homemade electron beams and ion wind guns...

Take a look at this experiment:

 

 

What's making the crookes radiometer wheel turn?

Its behind a piece of glass. There's no way atoms

could be bouncing off of the pads inside of the

glass to turn the wheel. And its not getting

his by visual light photon from the gun?

 

 

Also, I've been hearing some strange rumors that

a certain group of unethical engineers have been going around

to different companies and secretly installing electron gun from

out of old CRT monitors behind walls as a form of harassment device. I realize

CRT normally have lead glass to shield out the harmful effects of xrays, etc...

but what if they cracked it open and made a new type of tube out of it...

first I was wondering if that could go through the walls...

I would swear there's some type of strange electronics sound in

the 15Hkz-20Khz in our building that would exactly match the line scan rate

of a an old CRT monitor... the sound feels like its physically pinging and vibrating

your body making it even more annoying than a normal a 15Hkz to 20Khz sound

that you might generate with a computer program and speaker.

Probably the same thing that made the aluminum wafer on the happy face turn: an electrostatic force. Charge will build up on the glass and induce charges to move on the vanes of the radiometer.
