Wait a minute, what do you mean by a relativistic effect?

You mean permanent magnets are a challenge to current science?

Sorry to be such an ignoramus, but what is Puthoff's explanation of this non-collapsing phenomenon, which indeed contradicts classical electromagnetism (and was one of the main causes for inventing QM, and before that the semi-classical Bohr model)?
