Your stated observations do not diminish the need for well planned experiments with appropriate controls. Thus far, I have yet to see any scientific rigour in your data.
In a past email, you stated that you manually set your detector going by setting a small weight at the end of a metallic strip in motion, and then you measure it somehow. Firstly, how do you control the variations in your own method of setting the weight in motion? ie the force and velocity applied by your finger. Secondly, you just stated that you have tried to detect it within different materials. Have you built these containers so large that you are sitting inside them when you set the detector in motion? If not, how can you make such a claim that the hum passes through said materials? John, I'm not trying to dismiss your observations, but rather to strengthen them. To do this, one must ask the questions that, if answered in the affirmative, would bring down the hypothesis. This is science. Without asking (and attempting to answer through experimentation) the sometimes 'difficult' questions, anything you can come up with is no more than suspicion. If we are to truly make headway into the issues of the hum, then we need solid data backed by controls. There is absolutely no way around this.
