Calculus BC, so I have a feeble understanding of math, if it was compared to 
HSG members of course. Any suggestions of where to start. I am poor so I cannot 
buy the books somone has already suggested, so I would apreciate some wordy 
websites that may be able to clear my confusion.

Ah, yes. You quoted me out of context, so my last reply was off topic. You 
see Niels Bohr, a very polite gentleman, would tell visitors with obviously 
incorrect (not to say lunatic) theories that their work was "interesting" in 
order not to give too much offense. In that sense RLMMD's work is 
"interesting."

If the "interesting" person persisted, Bohr was apt to respond that the 
person had "told us more than you realize."

ACS Pitch

The recent ACS pitch is at the BLP site under Tech Papers. There is new data on the PPC power converter and some
new data on the chemicals.

In message 4368, Peter Zimmerman wrote that he had always assumed that Mills 
had no proprietary interest in the HSG.

My understanding has been that Luther Setzer is the sole list owner, and that 
he, Steve Florek, and Paul Scott are the only persons with control over what 
gets posted to the HSG and what doesn't. Is that still true?

\/\/\ Of course I can think of other better explanations. Read Gamow's

Summary / Status of BLP Science?

Good morning,

I have been reading the back postings and researching BLP on the 
web. It does not appear that Dr. Mills' theories are anywhere near 
universally accepted yet.

That being said, has the BLP process been independently verified? 
What about independent verification of anomalous energy output?

I'm asking because I am curious if Dr. Mills' efforts will lead to a 
successful product and revision of physics in the future.

You may also email me privately at spam-tim <at> p.yahoo.invalid (remove spam-
).

Regards,

Tim Perdue

Lasetron Could Let Scientists See Into Atomic Nucleus

FYI

<http://unisci.com/stories/20022/0502024.htm>

I wonder what we will see when we look into the nucleus of an atom.

[Maybe a radioactivity clock. -SF]

Hi Harut,

Here are come sites you might like to check out:

http://www.treasure-troves.com/
http://www.cs.unb.ca/~alopez-o/math-faq/mathtext/math-faq.html

http://www2.corepower.com:8080/~relfaq/

http://www.webelements.com/

http://www.mathphysics.com/

This site has a math library as well as software you might find useful.
BTW - There is a fairly inexpensive student edition of the Mathematica software.

Re: Re: Science News - Exact Heisenberg Uncertainty

I doubt that anybody has done precisely those experiments, but in the years 
following Becquerel's discovery of radioactivity people certainly looked at 
decay curves of short-lived isotopes kept under different thermal, etc., 
conditions.

It was news article for heaven's sake. In any case I *have* read the paper in the arxiv.
See my previous post on the 30th if you need the link. It looks to be supportive of the
news article, and the info in the news article seems sufficient for back-of-the-envelope
level speculative reasoning. I'm afraid you can't discredit this one that easily.
