I guess it was inevitable. Tom Bearden has weighed in on the recent STEORN incident.
See: http://www.cheniere.org/correspondence/072107.htm According to Bearden it would appear that the STEORN device may have suffered the fate of having been "...moved to the 'new' site with a new local vacuum dynamics." Just to clarify, Bearden's explanation is a tad more technical than what the above sentence would lead one to assume. Predictably, Bearden also speculated that "...the bad guys" may have adversely altered the machine's operation "...from a distance". It's clear that many in the Vortex group do not hold Bearden's research in high regard. Nevertheless, Bearden's concluding paragraphs, at least for me, seemed to capture the STEORN-KINETICA mishap in a provocatively stimulating way: "With high probability, one or the other – a natural change of local 'system to vacuum' interaction and dynamics, or an 'artificial' alteration of local 'system to vacuum' interaction with the Steorn machine – was what happened to cause Steorn's failed demo." The fact that it occurred with repeated change of the affected bearings in the machine shows that it was (again with high probability) not the bearings that were at fault. That means the environmental vacuum potential was indeed altered and different from what the machine is designed for." FWIW, Regards, Steven Vincent Johnson www.OrionWorks.com
