 I am sure it was a technical problem. He never bans people because he

 people who were extremely disruptive, rude, or flat-out crazy.

 I expect your message never reached him, probably because of an

Eskimo does have fairly draconian RBL filtering, though I doubt that yahoo

Charlie Gibson and Michael Guillen did the original
shorter excerpts for this in 1996 for ABC's 'Good

Patterson was greatly offended, and slandered, by the
sick and misguided self-appointed expert, Robert
Park... probably singled out because of the favorable
TV exposure (seen in these vids) and the fact that
nothing important (or fully replicated) has yet to
come out of the CETI tech(so far)

I hope I live long enough to see Patterson's cell
legitimized. He was a competent and diligent inventor,

Bose Condensate? , AFAIK, they form just above absolute  zero. Why were you 
expecting one to form? 
 
Good comment.  A Bose condensate of electrons  only forms at low 
temperatures.  I was attempting to form a Bose condensate  of protons (also 
known as an 
inverse condensate).  The thermal velocity of  protons is much less that the 
thermal velocity of electrons at room  temperature.  This lower velocity is a 
result of the increased mass of the  protons.  The distribution of the kinetic 
energy of particles with  differing masses is the same.  I even tried helium in 
a past experiments in  an attempt to obtain an even lower thermal velocity.  I 
believe that  protons in a proton conductor may be forced to condense through 
external  stimulation.  The required stimulation depends on the coherence  
length.  The product of the length of coherence and frequency is 1.094  
meghertz-meters.
 
 
 
 
If your intent is to increase the strength of the  phonons, why not use sound 
for
the stimulation, i.e. attach an ultra-sound  generator to the wire, and 
stimulate
it at the desired frequency? It may be  easier to tailor the length of the 
wire
to the frequency of the generator  than the other way around. (start with wire
that is a little too long, then  you can slowly reduce it to the correct size 
-
perhaps even using an  adjustable clamp to change the natural frequency - as 
with
a violin or  guitar).
 
Another good comment: 
 
I like this idea.  In general,  applying shock to a Bose condensate of 
protons is what I want to do.   The required frequencies for the lengths of 
wire I 
am working with are in the 10  megahertz range.  I have no way to mechanically 
stimulate a proton  conductor at 10 megahertz.  I would like to do this.  It 
would take  one tight guitar string.  I am hoping the electrical stimulation 
works  because the result may be the production of RF electrical energy.  Russ  
George was  mechanically stimulating proton conductors.  I have not  received 
word on any working device at D2 Fusion.  The device at Gardner  Watts appears 
to be generating RF energy. Perhaps this is due only to  sparking.  I would 
like to know more about this.
 
 
I have just ordered some more  nickel wire.  I want to try nickel and light 
water again, perhaps with  helium.
 
I lost my full time job at Pelelec about 10 years ago  due in part to my 
activities with new energy.  I am currently a contractor  with Alstom Power.  I 
start up power plants.  The money is better,  however, the job requires 
extensive travel.  I'll be going to Pittsburgh  and living in a hotel for the 
next 8 
weeks.  After that I will return  to Charlotte, NC.  This travel puts a crimp 
on my cold fusion  experiments.  My equipment is in Pennsylvania.

Assuming your coherence length is at least proportional to the De Broglie
wavelength (L_DB) and 

L_DB = h/p and

p = sqrt(2*m*E) where E = kinetic energy, we get

L_DB = h/(sqrt(2*m*E)) .

Since, as you state above, the energy is the same irrespective of type of
particle, we see that L_DB is in fact shorter for heavy particles than it is for
light ones (the mass is in the denominator). IOW I would expect the coherence
length of electrons to be sqrt(1836) ~= 43 times greater than that of protons.

IOW I think your quest for heavier particles may be misguided.

Piezo-electric crystals have been used in the past, to achieve sonic frequencies
in a solid on the order of 10 GHz (in the most extreme case of which I am
aware), so I think 10 MHz should be well within the realm of possibility.


I would like to do this.  It 
would take  one tight guitar string.  

In my previous post I suggested that the natural resonant frequency was
significant, which isn't necessarily so. It would be difficult to achieve, since
this is determined by the speed of sound in the material in question, whereas
the frequency you are striving for is determined by your 1 MHz-m product, which
as I have pointed out before, is actually a velocity (about 1E6 m/s). The speed
of sound in most metals is on the order of 4000 m/s, so there is an implicit
mismatch here. If you really want to resonate the wire at a natural resonant
frequency of the wire, then perhaps you can find a metal-temperature combination
where 1E6 m/s is a whole multiple of the speed of sound in the metal. This may
be a matter of slowly heating the wire (passing a current through it?), until
the right sound velocity in the wire is reached. (Assuming that there is some
temperature dependence of sound velocity in a metal.)
[snip]
BTW, while researching this response, I came across a reference to the Fermi
velocity of electrons (see
http://scienceworld.wolfram.com/physics/FermiVelocity.html), which I note is
very close to your 1 MHz-m product.

This is much longer than the deBroglie waveleigth.

Jones,

My understanding is that as clever as the Patterson cell was, there was 
something in the beads that was important to the success. When the supply of 
beads was used up, the effect vanished. This has happened before, in other 
industries. At one time Motorola offer to buy him out but his CEO grandson 
thought they could do better and refused. Motorola might have had the 
resources to analyze everything.


The Case cell also required an undocumented magic touch to work. When the 
source of the carbonaceous carrier was used up, the effect went away also. 
FP were most successful with cathodes from a specific ingot prepared by JM 
which has not been duplicated.


The 'secret' of the Nuclear Active Enviroment is still elusive.

Hi,
[snip]

I haven't been following the list lately (bad Steve) so maybe someone
(Jones?) has already covered this, but the question of *WHY* the U.S.
chose to shoot down that satellite is an interesting one.


The satellite was dead, unresponsive to any commands, unsteerable. It did 
not have an aerodynamic shape, so its interaction with the atmosphere was 
unpredictable. It is was not a meteor, so might not burn up totally and 
nasty chuncks could have fallen on cities, creating all manner of problems. 
The Aegis system is well developed and does not carry atomic warheads. Its 
mission is to protect a fleet at sea by shooting down any threat from 
horizon to horizon. It has routinly shot down test missiles for years. It is 
no 'news' to the armed forces of the world. The only question was the 
altitude range of the on board missiles.

coherence length in superconductors as exceeding the distance between the
electrons in a pair (not difficult).

This is much longer than the deBroglie waveleigth.

The De Broglie wavelength at 4 K is about 66 nm, which seems about right, if the
inter electron pair distance is to be less than this.

I believe that the coherence length is equal to the downshifted Compton

Do you have a formula for this, and how does it differ from the definition of
