It is a very compelling theory Frank, but I don't think it works out. --- Grimer <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:

I have a spring (coulomb force) seperating 2 steel plates (protons) Note that the space between the plates is open to the surroounding atmosphere and not sealed. The force required to move the plates closer together is very precisely calculated in air at 14.7 psi. Now if I were to place the entire apparatus under water where the pressure was raised to 100 psi would it make any difference in the force needed to compress the spring? The added pressure acts equally on all sides of the plates and so cancels out. Frank, as I understand it you see charge as relative to the background (beta-aether) rather like temperature. If we were to call protons hot at 71 degrees and electrons cold at 69 degrees then a hydrogen atom would be neutral at 70 degrees because it averages out. however if you seperated the particles / charges, having 10 electrons @ 69 degrees each on one side of a wall and 10 protons at 71 degrees each on the other, the charge imbalance shoud be 20, but the temperature difference is still only 2 degrees. IMHO it is the absolute difference in charge rather than the ratio that is important.
