Re: [Vo]: The Absurdity of Darwinian Evolution.
Steven, I appreciate your point of view. I will respond this last time on this subject matter here and then I will move the discussion to VortexB and if you are willing to continue this discussion, meet me over there. I think it's fun to try to understand another's point of view. Regarding dirty dancing - which is really most forms of dancing we have nowadays. Would it surprise you that I support dirty dancing. Yes, I think dirty dancing is OK in the eyes of God if it is done under the following conditions: 1. It is done with the proper individual/partner (husband or wife; Male husband with female wife), not with your same sex, multi-sex, or androgenous partner. and not with someone who is not your wife or husband. There is no sexual sin if sex is done with your husband or wife. Dirty dancing is not dirty if done with your husband or wife. 2. It is done in the privacy of your own home. No one else can see you. Displaying your dancing in public is tantamount to commiting that same dirty dancing with the person looking at you. 3. It is done to the tune of proper Godly music. Not rock and roll, punk rock, heavy metal or whatever. Music is part of the dancing and in fact, it is the biggest component of dancing. Proper music is not sin. So, in fact, since we are not married in Heaven, there will be no need for dancing, let alone dirty dancing. There will be Godly dancing associated with Godly music of praise and worship. Not dancing and music to satisfy carnal lust. No, comments about sexuality do not offend me. Why should it? Sexuality is a God-given desire and need; and God gave us abundant resource to express it with our own husbands and wives.

Greetings Jojo, my ancient respected nemesis from the past. I do not believe my previous comments implied that I am rejecting God and Heaven. The conflict, if there really exists one between us, seems to be that we may have slightly different intellectual perspectives as to what God and the Kingdom of Heaven might consist of. IMHO, both reside within us. http://biblehub.com/luke/17-21.htm In terms that I hope may establish a way for you and I to find some common ground in which to stand on I would submit that God and the Kingdom of Heaven is an eternal dance of Unity. To my way of thinking and feeling, that eternal dance includes sexuality. I include the expression of sexuality because, in my view, it is one of the most obvious, primal forces of Cosmic Creation that conscious sentient beings can experience. The ultimate expression of sexuality is Unity. When it comes to expressing Unity, I suspect God is not a prude, nor do I suspect has the Kingdom of Heaven banned Dirty Dancing. It seems to me that only humans have learned how to behave prudishly when it comes to the infinite creativity sexuality bestows upon sentient creatures like us. Fortunately, I suspect God is very patient about such foibles. I don't know if my comments about sexuality have possibly offended you or not. Be that as it may, in the end I think we must remain True to Our Own School. That means we must live our Own School as best we can. We must be responsible for expressing our own POVs as clearly as we can so that others can evaluate them at their own pace and level of comprehension. That is the only way I know how common ground can be found amongst each other. Likewise, it is not our responsibility nor sacred duty to attempt to manipulate, coerce, or force our POVs, or Our Own School onto others. Again, it would appear that only sentient creatures, like us, seemed to have learned how to do that.

at the Planck size. Hence, it would make sense that the smallest manifestation they can have would be the Planck size. Hence, even if Angels can not occupy the same space and time as I originally speculated, they can still be as small as the Planck size, hence 100 million of them would still fit on the head of a pin. Regarding dancing, I was referring to carnal dancing that our generation indulges in. Angels have no need nor desire to engage in carnal dancing, (at least the non-fallen ones).

They can come and go into our dimension, assume any shape they like in our dimension So far, so good. and can occupy the same space at the same time in our dimension. That's not clear at all. First, God (I'll capitalize it as a proper noun) is described (not in the bible) as omnipitent (all powerful), omnipresent (everywhere, presumably at the same time), and eternal. But eternal means that he lasts for ever, not that he can move backwards and forwards in time. Your statement about angel's habitation implies that they exist in a finite volume of n-space and, like God, move only forward in time. Likewise, their penetration into a volume of our 3-space is a finite 3-space volume. Therefore your argument that they take up a zero 3-space volume is invalid (or 2-space, if we restrict the solution to the surface of the head of a pin). It may be at the planck scale, but it's still a volume or area. I do agree that the finite number of angels (100+ million) provides a practical upper limit. For example, we could say (and I'm picking these numbers out of the air), that 100 Billion people could stand in a thousand-square mile area -- but the actual number is limited by the world's population. I see no evidence that angels, NOT being omnipresent, can occupy the same volume of n-space, so the exclusion principal applies: they must occupy separate volumes in n-space and, as a sub-set, in 3-space. Next, we come to standing or dancing. The Bible has nothing to say about whether heavenly beings dance or not, but some human dancing is endorsed (and some is declaimed.). But I cannot conceive of a heaven filled with the sound of musical instruments, and the listeners of that celestial movement being required to stand still. In any case, you argue that the 3-D size of an angel is vanishingly small. It will most likely also be subject to a N-dimensional Heisenberg uncertainty principal. By setting their velocity to zero (no dancing) you set the uncertainty of their position to infinity, so you can no longer claim with certainty that they are ON the head of the pin.

Re: [Vo]: The Absurdity of Darwinian Evolution.
The answer to this question is 100 million. It may come as a surprise to many but the Bible may have an answer to this question. I am answering this not to show how biblically knowledgeable I am, but to show the skeptic that the Bible has many many answers to many many difficult questions if one simply takes the time to study it and evaluate the evidence it presents with an open mind. To try to answer this question - the question of how many Angels can dance on the head of a pin? I need to lay some groundwork. But before I do that, let it be clear to everyone that Angles don't dance. That carnal behavior is beneath them. So, the proper question is - How many Angels can stand on the head of a pin. 1. First, let's understand that the Bible teaches that our 3.5 dimensional world (3 space dimensions, plus 1/2 of time dimension - 1/2 because we can only travel in that dimension 1 way - only towards the future, we can't move back in time.) - that our 3.5 dimensional world is but a part of a reality that is composed of maybe up to 10 dimensions. Paul talks of being taken to the third heaven - this is another place of existence inaccesible to us mortals. Maimonides, an ancient Jewish Scholar, believed that we live in a 10-dimensional world only 4 of which was knowable. John, when describing the New Jerusalem, talks of the streets of being made of Pure Gold like clear glass. How can pure gold be like clear glass other than there is another dimension wherein this pure opaque gold exists wherein one can see thru it. Jude, when describing angels talks of how fallen angels left their habitation, which imply that they have another type of habitation (Body). Jesus in his ressurection body was able to pass thru doors and appear and disappear at will, and also float up to heaven at his ascension. Jesus at the transfiguration was transformed to a bright and shining form of body. Even our latest science tells the same story. There are many scholar who believe that our reality is but a projection - a hologram, a simulation of a larger multi-dimensional reality. Doesn't Dawkins talk of a multiverse? He is reflecting the sentiment of many scholars, who may not necessarily, and in fact, are not Christians. Doesn't our Latest String Theory talk of a 10-dimensional Universe? So, the point of my first point, is that there is reason to believe from the Bible as well as from Science that we live in a Universe which may be up to 10 dimensions. Thus, Angels are in fact multi-dimensional creatures. They can come and go into our dimension, assume any shape they like in our dimension and can occupy the same space at the same time in our dimension. 2. Second, to begin to answer how many Angels can fit on the head of a pin, let's examine the broader question of how many Angels there are. Revelations 5.11 has this to say. As far as I know, this is the only place in the Bible where the number of Angels is explicitly mentioned. It says 10 thousand times 10 thousands and thousands of thousands. Rev 5:11 And I beheld, and I heard the voice of many angels round about the throne and the beasts and the elders: and the number of them was ten thousand times ten thousand, and thousands of thousands; I don't know what thousands of thousands is, but I do know that 10 thousand times 10 thousand is 100 million. Hence, the answer to the question is 100 million Angels can fit on the head of pin. If you count fallen Angels in the mix, the number would be 150 million because 1/3 of the Angels followed Satan in the fall leaving behind 2/3 which is 100 million.

If the necessary information is present from the beginning, then it only needs to be triggered and it will express itself. This is my suspicion of how the process might work. This process my friend, is called micro-evolution or variation or adaptation. The genetic information required to trigger a change is already encoded in the DNA. This mechanism can create large changes in a short time. It does not rely on mutations. This mechanism does not result in a new kind (~species). It does not result in Macro-evolution. This idea of reversibility in itself is already a violation of one of the tenets of Darwinian Theory. Darwinian Theory says the change must be persistent. If the reverse is easier than the forward change, it violates the persistence requirement. Regarding E. Coli resistance. You are correct in that the resistance is conferred by an expression of a gene. In this case, just a single gene which creates a single protein on the cell wall of the bacteria that prevents the antibiotic from attaching itself to the bacteria which prevents the denaturing/splitting of the bacteria cell wall. But this is precisely my argument for the difference between micro from macro-evolution. The mechanism for expressing a trait is already encoded in the DNA in micro-evolution - it is adaptation. There is no mutation that needs to confer a survival advantage. Everything the bacteria needs to mount a defense is already encoded. That is why you will never find E. Coli that is resistant to Chlorine for example. Chlorine will always kill E. Coli, because E.Coli does not have a gene that it can express to confer Chlorine resistance. The extent of what E. Coli can be resistant to is determined by its genetic tool box. It can never be resistant to something that is not in its tool box. Since we don't understand what all the information in the non-coding regions is there for, we can never be sure quite what might pop out of that tool box once a key mutation has had time to occur. You have a point, but since we have never seen E. Coli which can survive a good bleaching, it is safe to assume it does not have the necessary genetic encoding to mount that defense. Micro-evolution has a limited set of stresses it can adapt for. That is why certain whole variations dissappear and go extinct.

Re: [Vo]:Punctuated equilibrium
My friend, caterpillars turning to butterflies are not micro-evolution, that is normal development associated with butterflies. How about a tadpole turning into a frog, is that micro-evolution also? Or an egg into a chick? Heck, we can go hogwild, how about a female ovary egg into a human. The egg is one species Macro-evolving into a human (another species). Is this how you really look at it? My friend, let's get serious. I had hoped not to respond on this subject but this is just plain funny.

Re: [Vo]:Punctuated equilibrium
Darwinian Evolution is the most popular due to one element. It postulates a natural undirected process that does not require God or a creator. Some proposals of evolution are directed. The evolution is directed or forced into a plan or path towards the more complex form, presumably by God or some Intelligent being. These are not popular because it can be argued that an intelligent being is directing the evolution. This is unpalatable to atheists evolutionists. If fact, Charlie himself really disliked any suggestion of a process that occurs quickly, like micro-evolution or adaptation. He disliked it for the simple reason that it can be argue that an intelligence is behind the evolution. Hence, he already rejected one possible mode of evolution due to his dislike for the concept of God. That attitude my friends is a RELIGION. Darwinian Evolution is a religion. Many people nowadays are afflicted with this unreasonable philosophy. This philosophy is also known as Methological Naturalism. This says all answers must be naturalistic.

Re: [Vo]:SunCell - Initial Replication Attempt
First, The burben you feel is due to the nature of how discussions in this list are distributed. I feel your pain and I feel the burden myself. I made a suggestion in the past that this list should be converted to a forum format to lessen the burden and distraction to members. The forum format allows the member to participate in a topic only he desires without annoying others. Clearly, this fact alone has contributed to this impose and burden that you are lamenting. The list email format is counter-productive. Maybe you should try to prevail on Bill to change it to improve the increasing communication burden you feel, instead ot trying to stifle discussion on topics clearly many people are interested in. Second, Clearly, there is much interest in the topic of Darwinian Evolution and Carbon Dating and Global Warming. I have many posts because many questions have been directed to me by several members. They ask an important question, I try to answer. You will notice that this time around, I have not posted on a purely religious topic unless as an answer to a direct religious question. Third, the topic of Evolution, Carbon Dating and Global Warming are controversial and discussions will necessary drift to areas where other people consider to be religious and metaphysical - although these topics in itself is science, and hence appropriate for this forum. This is part of the vibrancy that creates the unique environment in this forum. If you want a monolithic mindset and you want to suppress discussion because you feel burdened or imposed, you only do so at the expense of what makes this forum unique. If you want non-controversial topics only, you will get a dull forum. Take a page from Lomax's NewVortex forum. It's heavily moderated where monolithic thinking is imposed. It is an oppressive and dull place to participate in. (Funny thing - Even Rocha got booted out of that place.) Fourth, The spat in the past was due to me reacting to lies and insults thrown my way. I have since taken that lesson to heart and this time around, I don't repond to insults and lies against me anymore. I try to stay on the topic of the discussion. Fifth, What's with this sneaking accusation. If I tried to sneak back, I would have not used my real name and confess to every one that I am Jojo Jaro. I came back because I feel that certain ideas are taking hold in vortex that I feel were leading many people down the wrong LENR research path. But my involvement has since balooned beyond what I would have initially wanted due to many questions and controversies, and people's deliberate attempts to provoke me. (Rocha comes to mind.) This forum has been a burden to my time these last few days, so I wouldn't consider it a big loss if I get banned again. In fact, I have moderated my response this last day, due to time constraints. So, have at it my friend. Sixth, Clearly it is a slow time. The discussion about these topics you lament, has clearly made this forum a more vibrant place these last few days. If you begrudge that, then you are not interested in the success of this forum. Besides, you are one of the more prolific posters on a topic you are now accusing as an Off-topic topic - global warming. Do I sense hypocrisy and a double-standard here? Seventh, I have made a promise to myself to try waste less time in here. So, you will find fewer post from me.

Re: [Vo]:Re: The Absurdity of Darwinian Evolution.
Actually, my friend, DNA vastly complicates Macro-Evolution because DNA is essentially a repository of Information. Try scrambling a few letters in a book and see if you come up with more information. No, you will not, information is lost everytime there is s mutation. Information which is the outward manifestation of order never increases due to a random process. Darwinian Evolution is wrong for a lot of reasons, one of the strongest of which is it can not explain the origin of information in our DNA. Panspermia (life from outer space) faces the same Abiogenesis problem we face here. It does not matter where in the Universe you think the first life originated, it is still constrained by the limitations of probability and time. The probabilities are huge and there is not enough time. 16 billion years may seem long to us, but in the realm of random processes, it is but a tick of time. Jojo PS.

If there were only atoms and molecules involved and no mechanism to arrange them the chance of creating a horse would indeed be very small as you describe. It would correspond to the chance of creating an aircraft by letting a twister pass over a junkyard. You can ofcourse ask me where DNA originated from and that the chance to produce it is to small to happen by chance. According to R.Mills we live in a indefinitely oscillating universe. That makes it more plausible that life developed naturally without any intelligent design by a God bcs there is no time restriction.

Re: [Vo]:Evolutionists As Idiots
I believe in the Bible fully from cover to cover. The Bible says the Universe and the Earth was created in 6 literal days. Now, the day may not necessarily be 24 hours but the idea was that God created everything in a short time. When he did that is not revealed in the Bible. Many Biblical scholars claim that they can backtrace the genealogy and concluded that it is currently about 6000 years old. I have no reason to doubt them although I fully admit that they could be wrong. After all, they are all human and their calculation is not from God. Also, this is a rough estimate. No exact dates are provided in reference to major events. Just hints here and there that place the event in its historical context. Also, Biblical scholars who study Eschatology (study of End times, like Armageddon, 2nd Coming of Christ, Millenial Kingdom, etc.) sometimes apply prophecy to Biblical history. This is a valid Bible Study technique, since Prophecy is Prologue. What that means is that many events that occur in the Bible always have prophetic significance one way or another. Many scholars equate a 7-day prophecy to our history. 1 day is prophecied to be equal to 1000 years. Many prophecies put us on the 6th day. That is also where the 6000 years came from. The 7th day is the day of rest which they equate to the Millenial reign of King Christ from a literal throne in Jerusalem. So, if you ask me what I believe, there it is. Jojo PS. BTW, as a believer, the Bible says that I am a King and Priest. So, I will be running a city and/or a church in the Millenium. Most likely just a city cause there would only be one church.

I do see a problem with this particular experiment, even though I think it was a good stab at trying to observe evolution working. Bacteria don't reproduce sexually. They clone themselves. It's a much more simplified carbon-copy process of perpetuating the species. There's far less potential to introduce mutation and other genetic changes with each successive generation. There is very little chance for the random exchange of genes between two organisms. Introducing random genetic change is, IMO, crucial for the theory of evolution to work effectively.

Re: [Vo]:SunCell - Initial Replication Attempt
You have a point. Though my view is, it may not be worth making these elaborate modifications. Are we striving for superaccuracy, or are we just trying to hit it in the ballpark?

If you had a simple twisted pair wire to make the measurement, you would still end up with a measurement loop through which the magnetic fields from the welding action will flow. These magnetic fields will induce a voltage in the measurement loop, even if the voltage across the gap is 0V. To get rid of this error voltage, you need to make the measurements with a compensating loop present. The compensating loop will cancel this induced voltage by being connected in anti-series with the measurement connection. I have never had to do this in other experiments because the currents were so low in those cases, but it is probably necessary in this case. I don't know if Mills' team knew to do this. Also, it would be possible to measure the current with a clip-on probe. Such a probe only measures AC, so you would have to integrate the waveform that you measure and use the condition that at t=0, the current was 0. You would also have to calibrate with an AC current. It would probably be useful to do both current measurements. Just doing a control calorimetry experiment is not good enough. Let's say you are using a porous titanium particle to hold the milligrams of water that supposedly compose the hydrino reaction. Encapsulate a dry particle in wax and detonate it underwater and measure the energy that heated the water. Then, add the water to the titanium particle and encapsulate it in wax [one way to do this might be to freeze the particle with its water and then coat it with wax]. Then repeat the experiment and see how the energy obtained from the temperature rise in the water compared. This comparison is simple only if the electrical energy input in both cases was the same - which is not likely. So you would still need to measure the electrical energy from the current and voltage waveforms to make sense of the results. These are the kinds of details that go into research that is unassailable - it is meticulous work.

Connect a lead across two points on one arm. Use another calibrated source to run X known amps (lets say 10A) of current across the two points and see what voltage you get out. Calculate the shunt resistance as a calibration factor. Now you can use a digital storage oscilloscope to measure the differential voltage and capture the current waveshape. Next you need an oscilloscope connection across the two arms to simulaneously (with the current measurement) measure the voltage across the contacts - the connections don't have to be super close to the contacts because the voltage drop across the big conductors will be small. Then you can capture the voltage waveform. I don't think it will exceed 50V. To test, you can put a diode to capacitor across the gap and capture the peak voltage to know what you will need to protect against. You will need the simultaneous voltage and current waveform to calculate the input energy. There are other ways to do this, but this provides a lot of information.
Re: [Vo]: The Absurdity of Darwinian Evolution.

May I suggest: The calculation PROVES you are a TROLL. So have another go, but scale things up a bit before you do. (It takes today's bacteria 20 minutes to reproduce, so I don't see why one change every 140 hours is fast.) Why are you assuming changes are sustained? Why are you assuming changes are observable?

Because of this flaw, the COP could be substantially over-estimated - easily by a factor of 2. Thus, even the COP of 2 was not demonstrated. I think it extremely unlikely that by controlling the gap you could tune the energy delivered down by even 50%. This type of welder has no separate means of initiating plasma - it requires the contact. It probably has a saturable core to limit the current flow. A special apparatus would be needed to deliver an ignition pulse and then a controlled energy in the plasma conduction. This would probably be a regulated capacitor discharge circuitry to get to the very high current, but short pulse needed to create a 5 joule ignition. I think there is no chance to verify a 5 joule ignition with this spot welder setup.

Re: [Vo]:Punctuated equilibrium
John, my friend, you have a fundamental problem in your analysis. Your unyielding adherence to Darwinian dogma is blinding you and preventing you from asking the right questions. You assume Darwinian Evolution is true first and that skews your analysis. For example, you assume that the Coelacanth is 350 million years old. How do you know that? You know that only because Darwinian Evolution theory told you so. Since your first assumption is that Darwinian Evolution is true, you can liberally conclude that the Coelacanth is 350 million years old. Then a wrong question stems from this wrong understanding - wrong assumption. You then ask why the coelacanth stopped evolving? This of course is the wrong question that you are trying to answer. What you should do is not assume anything. You then look at the data and see if Darwinian Evolution fits the data. Can Darwinian Evolution explain the existence of the Coelacanth up to today and why it hasn't evolved? If not, Darwinian Evolution theory is wrong. Instead, you ask, how could the Coelacanth exist unchanged for 350 million years? This is the wrong questions that should not have been asked if your initial assumptions did not screw with your analysis.

Re: [Vo]:Punctuated equilibrium
As pointed out, the odds for a mutation occuring that would result in a feature that is useful enough is astronomical. (See my first link). Its like fllipping 1000 consecutive heads followed by 1000 consecutive tails. Unlikely does not mean possible. It depends on the odds. If it is greater than 10^50, it is considered impossible. The concept of reversing the change is just as improbable because the mechanism is random. There is no such thing as rolling downhill. The process is the same in both directions. This idea of reversibility in itself is already a violation of one of the tenets of Darwinian Theory. Darwinian Theory says the change must be persistent. If the reverse is easier than the forward change, it violates the persistence requirement. Regarding E. Coli resistance. You are correct in that the resistance is conferred by an expression of a gene. In this case, just a single gene which creates a single protein on the cell wall of the bacteria that prevents the antibiotic from attaching itself to the bacteria which prevents the denaturing/splitting of the bacteria cell wall. But this is precisely my argument for the difference between micro from macro-evolution. The mechanism for expressing a trait is already encoded in the DNA in micro-evolution - it is adaptation. There is no mutation that needs to confer a survival advantage. Everything the bacteria needs to mount a defense is already encoded. That is why you will never find E. Coli that is resistant to Chlorine for example. Chlorine will always kill E. Coli, because E.Coli does not have a gene that it can express to confer Chlorine resistance. The extent of what E. Coli can be resistant to is determined by its genetic tool box. It can never be resistant to something that is not in its tool box.

You assume Darwinian Evolution is true first and that skews your analysis. For example, you assume that the Coelacanth is 350 million years old. How do you know that? We have been over this ad nauseum. I accept radiometric dating. In many cases it is simply superb. You are welcome to continue rubbishing it but you should be aware that in the almost unanimous view of intelligent and well educated people you are thereby only rubbishing yourself. You know that only because Darwinian Evolution theory told you so. Since your first assumption is that Darwinian Evolution is true, you can liberally conclude that the Coelacanth is 350 million years old. Then a wrong question stems from this wrong understanding - wrong assumption. You then ask why the coelacanth stopped evolving? This of course is the wrong question that you are trying to answer. What you should do is not assume anything. You then look at the data and see if Darwinian Evolution fits the data. What about you? You make one massive assumption (that the history and legends brought back by the Jews after their exile in Babylon has to be completely inerrant), and then you look at the data and no matter how good it is, you toss it out if you can't make it fit that massive assumption. Can Darwinian Evolution explain the existence of the Coelacanth up to today and why it hasn't evolved? If not, Darwinian Evolution theory is wrong. Instead, you ask, how could the Coelacanth exist unchanged for 350 million years? This is the wrong questions that should not have been asked if your initial assumptions did not screw with your analysis. Jojo PS: I'm really at a loss understanding why people can't seem to see the stupidities of their belief in Darwinian Evolution - why they can see that Darwinian Evolution could be wrong. Take out the plank that is in your own eye, and then you can see better to pick specks of dust from others assumptions.
Re: [Vo]: The Absurdity of Darwinian Evolution.
This is a perfect example of what I am talking about. There are facts here. The facts are that human, fly and worm appears to have some common genomic processes. These are facts that I will not deny. This is the interpretation. That human, fly and worm have a common ancestor. The interpretation of the facts is just an opinion. It is not a fact that human, fly and worm have a common ancestry. That is simply an interpretation, a conclusion, of what the person thinks it means. Evolutionist like to conflate their interpretation with the facts and promote their interpretation as fact. This is the reason why so many people are deluded. They do not think enough to separate the facts from the interpretation of what the facts mean. If you are still confused as what my point is: FACT: Researchers analyzing human, fly, and worm genomes have found that these species have a number of key genomic processes in common INTERPRETATION: reflecting their shared ancestry. I could just as easily said: MY INTERPRETATION: reflecting a common designer. Hence: YOUR VIEW: Researchers analyzing human, fly, and worm genomes have found that these species have a number of key genomic processes in common, reflecting their shared ancestry.

The findings, appearing Aug. 28, 2014, in the journal Nature, offer insights into embryonic development, gene regulation and other biological processes vital to understanding human biology and disease. Consortium studied how gene expression patterns and regulatory proteins that help determine cell fate often share common features. Investigators also detailed the similar ways in which the three species use protein packaging to compact DNA into the cell nucleus and to regulate genome function by controlling access to DNA. The insights gained about the workings of model organisms' genomes greatly help to inform our understanding of human biology. One way to describe and understand the human genome is through comparative genomics and studying model organisms, said Mark Gerstein, Ph.D., Albert L. Williams Professor of Biomedical Informatics at Yale University in New Haven, Connecticut, and the lead author on one of the papers. The special thing about the worm and fly is that they are very distant from humans evolutionarily, so finding something conserved across all three – human, fly and worm – tells us it is a very ancient, fundamental process. Investigators showed that the ways in which DNA is packaged in the cell are similar in many respects, and, in many cases, the species share programs for turning on and off genes in a coordinated manner. More specifically, they used gene expression patterns to match the stages of worm and fly development and found sets of genes that parallel each other in their usage. They also found the genes specifically expressed in the worm and fly embryos are re-expressed in the fly pupae, the stage between larva and adult. The researchers found that in all three organisms, the gene expression levels for both protein-coding and non-protein-coding genes could be quantitatively predicted from chromatin features at the promoters of genes. A gene's promoter tells the cell's machinery where to begin copying DNA into RNA, which can be used to make proteins. DNA is packaged into chromatin in cells, and changes in this packaging can regulate gene function. If Darwinian Evolution was considered an Absurdity, this work would not have been done.

Re: [Vo]:Evolutionists As Idiots
It is important to make this distinction because we need to be specific in our definition of what is occuring. Mircro and Macro has nothing to do with size or amount of evolution. It has something to do with the mechanism of evolution. Many people nowadays do not like to use the term microevolution cause it invites confusion just like this. Microevolution is adaptation within a species (kind). Lots of microevolution and adaptation does not result in Macro-evolution (change of species/kind). This distinction is important.

Seems to me that Macro-Evolution is nothing more than Micro-Evolution happening on a much longer geological time-scale. I don't see what the big deal is. Why is it so important to make the distinction between what is considered micro versus macro. To me it makes logical sense to assume that stringing a couple hundred thousand micro changes together on a long successive string of successive micro-mutations will inevitably end up with blatant macro-mutation changes - when compared with what one started with. To me macro changes would have to be inevitable outcome. One just needs enough time for the baking process to complete. In a sense I think it is also somewhat of a misconception to describe Macro evolution as starting with species :A and then ending up with species B. Macro evolution isn't about a start point, nor an end point. Macro evolution about the present and only the present. It doesn't care one whit about what happened yesterday, and it has no idea what to expect tomorrow. There is only one goal: to survive in the present. According to evolution theory, this is a never-ending process of constant change and adaption to minute changes in current environment conditions. But again, there really isn't any start and end point. I think it would be more accurate to describe both species A and species B as nothing more than tiny snapshots belonging to the uncompleted motion feature film showing the motion of evolution in constant change. This would be a film that for all tense and purposes never ends. There is no practical way to conduct a science experiment in a laboratory on observing Macro evolution changing a complex multi-cellular organism from species A to species B, particularly when it takes geological time to make the transformation blatantly obvious. OTOH, it might be interesting to see if it's possible to observe the macro-evolution a simple organism, say a bacterium, or better yet a paramecium. Because their life cycles are short, one can produced countless generations which might allow an accumulation of micro mutations to eventually accumulate into macro mutations. We need to start with one kind of an environment and then gradually change the conditions in order to allow evolution to manifest a radically different organism over several years. Make sure the environmental changes occur reasonably slow so that the organism has time to produce FAVORABLE micro mutations and as such adjust micro-genetically. Keep a separate (original) sample of the initial organism, A ,then presumably after the experiment ends, compare the original genetic mapping with the later time-line genetic mapping. One important point to see if we really have produced new organism: The new organism must be so different that it is incapable of living in the environmental conditions of where its progenitors came from, and vice versa. For example, organism A can only live in temperatures of 50 degrees below, and organism B can only live in temperatures above 100 degrees... something like that.

Because the mechanism is different. Macro-Evolution stipulates mutations that results in features that confer a survival advantage. These changes occur from generation to generation. This is the definition of Natural Selection. Micro-Evolution involves changes in features within a single individual species within its own lifetime. When our skin turns dark after prolonged exposure to the sun, that is change but that is not Macro-evolution - it's micro-evolution, it's simply adaptation - changes within a species. The changes never result in a new species. The changes are rapid which results in new features. The genetic code is already there in our DNA, no mutations need to occur to confer that new feature. This is the critical thing that people must understand to understand the difference between Macro-Evolution vs. Micro-Evolution. Macro-Evolution has never been observable or repeatable.

Re: [Vo]: The Absurdity of Darwinian Evolution.
Assuming the most liberal assumptions of the age of the Universe being 16,000,000,000 years. (504576 seconds) Assuming that at the birth of the Universe there was a single cell lifeform. Assuming that there are 1,000,000,000,000 changes from a single cell lifeform vs Man. (There is certainly more than 1 trillion differences between man and single cell lifeform.) This single lifeform must produce a change every 140 hours or 5.84 days (504576/1) for it to evolve into Man. This is absolutely ridiculous. Evolution rates this fast must surely be observable. Where are the observable changes we can see? Simple math like this clearly prove that Darwinian Evolution is stupid, yet we have intelligent people like Jed arguing for it.

Re: [Vo]:SunCell - Initial Replication Attempt
If you measure before the input side, you have to minus the base load of the transformer (its losses). Then you can run the spark and see if your instruments are sensitive enough to register a fast power spike. Then you have to integrate the chart to compute energy. I believe this is what BLP did, hence this technique is open to criticism as erroneous. The only way to absolutely prove overunity is to close the loop.

Re: [Vo]:SunCell - Initial Replication Attempt
Well, we are testing the theory that Randy is proposing. In that theory, the water should split to H atoms which would then undergo a hydrino transition in the presence of a catalyst (the wire in Jack' case; powder in Mill's case). This is what we are ruling out. Can you explain the origin of the more intense spark in the presence of a thin film of water. You're argument of impedance change is valid; though I tend to think it is irrelevant given the small change a thin film of water would contribute.

The first, which you pick up on, is the evolution of the complex folding proteins, and the second is the evolution of the information that is used to define the complex structure of multi celled organisms (such as us). There are countless examples which show how duplication of whole or parts of genes genes, mutation of parts of genes can create complex proteins from simple proteins. Indeed the relationship between equivalent proteins in different organsisms can often be used to produce a 'family tree' or phylogentic tree which closely mirrors the accepted evolutionary relationship between the species, and shows how a simple ancestral protein gave rise to lots of complex variants in different plants/animals. The evolution of structure/form and instincts which is what Darwin talks about, because he knows nothing of proteins, is very different because we still understand very little about how this is encoded into the DNA, although there is absolute evidence that it is. This is increasingly looking to be encoded in the 'junk' DNA in a much more distributed and robust way (like a hologram). These can change and mutate and give rise to variations in the organism without being lethal. A lot of the statistics that creationists use to show that evolution is improbable is based on the sequences in genes that encode for proteins, where small changes are frequently lethal. The statistics for the rest of the DNA is completely different, and I beleive completely compatible with the evolutionary model. So, I see no need for additional injection or meddling in order that DNA could go from producing simple lifeforms to complex lifeforms, but I dont think this can be proved mathematically yet because we dont understand the 'junk DNA' coding rules yet.

And the first animal to emerge from the sea was not a frog, but probably shared some aspects of the way that it breathed with frogs. Nigel For quite a while I have wanted to ask someone working in your field about what DNA has to say about evolution of species so maybe now is a good time. I have almost no doubt that physical life on this planet has evolved from a very simple looking self-replicating organism into the plethora of life forms which past and present have occupied it. But the mechanism by which this process occurs is still a complete mystery to me. I am totally convinced (from the maths) that random processes cannot by any means produce the complex folding proteins that are needed for life - so the question is how did they arise? Is it possible that the first life form (that as a minimum must have been implanted on this planet) could have contained in some condensed form sufficient information and machinery to evolve into all the life forms that have occurred? Or is it necessary that some additional injection or meddling was necessary along the way? For instance, as I understand it, the frog was one of the first creatures to invade the land from the sea and all land vertebrates evolved from the frog. So one question would be, is there sufficient information in the DNA of a frog, to have the potential of developing (by pre-designed but natural means) into all the land animals that have occurred (and of course the sea mammals)? Or is it necessary to postulate some other source of DNA information which needs to be added to the limited information available in frog DNA? So my question is really this:- From your knowledge of the DNA content of various life forms (and assuming the so-called junk DNA between
Re: [Vo]:Evolutionists As Idiots
Well, we have conducted evolution experiments in the lab where we subjected bacteria to artificial stress to stimulate macro-evolution. These accelerated trials would be the equivalent of millions of years of natural selection. And yet, what did we find? We find that the bacteria did change and adapt to the stress but yet remained the same bacteria. This is micro-evolution, not macro-evolution. The bacteria was simply expressing certain genetic traits already built into its DNA. No mutation. In this particular experiment I am talking about, E. Coli gained resistance to penicilin. That is adaptation,no macro evolution. In the end, E. Coli was still E. Coli. the same bacteria. No species jump. It did not become some other kind of mold or something. And most remarkably, when the stress was removed, the E. Coli population then reverted to its original form where it was E. Coli susceptible again. Natural selection was clearly not operative here.

It’s called a theory because there is no way we know how to practically assemble a scientific experiment that could document evolution occurring considering the extremely short time-frames scientific experiments have to be conducted within. A real authentic scientific experiment would have to be conducted over hundreds of thousands of years. Millions of years would be better.

Actually, reproduction by cellular mitosis would favor evolution. If Macro-evolution is occuring, cellular mitosis should prove it quickly. Why? Because one one set of genes can produce a trait that would confer a survival advantage. If reproduction is by cellular meiosis. both mutations have to be compatible for it to generate a trait. This task is more difficult and will occur at less probability compounding the long long long odds already facing Macro-Evolution. Regarding Horse Evolution, that was debunked about 5 decades ago.

There is very little chance for the random exchange of genes between two organisms. Introducing random genetic change is, IMO, crucial for the theory of evolution to work effectively.

Alas, I'm not sure this kind of an experiment would work because of the time frames involved.

Or is the goal simply to verify certain aspects of Mill's claims. If for instance we simply want to verify Mill's input energy claim of 5J or his output energy claims, then a simpler setup which is like the suncell would suffice.

Oh ... the decay rates are accurate and more or less stable all right. It's the assumptions surrounding this that I have a lot of problems with. For example, how can we assume that C-14 levels are the same today as they were 5,000 years ago? There is proof that C-14 levels have not reached equilibrium in our atmosphere. C-14 levels are still increasing today. And they vary from year to year, decade to decade based on our suns' temper tantrums. How can we be so confident assuming we understand C-14 levels from 5,000 years ago, when we can't even predict the weather 48 hours from now. If C-14 levels are lower in the past, it is clear that ages determined using Carbon dating would read ages that are older than they should be. I believe the crazy mammoth readings we get should make that abundantly clear. But for some reason, people can't seem to process this simple fact. Radionucleotide Dating techniques are inherently unreliable because we do not fully understand the validity of our assumptions surrounding this technique.

There are 2 current prevailing theories of who the aliens are. One theory says these UFO aliens are biological beings from distant star systems travelling to us using hyper warp speeds.

The other theory, which was promoted by Jacques Vallee (a non-christian) says that there is valid reason to believe that these UFOs are beings from another dimension of existence. These are spiritual beings, demons and other interdimensional manifestations.

Science should not exclude a whole class of explanations because it is not repeatable or can not be experienced with our five senses.

Thanks for identifying yourself my friend. I already forgot who it was that challenged me and I wasn't inclined to waste my time searching the archives. You asked for proof of my assertion that radionucleotide dating is unreliable, and I provided several actual egregious examples from reputable researchers published in reputable peer-reviewed publications. And yet, your response is: These are all outliers and errors and legends. My friend, You are only willing to accept results that seem right to you. Any other result is an outlier, and error and incompetence automatically. You claim that they are legends with no truth to it, yet they are published in publications that you respect. The problem with your version of science is that you want to have the right to decide which experimental result is valid. Any result you don't like is a mistake, an instrument error or legend. How can one discuss science in the face of such intractable ridiculousness. Of course these results are well known, and published in creationist web sites and elsewhere. Why? Because they show the truth that people like you would rather bury as an error, outlier or legend, so that you can promote your own twisted theories and beliefs. Your rebutal to my #1 and #2 items seems to illustrate very well my oriignal point. These two links claim that there are other processes that could skew the result. http://evolutionwiki.org/wiki/Living_snails_were_C14_dated_at_2,300_and_27,000_years_old http://evolutionwiki.org/wiki/A_freshly_killed_seal_was_C14_dated_at_1300_years_old Which is precisely my point. The technique depends on many assumptions many of which we do not fully understand. Hence, results are unreliable. My friend, you can discuss all you want till you turn blue, all the wiggly lines, all the calibration reports, the tree lines, all the expert opinions, etc etc but if you can not explain how these egregious results come about from a technique you deem reliable, your argument rings hollow. Your only other option is to claim error, outlier and/or incompetence, which is precisely what you and a couple of other folks like Jed is claiming. You don't like the result, it must be an error, an outlier. How convenient. Regarding what Moses wrote, if you want to discuss religion, start a new thread.

You have listed several good points and I will take them into consideration. My main issue with the current models is that new processes and interactions are being uncovered frequently which modify the behavior of the models in a significant manner. I ask what would be the output of a model at the end of this century that had all of the known and unknown pertinent factors taken into consideration? The recent acknowledgement of a new factor that allows for a 30 year pause in temperature rise is not an issue to be taken lightly. It also inflicts upon me the concern that there are likely more of these factors that remain hidden as of today. I suspect you have relied upon curve fitting routines in the past and realize that enough variables can be chosen and adjusted to match any set of input data as closely as desired as long as that data is sparse. You also probably realize that a polynomial fit to a high power order yields coefficients that vary depending upon the order of the polynomial chosen. Many combinations of coefficients will fit the input/output data over a restricted range. The problem shows up once you use those different coefficients to project the curve forwards into unknown future points. We are now clearly in witness to an example of the type of problem that I am speaking of. The old data apparently matched the functional relationship that the modelers have chosen to an excellent degree until the pause. They were confident that no pause would appear and many suggested that they would be worried if the pause lasted for more than about 5 years. As we know that time period came and passed and the pause continued which forced many of these guys to seek an explanation. Now, after several more years of unexpected pause, they have come up with their best explanation due to the 30 year Atlantic current cycle. Where was this cycle included during the long hockey stick period? Some might consider that the high rate of heating during the earlier period might have come about due to added heating by this same cycle. That certainly makes sense to me. So, I can not help but to question predictions that have been based upon a defective model. Furthermore, how confident can you possibly be that these guys now have all the important factors included within their models? The proof can only be demonstrated by the performance of the models during a period of time where they show reasonable results that compare to the real world. We are seeking knowledge of the world's climate in 100 years time as we make plans to counter the expected dangers. It is non sense to trust a model that does not work 20 years into the future for this purpose. The past fits are trivial and can always be obtained by curve fitting. The future fit reveals how good the model actually performs. That is where they are lacking. Eric, when I design an electrical network that is built and tested I expect it to perform as my model predicts. If I measured results that were seriously in error I would not recommend the circuit to others for the same application with known problems. Instead I would dig deeper into the model and devices until the results match the model fairly well. I have in fact done this on several occasions. Only then is the model useful to generate predictions of value.

I've wondered if the Oil industry isn't just trying to stall other forms of energy until the inventory of Oil is used up. This is also a race against mankind's interests in reducing greenhouse gasses. This is a rough estimate, but there are only about 40 years left of oil. Here are the calculations; Total world oil reservers is ~1,35 Trillion Barrels. Average daily oil consumption is estimated at ~85.6 million barrels/day. 1350GB / 0.0856GB/day = 15771 days of oil left. 15771 / 356 days/year = 44 years of oil left. +/- a couple of years. In addition, this is the approximate CO2 produced by that oil to be added on to the 400ppm we already have; 3.15 barrels produces 1.0 tonne of CO2. So in 44 years, we will have dumped 1350GB/3.15 TCo2/B = 428,571,428,571 TonsCO2 (429 GTons CO2). Every 15 GT CO2 will rise CO2 by 1.0ppm. 50ppm will rise global temps by 1C. 429/15=28.6ppm or ~0.6C gain from now until oil is used up in 40 years or so. Similar calculations on coal will yield a 1.30C change in the same time period, and combined with oil it give 1.58C global average temp change in 40 years. Coal us in the developing countries has increased exponentially so this really could be an underestimate. If there is a 2C rise in global average temperatures occurs by 2050, (in line with these estimates), 4C by 2100 is very likely and if coal use is accelerating, a 6C change is really likely.

Re: [Vo]:global warming?
What? Extinction of LIfe? My friend, I am here in the Philippines today, and my roof temperature is 48C. Last month it was over 50C. The sun is beating down on all our crops and quite obviously, they are not dead. What are you talking about? Let me tell you what a 42.8C temp will do. It will open up vast temperate areas of US land for triple cycle cropping, like we have here in thePhilippines. Crops grow faster in warmer climates. Food production will increase to meet the increase in demand from over 12 Billion people or more. There was a study I was aware of a few years back. It was commissioned by the UN before it was taken over by the Illuminati agenda. The study concluded that it would take the area the size of Texas to produce enough food for all the people of the world at that time - 2 Billion. Heck, we certainly will have 3 times Texas land area for cropping today. We can feed over 6 billion today with just the available farm land we have. There is no overpopulation nor Global Warming problem. That's a lie from the Illuminati elites because they want to depopulated the Earth for their own use alone. They want to reduce human population to 50 million. A few thousand elites being served by the rest as slave labor force. My friend, it would serve you well to refrain from hyperbole such as this. This will only serve to destroy your credibility in any discussion. Jojo PS.

To be honest, I think that is doubtful. Economic systems will not survive, food supplies will not provide, and warring political systems will doom the planet.

You have listed several good points and I will take them into consideration. My main issue with the current models is that new processes and interactions are being uncovered frequently which modify the behavior of the models in a significant manner. I ask what would be the output of a model at the end of this century that had all of the known and unknown pertinent factors taken into consideration? The recent acknowledgement of a new factor that allows for a 30 year pause in temperature rise is not an issue to be taken lightly. It also inflicts upon me the concern that there are likely more of these factors that remain hidden as of today. I suspect you have relied upon curve fitting routines in the past and realize that enough variables can be chosen and adjusted to match any set of input data as closely as desired as long as that data is sparse. You also probably realize that a polynomial fit to a high power order yields coefficients that vary depending upon the order of the polynomial chosen. Many combinations of coefficients will fit the input/output data over a restricted range. The problem shows up once you use those different coefficients to project the curve forwards into unknown future points. We are now clearly in witness to an example of the type of problem that I am speaking of. The old data apparently matched the functional relationship that the modelers have chosen to an excellent degree until the pause. They were confident that no pause would appear and many suggested that they would be worried if the pause lasted for more than about 5 years. As we know that time period came and passed and the pause continued which forced many of these guys to seek an explanation. Now, after several more years of unexpected pause, they have come up with their best explanation due to the 30 year Atlantic current cycle. Where was this cycle included during the long hockey stick period? Some might consider that the high rate of heating during the earlier period might have come about due to added heating by this same cycle. That certainly makes sense to me. So, I can not help but to question predictions that have been based upon a defective model. Furthermore, how confident can you possibly be that these guys now have all the important factors included within their models? The proof can only be demonstrated by the performance of the models during a period of

Re: [Vo]:global warming?
Jed, your comparison seems appropriate at first glance, except you forgot one thing. Actuarial Studies and Medicine are fields of science with solid mathematical,experimental and actual data. It is hard science that is refutable and falsiable and has stood the test of time. Global Warming and Weather forecasting is based on assumptions made in the modelling. The models used are all assumptions that are no more accurate that a 10 year old guessing what the weather will be like tommorrow. Supporters of Global Warming are only able to claim good results because of the aforementioned all-inclusive symptoms list. Everything is taken as proof of the theory.

This is common knowledge. You can learn about it in detail. You should not call this concept bullshit if you have not studied it. Frankly, you are out of line in this forum publishing such an ignorant dismissal. To be a little more specific, do you have the notion that an insurance company can tell you the year and month when you will die? That would be magic. Unless you happen to have a serious, terminal disease, no one can tell you that. But any insurance company can sell you a policy, and they can be sure that in the aggregate, their policies will make money, barring some major disaster such as 1918 avian influenza. I would also point out that short term weather forecasts are incredibly accurate these days, and the error ranges are well understood by forecasters. Everyone knows you can predict the weather in Georgia, but not in southern Pennsylvania.

If so, I can assure you that is not the case. Here are a few examples for you: 1. Joseph was a believer and was the 2nd in command in Egypt. He was rich in power, money and Glory 2. Abraham was very rich with thousands upon thousands of sheep and camels, and a household with 400 able-bodied fighting men. This guy had his own private army bigger than the army of many city states at that time. His men was able to defeat 4 kings and their armies. If he had 400 fighting men, the size of his household must be between 3000-5000 people. That is rich. 3. Job was the greatest man in the east. Job was from the area of Ur. The region we know as the fertile crescent - Shinar or Babylon - the cradle of civilization. So, Job was the richest man in the world at that time. When God was done blessing him, he was twice as rich. 4. Solomon had brass that could not be counted. Enough gold and silver to overlay all the surfaces of the large building - the temple he built.

Re: [Vo]:Polarized ECat Testers
Dave, you and I picked up on the most important phrase that others seems to have missed - Polarized Opinions. This by itself has got to refer to opinions of the testers, not the outside world. For why would the polarized opinions of the outside world suddenly make a difference in the release of the TIP2 report? The outside world opinion has always been polarized since the beginning, why make a difference now? especially in the context of the TIP2 release date?

It does concern me by the expression of Polarized opinions. Best case is for them to be referring to how the device operates instead of how well it works.

Reason for what? reason for not giving pre-statements about a timing or content of the report. Why would any polarized outside opinion be the reason for any delay in the timing of the release? or affect the content of the report? It seems clear. The testers can not agree on what to write. This can only mean some think it is positive, some think it is negative. They can't agree like a hang jury.

It seems the TIP2 testers are having a lot of disagreements; hence the delay in the release of the report. This does not bode well for the ECat. I have been one of a few that think too many warning flags have been seen lately regarding the ECat. Chances of it being a Scam has increased. I don't read it that way --- The response I received was that they realize there is a great amount of interest in the report, but that because of polarized opinions surrounding the LENR and E-Cat, it was not advisable to give any pre-statements about the content of timing or the report. The polarized opinions are those in the outside world, not within the team - which wants to get it right. And, quite correctly, say nothing to nobody until the report's out.
Re: [Vo]:Ignore Jojo Iznart's fairy tales about what e-catworld actually said, unless you enjoy being conned.
I don't know who you think the troll is but let me tell you one such technique trolls use. A Troll will saturate a forum with ridiculous, evidence-free ideas and wear down legitimate challenges to his ideas. We lost an emminent tried-and-true LENR researcher to the unrestrained unbriddled unfounded speculations of a troll. If he can not answer a challenge (a simple one at that), he resorts to this tactic of destroying the challenger instead of answering the challenge. . Then accuses the messenger of conning people. How exactly is this conning achieved when the full text of the document is available for everyone to see. This troll seems to think that my opinion has some magical hypnotic power to deceive Vortex people. Such low opinion of the people in Vortex. I provided a link to a report from e-catworld. One is free to offer his understanding of what the report means as Alan Fletcher has done. People disagree on how to interpret the text as Alain has done. A friendly discussion ensues. Where is the conning? Why get personal and accuse people of conning?

I have received an education in the tactics many trolls use. These tactics are common not just to trolls but to bloggers, journalists and politicians who attack science, from climate to cancer research. Some techniques are comically simple. Emotionally charged, yet evidence-free, accusations of scams, fraud and cover-ups are common. While they mostly lack credibility, such accusations may be effective at polarising debate and reducing understanding.

Re: [Vo]:Ignore Jojo Iznart's fairy tales about what e-catworld actually said, unless you enjoy being conned.
My friend, I quoted the original text. That was the first line in my original post. Maybe you should get a better email reader before you start accusing people of deliberate lies. The full text was there for everyone to see. I offered an opinion as to what I understand it to mean. Some offered their opinion. Everyone offered their opinion on what they think it means. Everyone's own opinion is a spin. Nothing extraordinary or sinister there. Need I remind you that I have been a big supporter of Rossi and the eCat. That I too, am eagerly awaiting the TIP2 report. I signed up for a 1 megawatt plant and home unit from the earliest days.
