Hi Jones, Keith,
I found a few more FTL papers listed under category FTL Phenomena, on Robert Neil Boyd's web site..
<http://www.rialian.com/rnboyd/ftl.htm>
..and two more papers by William D. Walker <http://arxiv.org/find/physics/1/au:+Walker_W/0/1/0/all/0/1> ,
AND, a search in arXiv.org using the term, "superluminal", in "Abstracts", of category "Physics" returns 1,142 hits. The first one is a *theoretical* paper by Modanese and Fontana. "Effect of Vacuum Energy Density on Graviton Propagation". What caught my eye with this paper is that just under equation 8 is stated that gravitons under certain conditions may have a wavelength of 10^25 cm. They state that is over 10^7 light years. If William Walker's superluminal experiments are true for near fields of electromagnetic waves then is it that much of a stretch to consider that a graviton's near field may also display FTL phenomena?
BTW, does anyone know how to turn off outgoing HTML with Eudora? Thanks.
Best, Colin

I can't blame anyone for disagreeing with this.
Yesterday, I would have disagreed also.
However, having had a little run at Google, there seems to be a fair number of "non-cranks" espousing this view. This one looks interesting:
