W&L has gone with Surface Plasmon Polariton (SPP) electrons. This is a mistake,they cannot do this because of the lack of energy density in the SPP, IMHO. The W&L theory must be totally revamped is they want to use SPPs as they should. Cheers: Axil On Sat, Apr 20, 2013 at 8:57 PM, Axil Axil <janap...@gmail.com> wrote: > NASA has screwed up bad.
