothetical universes...we are missing something fundamental."

Kuhn, from paragraph 1: "Research is therefore not about discovering the unknown, but rather a strenuous and devoted attempt to force nature into the conceptual boxes supplied by professional education". ...........................

Hipp, KSAN radio, San Francisco, 1970 "The old saw, 'There is no gravity, the earth sucks', is no longer tractable.

I agree, much of what you have written, is how I also see one interpretation of Einstein's thinking.

Robertson), 4/18/07 Rascal --- It is not clear to me that you have done anything but quote outdated references. And, to be clear, Newton NEVER based ANYTHING on a graviton. One of the biggest problems Newton had with his own work was that he had no idea concerning what gravity actually WAS. From RascalPuff to BenTheMan: Dear BenTheMan: The point of the 'outdated' references is they're being retrieved from the trashcan by up-to-date contemporary physicists and being put back on the slate. The increasingly desperate big bangers (for example) are plundering key features of what was previously abandoned; while continuing on with their bankrupt (originally presented) 'big bang' , which now only vaguely resembles it's initial inception and presentation. Enter (collectively) in google: LCDM Cosmological Constant Lambda quintessence dark matter Expanding universe big bang acceleration red shift dark energy Friedmann Lemaitre Robertson Walker. Enter in google: 'Einstein was right after all - maybe'. Yes. Newton repeatedly, deliberately and emphatically clarified that 'gravity' was a complete mystery to him.

  8. TV THAT WATCHES YOU Invasion by Satellite. Copyright © 1983, ‘88, ‘92, 2001 & 2006 by K. B. Robertson _____________________________________________ Audio-visual projection and assimilation of images and sounds from movie theater sound tracks and projectors, and then home stationed television receivers, is scientifically agreed as being tantamount to 'artificial experience.' Film 'movies' with sound tracks, as conveyances of education, art and entertainment, entered the three and a half million year old human experience about a hundred years ago. Significantly began to influence 'the masses' from about 1920; thenceforth enjoyed a series of technological improvements that soon held the entire theater going nation - and world - under its audio-visually hypnotic spell. Artificial experience at its initial advent and introduction to the public was, for the most part, intended as and taken for a 'novelty'; a tonic boon to innocent education, art and benevolent entertainment. Enter the Latest & Most Refined Instrument Of Domestic & Foreign Terrorism For better and for worse, as any large public mind and behavior controller, 'movie' films were inspired by and designed for benevolently constructive reasons, which, unfortunately if inevitably soon included some perhaps innocent advertising of corporate state products, the practice of which evolved however haphazardly at first, into carefully contrived, malevolently destructive motivations and designs. With the passage of time and the evolution of trans-global communications and diplomacy - especially influenced by the First World War and then World War II, Korea, and Vietnam, audio-visual experience leaned more heavily toward shaping political and social views and perspectives, that is to say, movies - and then television - increasingly included 'propaganda' - not an inherently destructive practice, depending on how its employed, by whom, for what reasons. Many importantly traditional moral codes were challenged, modified, re-arranged, displaced and/or discarded altogether. Reality was swiftly becoming something else, somewhere else, at some other time... Reality began to be increasingly 'dismissed', in and out of judiciary contexts, 'for lack of evidence'. Heroes and villains had not previously been so widely celebrated, cheered and jeered as they have become, in what this record calls the ‘electronicoliseum’. Loving to hate has always salted the human experience, the condiments of what the cerebralists have taught as natural components of life & death. But unnatural when introduced in artificially projected quantities – souped-up repetitions of key themes - far beyond what the average individual experienced prior to the advent of massively distributed and otherwise publicly projected 'entertainment & advertising industry' presented programming. Before artificial experience became an American and then a world educational-entertainment mainstay for better and worse, the average citizen of the average world state in the past few generations might directly witness significant acts of violence, perhaps a dozen or so times in his or her lifetime - often less than that. There are exceptions to this proffered average (in consideration of people in certain parts of the world), but then, these are exceptions to the proposed rule of the world 'average'. Times have swiftly changed, regarding the human perception of 'normality' - and certainly 'morality' - since what has become the qualified invasion of the American home, family and culture, by methodologically contrived, deviously motivated, television programming. In 1977 and earlier it was responsibly determined that the average television viewer, from birth to age eighteen, has witnessed from 15,000 to 30,000 vividly depicted, replicated or documentary acts of extreme - wide spectrum - violence (including torture and rape of women, children and the elderly). It has since been scientifically determined that such artificial experiences in such abundance are profoundly destructive to the human psyche and consequently, society at large. Subjecting the often issued question: 'Why is there so much violence on television?' The standardized (TV GUIDE) answer is: "That's what the public wants to see." The correct answer is that 'the public' sees - watches: because it's there, because it's on television. (You may not own or use TV at home. But the moment you step out your front door you're influenced by those who do. That is to say, the much touted 'freedom knob' that the cynic will remind - you can 'change stations or turn it off', is no 'escape from TV' at all...) Moreover, it is unlikely that 'the (American) public' "wanted to see the Vietnam War". Yet, it was on television, daily, for hours, for a decade - overtly called, 'Vietnam: The Television War'. Who could argue the logic of a title like that on TV, focused upon that issue? Surely tens of millions of 'autonomous and free people' were voluntarily mesmerized by it, daily… Served up with supper and the 6 O'Clock News. 1965 - 1975. The association of violence with hunger, angst, sadomasochism, self indulgence, pathological narcissism and capricious greed, deliberately induced by corporate state sponsorships ('Burgers and chips! Cars and toy space ships! - To kill and die for!') didn't originate there, but certainly found its culminating place at table throughout the Vietnam War. No word went out from the broadcasting industry that it had abducted the national consciousness - sending its young men and women to fight a war in a foreign land and bringing television cameras with them - a compellingly unrefusable offer ('What you want to see')... For decades the self defending entertainment industry with its corporate state sponsors aggressively broadcast the falsehood that violence on television does not cause (more) violence in reality. Concurrent with prodigious lies endlessly repeated, about Vietnam - what the war was about, why we were there and what was happening... Interspersed with five and ten second 'sound and video bytes' that have become and still continue as audio-visual and therefore cerebral 'icons' - TV and entertainment industry termed 'teasers' - featuring Janet Leigh under Anthony Perkin's butcher knife in the PSYCHO shower; on loop in the American frontal lobes… The Exorcist, Dressed To Kill. Texas Chain Saw Massacre. Natural Born Killers, Just Shoot Me; enthusiastically tagged 'snuff' and 'splatter' movies: logarithmically squared. ('The Smash Hits Keep On Comin' - with a bullet!') In the early '90's, in a series of congressional inquires, investigations and hearings broadcast on CNN, a phalanx of esteemed educators and scientists presented forensic and other scientific evidence in abundant quantities, finally and publicly establishing beyond a reasonable doubt that violence on television does in fact increase violence in reality. This was proved to be true of individually influenced persons as well as and especially of small groups and large crowds of persons - which is what a 'television audience' is, by definition. Hundreds of thousands, and often millions of individuals experiencing the same audio-visual input, with accompanying emotions: simultaneously, on a regular daily basis, for years and decades.... Issues of 'censorship' and 'free speech' are brought to the defense of the television entertainment industry and its sponsors: Whereas, in the preamble to the constitution of the United States, 'the insurance of domestic tranquility' is plainly stated. The promulgation of violence on a national scale - the public endangerment of cross section considered citizens - is in opposition to the cited constitutional preamble. Proving not to be an issue of censorship or free speech, but instead a solemn, peace disturbing issue of public safety - incumbent and impending public endangerment. Not an issue of disallowing adults from watching whatever their choice of (legal) programming. An issue of keeping adult classified material off the public access airways and in the control of the adult audience it is legally and morally restricted to. As the status quo prevails, Two Live Crew, for example, can be aired by any disc jockey in the nation, over public access airways (impacting children everywhere; even when they don't 'tune it in'), howling detailed lyrics about anally gang raping a woman and forcing her to lick the residual fecal material from the appendages of her assailants... Proponents say that this 'entertainment' and 'free speech' is 'protected and guaranteed by the U.S. constitution and the Bill Of Rights.' (The inevitably impacted children - and general populace - be damned.) At the findings of the CNN broadcast congressional hearings, no restrictions were placed on sponsors or broadcasters - no responsibilities were placed on those institutions for controlling the content of their public access projected programming. Instead, it was 'resolved' that 'parents and teachers are responsible for what their children and students see, hear and are influenced by, on public access television and radio.' Enter the 'ratings' system. General Audience. Parental Discretion advised. Restricted - to adults, and X ratings. Of course it is not humanly possible for a parent or teacher to control what their child or student sees on television or hears on the radio, from birth to age eighteen. That is to say, firstly the 'violence on TV' controversy was - vigorously and extensively - denied as having a negative influence on people in reality; then it was finally and reluctantly acknowledged that qualified and commonplace TV programming does in scientifically established fact, have a destructive influence on people - especially children and young people - in reality; whereupon the responsibility for controlling that destructive influence was unrealistically projected on parents and teachers. Another victory was chalked up in the increasingly popular tactic of reversing responsibility, further punishing and Blaming the Victim(s). The lesson learned here was that congress (along with the FCC – Federal Communications Commission) compromised its duties to protect the public from proven serious endangerment, to placing responsibility for controlling that ubiquitously projected danger on the endangered public itself... Apparently congress was paid ('lobbied') off to abandon it's duties to the public, endangered and victimized by the intruding corporate state and the offending administrators of the quasi omnipotent entertainment and advertising/ sponsorship industries. Television industry magnates and their sponsors are - for decades - fully aware of the psychology of violence and its influence on TV viewers. The human brain has a hierarchy of priorities that capture attention most readily - in reality, when threat of violence occurs near or is directed upon a person, that person's attention is riveted on that incoming stimulation. When a person is audio-visually taking in violence conveyed to them in two dimensions via television, that person's attention is riveted upon that incoming stimulation, just as it is in the three and more dimensional world of reality. Capitalism and 'free enterprise' are frequently held to account for this usurpation of peace and tranquility in America; whereas the declination of moral standards and the deliberate propagation of fear, confusion and chaos for profit, mind and crowd control is the real cause of the (still denied) national epidemic of violence (domestic terrorism); still encouraged, promulgated, normalized and denied by the cited, rogue corporate state and entertainment industry perpetrators. Webster's 20th CENTURY DICTIONARY: 'Terrorism':"...use of terror and violence to intimidate, subjugate, etc., especially as a political weapon or policy." Terrorism is in military terms, the deliberate and methodological making of war against non combatant civilians, including women, children and the elderly. Resource information's (Most recently, Caleb Carr's highly acclaimed Lessons of Terrorism) explain that terrorism in the form of deliberately targeting non-combatants became a standard military tactic early in the institution of organized warfare as a way of depriving combatants of the certainly necessary and inevitable infrastructural support of the populated nation or tribe from which the combatant enemy originated. Late examples include The U.S. Army's wars against the indigenous natives ('nits make lice') of North America, along with Sherman's March through Georgia; 'area bombing' (of civilians in heavily populated European and Asian cities) in World War II, and most recently and conspicuously, the 'pacification' (genocidal policy) practiced by the United States military in Vietnam ('the Phoenix Program', for example) - conducted with the same ruthless motivation (obliteration or incapacitation of the perceived enemy's infrastructure). Saint Augustine is known for his failed effort to discourage or eliminate terrorist - anti civilian - tactics from warfare, by appealing to the 'religious conscience'. Augustine was moved - immediately after the sack of Rome in 410 AD, by barbarian Goths - to write his 'unjust war' dissenting treatise - highlighting alarming comparative discrepancies between 'the city (ways) of God' and 'the city (ways) of man'. Erasmus and Martin Luther likewise put forward similarly failed advisories, as did Sir John Fastolf in advising the King of England, in 1435, during a lull in the 100 Year War between England and France. Appeals to religious institutions for restraint were quickly lost in the - especially upper echelon Catholic - church's penchant for torturing and murdering masses of innocent people in the name of God, Jesus and/or the Blessed Virgin. Whereas Sir John Fastolf, a military man, began to cast a more erudite light on the dastardly subject when he impressed other military leaders that the tactic of terrorism was counterproductive to military interests; yet still the policy went on - and continues to the present day. The events of 11 September 2001 were not exclusively accountable to foreigners attacking America. It happened to be a terrorist event that could not be ignored or rationalized as 'normal'. The attack on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon did not occur in a political or social vacuum. Domestic elements in the United States had much earlier set the stage, not only in foreign countries terrorized by the United States, but in America itself, where American citizens have been terrorized by qualified elements of the corporate state, rogue military and police elements, for decades. Witnesses comparing what they saw in New York City on 11 September 2001, to 'a disaster movie' were understandably compelled to compare those artificially experienced events with what had now unfolded in reality. Already a spate of corresponding ('cathartic') 'sick jokes' are in circulation ('The New York Skyline looks cleaner now'.) The U.S. military and Corporate State was doing elaborate business with the Taliban and many other mid-east, Irani, Iraqui and *Afghan leaderships (before the so called 'ending of the cold war'), when *they were at war with Russia, for eight years. There are many - publicly known - connections and influences at work joining the so called 'MidEast Terrorists' and (qualified, rogue) U.S. military and corporate state representatives. Convolute, classified secret connections and influences - that were not and are not revealed to the American people, lest they recognize an enemy within, also. Bearing in mind that the 'anthrax' vehicularized terrorism that gripped the nation, narrowly preceded the 911 attacks, and that the anthrax bio-strain that was employed and distributed has since then been traced to strategic, military and corporate state origins (laboratories) inside the United States. Disclaimers have since been circulated that the domestically generated anthrax was stolen and domestically employed by foreign enemies. ‘The Invisible 1984 Machine War’, was and remains among the major - tolerance threshold expanding - settings leading up to '911' - what many astute if stoic observers are already calling, 'the falling of the other shoe', and the 'chickens coming home'. There is responsible dialogue - that this is not the beginning of major terrorist activities (as old as 'revenge' - greed, looting, rapine, sadomasochism and organized if unchivalrous military warfare), but rather a tragically dramatic reminder of a popularly re-emerging trend that is still apparently in it's early stages of 'reemergence' (never long absent from the extended historical view of warfare, since the advent of organized war and sociopolitical hegemony)... Domestically originated terrorism in America re-emerged and flagrantly 'went public' with the assassination of John & Robert Kennedy (and the nation oppressing, constitution sacking intrigue and duplicity that still accompanies those dissolute issues alone; certainly including the murders of Martin Luther King and Malcolm X ): Ruby Ridge, Waco, and the Oklahoma *Federal Building bombing. (*Occurred exactly two years, to the day and hour, after the Waco, Texas debacle; *resulting in the prosecution and conviction of one man: Timothy McVeigh.) ________________ There were and are other modern day precedents, one in particular, still bountifully active, generally uncontroversied and deliriously unrestrained... Observers from within presciently beheld this generally free and sovereign nation and its citizenry, with impatient, hungrily envious eyes...

If you can’t govern, administrate or elucidate: entertain. Grant priority to ‘violence as entertainment’. Refer, ‘Order through chaos’.

(A word - and historical documentary - about 'our wonderful sponsors, and all the marvelous people who <knowingly> support them'....) >>>>> * * * * <<<<< TV reconnaissance by satellite is no longer a new consideration in the American consciousness: Whereas, those hi-tech hardware and electronics were generally unknown and uncontroversial three and four decades past... When and where it all started, with Bell Telephone Laboratories successful 10 July 1962 launching of the satellite name-saked TELSTAR, and much of the rest of that story is only recently becoming known history. The '80's 'LandSat' satellite TV reconnaissance was obscurely known to the public as a boon to scientific observations of the earth's ocean and geological and other topological conditions. Little was said about the socio-political implications of the employment of such technology - information always having generally been much more valuable - and often more interesting - than mere money. A spate of recent popular films features the employment of TV satellite reconnaissance as focused on specific places and individuals, but even these 'sneak previews' limit the satellite technology's ability to 'recon' only from an 'above' perspective. ENEMY OF THE STATE, starring Gene Hackman brought that misinformation home strongly in the public's perception of the limitations of reconnaissance by satellite TV - in that film, the targeted individual had to be outdoors, and, in order to be identified, had to 'look up', in order for the satellite TV to I.D. the target. Meanwhile, satellite improvised TV has been wherever radio waves have been (wherever you can tune in and listen to a conventional radio), since TELSTAR, 1962. Since then, having been vastly improved upon and much more commonly employed; 'gathering information' from many more locations - for reasons which span from scientific to the capriciously corrupt. Google 'satellite imagery, my house', and observe the lateral, street level perspectives - from the sides - of given homes and landscapes. Moreover, what they don't tell you, is that they may see where your couch is situated inside your house, how many pillows are on it, and detailed pictures of the pictures on your living room wall; etceteras... THE HOMELAND SECURITY, and PATRIOT ACT has very recently normalized the entire, previously 'incredible' (remarkably fickle) scenario... Wherein, since the World Trade Center catastrophe, anyone's telephone may be tapped, at any time, for any reason or lack of it, without a judge's order or due cause. Moreover, since 911, anyone may be placed on satellite TV, 24-7/365, without a judge's order, or due cause. Martial Law has not been announced but is de facto, functionally installed. This observation is in response to the question of what persons or institutions inside the United States might profit or otherwise be empowered by an event such as that of the World Trade Center disaster… 1984 happened - came and went - such a long time ago, after all, *'Where is Big Brother?' - TIME magazine -*issue 1/1/'84 - can't find him anywhere.

No one will be watching us!'- The Beatles>) ________________________ Enter Orwell’s 1984 MINISTRY OF TRUTH & JUSTICE As an idea, 'The Machine' was composed independently, about forty five years following the advent of the public radio broadcasting era (1914), by several inventive early electronics pioneers. Later, various owners, operators and caretakers called it 'The Invisible Machine'. Its original hardware prototype came together for the first time in 1959, under military contracted sponsorship of civilian scientists and individual technicians. These were commissioned by the military, to design prove and assemble components, the total functional assemblage of which no one of these unnamed machine component builders understood. The Big idea behind the machine is: Audio-visual access - TV reconnaissance - without microphones or cameras; via radio microwaves. Machine Theory is: Any space in which a microwave transmitted radio signal can be placed (anywhere any conventional portable radio receiver is operational) is audio-visually accessible, via television implemented reconnaissance: without cameras or microphones. The abilities and powers of The Invisible Machine are not to be confused with its fictional counterpart in George Orwell's 1984. In that novel, the Orwellian - "Big Brother is watching" - machine also looks over its subjects, but the viewed subject must be in the immediate presence - and in front of - that (Big Brother's) 2-way TV screen: "The telescreen could be dimmed, but there was no way of shutting it off completely. Winston kept his back turned to the telescreen. It was safer, though, as he well knew, even a back can be revealing." - George Orwell, 1984 , excerpt. On the other hand, the only spaces The Invisible (‘What?’) Machine can't see into and place on television, are exclusively those spaces where a portable radio cannot receive radio signals, such as within a deep tunnel or canyon. Such visually inaccessible spaces are called ‘radio wave shadows’ - the only blind spots in the Invisible Machine's audio-visual, ever potential omniscience. The Machine's camera is radio (micro) waves themselves. Anywhere a radio wave can be placed by a conventional transmitter, can be automatically wired for sight and sound, by The Machine's microwave radar transceiver. Any object - animal, mineral or vegetable - anywhere within the field of that radio wave transmission can be placed - targeted - on conventional TV, anywhere, from any distance and/or angle: at the will and convenience of The Machine's operators; under the influence and/or persuasion of their up-signaling subscriber ships - the self proclaimed (Orwellian ‘NewSpeaking’) PeerAmid Society - one of the many Orwellian NewSpeak coded names for itself, employed by the EYE society's inner circle. As an information gathering system The Invisible Machine and its operator-subscriber’s comparatively make Big Brother's 2-way TV screen reconnaissance resemble a toy that George Orwell may have extracted from a box of CRACKERJACK ('The - Students Against Gravity <SAG> endorsed - candy with a toy inside'. Wink). The subjected Machine transmits conventional microwave radio signals in the higher frequencies; thereby providing its operators with total audio-visual television access to all spaces immersed in that radio wave signal. The Invisible Machine utilizes standard RaDaR (Radio Detection and Ranging) technology; exactly as - for the past seventy years - it (radar) has been understood to exist and function - but with the innovational introduction of state-of-the art radio technology's microwave transmitters and receivers; attachable to any conventional TV receiver, cable accessed anywhere; via satellite reception (closed circuit cable). A conventional radar contact (blip) is electronically and optically zoomed-in upon (dramatically magnified without loss of optical resolution), by way of the Machine's (auxiliary) ultra-dense radio microwaves. For the same reason a newspaper photo yields varying detail under magnification; in accordance with how large or small the dots constituting the wire-photo-transmitted pictures are. In this comparison, the smaller and closer together (more dense) the picture's dots, the more detail (optical resolution) will appear under magnification. This same principle holds true as applied to the Invisible Machine's usage of micro radio waves (small dot) radar; as compared to conventionally limited (large dot) radio wave radar. The Machine also provides its own lighting; facilitated by the same radio waves (invisible artificial light) serving as its camera(s) and microphone(s). The uninitiated often refuse to consider that such technology is even possible; asserting that, 'Technology isn't that far advanced', or, flatly proclaiming that 'It can't be done' (Television can't happen backwards, here). The mesmerized, couch potato tuber worshipping audience has been watching pictures - with sound tracks - sent at light speed from transmitters, through thousands of miles of space, and reassembled in their living rooms, for the past fifty five years (long before satellite technology); the past 50+ years of which have been in living color. Meanwhile, radar technology is older than public TV, and micro-wave technology was new (that far advanced), 45+ years ago. The phosphorescent green blip on a radar screen that represents contact with a Boeing 747 commercial aircraft can be zoomed in upon with ever smaller microwaves, until the resulting optical resolution allows the radar operators to read the on-board menu, and/or a letter or postcard being written or magazine being read by any of the on-board passengers. Contrary to popular understandings of this relatively obscure - correspondingly neglected, high priority - issue, those who are aware of surface relay stations and satellite facilitated audio-visual reconnaissance via radio waves without cameras or microphones, still generally believe that satellite TV reconnaissance is only effected from an 'above' perspective, whereas, Radio-Radar microwave frequencies not only read the license plates on automobiles from above, but also routinely read driver's licenses inside the wallets the targeted drivers are sitting on. There is no angle or perspective limitation on the cited apparition at issue here. It is as versatile, omnipresent and unstoppable as attenuated microwave electromagnetism (bright light that you can't see; flooding even the darkest recesses, anywhere a microwave radio signal can be projected.). There is nothing new about The Invisible Machine, except its public revelation; its own notably belated, apocalyptic appearance before a premiere open public, national / international (now, post 911 informed Actively Patriotic, Big Brother, Homeland Security loving) audience. Nothing new, but for its inner-Circle (voyeur pervert society) 'new language' - plagiarized NewSpeak and DoubleThink, from Orwell's 1984; exercised by its self proclaimed 'immaculate family' of operator-subscribers (basing much of what they do - including the practice of ‘NewSpeak’ - on George Orwell's book, 1984, and, in the alleged sanctuary of the Holy Bible, esp. REVELATION). And, finally, what is most new of the Machine, is this publication describing it. The original civilian designers and builders of this military sponsored hardware were commissioned by diplomatic representatives of the Pentagon. The Machine's first working proto-type was activated at its Pentagon birthplace, as its indulgent maiden voyage operators playfully toured the entire Pentagonal complex proper. Its first victim was a woman of course; followed into a Pentagon powder room. This was the first of the Machine's assaults; the amused inner circle agreed: She didn't feel a thing. It would later be refined to see anyone it wished to see, naked (Under their clothes), anytime it suited the Machine operator’s fans, and their fancies. The Machine thenceforth had a mind of its own - a criminal opportunity and motivation, via an unbeatable system. It was now - therefore - an itt (itt) - to distinguish itt from any other kind of it. In this way, itts corporate state affiliated operators and audience became THEM. THEY are THOSE who invented, deployed, subscribe to, socialize with and indulge in push-button assault - at and from a guaranteed safe; unaccountably anonymous distance; but that is only itts 'recreational' applications. Illegal access to and acquirement of classified and/or private information - industrial espionage, and socio-political extortion - took on a whole new method of watchful research: under ‘the invisible machine’s’ EYE in the sky. Information 'above all else'... A movie star can not only survive X-rated pictures and/or movies of his/herself released to the public, stardom can actually be augmented and expedited with controversial publicity by such an exposure; whereas the same embarrassment imposed on a politician, or anyone with political ambitions, marks the limitations if not the end of that political career. Therein resides the extortive formula for controlling any and all politicians of whatever rank or station - how the United States is conquered and controlled at the local, state and federal levels of government. A matter of three months after itts advent, itts crew of high ranking scientists and military personnel celebrated the certainty of knowing the Russians didn't have anything like itt, because the Machine's first ninety day mission was the combing of all the academies, scientific institutions and military installations back in the USSR, searching for anyone (else) doing the same thing they were doing. No. There were no RFRTs (Radio Frequency Radar Televisions) in Russia. Not in November, 1959, anyway. From that moment on, all the most top secret news in any Russian institution of informational importance was no less the same top secret (restricted access) news in the Pentagonal inner-circle: unlimited blackmail and extortion potential - privacy, only humanly being a biological imperative. Meanwhile, in a more solemn vein, certain kinds of classified military, civilian and socio-political information is more valuable than money, and often directly relates to issues of public safety, personal privacy and of course, national security. The alternative entertainment and voyeuristic exploitation power of the cited information gathering miracle here, is the Machine's ability to see anyone, any time itt wishes to see them, putting his or her pants on, one leg at a time. Exclusive V.I.P. television subscribers never cease to be fascinated by the personal revelations of their Machine and itts codified non stop Hollywood movie show candid camera. Yes, anybody, anywhere, at any time. Nude! Nude! - Totally nude. Compromised positions and situations of every exciting, satisfactorily disgusting and otherwise continuously entertaining, inner-circle subscribing description. Exactly when, where and why The Machine was predisposed between 1959 and 1961 is unknown to this record, but itts highly classified military deployment surfaced as early as 1961, in what was then called French Indochina/Vietnam. In those days the Invisible Machine operators called itt 'the VC Finder' - the Vietcong Finder. Word is, the Machine could find anyone, including all of our very own scattered remains - be they only wafts of crimson mist in the wind; as well as spinning dog tags and chains dangling from the triple canopy trees... The Machine was there, ‘helping to win’ - ‘seeking an honorable end’ to - the war in Vietnam. A MOVEABLE VIETNAM: A Continental Misunderstanding, continued: In conjunction with the American involvement in Vietnam (‘the television war'), the Machine as a package, began to be mass produced. The early package included varying powered transmitters and relays, with corresponding ranges and black box receivers, attachable to any conventional TV set. Later, early ‘60's packages were collectively served by a single reflecting amplifier satellite in stationary orbit; making obsolete, formerly employed high powered relay (long range, ground based) transmitters - all of this International Business and free enterprise under exclusive military contract. 'For classified secret military use, only against enemies of the U.S.; outside the inter-continental limits of the U.S.' The Invisible Machine nullifies any semblance of citizen sanctuary and privacy, in and out of the domestic domicile. The public is told of Watergate icebergs, spy satellites, listening and reconnoitering devises; this or that electronic and/or microwave probe, and sideways-looking radar. The public is not told what these terms actually mean; neither, to what devises and deployments some of these publicly aired technical references actually refer; nor with what socio-political consequences. Least of all has the American public been informed that the Machine (The VC Finder) is capriciously deployed all over the United States - especially California - since at least 1964. Military cryptological radio frequency reflection satellites, attenuated to ongoing ground based VC Finder access frequencies, attached to any civilian computer bank with a radar dish on the roof. When is the last time "you can't televise backwards" saw a radar dish on a roof somewhere? Well? Right there, is how and where itt could happen here, backwards - right under and up your nose. Any reconnaissance vector mode, including from the bottom of your commode. Total audio-visual living color television access to any space upon and/or above the surface of the earth; anywhere a portable radio can receive conventional radio signals. Si. Good Morning Vietnam. All of this is so apparently Felliniesque and not so apparently the ongoing techno-socio phenomenological status quo, we are implored to further consider some more familiar, introductory information and manners of speaking of itt. As itt continues, like the controversial 500 pound canary, to fly and perch and sleep and poop wherever and upon whomever itt pleases...

Watergate is so often daringly referred to by commentators as 'the tip of the iceberg.' One can only marvelously wonder (Through a glass, darkly?) at the chillingly cubicle thought of the (elusively tinkling) rest of it... Watergate. Iceberg. The Watergate iceberg largely entailed the electronic bugging of the White House Oval Office. It had been done before, by Roosevelt, Truman, Eisenhower and Kennedy. But never before had any other president occasioned to produce - and then boldly release - such hotly misspoken, expletively deleted copy. How perfectly clear EYE makes itt. Any iceberg, it is common knowledge, finds buoyancy (suspensory displacement) with about 90% of its mass beneath the surface of its supporting (water) medium. Ergo, that part of Watergate revealed to and known by the public, constituting everything above the controversial Watergate iceberg's waterline. The remainder of the presidential office scandal of the century therefore remaining immersed, beneath the surface of public awareness. Invisible. Unrecognized. Socially ‘all-knowing.’ It's impossible. It can't be done. I don't believe it. It may be possible. It could be done. It has been done. It's happening now. It's been happening for a long time.

Do you get the picture? The (self proclaimed 'elite') subscriber-ship does. The Invisible Machine and entertainment industry sponsored war upon the amusing seen - they are fond of musing among themselves, in their inner-circle language coded, Orwell plagiarized, language-slaying NewSpeak. It gets - and goes - orbits - round and around. Dear reader may recall Nixon's personal secretary, Rosemary Woods, just before her boss - under court order - released an enormous quantity of tapes to the Watergate Committee. In the middle of that voluminous tape release was a much-controversied erasure of 18 & 1/2 minutes duration; which Rosemary Woods has accounted for as: 'An accidental erasure with a foot operated treadle devise.' - TIME magazine, paraphrased. Merely an accidental erasure on the part of the presidential secretary, while expeditiously reviewing the tapes for release, transcription and distribution. Every expert who has since studied the legendary 18 & 1/2 minute gap in the Watergate tapes has agreed that It is a recording of ‘eighteen and one half minutes of sixty cycle hum, probably from the high intensity lamp the presidential secretary used on her desk.’ - TIME magazine, paraphrased. Inner-circle word is, that the extracted material at issue here, was the subjection of the information gathering miracle described in this ('incredible', 'crackpot') report. Contrary to the popular ongoing perception of the besieged Nixon office & administration, that ex officio executorship did not exist at the topmost apex pinnacle of the 'Watergate iceberg'; but rather, on the bottom of that same, so called iceberg - buried beneath the 90% portion that very few people see, glimpse or imagine.

DoubleThink they call it. As in War is peace, and Hate is love." - George Orwell, 1984 The definition for doublethink is: "Two - mutually conflicting - parallel lines, to infinity." To double-Think-Newspeak is to deliberately or inadvertently manufacture false, confusion-generating dilemmas, i.e., ‘crazy making’. "Peace is hell, for the unemployed veteran." - The National Advertising Council. If you enjoyed the (visible) Watergate Follies - you're gonna love the rest of it (under the tip of the titanic iceberg). Here's some familiar old fashioned cultural folklore, updated and translated to innerCircle NewSpeak, rite now: "EYE'll be seeing you, in all the old familiar places. With all the old familiar faces. Eye'll be seeing you!" The morally founding fodder's of the VC Finder, quickly developed a codified language of their own. Itt ís called the electric blanket. Itt's victims are termed 'electric blanket parties.' Itt is also referenced as the 'telephone, and the 'mirror'. In reference to itts orbital reflecting satellite IT&T is called 'the phone booth, the light, the eye, the boss, the flashlight, the dance floor (under the spot-light), and the (social) circus.' People subjected to VC Finder surveillance (blanket parties) are also called 'hotels' or 'houses.' This or that victim is a hotel or house, because the subscriber ship audio-visually stays with (sits or stands beside) and lives with that person (inside & out). "Have you ever been experienced? Well EYE have." A traveling victim (host) is also referenced as a 'bus', or 'car', because subscribers all travel with /inside that person. 'EYE will follow you. Wherever you may go. Eye'll be right by your side.' 'Livin' it up at the hotel California! You can check out any time you like, but you can never leave!' All targeted victims are said to be made to ‘wear earphones', because their very ear-drums are easily monitored and amplified, as the targets own hearing experiences become those also of the electronically tuned in subscriber ship. The length of time a victim is reconnoitered by the subscriber ship is called a ‘night’, because their televised (‘inmate/ prisoner’) victims are ‘kept in the dark’ with regard to their unwelcome, errant, U.S. constitution-sacking TV audience. In the cases of some particularly attractive women, a VC Finder night, may go on for weeks, months or years... 'EYE bless the day EYE found you! Now and forever, let it be me. Each time we meet, love. EYE find complete love. Without your true love, where would EYE be?' A Million Points of Light Randomly selected people are beamed up into a moveable STAR TREK (‘Start-Wreck’) set; inescapable and continuous television reconnaissance. Ruthless, subversive, New Age imprisonment. Itt is often codified as 'prison, jail, the corner, the frame, the jungle (as though to ‘naturalize' its consummately perverse, unnatural methods and motivations. ‘The Jungle’ is also a novel by Upton Sinclair - author of a book, written in anger, about the socio-moral injustices of the meat packing industry) and the fall ' - referencing not only the victim's demise, but also a clever reminder that any satellite's orbit is sustained by its perpetually free-falling, literally around the world. Hence, the subscribership's elitist codified humor often complaisantly embraces universal gravitation (When EYE fell for you), and flight itself (Watch the birdie!). The indulgent audience was transfixed with what was happening to selected ‘targets’; apparently without a thought to what their role as passive observers (‘practicing a little innocent voyeurism’) was doing to themselves: in this way fulfilling the objective of the programming originators – devisively controlling the most number of people, for the longest period of time; cultivating an invasionary, intrusive appetite for destruction. Imposing order through chaos, while expanding 'tolerance thresholds'. The ‘Amusing’ Conquest of Human Dignity, continued: All derogatory names for women are applied to male victims; conversely applied to female victims. This is called 'turning them upside down.' Victims are frequently referenced as every kind of oriental (Japanese, Chinese, Korean, Taiwanese, Vietnamese, etceteras) - all under the general, 'slant eyed, slope headed' category of 'gooks'; because Asian languages are written and read upside down and backwards, relative to English, and because, relative to the North American continent, all of Asia with its people is upside down. Many words have ‘koded’, inner-circle meaning to the close-knit bond of secret subscribers. Such codification is not only the dehumanizing, necrophile objectivisation of thereby divided, compromised and conquered people as policy, it is also important to the versatility and conversationally self indulgent Orwellian NewSpeaking subscribership. There are many innerCircle developed reasons for all the apparently absurd rules and usage's of their code (1984 plagiarized ‘DoubleThink’) language - to nurture and encourage the subscribership to feel a guilt free, conscienceless sense of superiority, nurtured on invasive, intrusive, Fascist inspired mind-sets. The PeerAmid Society language aids in identifying itself to its membership, while further concealing itself from the uninitiated. Their 'new language' also includes a numbers (numerology) code, which keeps the subscribers counting out the letters of variously coded phrases and words. Preoccupation with counting engages the NEWSPEAKING subscribership's left-hand cerebral hemisphere - the part of the human brain that accommodates numbers and straight lines; thereby displacing and counting out the right hand cerebral (female, intuitively artistic) brain, through deliberately calculated usage's of words and phrases of 11, 13 and 22 letters - codifically applied to describe a given target (‘the human toy’ = 11 letters, for example; any written material is chock full of words and phrases of 11, 13 and 22 letters, which keeps them counting. Re. ‘psychomolecular restructuring, operant conditioning, neurolinguistic programming – brainwashing’, by any other name). Misogyny (woman hating) is a primary ingredient throughout the practiced kode. 'She was only a farmer's daughter! But for a moment there! She was the idol of the whole damned band! '/ 'Raven hair! Ruby lips! Sparks fly from her fingertips! Evil woman! See how high she fly EYE EYEs!' (Flight, in this context, is an entendre doble, referencing the subscriber ship’s satellite access to the subjected victim.) Woman-hating is policy, along with verbally practiced racism and every other form of denigrating the value of human life. Meanwhile, the fastest growing violent crime in the U.S. is the physical abuse of women, by men. Every kind of child abuse, and abuse of the elderly is a close second. This is a functional indictment for socialized, ‘politically correct’ Nazism as dominant paradigm. Half of this nationally problematical epidemic of violent language and active crime, is its commonplace denial. “The crime rate is actually going down’. ‘There is no “they”, etc. The individual or group is ‘grid-locked’’ from correcting a problem that they refuse to acknowledge. Real problems, when denied, characteristically get worse. The normalized denial continues. squared. Divide & Conquer, continued: Another code word for itts membership subscription is 'the farm'; upon which itts victims are cows, yielding milk and/or hamburgers. They ride their victims ('In the desert onna horse with no name') with their saddle light; hence, victims are favoritely codified as being out west, a western movie, featuring Beasts Of Burden (B.O.B.s) and every kind of dog. Itts prey is under the light; subject-victims are said to be 'on the beach, sunburned, down south, on the desert and in New Orleans, at *Mardi Gras' (*Fat Twos-day - where the celebrators are masked, unaccountable). Overtly naked victims are mirthfully termed bears; clothed victims (quite anyone at all) are naked under their clothing; often called 'chickens' and/or 'fried chickens,' "EYE can eat more chicken than any man you ever seen! Yay! Yay! " - Mick Jagger An elaborate, Lewis Carrolesque, Alice In Wonderland numerologized, crazymaking retreat into Orwellian NewSpeak. The Final Nod.

What the subscriber ship does. And who they do it for. The former sales credo, 'Find a need and fill it', is transmutated by them to, 'Find a security and kill it.' They - the petroleum industry and world hard drug cartel - the people who tell the media what and when to mediate, and not to mediate - have passed the word that 'Life got tougher' - and cheaper - 'and EXEDRIN (for example) got stronger (and more expensive).’ The key to brainwashing is repetition. As in Orwell's '84, all the citizen need do is not hear, see, know or understand what she or he formerly understood, knew, saw and heard. Note the prevailing advertising technique of deliberately associating hunger and food, with violence - a favorite corporate state advertising policy. 'The hamburger wars'. ('Make 7! UP yours!'. - a hard core anal rape soft drink commercial.) Had this been an actual Emergency Broadcast System sounding PIZZA HUT commercial; naturally, most listeners would have been instructed 2 tune in 2 obedient, Pavlovian salivating hamburger hunger in the same, normalizing (A-1 SAUCE bite counting) flash.

A Historical Review Follows: Of The Noble And Innocent Evolution Of Communications Science And How It Finally Came To Be Subverted From Granting Freedom And Education, Into An Insidious Instrument Of Anti-Education, Orwellian NEWSPEAK and DOUBLETHINK, Social Oppression And Destruction. How Technology In The Below Cited Case Was Transformed From Constructive Power, To Destructive Power. And The Treacherous Reasons Why. (The following information is excerpted from a pamphlet distributed by Pacific Gas & Electric, in 1981.) Benjamin Franklin set out to discover that natural lightning was the same stuff as electricity in his famous kite and wire experiment. Later, Michael Faraday devised the first machine to make electricity from mechanical energy. It wasn't very efficient, but it worked. Heinrich Hertz found a way to create the disturbances studied by James Clerk Maxwell, and showed they behaved in the same way as light! It was the beginning of wireless radio. Alexander Graham Bell invented the first electric diaphragm activated - wire conducted - telephone. Thomas Edison is best remembered for his invention of the electric light bulb, but just as great was his phonograph for sound recording and playback... Forerunner of today's hi-fi stereo systems. In 1837, at the age of 44, Samuel Morse, a portrait artist, built the first practical telegraph sounder. The first telegram, 'What hath God wrought?', was sent from Baltimore in 1844. Mr. Morse was of course, the inventor also, of Morse code, which made the telegraph messages decipherable. The first transcontinental message was sent from San Francisco to Washington, D.C. Thenceforth, the young telegraph system got its baptism of fire during the U. S. Civil War, which began in 1861. On December 12, 1901, Guglielmo Marconi sent the first trans-Atlantic wireless message from England to St. Johns, Newfoundland. It marked the beginning of long range radio communication. Soon, even better radio sets were made. U.S. Army Major Edwin Armstrong developed the superheterodyne receiver during World War I. It gave the U.S. and its allies a great advantage. He also developed FM (frequency modulated) radio during the late 1930’s. Other fields of electronics began to develop also. In 1933 Karl Jansky announced the discovery of radio waves from outer space! The beginning of radio astronomy. That's why U.S. engineers eventually discovered a way to fly a space-ship from orbit to an earth landing. Mobile - satellite receiving and transmitting - ground stations sending and receiving electronic signals to and from satellites above the earth let us see worldwide events like the Olympic Games on color TV, as well as news and cultural programs. By 1939, electronics was a very active business and industrial field. There were even some small commercial TV sets in production. First employed in New York City, Chicago and Los Angeles. Now, families in the U.S. can enjoy, in their own homes, satellite relayed programs from around the world, via rooftop dish antennae and special terminals attached to TV sets. It ushers in a new era of news and cultural communications between peoples of the world. Leading perhaps, to a better (or worse) understanding. Rapid communications has made neighbors of the people of the world, and Alexander Graham Bell's telephone has played a major role. (Interestingly, when Bell's telephone was first announced to the public, people were not particularly impressed. No practical use was foreseen for it. What this demonstrates is that people didn't have any experience with instant communications. A person either traveled to wherever and whomever they wished to talk to, or wrote a letter.) Soon, many telephones will have a picture phone so you can see the person you're talking to. Yes, our country must continue to explore... To discover... To invent... To pave the way for future generations. This means many exciting opportunities for young science explorers! Would you like a career in science? Remember! Only a few of the discoveries made by the United States are subjected here. The U.S. is a nation which only 205 years ago was what we call today a developing nation. The future is even brighter... If we continue to explore, to discover, to invent... If we continue to use an opportunity born in FREEDOM! The story you have just read began countless centuries ago because our ancestors had a natural curiosity about things. Each generation explored, observed, discovered, invented and passed along to the next generation their contribution to the body of knowledge we call SCIENCE (Hi Tech)... And to a better way of life we call FREEDOM!

"But we had forgotten that alongside Orwell's dark vision, there was another, slightly older, slightly less well known, equally chilling: Aldous Huxley's BRAVE NEW WORLD. "Contrary to common belief even among the educated, Huxley and Orwell did not prophesy the same thing. Orwell warns that we will be overcome by an eternally imposed oppression. But in Huxley's vision, no Big Brother is required to deprive people of their autonomy. As he saw it, people will come to love their oppression, to adore the technologies that undo their capacities to think. "What Orwell feared were those who would ban books. What Huxley feared was that there would be no reason to ban a book, for there would be no one who wanted to read one (The most - by far - widely read printed material in the U.S. is TV GUIDE.

Huxley feared those who would give us so much (trivial, vain, useless, and/or destructively influential information) that we would be reduced to passivity and egoism. "Orwell feared that the truth would be concealed from us. Huxley, that truth would be drowned in a sea of (’feel good meal’, violence drenched) irrelevance. "Orwell feared that we would become a captive culture. Huxley feared we would become a trivial culture, preoccupied with some equivalent of the feelies the orgy porgy, and the centrifugal bumblepuppy.

  10. Brer Fox & the Tar Baby - A Sticky Object Lesson THE MALICIOUS ABUSE OF INNOCENCE Pt I ----------------------------------------------- “Conformist group aggression: the most common, the most dangerous, and the most difficult to prevent.” – Eric Fromm, The Anatomy of Human Destructiveness (“He’s about to expose the KGB, the FBI, the CIA, and himself!” “How do you tell anyone about a thing like this?” “That’s easy. You just tell ‘em the truth”. “Oh. I see. You’re gonna write fiction”. - Dialogue between Glenda Jackson & Walter Mathheau excerpted from the movie: Hop Scotch.) This monologue regards a formerly close friend of Truly Yours, who I’d known for decades. At least, I thought I knew him, until he made the mistake of telling me on the telephone, in elaborate detail, that he was responsible for the rape of a child that wasn’t reported to the police, while someone else – his stepfather - was secretly blamed and covertly punished for it, without ever being confronted with the accusation or the reason for his tormentation; thereby disabling the falsely accused from defending himself. Meanwhile, from the moment the cited ‘friend’ said that he and his wife learned of this detailed allegation from their child, they were obliged to report it to authorities; it being a felony not to do so. The perpetrator wasn’t the least bit remorseful and the conversation went on for over an hour and a half. He alleged the foul deed was committed in a darkened room, and that the child therefore, was unable to indentify her attacker. The crime was decades in the past, but the punishment of the innocent man he framed and blamed was still happening – mobilized and following the unknowingly accused man, by way of a traveling, ever increasing rumor, which enjoyed a lot of success, because the rumor-talk-stalked individual was an itinerant custom jewelry maker and salesman, whose business route was traced from his photo-copied address and phone book. Hence, all of his (dozens of) consignment-buyer contacts were reached by telephone and convincingly admonished that the so called ‘target’, was not trustworthy with children, and many other more glibly detailed prefabrications and character assassinations to reinforce that demonizing effect. Although a lot of these conspicuously anonymous and suspicious reports were rebutted out of hand, many were taken seriously. In such cases, the result was that the vacant accusation was passed on to what amounted to scores of customers who bought-from and socialized-with the telephone contacted consignment dealers. (This was before LED accountability on telephones.) That is to say, the mendacious ‘rumor’ was highly contagious (reinforced with the incentive of ‘protecting children’), and literally followed the ‘targeted’ man, not only from consignment buyer to consignment buyer, but also, from town to town. The originator of this bizarre social dynamic was boastful in the telling of it; speaking of numerous reports that had come back to him, describing many humiliating and punitive occasions that had been imposed upon the subjected victim. He had a life long history of sadomasochistic behavior and bold gambling with his life and the lives of others… What my ‘friend’ didn’t know, was, I was audio-taping the entire conversation. I had copies made of the original audio recording and placed them in the custody of several local, state and federal authorities: voice identification equaling fingerprints. Years later I sent the ‘suspect’ a written transcript of the conversation, which, of course, he recognized was indeed, a verbatim report of what we talked about. A few months later he was about to go to trial under multiple charges of pedophilia and several counts of extortion and embezzlement. Instead, he shot himself. Shortly thereafter, his wife died of a heart attack. The subjected suicide was a graduate MBA, LLB, Computer Engineer and Electronics Engineer. According to his own allegations, he was also a ‘former’ if not ‘incumbent’ member of ‘the intelligence community’... (Google: ‘Aquino’, and ‘San Francisco Presidio Army Fort, rogue CIA pedophile cult’ – which made international news, as the Google references will authenticate. The herein issued perpetrator, with many others, escaped identification, was deeply entrenched in this activity.) His summary demise has left a lot of marooned, residual accessories in his terminated wake – people who participated in mobilizing and adding to the ‘rumor’ (consisting of a palpable history of codified, double talking jargon and under the table – as well as some overtly measurable – actions, accusations and permutations). Most – but not all – former (and incumbent) participants and accessories (hundreds of them) cannot be legally proved as accountable, but, some of them, on the other hand, committed themselves to contributing so aggressively as to clearly and repeatedly reveal their identities and, most importantly, their culpable intentions and actions. One of the recipients of the subjected audio-tape transcripts (and a partial list of participants) was then-Congressmen, Leon E. Panetta, of the 17th fedral district; went on to become White House Chief of Staff, under the first term of the Clinton administration. Mr. Panetta is the currently appointed C.I.A. Director, under the Obama administration. The consequences of my having taken the described actions to resolve the dilemma, has not by any means, entirely resolved the quandary or provided ‘closure’, as one might expect. Instead, the rumor mongers were bitterly disappointed that the man they had for so long projected so much guilt upon, proved out to be innocent. Moreover, there was no relief or gratitude extended to me for patently establishing that fact in the afore-described manner. No indeed, there are still small but active groups and sects who have in effect, transposed the blaming and punishment activities that were previously targeting the instigator’s irrelevant stepfather, on to myself. The remainder of the hold-outs (none of whom have witnessed the forensic audiotapes, and only some of whom have read – and hastily rejected - the described transcripts, which were publicized on – and then promptly hacked off – the internet) are apparently unable to realize and come to terms with the fact that they were solemnly ‘mistaken’ (- in effect, being guilty of what they alleged someone else as being), have instead chosen to regroup and carry their former (conformist aggression bonded) beliefs and actions to this record. In so doing, they have further extended the criminal objective of the original perpetrator, into an expansive collaboration which approaches, if not fulfills, the legal definition for conspiracy; under special circumstances. Regarding social dynamics, it is an academically established fact that no rumor can be entirely obliterated – rumors and fabrications live on, in reluctantly vanquished people who originally conducted and maintained them. On the other hand, the proven way to deal with rumors is to publish them, revealing them for what they are, with information that exposes and patently transcends them: hence the (continuing) publication of this report. Having acted out their own legacy, the assailants continue to figuratively punch and kick the metaphorical tar-baby, consequently extending their own sticky dilemma ( To be continued ) ------------------------------- Re: THE MALICIOUS ABUSE OF INNOCENCE Pt II -------------------------------------------------------------- 4.14.2009 The McMartin Preschool Trial: A Modern Witch Hunt It all started in 1983 when a mother accused a teacher at the school of sodomizing her son, as well as stabbing him in the eye with scissors. Following these accusations, came more bizarre ones such as bestiality and Satan worship. The mother was later diagnosed as a paranoid schizophrenic and died of alcoholism in 1986. Unfortunately, Satanic-Panic kicked in and a full blown investigation was made. The investigation cost a reported one million dollars and included a trip to Europe based on a rumor that the 'cult' was operating with a 'cult' in England. As the investigation continued more and more children and parents jumped on the bandwagon and claimed that they too were victims. The accusations grew absurd. Among the allegations: Children were flushed down toilets into underground tunnels in order to participate in Satanic rituals as well as be sexually molested. (Later being cleaned up and returned above ground via trap-doors.) Children were taken on hot-air balloon rides with the Satanists Children claimed a teacher at the school could fly, and that they witnessed him flying. Actor Chuck Norris was one of the Satanists who abused them. The case went to court and a whopping sum of 15 million dollars was spent. Ultimately all of the charges were dismissed. Even to this day there are individuals who refuse to accept the fact that the accusations were false. There are also individuals falsely spreading rumors about 'tunnels' being found under the school, just as the children reported. Such rumors are completely wrong. Several searches were carried out and no evidence for the existence of secret tunnels was ever found. The events of the McMartin Trial later inspired the HBO movie, 'Indictment: The McMartin Trial'. The McMartin Preschool Trial http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/McMartin_preschool_trial McMartin Ritual Abuse Case http://www.religioustolerance.org/ra_mcmar.htm Addendum: Pay close attention to the above link. The children accused a teacher of 'stabbing a sea turtle' in order to frighten them into silence. A sea turtle corpse was indeed found on the property but tests run on it indicated that it had sand in the shell that did not match the surrounding soil, i.e. it was planted at the scene. On top of this the children accused a teacher of having sex with and then later killing a giraffe. Notice the similarity to another case? -In the Akiki trial, children also accused Dale Akiki of sacrificing a giraffe. A giraffe is not a common animal and most people do not have access to these creatures. It seems, at least to me, that adults were deliberately planting these suggestions in the minds of the children. Also of note, the whole 'tunnel' thing may have originated in England. Modern 'Satanic Panic' originated in the U.S. and then migrated to England. According to the links above, there was a well known case in England where children claimed they were abused in 'secret tunnels'. No evidence for any tunnels was ever found. To me, it definitely reeks of adults feeding information to children as well as a transference from the Satanic-Panickers in England.] The Underground 'Tunnels' Of The McMartin Preschool http://www.religioustolerance.org/tunnels.htm Posted by BoyintheMachine at 5:41 PM ------------------------------------------------------------ The McMartin Preschool Trials by Douglas Linder © 2003 "They're putting on witnesses who they know are lying.

  11. Neutralizing the 'F' word: at 'Fork University'. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The two combined words - 'F U!'; as they are expressed in anger or derision, are in fact the most used insult projected in the American idiomatic language. On the other hand, the 'term' is rarely addressed in an objective, unemotional, academic manner, where and when clear heads and emotions prevail. Instead, the (often exclamatory) 'expression' generally succeeds in clearing an abruptly silent passage for itself, that conspicuously cuts through any discussion of it's intrusive motivation, import, or the fact that it is a principal instrument of the 'rape mentality' (As one thinks, so one may speak, so one may act out: 'F U' - the imposition of sex, where it is not welcome or does not belong). This note is to remind the reader that it is the academic objective of Fork University to accumulate as many staffers and faculty members as possible, to subdue - and expose - the 'shock:eek: value' of the issued - woman hating - (male castrating) epithet, by a method of communication, approximating or surpassing the one that is imparted herein. Contributions to this objective are requested and greatly appreciated. Merged post follows: Consecutive posts mergedHaving posted the preceding message at another forum, a (female) moderator inserted the following commentary: "Important even obvious questions: What is this thread about? And what contributions are being requested?" (the fact that she asks, demonstrates how far removed she is from the glaring - nationally epidemic - problem at issue...) I responded: This thread hopefully alludes to be the beginning of a series of communication trends for reducing or nullifying altogether the most practiced method of projecting or otherwise imposing 'shock' (often from considerable distance, and anonymously) into conventional communications; especially among people in public places like a coffee shop, or restaurant, or waiting in line for a movie, etceteras. Hearing the issued epithet (and what it really means) hurled from the open window of a passing car, for example, is an everyday American experience. The perpetrator is rewarded by the loathing he induces in everyone within earshot. The subjected verbal explosion - upon it's typically abrupt interruption - often paralyzes people in mid sentence (When women exhibit this kind of behavior they are emulating amok male values). Upon recovering from the stupefying verbal attack, effected people characteristically ask, 'Why do people do things like that?' Whereas, the demystification of the motive - 'to stun people, often in the company of children' - is not generally understood for what it is. It isn't usually talked about, except on the occasions when the anti-social bomb is hurled. The flagrant perpetrator is perceived as an inscrutable 'magician' of some kind, rather than the desperately impotent wielder of the cheapest shot in the idiomatic English language. The request for 'contributions' to this thread is a petition for others to express - to calmly talk about - their perceptions of this national phenomen, with the hope that a better public understanding of the disparaging epithet will contribute toward a dilution of its toxicity, and thereby reduce the exposed practitioner's motive for that kind of behavior. The most fundamental and powerful language of the rape mentality is in high profile here: the most used verbal insult being directly related to the fastest growing violent domestic and street crime in the nation, namely the physical abuse of women and children - including rape - by male assailants. Merged post follows: Consecutive posts mergedWell, whenever my six year-old daughter asks, "Why is **** a bad word?" or something like that, I tell her, "Because someone, somewhere wants to be offended by it." The reality is that even if you manage to strike all the profane words from the language, people will invent new ones. And that doesn't just include the potty-mouths. Rather, the people who most need profane words in the language are those who are offended by them. That is, they will find something to be offended by. To paraphrase the great Ozzy Osbourne, one of the wonderful things about America is that you have the right to get pissed off. And people have certainly seized that right. Although he might have said that after people got upset that he urinated on the Alamo. Merged post follows: Consecutive posts mergedThis is not an exemplary case of the random selection of a profane word by which an argument such as yours may be tractably presented. The word '****', bereft of a negative context, might even have a positive and/or loving inflection - as you exemplify in your reflection of it's innocent usage by your six year old daughter. On the other hand, when that positive and loving intonation and usage is transposited into a destructive intent and denigrating context, it no longer compliments the act which it alludes to, but, rather, insolently insults and contemptuously defiles it. To project the innocent option inherent to the word, in a context of anger and insult, is to turn the word and its meaning upside down and backwards; to very deliberately and insidiously make the word 'bad'... Take note that your exemplified six year old daughter had already, somehow, been educated to the fact that the word was 'bad', and asked why. She didn't learn that from listening to loving talk and gesture, which is indeed, where the word - philologically speaking - originated. Constructing a defensive argument against the herein qualified 'misusage' of the word and its - rape mentality supporting - connotations, is a distinctive form of 'blaming the victim (an American recreation)'. 'People will always find something to be offended by' , is an irrelavant pretext, finding 'people' responsible for the responsibility of others (refer, 'blaming the victim').
  12. As of 11/6/09, the Army psychiatrist, Nidal Malik Hason, has not only killed and wounded dozens of people at Fort Hood, Texas Army Base, he has cast another ominous shadow on what was already - since 9/11 - a very controversial issue; reintroducing fragile questions, including religious undertones - as they relate to (well intended and otherwise motivated) Muslims in America, and activating questions regarding America's motive(s) for armed presence in the Middle East. Very unfortunately, this appears to be a pejorative problem, for which there is no easy solution. Vets and apolitical citizens are being blamed - and are suffering and dying for - questionable executive policy. The unreliably reported lessons of Vietnam, and the failed - eight year - Russian Expedition into Afghanistan enter this foreboding incumbency. Constitutionally fortified issues of Free Speech are being compromised - displaced with citizen fear of government (and qualified elements of the 'Homeland Security' and 'Patriot' acts: which nullify the former requirement for a judge's order to tap telephones, and void 'due cause' for satellite reconnaissance directed upon law abiding citizens. Rogue gvt. did obtain these constitutional transgressions by way of the occurrence of the World Trade Center attacks ). Excersizing fundamental American Principles of Free Speech has evolved into grounds for suspicion of 'terrorism'. The cost and consequences of American Armed Forces in the Middle East is escalating on many fronts which are a challenge to American Constitutional mainstays and domestic tranquility. Caveat: America cannot be conquered from the outside, but, she can - and may - be compromised from within. I very sincerely hope I am wrong about this, but, I think we are far from seeing the resolve of this convuluted dilemma. I am an American born veteran, sworn to defend the Constitution of the United States from all her enemies, be they foreign or domestic, whomsoever. Incidentally, I wish to emphasize here, that I consider violent revolution to be counter revolutionary. I believe that the - overdue - revolution should, and will, occur, on a platform of liberated - and responsible - communication.

  13. The first Doppler redshift was described in 1848 by French physicist Armand-Hippolyte-Louis Fizeau, who pointed to the shift in spectral lines seen in stars as being due to the Doppler effect. The effect is sometimes called the "Doppler-Fizeau effect". In 1868, British astronomer William Huggins was the first to determine the velocity of a star moving away from the Earth by this method.[7] In 1871, optical redshift was confirmed when the phenomenon was observed in Fraunhofer lines using solar rotation, about 0.1 Å in the red.[8] In 1901 Aristarkh Belopolsky verified optical redshift in the laboratory using a system of rotating mirrors Source: Google, 'stars, redshift'.

  15. How I Became World's #1 Einstein Groupie by K. B. Robertson A Brief History of a Series of Discoveries (If this factual report reads sort'a like a fairy tale, it's likely because in many - if metaphorical - ways, that's what it is.) In the experience of this author there are two histories of the evolution of physics. The objective history that was established by the men and women who contributed to it’s progressive evolution, and the subjective history of this author’s learning of that evolution and then recognizing and authenticating an unprecedented statement - previously proven but continuingly unrecognized on the foundations of physical science. Discovering that Newton’s gravity is Einstein’s 4-dimensional space time continuum did not happen in premeditation, or all at once, or in any given flash of insight, but rather through a process of learning, motivated by what at first was no more than mild curiosity. ‘What is gravity?’ I was fourteen years old and had no idea that, in pursuing the answer to this question, I was about to embark on what would become the main course in my life’s work. Confident that I could learn the answer in a fairly short period of time, through research of standard information sources. In referencing several encyclopedias and other resource materials I slowly became aware that there was no comprehensive answer to that question (‘What is gravity?’). There is voluminous and impressive information on the effects of gravity (‘the unidentified Force’ - ‘F’) - what it does... But the question of what gravity is - what causes it - remains a popularly pursued - until now, unresolved - mystery. Newton literally invented The Calculus, to enable him to measure acceleration, parabolic arcs and many other effects of gravity, but, there is only a gathering data base of speculations (some of which in the past 30 or so years have evolved into a trend of unscientific inquiry and unscientific representation) of it’s causal identity. The causal identity of gravity is no less mysterious now than it has been through the ages of scientific inquiry. My first discovery about gravity was that no one has ever known what it is; only what it does... That was of itself interesting, and in the words of Barbara Lovett Cline (THE MEN WHO MADE A NEW PHYSICS), ‘I wanted to know more.’ The recently learned fact that no one knows or has ever known what gravity is, allowed me to think that even an amateur such as myself might have as much business researching it as anyone else. Curiosity about gravity was further refurbished when I learned of Galileo’s experiments with descending objects, released from the same height at the same time - when he found the unexpected result that, regardless of the mass values (size, density, weight) of objects, they all descend at the same rate of acceleration and strike the ground, when dropped from the same height at the same time. Before Galileo’s findings, it had been presumed since Aristotle and before, that the heavier a given object, the faster it descends in free fall. Not true. The record already had some knowledge of Newton’s Laws of gravity, one of which states that the greater mass value - the heavier - a given object, the more gravitational impelling force (presumed to be a force of ‘attraction’ ; unidentified, but said ‘not’ to be ‘magnetism’ or ‘electricity’) it possesses. It follows by this law that when a small stone is dropped alongside of a boulder sized stone, the latter should fall faster and strike the ground sooner than the smaller stone (released from the same height at the same time - esp. in the absence of air resistance <a feather and a cannon ball, in the absence of air resistance, descend at exactly the same rate, measured to concurrence beyond a billionth of a second; in scientifically documented searches for the anticipated difference in descent rates - not finding it, down to and beyond the measure of a nanosecond>...). According to Newton’s law as applied to this consideration, there ‘should’ be a greater mutual attraction between the larger stone and the earth, than between the smaller stone and the earth, and therefore the larger - heavier - stone ‘should’ fall faster. It doesn’t. (The popular but incorrect ‘explanation’ that ‘negative inertial resistance’ inversely corresponds to the ‘pull’ of gravity and exactly cancels out what would otherwise be an increased descent rate for the heavier object, is well marked, by Einstein and many others, as an inadequate, false explanation.) That fact intrigued me and led me to pursue further studies. I was aware that much of Einstein’s work was about Newton’s gravity; did not pursue Newton’s or Einstein’s mathematical work on gravity because my knowledge of that subject (mathematics) was (and remains) extremely limited. At age seventeen I conjured up what seemed to be a radical and unlikely explanation for why all objects descend at the same rate of acceleration. It did explain why this happened, but the explanation required that the entire earth’s surface be constantly rising up, creating the illusion of falling objects; causing them to appear to fall: at the same rate of acceleration. In this apparently ‘unlikely’ scenario, the unexplained identical rates of descent for the test objects was ‘explained’, ‘because’ the earth’s surface was rising up and overtaking the apparently falling objects... I had no good reason at that time for attributing the required expansion to the earth. Had very limited knowledge (of what is scientifically known) of the ‘building blocks of the universe’ - electrons, neutrons and protons; that they are called ‘particles’, which are in fact unexpectedly found and consistently proved to be 'charges of electricity, without distinct surfaces.' Since the sub-atomic ‘electric charge’ has a mass value (opposes resistance to acceleration proportionate to its mass value <‘weight’>), and, demands three dimensions of space to its <perceived> finitely located self): it is called a ‘particle’; rigidly conceptualized as ‘billiard ball’ like, having a distinct surface, separating its perceived finite boundaries, making it ‘discontinuous’ - from the space surrounding it - like any and all other material entities; as they are colloquially experienced and consequently conceptualized. Refer: ‘particle theory’ (is not really a theory, but rather an ‘hypothesis’, since the so called particle has yet to be confirmed on the foundations of modern physical science...) Had only heard of the 4th Dimension as Einstein introduced and then others described it - had no knowledge of it. Did not know of or associate any of those realities with the absurd explanation I had for the descent of free falling objects. It was more a lark than a serious consideration: OBVIOUSLY THE EARTH IS NOT - AND ALL OTHER PHYSICAL ENTITIES IN THE UNIVERSE ARE NOT - EXPANDING. I had arrived at what I did not recognize then as being a historically crowded metaphorical precipice, and I had made the same rejection everyone else had, who had arrived there - unbeknownst to me at that time. There was a perfectly functional if metaphorical DaVinci donated hang-glider waiting for anyone who cared to fly with it (the elaborately proven, consistently rejected and denied fact that universal matter at large is a constantly expanding four dimensional field), and for quite some time I stood there at that crowded precipice, looking at the new fangled, completely untested solution, and then glanced down the cliff that everyone there had pulled up short on... I went about the objective of disproving this incredible (even ‘ridiculous’) idea that all of the material earth - and consequently, the thereby obliged physical universe of space and matter - was constantly expanding. I was sure it was wrong. Had to be wrong. I would not fly off that cliff, even though I knew, that new fangled thing just might after all fly. I didn’t ‘believe’ it (Yet). How, after all, for example, could something like this be ‘going on’, (the entire physical universe as well as the spaces between the ‘particles’, is constantly expanding, ever faster..). without it having been previously observed and proven - by people much more talented and skilled than myself? There is the apparently patent fact that anyone can see for themselves at any time and in any place, that the physical environment - everything - at issue here: (‘Obviously’)‘isn’t expanding’... ("Avoid the hazard of thinking you understand something, that you don’t really understand" - Robert Pursig, Paraphrased, ZEN & THE ART OF MOTORCYCLE MAINTENANCE.) Such misunderstandings result in ‘gridlock’, disallowing any possibility of resolution, since whatever the problem or misunderstanding may be, it is not recognized as such, and is therefore not dealt with. ‘Gridlock’. The ‘incredible’ premise (that all of physical reality is constantly expanding ever faster) did ‘solve’ the problem of the universal descent rate of all free falling objects. But it certainly appeared to present a lot more problems than it did solutions. The more Yours Truly circumspected the problem and the more widened the contingent issues became, the more I began to realize that for all of its ‘incredible’ contingencies, the idea that the entire physical - as well as spatial - universe was expanding, was supported - generously - on the foundations of contemporary and historical physics. But the glitch was: when the prevailing reality emerged in the experimental laboratory; often with mathematical confirmations, it seemed, I was learning, to be consistently rejected out of hand; always on the misguided (though certainly understandable) premise that ‘obviously, universal matter - every physical entity in your environment including yourself - is not in a perpetual state of constant expansion... ‘Anyone can see, after all, that no such expansion prevails.' However stubbornly it may appear, in however many differently proven ways, in the internationally recorded laboratory... I continued to refuse to test the new fangled (certified ‘untested’ and ‘disqualified’) thing-a-ma-jigee (with wings), and jump off the metaphorical precipice, and fly. Sure would look foolish going splash in the imagined, forgiving ocean down there and flightlessly swimming ashore. Of course it wouldn’t fly. If it was meant to fly, someone much more knowledgeable than myself, surely would have gotten off the ground with it by now... 'Obviously matter is not a constantly expanding field, because, if it was, by now everything would have spread out indefinitely... ' If everything in the physical universe is expanding , caused by the ever expanding neutrons, protons, electrons, mesons, charms, strangeness and quarks, etceteras (atomic and subatomic particles large and small): then I can fly. So of course I couldn’t fly. Dragging my obviously non aerodynamic caboose on the ground. A swanless ugly duckling bon mot: for sure... Just wanted to make sure that I really couldn’t fly, so I delved further into the stubbornly ascending matter, as it were... (An airborne gliding swan - formerly an ugly duckling - dipped it’s wings over my head, approximately. That is to say, there were benevolent counter signs, discouraging abandonment of the ugly duckling and White Elephant apparent... I had already read that a host of internationally distinguished mathematicians had 'proven', repeatedly and diversely, that 'it is impossible for a bumblebee to fly.' It was before the great Ken Kesey wrote, SOMETIMES A GREAT NOTION.) I began to discover more about this ‘incredible notion’ (Including the ocean motion?) It also resolved other dissolute and importantly unresolved issues in physical science. The relativistic contraction of physical masses in the direction of their motion at increasing rates of contraction proportional to their velocity, could be attributed to ‘Doppler effect’: if matter was an expanding field... Since Einstein proved that matter does in fact behave that way, doesn't that also prove that matter is an expanding field? But that was, once again, against the well established rules of rejection on this very ('obscure') issue... 'Anyone can see, after all, that universal matter is not expanding...' Advancing plateaus of recognition and realization, celebrating the learning of the hard work of dedicated scientists when they compulsively dismissed the results of what they called ‘null experiments’ - the first such celebration on my part being when I learned that Roland Von Eotvos went meticulously looking for a difference in descent rates between heavier and lighter objects in descent and couldn’t find any difference at all, down to a billionth part of a second. That is somber (though incomplete) evidence that the earth is rising up to meet the apparently falling objects. Einstein's ‘time dilation’ could likewise be explained for the same reason. Relativistic ‘non-absolute space and time’ - ‘space-time’, could likewise be accounted for (An enlarging hierarchy of multi-moment space-times interminably arriving from the past into the present and projecting toward the future). All these unprecedented functionally founded concepts - and previously unexplained phenomena - were being imaginatively accommodated, and explained, on the basis of the same singular premise - that physical matter itself is a constantly (ever faster) expanding; accelerating field: ’the mass field’, I began to call it. Though I was still sure that there must be something about it I didn’t understand - that others did - that disqualified it. Looking at the implied, metaphorically winged flying machine a little more seriously now, still afraid of being embarrassed in front of all those people who had for so long made camp on that cliff and Knew Better than to try to fly (with the provided resources as they understood them). Oh yes. I knew the story of Icarus flying too close to the sun - the wax binding keeping his home made feathered wings together, being melted by the sun, because Icarus tried to fly too high. Bitter-sweetly marooned with the idea that I may have happened into a major discovery of literally astronomical proportions. Certainly an inspiring thought, but I dared not take it - or myself - too seriously. Yet, the more I researched to disqualify it (this graduated at times into frantic searches, desperate hunts for disqualification, because I wanted this White Elephant off my back), the more information gathered tended to support rather than disqualify - I did not fear any disqualification I was hoping to find; it would put away the otherwise increasingly accumulating evidence that I was on to something very important. With regard to 'belief systems', it was very difficult for me to believe that no one else had come up with this before, and that there must be a very good reason or series of good reasons for why it was just as untenable as it appeared to be at first consideration... Future research would reveal that others had indeed preceded myself (as documented herein), but not by the same avenues and invariably abandoning their incomplete research on the understandable but incorrect premise that, 'obviously, the physical universe is not constantly expanding (also as documented herein).' At age seventeen, in mid 1958, I joined the military while continuing my research. The EuroAmerican, transcultural CRACKERJACK (And precipitous Morton salt) GrecoRoman Odyssey It was not scientific or inspiring (at first) to be sitting in a Neapolitan restaurant thousands of miles from the North American continent seeing a ‘foreigner’ who didn’t speak much English enjoying a box of Yankee Crackerjack. Anyone could easily wonder at the incongruity of it, after all. As I was saying it was not the usual stuff of conventional or even metaphysical science, to see the answer I was looking for, in or upon a box of Crackerjack, in the lovely hands of a Neapolitan native in a restaurant full of Italian people and Italian made everything, especially food. But this did happen, under those circumstances. Of course my most logical and reasonable facilities told me I might have been pushing this projected hobby horse, as it were, a little too far into the parameters of - perhaps even laughable - improbability. Spending too many late hours at the emerged, ad hoc, amateur’s (he or she who loves his or her work) office. More about alternately losing and finding myself in the (ho hum) artwork on a box of gringo Crackerjack in Italy, in a moment... Disqualification would resolve the increasingly unresolved issue and would have been (and still would be) an unburdening... As it was going, I dwelled in the shifting nether-realm of alternately thinking myself a vain imbecile and maybe a major contributor to the evolution of physical science. Just before age eighteen I was gifted a copy of Einstein’s IDEAS & OPINIONS. I nearly - politely - balked the offering, because although I was aware that Einstein’s work dealt with gravity and light - the subjects I was interested and pursuing studies in, I was intimidated by and impotent in mathematics, especially the high order mathematics that I knew Einstein, and Newton, and many others worked in. As things developed it is likely that, had I been skilled in mathematics I may never have carried through with this unprecedented non-mathematical interpretation of what is for the most part well accounted for in mathematical formulations which have distanced the mathematical innovators from a conceptually comprehensive understanding of what their (metric) mathematics are describing and/or confirming. There is not so much a need for more mathematics here, as there is a need to understand what the mathematics, mean (Exactly what are the qualified mathematical formulae correctly and accurately describing? Segue to my unforeseen appearance upon the well lighted proscenium?)... But as I read Einstein’s work as it was presented in the second half of that book (IDEAS & OPINIONS: Contributions To Science), I recognized that the issues he was dealing with in that particular book, were not so much presented mathematically, and what was being explained non-mathematically (by Einstein), seemed to remarkably parallel the ideas I had been independently developing, or, I should say that my ideas remarkably paralleled his. This instilled more confidence that the apparently absurd notion that the entire physical universe is expanding, was not absurd or ridiculous at all. On the contrary, it seemed - with some exceptions - to be exactly what Einstein was describing, though he didn’t quite specifically and non-mathematically proclaim the physical universe to be expanding, he certainly - characteristically and elaborately - allowed for that possibility, and from what I’ve since been told and learned of his mathematics, they seem to patently prove a physically as well as spatially expanding universe. This was an extremely humbling, and equally encouraging, uplifting experience... (On more escalating elevators than one?) By age twenty I had gone through a series of cycles where it appeared to be an untenable idea and then was redeemed by further thought and research, until I was obliged to realize that until if and when someone or authority could show me what was wrong with this system of thinking, it was not only as good as the existing status quo in physics - it was better. It explained more otherwise unexplained major mysteries - not piecemeal, but rather consistently, with the same over all generalization: physical matter is a constantly - ever faster - expanding field. This author eventually realized that it was not any contradiction of the Law of Conservation of Mass Energy. It was the same amount of energy, increasingly distributed over a greater area, in accordance with the law of the inverse square. Could not explain ‘why’ universal matter was expanding, but I was gathering more and more sobering reasons to consider that it was in fact doing so, and that the collective mass of the earth was expanding at 32 feet per second, per second... The descent rate of free-falling objects on earth (descent rates vary correspondingly, in accordance for the most part with Newton's revelations. In this consideration there seems to be an abundance of crudely unfinished thoughts alleging to 'contradict' the 'universal - accelerating - rate of descent of object's in free fall. That truism includes the appendage: 'In the absence of air resistance', while, a remarkable number of would be arguments continue to emerge in subjections of 'terminal velocity', which, in earth's atmosphere, is about 120 m.p.h. - as fast as free falling objects descend, not accelerating furthermore simply because air resistance disallows an accurate observation or experience of the acceleration at point here. This 'contradiction', and the commonplace 'argumentive' employment of it <including orbital velocity ballistics>, provide a notable insight into how many weekend physics wizards are not at all qualified to do anything but read and listen a lot and remain silent for long periods of time with a corresponding 'attention span' - another boldy diminishing discipline, often worn as some sort of meritorious trait, rather than the mark of rank - 'uppity' - freshmen). Einstein makes a very big deal out of it (the coincidental' equivalence of heavy and inertial mass values - observed in the 'universal rate of descent'). Calls it ‘an astonishing coincidence’. The whole world has been talking and wondering about it - the ensuing General Principle Of Relativity, equating the unidentified force of gravity with acceleration - ever since... Much important help was gifted to this author - by a certain Neapolitan Guppy and her friends - in the early and critical stages of researching and developing this superlative and unprecedented non mathematical translation of Einstein’s greatest achievements - The Special & General Theories of Relativity; leading to the Unified Field Theory. This work probably would never have been completed, were it not for a reclused woman and her friends. This woman’s name is Mara Benevida; she and many of her friends are as responsible for the initial rough draft writing of Gravity Is The 4th Dimension (Einstein’s abandoned U.F. reinstated w’out mathematics) as this author. Speaking of retrieval, there is a print-painting of a terrier looking dog with a sailor boy on a box of Crackerjack, holding an inevitably smaller box of Crackerjack, upon which is printed another image of what appears to be the same dog beside another - looks like the same - sailor, only smaller; holding yet another box of Crackerjack; with what would seem has a printed painting of another dog beside another sailor holding a yet smaller box of Crackerjack and so on... It seemed to go on forever, if the pictures could somehow be made ever smaller and still exist, as the visibly descending and/or ascending sequence of images certainly suggests... Geometrically squared rectangular boxes of heirarchically parallel and orthogonal Crackerjack containers and icons, out of infinite smallness proceeding to infinite largeness. Si. Nirvana in the guise of Nut city. (It took a while to learn the difference?) Called me ‘Seahorse’ on the day we met. Gave me an English translated copy of Einstein's 'Ideas & Opinions'. She started it. Seahorse spots the ‘displaced’ box of Crackerjack and begins to see in it’s familiar artwork graphics what he will eventually recognize as an important representation of Einstein’s Unified Field without mathematics. Multi-moment space-time. An ensemble of constantly enlarging systems... Ready or not teleported to a place no different than and identical to all the places and times he’s ever known, a day like any other day, only Crackerjack boxes are now showing up in Italy with New World Icons of an ever enlarging - and ever diminishing - blue & white terrier dog with a blue and white sailor boy holding a red striped box of Crackerjack with the image of a Sailor with a Terrier dog, would never again be the same with or without punctuation... Pensive studies widened, more light was let in. Wisdom and knowledge proving once again, like gold, to be where you find it. Who said the ever-smaller sequenced pictures - smaller or larger, past, present & future - had to ‘end’, ever? If the atoms of the universe of the past got ever smaller and the atoms of the universe of the present got ever larger and the painter or printer passed his job on from one generation to the next, where was the ‘end’ of the illustrated hierarchy of images - the multi-moment space-time ensemble of differently sized pictures of the same dog and sailor boy holding a box of Crackerjack with a picture of himself and his dog on it? Same thing happens on a cylindrical container of MORTON salt, the byword of which is ‘When it rains, it pours." Meaning that humidity or dampness in the air does not prevent the salt from being smoothly dispensed from the container, or whatever shaker it may be contained by. The pictorial logo on this dark blue colored, cylindrically shaped package is a little girl in a yellow skirt, walking in the rain, holding an open umbrella over her head with her right hand; with a container of MORTON salt, pouring out of the metal spout cradled in and under her left hand and arm; upon which is the same pictorial; and so on; squared - same as the CRACKERJACK. (Since then we’ve noticed elsewhere,"Land O Lakes" butter and dairy products 'Where goodness begins'. It's an icon of a beautiful young Native American woman perched on a lake backgrounded - presumably Minnesota - mound of grass, offering a sample of the product - in this case, a pound of butter upon which she is the labeled icon; squared. It doesn't look like the Land O Lakes anecdote of 'Where goodness begins' has any explanation of where it ends... Yes. The same thematically endless heirarchy as the multi-moment 4-D MORTON salt icon - 'When it rains (water) it (Morton salt, still) pours', and, the CrackerJack Sailor - squared.) There were too many truly fantastic coincidences, Einstein was caught up in a similar imbroglio, only it was in Switzerland, just northwest of where all this cartoon compounded dilemma was unfolding and back in the early 20th century. Too many (large and small?) coincidences, as said by some critics of Leo Tolstoy’s WAR & PEACE. Even Mara Mare was too much like Natasha in that same eloquent but redoubtable story (though there were differences?) You know, optionally salted peanuts, popcorn, and that sort of thing... Way too catering to all things theatrical if not thespian. Even that rhymes too much. It was all too aerodynamically flocking much. How could anyone tell someone else about a thing like this...? The scientific status quo has an understandable resistance to any alternative interpretations of what is - as well as what is not - known First began learning when I told the young prodigy who started it all by retrieving the pointed out aquarium quarry - the sobriquet 'Sea horse' with which Mara launched and made the formerly grounded idea airborne. He, in turn, told her what it did for him. She understood and told other people about it, in several different languages. It was more confusing at that time, than this presently unfolding description of the tangled woofs and warps... The Crackerjack box as gift to a friend was a conscious and well humored philosophical wink and salute to and/or about her new sailor boy friend. Mare didn’t anticipate the 4-dimensional dynamic that went with the sweet offering to her (nameless Mirage) friend, any more than had the foil for her lark, but the joined pair of bon vivants crisply caught and went on to field the expansive idea splendidly, with a lot of help from their friends. Certainly and emphatically including Caryn Frances Hersberg Robertson (who consistently underestimates and understates the importance of her inspirational and pragmatic contributions to the better and best portions of this work), without whom this author would never have found the inspiration or encouragement to pursue and write this narrative documentary. Other names were added to the originally dubbed ‘seahorse’, including ‘Americano Marino Maverick’. Mare eventually got around to calling her seahorse, ‘bumblebee’ also, as though the prevailing ambiance (Disneyland?) wasn't ethereally complicated enough... In the words of Galileo's proclamation against the inquisitional orders to disregard what was proven about the movement of the earth... "... still, it moves'. Say what you will mathematically of the flightless bumblebee - like Albert 'The Axe' Einstein's double bit Lambda: 'Still, it flies'. http://www.toequest.com/forum/toe-theory-articles/2516-total-field-theory-reinstatement-cosmological-constant-steady-state-theories.html?ltr=T http://forums.delphiforums.com/EinsteinGroupie There’s more to this 4, 5 & 6 dimensionally extended adventure, approximately replicated in BUTTERFLY, OWL & EAGLE: Athena Marie Prima (A Novel-Journal) - at http://forums.delphiforums.com/Waboose2; and http://forums.delphiforums.com/AegisofDragons on the menu of this forum. ___________________________________________ Epilogue ****************** “Man began speculating about atoms long before science became an organized activity Even to the ancient Greeks it appeared sensible to assume that there might be some kind of ultimate building blocks of matter... “Then, many centuries later, the great Isaac Newton concluded that matter was formed in ‘solid, massy, hard, impenetrable, moveable particles’ - in other words, the atom was something like a billiard ball. Newton’s idea (*of the described ‘particle’) was pure speculation.” - MATTER, p. 119, Life Science Library. The ‘billiard ball’ concept of ‘particle’ was more readily reinforced by direct, subjective experience, than was any objective concept of mysterious continuous forces generated by and emanating - action at a distance across space - from discontinuous particles and combined systems of particles; to influence other particles and systems of particles. - KBR “Magnetism, gravity, and action at-a-distance have not lost an iota of their baffling mystery since Gilbert (before Newton 1642 - 1726)” - Arthur Koestler, THE SLEEPWALKERS. "We no longer think that physical action is explainable in terms of little hard balls which are the centers of all kinds of forces. A much more abstract kind of concept is demanded in which the particle is no longer something which can be considered in isolation, but rather as a part of an all embracing entity called a 'field'. In this development, Einstein's thought construction played a vital role..." - Ibid "When events occur in 3-Dimensional Space it is not possible to draw an actual graph of 4-Dimensional space-time, but mathematicians have ways of handling such graphs without actually drawing them." - Martin Gardner, RELATIVITY FOR THE MILLION, p. 98 "The 4-Dimensional world of relativistic physics is the world where force and matter are unified; where matter can appear as discontinuous particles or as a continuous field. In these cases, however, we can no longer visualize the unity very well. Physicists can 'experience' the 4-Dimensional space-time world throughout the abstract mathematical formalism of their theories, but their visual imaginations - like everybody else's - is limited to the 3-Dimensional world of the senses. Our language and thought patterns have evolved in this 3-Dimensional world and therefore we find it extremely hard to deal with the 4-Dimensional reality of Relativistic Physics." - Fritjov Capra, THE TAO OF PHYSICS, P 150 "This concept is very difficult to visualize. It is a consequence of the 4-Dimensional space-time character of the sub-atomic world and neither our intuition nor our language can deal with this image very well." - Capra, THE TAO OF PHYSICS, p. 80 "In the General Theory of Relativity, the framework of the Special Theory is extended to include gravity. The effect of gravity, according to General Relativity, is to make space-time curved. This, again, is extremely hard to imagine. We can easily imagine a 3-Dimensionally curved surface, such as the surface of an egg. The meaning of the word 'curvature' for 2-Dimensional curved surfaces is thus quite clear; but when it comes to 3-Dimensional space - let alone 4-Dimensional space-time - our imagination abandons us. Since we cannot look at 3-Dimensional space 'from outside', we cannot imagine how it could be 'bent' in some direction." - Ibid, p. 173 "The reader is cautioned against concluding that time is an additional physical dimension in the sense that it can be seen and felt like a material object. No one in our universe can see in 4 Dimensions or more because of the way our universe is constructed." - James A. Coleman, RELATIVITY FOR THE LAYMAN, p. 69 "In 1916, Albert Einstein published his General Relativity, a mathematical theory of gravitation which replaced Newtonian concepts with abstractions so difficult that it took a decade even for most mathematicians to grasp them. The essence of Einstein's theory was that the presence of matter distorts space and makes it curve. The concept of space curvature stemmed from many dimensional, non-straight-line geometry created abstractly through equations. Just as a surface can curve in ordinary 3-Dimensional space, so in non-Euclidean geometry a 3-Dimensional space can itself curve in 4-dimensional space. No one can visualize such a curved space because humanity is not 4-Dimensional..." - LIFE Science Library, THE UNIVERSE, p. 179 __________________________________________________ _______________ "When Minkowski in 1908 demonstrated that Einstein's new theory was equivalent to a new geometrical approach uniting space and time in one singular entity (*4-D space-time), the voices for a 'physical' explanation for relativity fell silent, since it now became obvious that an explanation in physical (*Classical Newtonian Mechanical) terms cannot be given." - Cornelius Lanczos, ALBERT EINSTEIN & THE COSMIC WORLD ORDER DEVOTION: This work is dedicated to all who may constructively benefit from, add to, or (inevitably) improve upon it. Given the previously unrecognized academic foundations upon which it is based, disqualification is unlikely. Whereas, such event will inevitably contribute all the more to an improved understanding of the Universe At Large. A host of distinguished readers of nine previous editions have variously volunteered that even in the questionable consideration that the central and unprecedented conclusions herein are proved dissolute, the presentation of the history and evolution of the paramount problems in theoretical physics today, and the perspectives of them as provided herein, is an educationally important redemption of itself. Any errors herein are those of this author, whereas, the attributes of this work (besides the self apparent rank and file of scientific giants from whom this record inherited priceless knowledge and invaluable insights) would not have been written or published, were it not for the early support, information, encouragement and 1959 - 1962 dated, inspirational guidance of over a score of individuals - mostly Neapolitans. Most emphatically including a very American woman, the love of my life, this humbled record's overly modest wife. There are many other contributors, most of whom circumstance averted the identities of, all of whom will always have the ineffable gratitude of this record. - K. B.
