I strongly suggest you take a look at my paper, “Errors and Omissions in the CEM/EE Model,” which can be downloaded from http://www.cheniere.org/techpapers/CEM%20Errors%20-%20final%20paper%20complete%20w%20longer%20abstract4.doc . These errors have been pointed out by eminent scientists such as Feynman, Wheeler, Margenau, Bunge and many others. But the organized scientific community adamantly will not correct that horribly flawed electrical engineering model which contains such astonishing falsities, and has contained them for more than a century.
That is the real barrier to further progress in science. As a simple example, there are no force fields in space; never have been, never will be. Feynman points this out in his three volumes of sophomore physics (since 1964). Yet I doubt whether any electrical engineers have had it pointed out to them by their professors! So this means that no EE department, professor, or text even calculates the EM field as it actually exists in space, and never has. Instead, they calculate the force field reaction (created in charged matter by the ongoing interaction of that force-free EM field with the charges) in charged matter, and then state that this is the field in space! That’s substitution of an effect for the primary cause, and not even logical. And so on with the many other falsities we list in the paper.
Unfortunately we are also in the final phase of a world war, that we are at this point losing. It is an asymmetric war and therefore one that few Americans even understand or appreciate. We are very close to our destruction, and it is not even perceived or appreciated. So in our most recent book, Oblivion: America at the Brink, we laid out the nature of this threat, its background, the science on which the superweapons are based, and what is coming down on us very shortly. A part of the threat is so bizarre and against the ansatz of Western culture that our own scientists cannot even tolerate considering it. Several times in the past the U.S. has been close to its destruction in somewhat similar fashion, and a small friendly nation with the same powerful superweapons has saved our bacon each time. Once in the latter 70s, once in 1986, twice in 1997, and once at the end of 1999. Let’s hope they can do it once again. If not, then very little of this matters at this point.
Anyway, I’m hoping the small nation can do it once again, and that we still have a future. If so, then the younger fellows will hopefully be able to usher in cheap clean energy from the vacuum, long after old dogs like me are gone. First they will have to know and appreciate the errors that are maintained in the CEM/EE model. For EFTV purposes, the coup de grace was Lorentz’s arbitrary symmetrizing of the already severely limited Heaviside-Maxwell equations, thereby arbitrarily discarding all asymmetrical Maxwellian systems. Those, in fact, are the very systems that will do electro-gravity (using negative energy from the vacuum environment) and free energy electrical power systems (where the system receives and utilizes excess EM energy from its vacuum environment). If we would develop such systems, the first thing we must do is free our minds and system design from the constraints of the CEM/EE model, and move into a more comprehensive model in a higher group symmetry algebra.
